After Descending the Mountain, Seven Big Brothers Spoil Me - Chapter 233

Chapter 233: Mother and Daughter Reunited
The living room suddenly fell silent for three seconds. Zhouzhou immediately opened her eyes and saw a person with beautiful eyebrows and eyes standing in front of her. The person had rolled up sleeves, holding a stick in her hand, and wore a frowning expression, showing no signs of gentleness.

After a moment of daze, Zhouzhou realized her mistake and said, “I’m sorry for summoning the wrong spirit.”

As she spoke, she was about to take the Reincarnation Talisman and send her away.

However, Ye Lingfeng quickly spoke up, “Wait, Zhouzhou!”

Zhouzhou’s hand stopped abruptly, and she turned her head to look at him with confusion. She saw him looking at the person in her hand with excitement.

An Ya took advantage of the opportunity and floated away from Zhouzhou’s hand, keeping a distance of eight feet, her face filled with fear. Who was this little girl with such strength

Feeling a gaze on her, she turned her head and was instantly stunned. She blurted out, “Darling?”

“Yaya!” Ye Lingfeng quickly walked over, wanting to hug her.

An Ya also instantly threw the stick in her hand to the side, still catching it with her foot, making it land steadily without making any noise. Her movements were swift and decisive, as if she had done it thousands of times before.

At the same time, her facial expression instantly changed, exuding a gentle and charming aura. With teary eyes, she looked at Ye Lingfeng and suddenly became fragile and weak.

Qin Lie looked at this scene and subconsciously glanced at Zhouzhou, suddenly understanding where the little troublemaker’s acting talent came from.

She really was An Ya.

Zhouzhou looked at her, tilting her head, recalling the words she said when she first arrived. Was she fighting?

Did she hear it right?

Curiously, she stared at An Ya, her mind filled with question marks.

As An Ya was now a spirit, Ye Lingfeng naturally couldn’t hug her. He passed through her body, leaving An Ya empty-handed.

With eye contact, both of them remembered the current situation and were filled with sadness for a moment.

An Ya looked at Ye Lingfeng, her gaze sweeping from head to toe, and said with relief, “Darling, seeing you well, I can rest in peace.”

He was the only thing she was worried about before she died.

Remembering something, she touched her belly in a panic and said anxiously, “Lingfeng, go find our child. Du Wan took her away. Hurry…”

Recalling the scene after her death, An Ya became extremely anxious.

At that time, her spirit followed Du Wan to a mountain and watched as she threw their child into the icy snowy ground, unable to pick her up no matter what.

Thinking back to her helplessness at that time, her aura began to surge.

Oh no.

Zhouzhou frowned, immediately walked up to her, and stuck a soul-calming symbol on her body. Seeing the dissipation of the malevolent aura around her, Zhouzhou finally breathed a sigh of relief.

Ye Lingfeng also sensed that something was wrong and quickly said, “Yaya, don’t worry. I’ve already found our daughter, and it’s Zhouzhou.”

As he spoke, he pointed at Zhouzhou.

An Ya looked over and locked eyes with a pair of almond-shaped eyes.

She was instantly stunned. This formidable little girl was her daughter?

The one she gave birth to?

She… was too amazing!

She couldn’t help but blurt out these words, and Grandma Qin, who overheard, couldn’t help but burst into laughter.

She had just finished listening to Ye Lingfeng’s and her own story. In Ye Lingfeng’s words, An Ya was a gentle girl. Although there were some differences now, her eyes were clear, and she seemed like a good child.

Because An Ya looked similar to her granddaughter, Grandma Qin couldn’t help but develop a favorable impression of her. She quickly said, “Come, have a seat and let’s talk. Have something to eat.”

As she spoke, she paused, realizing that An Ya was a spirit and probably couldn’t eat their food. She looked for help from Zhouzhou with her eyes.

Zhouzhou understood and drew a circle on the fruit tray, then threw a fire symbol into it. In the next moment, there was an additional box of fruits in front of An Ya.

An Ya’s eyes lit up, looking at this scene with curiosity. When she saw Zhouzhou’s eyes, she couldn’t help but feel a sense of pride. Her daughter was indeed amazing.

Zhouzhou felt a bit embarrassed under her gaze, so she brought a chair and placed it behind An Ya. Then she quickly ran to Qin Lie and climbed onto his leg, placing his big hand over her eyes. Unable to resist her curiosity, she quietly opened his fingers and looked at An Ya.

Seeing this scene, An Ya was a little puzzled. Wasn’t she her daughter? Why wasn’t she close to Ye Lingfeng but had a good relationship with this unfamiliar man?

Seeing through her confusion, Grandma Qin explained the situation. “On the day Zhouzhou was born, she was thrown down the mountain by Du Wan. The abbot of the temple on the mountain found Zhouzhou and raised her. Zhouzhou only came down the mountain last year and saved my life. I really like Zhouzhou, so I adopted her. Her household registration is under the name of my youngest son, Qin Lie. We also just found out about her identity a few days ago.”

So that’s how it is.

An Ya suddenly realized, and her expression became serious. She bowed to them and said, “Thank you all for taking care of Zhouzhou.”

Ye Lingfeng also followed with a bow.

Since learning about Zhouzhou’s identity, he hadn’t sincerely thanked the Qin family. Every day, he only thought about how to take Zhouzhou back.

Speaking of it, they indeed owed them a thank you.

Grandma Qin waved her hand and said, “Get up quickly and have a seat. Zhouzhou has also helped us a lot, and we all like her. If anyone should be thanked, it should be you for bringing Zhouzhou into this world.”

Upon hearing this, An Ya smiled and glanced at Ye Lingfeng, who was eagerly watching Zhouzhou. She probably understood what was going on and didn’t say anything.

She followed An Ya’s gaze, her eyes fixed on Zhouzhou, and her gaze suddenly softened. She beckoned and said, “Child, can you come closer so I can take a look at you?”

Zhouzhou looked up at Qin Lie, who nodded. She then jumped down from his lap and walked up to An Ya, looking up at her with her little face.

Her big round eyes were very similar to An Ya’s.

An Ya’s heart instantly softened. This was her daughter.

She looked at Zhouzhou and spoke gently, “Your name is Zhouzhou, right?”

Zhouzhou nodded, “Yeah, my full name is Qin Caicai, which means ‘my dad’s treasure.’ It sounds nice, doesn’t it?”

Seeing the little girl’s joyful expression when she mentioned her name, An Ya couldn’t help but smile. “It sounds nice, and it’s also auspicious.”

Zhouzhou’s eyes brightened, and she instantly became more affectionate towards An Ya. She no longer felt unfamiliar and exclaimed loudly, “I like you!”

An Ya also smiled.

Although she had become a mother, she hadn’t been involved in the process of raising a child, so she didn’t know how to interact with Zhouzhou. But seeing the little girl’s reaction, it was clear that she was a fan of wealth.

Understanding this, An Ya couldn’t help but ask, “Zhouzhou, can you call me ‘mom’?”

She didn’t even get a chance to hear her say “mom” before she left.

Thinking about this, An Ya felt a bit sad.

Seeing her like that, Zhouzhou grabbed her hand and called out crisply, “Mom!”

“Yes!” An Ya was delighted and replied loudly, looking at Zhouzhou with happiness.

At this moment, Ye Lingfeng also approached, taking advantage of the situation. “Zhouzhou, call me ‘dad.'”

But Zhouzhou didn’t fall for it. She turned her little face away and pouted, refusing to call him that.

Seeing this, An Ya couldn’t help but burst into laughter. She knew that they had only recently met, so it was normal for Zhouzhou not to call him that. She didn’t force it either.

Looking at the little girl, she asked the question she cared about the most, “Zhouzhou, have you been doing well all these years?”

“I’ve been doing great!” Zhouzhou turned her head, nodded her little head, and twisted her chubby fingers. “Master, Big Senior Brother, Second Senior Brother, Third Senior Brother… They all dote on me. I eat a lot, and Master Uncle always keeps steamed buns warm for me. If I’m hungry at night, I can go and eat…”

“Grandpa, Grandma, Dad, and the others are also very good to me. Since I came down from the mountain, I’ve never gone hungry.”

The little girl smiled brightly, looking very satisfied, but An Ya couldn’t help but feel a bit sad when she heard that. Her daughter should at least have enough to eat, even if she couldn’t be wealthy. But it seemed like having enough to eat was still a luxury.

When she heard that Zhouzhou was coaxed down the mountain because she ate too much, she couldn’t help but say, “As a little child, how much can you eat?”

She felt heartbroken.

However, Zhouzhou wrinkled her little nose. What did she mean? Did she look down on her?

She straightened her small chest proudly and said, “I can eat a lot! I can eat eight bowls in one meal! I can eat five meals a day!”

Don’t underestimate children!

An Ya: “…”

She silently looked at Ye Lingfeng and didn’t say anything.

Indeed, they couldn’t afford to support her.

Gathering her thoughts, she was about to speak when her spirit suddenly flickered, as if being pulled by something, and she flew backward abruptly.

Zhouzhou’s eyes narrowed, and her small body quickly dashed out. She grabbed An Ya’s arm and used the momentum to fly behind her. With a light shout, she kicked her feet forcefully in the air.

There was a faint sound of a rope breaking in the air, and An Ya’s body instantly stopped.

Zhouzhou looked behind her, holding the broken rope in her hand, and frowned. “Strange, why do you have a soul-binding rope on you, Mom?”
