After Descending the Mountain, Seven Big Brothers Spoil Me - Chapter 249

Chapter 249: Sleeping on a Bed of Gold
In fact, it’s almost the same, but of course, it’s not stolen, but bought.

With limited time, Ye Lingfeng didn’t have time to move his mountain of gold, so he went directly to a gold shop. As soon as he entered, he asked them to pack everything.

The shop assistants were shocked, looking at him with suspicion, wondering if he had gone mad. It was only when Ye Lingfeng took out a black gold card that they realized he wasn’t joking, so they quickly started packing.

Finding them too slow, Ye Lingfeng directly went to the trunk of the car and brought a burlap bag, asking them to put everything in it.

It was the bag he used before when he accompanied Zhouzhou to set up a stall. He had forgotten to take it out, and it came in handy today.

However, the shop assistants found his actions even more strange. Are wealthy people nowadays so arrogant that they put gold in burlap bags?

Recalling that scene, An Ya couldn’t help but laugh. Seeing Zhouzhou sitting there happily, she couldn’t help but smile too.

At least some goodwill was restored.

Qin Lie watched for a while and walked over, a bit of a headache. He picked up the little girl and carried her.

Zhouzhou didn’t want to let go of the gold. She clung to it with her chubby feet and held onto a lot of gold, refusing to let go.

Qin Lie’s brow twitched as he looked at her, who seemed to want to bury herself in gold. He pursed his lips, not holding her, but instead put her on the nearby sofa and picked up the gold on the floor, placing it on the coffee table.

He cautioned, “Sit on the sofa and count. The floor is cold.”

“It’s okay, my heart is warm!” Zhouzhou smiled with her eyebrows and eyes curved.

Seeing this, Qin Lie couldn’t help but smile.

Ye Lingfeng’s unexpected move made Xi Mo and Xi Yan’s gifts seem less substantial.

Thinking of the box of banknotes, Xi Yan couldn’t help but hide them behind, feeling the embarrassment of not having money for the first time.

It felt really uncomfortable.

Xi Mo walked calmly to Zhouzhou’s side and sat down, opening the box.

Zhouzhou blinked instinctively as her eyes were dazzled, and she couldn’t look away. Excitedly, she exclaimed, “Big gold ingots!”

Inside the box were dozens of small goldfish, each a 100g gold bar, neatly arranged in five layers.

When Zhouzhou loosened her grip on the gold jewelry in her hands, Little chubby paws clung to the gold bars and refused to let go. Her face also approached and rubbed against them, saying, “Woo, they’re all gold!”

She lay on the sofa, holding her breath, her little belly not moving, and said, “Uncle, put the gold on me! I want to hold it!”

She wiggled her chubby little feet, urging Xi Mo.

Xi Mo’s lips couldn’t help but curl up. He cooperatively took a gold bar and placed it on her round belly, and then stopped moving.

Zhouzhou blinked curiously, looking at him.

Xi Mo raised his hand and pulled her up, closed the box, and stuffed it into her arms. “Hold it like this, the gold won’t fall.”

That’s right!

Zhouzhou’s eyes lit up, “Uncle is so smart!”

Xi Mo’s lips curved imperceptibly, and he reached out to touch her head. “Besides gold, what else do you like?”

Zhouzhou stared at him intently and said in a sweet and childish voice, “I also like uncle!”

Xi Mo was slightly taken aback, looking at her, his gaze softened a bit.

Seeing this scene, Ye Lingfeng felt unhappy. He puffed up his face and leaned in, his tail wagging behind him. “What else? What else?”

He stared at her eagerly, waiting for her to mention him.

Unexpectedly, Zhouzhou opened her little mouth and excitedly said, “There’s also dad, grandpa, grandma, eldest uncle, eldest aunt, second elder uncle… mom, and Wangcai!”

She rattled off a list of names, speaking clearly and quickly. However, after mentioning Wangcai, she had nothing else to say.

Ye Lingfeng’s eyes searched desperately, and when she didn’t speak, he could only hint, “What about me?”

He raised his hand and pointed at himself.

But Zhouzhou acted as if she didn’t see it, tilting her little head and asking, “Is there someone else?”

She counted again by bending her fingers, looking left and right, but she didn’t look at him. “No, they’re all there.”

Now, Ye Lingfeng’s heart shattered in an instant. He couldn’t keep up the smile on his face anymore, his mouth pouting, feeling like crying without tears.

Why was even Wangcai included, but he wasn’t considered!

Zhouzhou giggled, covering her mouth, a mischievous glint flashing in her eyes, letting him feel frustrated!

Hmph, she was an honest person, an honest person never owed others, nor would she let others owe her.

She had to keep the accounts clear!

Seeing him looking over, she immediately put on a serious face, blinked her eyes, pretending as if nothing had happened.

She agilely jumped off the sofa, took a basin, and swept all the jewelry on the coffee table into it. With one hand carrying the basin and the other holding a box, she happily ran to her room upstairs, huffing and puffing. She took out all the gold bars from the box and spread them on the bed.

She was going to sleep on gold today!

In the living room, Ye Lingfeng sat there dejectedly. Although there was an element of exaggeration in his acting, he felt somewhat disappointed.

Zhouzhou counted everyone but him.

He couldn’t help but wonder if she really didn’t care about him at all.

Seeing through his thoughts, An Ya felt helpless and floated over, saying, “Zhouzhou was just teasing you. You’re unhappy, but have you ever teased Zhouzhou?”

Ye Lingfeng was stunned for a moment and felt somewhat guilty. “But I was just joking.”

“Zhouzhou was joking too. Didn’t you see that?”

The little girl was cunning. How could she not know what answer he wanted? If she truly didn’t care about him, she wouldn’t have bothered talking to him or mentioning so many things. She was just playfully teasing him.

An Ya shrugged and said, “You see, you took it seriously, and she’s just a child.”

Children have simple thoughts and straightforward personalities. They don’t understand so many twists and turns. He either gave the little girl strange nicknames every three days, or made fun of her, or played tricks on her. How could she possibly like him?

Anyway, no matter what, those four words, “Sharp Tongue Uncle,” were indeed true.

Ye Lingfeng stroked his chin and thought for a moment. So that’s how it was?

What else could it be?

Xi Yan glanced at him, seeing that he had finally understood, snorted lightly, and, for the sake of An Ya, who was present, didn’t provoke him further. He remembered that he still hadn’t given him the money from the box, so he carried it and walked upstairs.

As soon as he pushed open the door, he saw the little girl with her plump little bottom sticking out, her head buried under the bed, and half of her body outside. Her chubby paws occasionally reached out, grabbing the jewelry and stuffing them under the bed.

She was just like a squirrel hoarding food for the winter.

There was even a layer of gold bars spread on the bed, like tiled bricks.

What a luxurious display.

He was extremely happy and couldn’t help but take out his phone to capture this scene.

Upon hearing the sound, Zhouzhou immediately turned her head and saw him. A guarded expression flashed in her eyes, and she quickly crawled out from under the bed. She hastily kicked the remaining gold jewelry inside and pretended as if nothing had happened. Blinking her eyes, she said, “Younger Uncle, why are you here?”

Xi Yan touched his chin. He hadn’t intended to do anything, but seeing her so nervous, he suddenly developed some mischievous ideas. He shook his phone teasingly and said meaningfully, “Just now, I captured everything.”

As he spoke, his gaze drifted towards under the bed.

Sure enough, Zhouzhou panicked. She quickly extended her little arm and shook her head vigorously, her head bobbing like a drum, “No, no, you didn’t see anything!”

“Is that so? But I have the photos.”

Zhouzhou also remembered this incident. She stared at him for a while, then lowered her head and asked, “What does Younger Uncle want to do?”

“According to the rules of the martial world, when we meet, we split everything in half.” Seeing the little girl instantly pained by his words, he restrained his amusement. “Considering that I’m currently relying on you for support, I won’t take so much. Just come here and give me a kiss.”

She had given his elder brother many kisses earlier, making him extremely envious.

Upon hearing this, Zhouzhou breathed a sigh of relief and realized that he was teasing her. A bright smile appeared on her face as she pounced over and hugged him, starting to shower him with kisses. “Younger Uncle is so good! I like Younger Uncle the most!”

Xi Yan was overwhelmed by her flattery and left with a satisfied heart, also giving her a box of money in passing.

Looking at the pile of money shining brightly, Zhouzhou jumped happily.

Her gaze fell under the bed, fearing that someone else might discover her little treasure trove. She thought for a moment, found a wooden board from outside, took out a cinnabar pen, and grasped the pen with her little fist, starting to write crookedly on it…
