After Descending the Mountain, Seven Big Brothers Spoil Me - Chapter 311

Chapter 311: I, the Mischievous First Child of Sanqing Temple!
With a swift motion, Zhouzhou threw off the covers and leaped out of bed, hastily pulling Ye Lingfeng behind her without even bothering to put on her shoes.

With chubby arms outstretched, she shielded him and exclaimed anxiously, “You can’t do this, Ancestral Master! You mustn’t entertain such ideas!”

“The golden light of the Sharp Tongue Uncle is meant to protect himself. His work is perilous, and without the golden light, he could come to harm!”

Although the Sharp Tongue Uncle was prone to rudeness and childishness, always teasing her, and sometimes acting foolishly, he wasn’t a bad person.

She couldn’t bear the thought of him getting hurt.

With that in mind, she reluctantly handed over the bag she had been guarding so closely. Though she was still hesitant, she gritted her teeth and said, “Ancestral Master, take it! I can earn the money back. The important thing is that the Sharp Tongue Uncle stays safe. ”

As he looked at the daughter figure standing in front of him, Ye Lingfeng felt a warm surge in his heart.

Although Zhouzhou didn’t say it aloud, he knew she still cared for him!

She was just shy, introverted, and hesitant to express herself; he understood!

Moved, he embraced Zhouzhou. “Zhouzhou, you are so kind to me. I knew you still cared for me, didn’t you?”

As he leaned in to kiss her cheek, Zhouzhou tilted her head back, pressing her chubby arm against his head, and blinked her big eyes, pretending to be disdainful.

“No, I was just thinking that since I’ve already lost money, I can’t let go of such a generous benefactor like you.”

After saying this, when she saw his face darken, Zhouzhou’s eyes rolled mischievously, and she giggled, covering her mouth.

She couldn’t admit she was concerned about him; the Sharp Tongue Uncle would definitely get conceited.

Seeing this scene, An Ya couldn’t help but smile.

Qin Lie’s eyes deepened, but he didn’t say anything.

With a lift of his hand, the Ancestral Master took the money Zhouzhou had earned from Gu Yun Pavilion, instructing, “Zhouzhou, from now on, focus on selling talismans and capturing spirits honestly. While money can be transformed into merit, the amount gained this way is too little. The priority should be on revitalizing the sect. This way, your financial troubles may improve a bit, and you won’t have bad luck when you earn money in the future.”

Thinking about the lost money, Zhouzhou’s shoulders slumped, and she sighed, “I understand.”

She turned her head towards Qin Lie, opening her arms, and sniffled, “Daddy, hug.”

Qin Lie reached out and took her in his arms. Even if Ye Lingfeng was unwilling, he didn’t want to upset her at this moment, so he reluctantly let go.

Qin Lie held Zhouzhou steady, his hand stroking her little head.

Zhouzhou nestled on his shoulder, breathing in his scent, feeling a bit better.

At that moment, Grandma Qin knocked on the door and asked from outside, “How is she? Is Zhouzhou feeling any better? If not, let me cheer her up!”

Hearing her voice, Qin Lie walked over and opened the door.

Grandma Qin hurried to see Zhouzhou, relieved to see that she was finally showing some signs of improvement.

Qin Lie briefly explained the situation, and upon learning that her granddaughter had been struck by lightning because she was trying to earn money taking the shortcut, Grandma Qin felt even more distressed.

“I’ll transfer all the money in my name to Zhouzhou and never let her do such dangerous things again,” Grandma Qin said decisively.

She hadn’t been idle in her youth, and she had a fair amount of money herself.

Qin Lie waved his hand. “Mom, Zhouzhou has a deficiency in her fate of money. She shouldn’t have so much money on hand; it’s not good. Let’s wait until her financial fate improves before deciding.”

Right. Grandma Qin thought for a moment. “Then we’ll wait and give everything to Zhouzhou later.”

Upon hearing this, Zhouzhou shook her head, leaned over, and planted a kiss on her cheek, her voice soft, “It’s okay. I’ll earn it myself! Grandma, spend your money on yourself, indulge in some delicious food, buy some nice clothes.”

It’s okay to earn money slowly; safety comes first.

Thinking of the two times she was struck by lightning, Zhouzhou’s small body shuddered, her face twisted into a grimace. She never wanted to be struck by lightning again.

It didn’t hurt physically, but emotionally, it hurt so much.

Every time, it was a blow to her finances. She didn’t want this cursed financial fate anymore.

Zhouzhou gloomily rested on Qin Lie’s shoulder, her lips trembling like small waves.

She looked pitiful.

Seeing this scene, Ye Lingfeng sighed lightly, flicked her forehead, watching as the small onion seedling happily swayed, and finally felt a bit better.

He wondered when Zhouzhou’s financial fate would be completely resolved. He still had several gold mines waiting for her.

Seeing the little girl looking gloomy, everyone felt a bit sorry for her.

On the side, Yun You blinked and suddenly tugged at Mu Xuan’s sleeve, whispering, “Senior Brother, can Chubby Girl’s financial fate be changed? Isn’t it destined? Who were you talking to just now? Who is this Ancestral Master?”

Mu Xuan: “…”

Looking at the third junior brother, whose clear eyes revealed a hint of naivety, Mu Xuan opened his mouth, suddenly unsure of how to explain.

He glanced at him and let out a soft sigh.

It wasn’t easy for this silly child to grow up like this.

Unaware of the confusion of her third senior brother, Zhouzhou was leaning weakly in Qin Lie’s arms at this moment.

When Qin Er saw this scene upon returning with Qin Feng and Huo Ji’an, he hurried over, curious, “Caicai, what’s wrong with you?”

Huo Ji’an also pouted unhappily, “Chubby Girl, why didn’t you tell me you were taking a day off today? If I had known, I wouldn’t have gone either. Eating isn’t as enjoyable without you.”

He thought she was in another car this morning, but only found out when they arrived at the kindergarten that she was taking a day off today.

There was no one to pick him up after school.

He turned to Ye Lingfeng, snorting lightly, “Uncle Ye, your fifty dollars for today is gone. I gave it to Brother Dafu.”

Qin Er proudly raised her chin and explained, “I didn’t snatch your business. I just happened to be standing at the gate after school, so I brought him back on my way.”

Only then did Ye Lingfeng remember that he had totally forgotten about this. Although he didn’t lack that fifty dollars, he still apologized, “Sorry, I was wrong this time. If I’m busy in the future, I’ll find someone to pick you up.”

Huo Ji’an wasn’t angry, just a little upset. His dad never picked him up, and he thought the rented dad didn’t want him either.

He didn’t expect him to apologize.

His dad never did that; he always blamed him for not being sensible and thought there was always a driver to pick him up.

Hearing Ye Lingfeng’s apology, he was stunned for a moment, his lips curling up slightly, then he suppressed it, raising his chin proudly, “Well, just this once, I’ll forgive you.”

After saying that, afraid that he would be discovered, he quickly changed the subject, “Chubby Girl, why are you unhappy? And what’s wrong with your hand? How did it become so swollen?”

He looked at the bandage on her hand and asked.

Only then did Qin Feng notice it, hurriedly walking over and gently blowing on her hand, asking concernedly, “Does it hurt?”

He blew it ticklishly, and Zhouzhou shrank back, giggling, “It doesn’t hurt. I have thick skin. Master said I’m the most resilient among his disciples!”

As she spoke, she arrogantly shook her little head.

Qin Feng paused, blinked, and hesitated.

What was there to be proud of? Shouldn’t they be figuring out how not to get beaten? What kind of skill is resilience to beatings?

Upon hearing this, Mu Xuan chuckled and pinched his brow.

Despite being the youngest and a girl, Zhouzhou was actually the one who got punished the most.

There was no other way; this child was just too mischievous.

Yun You grinned and leaned over, “I’m the second most resilient!”

“That’s right!”

The two idiots bumped their heads together, counting how many beatings they had endured over the years, and occasionally comparing who had suffered more.

Silly.

Everyone shook their heads.

In the end, Zhouzhou won the most beatings by stealing and eating every day, surpassing Yun You with one more reason to be beaten.

But it made her proud.

Yun You also kept praising her, “Chubby Girl, you are truly the most mischievous first child of our Sanqing Temple!”

“Yeah! I’m the most mischievous!”

Everyone: “…”

As the two were talking, Yun You’s phone suddenly rang. He looked at the message on the screen and said, “Oh.”

“Little Eight, Big Brother said the senior master who saved him before is here. Do you want to meet him?”

“Yes!” Zhouzhou’s eyes lit up with curiosity, not sure if it was the person she was thinking of.

Seeing her nod, Yun You directly made a video call.

A person dressed in Daoist robes appeared on the screen.

Zhouzhou looked at the person, her small mouth opening in surprise.

It’s really him!
