After Descending the Mountain, Seven Big Brothers Spoil Me - Chapter 33

Chapter 33: Striking It Rich!
That’s what they say, but he doesn’t look like someone who got injured from a collision. Zhouzhou looked at him with a strange expression, not understanding why he would lie on the ground and scream in pain when he clearly wasn’t hurt. Unable to comprehend, she crouched down and asked, “Grandpa, do you want to get up first? You’re squashing the ants on the ground.”

Liu Hanqiu choked, clearly not expecting the little girl to be unconcerned about him and instead caring about a few ants. His eyes widened, “Little girl, you’ve bumped into me like this, and you don’t care about me at all?”

But he was clearly fine. Zhouzhou couldn’t understand and stared at him for a while before suddenly realizing something. This grandpa must have a mental problem! Otherwise, she couldn’t think of any reason why he would behave like this. Thinking about it, she looked at him with a hint of sympathy and asked, “Then, grandpa, how do you want me to care for you?”

That’s more like it. Liu Hanqiu continued to wail, holding his chest, and said, “Look, I’m this old, and you’ve bumped me like this. I definitely need to take medicine first, preferably the pink ones, sweet to eat, and they’ll make my body better!”

Huh? How did he know she had pills on her? However…

“Grandpa, are you sure you want pink ones? How about I give you a blue one instead?”

As she said that, she poured out a pile of pills from the porcelain bottle, colorful like candies. Liu Hanqiu’s eyes lit up, and he firmly shook his head, “No, I want pink ones.”

“Are you sure?”

“Yes!” He had been yearning for these pills for a long time.

“Fine.” Seeing his determined attitude, Zhouzhou sighed and couldn’t help shaking her head, thinking he must have a mental problem; otherwise, why would he want to eat this? She selected a pink pill and was about to put it in his mouth when a hand suddenly stopped her.

It was Qin Ren.

Qin Ren pinched his brow in frustration, looking helplessly at the old man lying on the ground and shouted, “Grandpa Liu, would you like to get up and talk first?”

They know each other?

Surprise flashed across Zhouzhou’s face as she looked at them in confusion. When Liu Hanqiu was exposed, he muttered to himself, “How boring,” stood up, dusted off his clothes, and all the pretended weakness from earlier disappeared. His gaze was sharp as he looked at Zhouzhou with a smile, “Little girl, you knocked me down earlier, and we agreed that you would give me this pill. You can’t go back on your word.”

Zhouzhou nodded. Although she didn’t understand what he was playing earlier, seeing that he knew her scientist Eldest Brother, she wasn’t stingy and handed him the pill.

As soon as Liu Hanqiu took it, he sniffed it and furrowed his brows, “This smell is not right.”

Upon hearing this, Qin Ren massaged his temples, knowing that it was because of this matter. Grandpa Liu was truly a medical enthusiast. When he showed him the medicine that Zhouzhou had given to Qin Feng earlier, he was determined to keep some for himself, but Qin Ren didn’t agree. He never expected that Liu Hanqiu, the esteemed Doctor Liu, would resort to such a trick to deceive a child. Only he could do such a thing.

Qin Ren inwardly criticized him and, recalling Zhouzhou’s reaction when she gave him the pill just now, asked, “Zhouzhou, what medicine is this?”

“It’s Dead Pill,” Zhouzhou answered. Then she looked up curiously at Liu Hanqiu and asked, “Grandpa, do you have something sad that you can’t let go of? Why don’t you want to live anymore?”

Dead Pill? Liu Hanqiu was startled, his hand trembled, and he almost dropped the pill. He was dumbfounded. He just wanted the medicine that Qin Ren had given him earlier. How did it turn into Dead Pill?

Qin Ren was also surprised, feeling relieved in his heart. Fortunately, he stopped him just now; otherwise, it would have been a big problem.

He continued to ask, “Then what did you give Little Feng to drink earlier?”

How did she know that she was treating Seventh Elder Brother?

Zhouzhou instantly became alert, took two steps back, tightly hugged her head, and assumed a defensive posture.

Seeing her reaction, Qin Ren looked at her with confusion.

The siblings were at a stalemate, and Liu Hanqiu couldn’t wait any longer. He squatted down on the ground, his gaze level with Zhouzhou’s, and coaxed, “Little girl, your grandpa and I are good friends. I’ve also treated your Seventh Elder Brother. I heard that this medicine you have is quite effective. I want to take one back for research. Don’t worry, I’ll pay for it. Consider it my purchase, okay?”

That day, Qin Ren brought that medicine for him to try. He sniffed it and felt refreshed. He took a small taste, intending to identify the ingredients, but unexpectedly felt much more comfortable. The fatigue from not sleeping well last night instantly dissipated.

He had only eaten a little bit, so it would have remarkable effects if he consumed the whole thing.

He was excited, but couldn’t persuade Qin Ren to give it to him no matter what.

So he made a copy of the prescription based on what he identified, but the effect of the medicine was less than ten percent. Tossing and turning all night, he couldn’t resist coming here.

Just now, he heard the little girl mention the names of the medicines at the door. Half of them were ingredients needed to make that medicine. That’s when he realized it actually belonged to her.

Then he acted out this little act on his own, but he almost ended up giving himself away.

This joke has gone too far.

Upon hearing him mention payment, Zhouzhou’s eyes brightened. “Deal!”

She took out a blue pill and handed it to him. “Here.”

Liu Hanqiu sniffed it. The smell was the same, but he asked, “Why is it blue this time?”

Wasn’t it pink before? Did the formula change?

Zhouzhou confidently said, “Because I added blue flowers to it to make it look nice!”

Liu Hanqiu: “…”

He couldn’t have imagined it, no matter how much he guessed. Unbelievable.

After realizing that, he noticed something and widened his eyes. “You made this medicine?!”

“Yeah.” Zhouzhou saw that he took the medicine without mentioning payment, and she wasn’t very happy. “Grandpa, do you want to buy it or not? If not, give it back to me. Seventh Elder Brother doesn’t have enough to eat.”

“I’ll buy it.” Liu Hanqiu immediately put away the medicine and looked at the porcelain bottle in her hand, remembering the other medicines. He asked, “What else do you have? I’ll buy them all.”

Anyone who can refine such a miraculous medicine shouldn’t have anything inferior, right?

Hearing him say he wanted to buy them all, Zhouzhou became delighted. She quickly poured out the medicines again and pointed at them, saying, “This is the Revitalizing Pill. It can save someone as long as there’s a breath left.”

“This one is the Oblivion Pill. Eating it will cause memory loss.”

“The Longevity Pill. It can extend one’s lifespan.”

“The Fasting Pill. Eating it means you don’t need to eat anything.”

“The Stinky Pill. After eating it, you’ll release very smelly farts.”

“The Mighty Pill. It can make you very strong, but it only lasts for ten minutes. I’m still trying to find a way to extend the effect.”

“And this is the Good Luck Pill. Eating it can bring wealth.” As she said that, she casually picked one up and put it in her mouth.

If you eat or wear something that brings wealth, it will definitely work. Look, a business opportunity has come knocking on your door.

Thinking about the big order he received today, Zhouzhou was extremely happy, introducing each pill to him one by one.

Various types, strange and unusual, many of which Liu Hanqiu had never heard or seen before, but he was very curious about their effects.

He had a hunch that this little girl wasn’t lying.

Just based on the pill he held in his hand now, wasn’t the effect already miraculous?

“Alright, I’ll buy them all.” He noted down the names and effects one by one and waved his hand confidently.

Zhouzhou’s eyes became even brighter. She counted and then curved her eyebrows and eyes, making a “two” sign with her chubby hand, happily saying, “Twenty yuan!”

One pill for two yuan, so ten pills would be twenty yuan.

She struck it rich!
