After Descending the Mountain, Seven Big Brothers Spoil Me - Chapter 954

Chapter 954: Qin Dafu is Extremely Generous Today
Grandma Qin was immediately amused by her words.

Grandpa Qin also chuckled, saying, “Take care of yourself. You are also Grandpa and Grandma’s most precious little baby. Only when you return safely will our hearts finally be at ease.”

“Mm-hmm,” Zhouzhou nodded, then glanced at the time. “Grandpa, Grandma, Dad, I have to hang up now. I haven’t finished eating yet, and I have to get back to work soon. Otherwise, I’ll go hungry.”

Upon hearing this, Grandma Qin hurriedly said, “Go ahead. There’s no need to call home if nothing’s urgent. Just make sure to eat more and get some rest when you can.”

Grandma Qin’s heart ached terribly. Of course, she wished she could speak to her little granddaughter every day, but knowing that it would take time from Zhouzhou’s eating and sleeping made her reluctant to ask for more.

“Mm-hmm, I know,” Zhouzhou responded before reluctantly hanging up the phone.

Zhao Xinghua, overhearing her words, reached over and gently patted her head. The little girl had truly grown up, and her maturity made him feel both touched and heartbroken. He could only hope that this ordeal would be over soon.

Zhouzhou looked at him and suddenly remembered something. “Uncle Zhao, did my dad tell you about that matter?”

She was referring to the situation with Country A.

Zhao Xinghua immediately understood. His expression darkened, and there was a trace of killing intent in his eyes. He nodded and said, “Yes, he did.”

He gritted his teeth and continued, “I’ve already sent people to gather evidence. I’ll deal with them once this work is over.”

Ye Lingfeng had said the same thing.

Zhouzhou nodded. “Alright.”

Zhao Xinghua did not disturb her further, allowing her to eat her meal in peace. “Aren’t there other doctors who came to assist? You should teach them where to inject the needles. That way, it might lighten your workload a bit.”

Zhouzhou continued eating as she responded, “I’ve already taught them.”

She had shown them on the very first day.

But there were simply too many patients, and she couldn’t keep up with the workload.

Moreover, the specific treatment methods she used weren’t suitable for everyone, and some special cases needed her to adjust the approach. Therefore, her rest time had been significantly reduced, which was unavoidable.

Zhao Xinghua understood and sighed lightly.

“When this is over, I’ll give you a big reward.”

Upon hearing this, Zhouzhou’s eyes lit up, her cheeks stuffed with food, and she could only look up at him expectantly.

Zhao Xinghua immediately understood what that look meant and chuckled. “There will be a bonus!”

At that, the little Chubby Girl broke into a wide grin, her eyes lighting up with delight.

Looking at her, Zhao Xinghua couldn’t help but smile.

What a little money-obsessed girl! Even at a time like this, she was only thinking about money.

As he watched her, he suddenly realized something.

The chubby little girl’s face seemed to have lost quite a bit of fat.

Thinking about the grueling pace she had been working at lately, his heart ached.

Look at what this poor child had been through. She’d even lost weight from exhaustion. He couldn’t bring himself to call her “Little Chubby Girl” anymore. It was heartbreaking to watch.

The bonus, it must be doubled!

This time, he wouldn’t wait for her to ask for it—he’d apply for extra himself.

With that thought, he hurried off.

Zhouzhou was about to start on her ninth bowl of food when she hesitated and glanced at the remaining lunchboxes, wondering if her eating so much meant there would be nothing left for others.

At the thought, her little chubby hand withdrew, but before she could make another decision, someone handed her a lunchbox.

She looked up and saw a nurse smiling at her.

“Eat more, don’t worry about us.”

They all knew how hard Zhouzhou had been working.

“Also, the director just said that a new batch of supplies arrived today, all donated by the Qin family. There’s more than enough to feed everyone in the city.”

The Qin family? That’s from her dad!

Zhouzhou’s eyes lit up. Upon hearing this, she felt relieved, and happily took the lunchbox to continue eating.

She missed home so much—she missed Grandpa and Grandma, she missed her dad, her uncles and aunts, and her brothers, especially Little Skinny Pole…

She wondered how they were doing.

They were probably fine, just worried about her.

Qin Lie was preparing new supplies when the door suddenly knocked.

He called out, “Come in,” and a few of his nephews trooped inside.

Qin Bei, holding a piggy bank, ran up to him and said, “Uncle, this is our donation. Use it to buy more food for Zhouzhou.”

The others were also carrying piggy banks and handed them to him.

Qin Lie looked at them in confusion. “Why are you giving me money?”

Qin Dong replied, “We calculated it. The supplies you donated are worth over a billion, and that’s just for one day’s supply. You must be under a lot of pressure, so we want to help bear some of the burden.”

“Right,” Qin Bei nodded. “Second brother said, Uncle is the one who earns the most money in our family, so the better you’re doing, the better the family will do. You can’t go down.”

Hearing this, Qin Lie looked toward Qin Er.

Qin Er, carrying a burlap sack, dropped it at his feet. When he opened it, it was filled with loose change—everything from one hundred yuan bills to coins, adding up to tens of thousands of yuan.

Qin Er said, “Uncle, take this money. Use it however you need.”

How did Qin Dafu become so generous today?

Qin Lie raised an eyebrow and asked, “Are you sure?”

Qin Er clutched his chest, feigning pain. “I don’t want to part with it, so hurry up and take it before I change my mind.”

Other than his scholarship and competition prize money, the rest had been saved in the bank. He didn’t want to touch that. The rest was from his street vendor earnings.

If it weren’t for Zhouzhou, he wouldn’t be this generous.

“Uncle, stop talking and take the money. I need Caicai to come back soon. I want to make money with her.”

Without her, his business had been slow.

He had figured it out—Zhouzhou brought him good luck.

Also, it was quite boring to run the stall alone, so he really missed Zhouzhou.

Reluctantly patting the sack, he gritted his teeth and stormed off.

If he didn’t leave now, he’d probably end up carrying the sack out of the door.

The others followed suit, throwing their piggy banks at Qin Lie’s feet before running off.

Those who couldn’t hold theirs also placed them on the ground.

Watching them, Qin Lie couldn’t help but smile.

He snapped a photo and sent it to Zhouzhou.

As for the money, he took it.

It would have hurt the kids’ feelings if he didn’t accept it.

Plus, it was rare to see his second nephew being so generous—he couldn’t let that kindness go to waste.

With that, he watched Qin Er take the sack to the car and leave.

Qin Er, clutching his chest, stretched out his arms in an exaggerated gesture of distress.

His money…

But it was fine—Caicai was more important.

He kept telling himself that in his heart, though he still felt a little heartbroken.

Then, he got up and returned to his knitting.

Money, money!

Zhouzhou hadn’t had time to check her messages. She was working around the clock.

Luckily, the medicine she developed had started showing results, and the preventive pills had been administered to everyone in the city. The number of new infections had decreased significantly in recent days.

One day, as Zhouzhou was massaging her sore arms and heading back to her rest room, the Ancestral Master suddenly grabbed her by the arm.

“Come on, I want to show you something.”
