Chapter 472 Special Abilities

Shang Shang nodded her little head: "Yes, eat it."

He then bent down to gnaw on the snake in his hand, startling the others who gasped in surprise.

Jiang Zhizhi acted quickly, rushing over to stop Shang Shang from taking a bite: "You can't eat it, it has bacteria."

Then they coaxed Shang Shang to throw the snake away: "They need to hibernate, shall we release it?"

Shang Shang was unwilling this time. Shen Luojia's words about eating it made her remember it deeply and she grumbled, "I want to eat it, I want to eat it, Auntie said to eat it."

Shen Luojia nodded beside her and said very seriously, "Cook it and eat it."

Shang Shang held on tightly, mimicking Shen Luojia's words: "Cook it and eat it, Mom, cook it and eat it."

Shang Shiying felt a chill run down her spine upon hearing this, fearing that the snake in Shang Shang's hand might move and bite the child. She shouted to Jiang Zhizhi, "This looks like a poisonous snake. Let it go quickly, or it might bite the child."

Shang Shang was unwilling: "I won't let you go, I won't let you go."

Helpless, Jiang Zhizhi squatted down and coaxed, "If you want to eat it, let's put it in the basket and then find someone to cook it, okay?"

The little girl tilted her head, thinking very seriously, while her two little hands tightly gripped the snake.

Finally, he figured it out and handed it to Jiang Zhizhi, saying, "Mom, here you go."

Jiang Zhizhi wasn't afraid of snakes, but she was afraid they were poisonous, so she carefully held onto the head and tail.

As a result, when the snake was in Jiang Zhizhi's hands, it began to writhe wildly with great strength, and Jiang Zhizhi almost lost her grip.

It was also frantically spitting out its tongue, making hissing and laughing sounds.

This made Jiang Zhizhi a little flustered; she hadn't expected the snake to be so strong.

Just as I was wondering whether to throw it on the ground, I saw Shangshang reach out her little hand and grab the snake's body. The snake, which was writhing, became motionless as if it had been enchanted.

Jiang Zhizhi was surprised; she hadn't noticed this before. She told Shang Shang to let go, but the snake started writhing wildly again.

After trying it several times, she discovered that Shangshang actually had this ability.

Fang Hua and Shang Shiying watched, both frightened and amazed. Their little Shang Shang was indeed different from normal people.

Finally, Shang Shang insisted on eating snake, so Jiang Zhizhi went to the large canteen in the courtyard and asked the chef if they knew how to cook snake.

There happened to be a Cantonese chef who knew how to make snake soup.

Jiang Zhizhi handed the snake to him and then took Shangshang home.

Shang Shang was very excited the whole way, feeling that she was about to eat something delicious.

As soon as they got back, she pulled Fang Hua aside and boasted, "Grandma, there's something delicious coming up, it's really good."

Fang Hua cried out a few times and waved her hands repeatedly: "Grandma can't eat it, Grandma is scared."

Shang Shang hugged Shang Shiying again, and Shang Shiying felt a chill run down her spine just thinking about it: "Shang Shang, can we like something cute from now on, like a little rabbit, a little dog, or how about the pug that your grandma bought for you? Or a kitten would be fine too."

Shang Shang shook her head and refused: "No, puppies aren't cute, they'll bite Shang Shang."

Shang Shiying coaxed Shang Shang, "If we have a puppy, we can play with the puppy every day, and then the puppy won't bite Shang Shang."

Shang Shang still refused, and Fang Hua, standing to the side, sighed helplessly: "Other little girls like kittens, puppies, and rabbits, but our Shang Shang likes insects, toads, and poisonous snakes, this..."

They're all scary things.

Jiang Zhizhi couldn't understand it either. Although she liked some of the things boys liked since she was little, she didn't like these things. In fact, before she turned eighteen, she was disgusted by toads, insects, and snakes.

...

After waiting for two hours, Shang Shang and Shen Luojia finally got to eat the snake meat they had been craving.

He even refused to eat dinner.

Fang Hua and Shang Shiying couldn't eat this; they couldn't even stand looking at it and ran to sit in the living room with disgust.

Jiang Zhenhua and Song Wanying weren't there either; they couldn't accept eating this either.

In the end, only Jiang Zhizhi, Bian Suxi, and Li Simin, who had just returned from get off work, watched the two people, one big and one small, gnawing on snake meat.

Shang Shang's face was covered in oil from eating, and she happily shook her little head as she ate, smiling at Jiang Zhizhi: "Mommy, it's delicious."

Jiang Zhizhi looked at Shen Luojia, who was engrossed in eating meat, and Shang Shang, who was happily eating while shaking her little head, and asked with some confusion: "These things weren't here in the compound before. How come it feels like Shang Shang has caught more in this year than people who have lived in the compound their whole lives have ever seen?"

Li Simin was also surprised: "Indeed, I've only seen snakes a few times in my life, and the only time I've seen them is when I'm in the mountains. As for toads, you can see them after it rains, but they're not very big. I've never even heard of one as big as the one Shang Shang caught, let alone never seen one."

Jiang Zhizhi frowned: "We found it strange before, and thought it was because the weather was good this year, so these things grew bigger. We didn't know how else to explain it."

Bian Suxi looked at Shangshang, who was shaking her little head. Because of her happiness, her eyes were curved into little crescents, and her two pigtails were shaking so hard they seemed to fly away.

He frowned and thought for a while: "Do you think our Shangshang has some kind of special ability?"

Li Simin immediately interrupted, "Aunt, you can't say this carelessly. If someone with ulterior motives finds out, they'll spread rumors about Shang Shang."

Bian Suxi also understood: "It's best if as few people as possible know about this. We need to keep an eye on things and prevent Shangshang from getting involved in these matters."

Jiang Zhizhi didn't say anything. She still had a question: why did these little animals become so obedient and docile in Shang Shang's hands?

This feeling of submission made her feel very strange.

Zhou Xiye didn't return until I got home that evening and was getting ready for bed.

When Zhou Xiye returned after taking a shower, Jiang Zhizhi quickly pulled him aside and told him about Shang Shang's behavior: "I had some suspicions before, but I didn't dare to think too much about it. Today, I can confirm that our daughter is different from ordinary children. She has special abilities in some aspects."

Zhou Xiye was also surprised after hearing this: "Special abilities?"

Jiang Zhizhi nodded: "Yes, this is very abnormal. Look, she is only a little over two years old, yet she dares to grab these things. You could explain it as a child's ignorance and fearlessness, but these animals have never resisted once they are in her hands."

"Think about it, even with that big toad, she didn't move once she caught it."

Zhou Xiye frowned: "How could this happen? Will it hurt Shangshang?"

Jiang Zhizhi shook her head: "It seems that it won't hurt Shangshang. Besides, everyone in the compound knows that Shangshang likes to catch these things, so they must have had their doubts."

Zhou Xiye wasn't worried: "Don't worry, given how favored Shang Shang is within the compound, no one dares to say anything out of line. But you still need to be careful outside the compound, lest you attract the attention of someone with ulterior motives."

"This skill might disappear when Shangshang gets older."

Jiang Zhizhi recalled the scene of Shangshang gnawing on snake meat and felt both amused and exasperated: "These little animals trusted her so much, and she actually insisted on eating them. Do you think she'll stop looking for Shangshang in the future?"

Zhou Xiye was also surprised by his daughter's boldness, but she was his daughter, and whatever she did was the best!
