Four-year-old Juanjuan was unloved by her father, ignored by her mother, and bullied by her older brothers. Left to shoulder the burden of a broken family all on her own.
Then one day, her pa...
I'm back in my little nest.
Juanjuan felt as if she had been living here just yesterday.
Although this place holds many painful memories for her, it also holds many good ones.
It was here that she lost her family, yet gained one in return.
"So, do you prefer it here, or in the capital?"
Bai Yun'an moved closer to Juanjuan and gave her an oil paper package containing some plums.
"I like to stay with my parents and brothers."
Juanjuan ate the plum; it was a bit sour, but acceptable, and actually tasted even better.
Perhaps it was because they had eaten something delicious that their expressions became lively, their eyes crinkling with joy, and Bai Yun'an, sitting next to them, felt that her mood had improved considerably.
[Favorability surpasses 90, host, keep up the good work.]
After a long silence, the system, which Bai Yun'an had almost forgotten about, suddenly spoke up.
Bai Yun'an's smile froze for a moment, then she revealed an indifferent smile.
[The favorability rating is already at 90!]
It's just a pity that people don't seem to be as obsessed with increasing favorability anymore.
Yes, she's already 90.
The system replied, its voice still cold and impersonal, but Bai Yun'an detected a hint of gentleness in it, though it was probably just his imagination.
Bai Yun'an relaxed and asked in a light tone, "What's the use of having 100% favorability? Besides being able to freely use things in the space."
[My supernatural abilities have been restored, but they are now subject to the control of Heaven.]
Bai Yun'an immediately thought of his elder brother being struck by lightning, and chuckled: "I understand."
Seeing that Bai Yun'an didn't seem very interested, the system simply remained silent and didn't say anything more.
When the time comes, Bai Yun'an will understand how useful his superpowers would be if they were restored.
Juanjuan chewed on the plum in her mouth, "Is this only 90?"
She felt that she now liked her third brother almost 100%.
The child is starting to doubt himself.
I did suspect that the system might be malfunctioning, but I didn't dare ask my third brother, so I had to give up.
In the evening, Juanjuan was still playing in the yard with Dachui, telling him about her experiences during her trip.
"Then, then I want to be a great general when I grow up! I'll be really powerful!"
Big Hammer patted his chest, indicating that he wouldn't be confined to this small Niantao Village.
In fact, based on Juanjuan's description, he also wanted to go out for a walk and see the things Juanjuan mentioned.
"But to become a great general, one must also study, and be brave and resourceful; otherwise, one might die before becoming a great general."
Juanjuan used a twig to draw on the ground and continued, "Just like the Mu family, every child has to study and understand military strategy."
Big Hammer was a little troubled: "I still have to study!"
"Yes, but don't be annoyed, I'll tell you in a secret..."
Juanjuan beckoned to Wang Dachui, signaling him to come over, and then whispered, "The Mu family's children aren't as smart as you think. Some of them don't like studying, and some are forced to study by their parents. So, if you study hard, you might really become a great general in the future!"
"Just think about it, if your uncle becomes a high-ranking official and you become a general, wouldn't you be able to take Grandma and the others to live a life of luxury?"
Juanjuan knew that Dachui was a kind and righteous child. Although he sometimes fantasized about getting rich, he hoped even more that his family could live a better life.
Let alone the sledgehammer.
Even Juanjuan now wants to grow up so that she can help her parents and brothers and become their pride.
"Okay! Then I will study hard from now on! I will learn military strategy and become a great general!"
Big Hammer immediately agreed, and an idea took root in the little child.
Actually, Da Chui really wanted to be a general, but it was just a thought, because he had never seen a general before. He was trapped in Nian Tao Village and had no idea how to be a general.
Things are different now; I've seen Juanjuan before.
So Big Hammer asked, "Then tell me about generals! What do they look like? How do you become a general?"
"OK!"
Under the moonlight, the girl recounted from the Mu family how to join the army, and told them about the desert, wolf packs, and iron cavalry that Mu Zhaoyuan had told her...
The boy listened intently, his eyes burning with confidence, as if his future path had already been laid out for him.
On a rooftop not far away, the three Bai brothers gathered together again.
Bai Yunqi: "Tsk... How come I didn't realize my sister was so good at brainwashing?"
Bai Yunxing: "If this big hammer really wants to go out and gain experience, I can help find someone to guide him."
We're neighbors who have a good relationship, so it's not unreasonable to ask someone to help out.
Bai Yun'an: "Find someone to guide him?"
Even my usually calm and honest second brother has started using connections to get things done?
Bai Yunxing smiled and said, "We can skip the enlistment process and just throw him into the barracks. He can start as a logistics soldier and just make sure he doesn't die."
The Mu family's children were all like this, thrown into the army under assumed names.
It not only provides training but also helps prevent bullying in the military.
Because no one knows if the Mu family children who were thrown in will see it, and if things go even worse, one of the Mu family children might be the one bullied.
That means it's really over.
"That works too."
Bai Yun'an took a sip of water from her thermos and thought it was fine.
Their little Juan is still taking things one step at a time, while Da Chui next door is trying to take some shortcut.
Bai Yunqi glanced at the third brother with the hot water and shamelessly asked, "Can I have another bottle of that carbonated drink from last time?"
Would you like a cocktail?
Bai Yun'an made the suggestion.
Bai Yunqi: "What is that thing? Is it wine made from chicken tails?"
"no."
As Bai Yun'an spoke, he took out two very beautiful glass bottles filled with brightly colored cocktails.
"It's not poisonous, is it?" Bai Yunqi remained skeptical.
Bai Yun'an shook his head.
Bai Yunqi took it and smelled it: "Then why don't you drink it?"
Bai Yun'an shook his thermos filled with goji berries: "I'm into health."
