Chapter 86 086 The insignificance of life, the tragedy of death

After carefully taking notes on the novels and putting all five books into a box for safekeeping in her spatial storage, Qin Xiaoxiao went to the Qin family home with two big dark circles under her eyes.

Upon entering the courtyard, Qin Wei, who was washing up, was shocked by Qin Xiaoxiao's condition.

"Did you go thief last night?"

Qin Xiaoxiao dragged her legs weakly past Qin Wei without even glancing at him.

Qin Wei was stunned to be ignored by his pampered younger sister. He quickly threw away the water in the toothbrush cup and ran after Qin Xiaoxiao into the house.

As soon as Qin Xiaoxiao lifted the curtain, she saw Qin Ye sitting at the table waiting for his meal.

Qin Xiaoxiao glared at Qin Ye resentfully.

Qin Ye: "..."

What did I do to offend my precious little sister?

"My goodness, what's wrong?"

Grandma Qin carried the rice bowl into the room and saw Qin Xiaoxiao sprawled on the kang (a heated brick bed). She immediately put down the bowl, climbed onto the kang with heartache, and touched Qin Xiaoxiao's forehead.

After touching her forehead, she touched her own forehead and said, "I'm not hot! You don't have a cold. Little one, tell Grandma, what's wrong with you? Why do you seem so weak?"

Qin Xiaoxiao stared blankly at the ceiling. "It's okay, Grandma, I'm hungry."

When Grandma Qin heard that her granddaughter was hungry, she quickly climbed off the kang (a heated brick bed) and served Qin Xiaoxiao a bowl of food. "Why are you still so hungry? Come and eat. Grandma will boil two more eggs for you to help you recover."

Grandma Qin turned to go to the kitchen, but Qin Xiaoxiao quickly stopped her.

"Grandma, I'm fine. You don't need to boil eggs anymore. I'm tired of eating them every day."

Qin Ye: "..."

You're not tired of it? You've been eating it for two months straight, how could you not be tired of it!

Qin Wei: “…”

I envy my sister; I haven't eaten eggs for two months.

Qin Xiaoxiao forced herself to get up and sit at the dining table to eat, which made Grandma Qin feel heartbroken again.

Turning around, she saw Qin Feng shoveling rice into his mouth. Qin's mother was furious and immediately slapped Qin Feng hard across the face.

"Eat, eat, all you do is eat! Can't you see Xiaoxiao is sick? Look at those dark circles under her eyes, she looks like a national treasure! And you still have the appetite to eat?"

Qin Feng was almost slapped under the table by Old Madam Qin. He reluctantly put down his bowl and said, "Mom, I have to go to work in a little while. How can I survive if I don't eat?"

I'm worried about Xiaoxiao being sick. How about this, Xiaoxiao doesn't have to go to work today, since she won't earn much anyway..."

Before Qin Feng could finish speaking, Ma Dahua, quick as a flash, slapped Qin Feng across the face first.

"What are you saying? My Xiaoxiao is so hardworking and ambitious, and you still complain? So what if she has fewer work points? It's not that she wants fewer work points, it's because she's not in good health."

Ma Dahua glared at Qin Feng, then looked at Qin Xiaoxiao with a smile.

“Xiaoxiao, don’t listen to your grandpa. He’s a blockhead. Just do your job as usual. It’s okay if you don’t finish. Let your brother finish the rest for you. Your work points will definitely not be less than others.”

Qin Feng twitched his lips and looked at Qin Ye with sympathy.

Qin Ye had already taken it all in stride and was still in the mood to continue eating.

He can't not eat. He has to do his own part and his sister's part. He's tired after doing two jobs. How can he work if he doesn't eat enough?

Grandma Qin also glared at Qin Feng, then turned back to look at Qin Xiaoxiao with a smile.

"Little one, listen to Grandma, don't go to work today, just stay home and sleep for a while, and you'll feel better after a nap."

Qin Wei, get your sister some medicine in a bit. After that, help her with her chores, then wait for my message. I'll stay home with Xiaoxiao. If she's still feeling unwell, you and your brother should take her to the county town for a doctor.

Qin Wei nodded, "Understood, Grandma."

He only had two days off, but his grandma wouldn't let him rest. He also had to help his sister work in the fields to earn work points. Who could he complain to?

By the time Qin Xiaoxiao came to her senses, Grandma Qin had already made clear arrangements for her two grandsons.

Helpless, Qin Xiaoxiao could only smile wryly and say to Grandma Qin, "Grandma, I'm not sick. I just didn't sleep well last night. I'll take a nap after I finish eating, and I'll be fine by the afternoon."

Grandma Qin was worried, but she listened to Qin Xiaoxiao and told her to stay home and get some sleep before making a decision.

After dinner, the Qin family members all went out to work, leaving only Qin Xiaoxiao and Old Mrs. Qin at home.

Having not slept all night, Qin Xiaoxiao was still wide awake, staring blankly at the ceiling before finally feeling sleepy after a long while.

Qin Xiaoxiao slept until noon when she finished work.

After waking up, Qin Xiaoxiao was fully recovered.

So what if it's a novel world? So what if it's a world where multiple novels overlap? So what if she's just a minor character who dies young in all five novels? What's the big deal? She's a post-apocalyptic woman, a reborn woman, a transmigrated woman!

She has the space to rely on, the Qin family as her backer, and the original plot as her confidence. She is not the weak and indecisive original owner. She refuses to believe that she can die early.

Life is a journey, take it slow, and she'll always find a way to avoid all the calamities.

Once he figured it out, he stopped feeling down and started to find Qin Ye much more agreeable.

Well, her brother treats her well. He wouldn't say he spoils her rotten, but he's pretty good to her. There aren't many people in this world who would willingly be enslaved by her like this without a single complaint.

Thinking of Qin Ye's hardships, Qin Xiaoxiao put the two eggs that Grandma Qin had specially cooked for her at noon into Qin Ye's bowl, which made Qin Wei envious again.

I want to eat too.

Qin Ye looked up at Qin Xiaoxiao in a panic when he saw the two extra boiled eggs in the bowl.

"What's wrong? Are you still feeling unwell? Can't you eat? If not, you should go to the hospital this afternoon, so you don't actually get sick."

Qin Xiaoxiao shook her head, "It's okay, brother, you eat. Don't think too much."

Qin Ye glanced at Qin Xiaoxiao's complexion and found it to be much better than in the morning, with a rosier appearance, which put his mind at ease.

But he didn't eat any of it. He put one in Qin Aiguo's bowl and gave the other to Qin's grandmother.

Seeing that Qin Xiaoxiao's complexion had returned to normal, the elderly couple didn't insist and ate the eggs themselves.

At noon, Grandma Qin forced Qin Xiaoxiao to take another nap. When it was time to go to work in the afternoon, Qin Xiaoxiao woke up, told Grandma Qin, and went back to the educated youth compound.

Back at the educated youth compound, Qin Xiaoxiao took out the five novels again, taking notes on each one. After noting down the exact time of her death and briefly reviewing the plot, she put the books away.

Of the five books, only Miao Feifei's book is considered past her death throes. The second book, with Qin Ye as the male protagonist, is still facing her death throes. Before the female protagonist goes to the countryside, she still has to be careful not to fall off the mountain.

Well, in one of the other three books, she died from a fall; in another, she hanged herself; and in the last one, she was gored to death by a wild boar coming down the mountain.

Five novels, five ways to die, all five ways to die were quite tragic, but she was the kind of person who didn't die a good death.

In summary, she was born insignificant, died tragically, and incidentally even gave the female lead a cheat code.

Qin Xiaoxiao couldn't help but point her middle finger at the heavens.

Damn it!

Did I dig up your ancestral grave or destroy the world in my past life?

Could you make her die an even more gruesome death?
