Chapter 194 Overconfident

After she finished speaking, the other women stopped mocking her as they had before, because they all had similar thoughts to some extent.

After all, the daughter eats at her parents' home but does the work at her husband's home. They won't take care of her in her old age or see her off when she dies. So it's not unreasonable for her to ask her husband's family for some food.

Moreover, if they say today that Old Lady Li shouldn't have gone to her husband's family to freeload, who knows, next time they themselves go to their daughter's husband's family for a meal, they might be scolded for freeloading.

Li Chunshui kept her head down and remained silent; her mother had said these words to her countless times.

She knew that it wasn't easy for her parents to raise her for over ten years, but now she was not only the daughter of the Li family, but also the daughter-in-law of the Qi family.

But years of passive acceptance had prevented her from having even the slightest thought of rebellion.

Seeing that they didn't say anything, Old Lady Li's expression was extremely smug. This was the only use of a freeloader.

Otherwise, she would have thrown them into the mountains to be eaten by wolves long ago when they were born!

In her smugness, she lost her composure and blurted out, "If you ask me, Ma Xiulian's brain—"

"What's wrong with my brain?" Ma Xiulian appeared behind her at some point, staring at her with an unfriendly expression.

Old Mrs. Li immediately shrank her neck and said awkwardly, "My dear in-law, you are clever and quick-witted."

In the courtyard, the two brothers, Li Dahu and Li Xiaohu, huddled in a corner like quails, their usual arrogance completely gone.

Especially after seeing Helian Jiao come out of the house, he wished he could disappear into the ground, afraid that she would see him.

But the little princess has such good eyesight; she has a deep impression of the Li brothers who dared to steal her things.

So he immediately walked over aggressively, baring his white teeth and warning in a menacing voice, "If you dare touch my things again, I'll beat you up!"

Upon hearing this, Li Dahu and Li Xiaohu nodded frantically, their little faces filled with fear. After all, even their grandmother had been beaten to tears by this seemingly delicate and pretty little girl.

Li Chunshui's two sons, however, had their eyes shining brightly, looking at their little cousin who wasn't even as tall as them with adoration.

Li Dahu and Li Xiaohu were so rude to them yesterday. They not only stole their fruit candies and glass beads, but also bullied and beat them.

But when it came to his little sister, he didn't dare to be arrogant at all, and was even scared to tears.

So he sincerely praised her, "My dear little sister, you are really amazing!"

Upon hearing this, the little princess raised her chin proudly and said, "I am the most powerful and majestic."

The Qi brothers nodded without hesitation: "Yes! Our little sister is the best!"

His tone and expression were so genuine, and his face shone with adoration, which pleased the little princess greatly.

But Young Master Gu pursed his lips, a sense of crisis rising in his heart, after all, he knew how much the little hamster loved to hear others praise her for being amazing.

But the Qi brothers were completely oblivious to his displeasure, and asked with great interest, "Sweet little sister, can we see the sika deer you caught?"

"sure."

Helian Jiao nodded generously, habitually taking the big bad dragon's hand and leading them to the backyard to see the sika deer.

The slight sense of crisis in Young Master Gu's heart vanished instantly. He grabbed the soft little hand in return, thinking to himself that the little hamster really did like him the most.
