Xia Jianguo sighed deeply, shook his head helplessly, and slowly said, "This time, Xiao Wan is really lucky! The mountain behind our village, whether deep in the mountains or at the foot of the mountain, is not an easy place to catch prey."
Looking back, there used to be a few hunters in the village who, because of their poverty, thought of going up the mountain to catch some game to improve their lives and have a good meal.
Unfortunately, despite their tireless efforts in climbing the mountain several times, they always returned empty-handed. Eventually, these hunters had no choice but to give up on the idea.
Actually, it wasn't that Xia Jianguo didn't trust his daughter; it was just that he couldn't help but feel worried and doubtful when he thought about how even experienced hunters hadn't been able to find a single trace of wild game when they went up the mountain before.
Xia Wan remained calm and composed in the face of her father's words, showing no surprise whatsoever. She smiled slightly and said with a hint of pride, "Dad, you're right. I also feel that I've had exceptionally good luck today!"
In fact, Xia Wan never expected to have any big gains. She just went up the mountain to have some fun, hoping to find a few wild eggs.
Who could have predicted such an unexpected and bountiful harvest today?
Just then, Xia Wan's eyes suddenly lit up, as if a flash of inspiration had struck her.
She thought to herself: Since I'm having such good luck today, shouldn't I take this opportunity to try my luck in a lottery? Maybe I'll get an even bigger surprise!
"System, system, let me draw a prize! I can't wait any longer, I want to draw...five times in a row!"
Xia Wan clenched her fists tightly, her heart feeling as if it were being gripped by an invisible hand, so excited it almost jumped out of her throat.
After a fierce internal struggle, she finally gave this relatively conservative figure.
After all, every point was incredibly precious to her at that moment.
She was really looking forward to accumulating a full 1000 points to use the query function.
Just then, the system's mechanical and cold voice rang out.
[Host is currently participating in the Xia Wan lottery. Please wait patiently!]
Time seemed to stand still, each second feeling incredibly long. Finally, the system notification sounded again.
[Congratulations, host Xia Wan! You've won a meat bun. Welcome to participate in the next lucky draw!]
[Congratulations, host Xia Wan, you have won +1 space! Welcome to participate in the next lottery.]
[Congratulations, host Xia Wan, you have won +1 space! Welcome to participate in the next lottery.]
[Congratulations, host Xia Wan, you have won 200 points. Welcome to participate in the next lottery.]
[Congratulations, host Xia Wan, you have won +1 space! Welcome to participate in the next lottery.]
When Xia Wan heard that she had actually drawn a full 200 points, her eyes widened instantly like saucers, sparkling with excitement.
She never expected that by spending a mere thirty points to participate in the lottery, she would not only avoid losses but also make a net profit of one hundred and seventy points!
More importantly, with these new points, she can finally put her long-awaited query function to use!
[Host, silently say "receive" to claim; you can claim it at any time!]
Xia Wan took a deep breath, trying to calm the surging joy in her heart, and silently said in her mind: "Claim all the rewards."
As she finished speaking, the fragrant meat bun with memory-enhancing properties, the extra space, and the two hundred points all transformed into streams of light, and the bun was automatically placed into the space.
Points and space are returned to their respective owners!
Xia Wan slowly opened the system interface and carefully checked the points inside.
Even if she spends 1000 points to use that mysterious query function, she can still steadily keep at least 100 points on hand!
Xia Wan couldn't help but cheer in her heart; today was indeed her lucky day!
"Old Xia, you rest well. I'm going to check on Grandma Wu's house to see if our rabbit meat is ready." Xia Wan waved her hand lightly as she walked briskly toward the door.
Watching his daughter's cheerful departure, Xia Jianguo could only sigh helplessly.
After spending this time together, he finally saw his mischievous daughter clearly. When she was well-behaved and sensible, she would sweetly call him "Dad," but once she got excited, she would unceremoniously change her address to "Old Xia."
As soon as Xia Wan stepped out of the house, Xia Tao called out to her anxiously, "Xiao Wan, where are you going?"
He couldn't stand this group any longer. When he saw Xia Wan appear, it was like seeing a savior. His pitiful eyes clearly said, "Sister, please save me!"
Xia Wan turned to look at the group of people over there. Seeing that everyone was looking at her, she smiled, revealing a set of white teeth, and said casually, "What's going on? Aren't you going to cook? Aren't you in a hurry to get to work? Brother, wait here, I'll go get you some meat!"
Everyone: "???" Where are we going to get the meat?
Xia Tao was secretly delighted to see that everyone's attention had been successfully drawn to his younger sister.
Like a slippery eel, he quickly found a fleeting gap, twisted his body, and nimbly slipped out of the crowd, calling out, "Xiao Wan, wait for me, I'll go with you!"
So the two hurriedly headed towards Grandma Wu's house next door.
As soon as I arrived at the door, a rich and fragrant aroma wafted towards me. Grandma Wu's family had already started stewing rabbit meat!
At this moment, when Grandma Wu saw them arrive, she hurriedly and warmly greeted them, "Come in and sit down, the rabbit meat will be stewed soon, just wait a little while, it definitely won't delay your work time!"
These words were clearly directed at Xia Wan, because everyone knows that Xia Tao has a respectable job in the city and naturally doesn't need to work regular hours like others.
Upon hearing what Third Grandmother said, Xia Wan's face immediately lit up with a bright smile. She walked forward confidently and plopped down in a chair.
He said with a grin, "Oh, thank you so much! If it weren't for your help, I would have ruined this perfectly good rabbit meat!"
Just then, Bai Jian, who had been silent all along, suddenly seemed to remember something.
He scratched his head somewhat sheepishly, then revealed an endearingly simple-minded look. Next, he slowly extended his hand, revealing two beautifully packaged White Rabbit milk candies in his palm.
He held out his hand and handed the candy to Xia Wan, noticing that her ear tips were slightly red: "Xia Zhiqing, this milk candy... is for you!"
