Taking advantage of her momentary daze, the village chief stumbled and ran away.
After a long while, Qin Shi finally rushed over, trembling, and cried, "My dear child, it's been three years, and you've finally called me 'Mother'!"
After three years of bad luck, finally something happy has happened!
"Hmm..."
Long Sisi's face turned red from being hugged. Her human mother was so enthusiastic that she was almost suffocating.
But my human mother smells so good, Sisi loves it.
"I love Mommy, Mommy smells so good."
"Sisi, it's me, Grandma! It's me, Grandma!" The old lady squeezed in, waiting for her to call out to her.
The little girl's eyes darted around, and she called out in a clear, sweet voice, "Grandma, hello Grandma."
"Okay, okay, boohoo." The old lady covered her face and cried loudly, "Thank God, my Sisi is finally not stupid anymore, she can speak now, thank God!"
As they were speaking, a loud boom was heard.
The ruins behind them had completely collapsed.
Holding Sisi in her arms, Qin felt a deep sorrow in her heart.
Now that even our place of residence has collapsed, how are we going to live from now on?
"My sister really is a jinx."
A sarcastic remark, laced with anger, rang out.
Qin hurriedly covered Sisi's ears and glared at her, "Zhou Erqian, you bastard, what nonsense are you spouting?"
Nine-year-old Zhou Erqian scrambled to his feet, clutching his head, his dark face contorted with disgust and rage. "Did I say something wrong? My older brother can't get married because of her because his face was injured!"
Her third and fourth brothers couldn't go to school because of her and had to do hard labor in town. Her fifth brother broke his leg and was dying from a high fever. Now she's even brought disaster to the house. What else could she be but a jinx?
If it weren't for her, he wouldn't have been knocked unconscious with a stick just now, and his head is still throbbing with pain.
"Shut up!" Qin was so angry she felt dizzy.
"Zhou Erqian, Sisi is your own sister. Does anyone say their own sister is a jinx?"
He scoffed, "Can't I even speak the truth? If you ask me, we should sell her to Aunt Zhang in the village. We could at least get some money. Otherwise, with her around, our family will never be rich..."
Snap!
With red eyes, Qin slapped him hard across the face. "Shut up! I've waited so many years for Sisi to come into my life. If you dare to make a move on her, I'll skin you alive!"
"That's true, what's the point of having her? She's just bad luck for our family. We're poor because of her. I'd rather not have this sister..."
The old lady quickly covered his loud shouts and pretended to be annoyed, saying, "What nonsense are you talking about? If you have that energy, go do some work. The house is waiting for you to fix it!"
They hurriedly pulled him away, and the old lady tried to persuade him for a long time. Qin Shi also shed sad tears because of his words.
Suddenly, a chubby little hand reached out and wiped away her tears.
Long Sisi looked at her seriously and said in her childish voice, "Mommy, don't cry. Crying will make you less pretty."
"Okay," Qin Shi wiped away her tears and stopped crying.
Although she lost her husband, she still has Sisi. Sisi is no longer mentally challenged, so her life will have something to look forward to in the future!
Mrs. He went into the room and brought out Sisi's small bed.
She gently put the little girl down and said, "Sisi, how about you play by yourself? Mommy will go help fix the house, and when it's fixed, Mommy will make Sisi something delicious."
Okay~
Long Sisi nodded obediently, and after she left, all her words turned into a sigh.
She had heard what was said earlier; the dark-skinned man was the original owner's second older brother, who had never liked the original owner.
Long Sisi stood there angrily with her hands on her hips, while the dark-skinned man cursed Sisi as a jinx, saying, "I hate it, I hate it, I hate it!"
But then she remembered the bleak ending she had just witnessed—that someone had been stabbed to death in the street for trying to steal food from Sisi.
So much blood, it's so tragic!
Never mind, Sisi has forgiven her second brother.
But this family is just too poor!
Fortunately, she was a dragon cub. Although she had to descend to the mortal realm to undergo tribulations, her father made an exception for her by building a temple for her on a sacred mountain and receiving offerings to help her ascend to immortality as soon as possible.
Those who worship the Dragon Princess will enjoy good fortune, longevity, health, and favorable weather.
The temple is connected to her spiritual space; as long as the incense continues to burn, she will not starve and can access her spiritual needs at will.
The room was filled with offerings from worshippers, piled up to the height of a whole floor.
It seems everyone really likes her little dragon.
Long Sisi grinned, drool dripping down her cheeks.
Princess Sisi's family is too poor, she needs to find a way!
The little guy caught an old hen in the space and was looking at where to put it when he was suddenly startled by a black face with white teeth.
Zhou Erqian grinned coldly, still holding a skinny mouse in his hand, and deliberately raised his voice.
"Oh, I'm lucky I didn't touch Sisi today, I caught a mouse right away."
It's as if you're saying that touching her will bring bad luck and prevent you from catching mice.
Stay away from your sister!
Qin was so angry that she took off her shoes and was about to hit him, but the old lady stopped her, saying, "They're just children, calm down."
In years of famine, catching even a single rat was considered lucky.
The old lady went over happily, picked up the mouse and looked it over from left to right, praising, "It's really good. I'll skin it and kill it later to make meat porridge for Sisi."
Zhou Erqian was unhappy. "Why should she get to eat it?"
"You, as the older brother, are even fighting with your sister for food. Aren't you ashamed?" The old lady rolled her eyes at him, waved the mouse in front of Long Sisi, and laughed.
"Sisi, how about Grandma makes you some meat porridge?"
A dignified dragon princess drinking rat porridge?
Long Sisi shook her head like a rattle drum, protesting in a soft, sweet voice, "No, Sisi doesn't want to eat rat porridge, Sisi doesn't like rats, they're dirty!"
The old lady's body stiffened.
Zhou Erqian scoffed, "Oh, they don't even want to eat it, Grandma, you're just offering your warm face to their cold backside."
The old lady glared at him, then turned and coaxed, "The whole city of Wuzhou has been suffering from drought for three years. Grains are not growing, livestock are not surviving, and there are only a few rats left. Sisi is growing and needs to eat meat, so be good."
"But the big rat is dirty..."
"It's alright, Grandma will wash it thoroughly."
The big rat was still cooked into porridge. The old lady was afraid that Sisi would dislike it, so she specially used the water she had saved to wash it again and again.
The kitchen was unaffected by the fire, and the three people and their child sat around it, staring at each other.
The old lady picked up the little girl, scooped a spoonful of meat porridge, and fed it to Long Sisi. "Good Sisi, eat quickly, it will help you grow tall."
"Is there only one bowl? Grandma, what are Mom and my second brother eating?" Long Sisi pouted in protest.
Zhou Erqian said sarcastically, "We eat tree bark, which is not as noble as yours. You are penniless but you still have to eat meat."
Qin brought over a small pot and kicked him in the buttocks. The pot contained blackened tree bark.
She chuckled softly, "The bark is tender today, easy to chew."
They gave her the only succulent to eat, while the others ate tree bark?
Long Sisi's eyes immediately welled up with tears.
No, everyone needs to eat meat.
