While they weren't paying attention, Long Sisi took out an old hen from her spatial storage and threw it into the yard.
She pretended to be greedy and said, "Grandma, Sisi doesn't want to eat the rat porridge, Sisi wants to eat the chicken leg."
Zhou Erqian immediately rolled her eyes. "Chicken leg? Would you eat a human leg? You should be grateful for any meat at all. Stop being so picky!"
"Zhou Erqian!" Qin shouted, her eyes wide, before he finally grunted twice and shut his mouth.
The old lady felt a pang of sadness and was about to comfort her when she suddenly heard a giggling sound coming from outside.
"Sisi's mother, can you hear me?"
Qin excitedly got up and ran outside. She saw a lame chicken hopping around beside the ruins. She rubbed her eyes hard and shouted happily, "Mother, Mother, it's a chicken, a live hen!"
The old lady also came out to see, and excitedly slapped her thigh.
"Amazing! Absolutely amazing! Sisi just said she wanted a big chicken leg and this chicken arrived! It's like a miracle!"
Zhou Erqian took a disdainful bite of tree bark. "I think you're all starving. It would be strange if there were chickens in a year of famine. If there were, I'd twist my head off and let this brat kick it around like a ball."
Before he could finish speaking, a round object was thrown at him.
Zhou Erqian was so startled that he sat down on the ground with a thud, and with a "plop," the old hen in his arms pooped all over him.
What is it?
Zhou Erqian's eyes widened like light bulbs as he stared at the old hen and its droppings, rubbing his eyes in disbelief. "There really is a chicken?"
Could it be that this brat's luck has turned around?
Qin grabbed the old hen and snorted, "Of course there is. I think you're the one who's gone crazy. You deserve to get covered in this."
She happily told the old lady, "Our Sisi might be God's own daughter. God couldn't bear to let his daughter go hungry, so He sent her food."
"Sisi is such a good baby of Grandma." The old lady gave her a big kiss on her soft little face.
Long Sisi giggled.
Yay, no more rat porridge!
Long Sisi stretched out her chubby little hands to reach Zhou Erqian's head, "Erguoguo, piqiuqiu, titi".
Zhou Erqian's face flushed red instantly, and he said angrily, "You...you...how dare you! I'm your second brother!"
Qin rolled her eyes at him and turned to Long Sisi, saying, "Ignore your second brother, he can't accept defeat."
"Who can't accept defeat!" he cried out in panic. "I'm...I'm..."
He stammered for a long time, unable to get a coherent answer.
Who knew this brat would be so quick-witted? She said she wanted chicken drumsticks and they came right away. If he had known, he wouldn't have said anything!
Due to water scarcity, this chicken can only be roasted, not stewed.
The fat chicken was roasting so hard that it sizzled and dripped with oil, making everyone's stomachs rumble, especially Zhou Erqian's, which rumbled again and again.
All eyes turned to him simultaneously.
He stubbornly refused to admit it, saying, "Why are you all looking at me? It must be that brat's stomach growling; she was yelling the loudest just now!"
Long Sisi puffed out her cheeks and hummed.
That stinky bastard, he clearly wanted to eat it himself, yet he blamed Sisi!
The plump chicken was roasted quickly.
The old lady tore off a big, tender roasted chicken leg for Sisi, and the aroma made Sisi's mouth water.
She chewed the meat slowly, her cheeks puffed out like a hamster's, and she kept talking, "Eat, Grandma eat, Mom eat."
Zhou Erqian said with a sneer, "Why don't you ask Second Brother to eat?"
Long Sisi pouted and said in a soft, sweet voice, "Erguoguo, eat too. Erguoguo, eat lots and lots of meat."
"That's more like it." Zhou Erqian was satisfied and couldn't wait to tear off a piece of chicken and start eating.
It's soft and fluffy on the palate, leaving a lingering fragrance on your lips and teeth; it's so delicious that you'll want to swallow your tongue.
The old lady patted the little girl's head, picked up a piece of chicken butt, and said with a smile, "Eating."
Qin only ate a small piece. "Fifth Brother is still lying in the room. I'll tear off some meat to make porridge for him later."
Mentioning the fifth brother, Zhou Erqian lost his appetite. He glared fiercely at Long Sisi and chewed the meat in his mouth vigorously.
Long Sisi covered her chubby little hand, and Erguoguo seemed to be eating Sisi's hand, making crunching noises.
Erguotou (a type of Chinese liquor) is so scary!
"Eat quickly, Erqian. After you finish eating, we'll go fix the house. We still need to sleep tonight. I'll go cook some porridge for Lao Wu," Qin urged him.
Zhou Erqian wolfed down his food.
The old lady looked at the dilapidated house and couldn't help but sigh. The drought was severe, the family was poor, and there were many children ahead of them. How were they going to survive?
Two of the three mud houses collapsed in the fire, but fortunately the fallen mud bricks were all whole pieces, which could be rebuilt with some mud.
The current problem is, without water, how do we mix the mud?
On Tuesday, Qian was exhausted and shouted in frustration.
"Mother, dear mother, there's no water! How can we build a wall with mud without water?"
"That's difficult. Why don't you go borrow some water from another house?"
The old lady clicked her tongue. "They'd save the water for drinking, not for you to play with in the mud."
Qin sighed, "Yes."
No water or mud?
Long Sisi blinked her big eyes. Sisi has plenty of water. Sisi is a princess of the dragon clan, so she has no shortage of water.
Looking at the pile of mud that Erguotou had built up, with a small pit in the middle for holding water, Sisi had an idea.
She swung her chubby little legs off the bed and ran straight to the mud pile, spitting as she wiggled her little bottom.
Zhou Erqian was speechless for a moment. Wasn't this brat supposed to be smart? Why is she doing something stupid again?
Do you really think saliva can mix with mud?!
"Mother, that brat has gone stupid again, she..."
Um?
etc.
What did he see?
Before him lay a muddy puddle of water, so clear that his dark face was reflected in it.
Zhou Erqian tapped his head, feeling like he was hallucinating. How did water suddenly appear out of nowhere?
He muttered to himself, puzzled, "Could it be that I caught that brat's bad habit? Has my brain stopped working?"
"Oh my goodness!" Qin cried out as she rushed over, exclaiming incredulously, "Water! There's water!"
Realizing something was wrong, Qin picked up Sisi and looked around. Water couldn't have appeared out of nowhere.
Long Sisi's chubby little hands tugged at her clothes, eagerly awaiting praise. "Mommy, it's water that Sisi conjured up!"
"Good, good, Sisi is so great!"
Qin Shi naturally didn't take the child's words seriously. After giving him a few perfunctory replies, her gaze settled on the rubble above the mud pit.
She said to Zhou Erqian, "It must be that the rubble has collected the rainwater from earlier. We're lucky. Now that we can mix mud, let's hurry up and repair the house. I'm going to feed Lao Wu some porridge."
Qin carried the bowl into the only standing room.
Zhou Erqian believed her mother's words and quickly got to work.
When Long Sisi saw that her human mother didn't believe her, she was so angry that her dragon whiskers almost turned into corn silk.
With her cheeks puffed out and hands on her hips, she surveyed the yard and spotted the large water vat at the foot of the wall.
Watch as this dragon princess displays her extraordinary skills!
Carrying her chubby body, Long Sisi went there.
The embarrassing thing is, it has a thick boom but not a tall cylinder!
The little guy racked his brains, and after huffing and puffing on the fallen mud bricks, he finally saw the mouth of the vat.
