Chapter 250 Deafness and Hearing
After pulling Sister Que'er out of the hall with her domineering manner, Qiuqiu regretted it.
Because she wasn't full!
But going back at this time would make her seem greedy.
Actually, I've always been quite a glutton...
As she hesitated, a delicate little face loomed larger and larger before her, making Qiuqiu gasp for breath.
Sparrow gently asked her, "Would you like to eat some more?"
Looking at Sister Sparrow's pointed chin, and then touching her own round, chubby chin, Chiu Chiu shook her head against her will for the first time: "No."
From today onwards, she will live on dew.
Because she felt guilty, Chirp chirped very softly, and Sparrow couldn't hear her clearly, so she tried to turn to the side. Chirp thought for a moment, then tiptoed and gently kissed Sparrow's ear.
Sparrow froze, the tips of her ears turning a bright red, almost dripping blood. She raised her hand to touch them; they were frighteningly hot. But Chirp, the culprit, acted as if nothing had happened, and seeing Sparrow motionless, even went forward, grabbed her hand, and shook it.
A lovely, soft-spoken young lady, so cute!
Que'er stood there, somewhat bewildered. Su Xiucheng, who had caught up with her the year after next, wiped his mouth and rushed over to hug Que'er. "You lecherous scoundrel, how could you flirt with Que'er!"
Chuchu, her chubby cheeks puffed out, didn't seem to care. [Only stinky boys flirt; Chuchu's approach is more like a girlfriend directly sticking up to someone!]
The brothers Su Xiucheng and Su Jingwen could already imagine how cunning and eloquent Qiuqiu would be when she could speak fluently; she had a whole repertoire of twisted and unorthodox arguments.
Su Jingwen sighed, poked Qiuqiu's cheek, and poked it so hard it left a dimple. He shook his head helplessly at Qiuqiu: "What are you going to do in the future!"
Even as a tiny little kid, she can't resist walking past attractive people. What will she be like when she grows up!
Chiu Chiu didn't want to talk to her two older brothers, so she tugged at her older sister Sparrow's clothes, signaling her to squat down. Sparrow obediently bent down, and Chiu Chiu raised her hand to cover Sparrow's ears, saying, "You can't listen."
The already unclear sound became even more inaudible after Chirp covered her ears. She could only see Chirp's mouth moving, but couldn't hear anything, which made Sparrow very uneasy. She appeared slightly anxious, and her whole body trembled unnaturally.
Su Jingwen was the first to notice that something was wrong with Que'er. They all knew that Que'er was quite sensitive, so they usually spoke to her as loudly as possible so that she could hear them clearly. Only in this way could they reduce Que'er's feelings of inferiority when communicating with them.
Just as he was about to scold Qiuqiu for doing that, he heard Qiuqiu's angry, sweet voice say: "Sister Que'er, don't listen! It's a bad review of Qiuqiu!"
Although she's young, she's not stupid. Her brother just wanted to say she was lecherous.
She's so young, what's wrong with looking at pretty girls? Can't a person have some hobbies in life?
Que'er could clearly hear Chirp's thoughts. She wasn't born deaf; it was caused by a fever she developed later in life. She used to be able to hear clearly. Since she turned three, she had become less sensitive to sound. Loud voices were indeed audible to her, but excessively loud noises caused her head to throb with pain.
So she gradually became less inclined to communicate with others and immersed herself in her own world.
But today she heard a sound that was unusually clear and did not make her feel uncomfortable.
Her shoulders trembled as she supported Qiuqiu's limp body, asking each word carefully, "Is Qiuqiu speaking?"
She spoke slowly, and Chirp listened attentively. Chirp nodded, "Yes!"
Chuchu giggles foolishly; she's such a chatterbox. She can chat with Sister Que'er every day. Sister Fu Ning and Little Dot Sister belong to other people, but Sister Que'er is her own. No one can resist a beautiful and gentle young lady!
Chirp just wanted to give all the older sisters a home. "Come on, Chirp... Monkey!"
Let's play house and find Zha Zha to join them.
Sparrow happily followed Chirp away, wanting to find a chance to double-check how Chirp had made that sweet, babyish sound. How could such a beautiful sound exist in the world!
Su Xiucheng stroked his chin, wondering why the sparrow was so happy to chirp, when his older brother slapped him on the back of the head. He rubbed the back of his head and glared at his brother: "What are you doing!"
Su Jingwen pouted: "What are you standing there for? Have you forgotten what we're supposed to do?"
"Oh, right, right, right!" Su Xiucheng scratched the back of his head and smiled, revealing a row of white teeth. "I really forgot about it."
"Then what are you waiting for? Chase after them!"
"Huh? Ah... Yes, yes, yes!"
Fortunately, Chiu Chiu and the others weren't walking very fast, so they caught up with them after running for a while.
"Chirp chirp, come with us later. Xue Zheng and Jiang Yuming are so worried about you. I told them you're safe and sound, but they didn't believe me!"
We must take Chuchu out and show it to them!
Little did Chiu Chiu know that in front of her unreliable older brothers, she had become a doll that could be taken out for exhibition at any time. She nodded and felt that she really needed to go out for a stroll to let everyone know that she was back.
After yesterday's critical moment of life and death, Chiu Chiu has awakened!
She must make sure she gets noticed by the bigwigs in the capital, so that when danger comes, they'll remember the cute and clever Qiuqiu. Maybe if some kind soul pleads for her, her life will be saved!
Having lost half of her good fortune, Qiuqiu's main task now is to keep her family alive, since Qiao Muyang hasn't been found yet. No one can guarantee when he'll return, so Qiuqiu can't rest easy as long as the male lead is alive.
And that mysterious female lead, she's supposed to be selling clothes in Beijing now, but where is she?
She was already prepared to kill the female lead; not to mention the female lead, she hadn't even seen a single female supporting character.
The plot makes me sad!
Sparrow: It's making a chirping sound. Could it be that I've awakened a mysterious skill?
Su Jingwen & Su Xiucheng: Chirp is about to start making prophecies again!
The three of them stared intently at Qiuqiu, waiting to see if she would say anything more, but after waiting for a long time, they didn't hear her sweet voice. Instead, Qiuqiu stared at them strangely, "Let's go?"
Actually, Chuchu is a little shy. They must have been captivated by Chuchu's beauty to keep staring at her!
"Looking for my brother!"
Su Xiucheng resigned himself to being a human mount, picked up Qiuqiu, and shouted to Que'er, "Que'er, are you coming with us? And Gu Qinghuai from the Zhennan Prince's family, we're going to the Imperial Advisor's place."
I heard that Wang Xinyu is studying pharmacology with the Imperial Advisor. They're so skilled, maybe they can even cure Que'er's ear!
Sparrow was actually a little older than the twins; she should have been the older sister, but the twins had gotten used to taking care of her more and gradually started to act like the older brother. Sparrow never argued with them, but today was different; Chirp, that fussy little devil, was here.
She nudged the young man's head and tried to correct him: "Call me 'sister'!"
Head held high, chest puffed out, and with an aggressive air, she declared, "Sister!"
The generational order must be maintained!
Que'er's eyes were gentle, and she smiled shyly, following Chiu Chiu's lead, she said, "Yes, I am the older sister."
