Chapter 16 Have you ever eaten a big chicken drumstick?
The little girl blinked, and a layer of mist quickly covered her big eyes like black grapes.
She really didn't expect it. She always thought that they didn't use the things she conjured up because they were afraid that these things came from unknown sources and would bring them trouble and disaster.
She had never expected Luo Qiuyue's words. At that moment, Xiaojiu felt like something in her heart had broken.
To be honest, these few days at the Ye family were the happiest time she had ever had in her two lives.
In her previous life, she was just someone her parents and brothers could call and dismiss at will. The reason she was able to go to college was because her two brothers were not good at studying, and her parents needed to use her grades as a capital to show off.
Since high school, she has earned her tuition and living expenses by working part-time and doing part-time jobs, without her family contributing a penny.
Even so, her two brothers still disliked her and often fanned the flames in front of their parents. One day, they would say that a certain sister was making a lot of money by entertaining the whole family, and the next day, they would say that a certain sister married a wealthy man and let the whole family travel around the world on a luxury cruise ship...
She had never felt the warmth of family affection, and it could even be said that she didn't know what family affection was. In her memory, there was only wariness and exploitation between relatives.
She also never thought that the Ye family's love for her would last forever.
But now she understands.
The Ye family was really different. Even though they could barely afford to eat, they were still unwilling to use her gift, simply because they didn't want her to get hurt.
"Anai!" Little Dumpling called in a baby voice, stretching out his little arms and hugging Luo Qiuyue's neck.
"Hey, grandma's little Jiubao!" Luo Qiuyue, who is usually carefree, is feeling heartbroken at this moment.
"Anai, puff-yo-scared!" The little dumpling said word by word.
"Xiaojiu...are you telling Grandma not to be afraid?"
The little dumpling nodded.
Luo Qiuyue looked at the little dumpling's clear and pure eyes and said, "Will it have a bad influence on Xiao Jiuer if he transforms into something?"
The little dumpling's head suddenly shook like a rattle.
No impact, not at all!
God gave her a space with endless supplies, and it certainly wasn't meant for her to enjoy alone!
In the previous life, the space and supplies gradually disappeared because they were exploited by bad people.
But after coming to the Ye family, there are more and more types of space materials. Wouldn’t it be a waste if such good resources were not used?
Luo Qiuyue gently kissed Xiaotuanzi's tender little face, "Then grandma will listen to you? I can't let Xiaojiu's kindness go to waste."
"Anai, great!" Little Dumpling was very happy and gave Luo Qiuyue a kiss on the face.
It’s not easy to finally get her to use her supplies!
Luo Qiuyue felt so soft inside when she was kissed by the little girl's soft little mouth.
No one except her and Ye Buwei knew that they had always wanted a daughter. Now they had a soft and sweet little granddaughter, which made up for some of the regrets...
"Xiao Jiu'er, go with grandma and kill some chickens!"
Luo Qiuyue hugged the little girl and kissed her again and again, as if she was holding the most precious gift in the world, and walked home with a satisfied look on her face.
In the main hall of the Ye family, Ye Yanping was describing the process of finding water with exaggerated details.
"Xiaojiu said, 'Daddy, dig in here!' I didn't hesitate and dug in with a shovel. Wow, water gushed out like a fountain! I lay on it and drank it all up. The water was so sweet..."
Ye Buwei: “…”
I never realized before that my eldest son is such a person.
Ye Yanan and Ye Yanshun licked their dry, chafing lips. "Brother, is it really Xiaojiu? She pointed to that spot and asked you to dig? And water came out as soon as you dug?"
Ye Yanping looked proud, "Of course, I'll dig whatever my daughter tells me to. I'm right to listen to my daughter!"
At this time, Luo Qiuyue came back holding Xiaojiu.
Ye Yanan and Ye Yanshun looked at Xiaojiu as if he was looking at something from outer space.
Ye Yan'an rushed to Xiaojiu in two steps, "Xiaojiu'er, tell your uncle, how did you know there was water there?"
Luo Qiuyue slapped him on the head, "If you know, then you know! Why are you asking?"
Ye Yan'an was full of doubts about his life. "Mom? Why am I being beaten three times a day? Mom, was I picked up?"
"Go and kill the chicken!" Luo Qiuyue looked disgusted.
"Is there meat to eat?" Ye Yan'an's face, which was originally sad, suddenly brightened up. "Mom, how many should we kill?"
"How many?" Luo Qiuyue looked at him in surprise. "How many do you want to kill?"
"We need at least two, right?" Ye Yan'an licked his lips. "There are nine people in our family. If we only have one chicken, it will be gone before we even get to taste it..."
Luo Qiuyue glared at him, "Ye Yan'an, you're getting cocky again, aren't you? Do you think the chicken was blown here by the wind?! One chicken isn't enough for you, right? Why don't you just kill me and stew me in a pot and eat your fill..."
Ye Yan'an jumped three feet high in shock: "Oh my god! I was wrong! One! Just one!"
Given his mother's decades-long stinginess, how could she possibly kill two chickens at once? He shouldn't have asked for trouble!
"Anai!" Xiaojiu's soft baby voice rang out.
Luo Qiuyue suddenly became a different person, and she replied in a long and gentle voice, "Hey - grandma's little Jiuer, grandma is here..."
Xiaojiu stretched out four little fingers and said in a baby voice, "It's a chicken!"
Luo Qiuyue: "Ah?"
"Tie the chicken!" the little dumpling repeated.
"My sister said four!" The translator duo arrived late.
"Xiaojiu wants to kill four chickens?" Luo Qiuyue asked.
"Yeah!"
The little girl smiled sweetly. She had calculated in her mind that three children would eat one and six adults would eat half a piece each, which would add up to four pieces.
As soon as Xiaojiu said this, the whole family's eyes were focused on Luo Qiuyue's face.
"Four then!" Luo Qiuyue said without hesitation, "Whatever Xiaojiu says, that's it! Listen to Xiaojiu!"
Ye Yan'an looked at the little girl with gratitude, and said with tears in his eyes, "Xiao Jiu'er, will Second Uncle be with you from now on?"
He finally realized that from now on, the little baby would be the one in charge of this family.
Luo Qiuyue protected the little girl and said, "Go away! Who asked you, an idiot, to follow me?"
Ye Yan'an tugged at his brother's sleeve and sobbed, "Brother, it seems this family doesn't need me anymore..."
Ye Yanping patted his shoulder and said, "Second brother, it seems you haven't heard a word!"
"What?"
"The eldest is spoiled, the third is indulged, and the second is the unlucky one who suffers!"
…
After noon, the Ye family's kitchen was filled with tempting aromas.
Four chickens were cooked in a big pot, and Yunniang also put some half-dried mushrooms and wood ear mushrooms in it. The aroma of the food was like a small hook, attracting everyone's attention to the big iron pot filled with fragrance.
Next to the stove, the three little ones stood in a row, all standing on tiptoe to pick at the stove, staring eagerly at the golden and fragrant chicken in the pot.
"Slurp——" the sound of saliva came one after another.
"Brother and sister, you haven't eaten chicken yet, right?"
Ye Xiaowen looked like he had seen a lot of the world. "Brother, let me tell you this. If you eat something like a big chicken drumstick once, you're done for!"
