"How will Long Er's family divide all that money?"
"Anyway, it won't be given to this silly kid."
"Strange things happen every year, but this year there seem to be more than usual. Tell me, how did this lightning strike? And it was such a coincidence. The Long family is really unlucky."
"Oh my, this little city kid is so handsome! Look at his face, how come he's so good-looking..."
...This was the first time Qi Qi had ever seen such a scene. A large group of people were chatting and gossiping, not like they were there to help, but more like they were there to gossip. Their tone didn't sound sad.
The sky was still gloomy, the ground was wet, and everyone's faces were hard to see. Qi Qi listened to them talk about Long Xiaofan, Lei, and the house, and then they mentioned that the Long family was really unlucky.
Long Xiaofan's second uncle's family didn't seem to be very popular in the village.

Seeing that Long Xiaofan's eyes were about to turn in that direction, Qi Qi subconsciously stood on tiptoe and turned his head in another direction.
Don't look there.
Long Xiaofan obediently looked to the other side, feeling Qi Qi's slightly cold fingers, and wrapped her hand around Qi Qi's: "What's wrong, little brother? Is there something there?"
Qi Qi said, "The child saw something that gave him nightmares at night."
