Chapter 62 We can only stay if we squander everything.



Xiao Youran pouted, "I already reminded you last night to eat less meat and more rice and vegetables. Right, brother?"

Jiang Youchen stood up for his sister without hesitation, "Yes, my sister reminded you several times last night!"

Yun Tianyi said angrily, "You must have done it on purpose! You deliberately cooked all the meat and vegetables and then distributed them to the whole village!" It's obvious that you don't want them to have an easy life.

Jiang Youchen was furious. "During the day, I heard that several other villagers' children had stomach problems, and they were all grateful and didn't cause trouble in front of us, unlike you, you ungrateful wretch!"

Yun Tianyi looked at Yun Tiankuang, "Third Brother! He called me an ungrateful wretch! Why don't you say anything?"

Yun Tiankuang remained unmoved like a mountain, and slowly said, "I think my cousin is right to scold me."

Yun Tianyi: ? ? ?

"Are you even my real brother?!"

Yun Tiankuang's eyes darkened. "If you keep making noise, go back to your room. Don't stay here!"

Unbeknownst to him, this ten-year-old child had developed a sense of authority as the head of the family.

Yun Manyin tugged at her younger brother's sleeve, "Tianyi, stop fooling around."

As they were talking, Zhou's sisters-in-law escorted Old Madam Yun in and sat down. Liu Mama also led Hongyu to bring out the last dish.

Zhou sat down next to Old Madam Yun and said with a smile, "Cousin Su, since you came, Xiao Youran has managed to create such a situation for us. I must thank you properly. The conditions are simple now, so I can only offer you a cup of tea instead of wine. Consider it a welcome feast for you and your mother."

Madam Su smiled and picked up her teacup. "Sister-in-law, you're too kind. Little Youran just stumbled upon this by chance. It's all part of the Yun family's good fortune. The Yun family will only get better and better."

Zhou and the others found these words very pleasing. They drank their tea in one gulp, then picked up their chopsticks. "Eat up, it's just simple food, I hope you won't find it offensive."

Madam Su glanced at Old Madam Yun and said in a low voice, "Aunt, please have your meal."

The old lady calmly replied, "You have shown filial piety."

Suddenly, Su felt a lump in her throat and quickly picked up her chopsticks, took a dish, and put it in her mouth to hide the bitterness in her heart.

She knew that her aunt's rejection and exclusion of her yesterday were not directed at her, but at the Su family.

She said this to show that her aunt had accepted her filial piety.

Mrs. Li enthusiastically served food to Xiao Youran, saying, "Our little Ranran, you must eat more. You did a great job yesterday!"

Little You Ran said cutely, "Yes, it was Baby who asked Aunt Zhao to cook all the food we brought and share it with everyone."

She shamelessly took all the credit for cooking, but never mentioned the life-saving grace or the credit for taking down those three mountains for the Yun family.

The eldest daughter, Yun Manwan, glanced at Xiao Youran, wondering if she had said it on purpose.

Xiao Youran then pointed at Jiang Youchen, "Brother always says that I'm a spendthrift, but I'm going to spend all the things we bought with the Su family's money!"

Jiang Youchen perked up: The time has come for him to take the blame!

He chuckled foolishly, "It's good that we've squandered everything. Only when we've squandered everything can we stay. Don't you think so, Great-Aunt?"

The Zhou family members all gave him a look that said, "You're very brave."

Madam Yun spoke up, "The weather has cleared up today, and it should be fine tomorrow as well. You three should pack your things and head back early tomorrow morning."

The chopsticks in Su's hand represent a meal.

Little Youran asked with a grin, "Grandma, I want to play here for a few more days. There might be little rabbits on the mountain. Can I go up the mountain with my brother tomorrow to see them?"

Madam Yun couldn't bring herself to refuse.

This little girl just earned these three mountains for them, how can I refuse to let her go up the mountain to play in the blink of an eye?

She could only smile gently at Xiao Youran and say, "The hillside was slippery from the flood yesterday, so the road will definitely be very slippery tomorrow. You should go in a few days."

Xiao Youran naturally had no objections, clapping her hands and laughing, "Okay, okay, thank you, great-aunt. We'll go play again in a few days."

Zhou could clearly sense that Su seemed to have breathed a sigh of relief.

She was secretly puzzled as to why her cousin from the Su family wanted to stay here so much.

It was obvious that she didn't want to leave Sanyang Village.

If it were before, she could understand that her cousin from the Su family was well-off and could help the Yun family a lot.

But yesterday her mother-in-law told her in such a stern tone that she would never accept the Su family's aid and gifts. Does this Su family cousin still want to stay in Sanyang Village?

As they were eating, Yun Tiankuang suddenly asked Xiao Youran, "Little cousin, did you deliberately have those kids call their parents over yesterday? Especially Niuwa's grandma, she didn't want to come at all, but you called her anyway. Did you know something was going to happen to their house?"

Little Youran blinked her big eyes innocently at her third cousin. "Third cousin, what did you say? How could I do it on purpose? I just heard him say that his grandma is all alone at home, and she's so pitiful. That's why I asked him to go back and bring his grandma over for dinner. Didn't they all say they haven't had meat in a long time? So I asked them to call all the adults in the family over."

Yun Tiankuang scratched his head: ...

Is that so?

Li praised, "Little Youran is so kind-hearted, she's truly adorable!"

Mrs. Su immediately chimed in, "That's right, our little Ranran is just so kind-hearted and incredibly adorable!"

Jiang Youchen: ...

Guo snorted coldly, not wanting to speak.

Xiao Youran quickly changed the subject, "I'm thinking of going up the mountain to play in a few days. Do any of you older brothers and sisters want to come with me?"

Yun Tiankuang instinctively wanted to raise his hand, but then he remembered that his grandmother was still at the table and had clearly expressed her disapproval. So he could only look longingly at his mother.

Zhou smiled and said, "Sanyang Mountain is already ours. You can go if you want, but it's best to wait a couple of days until the soil dries out a bit, otherwise you might slip and fall."

Yun Tiankuang's eyes immediately lit up.

He had never climbed a mountain before.

...

However, the next day, Xiao Youran did not have the patience to wait a few more days.

Last night, after eating and drinking her fill and washing up, she went to bed early and finally remembered the little notebook she used for keeping accounts.

As she pressed the bracelet to summon the mental notebook, a dialog box popped up: "Your luck value has exceeded 30. Do you wish to select automatic detection mode?"

Automatic detection is certainly convenient and saves time and effort, so she decisively chose yes.

Upon closer inspection, they were pleasantly surprised to find that their luck value had increased to 46.

It must be the twenty-odd people she saved yesterday, and perhaps some of the gratitude points contributed by the Yun family.

I never expected so many more to appear overnight.

I wonder what this luck value can bring me besides keeping track of expenses and making wishes?
