Chapter 46

Half an hour later.

Shen Qingli looked at the eggs that Mrs. Li brought over, “Niuniu, come here and count if there are 20. If there are more, you can return them or if there are fewer, you can get more.”

“Yes, Mom.” Niu Niu immediately stepped forward and began to count the eggs seriously.

Mrs. Li was so angry that she almost rolled her eyes and whispered, “How can a money-loser count? Don’t count wrongly and accuse me.”

Shen Qingli ignored her. Niuniu took the eggs and counted them at the same time.

After counting, Niu Niu said loudly, “My mother taught me to count and read, and I learned very quickly, unlike some stupid kids who couldn’t learn anything in school and were sent back by the teacher.”

The stupid kid that Niu Niu mentioned is Li Yaozu.

Li Yaozu studied for two years but still couldn’t learn arithmetic, so the teacher had no choice but to send him back.

People in the village often laughed at Mrs. Li for this, but Mrs. Li didn’t care. She felt that her family’s honor just hadn’t come yet. When the opportunity came, she would naturally soar to the sky!

Now that Niuniu, the girl whom she used to bully, was scolding her in person, she was so angry that she raised her hand and slapped him.

Woof! Woof!

Da Huang and Xiao Hei shouted together and stared at Mrs. Li.

Mrs. Li shuddered and quickly pulled her hand back.

“I-I’ll get the basket.”

“Take it away. We don’t need a basket. Mrs. Li, please don’t bother us again. My Yu Bai has a bad temper.” Shen Qingli said in a calm voice.

Li Po Zi picked up the basket and ran away. At her family, Li Dazhuang was beating Li Yaozu. Thinking of his precious grandson, Li Po Zi speeded up.

Shen Qingli released her mental power, and when Mrs. Li returned home, she activated her wood-related abilities.

Mrs. Li fell to the ground with a thud and screamed in pain!

“Oh, Da Zhuang, I can’t get up!” shouted Mrs. Li.

Li Dazhuang was beating Li Yaozu so hard that he was screaming and howling like a ghost and didn’t hear Li Pozi’s voice at all.

Mrs. Li struggled to sit up, but she still couldn’t stand up. She felt as if her legs were broken!

Finally, Li Dali came out and saw Mrs. Li. He shouted and everyone rushed out and carried Mrs. Li into the house.

Mrs. Li was in so much pain that Li Dali ran to find Doctor Zhang.

After examination, Dr. Zhang determined that it was a fracture. After treatment, Mrs. Li had to stay in bed.

Shen Qingli withdrew her mental power.

Mrs. Li is bedridden and won’t be a nuisance for the time being.

Shen Qingli looked at Niu Niu again. The little girl was not affected by Mrs. Li and was happily feeding the little rabbit.

Da Huang and Xiao Hei were with her.

Shen Qingli curled her lips. It was really good for Niuniu to be like this. She should keep in mind what she should keep in mind, and not care about unimportant people and things.

Shen Qingli returned to the kitchen and continued working.

Zhou Yubai and Gou Wa rode their bicycles around the foot of the mountain, and Gou Wa took Zhou Yubai to a nearby cave.

The cave is not difficult to find, and villagers often take shelter from the rain in it.

“Dad, come in with me.” Gou Wa looked around vigilantly, made sure there was no one around, and pulled Zhou Yubai in.

Zhou Yubai followed Gou Wa.

The two men walked to the innermost part of the cave.

Gou Wa squatted on the ground, moved a stone with difficulty, and started digging.

Zhou Yubai stepped forward and said, “Let me do it.”

Gou Wa made way, and Zhou Yubai quickly dug out a wooden box using the stones nearby.

He took out the wooden box, put it on the ground, and was about to open it.

“Dad, let’s go home and take a look.” said Gou Wa.

“Okay.” Zhou Yubai responded and restored the ground to its original state.

“If we hold it like this, someone will see us.” Gou Wa looked at Zhou Yubai worriedly. He had decided to come out to dig at the spur of the moment and didn’t bring anything with him.

“It’s okay. Just find some branches to weave a basket and put some grass on it.” Zhou Yubai said as he walked out.

Gou Wa followed and he went to pull weeds.

Zhou Yubai quickly made the basket, put the wooden box in it and put the grass on top.

Zhou Yubai rode his bike with Gou Wa, who carried the basket on his back, and the two of them quickly returned to the yard.

I didn’t meet anyone along the way.

It was not until he entered the door that Gou Wa felt relieved.

The two men put the wooden box into the house and went to the kitchen together.

The aroma of food is already wafting out of the kitchen.

“You’re back.” Shen Qingli smiled, “We can eat soon.”

“Rui Rui, go call Niuniu, wash your hands and have dinner.”

“Okay, mother.”

After changing the names of Gou Wa and his sister, Shen Qingli called Gou Wa Ruirui.

There was no malicious meaning in Niu Niu’s name, so Shen Qingli continued to call her Niu Niu.

Zhou Yubai was helping Shen Qingli in the kitchen. “Rui Rui and I took the things out.”

Shen Qingli was stunned for a moment, then came over. Zhou Yubai was talking about the things left by Gou Wa’s mother.

“Well, what are they?” Shen Qingli asked curiously.

“I haven’t watched it yet. It’s in my room. Let’s watch it together after dinner.”

Shen Qingli nodded.

“When you two were out, Li Yaozu from Mrs. Li’s family came.” Shen Qingli told Zhou Yubai about what happened when Li Yaozu wanted to recognize his father.

Zhou Yubai frowned in disdain.

“Are you feeling unwell?”

“I’m fine. I’m in good health now. I just don’t want to go out. I only pretend occasionally.”

The two of them were chatting idly.

Soon the food was ready and the two of them brought it to the table. Gou Wa also brought Niu Niu over.

Niu Niu was having a lot of fun and had a bright smile on her face.

Seeing the delicious food on the table, “Mom, it smells so good.”

“Yes, Niuniu and Ruirui, come and eat.” Shen Qingli invited the two little ones to eat.

After dinner, the four of them returned to their room together.

Zhou Yubai took out the wooden box, looked at Gou Wa and Niu Niu, and then opened the wooden box.

Everyone stared at the wooden box, which was filled with gold bars!

Shen Qingli’s eyes lit up. Gou Wa and his friends’ mother was quite rich.

“All of these are for my parents.” Gou Wa said solemnly.

Zhou Yubai and Shen Qingli exchanged glances.

“Okay, keep these for now, and we will use them on you in the future, but don’t tell anyone about this, remember?” Shen Qingli warned.

“Dad and Mom, we won’t tell.” Gou Wa and Niu Niu agreed together.

Niuniu shook her little hair, “Niuniu is so well behaved, she listens to her mother the most.”

Shen Qingli was so happy that she picked up Niu Niu and kissed her several times.

The four of them talked for a while, and then it was dark, so Gou Wa took Niuniu to bed.

Shen Qingli and Zhou Yubai also lay down.

At first, the two were chatting, and then they kissed… and then… the night became hot.

The next morning, Shen Qingli got up early and made breakfast. Zhou Yubai had to go to work today.

Gou Wa and Niu Niu also got up early. Gou Wa went to clean the yard while Niu Niu went to feed the little rabbits.

The family members are all busy with their own things, and it’s very warm.

After breakfast, Zhou Yubai was about to go out, and Shen Qingli followed him for a few steps.

“Yubai, I’m going up the mountain to pick some herbs today.” Shen Qingli said.

“Are you going alone?”
