Chapter Two: My Little Fortune!

hift huts outside the city walls. Those coming and going to pay their taxes resided there and registered themselves.As soon as the people from Dàhuái Tree and Dà/Xiǎo Wáng Zhuāng arrived here, acquain...Li Laosi followed his wife's finger and glanced over, immediately throwing down his tricycle and dashing out.

Tao Hongying held the child and, along with two bags of grain, tumbled out of the car.

The Li family was startled and rushed forward to help.

Old Mrs. Li snatched the girl from her arms, her face flushed with anger. "My precious little one!" she cried, then scolded harshly.

"What wind did Lao Si get into, breaking my granddaughter I'll fight him to the death!"

As a result, Old Li Si actually carried back a dairy goat, grinning widely and laughing out loud.

His shoulder was soaked in the white, milky liquid, and with such delight that everyone stared wide-eyed.

"Oh, oh, what a good thing! Heaven has opened its eyes, it's actually a dairy goat!"

"Great, great! Little sister has milk to drink!"

Li Lao Tai even more heavily kissed her granddaughter's forehead twice.

"Aren't you the apple of heaven's eye You're so lucky, it's as if they sent this milk just for you!"

Li Jia Yin puffed up her little mouth with a smug expression and let out a small bubble of saliva.

This is her provision for herself!

When Ji'an and Ji-xi were eight or nine years old, mischievous as they were, they sneaked forward and secretly touched their little sister's cheek.

Needless to say, the old woman immediately slapped him back.

"Look, we're just going to pat each other and collect some good luck. Maybe we'll even find a sheep later!"

"Go, do you think this good thing is a cabbage, just pick it at random!"

Li Lao Tai laughed and scolded, it was a time of great joy, but Li La Er's daughter-in-law Wu Cuifang had no sense, she swallowed her saliva while saying.

“Mother, goat’s milk is nothing compared to a mother’s own milk. Why not kill the goat and stew it Redying could have some meat broth, that would help her produce milk.”

Everyone's face turned grim upon hearing this. Li Lao Tai slammed the smoking pot in her hand, causing Wu Guihua to jump three feet high from the pain.

"Good for nothing, all you know how to do is eat! You're the laziest of us all on this journey, and now you even want to stew the little girl's milk sheep! Are you trying to ascend to heaven"

Wu Cuiflower was most afraid of her mother-in-law, so she didn't dare to retort. She simply ran away.

Li Laoer hurriedly apologized for his wife.

"Mother, she's always a simpleton, don't lower yourself to her level. This goat is for feeding the little girl, no one in the house can touch it, you can rest assured."

Li Jia Yin saw everyone had forgotten she was still hungry, so she quickly complained a few times.

The child was soft and small, with long eyelashes like little fans. Her big, dark eyes stared at Li Lao Tai, making her change from annoyance to a smile.

"Oh, my little sweetheart, are you hungry Grandma will make some goat milk for you right away!"

Just a little while after they had set off, the Li family’s team stopped again because of a nanny goat. They found some shade to build a fire and boil the goat’s milk.

Cook a large batch at once and store it in a big gourd. Whenever you feel hungry, just have some. Don't delay your journey any longer.

A few of the kids in the family couldn't contain their excitement and were running around playing nearby.

Li Jiayin was lying in her grandma's arms, drinking the fragrant goat milk, her bright big eyes rolling around.

Put several dozen eggs in the grass in front of An's home, and place a lame old hen behind a tree not far from Xi's house.

Soon, the Li family team was bustling with activity again.

Jīa'ān jumped three feet high, holding the two eggs in his hands and shouting.

"Milk, milk, it's an egg, I found an egg!"

Li La Er hurried over, and at once saw a nest of ten or so eggs. He was so surprised he didn't know what to say.

Before he could turn back to give his family the good news, Jixiang, following the clucking sound, pulled the hen out again.

He himself seemed unable to believe it, he strained and lifted the hen, shouting a word to his second uncle, "Chicken!"

"Silly boy, come back! What are you waiting for"

Old Li waved the smoking pot in her hand and gestured towards the distance.

It turned out the boys were shouting too loudly, and nearby people fleeing the war came over to see what was going on.

Wealth does not reveal itself, it seems the Li family has fooled outsiders.

Li Laosi got off his unicycle, drew out his chopper, and glared fiercely at the people surrounding him.

As expected, those people seemed a bit embarrassed and hesitant. They glanced at Jia Xi and Jia An before ultimately retreating back.

Jiā xǐ jiā ān xià pò le dǎn zi, gǎn jìn pǎo huí jiā lǐ rén zhī jiān, dàn yī jiù méi wàng le xuàn yào. He was so scared that he ran back to his family and friends, but he didn't forget to boast.

"Look, Mama! We found a hen and eggs! We touched our little sister, we're so lucky!"

The Lee family all smiled, feeling in their hearts that it was probably a coincidence.

But Old Lady Li couldn't help but wonder, a coincidence once, twice was still a coincidence, what about three times

She gently touched her granddaughter's little hand. The little girl was sleeping soundly, sweetly smelling, her eyelashes fluttering lightly. Anyone looking at her would melt like honey.

She instructed the third daughter-in-law, “Boil some eggs for Hongying to supplement her body, and stew the hen in broth later tonight when it returns home.”

After she said this, she made an excuse and went into the woods.

The woods were bare, with hardly a blade of grass left green. After searching for a while, she was somewhat disappointed.

Just as I was about to get up, I noticed a patch of sweet potato vines growing not far from me.

She dashed over in three or two steps, pulled up a sweet potato, and it was as big as two fists, which made her eyes well up.

She ran back like crazy, snatched the granddaughter and burst into tears.

"Oh, oh, ancestors bless us, God open your eyes, all the gods and Buddhas! Oh, oh, our old Li family is really blessed. Oh, oh, so lucky!"

The entire Li family was startled by the old woman and quickly tried to persuade her.

"Mother, what's wrong with you"

"Yes, Mother, with us here, you won't suffer."

Only Jiayin, who was almost suffocated by the old woman's grip, knew this.

Because she moved the sweet potato vines from the space and planted them in that faraway forest, she was so exhausted that she was still dizzy right now.

A newborn baby, less than a day old, has to work so hard just to stay alive for its family. That's really tough.

But she had to make it clear that she was lucky, and this had to be etched in the hearts of all members of the Li family.

This way, it will be convenient for her to utilize the space later and help the family solve their basic needs...

"The fourth brother stays home, the second and third brothers take a covered basket with me!"

Li Laotai wiped away her tears, kissed her beloved granddaughter one more time, and then went to dig sweet potatoes.

Jia Yin could finally sleep peacefully, she had been fed twice with goat's milk during the period. When she fully woke up, it was already dark outside.

She was held in Li Laotai's arms, before her a bonfire blazed, and by its side sat boys drooling...

When Old Mrs. Li saw her granddaughter awake, she quickly turned her back and helped her with the diaper, a smile blooming on her face.

"My precious granddaughter is awake, let's have some milk in a little while."

Jiale looked at her grandma expectantly, "Grandma, when can we eat roasted sweet potatoes"

"Eat, eat, all you do is eat!" The old woman glared at her grandson and hissed in a low voice.

"Remember this, you lot! All these good things we get at home are because of your sister's blessings. You have to be kind to her from now on. If any of you dare bully her, I'll break your legs!"

Several young men quickly nodded their heads. Li Lao Tai looked again at the remaining bonfires in the distance, and lowered her voice even further.

Others are still hungry, but our family has eggs to eat, goat's milk to drink, stewed chicken, and baked sweet potatoes. It's even better than life at home.

Close your mouths, you hear The meat needs to simmer properly. Do you understand”ble, easily becoming timid and cowardly.Jia Yin stood beside her grandmother, looking pitifully at the carriage as it drove away. Her big eyes were filled with envy.Li Laotai turned back and saw her,...
