After Descending the Mountain, Seven Big Brothers Spoil Me

Chapter 506 Relying on the Younger Generation

After Zhouzhou finished speaking, she sat on the bed with a vacant stare. Her chubby little hands deftly calculated something, and finally, she smiled contentedly and declared, "Safe."@@@@

Then her plump body tumbled back onto the bed, clutching the quilt, and she continued to sleep soundly.

Seeing this, the Ancestral Master exhaled deeply, wiping the sweat from his forehead. He had been startled, thinking she was still coveting about his merits in her sleep.

Hastily, he put on his shoes, covering his golden toes, afraid that the little girl might see them and become covetous again.

His merits were hard-earned and couldn't be squandered any further. He wasn't sure when he would fully recover.

He calculated again and his frown gradually relaxed. It was close, indeed close. His vision had been accurate; he had chosen Zhouzhou, who was indeed capable.

Being an old man relying on the younger generation was truly delightful. Self-satisfied, he saw that Zhouzhou was sleeping soundly, so he said nothing and returned to the statue to continue his cultivation.

Zhouzhou, too, in her dream, held her large golden mountain and slept blissfully. When she opened her eyes the next day, she smacked her lips, jumped out of bed with renewed vigor, and set off for school to earn money.

Seeing her come out, Grandma Qin beckoned, "Zhouzhou, come, wash your hands and eat."

"Okay!" Zhouzhou climbed onto the stool, washed her hands, and then took a comb to Qin Lie, asking him to help her with her hair. Looking around, she asked in puzzlement, "Where's Sharp Tongue Daddy? Hasn't he come yet?"

Recently, Ye Lingfeng had been eating at the Qin household because it was inconvenient to cook for just one person. Qin Lie explained, "He had some business to attend to."

Hearing this, Zhouzhou understood he was on a mission and nodded knowingly. She seemed to have heard about this last night in her sleep and even divined a fortune for him.

Still uneasy, Zhouzhou cast another divination to be sure everything was fine before she relaxed and ran to the table to start eating.

Qin Ren helped her with the food, his eyes full of affection. He remembered something and said, "By the way, Zhouzhou, the entrance exam is scheduled for this Friday."

"So soon?" Zhouzhou was startled and became nervous, holding her bowl uneasily, "Big brother, what if I can't pass?"

Glaring at her, Qin Bei fell silent. Zhouzhou covered her mouth, giggling, and patted his shoulder, "Don't worry, Sixth Brother. I can tutor you for one yuan per lesson."

Qin Bei's mouth twitched, and he thought of something.

His eyes lit up as he whispered to Zhouzhou, "Zhouzhou, if you deliberately do poorly on the exam, I'll give you more money than the scholarship. Deal?"

Before Zhouzhou could respond, a cold hand placed on his neck, sending a chill down his spine and freezing him in place. Qin Ren removed his glasses and glanced at him, "What did you say?"

Hearing his calm yet dangerous tone, Qin Bei shook his head repeatedly, "N-nothing. I didn't say anything!"

"All right, don't scare him," Grandma Qin intervened. "He's already foolish; don't make him any worse."

Qin Ren let go and gave Zhouzhou a gentle smile, offering her more food. His demeanor had completely changed. Feeling even more aggrieved, Qin Bei pouted and silently resumed eating.

Noticing his mood, Zhouzhou pulled out candy from her bag and handed it to him, "Sixth Brother is very smart."

Qin Bei's displeasure vanished, and he held his head high. Exactly!

The Qin family members couldn't help but laugh. They didn't dwell on it. After Zhouzhou finished eating, Qin Lie took the children to school.

When they arrived, Huo Ji'an was already there, reading a book. He had started late and didn't want to lose his chubby girl. Qin Lie took Zhouzhou out of the car, holding her hand tightly.

Zhouzhou excitedly waved to Huo Ji'an, "Little Skinny Pole!"

"Chubby Girl!" Huo Ji'an closed his book and ran over, greeting Qin Lie politely, "Hello, Uncle Qin."

"Sure," Qin Lie responded indifferently. Huo Ji'an didn't mind; he was used to her father's demeanor. Zhouzhou told Huo Ji'an about the exam on Friday.

Counting on his fingers, Huo Ji'an's face turned anxious. "Oh no, I'm not prepared."

Qin Lie overheard and raised an eyebrow, glancing at the children and pondering. If Huo Ji'an didn't pass...
