After Descending the Mountain, Seven Big Brothers Spoil Me

Chapter 461 Master of Schemes

The woman was strikingly beautiful, her pale complexion adding a touch of delicacy to her appearance.

Upon hearing Zhouzhou's words, she sighed bitterly.

"I wanted him to help me convey a message to my ex-boyfriend's fiancée, warning her to stay away from him and not to marry him."

At her words, Zhouzhou blinked, casting a knowing glance at the peach blossom pattern on her face. It all became clear.

She had become like this because of the peach blossom curse.

Her ex-boyfriend was surely not a good person either.

After clarifying, Zhouzhou turned to the Taoist and asked, "Do you understand now?"

"Huh?" The Taoist looked bewildered. "Understand what?"

Zhouzhou sighed inwardly. Talking to idiots was exhausting!

She glared at him. "What else could it be? Of course, it's to fulfill their wishes and resolve karmic entanglements!"

Otherwise, should she offer up his tongue for everyone to feast on?

Idiot!

Upon hearing this, the Taoist suddenly realized and nodded hastily, understanding. He then timidly asked, "Little Celestial Master, if I do these things, will they stop bothering me?"

"Why wouldn't they?" Zhouzhou looked at him strangely. "What benefit is there in bothering you? You don't worth a penny; nobody fancies you."

The Taoist nodded in agreement. It made sense.

With a sigh of relief, he promised, "Alright, I understand. I'll handle it properly."

As he spoke, he sighed internally. What a nuisance this all was. He only wanted to earn a bit of money; why did he have to endure this?@@@@

Seemingly sensing his thoughts, Zhouzhou gave him a sideways glance. She found it irksome to see someone less capable than herself, yet earning more.

She huffed, "If you dare to spout nonsense again and cheat people out of their money, you'll have even more misfortune."

The people before him were the best evidence. The Taoist dared not argue and just kept nodding, "I won't, I won't, I really won't."

With that, Zhouzhou waved him off. "Go on then."

"Alright." The Taoist wiped the sweat off his forehead and hurried away.

Several spirits, knowing that he would help fulfill their wishes, quickly followed, and the Taoist ran even faster.

In no time, Zhouzhou was the only one left in the alley.

What flattering? She was still young and didn't understand.

All she knew was that the people she loved couldn't be just one, otherwise, she would become the most miserable person.

Mu Xuan and Lu Qing also smiled at her, this clever little imp, a natural master of flattery.

"Alright, go wash your hands and eat," Grandma Qin said with a smile. "Today's feast is all meat. You'll surely love it."

At her words, Zhouzhou's eyes lit up, and she immediately ran off to wash her hands.

Ye Lingfeng looked at the table full of meat, raised an eyebrow, and suddenly felt that Grandpa Qin's concern was not entirely unfounded.

With this spread, she would gain ten pounds in a day.

Just then, Qin Lie returned home from work. He loosened his tie and looked at the table full of dishes without surprise.

With his mother's temperament, he had long guessed what would happen.

After adding a few vegetarian dishes for the sake of balance, Zhouzhou, who wasn't picky, ate whatever was given to her. With a meal of meat and vegetables, she ate heartily.

After dinner, she sat on a chair, patting her round belly contentedly, unaware of the silent exchange of glances between Mu Xuan, Lu Qing, and Qin Ren.

Qin Ren adjusted his glasses, a hint of cunning flashing in his eyes.

It's time to vie for favor!

He took the lead and said, "Zhouzhou, I heard you've started learning English?"

Upon hearing this, Zhouzhou immediately remembered the few sentences she had learned today and excitedly exclaimed, "Yes, yes! Big Brother, can you teach me? Little Skinny Pole is so good at English, I might not be able to be the first in class anymore."

"Well, that could be troublesome." Qin Ren frowned as if facing a major problem. "If you can't be the first, then you won't get the scholarship."

"Yeah, yeah," Zhouzhou nodded repeatedly, fearing just that.

Grandma Qin glanced at her eldest grandson and couldn't help but roll her eyes.

Endless deceit to coax a child.

But Zhouzhou was completely unaware of being duped. She willingly fell into the trap and ran to him, eagerly holding his hand, her eyes pleading, "Big Brother, can you teach me English?"

"Of course." Qin Ren naturally agreed but then hesitated, "However, I need to teach you other things too, and that will take time..."

At his words, Zhouzhou blinked her big eyes. "It's okay, I'll spend an extra half an hour learning from Big Brother every day!"

As soon as she finished speaking, Mu Xuan and Lu Qing's eyes shot towards Qin Ren simultaneously.

This scheming fellow!
