A Cutie Spoiled by Her Seven Uncles Chapter 15: Break His Leg If He Attempts to Leave

The crowd began to hurl various harsh words at Li Suisui.

They figured that by speaking more ill of Suisui, the Star of Calamity, in front of Li Yanyan, the Lucky Star, they might also catch so of Li Yanyan’s good fortune.

Li Yanyan stood obediently and cleverly in the Courtyard, basking in everyone’s complints. She was reveling in all the attention.

Hearing everyone curse Li Suisui made her absolutely thrilled.

That Star of Calamity, Li Suisui, affected my luck for so many years, and now she’s finally dead.

If not for Li Suisui, that Star of Calamity, the Li Family might have already beco extrely wealthy, and I would have beco a young lady of a wealthy family long ago!

As she was thinking this, she heard soone suggest, "Let’s finish worshipping the Li Family’s ancestors and then go to the Star of Calamity’s grave to curse at it. Let’s send off that source of bad luck for good. What do you all say?"

Everyone agreed to this proposal.

Especially Li Yanyan, who vigorously nodded her little head, like a chick pecking at rice grains.

Mother said that Star of Calamity, Li Suisui, blocked my path to becoming a young lady of a wealthy family.

Now that she’s dead, I’ll soon beco a young lady!

People in the Li Family’s Courtyard began to busily set about. Third Aunt silently took her leave.

When Third Aunt arrived ho, Suisui was rubbing her eyes, having just woken up.

Old Lady Ji and Eldest Aunt were helping Suisui apply so ointnt. When Third Aunt returned, Old Lady Ji took her into the adjacent room to talk.

After Eldest Aunt dressed her, she told Suisui to take her dicine, as usual.

The little Girl, upon seeing the dark dicinal soup, ran away.

"I don’t want to take the dicine."

"Suisui dear, we’ve got preserved fruit; the dicine won’t be bitter."

Even with the promise of preserved fruit, she refused to take the dicine.

The little Girl got off the bed, intending to hide in the other room, but just as she reached the door, she heard Third Aunt saying from inside, "It’s said that Li’s second son is going to the Capital City to beco the general shopkeeper, and the third one bought a courtyard and a stall. From now on, he’s going to slaughter pigs and sell the at himself."

Third Aunt was truly reluctant to share this news; the Li Family’s luck had been excessively good these past few years.

"Who’s going to slaughter pigs himself?"

The little Girl was confused. She went into the room and snuggled into her Grandma’s arms to avoid Eldest Aunt’s bitter dicine.

"Your Third Uncle. He’s going to slaughter pigs and sell the at himself," Third Aunt blurted out, not noticing her mother-in-law’s warning glance.

"If Third Uncle slaughters pigs himself, will he get bullied by the pigs? Pigs are so big and fierce; Third Uncle definitely can’t kill one!"

To four-and-a-half-year-old Suisui, her Third Uncle slaughtering pigs himself ant that he would be slaughtering a pig all by himself. She couldn’t understand any deeper aning.

Grandma and her two aunts didn’t dwell on it; they instinctively tried to shield Suisui from matters concerning the Li Family.

Seeing Eldest Aunt holding out the dicine with a smile, Suisui didn’t want to drink it. Her mind raced, and she quickly tried to change the subject. "Third Aunt just said that my Second Uncle is going to be the general shopkeeper, right?"

The little Girl burrowed her head into Grandma’s arms again. Old Lady Ji understood her intent to avoid drinking the dicine and played along, saying, "Yes, my darling, don’t worry about it too much. From now on, you’ll have nothing to do with the Li Family. From now on, you’re our Ji Family’s Ji Suisui."

"Okay! Suisui won’t think too much. Then, Grandma, what’s a general shopkeeper?"

When I was with the Li Family, everyone said Second Uncle was the shopkeeper of Fuman Building. He was incredibly impressive and earned a lot of money every month.

Now that Second Uncle has beco the general shopkeeper, isn’t he even more impressive than before?

Yanyan truly is a little Lucky Star!

"A general shopkeeper ans Li’s second son is going to the Capital City to manage all Fuman Building establishnts nationwide—the account books, personnel..." While explaining, Third Aunt finally noticed her mother-in-law’s warning look and quickly shut her mouth.

"Second Uncle is going to the Capital City? Won’t he walk so much his legs break?"

The little Girl felt a bit distressed. Previously, when her Fourth Uncle went to the Capital City for his exams, she had asked her Grandma where the Capital City was and if it was far from Ling Village. Grandma had told her that the Capital City was very far, so far that walking there would wear out her little short legs until they broke.

"..."

At a aningful glance from their mother-in-law, both Eldest Aunt and Third Aunt tactfully refrained from continuing the conversation.

They made a ntal note: in the future, they would not ntion the Li Family in front of Suisui.
