A Cutie Spoiled by Her Seven Uncles Chapter 537: Aren’t You Afraid of Scaring the Child?

"What happened?" Seeing her frown, Ji Youzhi felt sowhat worried and quickly asked.

"Weren’t we looking for the gold my Third Uncle lost? Why are you giving the cloth from my Second Uncle’s dicine box?" Xiaosuisui covered her nose, a look of disgust on her face.

"It’s all because of your Second Uncle, that jinx. He and your Third Uncle’s trusted aide, Jin Ge, both stayed at this inn the night before last, so their boxes were lost together."

At those words, Xiaosuisui blinked, then two tears began to fall. "BOOHOOHOO... So that’s what happened!"

Seeing her crying, Ji Youzhi panicked. "Hey... Don’t cry! What’s wrong? Just slow down and tell Seventh Uncle what happened, okay? Don’t cry, please? My little ancestor!"

Xiaosuisui suddenly let out a "WAH!" and began sobbing loudly, her face full of distress. "I... I think I know what happened?"

She sobbed and sniffled, using the back of her little hand to wipe her tears. Seeing this, General Dugu hurriedly offered her a small handkerchief. "Use this! Don’t rub your eyes red."

Xiaosuisui took it, didn’t even voice a thank you, wiped her tears with the handkerchief, and directly stowed it away in her little purse.

Dugu Xiao was speechless. He was just lending it, hey! He didn’t say he was giving it away! How could the Princess be so unceremonious?

"From your behavior, you already know what happened the night before last? Why did your Third Uncle’s and Second Uncle’s boxes disappear at the sa ti?"

Xiaosuisui nodded. "My Second Uncle is a jinx. He lost his box, so any boxes connected to his would naturally get caught up in the bad luck too!"

Upon hearing this, Ji Youzhi was dumbfounded. He tried to recall... back when Second Brother had bad luck as a child, if he himself was nearby... Ugh... He really didn’t dare to dwell on it. Shaking his head vigorously, he asked, "So, can you find where the boxes are now?"

Xiaosuisui nodded, then began her finger calculations.

Ji Youzhi widened his eyes in anticipation, while Dugu Xiao asked in disbelief, "The Princess also knows the art of divining heavenly secrets?"

"My Second Sister-in-law is a Daoist Sorcerer; Xiaosuisui learned it from her," Ji Youzhi explained.

Upon hearing this, Dugu Xiao suddenly understood. "No wonder Old Eight said she could lead us to the gold. So that’s how it is!"

Then a golden gleam appeared in his eyes. He imdiately crouched down, looking at Xiaosuisui with an intense, hopeful gaze. "Princess, you absolutely must calculate accurately! The refugees in Yunhang are all counting on this money to save their lives!"

Upon hearing this, Xiaosuisui lowered her hands and chuckled, "Don’t you worry! My calculations are spot on. I’ll definitely get all the gold back!"

Dugu Xiao blinked at her words. "Really? Where is the gold? Have you figured it out yet?"

Xiaosuisui nodded vigorously. "I’ve figured it out! I’ll take you there right now!" After speaking, she stretched out her small hands towards Ji Youzhi, asking for a hug.

Seeing her motion, Ji Youzhi skillfully scooped her up. Then, while walking outside, he instructed Dugu Xiao, "Make sure you keep up!"

Dugu Xiao scoffed, "I am the renowned General Dugu. You think I can’t keep up with a Head Constable carrying a baby?"

Just as he finished speaking, the Princess’s childlike voice reached his ears, "Feifei!!"

Dugu Xiao blinked, standing rooted to the spot for a mont, unable to react.

A mont later, he exclaid, "Damn it, Ji Youzhi! Using your lightness skill while carrying a child—aren’t you afraid of scaring her!"
