Ji Youlin’s words earned him a fierce kick from Old Lady Ji, landing squarely on his calf.
"If opening the Sky Eye isn’t impressive, why don’t you open one and show your mother? How old is Xiaosuisui, and how old are you? Besides, do you think your achievents are so remarkable? Let tell you, look what you’ve beco! You suddenly appear before , looking like such a ss, I could easily mistake you for a beggar. And you still have the nerve to criticize others here?"
Ji Youlin’s face burned. He felt his mother was no longer his mother. Only she could say such heart-piercing things to her son.
"You’re no mother!" Ji Youlin retorted. "I just don’t understand! That little girl almost killed Eldest Brother just now. If Second Brother hadn’t been at the Inn and treated Eldest Brother in ti, you’d be a white-haired mother mourning her black-haired son by now! So why are you still pampering this little girl like she’s so treasure?"
Ji Youlin had been raised by his eldest brother, Ji Youyuan. More than half of the dicinal ingredients Ji Youran used to concoct the elixir for Ji Youyuan had been painstakingly gathered from the outside by Ji Youlin himself. He did it all in the hope that one day his eldest brother’s legs could be cured. But he never expected that, although the dicine was successfully concocted, it would be rendered useless by a re child’s reckless interference. So what if the dicine was now useless? At least it had transford into a rare treasure, hadn’t it? Perhaps in the future, they could use this treasure to trade for other dicinal ingredients capable of treating his eldest brother’s legs? But he never, ever expected that, because of this little girl again, his most respected eldest brother would be nearly killed! Unbelievable...
Ji Youlin swore that if this little toddler in front of him weren’t his only sister’s flesh and blood, he would have thrown her out onto the Main Street today!
Looking at the indignant expression on Ji Youran’s face, Old Lady Ji knew what he was thinking without needing to ask. She snorted coldly and said to Ji Youlin, "I just hope that when you occasionally think back on today in the future, you won’t have any regrets!"
Ji Youlin responded without hesitation, "What? Are you trying to threaten over a little slip of a girl? I’m telling you in all seriousness, I will absolutely never regret today. Absolutely not."
Old Lady Ji scoffed, "Heh! You don’t need to be responsible; you just need to rember."
With that, she carried Xiaosuisui over to Ji Youyuan. Pointing at Ji Youyuan, who was ditating with his eyes closed, diligently absorbing the dicinal effects, she asked Xiaosuisui, "My sweet Xiaosuisui! Since you’ve opened your Sky Eye, take a look. Can your Eldest Maternal Uncle’s legs be healed?"
At this mont, Xiaosuisui had no idea what ’opening the Sky Eye’ even ant. She only knew that when she focused her gaze, a ball of red light was circling around her Eldest Maternal Uncle’s crossed legs as he sat there!
Seeing Xiaosuisui intently studying Ji Youyuan’s legs, Wang Dongxue watched her with anxious hope, her heart pounding in her chest.
"Well?" Wang Dongxue asked.
Xiaosuisui didn’t know what to say. She pondered for a good while, but before she could utter a word, Ji Youlin, from the side, spoke up resentfully, "What could a little child possibly know? She doesn’t know anything about dical skills. If you’re going to ask anyone, you should be asking Second Brother!"
By now, Old Lady Ji found the re sound of Ji Youlin’s voice grating. Her short temper flared, and she lashed out with another kick.
"You shut your mouth! If you say one more word, believe it or not, I’ll open that door and tell the person outside that you’re Ji Number Six!"
Ji Youlin was speechless. Is this really my own mother? I must have been found on the street, right?
Huo Xing’Er cast a sympathetic glance at Ji Youlin. "Number Six, you should really learn a thing or two from Number Seven! Just keep quiet. Maybe then you can make a fortune discreetly!"
