My Princess Holds Superpowers

Chapter 12: 12 grams sold out



Because Erya had hit Ye Jiu's head, she had already anticipated that Mrs. He would definitely not let her and her mother off the hook during this time!

However, not only did she need to boil water, but she also had to cook. With a large family depending on Mrs. Li alone, it was not easy to serve them all.

Erya had been beaten so severely that she had passed out in the middle of the night yesterday. It was only then that Old Man Ye decided to let Mrs. Li bring her back. At this moment, Ye Erya was still lying on the wooden bed; all the household chores had accumulated on her alone. Moreover, wearing thin clothes and the cold wind blowing on her body made it almost unbearable for Mrs. Li.

Inside the house, Ye Jiu listened to Mrs. He's scolding and sighed helplessly. She didn't really sympathize with Mrs. Li; when her own hands and feet were not nimble, Mrs. Li and her daughter had not spared her their cruelty.

It was only later that Mrs. He watched Ye Jiu very closely, which prevented Mrs. Li and her daughter from getting a chance to lay hands on her.

However, there were other families living near the Ye family, and Mrs. He's daily fault-finding had already become a public spectacle. Ye Jiu still did not want others to make fun of her family.

So, Ye Jiu called out, "Mother, come in and help me find some clothes."

Ye Jiu, who was ten years old this year, had always been dressed by Mrs. He. As Mrs. He was getting older and sometimes lacked the strength, she had no choice but to let her eldest daughter-in-law, Mrs. Zhang, take care of Ye Jiu.

Thus, hearing Ye Jiu calling her, Mrs. He hurriedly ran into the house, "Coming, coming, Mother is coming to find clothes for my darling."

Just as Ye Jiu had put on her clothes and stepped down from the kang, Old Man Ye returned from a walk outside and was stunned to see Ye Jiu walking and jumping around in the room. "Xiaojiu, you...you are...?"

Mrs. He, rarely in a good mood, pulled Old Man Ye and dusted off his clothes, "Our Xiaojiu is better now. I've always said that my daughter is blessed. Perhaps her previous unintelligence was due to someone jinxing her!"

Mrs. He glanced at Erya's sleeping sheds while saying this.

Originally, she had mentioned it casually, but after thinking it over, she felt there was some truth to her words.

Erya, that cursed girl, had always been as robust as a bull ever since she was little. Even if her food and clothes were poor, it didn't affect her health at all.

In contrast, her own daughter—despite getting all the best things at home—didn't show any improvement in health.

But this time, just as Erya had been beaten down by her, her own Xiaojiu had recovered. Could it really be that this cursed girl had been jinxing her daughter?

The more Mrs. He thought about it, the more she was convinced that it must be so. That cursed girl must have stolen her daughter's health; otherwise, it was all too coincidental.

Otherwise, why would her daughter get better exactly when she fell ill?

Old Man Ye was initially very excited, but he felt awkward after hearing what Mrs. He said.

Erya was also his daughter. Although she was not very likable and they lived under the same roof, it was impossible not to have any affection for her.

But he knew Mrs. He's temper, so he generally did not want to provoke her, and thus, Old Man Ye did not respond, and Mrs. He quieted down.

However, this atmosphere did not last long. Soon, Mrs. He went energetically to the kitchen to order Mrs. Li around.

Hearing Mrs. He's vigorous voice outside, Old Man Ye sighed helplessly and simply took his old smoking pipe to sit at the doorway, puffing smoke rings.

Outside the door, Mrs. Zhang saw that her mother-in-law was busy bossing Mrs. Li around and not paying attention to this side, so she secretly came in. Seeing Ye Jiu standing on the ground, she joyfully said, "Her...her little aunt, are you really better?"
