My Princess Holds Superpowers

By the time He Shi came back, Ye Jiu was whining to her, "Mom, can you boil another egg for me?"

"You little rascal, you refused to eat it yesterday when I gave you one, so why do you want to eat it today?" He Shi said, annoyed.

Thinking about the one and a half eggs she and the old man had eaten yesterday, she felt a pang of distress; those could have fetched a good two or three coins at the market.

"Hehe..." Ye Jiu laughed sheepishly.

Yesterday, she had reluctantly tried to let He Shi and Ye Lao Han have something good out of concern for them.

But the egg she had given to La Sike yesterday, originally as interest for repaying her debt of gratitude for the antidote, turned out to be incredibly valuable in the Star Plane, even earning her several bottles of repair liquid from La Sike.

Nonetheless, Ye Jiu was a person of integrity. Although trading the egg for an antidote and repair liquid was more than a fair exchange, she could not forget the debt of gratitude for La Sike's antidote.

So, Ye Jiu felt that she should at least give La Sike another egg.

Of course, with her current means, except for eggs, there wasn't much else she could offer.

Even getting that one egg had required her to coax He Shi.

Ye Jiu was He Shi's precious treasure, and that was no understatement; there might be many things He Shi couldn't afford, but she was quite willing to satisfy Ye Jiu's wish for another egg.

Ye Jiu secretly stored the egg He Shi gave her into Planar Space, and only after sending it to La Sike did she breathe a sigh of relief.

The debt of gratitude was paid off, and from now on, their relationship would just involve normal trading.

However, she would still remember La Sike's kindness, and if there ever came a day when he needed help and she was capable, she would certainly do her utmost.

Suddenly, Ye Jiu found her thoughts rather amusing.

La Sike's plane was much more advanced than her ancient plane; probably, other than providing him with some food, she couldn't be of much help in other areas.

Half a month later, the wound on Ye Jiu's forehead had completely healed.

He Shi stared at Ye Jiu's forehead for a long time before saying contentedly, "I'm glad my dear child's forehead doesn't have a scar, otherwise even if Ye Erya paid with her life, it wouldn't match a single hair on my Jiujiu's head!"

Ye Jiu just smiled and did not respond.

Ye Lao Han also felt awkward beside them but didn't dare to contradict He Shi.

Two days later, Ye Jiu was worrying over the several glass bottles in her hands.

After experimenting several times with the repair liquid, she finally adjusted it to a quantity she felt was adequate; it would definitely perform better than common healing ointments and yet not attract too much attention.

However, she had managed to prepare the liquid, deciding how to sell it was really a problem!

And let's not even talk about strangers; even her own family members might not believe she possessed such a substance.

As Ye Jiu sat reflecting at the doorway, she suddenly felt the sunlight in front of her blocked.

Looking up, Ye Jiu saw Ye Erya standing before her, with a large half-bucket of well-cooked pig feed next to her.

It was this person who, for a piece of Opium Cake, had hit her with a stone. Ye Jiu was certain that if it weren't for the Planar Space, her situation would have been fraught with more peril than fortune.

Enemies on sight, eyes blazing with resentment.

Ye Jiu stood up from the ground, and before she could speak, she saw He Shi coming over in a small run.

"You wretched girl, didn't you learn your lesson last time, did you? I warn you, if you dare to hurt my Jiujiu again, I will sell you to a brothel to be a lowly whore for the rest of your life..." He Shi yanked Ye Erya away and then shielded Ye Jiu in her arms.
