After Descending the Mountain, Seven Big Brothers Spoil Me-Chapter 1064: The Vegetables Are Gone

As soon as the words left his mouth, Zhouzhou immediately dropped her hands.

Ancestral Master was momentarily stunned.

Then, Zhouzhou sighed and said, "I’m a total daddy’s girl, so whatever my dad says goes."

Ancestral Master: "..."

The one thing he hated most in this life was "daddy’s girls"!

Such a waste of time!

He glanced at Zhouzhou and said, "Fine, whatever. At least you’re not struggling for food. If you’re short of money, then bear with it."

With that, he yawned and began shooing her away. "Go on, I need my rest."

Zhouzhou rolled her eyes. She didn’t believe for a second that Ancestral Master didn’t understand what she meant. He was just doing it on purpose!

But, as she had expected, her dad wouldn’t easily agree to her plan. She’d have to work on it slowly.

With that thought, Zhouzhou climbed off the cushion and waved goodbye to Ancestral Master before leaving.

Ancestral Master watched her retreating figure with a snort. "Still pretending in front of me. I’m not like Li Yuanming, that idiot. I’m not falling for her tricks."

He refused to believe that she didn’t care, that she wasn’t secretly itching to make money. She was just messing with him on purpose.

Little rascal, hmph.

But then, he had to admit, this matter couldn’t be rushed. He’d wait and see how things turned out.

That night, Zhouzhou had another dream. In this one, all of Ancestral Master’s golden light was restored. With a mere wave of his hand, he erased her financial troubles.

From then on, her wealth grew endlessly, and gold coins were everywhere she looked.

Zhouzhou couldn’t help but grin in her sleep.

When Ye Lingfeng entered the room, that was the scene he walked into. He looked at his daughter, grinning like an idiot while lying in bed, and raised an eyebrow.

He walked up to her, pinched her chubby little face, and called out, "Zhouzhou? Wake up."

Zhouzhou didn’t want to wake up.

She turned over, hugging her imaginary mountain of gold, drooling in her sleep.

What kind of dream was she having this time?

Ye Lingfeng, feeling helpless, called again, this time louder, "Time for dinner."

The louder sound immediately woke Zhouzhou up.

She blinked, looking around the room before her face fell in disappointment. "Dad, you need to pay for my gold mountain!"

All that gold, just gone!

Ye Lingfeng stared at her in silence. "Do you need me to pay for it? You dreamt about it last night, didn’t you? You can just dream up as much gold as you want."

Every night, it was either a gold mountain or a chicken leg. When would she have some ambition?

Zhouzhou shot him a resentful look.

So what if it was just a dream? She couldn’t earn it in real life, so was she not allowed to dream about it and enjoy a little happiness?

Seeing her pout, Ye Lingfeng stared at her for a few seconds, then said, "Alright, you’re supposed to be having fun on the mountain, right? You’re not even playing properly. There are people waiting for you outside."

"Who?" Zhouzhou asked, curious.

"I don’t know them. Some monks from next door."

At that moment, Zhouzhou immediately knew.

"It must be Senior Brother Jingkong! He came to play with me!"

With that thought, Zhouzhou jumped off the bed and dashed outside without even bothering to comb her hair, her hair flying wildly, looking like a little madwoman.

Ye Lingfeng shook his head helplessly, watching her go.

Then he remembered something: Senior Brother Jingkong was the one who had given her the copper alms bowl, right?

That bowl was probably a way to ensure she had enough to eat, a thoughtful gesture. He had always treated her well and had clearly thought ahead for her.

"Senior Brother Jingkong!" Zhouzhou rushed outside like a gust of wind and immediately saw the monks standing outside. Her face lit up as she grinned and leaped into his arms.

Jingkong, now 18, had grown into a tall, fair young man with an air of calmness about him. Despite his scholarly demeanor, he had practiced martial arts for years, and his stance was firm and grounded. He easily caught Zhouzhou, ruffling her hair, his face full of joy.

"Zhouzhou!" he called out, equally happy to see her.

The two hadn’t seen each other for a while, and Zhouzhou happily snuggled her head into his neck, her little legs kicking with excitement.

In the entire temple, she and Jingkong were the closest.

Even after she came to the Taoist temple, Jingkong would often send her large vegetarian buns. Zhouzhou liked him the most.

Jingkong also enjoyed spending time with her. When she had been sent away, he had cried for days. If not for his reverence for the Buddha, he would have secretly snuck to the Taoist temple to bring her back.

Seeing her now filled him with even more joy.

"Come on, I made some vegetarian buns. I’ll take you to eat them."

"Okay!" Zhouzhou eagerly nodded.

Jingkong didn’t put her down, carrying her to the adjacent building.

As they left, Li Yuanming’s head peeked out from the room. He sneered, knowing Zhouzhou couldn’t bear to leave that side!

Playing both sides, this Chubby Girl!

Just as he was thinking this, Ancestral Master floated over, his mood much lighter. "It’s alright. She’s just visiting. She’ll come back soon enough."

As long as she’s ours, it’s fine.

But now, he had to focus on how to get Ye Lingfeng to let Zhouzhou go on those missions.

He calculated that if Zhouzhou completed those tasks, his golden light would be fully restored.

At first, he thought it would take a long time, but now that success seemed so near, he couldn’t wait any longer.

However, bringing up the matter with Ye Lingfeng was no easy task.

With a sigh, he muttered, "Daddy’s girls really ruin things!"

Meanwhile, Zhouzhou had no care for Ancestral Master’s thoughts. She was happily playing with Jingkong.

After chatting with the abbot for a while, she ate dinner at the temple and finally returned home.

Li Yuanming’s expression was one of deep, resentful longing.

She treated his place like a hotel! Well, if he was capable, he could live over there too!

But he didn’t dare say it out loud.

He knew she was just waiting for him to say something so she could win.

He wouldn’t let her have her way!

With that thought, he snorted heavily and went back to his room.

Still, he couldn’t help feeling a bit upset.

After all, it was Yiyun who had taken her in at the first place, and they were so close now. If Zhouzhou didn’t even go there to visit, it would truly feel cold-hearted.

The little brat may be troublesome, but she was still somewhat filial.

That’s why he was just grumbling, not really angry at her.

Yiyun also knew how to handle things. If Zhouzhou stayed too long, Yiyun would urge her to go back.

For the next few days, Zhouzhou spent her mornings at the Taoist temple, afternoons with the monks, and evenings back home to sleep, managing both places without issue.

Because she missed a few meals, Li Yuanming’s vegetables lasted a bit longer.

But with Ye Lingfeng around, within ten days, his vegetable garden was practically wiped out.

Li Yuanming stared at the few remaining vegetables in his garden and couldn’t help but twitch his mouth. This father-daughter pair really knew how to eat.

He sighed inwardly.

The vegetables were gone, and Zhouzhou’s time here was almost up.

Sure enough, that night, Ye Lingfeng brought up the matter.

Zhouzhou, who had been happily playing, immediately looked disappointed.

"Dad, can we stay a few more days?"

Ye Lingfeng glanced at his phone and said, "The hospital just called. Master and the others will be discharged tomorrow. Director Zhao will be coming too. Once we pick them up, we’ll head back."

Mentioning Qiu Guoliang made Zhouzhou remember what Ancestral Master had said the other day.

If she could really take on those tasks, she could become a little rich lady in no time!
