A jinx, me? But I bring good fortune to my whole family!

Nuannuan was awakened by a familiar scent.

It smelled of a mixture of dirt and mold.

Before she even opened her eyes, her nose wrinkled up.

The smell was very similar to the smell she remembered from when her parents left and she was forced to live in the woodshed.

She slowly opened her heavy eyelids, squinting uncomfortably in the light.

Once she could see everything clearly, her little mouth opened slightly.

This is a small mud-brick house with very little thatch on the roof. Light leaks through the cracks, and a lot of dust floats in the air.

An old face, covered in wrinkles, was right in front of her.

"Oh my, my dear granddaughter, you're finally awake."

Grandma Lin smiled, but the smile didn't reach her eyes at all.

Beside her was another woman, her eyes darting away, avoiding Nuannuan's gaze.

It's Wang Guixiang.

That old woman is her own grandmother, Old Lady Lin.

"Holy crap! Human cub! You've been kidnapped! That old woman's smile is awful, she's clearly up to no good!" In his mind, even Little Green's ginseng whiskers started moving.

Nuannuan didn't move or speak; she simply watched them quietly with her big, dark eyes.

When Grandma Lin saw that she didn't speak, the smile on her face froze for a moment, and then she brought over a bowl of water from the table next to her.

There were several chips on the rim of the bowl, and the water inside was reddish-brown.

"My dear grandson, come here, have a bowl of brown sugar water to calm your nerves." Old Mrs. Lin's voice was very sweet.

She held the bowl to Nuannuan's lips, her face beaming with joy: "I'm your grandma! Your parents are gone, but from now on, Grandma will love you and take care of you."

Nuannuan tilted her head, just in time to avoid the bowl of water.

Nuannuan didn't like the smell, and she disliked Old Lady Lin even more.

Wang Guixiang watched anxiously from the side, wringing her hands in frustration.

Unable to contain herself any longer, she leaned closer to Old Lady Lin and whispered, "Mother, why isn't she drinking? Can that little brat Nuannuan really summon wild boars? Should we ask her?"

"I knew this guy was an ungrateful brat. When he was with us, he had this ability, so why didn't we ever say anything?"

Although the sound was soft, the room was so small that even a deaf person could hear it clearly.

Old Mrs. Lin's face instantly darkened. She glared fiercely at her brainless eldest daughter-in-law, and no one would assume she was mute if she didn't speak.

We finally managed to bring that brat over here, wasn't it because we know how powerful Nuannuan is?

The ability to command animals to rescue people from deep wells is practically a godsend.

Now, all three of Grandma Lin's sons are crippled, especially the eldest and second eldest. One broke his leg while stealing wood, and the other injured his back. They are both bedridden and unable to get up.

The family spent all their money on medical treatment for these two troublesome children, and the family was brought to ruin.

Grandma Lin brought Nuannuan back this time because she wanted her to cure her two sons.

Then, just push her out and say that there's a powerful person here who has shown his abilities. There will definitely be many people seeking medical treatment and medicine, and we can make a lot of money.

But now, Wang Guixiang has revealed it all in one sentence.

Old Mrs. Lin was very angry, but she still had to force a smile on her face.

"Gui Xiang, what nonsense are you talking about! What wild boar! This is my own granddaughter, I'm taking her home to live with me!"

She turned back and continued to smile at Nuannuan, but the smile looked forced no matter how you looked at it.

Nuannuan finally made a move.

She didn't look at the two scheming women, but climbed off the dilapidated wooden bed and stepped barefoot onto the cold mud.

Her small figure moved slowly through the room, her little hands touching the walls, then looking up at the light-filled roof.

Everything here overlapped with the vague home deep in her memory.

This is the house that her biological parents left her.

She turned around, tilted her small face up, and looked at Old Lady Lin, whose smile was almost fading.

She didn't cry, didn't make a scene, and didn't even mention what Wang Guixiang had just said.

She simply blinked her big eyes and asked slowly in an innocent, childlike voice:

"Grandma, is this house mine?"

She pointed her little finger to the ground beneath her feet, then to the roof above her head.

"My dad said he saved up money to build this house, and it was left for me."

One sentence brought the atmosphere in the room to a standstill.

The smile on Old Lady Lin's face froze completely.

Wang Guixiang was so frightened that she took a step back and stared at the child.

Is this something a three-year-old child could say?

Without crying or making a fuss, without looking for her parents, the first thing she did upon waking up was to ask about the house.

Old Mrs. Lin gritted her teeth, feeling very uncomfortable.

She had schemed her whole life, but she had never suffered such a great loss from a young girl.

She took a deep breath, suppressed her anger, and squeezed out a sentence through gritted teeth: "It's...it's yours."

She couldn't deny it; the house was indeed built by her youngest son, and his name was on the deed and land certificate.

"Although it's yours, you're too young. Grandma will take care of it for you for now." Grandma Lin clenched her fingers tightly. She decided to stop beating around the bush with this child and had to use a firm approach.

This set is completely useless against Nikki.

Nuannuan looked at her, pouted, and slowly said, "Oh, so you're in charge. Then, if I stay in your room, do I have to pay Nuannuan?"

"Wow! Human cub, well done! You can't be polite with these guys!" Little Green shouted in his mind.

"You!" Old Mrs. Lin couldn't catch her breath.

Give her money? She didn't want to give her a single penny; she was actually trying to get money out of this little girl.

Looking at her mother-in-law's ugly face, Wang Guixiang was so frightened that she dared not breathe loudly.

This little girl, her words are so hurtful.

Grandma Lin finally couldn't keep up the act anymore.

She slammed the bowl of brown sugar water down on the table with a loud bang.

The fake smile on his face disappeared, replaced by impatience and a cold expression.

She grabbed Nuannuan's arm with great force.

"Stop talking nonsense!"

She pointed to a curtained inner room that emitted a foul and medicinal odor, and coldly commanded:

"Nuan Nuan, aren't you so capable?"

"Go inside and examine your two dying uncles!"
