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

Zhang Sandong slammed the enamel mug down, his smile growing even colder. "Fine! You barely pass today. We'll continue tomorrow."

"If you don't finish the task tomorrow, you're fired too."

Thinking of how exhausted his younger brother was, Da'an felt bad and bent down to squat down.

"No need, brother, I still have energy."

Xiao An forced a smile, while Da An turned his head and stared intently at his younger brother, neither getting up nor speaking.

Nuannuan ran over with her short legs, patted Da'an on the back with her chubby little hands, and said, "Second brother, Nuannuan is so tired. Let's go home quickly."

Xiao An then climbed onto his older brother's back. Once he rested, he immediately felt tired and his body ached again.

I was in a daze, and when I woke up again, I was already inside the house.

He was lying face down on the kang (a heated brick bed), his clothes had already been taken off, and Su Xiulan was wiping his back while shedding tears.

It took her a lot of effort to take off the blood-stained cotton-padded jacket, and Su Xiulan could no longer hold back her tears.

My shoulder was badly injured; the flesh was torn open.

"Mom, why are you crying? It doesn't hurt at all." Xiao An's face was twitching from the pain, but he still grinned foolishly, pulling out a few crumpled bills from his pocket. "Look, today's wages, one yuan and fifty cents! Cash on delivery! Enough to buy meat for Nuannuan, and enough to get medicine for Dad!"

He was finally able to earn money and contribute to his family.

Gu Jianguo sat on the edge of the kang (a heated brick bed), angrily pounding his useless leg, his eyes red-rimmed: "It's all because your father is incompetent that you have to suffer like this!"

"Second brother, drink some water, it will make you feel better." Nuannuan ran over, holding a bowl of warm water in her hands.

While Su Xiulan turned around to look for scissors, Nuannuan turned her back, gently touched the bowl with her fingertip, and a drop of spiritual spring water dissolved into it.

"Okay, brother, drink up." Xiao An picked up the bowl and drank it all in one gulp.

As soon as he drank the water, a warm current rushed through his entire body, making him feel so comfortable that he almost cried out.

While Su Xiulan applied the medicine, Nuannuan stretched out her chubby little hand, pretending to comfort her brother, but her fingertips emitted a wisp of magic as she gently stroked the frightening wound. "Whew, it won't hurt anymore, Nuannuan will do some magic for brother~"

Su Xiulan was about to shout "Don't touch it!" but the next second her eyes widened.

The wound, which was still bleeding, stopped bleeding at a speed visible to the naked eye. It was as if an invisible hand had smoothed the wound, and a thin scab quickly formed.

"This...this is a miracle from heaven?"

Su Xiulan rubbed her eyes hard, wondering if she had cried herself silly.

Xiao An was even more shocked. The excruciating pain was gone, replaced by an inexhaustible burst of energy. He felt like he could kill a bull with a single punch!

"Mom! I think I can carry sixty of them tomorrow! I'm going to smash that Zhang Sandong's head in!" Xiao An excitedly waved his arm.

"You silly child, what nonsense are you spouting? Lie down for a bit, I'll call you when dinner's ready!"

Xiao An chuckled, "Mom, I feel really energetic now. My sister must have given me something good to drink."

Could it be ginseng water?

Xiao An looked at Nuan Nuan with bright eyes. Su Xiulan shook her head helplessly. This child's personality was becoming more and more unruly.

But this is good. My younger son used to be a bit timid and wouldn't dare to come home if he was bullied. Now he's starting to act like a big brother.

Seeing her mother leave, Xiao An waved to Nuan Nuan.

With tears welling in her eyes, Nuannuan asked with concern, "Second brother, does it still hurt? Should I warm it up for you again?"

The little girl pouted as she spoke, but Xiao An quickly stopped her, "It doesn't hurt anymore, little sister. What did you give me to drink just now?"

Nuannuan tilted her head and thought for a moment, "It's a very sweet liquid that makes you feel very comfortable after drinking it."

"Second brother, would you like some more?"

A sharp noise interrupted the brother and sister's conversation.

The two looked up and realized that, at some point, their older brother had gone to tinker with his old radio again.

"Big brother?"

The little girl didn't care about her second brother anymore. She skillfully slid off the bed, ran to Da'an in a few steps, her eyes shining, "Big brother, is this one ready soon?"

Da'an didn't look up; his slender fingers moved quickly to adjust the settings, and soon a clear sound could be heard.

"Big brother, you're so amazing..."

Nuannuan looked at Da'an with admiration. Da'an shoved the radio into Nuannuan's hands, saying, "Little sister, this is for you!"

Nuannuan pointed to her little nose in shock, "You gave it to me too?"

"Um……"

It was the children's channel again, and familiar nursery rhymes were playing.

"Little Erlang, carrying his schoolbag, goes to school..."

Nuannuan was overjoyed and couldn't help but hug Da'an's face and kiss him. "Big brother, you're so good."

Gu Jianguo...

I was even more shocked. My son had already fixed one yesterday, and I never expected him to fix another one!

"Nuan Nuan, where's the one your older brother gave you yesterday?"

Nuannuan slapped her forehead, "Dad, I forgot."

She threw it into the space.

[Little Green, hurry and help me find it!]

Xiao Lü was still confused. How could someone fix something so broken? What kind of genius is the eldest son of the Gu family?

Such a genius was always called a fool by the villagers...

He didn't even know how to complain. If this is also an idiot, then are there any geniuses left in this world?

[They're all safely stored away!]

With a wave of her little hand, Nuannuan found another radio on the kang (a heated brick bed).

However, it's completely different from the radio I saw yesterday; this is actually brand new.

The paint is now glossy, and the metal knobs are sparkling clean, without a trace of rust.

The original broken radio body, haphazardly tied together by Da'an, now showed no signs of damage. If Gu Jianguo hadn't personally witnessed his eldest son piecing together a pile of scrap metal yesterday, and seen the radio itself, dilapidated yet capable of producing sound, he would have suspected it was a brand new product just bought from the supply and marketing cooperative.

"Whose junk is this?"

Gu Jianguo's voice trembled. He swallowed hard, reached out to touch it, but was afraid of making a mark, so he rubbed his hand hard on the quilt.

A new one of these costs a little over 100 yuan at the supply and marketing cooperative, and you need industrial coupons for it; most people wouldn't be willing to buy it.

But now, they actually have two.

Although the one Da'an just made is still the old one, if Nuan Nuan can turn into a new one, the other one should be fine too, right?

With a clatter, the bowl in Su Xiulan's hand hit the door frame and almost fell to the ground.

She was cooking in the outer room when she heard a noise. Thinking something had happened, she grabbed her bowl and ran inside, only to find...

"Honey, where did this new radio come from?"

Su Xiulan still couldn't believe it. "You must have borrowed it from someone, right?"

Looking at his wife's expectant eyes, Gu Jianguo shook his head.

"Did our daughter do this?"

Su Xiulan was at a loss for words. She had only meant well, but now…

Her daughter's abilities made her very nervous.

She quickly turned around and closed the doors and windows, her eyes fixed intently on the children. "Remember this today..."

"Keep it to yourself, don't tell anyone. Mom, you've said that so many times, I'm sick of hearing it."

Xiao An sighed, leaned over the edge of the kang (a heated brick bed), and stared intently at the brand-new radio, his eyes gleaming.

Like a vicious wolf... seeing a big, fat piece of meat!

"I'm just excited..."

Su Xiulan didn't know how to describe her feelings, seeing that the three children had ultimately fallen on her eldest son.

He was the calmest one at that moment, still looking down and fiddling with the parts.

Two have already been repaired, and there aren't many parts left, but my son seems to be immersed in his own world, oblivious to everything around him.

"Our Da'an... he's really something. I knew he wasn't stupid!"

Su Xiulan's nose tingled and her eyes welled up with tears. She longed to take her son out, grab a megaphone, and walk around the village to tell them how amazing her son was.

However, the youngest daughter is even more formidable.

Nuannuan looked at this and that, and finally settled on her older brother.

In such a lively and exciting time, how can the older brother be so quiet? Nuannuan pouted, unhappy.

I wish my older brother was as lively as my second brother.
