The Hunter's Lucky Little Lady Chapter 50

Chapter 50

50 Lucky Star

“Father, have you forgotten? Every year at the temple fair, Father and Mother would ask us to go to the temple to pray for their safety and let us kneel in the main hall of the temple and chant the scriptures. Last year, I went with Sister, but I fell asleep after listening for a while. Sister was afraid that I would freeze, so she hugged me in her arms,” Li Xiaoqing said as she recalled.

“When I was half asleep, I heard a monk’s voice. He said that Sister chanted very devoutly and asked her to draw a lot. Sister drew a lot and handed it to the monk. After the monk read the lot, he said that Sister had a calamity this year and after it, she would be a lucky star. She would be a blessing to her family and even more so to her husband!”

“Father, think about it. Sister hit her head previously and almost lost her life. Although she found a doctor to treat her, Sister woke up unexpectedly. I think that was her calamity. Later on, Sister was able to wake up, so she must have survived the calamity and became a lucky star! Doesn’t everything that happened after that prove this?”

“Sister was forced to get married and brought our family out of misery. Now, we’re living a comfortable life and making a lot of money from setting up the stall. All of this matches what the monk said!” Li Xiaoqing said confidently.

Li Xiaoran watched as her sister found the perfect excuse for her.

A lucky star?

Oh my G.o.d!

Her sister was such a braggart!

Why didn’t she see that she had the ability to bless others?

When Luo Cheng heard Li Xiaoqing’s words, he suddenly remembered the day he picked up Li Xiaoran’s family.

At that time, he even made up an excuse that he had a box of gold and silver treasures because of Li Xiaoran.

Now that he heard what Li Xiaoqing said, this box of treasures was really brought to him by Li Xiaoran.

Noticing Luo Cheng’s expression of deep agreement, Li Xiaoran was overcome with embarra.s.sment.

Oh no, oh no!

Previously, Luo Cheng had said that he had found gold and silver on the first day she came to the Luo family. Now that he heard this, wouldn’t he be convinced that she was a lucky star?

How could she explain how she could convince her family and Luo Cheng that she was just an ordinary farm girl?

“I see. I was wondering why my daughter suddenly knew how to make knife-cut noodles! So there was a reason! It must be because my daughter survived the calamity and was rewarded by the heavens!” Li Shun said in realization.

What?

Li Xiaoran looked at her father in complete disbelief.

So they had their suspicions all along?

They just never said it out loud!

Great, now she didn’t have to make any excuses later. Her old man had them ready!

“Actually, it’s not difficult to prove this!” Luo Cheng said.

Li Xiaoran immediately looked at Luo Cheng. For some reason, she felt very panicked.

“Didn’t Li Yan say that Father-in-law will find the reis.h.i.+ mushroom? Why don’t I bring Father-in-law up the mountain this afternoon! Then, I’ll bring Father-in-law and Xiaoran up the mountain tomorrow. If Father-in-law finds the reis.h.i.+ mushroom when Xiaoran is around, won’t it prove something?” Luo Cheng suggested.

Not expecting him to come up with such a bad idea, Li Xiaoran glared at Luo Cheng.

The reis.h.i.+ mushroom wasn’t like anything else! It was as rare as ginseng! Where could she find a the reis.h.i.+ mushroom for them?

At this moment, Li Xiaoran looked calm on the surface, but she was panicking inside.

Help! Why did they have to depict her as a lucky star!

She didn’t! She couldn’t! She wasn’t!

Unexpectedly, Li Shun, Zhao Xiu, and Li Xiaoqing nodded.

Li Xiaoqing thought for a moment and said, “I don’t think there’s a need to wait until tomorrow! After dinner, Brother-in-law and Father will go out for two hours. Then, after two hours, Brother-in-law will come back to pick up Sister and go for another two hours. It can be resolved in an afternoon!”

Was this a matter of a few hours?

Was this something they could just wander around and find?

Where on earth did her family and sister get the courage to think she would be so lucky?

Who did they think she was?

However, the family ignored her opinion and decided on it in the end.

For lunch, Zhao Xiu quickly finished cooking.

After the family finished eating, Luo Cheng and Li Shun went out in high spirits.

On the other side, Li Xiaoqing pulled Li Xiaoran and reminded her to rest well! She would wake her up in two hours.

“Sister, you must rest well and try to acc.u.mulate enough luck to find the reis.h.i.+ mushroom immediately! Sister, you can do it. I think highly of you!”

Li Xiaoran really wanted to cry!

Was this kind of thing something she could do just by resting?

Was this kind of thing something she could do with just a little encouragement?

Did her sister have some sort of misunderstanding?

However, Li Xiaoran couldn’t defend herself now. Seeing that her sister had already turned into her fan, she could only sigh and go to bed for an afternoon nap!

Forget it, forget it. Perhaps she could get a moment of peace by dreaming!

Two hours later, Luo Cheng and Li Shun returned!

The two men returned empty-handed.

The two of them, who had already walked until their mouths were dry, returned and drank a large bowl of water. After that, the two of them found water bags to carry some water with them. They would drink it after going up the mountain.

Li Xiaoran was also called up by Li Xiaoqing. At this moment, she resigned herself to fate and followed Luo Cheng and Li Shun out.

However, just as they left the forest, Luo Cheng and Li Shun stopped.

“My daughter, where do you think we should go?”

Li Xiaoran looked around casually, and pointed in a direction.

So the three of them headed in that direction.

Li Xiaoran and Li Shun both carried baskets, and Luo Cheng carried the rope.

The three of them kept wandering around the mountain. More than half an hour had pa.s.sed, but they didn’t find anything.

“Father, Luo Cheng, why did you believe Xiao Qing’s words? I think that the monk might have said those words to make me happy, but you believed him!” Li Xiaoran’s feet were sore from walking. She couldn’t help but sit on a rock and pant.

“It’s fine. If we can’t find it, we can cut some firewood!” Li Shun was very open-minded and didn’t feel dejected about not finding the reis.h.i.+ mushroom.

“That’s right! Dad, you’re right!” Li Xiaoran immediately heaved a sigh of relief when she heard this.

It was too tiring to live with the high expectations of others!

“Wait! Look, there seems to be something behind the stone that Xiaoran is sitting on!” Luo Cheng said.
