Chapter 325

Hearing Lin Zaozao's gloomy voice, the two little wolf cubs hurriedly nodded in agreement.

"Since you two have agreed, then I'll give you both names now...

Ahem ahem..."

Lin Zaozao cleared her throat and said solemnly to the two trembling little wolf cubs.

"You two are fierce wolf cubs, so your names must be fierce as well, only then can they match your fierce identities.

Let's do this, from now on, the black wolf cub will be called Qian Duoduo, and the white one will be called Mi Duoduo.

With money and rice, I will never fear hunger again. How's that? Don't the names big sister gave you sound nice?"

"Nice!"

"Nice!"

"Since they're nice, then I'll call your names. You must answer, remember!

Qian Duoduo! Mi Duoduo! Line up and report."

"Master!"

"Master!"

"Aiya! My two good boys! Your old mother loves you both! Now that your old mother has money and rice, I'll never go hungry again.

Remember, you two must wish me great fortune, great wealth, and an abundant harvest!"T/his chapter is updated by nov(ê(l)biin.co/m

Watching the two little wolf cubs crouching in front of her and wagging their tails, Lin Zaozao immediately became delighted.

Hahaha...

Before she was transported to this world, her ill-fated younger brother Lin Luoluo wouldn't even let her keep a small dog, saying they lacked dignity and weren't worthy of being kept by her.

But now, she could keep two little wolf cubs at once. Now, that guy Lin Luoluo couldn't control her anymore!

As Lin Zaozao hugged Qian Duoduo and Mi Duoduo and laughed, tears uncontrollably streamed down her face.

She missed home!

Lin Luoluo, she's hugging two little wolf cubs now! Why don't you come and control me?

"Master, why are you crying?"

"Qian Duoduo, Mi Duoduo, I'm hungry. Young Master Ruo Qiu must have sent delicious food into the palace, let's have Uncle Zhang make us something good to eat."

"Yes, we want to eat meat!"

"There's no meat, but all the bones are yours."

Lin Zaozao put the two little wolf cubs down and walked towards the dining area. As Lin Zaozao approached the dining hall where Uncle Zhang was, she smelled the aroma of braised meat.

Just smelling that scent made Lin Zaozao feel so hungry!

"Qian Duoduo, Mi Duoduo, let's go gnaw on some bones."

With her short little legs, Lin Zaozao walked into the dining hall. As soon as she entered, Lin Zaozao discovered that the usually almost empty dining hall was now crowded with many people.

Everyone formed a circle, staring eagerly at the open space in the center.

"Uncle, is it ready yet?"

Dashan's kind voice came from the crowd.

"Don't rush, let it braise a bit longer."

"Uncle Zhang, can I have a taste to see if it's done?"

"Young Master Han Xibei, wait a bit more, it'll be done soon."

Then the sound of a ladle stirring meat in a pot could be heard. Along with Uncle Zhang's stirring, Lin Zaozao, standing behind the crowd, clearly heard the sound of people swallowing saliva.

Han Ye took the bowl from Lin Zaozao and was about to put it in the kitchen cabinet reserved for her.

"Brother Han Ye, Young Master Ruo Qiu will send more food tomorrow.

You should give the leftovers to Qian Duoduo and Mi Duoduo!

If it goes bad, that would be a waste."

"Zhuzhu, if you can't eat it, then feed it to your two wolf cubs. It's yours, so even if you don't want to eat it, don't just give it to us for free.

Zhuzhu, people are selfish by nature. We may be grateful for your gift once. But if you keep giving, over time we'll come to see your gifts as something we're entitled to.

So Zhuzhu, when you want to help others, you must protect yourself first, understand?"

Looking into Han Ye's sincere eyes, Lin Zaozao nodded after a while and said softly:

"But Brother Han Ye, I heard that I'm the future Grand Priest of Han Country. Isn't my duty to make sacrifices for Han Country?"

"No, absolutely not!"

Han Ye raised his voice abruptly, causing those eating in the courtyard to suddenly stop.

Ignoring their strange looks, Han Ye grabbed Lin Zaozao's arm firmly and said seriously:

"Zhuzhu, Han Country needs a qualified and intelligent ruler, not a newborn baby to be turned into a sacrifice for the mighty Han Country.

I'm still young with limited ability, but I will keep working hard. Zhuzhu, as long as I can govern Han Country well, I will never need you to make any sacrifices for Han Country.

Zhuzhu, only an incompetent ruler would place all their hope on a young and innocent child.

So Zhuzhu, just keep the title of Han Country's Grand Priest, grow up happily and be a joyful little girl.

I don't believe that with my abilities, I can't make Han Country the greatest of the three countries again."

Han Ye's words shocked Lin Zaozao, and she couldn't help but choke up. Since ancient times, whenever a country faced disaster or war, those in power would instinctively blame innocent women.

For the sake of peace, the ones who ended up sacrificed were always innocent women.

And this boy who had not yet grown up was using the most direct way to protect her.

"Zhuzhu, tell me, have you had enough to eat?"

"I've had enough," Lin Zaozao replied with a pouting mouth.

"What about your two wolf cubs? Have they had enough?"

"I gave them each a piece, but I didn't ask if they were full."

"Then ask them now."

Listening to Han Ye, Lin Zaozao turned to look at the two wolf cubs lying at her feet and asked in a muffled voice:

"Qian Duoduo, Mi Duoduo, have you two had enough to eat?"

"No!"

"No!"

The two wolf cubs answered Lin Zaozao with a whimper.

"Brother Han Ye, they said they haven't."

"Zhuzhu, you can understand what they're saying?"

"Yes!"

"Then do you feel unwell anywhere?"

Han Ye asked anxiously as he held her hand.

"No, I'm fine."

Lin Zaozao stretched out both hands, allowing Han Ye to examine them.
