I rely on the system to support my eighteen brothers and sisters

"Qiao Linshu, there is a saying that goes, 'People's hearts are hidden in their stomachs.' You asked me to reveal my secret in front of so many people. If it gets out, do you know the consequences?"

Qiao Linshu looked at Qiao Linxi's serious face and said disapprovingly: "What consequences will there be? After others know about this, they will definitely worship you and treat you like a fairy."

"Can you guarantee that they won't spread this matter?" Qiao Linxi knew that it was a crime to possess a treasure. As for the gold and silver, she was planning to find a suitable opportunity to return them to Xiao Ji.

"I just don't think grandma would hurt us."

"What about Qiao Wan'er? Can you guarantee that she won't do anything naughty after seeing this?"

"There are some things I don't want to say, but I have to say them. If you are really the children of the Qiao family, and the old lady wants to take you back, will you follow her?"

"Sister, you...you mean you're not leaving?"

After coming back from the cliff, Qiao Linqin was not very close to Qiao Linxi, but when she heard Qiao Linxi's words, she vaguely understood what Qiao Linxi meant. Qiao Linxi might not go to the capital.

"I'm asking you what you think. Whether you go or not, I won't comment. You just need to think it over carefully. No matter which path you choose, you must stick to it."

Qiao Linqin frowned, looking at Qiao Wan'er who was pulling Old Lady Qiao and acting like a spoiled child in the temple. Obviously, she also realized that Qiao Wan'er was a troublemaker and spoke harshly. If they followed the old lady back, it would mean that they would have to live with Qiao Wan'er.

"That Qiao Wan'er is indeed unlikable." Qiao Linqin summed it up.

"But we are the grandchildren of the Qiao family. It's impossible for grandma not to value us, right?"

Qiao Linshu's words made Qiao Linxi laugh. She asked, "Let me ask you a question. If something happens to you, will your brother Lin Bao save you at all costs, or will old lady Qiao save you?"

"Of course it's Brother Lin Bao, we have such a good relationship." Qiao Linshu gave the answer without hesitation.

"You also know that you have a good relationship with Lin Bao, and he will stand on your side. Similarly, Qiao Wan'er has lived with Old Lady Qiao for more than ten years. If you have a conflict with her, do you think Old Lady Qiao will stand on your side?"

Qiao Linxi knew that she only needed to stop talking and let them think about the rest. She had supported these children to follow the old lady at first, but after Qiao Wan'er knew their identities, her heart became twisted.

She was worried that these children would not have a happy life in the large mansions in the capital.

Going to the capital city would only give them a prominent status, better food and better things. But these were gained at the cost of self-esteem. Qiao Linxi could guarantee that if these children went to the capital city, they would definitely be looked down upon. Even if they were children of the Qiao family.

"I don't believe it. Grandma loves us so much, she will definitely protect us."

Qiao Linshu's stubborn look made Qiao Linxi smile gently, "It's up to you, let's go and get to work."

Qiao Linxi walked to the guards and asked them to eat while she processed the wolf meat.

She and the system rented an extremely sharp dagger and began to cut the wolf meat into evenly sized pieces.

It had just rained heavily and there was water in the wells in the city, so Qiao Linxi assigned Qiao Linqin to take the meat to the well to wash it.

Old Mrs. Qiao looked at the four siblings, Qiao Linxi, who were muttering to each other for a long time, and then they went to mess with the meat, and her brows frowned again.

"Grandma, what are Qiao Linxi and the others whispering about behind your back? Are they saying bad things about us? And why is she cutting all that meat?"

Qiao Linxi never consulted with anyone before doing anything. Even Qiao Linqin and the others sometimes didn't know what Qiao Linxi was going to do, not to mention Old Lady Qiao.

"Sister, what are we going to do with all this meat? Are we going to take it away?"

Qiao Linqin knew that Qiao Linxi had something called Qiankun Ding, which was the wooden bracelet on her hand, and it was said that it could hold everything. Could it be that she wanted to take the meat away?

"Well, this weather is extreme and a little abnormal. Let's prepare some extra food just in case."

This day was indeed abnormal. After several years of dry weather, it had been raining heavily for such a long time. Who knows what will happen next.

"But the meat doesn't taste good." Qiao Linshu pouted and didn't do anything.

"It's better than eating steamed buns, so hurry up, I'm worried that people in the city will find out and come to rob you."

The well is a bit far from the City God Temple, so Qiao Linxi is responsible for cutting the meat, the two boys are responsible for carrying the meat, Qiao Linqin is responsible for washing, and Qiao Linhua is responsible for holding the bags and packing the meat pieces one by one.

"Well, Miss, do you want to take this meat away? Let me do it."

The guard who told Qiao Linxi that he would go to the teahouse to listen to a story felt a little sorry when he saw Qiao Linxi cutting meat. This woman was the real eldest daughter of the Qiao family. As the guards of the Qiao family, how could they just watch her do things without doing anything?

"Well, take it away. Didn't your eldest daughter say that this is a good thing? It would be a shame to throw it away."

Seeing one person moving, the other guards also started moving, and their speed became much faster. Qiao Linxi was responsible for sealing and packaging the meat.

There were more than a dozen wolves, and there was a lot of meat that could be taken away. Except for the wolf heads which were difficult to handle, the meat on their bodies and legs was taken off by the guards and moved to the well.

Looking at the black thing that Qiao Linxi held, as long as he put the transparent bag containing the meat underneath, when he took it out, the bag would stick tightly to the meat, and the meat would not fall out. The guards exclaimed that it was magical.

"What is this? It looks amazing."

Qiao Linxi did not hide it and explained: "This is called vacuum packaging. The things in it can be stored for a long time."

"It's really eye-opening to see such good things in the world." The guard sighed, "Most of the meat and vegetables we eat on weekdays go bad after three days. How long can this be kept?"

"This can be kept at room temperature for seven or eight days. If it is frozen, it can last longer."

Qiao Linxi didn't say that she could keep this thing for a few years. She felt that there was no need to say such things. And even if she did, the guards wouldn't believe it.

"Seven or eight days, that's that long? That's great."

The system told Qiao Linxi that the things in the Qiankun Ding were like the photos in a mobile phone. They would always look the same no matter how long they were there. The only difference was that the things in the photos could not be taken out of the mobile phone, but the things in the Qiankun Ding could be taken out.

To put it most bluntly, there is no time in the Qiankun Ding. No matter how long ago something was put in, it would remain at the time when it was first put in, and it would never change.

Old Madam Qiao looked at the guards busying around and was secretly shocked. How could Qiao Linxi be so good at winning people's hearts? It had only been a few days, and the guards had already respected her as the eldest lady. If she had been back in the capital for a long time, would she still have a say in the Qiao family?
