Chapter 41: Am I Good-looking Or Is It?
For example, now a group of generals were watching Qin Wanwan pull a black snake out from her arm.
The little black snake Qin Wanwan picked up and raised belonged to the python species; as long as it ate well, it could grow very quickly.
When she first picked it up, it was a small and thin one, likely having just hatched and come out of its shell.
By now, it was already as thick as an adult man’s two fingers, and it had also grown much longer.
As expected of their General’s daughter, the pets she played with were all so unique!
At this moment, everyone had selectively forgotten that this daughter had actively sought them out by scamming them.
As Qin Wanwan was wiping the scales on Xiao Hei’s body, she suddenly heard a cracking sound near her ear.
It sounded like something was cracking open.
She held the snake’s tail and stopped her action to listen carefully.
“Peep.”
Something else was calling!
Keke also heard it, poking his head around to search for the sound.
Xiao Hei turned its head and burrowed into the little pocket on Qin Wanwan’s chest.
“Cub! It’s your goose egg!”
This sentence was spoken a bit loudly, and everyone present turned their gaze to the little girl beside the General.
Qin Wanwan carefully took out the goose egg she had been wearing for over a month.
The incubation period for a goose egg is about a month; the one she had picked up had already hatched quite late.
A circle of cracks appeared on the surface of the heavy, originally very smooth, big white goose egg.
The area where the little goose’s beak would be was the most cracked, and the eggshell was pushed from the inside from time to time.
Watching the little one hatch on the spot, not only Qin Wanwan was curious, but all the adults present were also curious.
So, they stopped discussing and one by one, the burly men all gathered around the little girl.
“Push harder, push harder! Oh, why did it stop now?”
“Nonsense, it must be tired and needs to rest.”
“It’s so slow, will it come out today?”
Keke grumbled, “Can you guys act like adults? You’re all crowded around, blocking the light, and I can’t see clearly!”
“Oh, Keke, don’t be so stingy. I’ve never seen a little goose hatch before.”
Xie Chong: ………
These childish people were his capable subordinates!
The little goose being cared for by Qin Wanwan finally pushed open the eggshell on its head and came out under everyone’s watchful eyes.
“Great!!!”
A group of people clapped with joy.
The scene made it seem like a magnificent performance, if one didn’t know what was happening.
Xie Chong glanced at everyone, “Do you all have nothing to do?”
Everyone’s demeanor immediately tightened, and they nodded repeatedly.
“Yes, yes! I’ll go check on how my soldiers are training; those little brats are always slacking off.”
“General, I’ll take my men to patrol the city.”
“General, I’ll go see if the craftsmen have designed any better weapons.”
They all scurried away quickly.
Xie Chong picked up Qin Wanwan.
At this moment, the little girl was still smiling and looking at the fluffy little goose in her hands.
The feathers of a newborn gosling are wet, but they dry quickly.
Once dry, the silvery-gray down clinging to its skin would stand up.
This little down also had a touch of sophistication.
“Daddy, the little goose is beautiful.”
The little goose had recovered some strength and was very attached to Qin Wanwan. The fluffy little ball was completely pressed against her palm, its head with a small pink flat beak also pressed against the inside of her wrist.
“Peep peep~”
The little goose’s call was quite cute, not as loud and high-pitched as a big goose’s. It was soft and tender, similar to a chick’s.
Xie Chong glanced at it, not finding it particularly beautiful, but he still nodded, agreeing with her.
However, this little goose was quite large.
Nurtured by Qin Wanwan’s spiritual charm, even though the little goose was underdeveloped and unhealthy when she first found it, it grew better and better. Its development within the egg was much better than that of ordinary geese.
It had even absorbed all the nutrients within the egg before hatching, so the down on this little goose’s body wasn’t as wet after birth and dried quickly.
“Am I more beautiful, or is it?”
Hearing Qin Wanwan praise that silly goose, Keke, who also had feathers, felt a sense of insecurity.
Qin Wanwan comforted him, her milky voice and sincere eyes saying, “Keke is the most beautiful.”
Keke was satisfied. Indeed, in the cub’s heart, it was the best.
The hatching of the goose was just a novelty for everyone, and they soon forgot about the little goose.
However, from then on, whenever Qin Wanwan came to find Xie Chong, she would be followed by a little silvery-gray fluffy ball at her feet.
Many little animals are good-looking and cute when they are young. Qin Wanwan’s little goose had the best appearance among geese.
Not only was it plump, but the down on its body was soft and fluffy. It waddled along beside Qin Wanwan as it walked.
This person and this goose were both cute creatures, and together they were even more adorable.
The group of rough men in the military camp couldn’t help but lower their voices when they saw them, as if they were afraid of startling them.
Of course, girls liked these soft and cute things the most.
The young ladies rescued from the bandits couldn’t help but pinch the little goose’s cheeks and chubby hands as soon as they saw Qin Wanwan and the little goose. The little goose was held up and petted.
The down on the little goose was as fluffy as a cloud, and feather lovers really loved it.
But the little goose only liked Qin Wanwan.
And even though the little goose was small, it was quite fierce.
It would peck at people just a few days after hatching, although it didn’t hurt.
But its stubbornness, not wanting others to hold it, was quite strong.
Despite being a little fat goose, it had the demeanor of a bird of prey.
“Alright, alright, I won’t hold you anymore. Why are you so fierce?”
The girl holding the little goose had just put it down when it flapped its short legs and wings, then plunged into Qin Wanwan’s arms like a little cannonball.
Qin Wanwan picked it up, her little chubby hands sinking into the fluffy down.
The delicately carved, snow-white little baby holding the fluffy little goose melted the hearts of the young ladies.
“Wanwan, you must come visit us often.”
“Yes, just bring Keke and the little goose. You’d better not bring that snake.”
Now they all knew that Qin Wanwan had a black snake.
The first time they saw it, most of the women in the room screamed in fright.
“Xiao Hei is very beautiful.”
She thought Xiao Hei was very pretty, slender and long, with beautiful scales, and small fangs.
The young ladies: We can’t appreciate it!
Xiao Hei, who was sadly disdained, was currently being held by the Great General Xie, its body almost stiffened into a stick.
“Why are you getting darker and darker?”
Xie Chong pinched Xiao Hei’s vulnerable spot, his tone filled with a hint of confusion.
Although this species of snake was black, it tended to become lighter in color as it grew.
This snake, however, was becoming darker and darker, turning black like coal.
Xiao Hei wanted to escape, but it was always caught.
It accepted its fate…
Because the young ladies were afraid, Qin Wanwan left Xiao Hei with her Daddy this time and ran off to play with the young ladies.
It wasn’t until her face was pinched red and she had even worn a beautiful silk flower around her hair, with the little goose and Keke also wearing a silk flower around their necks, that she ran back.
Xie Chong: ………
“Daddy, am I pretty~”
