Volume One: The Most Embarrassing Transformation in History, Four Times, Cutting My Heart with a Ninja Character

  The sky brightened again, and sunlight slanted through the small window sill, shining directly onto the face of the girl on the bed.

  The girl's skin was fairly pale, with ordinary features, simple and clean, neither beautiful nor ugly. But when the sunlight shone through, it illuminated her sleeping expression, making her slightly open mouth and scrunched up face look particularly vivid. It seemed as if the sunlight had disturbed her sweet dreams, so the girl woke up with a scowl on her face, but still looked endearingly lively.

  "Really?"

  A soft knock at the door.

  Qin Meng suddenly opened his eyes, sat up with a twist of his mouth, and quickly changed into a T-shirt and casual pants. He walked to the door in a few steps, turned the handle, and pulled it open.

  "Good morning, Mom." She forced a sweet smile, eagerly awaiting Pei Xia's satisfaction, hoping that Pei Xia would forget about sending her to "Xiping Hospital". Although this smile had already made her feel a little nauseous inside - "I'll endure!" Qin Mou muttered the endurance mantra in her heart.

  Pei Xia's face indeed broke into a smile, this second daughter used to be a bit dull, later became "crazy and silly", now with such a sweet smile is the first time she saw, couldn't help but feel delighted.

  "Have your breakfast, Mengmeng. Hurry up to the bathroom to wash up, Mom made soy milk this morning and it's best to drink it while it's hot."

  Qin Miao nodded and quickly walked into the small bathroom.

  Washing her face and brushing her teeth, simple actions, but she still felt awkward. In her previous life, as a noble young master, she had servants to attend to her daily needs. At that time, Qin Mo would bathe in fragrant water every morning, rinse with orchid tea, burn incense, and have beautiful women hold perfumes for her while gentle hands helped her change clothes. Although the modern toothbrush was more convenient than those of her past life, this couldn't be a reason for her to enjoy doing things herself.

  "Whatever..." She sighed again, "I said don't think about it too much, the more you think, the more painful it is. Haven't I had enough of those crazy days at Xiping Hospital? Even if it's just to get away from that awful place, I'll endure this suffering!"

  Endurance, if it becomes a habit, is actually not so difficult after all.

  Qin Miao quickly finished washing up and walked into the living room with big strides.

  The small suite of Qin's family is really small. The living room and dining room have always been used together, so the tea table in front of the sofa is also a dining table, and breakfast is placed on the tea table.

  Qin Yunzhi was already sitting on the single sofa to the left of the tea table eating breakfast, with a bun in one hand and soy milk in the other, and some white bun crumbs still stuck to his face.

  Qin Miao couldn't help but purse her lips in distaste, Qin Yunzhi's eating manners were really unrefined and unpleasant to watch. She thought to herself: "Even the rough servants in our household don't eat as sloppily as this."

  But times have changed, and people under the same roof can't be compared to the past. Qin Mian naturally wouldn't say anything more. She directly sat down on the other end of the sofa, as if she hadn't seen Qin Yunzhi, and elegantly started drinking her soy milk, lost in thought.

  The first mouthful, Qin Mo held it in his mouth for a moment, then swallowed it like medicine. The second mouthful, Qin Mo encouraged himself: "Better than the food at Xiping Hospital, bear with it!"

  "Hey, why are you just drinking soy milk and not eating the baozi?" Pei Xia took off the apron from her waist and threw it onto the armrest of the sofa, then walked over to sit down on the single-person sofa in front of Qin Yunzhi, also picking up her bowl of soy milk to drink.

  Qin Mian endured and finally stretched out his hand, using his thumb and index finger to pick up a corner of the bun and brought it to his mouth to take a bite.

  Although it's like chewing on sawdust, apart from going to "Xiping Hospital", everything else is easy to say.

  Pei Xia ate while secretly sizing up her daughter, seeing her calm and quiet demeanor, she felt a great deal of comfort in her heart, and the worry that had been hanging for a long time was also put down by more than half.

  "Mom, I'm done!" Qin Yunzhi wiped his mouth and grabbed the school bag beside him, rushing straight out the door without even looking at Qin Mian once from head to toe.

  "Hey, you kid, just had breakfast, slow down!" Pei Xia's voice hadn't faded away when Qin Yunzhi slammed the door shut and left.

  "Look at your brother... sigh!" Pei Xia habitually complained, and Qin Mo smiled slightly in response.

  Actually, Qin Miao really wanted to retort a few words, but considering the principle of being frugal with words, she forcibly endured it. As for Qin Gongzi, he has always been eloquent and had a chatty trait, so now that he wants her to pretend to be gentle, it's indeed not easy. However, in this bizarre and chaotic era, she has endured everything else, so what's left is nothing she can't endure.

  For the next few days, Qin Mou stayed at home all the time, not going out of the door or stepping over the threshold, and only accompanied Pei Xia day and night. She lived in fear, as if she was walking on thin ice, afraid that Pei Xia would be dissatisfied with her again, thinking that she had gone mad, and then send her back to "Xiping Hospital".

  That afternoon, Qin Peixiang came back from work and suddenly brought a surprise to Qin Miao.

  He held a briefcase in one hand and a large plastic bag in the other, and when he saw Qin Miao sitting on the sofa watching TV, he shouted: "Miao Miao, Daddy bought you books back!"

  Qin Miao was surprised and then delighted, hurriedly walking towards Qin Pei Xiang to greet him. As she took the plastic bag from his hand, she sweetly said: "Thank you, Daddy!" She had been pretending to be gentle for several days now, and with the good things in her hands, it wasn't so hard to continue acting obediently.

  Open the bag, the thickest one is "Modern Chinese Dictionary", there are three volumes of "The 5,000-year History of China" and another set of six volumes is "100,000 Whys".

  There were ten books in total, and Qin Mù was overjoyed as if she had obtained a treasure. She thought that in her previous life, there were only 100,000 volumes of books in her personal library, but even if she had gotten rare ancient books, she wasn't as happy as she was now getting these ten books.

  Qin Peixiang's big hand couldn't help but lift up, gently stroking Qin Miao's little head, following her soft hair to touch it.

  Qin Miao's hair wasn't long, it was a student-style haircut that just reached her shoulders. She usually just casually combed it and let it hang loose. When Qin Peixiang touched her, her body involuntarily stiffened for a moment. After a while, she seemed to feel the warmth transmitted from Qin Peixiang, and only then did she slightly recover her natural demeanor.

  "Alright, I'll let it slide since you bought me a book. But honestly, do you think I'm some kind of puppy? Touching me like that? Hmph!"

  Dinner was still eaten by Qin's father, mother and Qian Miao, the three of them together. The eldest sister of the Qin family, Qin Yunting, is now in her third year of high school, and with the college entrance examination just over a month away, she has been living in the school dormitory since entering high school and will not be returning home for the time being. The only boy, Qin Yunzhi, is currently in his first year of junior high school, and as the semester draws to a close, his studies are becoming increasingly busy, so he usually eats dinner at school and then does half an hour of extra homework before returning home.

  Qin Miao still couldn't enjoy her dinner, especially the chili peppers in the dish were unbearable for her. During the Northern Song Dynasty, there was no chili pepper, and Qin Miao didn't like to eat spicy food either. However, Pei Xia's cooking style was always biased towards salty and spicy flavors, and Qin Miao didn't dare to express any opinions about it. She could only endure it, thinking that it would pass eventually.

  Fortunately, today I got the surprise of getting a new book, and Qin Miao felt less difficult to eat dinner. She listened to the idle chat between Qin Pei Xiang and his wife on one side, and on the other side, she exercised her good upbringing of "eating without speaking", chewing and chewing, and finished eating.

  "Qin Mian, how have you been feeling these past few days?" After dinner, Qin Pei Xiang started examining Qin Mian again. This was something he did every day to confirm whether his daughter had returned to normal.

  "It's okay, I just reviewed some old textbooks, it's like reviewing at home."

  "Are you getting into the book?"

  "It's okay," Qin Mu smiled slightly, "the more you read it, the more transparent it becomes."

  "Hmm!" Qin Peixiang nodded, still feeling a little surprised and delighted in his heart.

  Ever since the last time, he felt that this daughter was different from before. Although she still spoke little and rarely expressed her feelings, there seemed to be some extra flavor in every word and action of the second daughter. Qin Pei Xiang didn't know how to describe it specifically, but he just felt that this change was heading in the direction of temperament.

  It's as if it were an unpolished jade being refined, gradually developing its warmth and elegance.

  Maybe this daughter really doesn't have to go to "Xiping Hospital" again.
