章節 21: Chapter Twenty-One: Thirty-Six Giant Pearls_1

The pearls come in various colors, white, pink, light blue, and black.

The splendid colors, under the rosy glow, reflect dazzling light.

"Mother, fetch a basin to hold the pearls!"

Su Qingluo happily laughed, extending her tender lotus-root-like arm into the water to retrieve the pearls, and cheerfully handed them to Li Xiu'e.

"Oh, alright."

Li Xiu'e's shock turned to delight, her heart beating rapidly with excitement as she took the pearls without even examining them closely, quickly fetched a veggie-washing basin from the kitchen.

Su Qingluo retrieved the pearls one by one from the water, placing them in the basin while merrily counting.

"One, two, three, twenty, thirty-one, thirty-six, a total of thirty-six pearls."

"Blessed by Buddha, thank you, Heaven, thank you, Buddha, thank you, Heaven's bounty, Amitabha."

Li Xiu'e held the basin with trembling arms, muttering ceaselessly under her breath.
