Chapter 659 Beaten
The disappointed Mao Sanmei suddenly remembered Tang Tang, turned her head to look at the little one beside her who was curiously looking up, and gestured to her.
The employee in charge of the lottery saw this and laughed, "Yes, let the little girl try it. Kids usually have good luck."
At this moment, Mao Sanmei handed the small hammer to Tang Tang.
Tang Tang received the hammer with both hands, raised it above her shoulder, and tried to smash the golden egg on the shelf, but before the hammer could drop, she stumbled forward, and besides, she wasn't tall enough to reach it.
The lottery staff laughed and helped her up, then asked, "Which one do you want to smash? Auntie will help you take it down."
Although Tang Tang couldn't hear her voice, she roughly understood her meaning, so she pointed casually at the shelf.
Seeing this, the lottery staff immediately took down the golden egg Tang Tang pointed at earlier and placed it at her feet.
"Go ahead and smash it."
Tang Tang, not being polite, immediately swung the small hammer to give it a hit.
And then——
The golden egg didn't break, not even a crack.
"Use some strength."
The lottery staff mimicked the action of applying force, truly fond of this smiling little girl, otherwise, she wouldn't have been so enthusiastic.
So Tang Tang imitated the auntie's actions, raised the hammer high, and exerted all her strength to hammer down, finally making a hole in the golden egg. That was considered a success, so the lottery employee took the small hammer back from her and helped her completely break the golden egg, then took out the paper inside.
Then she looked at Tang Tang with surprise all over her face.
"Congratulations..."
"han~"
"It's the first prize, a fifty-five-inch big color TV."
"han~?"
Seeing that Tang Tang didn't understand, the lottery staff stood up, handed the paper to Mao Sanmei, and then pointed to the prize area behind her where the fully packaged big TV was.
Mao Sanmei was quite surprised but not unexpected, because she knew her daughter had amazingly good luck.
She let Tang Tang try it herself, originally hoping she'd draw the scooter they liked, but didn't expect they'd get the big color TV, the best prize.
"Where do you live, should I arrange for someone to help you deliver it back?" The lottery staff was very enthusiastic.
At this time, many other supermarket employees and customers, upon knowing someone had won the first prize, curiously gathered around.
"Can I exchange this first prize for a scooter?"
Mao Sanmei handed her phone to the lottery employee.
She considered it carefully, the TV was definitely more valuable, but she had no use for it as there's already a TV at the main house, and she didn't have her own place. To her, unless she sold it off, it would just be a burden.
The lottery employee, seeing this, said a bit regretfully, "You're losing out with such an exchange."
"Old Zhao, what did she say?" Someone familiar curiously asked.
"This lady wants to exchange the TV for a scooter. If anyone needs it at home, you can buy it at a cheaper price." The sister in charge of the lottery was also very kind-hearted.
"How much?" Hearing of a bargain, many people immediately inquired.
"Don't make it too outrageous. This lady can't speak, and she has a bit of a hearing problem, so you can't bully her."
For a moment, everyone was chattering away, making Mao Sanmei a bit anxious and at a loss for what to do.
So she hurriedly picked up Tang Tang, afraid she might encounter any accident.
She kind of regretted it, wishing she had never drawn this prize as she was most afraid of situations like this, where she couldn't understand what others were saying.
Luckily, the lottery employee soon negotiated with someone, not only agreeing to exchange the big TV for the scooter but also giving Mao Sanmei an additional one thousand yuan.
Surely, it was a loss, but both Mao Sanmei and the person who bought the TV were very happy, it was a win-win.
No, it was a triple win, the happiest was Tang Tang.
Riding on the scooter, Tang Tang's little short legs nearly created afterimages as she zoomed forward, the wind caressing her face, making her feel like she was soaring in the sky.
"han~han~han..."
"ah~ah~ah..."
But Mao Sanmei was anxious behind her, unable to speak, she could only make ah ah sounds and then chase with all her might from behind.
Watching Tang Tang about to ride across the road, Mao Sanmei really panicked, tears welling up in her eyes, regretting immensely why she had exchanged for this scooter.
Luckily, Tang Tang dared not cross the road alone and stopped by the roadside.
Mao Sanmei rushed and scooped Tang Tang up from the scooter, immediately giving her a few pats on her bottom.
Tang Tang was also stunned by the spanking, not understanding why mom hit her, and immediately started tearing up.
Seeing her daughter's pitiful look, Mao Sanmei's anger faded instantly, as she hugged her tightly, gently patting her back.
"ah~ah~ah..."
Then tears rolled down her cheeks, it was her first time hitting her daughter, and seeing her daughter aggrieved made her feel even worse than Tang Tang.
Tang Tang was held in her mother's arms, full of grievance, so she pouted her little lips and blew towards the air a few times.
Then a gust of wind suddenly rose, swirling around the two of them, brushing Tang Tang's hair tips, resting briefly on her shoulder, and finally flew into the high sky, disappearing into the horizon.

"The wind is too strong, close the car window."
Ruan Hongzhuang, while driving, mentioned to Shen Siyuan, who was sitting in the passenger seat.
But Shen Siyuan didn't respond, instead, he was looking out at the sky through the car window.
"What's the matter, is there something in the sky?"
Taking advantage of the red light, Ruan Hongzhuang glanced at the sky through the front windshield but saw nothing.
"There's wind," Shen Siyuan said.
"Of course I know there's wind, that's why I asked you to close the window." Ruan Hongzhuang said as she was about to close the window.
"Hold on, don't close it yet," Shen Siyuan stopped her.
"What's wrong?" Ruan Hongzhuang was somewhat surprised.
"Have you not noticed, your car stopped, yet the wind still blows in?"
"And then?"
"Is this a special wind?"
"A special wind? Are you talking about Tang Tang?" Ruan Hongzhuang suddenly caught on.
Shen Siyuan smiled and nodded.
"This... she can communicate with you even from this far?" Ruan Hongzhuang was quite shocked.
"As long as there's wind," Shen Siyuan extended his hand out the window, feeling the wind brush past his fingertips.
"Sometimes I really envy Tang Tang, born with such extraordinary abilities," Ruan Hongzhuang whispered.
She had been practicing the 'Heavenly Maiden's Skill' for some time, and even with Shen Siyuan's help, apart from improving her physical condition and becoming more charming, she hadn't gained anything else, let alone any extraordinary ability.
Seeing Shen Siyuan looking attentive, as if listening intently, Ruan Hongzhuang curiously asked, "What did she say to you?"
"She felt wronged and is complaining to me," Shen Siyuan replied.
"Wronged? What happened to her?" Ruan Hongzhuang hurriedly asked upon hearing this.
"She got her butt spanked by her mom," Shen Siyuan couldn't help but laugh.
Ruan Hongzhuang: ...
This amazing extraordinary power, used for things like this?
