Chapter 25 - A New Sister

The  next morning,the entire Zhang family had been summoned to have a breakfast at home.Dr Zhang Shu was sitting in the living room with his wife He Luo waiting for their sons to arrive.Zhang Fei and Zhang Yi lived in their quarters at the Country C's embassy,here in country A.They were both set to leave today to resume their duties and thought that this was a farewell garhering.Though they knew about the new situation at home,they did not expect to meet a new sister today itself.Dr Zhang looked up the stairs waiting for his youngest to at least come down to wait for his brothers and Shi Ai.He looked at his wife who was sitting with her head leaned back and eyes closed.

Finallt he rang the bell on the side to summon Uncle Chu.Uncle Chu was the caretaker of the house when the family was not in residence and acted as a butler when the family was in residence.Uncle Chu came and bowed to Dr Zhang.This almost made Dr Zhang roll his eyes.Uncle Chu was the most insolent butler to have ever existed.He never bowed unless he wanted to show off.Summons were answered depending on his mood.And he was like a ghost who came with the house..But Dr Zhang tolerated all this because he was a magnanimous man,it certainly was not because the man's cooking was heavenly.Since there was no one around to show off,what was this man upto?Dr Zhang stared at the man and decided it would not be prudent to question him about this oddity in case he poison his food later so he directly asked,"Where is Zhang Min?"Uncle Chu had only a soft spot for the mischievous youngest boy of the family.The rest were only tolerated.So he had no problems answering,"Young master has gone to bring the young miss home.He was worried she might get lost."Dr Zhang Shu felt his brows touch his hairline as the words came out of the butler's mouth.Even Mrs Zhang had opened her eyes and was currently staring at Uncle Chu,who stood there as if he had not just dropped a bomb.But of course he had.The first being that Shi Ai had already been referred to as the young miss when he even now acknowledged them only as Dr Zhang and Mrs Zhang instead of Master and Madam.And the other being that their youngest had actually left the bed willingly early in the morning and on a holiday and even gone to bring the new member of the family home..They needed to check if the sun rose from the north today!

Soon,the Zhang brothers arrvide one after the other.And they too were shocked at their little brother's behavior.Dr Zhang explained that Shi Ai was going to be their foster sister and also hinted that they should take care of her as they were indebted to her in someway though they were not clear.Dr Zhang felt that this was not required to explain to Zhang Min as he already seemed to have accepted a new sister..Zhang Fei and Zhang Yi had both felt the explanation to be inadequate but out of respect for their father,said nothing.They decided that to wait and see was a better approach.So Shi Ai was going to be welcomed into the family with a little cautiousness.
