CH 8

Mother Xiao often compared the original owner with her younger sister to point out her lack of ability.

Mother Xiao lightly nodded and motioned for her to find a chair to sit down on.

“I just happened to have something to tell you two.”

Xiao Yan lowered her hand and directly sat on the chair next to Xiao Shu, which was closer to the main seat.

As Xiao Yan sat, she saw Xiao Shu squinting her eyes while pretending to hold a teacup. 

Xiao Shu muttered with a smile, “It seems that the eldest sister is in good health, but as a younger sister, I still have to persuade the eldest sister to work hard in moderation.”

Was she talking about moderation with her, who had been single for twenty-five years??

Seeing Xiao Yan’s puzzled expression, Xiao Shu’s eyes landed on Xiao Yan’s gauze-wrapped wrist. 

And Xiao Shu ‘concernedly’ said, “I know the elder sister is very energetic, but I think it’s better not to provoke those unruly and thorny people, so not to hurt next time.”

A’Li’s bite was so ruthless that he wanted to bite the flesh off Xiao Yan’s body. Even after wrapping the wound in gauze, there were still traces of blood oozing out.

Xiao Yan lowered her head and glanced at her injured wrist. With a magnanimous expression, she covered the gauze with her sleeves.

Xiao Yan said in a lukewarm voice, “Thank you for reminding me.”

Hearing it, Xiao Shu raised her eyebrows slightly, took the teacup, and sipped it lightly, while looking at Xiao Yan from the corner of her eye.

Xiao Yan.

She felt that something was different about her elder sister today.

If it was before, after what she said, Xiao Yan would be like a frightened rabbit, intimidating her in a restrained manner and telling her not to meddle in her business.

It seemed interesting.

Mother Xiao waited for Xiao Yan to sit down. Holding a teacup, she used the tea lid to lightly scratch the tea foam on the top layer, lowered her eyes, and said, “Yan’er has recovered from the serious illness thanks to your Aunt Li’s hard work.”

“I have met her when I was young, I have often been in contact with letters over the years. This time Aunt Li can come and live here, and I am very happy.”

Xiao Shu followed her words and carefully said, “If mother likes her, then let Aunt Li stay at our house.”

Mother Xiao nodded in agreement, “I think so too, but she definitely won’t stay in our house for no reason.”

“She is old and still has A’Li by her side. She wouldn’t be at ease here. So I thought, our two families should become relatives so that she can stay here with her son.”

Xiao Yan’s heart twitched, but she still didn’t ask. 

Xiao Yan lowered her eyes and stared at her pale fingers resting on the handle of the chair, and slowly moved the tip of her index finger—

—— Could this be the legendary golden finger??

When Xiao Shu heard those words, her eyelids jumped wildly. 

She faintly had a bold guess, so she pretended to drink tea and didn’t answer the question.

Sure enough, a few moments later,  Mother Xiao spoke again.

Mother Xiao’s eyes fell on Xiao Shu, and she said, “Shu’er is the closest in age to Ah Li, and her temperament is also very gentle. After marrying A’Li, they will definitely be harmonious. “

“??!”

Xiao Yan sharply raised her head to look at Mother Xiao, wondering if the golden finger went to the wrong place??

How could it send her man to her sister?!

Hearing the clear meaning, Xiao Shu took a deep breath and gritted her teeth secretly. She squeezed her fingers tightly while holding the teacup.

She knew, she knew!

This kind of “good” thing would never happen to Xiao Yan.
