CH 123

According to the current standard of living, they should generally bring a few pastries, order some dishes or some meat. They could also bring a pair of new shoes or something of the sort.

But it seemed to her that her fourth sister was going to pull a big move this time.

In order to stabilize the situation and to prevent those in her maternal family from coming over to her place, she loudly exclaimed, “Third sister, when you’re going home, remember to tell mother that I will show up for her birthday. I will definitely give her an unforgettable birthday celebration.”

Lin Mei was now certain that Lin Lan was going to use a bunch of her money and flaunt it on their mother’s birthday. Her mood soured and she let out a harumph.

Lin Lan looked at her sister’s face and said, “Third sister, can you lend me around 10 Yuan?”

Lin Mei was so frightened that she immediately took two steps back and looked at her defensively as if she had seen a ghost.

Has my fourth sister gone insane? No matter how much she starved back then, she would never even consider opening her mouth and asking for money. Now, why was she getting money from me when she had 100 Yuan on her hands?

There must be something wrong with this.

Thanks to the original owner’s previous habits of remaining stubborn, Lin Mei never would have thought that this tactic of hers was meant to scare her.

Immediately, the third sister thought of the 100 Yuan that Lin Lan just obtained. If she was going to borrow money from her right now, would that mean that she had practically used up the entire sum? “You failure of a woman, 100 Yuan is something that I can’t even finish spending in my entire lifetime, did you use it all entirely?”

Lin Lan shrugged nonchalantly, “If you were able to find me here, haven’t you heard about the fact that I practically swept the entire fair? I still have a bunch of stuff that I haven’t had the chance to buy. I couldn’t get my hands on cotton, some secondary foods and whatnot…”

“Stop, stop, just stop talking about it,” Lin Mei didn’t deny the fact that she had 10 Yuan with her, but she merely said, “You are already capable enough to finish spending 100 Yuan, what can 10 Yuan do for you? I practically finished spending it long ago.”

Lin Lan stopped spurting nonsense with her, “Third sister, are you going to sit for a while at my house?”

Although the two of them fought each other all the time since they were little, Lin Mei was still her elder twin sister, so Lin Lan actually did want to get a little closer to her.

Besides, Lin Mei would only mock her and fight her. Never did her teases escalate to her taking advantage of her younger twin sister.

Well, it was the original owner and Lin Mei who fought constantly.

Lin Mei snorted, “Forget it, I still have something to do at home.”

She turned her head and asked how much did Big Sister Liu charge Lin Lan. Big Sister Liu gestured the amount. 

Lin Mei glared at Lin Lan, “Well, that is a pretty big profit at the moment,” Then she said to Big Sister Liu, “She’s family, so give it to her at a cheaper price.”

Lin Mei asked Big Sister Liu to refund 1 Yuan to Lin Lan.

Big Sister Liu’s face was aching as she had painstakingly went through so much to find a benevolent person that didn’t argue about the price. However, she followed Lin Mei’s orders as she was their leader.

Lin Lan said, “You don’t need to give me a refund, but I would like to trouble you to pay attention to the cotton. I wasn’t able to get cotton at all and the items I have at home are almost falling apart.”
