"What are you thinking about!" Qiao Gaoyang reverted to his roguish demeanor, sitting on the edge of the bed watching his younger sister unwrap her gifts.
"Can they be the same? There are also gifts here that my older brother and I gave to Yueya. I guarantee they're different from the ones we gave you before!"
Qiao Shouyan and Qiao Gaoyang knew about this younger sister's existence earlier than Qiao Xinruo, so they also prepared two gifts.
Looking at his four children, Qiao Hanxue felt for the first time that his family was truly complete.
“When she was very young, we always bought things in pairs. Later, when Xinruo grew up, I knew what she liked, so I would give her what she liked. But the gift for Crescent Moon…” Qiao Hanxue paused for a moment.
They didn't even raise their daughter by their side, so how would they know what she would like?
"So I guessed what Crescent Moon might like and bought it based on that."
In short, it was incredibly heartbreaking!
"It's okay, I like anything you give me," Su Yueya said earnestly.
She then unwrapped the gifts, from dolls and hair clips that she would like as a little girl, to cosmetics and pretty clothes that she would like as an older woman.
"Which of you gave me this lipstick?" Qiao Xinruo asked her two brothers, holding a lipstick that Su Yueya had just opened.
Qiao Shouyan silently lowered his head.
"Big brother, please don't give me these cosmetics without my permission anymore." Qiao Xinruo was speechless.
The color was so ugly she didn't even want to comment.
"Sister, I have so many cosmetics. You can use mine, take whatever you like, or ask my older brothers to give you money to buy you a whole new set!" Qiao Xinru stared at Su Yueya.
She noticed that this woman was always very plain!
The first time I met her was in class. She was basically without makeup, maybe with a little powder on, but looking at her skin up close, I guess she wasn't wearing any powder at that time.
Then there's the hospital. Who would put on makeup every day while hospitalized? What a waste of time!
But they are twins, and they look almost identical.
Qiao Xinruo thought that, given Su Yueya's personality, her preferred makeup style was most likely different from hers, which meant...
Can she see another version of herself?
Suddenly, I felt a strong urge to do it!
"It's alright, not ugly, big brother, I like it very much." Su Yueya said obediently.
The word "Big Brother" melted Qiao Shouyan's heart.
He raised an eyebrow at Qiao Xinruo with a smug look.
Qiao Xinruo: "..."
All I can say is that my sister is too kind!
Then, Su Yueya opened the package and even found a red envelope inside!
Yes, it's one of those red envelopes with money inside?
Qiao Xinruo took the red envelope and immediately pointed at her second brother, Qiao Gaoyang, glaring at him.
"This must be your doing!"
Because she received the same red envelope on her birthday one year.
Qiao Gaoyang touched his nose in frustration.
Su Yueya secretly opened it and peeked inside. Actually, the red envelope was quite large, rather thick.
"Yueya, don't be angry with your second brother. I had a mission at that time and almost couldn't make it back in time, so I couldn't prepare anything else," Qiao Gaoyang explained.
"Thank you, Second Brother!" Su Yueya wasn't angry at all.
This melted the heart of the second brother.
With noon fast approaching, Qiao Hanxue volunteered to cook today!
"Crescent Moon, Dad's cooking today, I'm going to make you a big feast!" Qiao Hanxue said, rolling up his sleeves, ready to get to work.
They purchased the ingredients a day in advance specifically for today's meal.
“Dad is an excellent cook!” Qiao Xinruo explained to Su Yueya, “but he’s usually too busy to cook, so we’re only able to eat here today because of my sister.”
Which member of the Qiao family isn't busy?
It's a rare and precious sight to see a family gather together for a meal.
After unwrapping the gifts, Liu Yuying didn't rush to tidy up the room. Instead, she took her two children downstairs and chatted in the living room.
They had just met as relatives, and they had so much to say and so many questions to ask.
Su Yueya's adoptive parents had passed away, and even though the Qiao family knew that her adoptive father was a sexist, they didn't say anything more.
After all, the dead should be respected, and besides, Su Yueya has finally grown up intact.
Even if we take a step back and say that Su Yueya was just a little girl who couldn't be sold and was abandoned in the village, she was kindly taken in by her foster mother.
The second thing that intrigued and bothered them was Su Yueya's marriage.
"Sister, that Lu Zhengjun is not a good person. I think you need to re-examine your marriage!" Qiao Xinruo said seriously.
She had been holding it in for a long time.
Before they were officially recognized as relatives, this was the matter that Qiao Xinruo cared about the most.
Her sister is worthy of anyone, how could she let that hypocrite Lu Zhengjun take advantage of her vulnerability?
“Yes.” The two older brothers nodded seriously as well.
Even Liu Yuying didn't say anything.
Su Yueya suddenly realized that it seemed like none of them liked Lu Zhengjun.
Why?
In Su Yueya's eyes, Lu Zhengjun was truly a very, very good person.
When she was at her most helpless and miserable, it was Lu Zhengjun who took her in and helped her.
Moreover, he has always treated her very well since they got married.
Even when he was sick and frequently fainted, he always took him to see a doctor.
In the fragments of Su Yueya's past that she could remember, the only person she ever felt warmth from was Lu Zhengjun.
She didn't remember how she lived in the Qiao family before, only that at her adoptive parents' house, her adoptive mother was good to her, but her adoptive father was a bad person who would beat and scold them at the drop of a hat.
Her adoptive mother would be beaten by her adoptive father if she treated her well, so his attitude towards her gradually cooled.
Later, she married Liu Dekai after growing up. Liu Dekai had no feelings for her, and Zhang Cuihua was only nice to her because she was the only one who could take care of her.
Later, when she came to the capital, she was heartbroken by Liu Dekai.
Lu Zhengjun was the only person in all the years she had memories of who had ever given her warmth.
She thought Lu Zhengjun was perfect in every way.
Why does it seem like his family doesn't like him?
"Why do you say he's not a good person?" Su Yueya wanted to understand.
“Crescent Moon, don’t blame your brother for investigating you,” Qiao Gaoyang stepped forward and admitted, “When Xinruo said you might be our sister, I immediately investigated and found out about your amnesia…”
“This Lu Zhengjun, he usually puts on a show and seems quite convincing. I really didn’t expect that he would dare to take advantage of your amnesia to trick you into marrying him. What’s the difference between this and kidnapping a woman?”
The two elder brothers were filled with righteous indignation.
"Mom, shouldn't we give him a demerit for this behavior?" Qiao Gaoyang said indignantly.
“We can’t give him a demerit now. Yueya hasn’t divorced him yet. If he gives her a demerit, it won’t look good on her face. We should wait until after the divorce to give her a demerit,” Qiao Shouyan added.
"No, how can he keep a record after the divorce? Isn't this punishment because he lied to Yueya?"
Qiao Gaoyang and Qiao Shouyan actually started discussing it in a very serious manner!
