"She's our older sister, not an outsider. What's there to hide?"
Zuo Ningyuan was surprised that she would use his past words to shut him up. He snorted angrily, got up and left the living room.
Now Xiao Yunying was even more curious: "What exactly happened?"
Zuo Qingzhi couldn't help but laugh when she thought about it: "Big sister, don't be fooled by the fact that I only look three-tenths like him now. When we were little, we looked five or six-tenths alike."
One summer when we were nine years old, we accepted an invitation from his classmate to visit his family's estate. On the first day, we felt it was too hot, and women's clothes were too cumbersome and not as convenient as men's clothing. So, I secretly went to his room and took a set of his clothes and had the nanny dress me up.
When I went out, I went to the backyard to use the restroom. I went into the women's area and was unexpectedly seen by someone, who then started making all sorts of guesses.
Some people said he accidentally went to the wrong place, while others said he was actually a woman who had been disguised as a man to study at the academy. In short, there were all sorts of rumors. Even after they saw the two of us standing in front of them, the story was still passed around as a joke for a long time.
This was all a misunderstanding. Besides, I didn't do it on purpose. We look alike, and I was even wearing his clothes, so it's normal for others to mistake me for him. But he thinks it's my fault, and he glares at me every time it's brought up.
Xiao Yunying then understood why Zuo Ningyuan had reacted so strongly earlier. If she hadn't explained it clearly, he would have been completely disgraced.
Even if he explains it clearly, his friends will probably tease him about it from time to time, so it's definitely not a good memory for him.
Xiao Yunying asked, "No matter what, this whole thing started because of you, can't you go and comfort him?"
"I've coaxed her many times, and I usually try not to mention this matter unless necessary. Today, I was thinking of telling my older sister about it."
It's nothing really. He's not entirely angry; he's more embarrassed and annoyed. Let's not talk about it anymore and let him calm down on his own.
Xiao Yunying felt that there was a reason why this girl could get along with Chen Yuanyao. The two had very similar personalities. Neither of them were the kind of well-behaved young ladies who followed the rules. They were more cheerful and lively than most women.
She glanced at the sky outside and said, "You stay here and play by yourself. I'll go prepare the ingredients; it's time to make dinner."
Zuo Qingzhi got up and gathered all the wildflowers into a small bamboo basket: "I'll go with my older sister, and I'll help you."
"Okay, come on."
My younger sister is completely clueless about cooking; she can only do chores like peeling onions and garlic, which are only good for children.
At first, she thought Zuo Qingzhi wanted to appear more diligent, but after spending the last few days together, she realized she might have been wrong.
This girl seems to be clinging to me.
At first, she wondered if she was being too narcissistic to have this feeling, since they had only known each other for a short time and didn't have that deep sisterly bond.
It was Luo Sheng's words, "She was unhappy in the Minister's mansion," that reminded him that this girl probably longed for family affection, but at home she only had a biased mother and a strict father, and an older brother who was almost the same as her and provided her with no sense of family affection.
It's understandable that a biological older sister would be drawn to her sudden appearance, treating her kindly and caringly. She would cherish this warmth and like to stick close to her.
With that in mind, she stopped caring that the other person was always clinging to her.
