In the morning, Lin Chaobei brought his new wife to serve tea to Yue Jiuyue, and they exchanged gifts. Lin Chaonan then went to town.
In the afternoon, Lin Chaonan took Xiaoman'er to town to see Liu Shi, and she ended up crying all the way back.
The little girl, who was raised to be as beautiful as a porcelain doll, looked especially pitiful with her red eyes and nose from crying.
"Third brother, what's going on?"
Yue Jiuyue held Xiaoman'er in her arms and patted her gently. On the other hand, Dazhuang, who didn't understand anything, was still crying and sleeping restlessly in Grandma Zhou's arms.
Before Lin Chaonan could answer, Xiaoman'er cried and said:
"Grandma, does Mom really not want me and my brother anymore? She's holding a little girl from who-knows-who, and I wanted her to hold me, but she wouldn't. She even complained that I was too loud and woke up the little girl. She's so nice to that little girl! She's disgusted with me! She definitely doesn't want me anymore! Waaaaaah..."
Xiaoman was heartbroken. Her loud cry startled Dazhuang, who was already sleeping restlessly, awake. Before he even opened his eyes, he burst into tears along with Xiaoman, as if he had suffered a great injustice.
That's true. The child may be young and not understand, but it's as if he has suffered a great injustice!
Otherwise, Xiaoman wouldn't have cried all the way here because she felt so sad.
Yue Jiuyue, unaware of the situation, simply patted Xiaoman'er's back gently, comforting her:
“That little girl is the one your mother is supposed to take care of. Only by taking good care of that girl can your mother get her wages. She didn’t mean to be mean to you.”
"I don't believe it! My mother just doesn't want me anymore!"
Xiao Man'er suddenly yelled at Yue Jiuyue, then slid to the ground and ran away.
Following behind were Old Mrs. Zhou, Zhou Siya, and several other maids. Yue Jiuyue wasn't worried about Xiaoman'er.
She frowned, went to the yard to wash her face, and cleaned the spit off her face. Then, while wiping her face, she listened to Lin Chaonan answer her questions.
"Mom, I think it might not be a good idea."
Exactly! The way my sister-in-law treats Xiaoman and Dazhuang is so different from how she treats the little girl in her arms! She doesn't treat them like her own daughter or son at all, but she dotes on that little girl so much, she looks like a real mother treating her own daughter.
These are words that a younger brother-in-law like him should not have spoken.
However, this family is currently relying on him and his mother to support it. What if his mother doesn't know anything and gets deceived by others?
This "person" naturally refers to Lady Liu.
Who knows if Liu Shi might one day find herself unable to stay in a wealthy family, and then return as if nothing happened to continue being his sister-in-law? He could tell that his sister-in-law was no longer the same as before; she had quite a few tricks up her sleeve.
The brothers were able to live a comfortable life with servants at their beck and call thanks to their mother. And the fact that Lady Liu could have a group of maids serving her so attentively was not solely because she was a wet nurse.
"Hmm? Not a good idea?"
It seems we have no choice but to call Lin Chaodong back.
"Then go to the city tomorrow and talk to the boss about this. See what he thinks and whether he wants to come back."
"Perfect timing, it's getting cold, winter will be here soon. Bring some winter clothes for your brother when you go."
Yue Jiuyue frowned and gave him instructions.
