Chapter 13 Pitiful Sister
"Mother, I'm going to help my eldest brother. He's a hero in the family."
Lin Yuesha firmly believed that although her stepbrother was a bit of a fool, as long as she kept an eye on him, he wouldn't suffer any major losses.
Moreover, this honest stepbrother is quite easy to talk to, so she must cultivate a good relationship with him in order to better enslave him.
After all, the food at home couldn't have been obtained without Xiao Qi's help.
"Go."
Mrs. Chen nodded. She was quite pleased that Xiaoya had suddenly become so diligent.
The midday sun is strong and feels warm on the skin.
Lin Yuesha came out of the kitchen, squinted her eyes, and lazily didn't want to move.
Xiao Qi put away his brush and ink, then turned to look at Lin Yuesha. His little sister certainly knew how to enjoy herself. She stretched and yawned, just like a lazy cat sunbathing its belly at the village entrance.
"Big brother, you've worked hard."
Lin Yuesha's words were insincere; without her, everything would have been in vain.
Thinking of Granny Wang, who came empty-handed and let the villagers take advantage of her, Lin Yuesha gritted her teeth and decided she couldn't let it go like that.
"It's not hard, it's just that sitting for a long time makes my back a little sore."
A glint flashed in Xiao Qi's eyes, but he quickly regained his honest and simple expression and solemnly patted his back.
Seeing this, Lin Yuesha immediately fawned, "Big brother, how about I give you a tap?"
She understood the principle that you have to feed a horse before you can make it run.
Her mother, Chen, had just promised her that the whole family would have noodles with garlic sprouts and cured pork for dinner, and she was in a good mood right now.
Seeing that her hardworking and meritorious older brother was carrying a sore back, Lin Yuesha immediately took action.
Xiao Qi suppressed a laugh and said in a serious tone, "Then I'll have to trouble you, sister."
"No trouble at all, we're family."
Lin Yuesha stepped forward with a smile, thinking to herself, "This is not trouble at all. Next, I need to find a way to buy some red paper and trick this silly stepbrother into doing hard labor before the New Year so that I can earn more money."
With this in mind, she became even more dedicated to massaging Xiao Qi's back.
"Big brother..."
Although Xiao Qi is six years older than Lin Yuesha, they are quite a height difference. Lin Yuesha has to stand on tiptoe to massage Xiao Qi's back. Because the angle is wrong, the massage has no force and is more like fluffing cotton.
Xiao Qi hesitated, looking troubled.
Lin Yuesha tapped twice and felt it, her face immediately turning red.
She's already twelve, and will be thirteen at the start of the year. In the village, quite a few girls her age are already engaged.
Lin Yuesha gritted her teeth, looked down at her flat chest, and felt like crying.
No way! She's not eating well, so she's developing slowly. Look at her older brother, what did he eat to grow up like that? Although he's thin, he has broad shoulders, a narrow back, and long legs. It's so unfair!
With no more movement behind him, Xiao Qi couldn't help but smile. This little sister was much more interesting than he had imagined, always making him want to tease Lin Yuesha.
"Then I'll sit here; this height is just right."
Xiao Qi gestured with his hand, pulled up a chair and sat down, indicating to Lin Yuesha to continue massaging.
Lin Yuesha: "..."
He was sitting, she was standing, and she even had to massage her stepbrother's back. It felt like she was a maidservant serving a landlord!
Suppressing her grief and indignation, and remembering that Xiao Qi still had some use, Lin Yuesha continued to do hard labor.
Never mind, the food at home was all obtained through Xiao Qi's exchange. She's indebted to him, so it's only right that she does some hard work.
"Put more force on the left side."
The tapping force was just right, and Xiao Qi closed his eyes comfortably, giving instructions.
