Xie Xia held the down jacket and gestured to her, "Let's try it first."
Yun Mo nodded, took off her coat and put on her down jacket.
It looks pretty good on the body. The belt has a great waist-tightening effect, and the circle of fox fur on the hat makes the skin look white, making the whole person look particularly tender and moist.
"It's pretty good. If you don't have it handy, I can lend it to you first."
Xie Xiafeng said calmly, obviously misunderstanding that Yun Mo's hesitation was due to financial constraints.
"No, it's not about the money. I originally thought that this dress would look old-fashioned, but I didn't expect it to look good on me."
Zeng Fang also swiftly tried on another black one, and when she stood side by side with Yun Mo, her face immediately fell.
"They say black makes you look thinner, but why do I look fatter in black than you do in white? I look like a big bucket."
Yun Mo thought about it seriously, "Is it possible that it's not the clothes that are the problem, but that you are fat?"
Zeng Fang: “…”
Xie Xia calmly added: "That makes sense."
Zeng Fang burst into tears.
"Starting tomorrow, I'm going to lose weight!"
Yun Mo clapped her hands softly, "Great, then I don't have to order an oven tomorrow, right?"
Zeng Fang choked up, "That won't work. You promised me roast duck before. It's in the past tense, not the future tense."
Yun Mo couldn't help but pinch Zeng Fang's round face, "Okay, I won't tease you anymore. Didn't you notice that the size of your clothes is wrong?"
Zeng Fang quickly took off her down jacket and looked at the label. Sure enough, it was size XL, two sizes larger than what she usually wore.
"Do you have this black one in size M?"
The salesperson shook his head and said, "This down jacket is a hot item this year. The M and L sizes were sold out within two days of being released. Only one small white one and one extra large black one are left."
Seeing Zeng Fang's depressed look, the salesperson added: "If you are not in a hurry, I can call the head office to ask if we can transfer goods from other stores."
"Okay, then help me get a black size M."
"Okay, I'll try to help you adjust it."
After choosing clothes and paying the bill, it was almost time for lunch.
The servants brought the prepared dishes to the long dining table. The tempting aroma of the food added a touch of homely atmosphere to the large and deserted living room.
Xie Xia led the two of them to wash their hands and eat.
Sitting at the dining table, looking at the remaining empty seats, Zeng Fang couldn't help but be curious, "Sister Xia, is it just us? Doesn't your family eat at home at noon?"
"Well, my dad is at the company and won't be home for lunch, and my mom is out meeting a friend."
Yun Mo was thinking about Chun Hua, "I'll go and ask your brother and Chun Hua to come down for dinner."
Xie Xia said: "Let's go together."
As soon as I walked up to the second floor, I heard a boy's loud laughter coming from the room on the side of the corridor.
"This is the first time I heard my brother laugh so happily. It seems that the two of them get along well."
Listening to Xie Xia's jokes, Yun Mo inexplicably had a bad feeling in her heart.
When they arrived at the door of Xie Jinghuai's room and saw the scene inside, they were both stunned.
Xie Jinghuai slumped on the sofa, laughing so hard that he couldn't straighten his back. Ling Chunhua squatted in front of the coffee table with red eyes. There were more than a dozen turtles of different sizes painted on her little face with ink.
Xie Xia shouted coldly: "Xie Jinghuai, what are you doing?!"
Seeing Xie Xia and Yun Mo coming in, Xie Jinghuai stood up subconsciously, but he couldn't stop smiling on his face.
"I played checkers with her. If I lost, I had to draw a turtle on my face. I didn't expect her to be so stupid. I played more than ten games and didn't win a single one."
"Aunt..."
The moment she saw Yun Mo, Ling Chunhua's mouth pursed and she ran towards Yun Mo with a wronged look on her face.
Yun Mo went forward and hugged the man, patting his back comfortingly, "It's okay, Brother Xie was just joking with you."
"Okay, thank you Sister Xia."
While Yun Mo was helping Ling Chunhua wash her face, Xie Xia turned around and went to Xie Jinghuai's room, closed the door with her backhand, and locked it with a "click".
Xie Jinghuai realized something was wrong, hurriedly threw away the marbles in his hand, got up and ran to the bathroom.
Xie Xia was tall and had long legs, but she was not slow at all. Before Xie Jinghuai hid in the bathroom, she grabbed the back of his neck and pressed him against the wall.
Xie Jinghuai begged for mercy, "Sister, I was wrong!"
Xie Xia sneered, "What's the point of you apologizing to me? Did you make me cry?"
"I was just teasing her."
"Is it fun?"
"I was wrong. I won't do it again."
6◇9◇Book◇Bar
Yun Mo used makeup remover twice before finally cleaning Ling Chunhua's face.
Seeing her niece's delicate face slightly red from being rubbed too many times, Yun Mo felt distressed and also annoyed at Xie Jinghuai's teasing.
On the surface he looks like a well-educated young master, but I didn't expect him to be so evil at heart.
Just as I was thinking about it, a cry of "Ouch, ouch" suddenly came from outside.
When they leaned over to take a look, they saw Xie Xia grabbing Xie Jinghuai's ear and walking towards them.
Xie Xia dragged Xie Jinghuai in front of Ling Chunhua and said, "Apologize."
"sorry."
"Louder."
"sorry!"
"Who are you sorry for?"
Xie Jinghuai glared at his elder sister in shame and anger, his fair and handsome face flushed pink, but he had to give in for the sake of his ears.
"Chunhua, I'm sorry."
Xie Xia looked at Ling Chunhua with satisfaction and asked gently, "Chunhua, have you forgiven him? Or, have you also painted a big turtle on his face?"
"I don't want it!" Xie Jinghuai protested angrily.
"Shut up, it's not your turn to speak."
Xie Xia exerted force on her hands, and Xie Jinghuai immediately grimaced in pain, not daring to say a word.
Xie Xia was straightforward in character. She immediately fetched a brush and inkstone, and insisted that Ling Chunhua retaliate by drawing a big turtle on Xie Jinghuai's face.
Ling Chunhua was too timid to dare, so Xie Xia simply stuffed the brush into her hand, then held her hand, dipped it in ink and started drawing on Xie Jinghuai's face.
Seeing Xie Jinghuai being angry but not daring to speak, Yun Mo's anger turned into sympathy.
Xie Xia was ruthless in her attempt to trick her brother. The turtle she drew occupied Xie Jinghuai's entire face, and she even wanted to draw it on his hairline and neck.
After finishing the painting, Xie Xia admired it with great satisfaction.
"Okay, you can wash after dinner."
Xie Jinghuai was so angry that his face turned red and his neck became thick, "I won't eat it anymore!"
"If you don't eat, you'll be hungry."
Xie Jinghuai was so angry that he turned around and ran back to his room, slamming the door loudly.
Yun Mo felt a little sorry, "Sister Xia, the children are just playing around, just give them a few words of lecture."
Xie Xia did not comment, "It's okay, my brother has been like this since he was a child, my mother spoiled him a lot, and my father was reluctant to discipline him, so I have to take care of him, otherwise he will not know his own limitations."
