Tsk. Still helping me? That's really shameless. But Xihe didn't care. They each got what they needed.
The two sides reached a consensus, and the tense situation instantly became intimate.
"My son, you haven't been back for many years and haven't seen your brother and sister yet. They must be so happy to know you're back." As he said that, he took Xihe to meet his two children.
He completely forgot that his eldest daughter was exhausted from the long journey.
"But mom, I'm tired." Xihe would not endure it and said directly.
Mother Lin suddenly cried out "ouch!" and cursed herself for being so stupid. She called a maid over and said, "The young lady is tired. Take her to rest."
Then she turned to Xihe and said, "My dear daughter, go and have a good rest first. I'll go to the kitchen and ask the cook to make you something delicious."
Xihe nodded in agreement.
The courtyard had probably just been cleaned up. The nanny and the maids were already there, putting the things they had brought back in their places.
"Miss, are you ready to rest?" The little girl knew Xihe's habits and quickly helped her into the house.
Xihe nodded, took off his coat and fell on the fluffy and soft bed.
There was no idea what kind of incense was burning in the room, but when Xihe woke up in a daze, it was already dinner time.
At the dinner table, she finally met the original owner's two younger siblings.
My younger brother was dressed like a scholar, with jade pendants on his body. His ordinary little face was extremely serious. He didn't speak while eating or sleeping.
When Lin's mother wanted to serve him some food, her brows immediately furrowed like caterpillars. She said little and was very polite to Xihe.
"Mom, I want to eat that." Unlike her brother Lin Chen, the little girl is quite spoiled.
When Xihe entered the room, she heard her complaining that her sister went to bed as soon as she came back, which was too disrespectful to her parents. When she saw her, the jealousy in her eyes almost burst out.
After that, he kept finding fault with her, just like now, he insisted on eating the food in front of her across half the table.
"Xiaomei, come here and exchange the dishes in front of me with your sister. I'm really craving that shark sashimi." Xihe put down his chopsticks.
"Yes, miss." The naive little maid immediately took the plates and started to swap them.
"Put it down! Bitch, who told you to move?" The little girl obviously didn't expect Xihe to do this. She was stunned for two seconds and then exploded.
"Why are you so angry, sister?"
Wiping her lips with a handkerchief, Xihe looked puzzled. "Sis saw you changing four or five dishes in a row, and I think you really like the dishes here, so she wanted to exchange with you. It's fine if you don't feel grateful, but how can you scold me?"
She looked at Mother Lin with disapproval on her face: "Mother, is this how you teach your sister? If you keep calling her a bitch, the wives of the other families will definitely gossip about you when you go out."
As soon as these words were spoken, everyone in the room fell silent.
Everyone was not stupid, and everyone knew that Lin Xiang was deliberately looking for trouble. But no one expected Xihe to say it directly. He also accused Lin's mother of not being able to teach her children.
Ah, this...
Baji, baji. Lin Chen was not affected at all. He kept a straight face and ate very seriously.
"Alright, alright. It's just a small matter. Why are you making such a fuss?" Father Lin said with an impatient look on his face.
"Dad..." Lin Xiang was unwilling to accept it. Why was this stinky woman Lin Rou so lucky? She had lived in the Fu family since she was a child, lived a life of luxury, and called the Third Rank Lady her aunt. What about her?
She could only wander around in this small piece of land, and she didn't even know which direction the city gate of the capital faced.
When she thought of this, tears came to her eyes, which scared Lin's mother. When had her doted-on daughter ever shed tears?
Mother Lin immediately felt distressed and looked at Xihe reproachfully: "Rou'er, your sister is still young. You are the older sister, so you should give in to her more."
Xihe...
