After dinner, the four of them cleaned up the kitchen together, took turns washing up, and then went back to their rooms to rest.
In order to get into the city, Tao Wenwen got up very early and drove the ox cart. She was already tired after running all day. She thought she was destined to suffer from insomnia because she was not used to living in a strange place. Strangely, she fell asleep after lying down for a while.
The whole house was quiet.
At this moment, Shi Mohuai's door opened with a click. As he walked out, Shi Wangting from next door also opened the door and walked out, followed by Shi Zengyue from the next door.
The three of them looked at each other and asked in unison, "How is it?"
Shi Zengyue was the first to say, "Cute, well-behaved."
Shi Mohuai was the second to say, "Brave and smart."
Shi Wangting: “…”
Seeing that he didn't answer, the two men kicked him at the same time.
"I'm asking you a question, but you're speechless." Shi Mohuai said, and then warned, "Are you going to say something bad about her again?"
Shi Wangting: “…”
He stepped back into the room innocently, "When did I say anything bad about her?"
Shi Mohuai confirmed: "In the hospital."
"Then when you came back from the countryside, didn't you say that Tao Wenwen had bad character?" Shi Wangting argued.
"I realized my mistake and corrected it immediately." Shi Mohuai said, "But you didn't. You didn't say a word to Wenwen the whole night."
Shi Wangting wanted to, but he found that he couldn't get a word in at all.
Shi Zengyue treated him as his own student and taught him, "Yes, once you realize your mistakes, you should correct them immediately."
"You guys are kidding me, Tao Wenwen has only been here for one day and she's already turning her back on me. How am I going to live my life from now on?"
Before Shi Wangting could finish his words, Shi Mohuai and Shi Zengyue rushed up at the same time, frightening him so much that he quickly retreated to his room and locked the door.
He was unconvinced and said, "Even if she is really good, you can't treat me differently because of this. It's not fair!"
"Hey, you're still petty." Shi Mohuai said, "You grown man, don't you know how to give in to a girl? She will be our sister in the future."
"I don't want to be her brother!" Shi Wangting bit his tongue as soon as he finished speaking.
Shi Zengyue watched them arguing through the door and warned them at the right time, "Be careful not to wake Wenwen."
Both sides suddenly became quiet.
Shi Zengyue and Shi Mohuai outside the door looked at each other and smiled. They clearly cared about her in their hearts, but they were still so hard-hearted and refused to admit it.
Both of them shook their heads and sighed, and this time they returned to their rooms and did not come out again.
They fell asleep peacefully, but Shi Wangting tossed and turned and couldn't fall asleep.
He couldn't figure it out. Tao Wenwen wasn't that bad, right?
Why were they so excited? They kept calling him "sister" left and right in front of him, but they didn't dare to call her in front of Tao Wenwen. If they had the guts, they could call her "sister" in front of her.
The more Shi Wangting thought about it, the more he felt sleepy he became. He simply got up and sat at his desk, writing furiously.
He regarded writing as a career, and it was also his greatest hobby. Unfortunately, the revolution had not yet succeeded and more efforts were needed. It was already early morning when he finished writing. He yawned, went to bed and fell asleep.
The oil lamp on the table still had some residual light that had not burned out, illuminating what he had written, titled, The Newcomer in My Family.
On the other side, it was the heartwarming scene of the kitchen trio he had drawn before dinner.
