Chapter 146 Take your sister to play by the river
Qin Xiaoxiao's eyes were red and swollen, with bluish rims. Oh, and one of them was black. Her lips were pale, and her face was as white as a female ghost. Her vacant gaze looked like she had been tortured all night... well, you know.
If Qin Yue were from the same world as Qin Xiaoxiao, she would immediately exclaim, "Oh no, a zombie!"
Qin Xiaoxiao remained silent for a while, which startled Qin Yue. She raised her hand and slapped Qin Xiaoxiao's arm, "Sister, what's wrong? Don't scare me! Are you alright?"
Qin Xiaoxiao suddenly took a deep breath, her eyes regaining a glimmer of light. She turned her head and stared blankly at Qin Yue, "You're finally awake."
Qin Yue breathed a huge sigh of relief when she saw Qin Xiaoxiao speak. "Oh my god, sis, you're finally alright! I thought something had happened to you. I couldn't wake you up no matter what I did. But I had a way. I just hit you and you woke up."
Qin Yue clapped her hands happily, looking as joyful as a lucky charm.
Qin Xiaoxiao glared at Qin Yue through gritted teeth, "So what? Should I thank you?"
Qin Yue waved her hand magnanimously, "No need, we're like family, you're my own sister, we'll be spending a lot of time together as sisters in the future!"
Qin Xiaoxiao closed her eyes and forced out a sentence through gritted teeth, "No way, I can't take that responsibility."
Whoever wants a sister like that can have her, but she can't handle it. She almost died from overwork in just one night. If she were to spend half her life entangled with her, would she even survive?
Having finally been reborn, I absolutely cannot let this vixen ruin it.
The two sisters got up and washed up. To emphasize her miserable state, Qin Xiaoxiao stubbornly resisted washing her face and combing her hair, and went to the Qin family with her hair in a mess. As soon as she entered the house, she saw Qin's old lady walking towards the kitchen. Qin Xiaoxiao could not hold back any longer and rushed towards Qin's old lady.
"Grandma, waaaaah..."
Qin Xiaoxiao bumped headfirst into Old Mrs. Qin's arms. In order to get right into her arms, Qin Xiaoxiao deliberately half-squatted, and her crouching and hunched posture was extremely awkward.
Grandma Qin was startled. She patted Qin Xiaoxiao's back and looked at Qin Yue, "What's wrong? Why are you crying so early in the morning? Who bullied you? Tell Grandma, and Grandma will stand up for you."
Before Qin Xiaoxiao could complain, Qin Yue scratched her head and then spoke up with a blank look, "No, we haven't run into anyone since we got up. My sister was acting strange when she woke up this morning, she was acting like a fool. Grandma, you should ask her. She won't tell me."
After giving her explanation, Qin Yue went to the main hall to have breakfast with a relaxed expression, completely unaware that she was the one who had ruined her cousin like this.
Qin Xiaoxiao was shocked to see Qin Yue go to eat breakfast without a care in the world.
Holy crap! She just left like that? Doesn't she even know how to clean up the mess she made?
They even called her an idiot! You're the idiot, your whole family are idiots... Waaah... This is so unfair! How did she end up in the same family as this witch? Her life is so miserable.
Grandma Qin patted Qin Xiaoxiao on the back, "What happened? Tell me."
Seeing the anxious look on Grandma Qin's face, Qin Xiaoxiao started crying again, feeling wronged. "Grandma, please get that brat away! I can't take it anymore. If I sleep with her for another night, I'll die of exhaustion."
When Qin Xiaoxiao recounted what happened last night, Grandma Qin couldn't help but laugh. "That's all? I thought something was wrong. She's still young, you, as her older sister, should be more accommodating."
Grandma Qin didn't take it seriously at all. She slapped Qin Xiaoxiao away, turned around, and went into the kitchen, leaving the shocked Qin Xiaoxiao standing there bewildered in the wind.
Isn't she still her grandmother's most beloved eldest granddaughter? She's grown up so much, and her grandmother just dismissed her with a simple "she's still young"?
So what if she's young? Does being young give her the right to bully me?
Qin Ming came out of the house, looked at his cousin with a mournful face, thought of his sister's bizarre sleeping posture, and looked at her again with sympathy. Then he turned around, fetched some hot water from the kitchen, and brought it to Qin Xiaoxiao.
"Sis, wash your face, I'll go get you a comb."
Qin Xiaoxiao walked blankly to the washbasin, mechanically washed her face, dried it with the towel Qin Ming offered, and then took the comb. "Qin Ming, when do you start school?"
Qin Ming gave him another sympathetic look. "March."
Qin Xiaoxiao closed her eyes helplessly upon hearing this.
That's it, my life is over.
After breakfast, Qin Yue, with her innocent smile, managed to persuade Grandma Qin to allow her to go play by the river with her eldest granddaughter.
Qin Xiaoxiao said: I'm not going.
"Why not go? It's not easy for your sister to come back. We don't even dare let her play by the river during summer vacation, for fear of danger. The river is frozen solid now, so no one can fall in. Let her relax this time."
Why? Because whether the riverbank is frozen or not, it's a high-risk area for accidents, and as a casual bystander like myself, I definitely can't go there.
Seeing that Qin Xiaoxiao was unmoved, the old lady Qin offered an enticing deal, "How about this, as long as you go with your sister, Grandma will make you braised pork tonight."
Qin Xiaoxiao shook her head, drooling, "Too greasy, I'm on a diet."
Grandma Qin hardened her heart and said, "Make another spicy chicken dish."
Qin Xiaoxiao swallowed hard. "That's too extravagant. Let's not go for it."
Grandma Qin glared at Qin Xiaoxiao and said angrily, "Make another ginseng chicken soup."
Qin Xiaoxiao didn't dare to meet the old lady's gaze, and turned her face away, saying, "Grandma, we don't have any ginseng in our family."
I have it in my space, but I won't give it to you.
Grandma Qin was furious. "Qin Xiaoxiao, I'm not discussing this with you, but telling you that you must accompany your sister to play by the river today."
Although she dotes on her eldest granddaughter, her younger granddaughter also grew up by her side. She held and coaxed her a lot when she was little, and she was also the apple of Grandma Qin's eye.
The main problem is that the river is frozen, so there's really no danger. Otherwise, Grandma Qin wouldn't have let them go out to play.
Qin Xiaoxiao looked at Grandma Qin with a puzzled expression, "Grandma, why does she insist that I go play with her?"
Grandma Qin was taken aback.
Yes, why must Xiaoxiao accompany him?
Grandma Qin couldn't help but look at Qin Yue beside her.
Qin Yue looked completely bewildered. "Why are you looking at me?"
Grandma Qin closed her eyes briefly. "Xiaoyue just likes to stick to you. If you don't keep her company, who will?"
Qin Xiaoxiao sighed.
"Okay, I'll go."
Qin Xiaoxiao stood up with a bitter expression, took Qin Yue's hand, and walked outside.
She really didn't want to go. In the second timeline of the novel, she died in the river. Even if it was a frozen river, she was still afraid!
But there shouldn't be any problem, right? It's frozen so thick, and there are quite a few children on the river. She can't just be unlucky enough to suddenly fall into an ice hole and drown, can she?
Qin Yue was overjoyed to be able to go out and play, especially to the riverside, which was her favorite place. She hummed a little tune and happily walked towards the river.
"Don't worry, sis, I can swim, I'm a great swimmer, I'll protect you today."
Qin Xiaoxiao's lips twitched. "Then I really have to thank you properly."
But within an hour, Qin Xiaoxiao regretted it.
If she could have another chance, she would never come to the riverbank, even if you killed her.
