"Let me introduce you, this is my goddaughter, Liu Huiyun!"
Liu Yingying pushed Pandi, who was hiding behind her, forward. The little girl was looking at her with a puzzled expression.
Isn't my name Wang Pandi?
Why did my aunt say her name was Liu Huiyun?
Seeing the little girl's confusion, Liu Yingying squatted down and explained with a smile, "Your parents named you Pandi in the hope that you would bring a younger brother, but Auntie doesn't need any older or younger brothers. From now on, you can be my goddaughter Liu Huiyun, okay?"
The little girl was briefly taken aback upon hearing this, but quickly nodded happily; "Okay, from now on I'll be your daughter, Liu Huiyun, my godmother!"
"good!"
Liu Yingying smiled and patted Huiyun's little head, then pointed at the three siblings who were dumbfounded.
"Her name is Zhu Zhaodi, she is thirteen years old, and she is your eldest sister."
“His name is Zhu Jiawang, he is eleven years old, and he is your second brother.”
"And your younger brother, Zhu Jiafu, is only eight years old."
"Hello, older brother and sister..." Huiyun greeted Zhaodi and her two siblings somewhat shyly.
She was a little nervous. Although her godmother treated her very well, she didn't know if her older brother, older sister, and younger brother would welcome her arrival.
If they don't welcome her, wouldn't she be causing trouble for her godmother?
"Hello, Huiyun! From now on, we're sisters!"
After a brief moment of surprise, Zhao Di quickly recovered, smiled, and took her hand, indicating that she shouldn't be nervous.
After receiving Zhao Di's kindness, Hui Yun seemed relieved and smiled happily.
Zhu Jiawang squinted at Huiyun from the side.
In the past, if there was anything delicious at home, the three siblings would simply share it equally. Now, there's someone else who will take away their food.
Although Huiyun is quite pretty...
Sigh! Zhu Jiawang sighed inwardly, wondering if this was a blessing or a curse.
Liu Yingying instructed, "Zhaodi, go get some dried sweet potatoes and potato chips from my room for my sister. Huiyun just arrived and isn't familiar with the house yet, so please take good care of her..."
"Don't worry, Aunt Liu, I'll take care of Sister Huiyun!" Zhao Di assured her confidently.
“And me…” Zhu Jiawangyi couldn’t resist joining in.
Liu Yingying looked around and then suddenly asked, "Where is Xianglian?"
Zhu Jiawang quickly replied, "Sister Xianglian went to Brother Xue Ye's house!"
Liu Yingying hadn't noticed when Zhu Jiawang had changed how he addressed Xue Ye, and asked in confusion:
What was she doing at Xue Ye's house?
I just ran into Xue Ye at the village entrance, but he didn't mention Xiang Lian at all.
"Forget it, I'll go and see for myself!"
Xianglian came to the countryside with her to seek refuge; she is Bai Mudan's person, so nothing can go wrong with her.
Otherwise, she wouldn't be able to explain it to Bai Mudan.
At the Xue family residence, Jiang Suyu sat on a chair with a guilty expression, looking gratefully at Xianglian who was busy helping her.
"Xianglian, you are such a beautiful, kind, and hardworking girl. Any boy who marries you in the future will be very lucky!"
The speaker may have meant no harm, but the listener took it to heart.
Xianglian paused slightly as she hung the clothes out to dry, and her face immediately turned red to the roots of her ears.
"Aunt Jiang, what nonsense are you talking about..."
"You're still shy..." Jiang Suyu couldn't help but tease, "I'm telling the truth. If my Xiaoye could marry a wife like you, I could die in peace!"
Jiang Suyu was serious about everything she said.
Although she had only known Xianglian for a few days, she really liked this girl.
She was anxious because her son was already of marriageable age but still hadn't found a wife, and she felt that she was the one who had dragged her son down.
No one in the surrounding villages was willing to marry their daughters into their family and suffer.
Having been through similar experiences, she could tell that Xianglian actually had feelings for Xiaoye...
"Sister Jiang, is your Xiaoye getting married?" Liu Yingying asked with a smile as she walked down the path.
Upon hearing this, Xianglian blushed even more, but she was mostly happy. Sister Liu was finally home!
"Yingying, you're back!" Jiang Suyu was so excited that she forgot about her injured foot and was about to stand up.
Liu Yingying's gaze fell on her right foot, which looked obviously swollen.
"Sister Jiang, how did you hurt your foot again?" She remembered that Jiang Suyu's foot injury had almost healed before.
Jiang Suyu was a little embarrassed and explained, "I'm the kind of person who can't sit still and always wants to do something within my ability. I never expected to slip and fall again while washing clothes by the river that day. Luckily, I met Xianglian..."
From her words, Liu Yingying roughly understood the whole process of how Jiang Suyu and Xianglian met.
"Xianglian is a good girl!"
Before leaving, Liu Yingying said something meaningful to Jiang Suyu.
Actually, her thoughts were similar to Jiang Suyu's; she learned about Xianglian's background from Bai Mudan.
Only then did I learn that the girl had lost both her parents at a young age and had grown up with her mean-spirited older brother and sister-in-law.
When she was eight years old, her brother and sister-in-law originally planned to sell her into a brothel, but Xianglian cried and made a scene, which was seen by Bai Mudan, who was out shopping.
Bai Mudan couldn't bear it. At that time, her father's opera troupe needed to hire two maids, so she simply bought Xianglian back.
Actors have a tough life!
Xue Ye, this young man, also had a life full of twists and turns.
However, Liu Yingying felt that Xue Ye was no ordinary person, and it would be good if Xianglian could be destined to be with him.
It's also clear that Jiang Suyu had the same idea.
However, Liu Yingying doesn't have a hobby of being a matchmaker; let the young people make their own decisions!
