Chapter 15 Training

Xia Zhizhi reached out to pinch her face, but she seemed to be afraid of being beaten and shrank back. Xia Zhizhi pinched her loose braids instead and pressed her to sit on the stool in front of the table: "So do you understand what you have to do?"

Xia Lanlan looked up at her, her eyes revealing clear stupidity. Although she didn't say anything, three words were written on her face: I don't know.

"You are such a silly girl. You have to listen to me. What's the point of listening to your parents? They will only marry you off in exchange for a dowry." Xia Zhizhi sighed.

"Don't disbelieve me. If I only arrange a job for my eldest brother after I marry him, guess where the money will come from when he wants to get married? Compared to me, my parents like you a little more, but can you surpass my eldest brother?"

Xia Zhizhi said, "The two sisters upstairs, Jinhua and Yinhua, used to look similar. Later, Jinhua married into the village and Yinhua married next door. In just two years, they look like two generations. Don't you want to live like Jinhua?"

Xia Lanlan shook her head repeatedly.

"So you have to listen to me. Only when we have a good relationship, will I be willing to help you. As for a person, 30% depends on appearance and 70% depends on dressing. I will help you to dress up. With my help, maybe I can help you find a wealthy family."

Xia Lanlan nodded: "I'll listen to you."

"That's right. Don't always expect to compete with me in the future." Xia Zhizhi stretched out her hand in front of her: "Sister is prettier than you in every part of my body, including every finger. If you really want to beat me, maybe you will have a chance when I am 80 years old."

Xia Lanlan was a little unconvinced. She glanced at the slender hands in front of her, then looked down at her own hands, and remained silent.

To know whether the hands are beautiful or not, in addition to whether the skin is delicate, there are also multiple factors such as skin color, whether the fingers are slender, and whether the nails are round.

She has long and beautiful hands. She did nothing during this period and took good care of them, applying lots of lotion on them. They are almost back to their original shape.

"Okay, okay." Xia Zhizhi helped her turn around, facing the table and the mirror: "Sister hits you for your own good. You are a person with a wicked mind. If I don't teach you more, you will suffer in the future."

Xia Zhizhi helped him untie his messy braids, fluffed up the top of his head, and re-braided it into two wide four-strand braids, so that his hair looked thicker and his face looked smaller.

She had the same face shape as Li Dongmei, but her facial features were like Xia Jianguo. Her high cheekbones and short, thick eyebrows gave her a funny and dull look. Xia Zhizhi trimmed her eyebrows a little and added a little to the ends of her eyebrows, making her look a lot prettier. She also used powder to slightly conceal the two slap marks on her face.

"Look, if I just do some fixing for you, it will look much better, right?" Xia Zhizhi pushed the mirror towards her.

Xia Fangfang looked in the mirror and suddenly felt that the person in the mirror looked a little strange. She took the mirror and held it close to her face to examine it carefully in disbelief.

"You didn't listen to me, now you know how good I am, right? You have been following me all your life and picking up the leftovers. That's enough for you."

Xia Zhizhi threw the comb away, then sat on the bed and changed her leather shoes. She raised her chin to Xia Lanlan and said, "I'm tired after a day's work. Go and clean the outside of my shoes, brush the soles, and take out the insoles to dry them."

"Go!" Seeing that she was holding the mirror tightly, Xia Zhizhi urged her sharply, "Is it possible that I can't order you around?"

If you don't move, I'm going to take action.

Thinking about how Xia Zhizhi had been humble and submissive with them a few days ago, was it because she was kind? Or was it because she had not activated her superpowers and could not defeat them, so she had no choice but to endure the hardships.

At this moment, she is singing like a liberated peasant slave. If she doesn't obey, she will show them what a female martial arts star is every minute.

Xia Lanlan pouted and went out with her shoes, and came back with a pair of clean shoes.

Xia Zhizhi was lying on the bed with her legs crossed. She glanced at her and said, "Not bad. You cleaned it very well. It's much better than that idiot Xia Fangfang. Go out and close the door for me."

Xia Lanlan took the mirror on her desk and looked at herself again, then put it down reluctantly and went out happily to show herself.

At dinner time, Li Dongmei gave her a bowl as usual. She frowned and said, "Give me another spoonful. This is not enough for me."

"This is so much and it's not enough for you to eat..." Li Dongmei felt like she had lost her temper.

Xia Zhizhi pointed her finger and said, "I'm still growing, so I have to eat more. Hurry up and give me another spoonful. I've been running all day and I'm so tired and thin!"

Li Dongmei took a deep breath and added another spoonful of rice for her. She scooped the rice with great force and pressed the shovel hard on her bowl, as if she wanted to hit it on the head with the bowl.

Everyone at the dinner table noticed the changes in Xia Lanlan. Li Dongmei still loved her in her heart. Although she was not as good as her own eldest son, she was naturally happy to see that she knew how to dress up and was getting prettier. She smiled her first sincere smile in the past few days: "Lanlan is getting more and more skillful. She will become a beautiful girl after dressing up."

Xia Ruhai nodded affirmatively: "You did it yourself? It's better than before. You should dress like this from now on."

Xia Jianguo said perfunctorily: "It's OK."

The foundation is there. With a little tidying up, it can only be said to be a little better than before, but it is still far from being good-looking. Parents have filters when they look at their children, but brothers and sisters do not have such filters.

Xia Lanlan smiled shyly and glanced at Xia Zhizhi: "Zhizhi did it for me."

Xia Zhizhi finished her meal and threw down her bowl and chopsticks: "Lanlan is not a child anymore. She can't stay at home all the time if she doesn't study. If people get out, they will think she is a blind vagrant. As her elder sister, I have to teach her how to dress and how to do housework. It will be easier for her to get married in the future."

"You are a good one." Li Dongmei curled her lips.

"Of course not. I am always thinking about our family, but I won't say it. I will do my best to think about and do what I should think about." Xia Zhizhi wiped her mouth and went back to the house.

These days, Li Dongmei has been doing all the housework at home. Even a workhorse wouldn't dare to use her like that. Xia Zhizhi was right. It was time for Xia Lanlan and Xia Fangfang to learn from her. She said, "Lanlan, wash the dishes and sweep the floor. Fangfang, go to the bathroom and wash your clothes."

The two were not very happy about it, but Li Dongmei hardened her heart and had to accept it even though she was not happy about it. She was willing to serve her son and her husband, but not her daughter.

Li Dongmei was used to her sons, but there was a huge gap between her two daughters. She didn't let them do anything before because Xia Zhizhi had taken care of almost all the housework at home since she was 6 years old. They were both waiting to be served since they were born.

The two reluctantly went to wash the dishes and clothes.

Xia Zhizhi naturally went back to the space to have a snack. After awakening her special powers, her body's daily consumption increased. What could a bowl of rice do? It was not enough for her to eat. Fortunately, she had her own space, otherwise she would have bankrupted the whole family just by eating.

I stewed a chicken without hesitation, put in some ginseng that I had grown in the kitchen to nourish myself, stir-fried some small vegetables, cut a plate of the brined vegetables that I had prepared earlier, and ate them all with a big bowl of rice.

After eating and drinking enough, I touched my bulging belly and sighed, people still need to eat meat to satisfy their hunger!
