Chapter 97 -97: This Melon is Guaranteed Genuine!

“Hey, elder brother, you came back so early today?”

Lu Xiaoting glanced at his sister and nodded, “Yeah, it hasn’t been too busy these past few days, so I came back earlier.”

Lu Xiaomei climbed up the kang and saw her elder nephew diligently and neatly doing his homework. She couldn’t resist giving his freshly shaved little bald head a rub.

“My elder nephew is really something; his handwriting is so neat and tidy, much better than your Little Aunt used to be.”

Susu immediately saw through her little niece’s intentions, but Xiao Yu’s little bald head was indeed very nice to touch.

Xiao Yu silently sighed in his heart. Little Aunt is really childish!!!

Susu nudged the man beside her with her elbow, directing him to get off the kang and fetch the fabric she had bought that morning.

“Xiaomei, I bought several types of fabric this morning. I was thinking of making two new outfits for everyone in the family so we can have a change of clothes.

Now that Bulaji skirts are in fashion, I thought of making you two skirts so you can be the most dazzling kid at school.”

Lu Xiaomei’s expression changed several times, covering her face; her sister-in-law was too funny, “the most dazzling kid at school” sounded hilarious.

“Sister-in-law, I reckon this Bulaji fabric might only be enough to make two outfits. Why don’t you wear them? I’ll choose another fabric.”

Upon hearing this, Susu immediately shook her head and gestured with her hands, “No, no, no, I don’t like Bulaji. I think it’s even less comfortable than wearing cotton.

I bought it especially for you, thinking of you wearing it to school to hang out and go shopping with classmates.”

Seeing that her sister-in-law genuinely disliked Bulaji, Lu Xiaomei then cheerfully looked over the Bulaji fabric back and forth, contemplating how to make it.

The commotion in the room was even heard by Aunt and Little Aunt outside, who were hanging up the urinal cloth and excitedly ran into the room.

Lu Xiaoting silently made space for his mother and Aunt as he watched the four women gather around the fabric, discussing how to use it.

Father and son exchanged glances, each continuing with their own business.

“Mom, shall I take it to the old tailor? It’d save trouble and be quicker.”

As soon as Susu spoke, it immediately drew objections from the other three.

Mrs. Lu, “We have the skills ourselves, why spend that unjust money?”

Lu Xiaogu, “Your Little Aunt and your mom are nearly as good as the old tailor when it comes to making clothes.”

Lu Xiaomei, “Sister-in-law, don’t worry about it. You spent money on the fabric; you shouldn’t have to spend more on making the clothes. Whatever ideas you have, just discuss them with mom, our mom and Little Aunt’s stitching is really good.”

Lu Xiaomei even gave a big thumbs up to her mother and Little Aunt.

Mrs. Lu glanced irritably at her daughter, “So it’s just me and your Little Aunt working, huh? Your sister-in-law spends money on fabric, and you just enjoy the benefits?”

“Look how good your sister-in-law is to you, thinking of what young people like when making clothes, especially buying you Bulaji. She didn’t even keep any for herself.

You better remember her kindness in the future; I’ll be the first to skin you if you’re ungrateful.”

Susu blinked, thinking to herself that it really isn’t that she didn’t want to wear it; she genuinely found it uncomfortable and unbreathable.

Lu Xiaomei pouted unhappily as she looked at her mother, “Mom, what are you saying? Am I that kind of person?”

“Besides, without my sister-in-law, I wouldn’t even have been able to get into college. How could I be so ungrateful? I really consider my sister-in-law an elder sister now.”

Lu Xiaoting, elder sister? What does that mean? Am I the brother-in-law now?

“Alright, alright, mom go cook. My sister-in-law will be hungry soon.”

Lu Xiaomei shooed her mother and Little Aunt off to cook, then turned her gaze to her second brother.

Lu Xiaoting frowned, “What’s up?”

“Second brother, why don’t you take a walk outside? I want to have a private chat with my sister-in-law.”

Lu Xiaoting, feeling resigned, could only grab Xiao Yu, who had just closed his book and was preparing to watch over his siblings, and they both went out into the courtyard.

Susu blinked curiously, those bright eyes sparkling, “Go on, what’s the private chat about? Come on, tell me.”

The spirit of gossip burned fiercely; seeing Lu Xiaomei stumbling over her words, Susu was incredibly curious, practically itching with impatience.

She urged, “Come on, come on, I promise to keep it a secret. I won’t reveal a single detail.”

Seeing the girl’s cheeks slowly blush with two patches of redness, and a growing tendency to redden even more.

Susu covered her mouth and exclaimed, “You couldn’t be in love, could you?”

The girl, her thoughts guessed, shyly covered her face, “Oh, sister-in-law, how did you know?”

Susu’s mouth twitched uncontrollably, thinking with your shy and blushing face, it would be hard not to notice!

“Look how red your face is, and that shy look on your face, anyone with eyes can see. Tell me about your little romance.”

Lu Xiaomei, with her burning cheeks, had just started to speak softly when she was interrupted by the voice of her mother from the main room.

“Xiaomei, come out here, help mother…”

“Ah~ Coming right away.”

Lu Xiaomei couldn’t focus on whispering with her sister-in-law and hurried out to help her mother with chores.

Mrs. Lu, who was chopping ribs, was startled by the sudden appearance of what she thought was a monkey’s butt, her hand trembling and almost cutting askew.

“Oh my goodness, where did this monkey’s butt come from, scaring your mother?”

Lu Xiaomei stamped her foot, “Mother~”

“What? Can’t I mention a monkey’s butt? What have you done wrong to have such a red face?”

Mrs. Lu eyed her daughter suspiciously, feeling that the girl must definitely be hiding something from the family.

“Mother, are you going to cook or not? Do you want to starve my sister-in-law?”

Lu Xiaomei rolled her eyes irritably, “My sister-in-law just gave you three big chubby grandsons, you dare—”

Lu Xiaomei had not finished speaking when she was slapped by her mother’s Iron Sand Palm, immediately causing her to grimace in pain.

“Quickly focus on your work. Stop babbling…”

Lu Xiaogu quickly pulled her grimacing niece to start kindling the fire.

Susu, hearing the noise in the main room, didn’t know whether to cry or laugh, anxiously staring at the doorway.

Knowing there was gossip but not knowing the details was truly frustrating, agonizingly frustrating.

However, even until bedtime, the aunt and sister-in-law found no opportunity to be alone and gossip.

The next day upon waking up, Susu heard from her mother-in-law that Xiaomei had already gone to school, and feeling bereft extended her hands in despair and shouted.

“No—”

“This child.”

Mrs. Lu shook her head, assuming the aunt and sister-in-law were just overly affectionate, and carried the granddaughters off to stroll in the yard.

The yard was filled with the crisp laughter of the three siblings.

For several days, Susu, with her spirit of gossip at its peak, still did not see Lu Xiaomei return home.

She sighed deeply, “Ah~ I am so upset~ This is not the outcome I wanted.”

That day on the way to the store by bike, Susu happened to meet an old farmer selling watermelons.

Her eyes lit up; she immediately bought three watermelons, and also got a sack from the old man.

A watermelon for the mealtime, the pickled food yard, and her own family each.

Since there was no “gossip” to indulge in, she decided to satisfy herself with a real melon.

“Hey, this watermelon is not bad, big and round, definitely sweet.” Mrs. Lu said as she took the large watermelon her daughter-in-law was holding and went to chill it with water.

“Yes! This melon is guaranteed fresh! Definitely delicious!”
