Chapter 17: Chapter 17 Why is My Sister so Kind

Chapter 17 -17 Why is My Sister so Kind

The group pet felt very lost. In the past, his mother wouldn’t be like this; she would always grab her hand and walk her home, then make her delicious food.

But this time, it was…

She looked towards Bai Zhi and Ye Xiu. Ye Xiu was holding Bai Zhi’s hand, but Bai Zhi seemed reluctant and resistant, even though she didn’t shake off Ye Xiu’s hand, her body was somewhat stiff.

Sister, you really don’t know how blessed you are.

She wanted to be held by her mother like that too! Bai Yu sensed the group pet’s loss and patted her head affectionately as he gazed at her.

“Sister, Mom is just concerned because she got hurt. You are still the one she loves the most!”

After hearing this, the group pet smiled sheepishly.

She stuck her tongue out at Bai Yu,

“Brother, did you notice? Am I being too much, feeling envious of Sister? Can you please not tell Mom? I’m afraid she would start to dislike me.

I’ve only just found a family, and I don’t want to lose you all!”

The group pet hung her head, seemingly reminded of something distressful, then the next second she looked up at Bai Yu, her defiance tinged with sorrow.

What a fool!

Bai Yu held her hand.

“My hand is here for you, sister. I will always look out for you,”

For a lifetime!

Bai Ye looked at how close the two were and quickly ran over, grabbing the group pet’s other hand.

“And me, and me, Sister, I am your brother too, and I will also look out for you, for a lifetime!”

The group pet, deeply touched by the seriousness and resolution in their eyes, nodded vigorously.

“Brother, I will also look out for you both!”

As the sun set, the shadows of the three children stretched long and far. Many years later, they would still remember this day, the promises they made to each other!

Bai Zhi looked back unintentionally and noticed the three of them. The group pet indeed,

At that moment, she could feel his sense of loss too. Loss?

She’s unhappy just because someone is holding her girl? Hah…

“Xingxing, be more careful, okay? Does it hurt? Shall Mom take you to get it checked out tomorrow?”

Ye Xiu, looking at the nearly set sun, spoke without much worry, as she had always noticed how much Grandpa doted on Xingxing.

“Mmm.”

Bai Zhi wouldn’t refuse, because, after all, she needed them to see her wound, didn’t she?

Otherwise, with a simple touch of lips, the injury could be trivialized, becoming evidence of her overreacting!

She wasn’t looking for trouble, but the sacrifices and grievances of the original owner needed to be acknowledged, didn’t they?

Because those were the hardships and chores that the original owner endured. Why shouldn’t they be recognized by them?

Bai Zhi obediently let Ye Xiu lead her back home.

As soon as they entered, Ye Xiu frowned at the mess—really too chaotic.

It wasn’t that it was especially dirty, but compared to the organized state it used to be in when she returned, now the fish mint was just carelessly placed under the window.

The chicken coop and pigpen smelled particularly foul, seemingly neglected for a long while. The kitchen was even more of a mess. Ye Xiu furrowed her brow, just about to comment on how untidy the house was.

Usually, when she returned, everything was neatly arranged and she didn’t need to worry. This summer, she had not come back because she was tutoring fifth graders.

But even when she hadn’t returned before, the house was well managed.

What was going on? Bai Yu and Bai Ye didn’t seem like the type to shirk their duties—whenever she returned, they were incredibly hardworking.

Indeed, every time Ye Xiu came back, they would help, making it appear as if they all managed the house together. But in reality?

Bai Zhi found it a bit unbearable too. After all, the pigsty needed to be washed down daily. She didn’t need to check to know that certainly hadn’t been done;

otherwise, the smell wouldn’t come in wafts with the wind. Bai Zhi seated herself obediently in a chair, figuring, as the invalid, no one would have anything to say about it!

Ye Xiu clearly thought the same. Xingxing looked pale as if a gust of wind could blow her away. When had Xingxing become so thin?

As her mother, she truly felt like a failure.

The group pet and Bai Yu went into the kitchen to help, and Ye Xiu rolled up her sleeves, preparing to get down to serious business. First, she boiled water to wash all the dishes; after that, she planned to start cooking potato and pork stew.

She had bought three pounds of meat, along with some potatoes, ready to make a big pot of stew.

“Bai Ye, go call Grandpa. Tell him we’re eating at home today, okay?”

Although Ye Xiu didn’t return often, she was definitely a good daughter-in-law.

Whenever she did return, she’d always prepare wine for Bai Dan and call him to join them for any delicious food she made. Everyone said that Ye Xiu was a wonderful daughter-in-law.

But, there was a slight problem; she wasn’t much for housekeeping!

However, at that time, earning money was the priority, and people understood that—after all, a teacher’s job was a stable “iron rice bowl”!

“I got it!”

Bai Ye ran off, throwing a fierce glower at Bai Zhi in the yard—their feud was well and truly set.

In the kitchen, the group pet helped wash the vegetables, Bai Yu took care of the fire, and Ye Xiu washed the dishes, with a rather harmonious atmosphere prevailing.

Suddenly, the group pet tugged Ye Xiu’s clothes, looking quite distraught with her eyes bright red, as if she was incredibly upset.

“What’s wrong, Xixi?”

Ye Xiu was puzzled and quickly wiped her hands with a cloth before taking the group pet’s small hand and asking with concern,

“Mom, I’m sorry, it’s my fault that sister got hurt…”

The group pet hung her head, unable to continue, and couldn’t bear to look into Ye Xiu’s eyes, afraid of seeing disappointment and dislike…

Her little hand clung tightly to her clothes, showing her inner turmoil and fear.

Ye Xiu sighed and was about to speak when Bai Yu took the lead.

“It’s not Mom, it’s got nothing to do with Xixi. It was Bai Zhi, she said Xixi was a child nobody wanted. She was too harsh and Bai Ye started to argue with her, then she fell and hit her head on a rock…”

Bai Yu spoke slowly, without any rush, as if he was telling the truth.

After listening, Ye Xiu just furrowed her brows and finally took the group pet’s small hand,

“Xixi, is what brother said true?”

For Ye Xiu, she actually trusted each of her children—while Xingxing sometimes went too far, and she’d seen her glaring at Xixi the last couple of times she was home, but how could Xingxing have truly said something so over the line?

Xixi raised her head, her eyes brimming with tears, which quickly fell. She hastily wiped them away, revealing a slight smile.

She felt that, even though her sister had hurt her, she couldn’t speak ill of her,

“No, Mom, sister didn’t say that, it’s just a misunderstanding by brother. Sister and I are still on good terms!”

Hearing the group pet’s words, the usually composed Bai Yu could no longer sit still.

How could his sister be so kind, clearly it was Bai Zhi’s fault!
