Chapter 140: The Cannon Fodder Sister Who Was Married Instead in Ancient Chinese Literature 20
The two of them immediately picked up the hairpin and rubbed it in their hands. It felt warm to the touch and was in excellent condition.
The most important thing is that this is the hairpin that Shushu personally selected for them.
As Shushu grew older, the couple always felt that the distance between them and their daughter and sister was getting farther and farther. Although they were biological father and daughter and siblings from the same mother, their relationship was not close, but became increasingly tense.
When Father Jiang thought of the past, his eyes became moist. He stood up suddenly, turned sideways, wiped his tears with his sleeve, then turned to look at Jiang Yueshu.
"Shushu, are you willing to pin your father's hair?"
Jiang Yueshu listened to the expectation and caution in Jiang's father's words, and her eyes became hot and tears welled up in her eyes uncontrollably.
She said nothing, but stood up, took the hairpin from her father's hand, and solemnly inserted it into her father's hair along his slightly bent back.
After the insertion, Jiang Yueshu looked at her father with sparkling eyes.
"Father, it suits you very well."
Father Jiang's nose felt sore and tears were about to come out. He turned quickly and went into the inner room, leaving only the words "Father, go and take a look."
Jiang Yueshu smiled slightly and was about to sit back, but when she turned around, she saw her brother looking at her eagerly.
"Sister, can you help your brother with a hairpin?"
Jiang Yueshu nodded, took the hairpin and inserted it into her brother's hair in the same way.
Jiang Yixiu felt his sister's gentle movements and completely lost his usual gentlemanly demeanor. With red eyes, he rushed to the inner room and gave the same reason as Jiang's father.
Jiang Yueshu looked at their backs with amusement. She didn't believe that they went to look in the mirror. They must have gone to wipe their tears.
Jiang Xinghui stared blankly at the three people who were so close to each other, and she felt even more lonely. Although they were a big family, she felt as if they were the one family.
And what about that hairpin, how could my mother allow such a thing to happen?
Jiang Xinghui only felt that the doubts in her heart were engulfing her layer by layer.
She looked back to where her mother usually sat, feeling a little uneasy.
It’s so late, why didn’t my mother come? And why didn’t she call anyone to tell her?
After a while, Jiang's father and Jiang Yixiu came out one after another.
Their faces were still slightly red, and their movements seemed a little awkward.
"Shushu is so thoughtful. It's rare that you still remember your father and brother when you go out for a walk. You really are your father's good daughter." As soon as they sat down, Jiang's father spoke with a smile.
"Your brother and I haven't thought of preparing anything for you yet. We'll make it up to you later."
Jiang Yixiu also laughed and agreed.
Jiang Xinghui, who lowered her head, was instantly hurt by these words. Her father was clearly talking to Jiang Yueshu, but she inexplicably felt that he was talking about her.
As her father's daughter and her brother's sister, she had never prepared gifts for either of them.
Jiang Xinghui pursed his lips and remained silent, not daring to meet their gazes.
"Thank you, father and brother." Jiang Yueshu stood up and saluted.
Jiang Xinghui, who had his head lowered, did not notice that Jiang Yueshu's etiquette was extremely standard.
Father Jiang and the other man were even happier to see this, and thought to themselves that it was indeed a good idea to let Shushu learn rules and etiquette from Nanny Sun.
The four of them then began to eat. At one table, three of them were in a very good mood while Jiang Xinghui was the only one eating with a mixed and depressed mood.
In less than a quarter of an hour, Song Sancai stepped forward to report to Jiang's father.
"Master, the lady is here."
Father Jiang nodded and continued eating.
After a moment, Yunxi walked in slowly.
As soon as they approached them, a strange smell came over.
Father Jiang sensed something was wrong and immediately stopped Yunxi from moving forward.
"Stop, step back."
When Yunxi stood at the door, Jiang's father stopped her.
"What's that smell on you? Wash your hands before eating."
Yunxi looked embarrassed and explained helplessly.
"General, I came here to tell you that I am not feeling well today and will not have dinner tonight."
Yunxi had just returned home and smelled very strong, so he hurried over to tell everyone after taking a bath.
One reason was that she didn't want to give Jiang's father a handle, and the other was that she was afraid that her daughter would worry.
"It's up to you." Father Jiang said indifferently.
Yunxi then bowed and left. She now felt her stomach hurting again.
Thinking of this, she glared at Jiang Yueshu who was eating without leaving a trace. It was all because of this damn girl. What kind of laxative did she buy? She had been having diarrhea for almost the whole afternoon and was almost exhausted.
Jiang Yueshu seemed to realize something and smiled and said, "Aunt, that's right. For the sake of your health, you still have to control your appetite."
Yunxi smiled back in panic and immediately turned and left.
She's going to have a lot of fun tonight.
The next day at breakfast, as soon as the four of them arrived, they saw Yunxi, who looked tired and had two big dark circles under his eyes.
Jiang Yueshu looked at her listless appearance and felt that the weather had improved today.
Although there was no sun and it was gloomy, it didn't rain!
Father Jiang frowned slightly when Yunxi just came in.
As Yunxi got closer, he felt that the smell was getting closer and closer, like a shadow.
"Ms. Yun, do you remember what I said last night? The whole family is having dinner here. If you smell too bad, you can eat by yourself!"
These words were so merciless that Yunxi felt extremely embarrassed both mentally and facially.
There were still some servants and maids around the yard. Although they all looked straight ahead and seemed not to hear anything, Yun Xi always felt that they were trying hard to hold back their laughter.
"it is good."
After leaving a word, Yunxi was supported by Hong Luo and left Songbaiyuan.
For two consecutive days, Yunxi did not eat with others.
On the third day, Yunxi sat down as usual. Jiang Yueshu looked at the red on her neck and guessed that she must have taken a lot of baths in the past few days.
While Yunxi was eating, he was thinking about something.
The last time she went shopping with Jiang Yueshu, it was not to apologize, but she arranged a scene for Jiang Yueshu where the hero saved the beauty.
The hateful thing was that Jiang Yueshu's actions disrupted her plans time and time again. Not only did she lose money, but she was also tormented for two or three days.
There is less than half a month left until the wedding date. If she doesn't act immediately, her plan of marrying in a substitute's place will be in vain.
And this time, she must be prepared to have the best of both worlds.
If Jiang Yueshu could obediently follow her wishes and become a part of the hero saving the beauty, then she wouldn't have to consider anything else.
But these days, Jiang Yueshu's confusing behavior has indeed caused her plans to go wrong again and again, so she must make other preparations.
If being a hero to save the beauty doesn't work, then let's make it a done deal!
There was an unknown light in Yunxi's eyes, waiting for the opportunity to come.
