Throw Them Both Out
“Old Lu, Old Lu! Quick, quick, quick!”
Lu Zhi was washing the dishes when he heard this; he thought something had happened and hurried over.
“Stop, stop. Don’t go out, don’t startle the children. Look, our Little Darling took the initiative and let our daughter touch him!”
Lu Zhi could not help his curiosity, and smiled happily. “Our Little Darling must like Little Ning very much.”
“Yes.”
As the two of them were talking, some noises came from the back; in a moment Lu Qing walked out. He pulled down his sleeves and walked to the door. “I have work to do. I’ll leave first, won’t be back tonight.”
After changing his shoes, he opened the door and left.
Shen Yunci was so angry she was practically fuming. She snorted. “If you’ll be like this, then you’d better not come back. I’ll rather you not give my precious daughter that attitude!”
Lu Zhi rushed to assuage her. “Don’t be angry, our eldest son is very close to An’an. Having watched An’an grow up, it’s normal for him not to be able to accept it so quickly.”
Shen Yunci dragged him into the kitchen and said in a low voice, “It’s not like you don’t know what she said and did when she left! I wanted to tell our eldest son just what that sister he’s been with for so many years is actually like, but you wouldn’t let me say it! Look how it’s turned out—my real daughter, being forced to suffer because of her real brother.”
Lu Zhi patted her shoulder to calm her down.
When Lù Yue’an left, Shen Yunci was so beside herself she had to be sent to the hospital; the two of them were so utterly disappointed in her.
“Even if we tell him, he won’t believe us. When he slowly comes to understand Little Ning and knows that his real sister has a good personality, he’ll get better. Little Ning and Qing’er both aren’t the type who like to talk, so when the time comes we’ll mediate and quickly get them to know each other better. Don’t be angry, if Little Ning sees you like this, she might think it’s her fault.
“Look, isn’t our Little Darling getting along very well with Little Ning now? Qing’er will slowly treat Little Ning better under our Little Darling’s influence. Don’t be anxious, such things have to be done slowly.”
Shen Yunci used to be able to hold her temper. However, due to unforeseen circumstances they had to move here, and thereafter she became hot-tempered due to the influence of the people living around here. From time to time she would become extremely anxious, but she was also easy to coax.
“Didn’t you see that attitude of his? It’s as if the entire world owes him. Second Brother isn’t back yet, and I don’t know what he’ll be like when he does; if he ever gives us an attitude just like his big brother, I’ll have them both thrown out!”
Lu Zhi could not help but laugh. “Alright, alright, we’ll throw them out. Didn’t you want to give Lili a call?”
Lu Zhi changed the topic.
Only then did Shen Yunci remember.
“Right, right. I was so angry with that brat that I forgot.”
She took her phone and dialed the number. Lu Zhi smiled at her and turned to continue washing the dishes.
“Lili, when are you coming back?”
A woman’s gentle voice came from the other end. “I still need a few months; isn’t Little Ning going back today?”
Shen Yunci immediately nodded. “Yes, she’s back. She just had dinner and is talking to our Little Darling now, the two of them are getting along very well. To think that I was afraid our Little Darling wouldn’t like her.”
The other party chuckled. “Little Darling wouldn’t hate her, but he’s also a child who won’t take the initiative to get close to others. If he really likes Little Ning so much, Little Ning must be special.”
“But of course, your little sister is the best. It’s just that your big brother is behaving like a madman, when Little Ning hasn’t even arrived he’s already giving me an attitude; if Second Brother dares to be like his older brother when he comes back, I’ll pack them up and throw them both out…”
