Su Xiaoya rolled her eyes. She acted very differently from how she had in front of Su Wen. Although she was still cute, she was far from being the meek, obedient little girl she had portrayed herself as earlier.

Despite being children of only five to six years, they were behaving like adults, furiously negotiating the terms of a contract. Su Qing’s eyes widened as she listened to their interaction while washing the clothes.

Little Sister Su: ‘.

Indeed, she was too dumb for words!

Little Sister Su’s silence was all Su Xiaoya needed to know that she had pinned the nail on the donkey.

With renewed hope, Su Xiaoya continued, whispering, “Other than Niuniu and

Zhuangzhuang, who else might you have forgotten?”

“What do you mean?” Little Sister Su frowned, looking confused.

“Aunty Sixth Sister, of course!” Haha… Who could be smarter than her, Su

Xiaoya? What would happen when Aunty Sixth Sister returned and snatched Aunty Su Wen’s favor from Little Sister Su? Wouldn’t Little Sister Su fall out of favor, then?

Little Sister Su could not suppress the shiver that ran down her spine as she parroted the words “Sixth Sister” over and over again.

How could she have forgotten about Sixth Sister? Hadn’t Big Sister said she would go and pick up Sixth Sister soon? Once Sixth Sister returned, her good life would evaporate into thin air.

Sixth Sister, that awful person, would bully her, snatch her pillow, steal her beloved hair tie, and even hog her eldest sister’s attention.

“Fine!” Although she did not want Su Xiaoya to steal her sister, Sixth Sister was still the greater of two evils.

Su Xiaoya smiled from the bottom of her heart.

“A wise choice! Don’t worry, Aunty Little Sister Su, I will make it up to you in the future. Let’s be friends. We’ll be best friends for life.

Su Xiaoya would never forget how Little Sister Su gave her those delicious steamed cakes when she felt her stomach rumbling from intense hunger. It reminded her of the days before her mother died.

“Humph! You’re not my best friend! My best friend is Xiaohua.”

Su Xiaoya was not angered by Little Sister Su mentioning Xiaohua, who had been sold. Instead, she nodded in agreement, appearing quite chipper. “That’s all right. I’ll still see you as my best friend and do my best to help you when you ask.”

Little Sister Su flushed in embarrassment. In a soft, stubborn voice, she said, “Who needs your help? Humph! Since we’re working together, I’ll make sure you’ll always get to eat delicious food in the future. Wait here; I’ll get some candy.”

Little Sister Su bolted to her room and retrieved her secret stash of rice candy her eldest sister had bought for her.

Su Qing watched the two girls happily chatting while sharing rice candy and reviewed the agreement she had overheard them making. Indeed, the whole family had changed.

Perhaps she had been too honest in the past.

To avoid being outdone by Xiaoya, she vowed to learn how to become a ‘disobedient’ girl.

The best place to start was to learn how to complain!

The atmosphere in the village chief’s house was tense. Grandma Gou Dan muttered an unending stream of curses, her expression locked in a menacing frown.

Li Youcai, the head of the women’s department in the village, Wang Chunyang, and the others were all present. They would have preferred to plug their ears with cotton wool rather than listen to Grandma Gou Dan’s foul mouth.

They knew that the Su sisters had fed Grandma Gou Dan chicken excrement. They did not think it was too much and relished in the old woman’s just desserts. Many in the village had long wished Grandma Gou Dan would face retribution, but they feared Grandma Gou Dan’s retaliation and chose to suck it up instead.

Her current litany of curses encouraged them to feed her more chicken excrement if only to keep her mouth shut.

Grandma Gou Dan swore worse than a sailor.

The more she cursed, the angrier she became. Even her daught whom she had forced to come with her, watched coldly from speaking up on her behalf. Grandma Gou Dan shot her an icy g] pretended not to see it.

Humph! Did she think she was stupid? Even Old Man Sun and couldn’t defeat Su Wen, so how could their family do it? Sun Dahe had just been beaten up. Although they did not find out anyone with an ounce of intelligence knew it had to be related How could there be such a coincidence in this world?

Grandma Gou Dan’s daughter-in-law did not want to stick her invite more trouble to their doorstep.. She might even offend tl she joined her mother-in -law in cursing Su Wen and her family!
