Chapter 57 (2/2)

”Why did he come back before noon? Dare to be absent from work?” Su wennuan stood up in surprise, and Duan Xinqi also got up quickly. The little surprise and meditation on his face was immediately replaced by cramped fear.

Duan Tingxuan picked the curtain from the outside and came in. When he saw Duan Xinqi, he was stunned at first, and then Fang casually said, ”the second sister is coming?”

”Yes, i... I didn't mean to see...”

Duan Xinqi's nervous hand didn't know where to put it. He stammered to explain. Before he finished, he heard Su wennuan say, ”I asked my second sister to come and talk. Why did you come back so early? Does the officer care about this behavior of leaving early and absenteeism?”

”Ha ha, you are more worried than Lord Liu.” Duan Tingxuan smiled and frowned when he saw Duan Xinqi's nervous look. ”How can you shrink your head and tail in a girl's house? And the clothes on you? Aunt Lin doesn't know how to dress you up?”

Duan Xinqi's face turned pale in an instant. Su wennuan saw that it was going to be bad. He hurried over to hug the little girl and sneered at Duan Tingxuan: ”It's a shame for you to say such a thing. In this situation of the second sister, you are not responsible as a brother. You will only blame her and scare her. Don't worry, I have selected the material, and the people in the sewing room have measured her figure. I asked them to make two bright clothes for the second sister.”

Duan Tingxuan was stifled and wanted to refute Su wennuan's words, but looking at Duan Xinqi's fear, he couldn't say it, because he said, ”I'm just casual. I knew you were willing to worry about her, and I won't say anything.”

Duan Xinqi saw for the first time that someone dared to contradict this powerful brother, not to mention that his brother even gave in. For a time, curiosity overcame fear. He couldn't help looking at Duan Tingxuan. He saw that his brother stared at the snow cotton bean paste on the plate, looking shocked. He didn't seem to be as angry as usual. The little girl's curiosity was even more serious. The big brother of the secret way used to dislike his sister-in-law the most. Now how can he become so amiable here? It's unbelievable.

”I heard you took a plate of dim sum this morning. Who did you give it to?” Su wennuan saw Duan Tingxuan staring at the plate of dim sum. He knew his mind and quickly hinted. Sure enough, Duan Tingxuan knew that the tigress was reminding herself that she had taken food with her, so he didn't have his share of the dessert.

”Last time the fourth prince went to my place, he was just in time for me to have dessert. He ate two snow cotton bean paste and said it was delicious. He bothered me for several days. Didn't he ask for jewelry again? So I couldn't help it. I gave him the rest of last night this morning. When I took it, there was only one plate left in the cabinet. Where did you come out of?” (to be continued.)

PS: the second girl is a poor child. Well, I don't know why. She especially likes to write such a plot of helping others. Ha ha!! Mobile phone users looking for recommended tickets and monthly tickets please browse and read for a better reading experience.
