Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
Du Xiaoshuan would always bring food for his sister whenever he collected ingredients for the hotpot restaurants. Then Du Xiaoju would share her food with Li i, saying Du Xiaoshuan had brought enough for two of them to eat.
Li i no longer felt sleepy when she thought about that. She thought her sisters had already fallen asleep, but one of them suddenly spoke up, “Big Sister, it’s good that Xiaoshuan ca to help us fix our roof. Otherwise, it would have collapsed like before with such heavy snow, right?”
The family could not sleep if there were a blizzard in the past. It was freezing, and their brick bed would be cold because they had to use their firewood sparingly.
Now that Li i and Li Wei were earning money, they could afford to buy charcoal for their furnace and use more firewood to warm their brick beds.
They also had new cotton blankets to keep themselves warm.
Li Wei was twelve years old and worked at the embroidery shop, so she received a silver tael last month. She was overjoyed and only rembered running straight ho to give her money to Li i.
The whole family was thrilled that day and made dumplings to celebrate. The whole family enjoyed eating dumplings, especially at dumplings.
Li i felt much more relaxed now that one of her sisters could also earn money. Li i no longer had to bear the family’s burdens alone. She could relax a lot more in terms of ntality.
For so reason, Li i’s mood inexplicably improved after eting Du Xiaoshuan. She would feel happier after seeing him sotis, looking like she had seen the sun for the first ti.
However, she felt a little confused and guessed that Du Xiaoshuan only treated her as a sister.
Li i’s parents were no longer around, so she could only keep such things to herself. She did not know who to talk to about these things and could not fall asleep whenever she thought about it.
“Don’t worry, Li Wei.” She looked at her sister. “There won’t be any problems with the roof this winter. You can sleep well tonight.”
Li Wei turned to face Li i and said, “Big Sister, I think Xiaoshuan is quite good.”
Li i was stunned. “Why do you say that?”
“Well, obviously because he treats you well, Big Sister.” To Li Wei, no one cared as much about her and her siblings as Du Xiaoshuan, especially since her parents were no longer around.
Du Xiaoshuan would bring them food and care for them, even telling them to seek him out should they need help.
Li i was mature for her age and knew Du Xiaoshuan treated her sister differently. “Xiaoshuan is good to you, Big Sister.”
“Good to ?” Li i asked with a raised brow.
Li Wei looked at her sister’s confused expression and said excitedly, “Of course, he’s good to you. He buys things for us and even brings water for us. Xiaoshuan even helped to chop our firewood.
“He also told us to eat better and not to lift the water buckets ourselves. He’s strong, so he carries them for us.”
Li i was stunned when she heard all that. “So, our water tank is full, and there are firewood piles for us? Xiaoxhuan did all that?”
Li Wei noticed her sister’s shock and asked, “You didn’t know that?”
“N-No, I didn’t,” Li i replied with widened eyes, “I thought Second Sister, you, and Little Brother did all that.”
Her younger siblings always took care of the housework whenever she was busy. Therefore, she did not overthink it.
Li Wei said, “Xiaoshuan has been handling those things for us recently, Big Sister. Do you think he likes you?”
Li i’s face instantly turned red. “Y-You… What nonsense are you spewing?! Don’t say such things, child!”
She did not expect her younger sister to say such a thing. Fortunately, it was nightti, and Li Wei did not know that her eldest sister was blushing.
“I think it’s true, Big Sister. Otherwise, why would Xiaoshuan help us so much? Also, I saw how he looks at you. It was a look of love.”
Li Wei was no longer a little girl, even though she was only twelve. In addition, she worked in the embroidery shop, and the employees would discuss many things whenever they had free ti, so she learned a lot.
She suspected that Du Xiaoshuan liked her eldest sister. So workers in the embroidery shop also discussed it.
When Li i heard that, she stuttered, “H-How do you know what I-love ans?!”
Li Wei nodded. “Of course, I understand. You must treat him well if you like him back. Xiaoshuan doesn’t treat anyone else as well as you.
“Everyone notices it, even the neighbors. Soone even asked if you were going to propose to Xiaoshuan.”
Li i said conflictedly, “N-No, don’t speak of such nonsense. Xiaoshuan didn’t ntion that to .”
‘P-Perhaps he’s only helping my family out of pity. After all, I work with his sister and have a good relationship with her. That’s why Xiaoshuan is helping us.’
Li Wei gazed at her eldest sister’s conflicted expression and felt she had to help Li i.
‘I’ll ask Xiaoshuan about it next ti.’
She paused montarily and leaned closer to her eldest sister, “So tell , Big
Sister. Do you like Xiaoshuan?”
“I… How would I know?” Li i instinctively wanted to retort. However, she felt she could not say one thing and an another. Still, she did not know how it felt to like soone.
After so thought, Li Wei asked, “Do you feel happier whenever you see Xiaosuan? You see, he’s perfect and treats you well. I also heard that his sister and mother are good people.”
Li Wei and Du Xiaoju were of the sa age. They had much to discuss whenever they t. Therefore, Li i also liked Du Xiaoju very much.
Li i looked at her younger sister’s serious expression. She knew Li Wei had to beco more mature since their parents had passed away early. Li Wei would oversee the house inside and out while caring for their other two siblings whenever Li i worked.
However, since Li Wei had also started working, only their younger siblings stayed ho to do the housework. Moreover, their neighbors were kind and would co over to help if anything happened.
Still, Li i did not want to trouble others constantly.
“You must be honest, Big Sister. Previously, we feared you would find a husband that wouldn’t care about us. But now, we want you to find soone who will treat you well.”
Since Li i and Li Wei worked for Su Binglan, they earned good money.
Therefore, many people went to propose to Li i. No one minded that she still had younger siblings to care for.
However, she tactfully rejected them because her younger siblings were still young.
After pondering, Li Wei asked, “Besides, didn’t Xiaoshuan settle down here recently? He also bought land in our village, so you two can be together in the future if you want. The house he plans to build will just be a row away from us.”
Li i finally understood what her younger sister ant.. “Sister, who taught you these things?”
