With the current mosquito nets, one could not even see the inside from the outside. Therefore, Su Wen was not used to it.
However, it was useless to light the mosquito incense. She had to consider hanging the mosquito net again.
“Is Big sister up yet?” Su Qing’s voice sounded from outside.
“I’m up.” Su Wen quickly changed her clothes and got out of bed. She combed her hair with a comb and opened the door to leave.
It had drizzled all night yesterday, and the sky was especially blue this morning. The blue sky looked like it was washed, and the air was fresh, making people feel happy. Su Qing was wearing her newly made clothes, standing at the door and looking at her.
“Eh? Big sister, why does your mouth look a little swollen?”
“A mosquito bite.”
“There are a lot of mosquitoes in summer. Why don’t you hang the mosquito net? Su Xiu and I both used mosquito nets, so there weren’t any mosquitoes at night. Mosquito repellent incense was expensive, and it was hard to say if it would have any effect.”
Su Qing nodded in agreement. A few years later, when she got married, she thought of her Big sister’s answer at that time. She felt that she was simply too stupid and naive at that time.
“Alright, I’m going to the county town today to see if there’s anyone selling new mosquito nets.” Su Wen stood in the courtyard brushing her teeth. After brushing her teeth, she asked, “How is Su Xiu?”
“She’s pretty good. I washed the pots and bowls last night. She hid in the kitchen and ate a bowl of rice alone.” Su Qing could not help but snicker, “She is still busy making steamed cake!”
As expected, the air was filled with a sweet fragrance.
As they were talking, Su Xiu poked her body out of the kitchen and shouted, “Big sister, what do you want to eat for breakfast? Do you want to try what I made?”
As soon as she finished speaking, Sixth sister and little sister Su each held a piece of steamed cake and took small bites like kittens. They ate it with great care. They were afraid that there would be nothing left if they ate too quickly. This was especially true for Sixth sister. Before she left, they ran out of cornmeal at home.
Now that she was back, she could actually eat the steamed cake that she had never dared to imagine before.
Sigh! When she was in town, if the boy said that he could have steamed cake every day, she might really agree to be his bride when she grew up. At the thought of this, Sixth sister rolled her eyes at little sister Su unhappily, and she became even angrier.
She was a servant girl in her aunt’s house, yet her little sister was living such a blissful life at home.
Would one not be angry?
She even took advantage of her absence to s.n.a.t.c.h half of her sister away. Did she think that she did not notice that everyone was treating her sister very well now. It was completely different from before. It must be her little sister who had come up with some scheme when she was not home.
So bad.
As a righteous person, she had to let her little sister know the meaning of the word ‘wrong’.
“No, I’ll just have a bowl of cornmeal porridge.” To Su Wen, the steamed cake was not attractive at all. If she were to eat steamed cake early in the morning, it would definitely not be as delicious as cornmeal porridge. Paired with salted vegetables, it was delicious and refreshing.
“Oh!” Su Xiu shrank back with a regretful expression.
Su Wen originally wanted to talk to Su Xiu about He Changming alone. From Su Xiu’s performance last night, this girl obviously knew. However, on second thought, she could not meddle too much. If Su Xiu was confused, she would definitely take the initiative to look for her.
All she had to do was wait.
“Big sister, are you going to the county town today?” Little sister Su looked at Sixth sister smugly and ran to Su Wen like a lackey. “Big sister, can you bring me there? I can help you buy things and help you.”
“I also want to go, I also want to go.” Sixth sister rushed over in an even more enthusiastic manner and even pushed her younger sister away..
