Don’t they say that boys are closer to their mothers, while girls are closer to their fathers? Why are things the other way around here?
Wei Na heard her thoughts.
Just keep being jealous, Master. Anyway, why do I feel like this man is not staying here for the two children? Am I wrong?
“Do as you please.” An Jiuyue raised her hand to wipe her face, glancing at the roe deer on the ground before returning to the treehouse.
It’s not like I can stop them from developing their father-son relationship. I’ll be struck by lightning if I do! Forget it. Since they want to stay for a little, so be it.
Rong’er slid down from Qian Jiyun’s body and followed her. “Mother, I’ll help you start a fire.”
“Mother, I’ll wash the vegetables for you.” Zheng’er also went along.
Qian Jiyun’s arms were instantly empty.
When the mother and sons headed upstairs, Qian Yiyun leaned toward her brother and asked softly, “Sister Jiuyue wants to chase you away. Can we even stay here for long?”
“Rember this: Zheng’er and Rong’er are my sons. Do you understand?” Qian Jiyun glanced at his sister and reminded her.
“Why?”
I understand that he wants to reunite with my sister-in-law, but why does he want to treat the two little ones as his biological sons?
It’s not that she’s a second wife that he took to replace a dead wife. Yet, she already has two step-sons soon after their marriage. Won’t this hinder their relationship as husband and wife?
Why did my brother remind to keep this a secret repeatedly?
“Think about it yourself.” Qian Jiyun glanced coldly at his sister, turned around, and headed upstairs too.
“And gut that roe deer,” he instructed without looking back.
Qian Yiyun looked at the roe deer on the ground. She widened her eyes instantly and turned to look at his back.
“Huh?”
Is this still my brother? Did he really ask to do that?
She had gotten used to hardships after going through a lot with her brother over the past few years. However, she still wondered why she had to be the one to gut the animal now that her older brother and sister-in-law were around.
What is a younger sister? Is a younger sister ant to be exploited by her brother and sister-in-law?
“Big Brother, you should have let Yan Nuo stay!”
But she knew that would not be a good idea as there would not be enough bedrooms if Yan Nuo had stayed.
Her sister-in-law would definitely use that as an excuse to chase them away.
Hence, she had to do this alone.
Sigh… My life is so hard… Helping my brother woo my sister-in-law is not easy!
…
Inside the kitchen in the treehouse…
The two children were initially ready to help their mother in the kitchen but a couple of words from Qian Jiyun sent them running downstairs excitedly to watch Qian Yiyun gut the roe deer.
Only Qian Jiyun and An Jiuyue were left in the kitchen.
“I don’t have much to do here. Go and look after the children,” An Jiuyue instructed Qian Jiyun as if she was instructing Qian Yiyun.
Since he wanted to stay here for a while, he had to contribute and do sothing.
However, she felt a little awkward being in the sa room as him, especially since they were alone. She did not know how to interact with him.
She might as well assign him to watch over Xiao Lu and the other two.
“I…” Qian Jiyun had many things he wanted to tell An Jiuyue.
He wanted to explain why she was chased out of the house. He also wanted to explain his relationship with that woman in the house.
