Chapter 212: Mother
Xie Xi was young, so when the pair of hands dragged her neck, the necklace fell into their hands easily.
“Mine!” Xie Xi glared in an upset manner, looking angry.
“Sister Xi’er, you’re so petty. I won’t take it. I just want to take a look at it,” Xie Chun mumbled at Xie Xi and put it on immediately.
She turned around and showed it off to Xie Zhu. “How is it? Is it nice? Do I look fairer in it?”
Xie Zhu glanced in envy and then looked at Xie Xi’s hands. She grabbed her hand immediately and saw the bangles on her wrist. She then removed them without hesitation and put them onto her own wrist in the blink of an eye.
Xie Zhu was the youngest daughter-in-law’s daughter. She was almost the same age as Xie Xi, so she could wear the bangles forcefully.
Xie Qiao stood up and walked over.
Xie Qiao suddenly said while smiling, “Are you guys having fun?”
She had not spoken since coming in. Now that she spoke out of the blue, Xie Chun and Xie Zhu were stunned. They turned their heads to look, not feeling guilty upon seeing that it was Xie Qiao.
They even scrutinized Xie Qiao.
“Big Sister, the bell on your wrist is pretty,” said Xie Chun.
In reality, the bell was ordinary and plain-looking, with nothing special about it. Although it had no pretty patterns on it, it was sparkling. It seemed to be real gold. It must be heavy!
Xie Qiao shook her wrist and smiled. “Do you want it?”
Xie Chun smiled and said immediately, “Big Sister, you’re giving it to me? You’re so generous!” She stepped forward innocently, almost grabbing Xie Qiao’s arm.
“You’re dark. The bell would look ugly on you.” Xie Qiao smiled and dragged the necklace from her neck. She was elegant and skilled as she said slowly, “I suppose you’re already 15 this year? This necklace is more suitable for a cute young lady. You’d look out of place if you were to wear this when you look like this. You’ll look like a monkey.”
Xie Chun’s face flushed when she heard that.
“What do you mean!?” snarled Xie Chun.
Xie Qiao put the necklace onto Xie Xi’s neck and glared at Xie Zhu. “Are you going to remove them yourself, or do I have to?”
Xie Zhu’s eyes turned red immediately. “Mother! Mother! Big Sister is a bully!”
The scream almost killed Xie Qiao, her eardrums on the verge of bursting.
Xie Qiao covered her chest immediately and coughed twice. She leaned toward Xie Xi and panted pitifully.
Xie Xi did not like thinking. She revealed a caring expression when she saw Xie Qiao like that.
Xie Zhu’s shriek attracted the three sisters-in-law, Ms. Jia, Ms. Lu, and Ms. Xin.
“What’s wrong, Zhu’er?” Ms. Xin asked immediately.
Xie Zhu said sadly, “Mother, Big Sister is a bully. We thought Xi’er’s accessories were pretty, so we wanted to try them on. S-She also said Sister Chun is ugly and asked me to remove them. She’s mean to us and looks down on us!”
Ms. Xin looked at Ms. Lu in a troubled manner. “Second sister-in-law, our family has dragged Second Brother down, but you can’t do that with the kids, right?”
Ms. Lu smiled awkwardly, “Xi’er, what did I tell you? You have many pretty accessories. If these sisters like them, give them to them. You can’t be petty, alright?”
She was the one who had picked those accessories for Xie Xi.
It was not for Xie Xi to look good but to show the old lady how good she was.
