Joyful Motherhood in a Rural Family

Chapter 302: Recognizing Relatives Translator: 549690339

Madam Gan Senior’s words were filled with indescribable meanings.

Liu Sisi buried her head deep and her drooping eyelashes concealed the thoughts in her eyes.

“That’s good. Our Gan Family is not a common household. When the opportunity arises, I, the old, will arrange for you to go out and see the world.”

Madam Gan Senior nodded in satisfaction and ordered the old imperial nanny by her side. “Nanny Qin, hurry and pack these jewelry for Elder Sister, don’t miss anything.”

“Yes, Old Madam.” Nanny Qin hurriedly responded.

“Grandmother! Grandmother! I heard that our teacher is now Ruo Ruo’s sister?”

Gan Miaoruo rushed in from outside, her voice coming in ahead of her person!

“Look at you, always in such a hurry, where are your manners? Hurry and come in to greet your adoptive sister! From now on, you two sisters must support each other. Understand?”

Old Madam Gan shook her head helplessly, obviously finding Gan Miaoruo’s impulsive personality hard to control.

She is now Ruo Ruo’s sister!

In just a moment, she had transformed into a miss from an official family. Although only an adopted daughter, this change was overwhelming!

Liu Sisi’s heart pounded and she laughed in a low voice, “Ruo Ruo, from now on, I’ll depend on you.”

“Oh! My…Sister, let’s go! Come to Ruo Ruo’s room to play. Let’s go!” Saying this, Gan Miaoruo pulled Liu Sisi towards her room.

“But…”

Liu Sisi quickly looked back at Old Madam Gan.

The Old Madam showed a face of indulgence: “Go! Go, today is a good day. Grandmother allows you to have a good time. But if you fail the class tomorrow, you’ll be grounded. Listen closely.”

“Ah? Really?” Gan Miaoruo wailed.

But once they were out of Old Madam’s courtyard, she revived instantly: “Come! My…oops, Sister, let’s go to my courtyard to play. Just now, my Dad sent over some Palace Lanterns. They are so beautiful! Come and play.”

Gan Miaoruo grinned with delight, eyebrows disappearing into her eyes.

“Palace Lanterns? That’s too…”

Liu Sisi felt a bit embarrassed. She was already a mother of two children and here she was, playing with palace lanterns, like a young girl. Isn’t that too much?

“Let’s go! When night falls, we’ll light up the palace lanterns. Trust me, it’ll look beautiful!”

Like most little girls, Gan Miaoruo loved beautiful things.

“Ruo Ruo, I can’t play with you anymore.”

Liu Sisi quickly stopped her: “Ruo Ruo, it is getting late today. If we delay further, we will have to walk back in the dark. Can we talk about it next time I come?”

“Ah—Is that so?”

Gan Miaoruo’s face was full of disappointment, but she had no choice: “Okay! But I still have some Tianshan snow lotus seeds back home, you can take some with you.”

Liu Sisi had a lot on her mind today and she did not deliberately consider the other’s feelings. She also did not refuse Ruo Ruo’s kindness.

As she bid farewell and walked out of the Gan Mansion, she realised that her back was drenched in this cold weather! A wild storm spread under Liu Sisi’s eyes.

Would she ever get a chance to use these pieces of jewelry?

Considering the various dazzling and hard-to-part-with jewelry pieces that Madam Gan Senior had previously chosen for her, it was remarkable!

If the other party truly intended to adopt her as their granddaughter, following the current customs, they should have presented her with immovable assets like farmland.

But instead, they only presented her with jewelry, which made her feel uncomfortable, as if sitting on pins and needles.

What could Madam Gan Senior be planning on?

Liu Sisi returned home to the Di family, still not figuring out her current situation.

The stables were completely empty – Di Yelei had not yet returned. On the contrary, inside Second Sister’s room, laughter could be heard from time to time.

She hurriedly packed away the gifts she had brought back, still feeling uneasy about having such priceless items in her possession.

On entering the room where the laughter was coming from, she saw that Second Sister was leaning against the head of the bed, laughing. To her surprise, Ms. Xin and YingEr were also in the room, all laughing merrily.

In particular, YingEr was listening to the conversation between the two women with great interest, her hand supporting her chin.

Seeing Liu Sisi enter, YingEr quickly waved at her, “Mom, Young Aunt is telling us a story, come listen too!”

Liu Sisi had many worries and was in no mood for stories, but she sat down anyway and watched them with a bemused expression. “So, you’re telling a story. What is the story about?”

Hearing that Liu Sisi was interested in the story, Ms. Xin was delighted. “It’s nothing much, I am just telling the story of ‘Drawing the Skin’, a tale from the civilian world. Let me begin…”

Ms. Xin narrated the story eloquently, quickly captivating everyone’s attention.

Despite having problems of her own, Liu Sisi forced herself to remain seated for a while before using cooking as an excuse to leave the room. “You all carry on, I’ll go to the kitchen first.”

She first went to the fireplace to check on Ah-Huang, who was still lazing around at the same spot.

She then turned to feed the chickens in the chicken coop, as well as the wild rabbit. After that, she began cooking.

When the aroma of the food began to fill the kitchen, Ms. Xin came forward to bid her farewell.

“Third Sister-in-law! When will you start repairing your roof? When you are busy doing that, I’ll have Di Ah-Bao come over and help. He should lend a helping hand too.”

Letting Di Ah-Bao help? Liu Sisi dared not hope for it!

However, thinking of Ms. Xin’s talents, she changed her mind and quickly said with a smile, “We will surely fix it in the next few days. As for the specific day of starting the work, it’s up to Ye Lei.”

“Of course, Third Brother is so capable, it’s just that he’s too busy now. They say, through thick and thin, we stick together. We can’t let these brothers grow apart.” Ms. Xin said with a double meaning.

“At the moment, it’s natural. The broken bone is also connected with tendons.”

Liu Sisi admired in her heart that Ms. Xin was indeed a great speaker, and she was a product of the pleasure quarters. While thinking this, an idea suddenly crossed her mind.

“By the way, sister-in-law, I have a favor to ask of you and I hope you can help.”

As she spoke, she respectfully bowed to Ms. Xin.

The formality of Liu Sisi shocked Ms. Xin, who quickly moved aside to avoid her bow. “Third Sister-in-law, don’t scare me like this. If you really have something, just say it directly. I will definitely help as long as I, Ms. Xin, can do it.”

There was a look of embarrassment on Liu Sisi’s face, but she still braced herself and spoke.

“Don’t worry, you will definitely be able to help with this!”

“Oh? Then tell me, what do you need my help with?” Ms. Xin was also intrigued by Liu Sisi.

Liu Sisi leaned into Ms. Xin’s ear and spoke in a low voice, “Here’s the thing…”
