Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
Xia Wan said that she was fine, but Xia Chen still looked at her with heartache.
“Little sister, big brother feels that you’ve changed,” Xia Chen said.
Xia Chen’s words caused Xia Wan to panic. She secretly wondered if he had discovered something.
Xia Chen continued, “In the past, you were always so naive and arrogant in front of us. If you did something wrong, I would help you clean up. With Dad and Mom’s love, you don’t have to do anything at home. Even if our village values boys over girls, Wanwan, you’re treasure in our eyes.
“Your eyes are clean and clear, and all your emotions can be seen through at a glance.
“But ever since you fell into the water, I can’t see what you’re thinking.
“You said that you learned your medical skills from grandfather, but I know very well that his medical skills are not that superb. If you let him treat some minor illnesses and disasters, it’s fine, but grandfather is definitely not as good as you when it comes to surgery.
“Although I don’t know what you’ve experienced that made you grow up in an instant, I know that you love us. You’re trying very hard to treat us well, as if you’re making up for something.”
Xia Wan’s heart trembled when she heard that. She suddenly had a feeling that her brother knew everything.
Perhaps this was the closest family member. They could feel the subtle changes in you.
Xia Wan lowered her head. “Brother, I was insensible before, but from now on, as long as I’m alive, I’ll definitely protect my family.”
Xia Chen smiled. “Silly girl, as long as you’re fine, we’ll be at ease.”
Xia Wan returned to her room and studied for another hour. Perhaps the meal she had with Xia Chen reminded her of her family’s tragic death in her previous life. She studied even more energetically.
Their family could still live in peace only because she had ruined Xia Ru and Lu Lin’s marriage. However, Xia Ru was now working outside. Without Lu Lin, she might not have met other men.
Based on Xia Ru’s personality, if she achieved great things, she would definitely not let go of those who had bullied her in the past.
Lu Lin would not let this go. Now that Old Master Lu was still in control of the Lu family; he might not dare to do anything. However, if Old Master Lu passed away, he would be unable to tolerate it.
Thinking of this, Xia Wan felt that the burden on her shoulders became heavier.
The next morning, Yan Han said to everyone, “The three of you are still at the age of studying, and there aren’t many people who buy clothes now, so your father and I have decided that from now on, one of the three of you will help sell clothes every day. Your father will be the only one to keep an eye on the renovation of the shop.”
Regarding Yan Han’s suggestion, the three of them felt that it was quite reasonable, so they unanimously agreed.
Xia Chen immediately said, “Then let’s go by age. I’ll go first today.”
Xia Wan and the other two took turns accompanying Yan Han to sell clothes for the next three days. Xia Hai was also making rapid progress with the renovation of the store. Manager Zhang Cheng was also very worried about the results of the store’s renovation, so he would come over from time to time to take a look.
Today, someone suddenly knocked on the villa’s door. Xia Wan came to the door and saw that it was Liu Hua standing outside. She immediately opened the door and looked a little surprised. “Liu Hua, why did you suddenly come over? Didn’t you tell me before? Come in and sit.”
Liu Hua held something tightly wrapped in red silk in her arms. Her eyes could not hide the excitement.
“Wanwan, let me tell you. When I went to the mountain yesterday, I originally wanted to see if I could give you some herbs and then send them over. You might be able to use them. Ultimately, I seem to have dug up the legendary Lingzhi! ”
Xia Wan’s eyes lit up when she heard that. “If it’s an aged lingzhi, it’s very expensive now. Our Liu Hua can also make a fortune.”
A shy smile appeared on Liu Hua’s face. “Wanwan, don’t tease me. I don’t want to get rich. I’m not that ambitious. I just thought that selling it should be enough for my tuition fees and living expenses this year if it’s really a lingzhi.
That way, my dad won’t have to work so hard.”
Xia Wan nodded. “You’re still sensible..”
