Fu Jiujiu noticed a pair of eyes staring at her, so she turned to look back.

Tong Wanhui's brow furrowed tightly. This was the first time she had seen this girl from the Fu family. Before, when her mother mentioned her, she thought it was too far-fetched.

Only when a mother grows old does she appreciate everything.

The little girl wasn't afraid of her scrutiny, she even dared to meet her gaze directly. Her eyes were pure and flawless, her appearance beautiful. Currently, she was undoubtedly no worse than any noble lady.

Of course, she also knew that the words she had just said were heard by others, but she didn't think she had done anything wrong.

"Yue'er, this child looks quite good." Tong Wanhui was strict with herself and also strict with others.

In the county town, there were very few young ladies who she had boasted about as being worth a thousand pieces of gold.

Ginger Shuangyue also found it rare, "Jiujiu was able to catch her eye. How could she compare to Yingying?"

Tong Wanhu gently shook her head, "Yingying is not as good as her."

Everyone was surprised again. Miss Tong, the eldest daughter of the Tong family, is known for her discerning eye. She doesn't care about power or wealth, and she never speaks insincerely, so her praise is even more valuable.

Especially she was proud of her own daughter, but she never said that her daughter was worse than others.

Everyone couldn't help but look at Fu Jiujiu again, what was going on with this girl?

Jiang Shuangyue was also very puzzled, "Sister Hui, Chirp is still young and doesn't understand many things. How can he compare to Yingying?"

"Tong Wanhu shook her head. "Although my daughter Yingying is also outstanding, compared to your adopted daughter, she's still a bit inferior."

She didn't give Jiang Shuangyue a chance to speak, "I've heard about the Women's School."

Ginger Shuangyue instantly understood why this high-and-mighty Miss Tong would have such a high opinion of Chi-Chi.

It's amazing that such a little kid has such foresight.

"However, she is she, and others are others," Tong Wanhu said again.

Others didn't understand the meaning of this sentence, but Jiang Shuangyue did.

She lowered her head to look at the little dumpling, and gave a wry smile.

Fu Jiujiu thought for a moment, at this time, she still shouldn't speak for the fifth brother. This Miss Tong had a rather peculiar temper.

Xie Yinyin was a bit unhappy when her mother publicly said she wasn't as good as the little milk doll. But when she looked at the innocent smile of the little milk dumpling, and thought that she was Fu Wujin's sister, she swallowed her anger.

She raised an eyebrow and looked at the little dumpling, "Do you want to go play?"

Fu Jiujiu knew Xie Ying had something to tell her, so she nodded in agreement.

Old Madam Tong was very pleased. "Yingying, Chi-Chi is still young, you must look after your little sister well."

Xie Ying nodded, walked to the side of the little dumpling, and took her hand out.

"Thank you, sister, I want to go too." Han Liyun didn't want to hear these people talking in a language she didn't understand.

However, when she got excited, her buck teeth showed, which caused a burst of laughter.

Mrs. Han's face wasn't looking good, but everyone just couldn't help themselves.

Xie Ying, looking at Han Liyun who ran up to her, saw a reflection of her mother's personality in her. She was never one to compromise or bend over backwards; she simply disliked what she disliked.

"

“You… stay here, then.”

Han Liyun stood rooted to the spot, tears welling up in her eyes from the injustice. Mrs. Han's face darkened even further, as black as the bottom of a pot.

Although the Xie family doesn't have much power, Xie Ying's father, Xie Guangwen, is the headmaster of the academy, which isn't easy to offend. Besides, the Tong family has the ability.

Han Liyun was just teased and now being bluntly rejected, she couldn't hold back her face, and started crying directly.

Mrs. Tong took a deep breath and couldn't help it. Even her sister-in-law and her daughter had such tempers, so she didn't want to say much. Those they offended could only be appeased by themselves.

"Yun'er, come here to your aunt. The wind is strong outside, and you are so thin, it's better to stay inside." Madam Tong had already tried her best to give her a way out.

But Han Lvyun didn't understand, "No, they aren't afraid, and I'm not afraid either."

This time it was Mrs. Tong's turn to feel embarrassed. She really wanted to say, "The other person doesn't want to play with you, can't you see that?"

Let them go, don't you like King Kong? Let's play with King Kong.

Grandma Tong curled her lips but didn't say anything, unwilling to give up.

But even though King Kong is a bird, he has his own preferences. He likes to play with the little snowball. As for this uncommunicative, silly and ugly girl, he simply turned his back and used his tail to point at Han Lirui.

Han Liyun was even more heartbroken when a parrot refused to play with her.

"Why are you crying? Aren't you ashamed enough?" Mrs. Han sneered coldly, "Are you that shameless? Since they don't want to play with you, you still have to lick your face and send yourself over?"

Where would a mother curse her own daughter as cheap?

This statement was a bit heavy, and the ladies present felt a little awkward.

Mrs. Han was furious, but eventually another young lady stepped in to smooth things over and took Han Liyun away.

Mrs. Tong glanced at Tong Wanhui, hoping she would say something to ease the tension, but Tong Wanhui didn't think her daughter had done anything wrong.

If you don't like it, just say so. Why pretend?

Isn't it better to be genuine as a person?

"What you just heard, you are not allowed to tell your fifth brother," Xie Ying commanded.

Fu Jiujiao isn't stupid, of course she wouldn't say anything more, but she still wanted to speak up for her fifth brother, "My fifth brother is a good person."

Xie Yinyin pursed her lips, "Of course."

Xie Ying felt that Wu Ge was good, so it was fine. Fu Jiujiu also noticed it, this Miss Xie's temper was not something anyone could control.

"Why are you laughing?" Xie Ying was still angry with Fu Wujin, but she noticed the little dumpling smiling carefree.

"Xie Jie jie is so good to my fifth brother."

"Where have I ever done anything good for him? I haven't done a thing." Xie Yinge said angrily.

“Alright, it’s windy outside, don't get chilled anymore. Remember what my mother just said, you're not allowed to tell your fifth brother, understand? Otherwise, I won't care who you are.”

After threatening her, Xie Yinquan felt he had been too harsh and worried about scaring her. "I'll just have them not play with you, okay?"

Fu Jiujiu nodded, "I won't say."

Xie Yinfu nodded in satisfaction, "My mother doesn't praise people easily. She said you are better than me, aren't you amazing?"

"I did not thank Sister Mei."

"Fake, you'll definitely be a beautiful woman when you grow up." Xie Ying unconsciously took her hand, small, soft, and chubby.

Fu Jiujiu also knows that if her parents have a good foundation, and she doesn't grow up crooked, she shouldn't be ugly. So she's not being humble, lest people think she's insincere.

I ask you, has your family not betrothed your fifth brother yet?

After Xie Ying asked, she was afraid she hadn't understood. "Do you know what being betrothed means? It means there might be other girls who also want to be your fifth sister-in-law?"

Fu Jiujiu shook her head. "No, but maybe later. Lanjie from the village said my fifth brother is handsome, Xiangjie said my fifth brother is a good doctor, and…"

"That's enough," Xie Ying interrupted her, "They didn't even think about it."
