The boys finished their showers and called out in the yard, telling their sister she could go now.
"Sister-in-law, you go first."
"No, you go shower. I'll wait a bit to help second aunt."
"I should do it."
"You don't need to, I'm here, I can handle it."
Li Xue didn't resist, and after showering, she sat on the floor combing her hair.
"Xue, Mom went to find your big brother the other night."
Li Xue paused her actions. "She must have given big brother a hard time again."
"Yes, her new husband got caught because of some issues. She probably approached Dad, but he wouldn't see her, so she asked your big brother to find a way.
What can the two of us ordinary clerks do?"
"She must be hoping Dad or your uncle can help."
"Yes, but who would want to get involved in this now?"
"Who knows what she's thinking?"
"Well, what else could it be? Watching Dad live better than she does." Zheng Lihong regretted her words immediately. It's someone else's biological mother.
