"Okay!"
"Thank you for all your trouble."
"It's no trouble. Changyi, I've been discussing this with your other clan uncles for the past couple of days. We're preparing to add your younger sister to the family register. What are your thoughts on that?"
Xie Changyi was no fool.
They must have heard about her sister's accomplishments in Chuncheng and were now trying to curry favor.
'They refused to add us before, so why the sudden change of heart now?'
"It was because we were afraid of an investigation back then; the clan uncles didn't dare to add you. But now Changning is so accomplished! According to our ancestral precepts, she's eligible for her own separate page in the family register!"
Xie Changyi's eyes darted back and forth at her granduncle's words. She replied slowly.
"I need to ask my sister about this. It's best if you wait for my response, Granduncle."
'What if her sister felt no attachment to the Xie Family?'
'For now, I won't let them be added.'
