Su Qingluan's question was originally said casually without any care. After all, he had just been "claimed" back, and it was normal for him to have some kind of estrangement from his original family members.
Unexpectedly, her casual words made Su Xuanhe hesitate and want to say something, but he said nothing.
This made Su Qingluan curious.
Originally, Su Xuanhe was not a very worried child.
Although he often shows off his strength in inexplicable places, he is also very easy to understand, as if what he is thinking is written on his face, so Su Qingluan can often get angry when teasing him and never misses.
She really didn't expect that the word "he hesitated to speak" could be applied to the child Su Xiaoer in front of her.
The sun has set now, and although the wooden lattice windows are open, only the faint moonlight comes in.
Hearing that Su Xuanhe had been wanting to say something but not saying it, Su Qingluan's hand that was rubbing his little brother's belly gently patted him through his clothes: "Why do you look so worried, kid? If you have anything to say, just say it!"
"Actually..." Su Xuanhe slightly turned his body towards Su Qingluan and lay on his side, "It's the eldest sister - the previous 'eldest sister' once said that you were adopted by wealthy families before, and you don't think our family is just a family. A farmer..."
kindness? Su Qingluan really didn't expect that this would also involve the original owner.
It's a pity that she didn't inherit the memory of the original owner, so she doesn't know whether this statement is true or false.
But as she said now, although she likes the life of a rich person, she prefers to be the "rich person" herself rather than being adopted by a rich family with many rules.
After all, although she likes wealth, she is essentially lazy by nature and only likes to make delicious food.
As for the red tape that many wealthy families have, she naturally hopes to avoid it if it can be avoided.
However, Su Qingluan was not sure what the "adopted daughter" said to her younger brother. She only asked vaguely: "It has been a month or two since I came home. My second brother thinks that I have looked down on anyone in the family." How does it look?"
Su Xuanhe was still a very frank child at heart. He thought about it carefully and shook his head.
Realizing that in the dim light, Sister A probably couldn't see his movements clearly, she replied loudly: "No, Sister always makes us some delicious food...just..."
"Just what?"
"...I just favor the little girl..." Su Xuanhe muttered in a low voice, feeling aggrieved.
Su Qingluan was happy when he heard this, and changed his hand from rubbing his belly to a gentle pat: "You still have the nerve to say it?!"
"I know, my little sister is young, and I am the elder brother, so I should let her go more..."
"It's true for parents. Xueyan is only over three years old and does need more care - but isn't it because I prefer Xueyan because she is cuter? She doesn't even move away when I rub her face. !”
What Su Qingluan said was purely personal. But to Su Qingluan, the younger sister is a caring little cotton-padded jacket, and is indeed much cuter than the naughty second brother.
Su Xuanhe didn't know what sister was thinking, so he just said aggrievedly: "At worst...at worst, I'll let you rub your face in the future..."
"Ha, it seems like I have been wronged a lot." Su Qingluan sneered, "Why, when you were getting along with that sister from before, she had such an attitude when she wanted to rub your face?"
It's not that Su Qingluan is petty and has to compete with a thirteen-year-old girl to see who is more popular with her naughty brother, but she has always been sincere to the whole family since she time traveled, and naturally she hopes that the other party can also treat her wholeheartedly. Own.
But she also understood that this was not the little girl's fault - after all, judging from the results, although her original form was not her original intention, it occupied her originally beautiful life for more than ten years. But because of a trick of fate, she herself had to live a simple life in this poor countryside, wearing a Jingchai hairpin and a sarong.
Unexpectedly, Su Xuanhe curled his lips: "The eldest sister before would never touch our faces..."
us?
"She doesn't get close to her little sister either?" This surprised Su Qingluan. You must know that when Su Xueyan is not crying, she is just like a cute little elf in ice and snow.
Could it be that my little sister used to cry very much?
"The eldest sister is not close to anyone in the family..." Su Xuanhe's voice was a little low, "Even her father and mother, she is not close - she always thinks in private that she is different from us, she is a person who wants to live a good life. .”
Su Qingluan was a little suspicious: How did this sound? Did the adopted daughter know that she was a lost child of a wealthy family?
Ha, how is that possible?
This thought flashed through Su Qingluan's mind: It's unscientific enough to time travel by myself, can there be another one?
This is not a bad thing. Otherwise, if I occasionally used some more "modern" words in the past, how come no one had ever suspected it?
At this time, Su Qingluan still didn't know that, in a sense, she had discovered the truth.
"Maybe the eldest sister before you just wanted to live a hard life." Su Qingluan comforted her.
"Now her wish has come true." Su Xuanhe whispered.
"you are not happy?"
"No..." Su Xuanhe's voice contained a little bit of unnoticeable crying, "It's just that when my sister, I, and my parents couldn't let her go, she didn't even look back."
Although in his impression, the previous eldest sister was not close to him or his younger sister, when she was about to leave, Su Xuanhe still felt a little reluctant in his little heart.
However, the eldest sister did not look back for a moment, she just left, and then only the servants came.
Even before leaving, the eldest sister told him and his family, "No one likes to live in poverty and hardship, and the same goes for the eldest daughter of the Su family. She couldn't even accept the fact and threw herself into the river."
Because of the living example of his eldest sister, Su Xuanhe held his breath for a long time about Su Qingluan, his true blood sister.
Su Qingluan moved the hand on her second brother's belly and touched his little face. This time, he didn't run away.
"You don't have to worry this time, I won't leave you." Su Qingluan smiled slightly - although her smile was definitely invisible to her brother, "and I won't dislike my current life."
"Why?" Su Xuanhe raised his head slightly, "Because Sister A is a person who, as Master Zhou said, 'wealth and honor cannot take away one's ambition'?"
"On the contrary," Su Qingluan personally broke his brother's virtue filter, "wealth is too powerful to capture my ambition."
"...You, you should try to pretend..."
"What do you know, kid? A gentleman loves money and gets it wisely!" Su Qingluan pinched his brother's nose, "As long as you get wealth by your own ability, why don't you want it?"
Child Su Xuanhe also seemed to have a fighting spirit: "I will also work hard to make more money when I grow up, so that my parents, you and your sister can live a good life!"
"puff--"
Suddenly there was a particularly loud sound in the darkness.
Su Qingluan was stunned: What is the sound?
Su Xuanhe froze and stopped moving.
