Xia Junmei ignored her stunned daughter and went to open the door.
Xia Zhidu was ready to take out the key to open the door himself, but when he saw someone finally came to open the door, he put the key back into his pocket and asked his mother with a smile: "What's wrong with that girl?"
"What's going on?" Xia Junmei pointed towards the room, suppressed her laughter and whispered to Xia Zhi, "She was scared silly."
Xia Zhi laughed out loud: "Are you scared like this? I haven't said anything yet."
"If you had told her in advance, she wouldn't have been so scared." Xia Junmei glanced at her son, then turned around and smiled at Jiang Zhixia who was standing behind Xia Zhixia, and said, "Xiao Jiang is here, come in quickly."
"Auntie, sorry to bother you." Jiang Zhixia raised the corner of her mouth slightly and followed Xia Zhi into the house.
"We are all family, there is no need to be so formal." Xia Junmei took out a pair of clean slippers for Jiang Zhixia, and called her daughter who was still standing stupidly not far away, "Yingying, come here quickly."
Sheng Yingying mechanically turned her head and saw Jiang Zhixia walking in hand in hand with her brother. Her mind went blank. But after hearing her mother's words, she still swung her stiff hands and feet and walked over.
Xia Junmei took her daughter's hand and introduced her to Jiang Zhixia: "This is Xia Xia's sister, Yingying. It's the first time we meet, right?"
"We met by chance a few days ago." Jiang Zhixia turned and smiled at Sheng Yingying, "Yingying, we meet again."
“…” Sheng Yingying was still in a daze at this moment. Although she was staring at Jiang Zhixia, she didn’t hear him speak at all. Her brain was completely filled with the shocking fact that “her brother’s partner is actually Jiang Zhixia”.
My idol turned out to be my sister-in-law! I turned out to be my idol's sister-in-law!
It's so good--so exciting--
Seeing that her daughter didn't respond for a long time, Xia Junmei gently poked her on the back and reminded her in a low voice: "Call for help."
what is it call
Sheng Yingying came back to her senses, stared at Jiang Zhixia for a while, swallowed her saliva, and spoke hesitantly: "Sister-in-law, sister-in-law~~"
Jiang Zhixia: “…”
"Pfft—" Xia Zhi glanced at her boyfriend with a complicated expression, lowered her head and covered her mouth to laugh. "What are you yelling about? Don't be rude!" Xia Junmei frowned and scolded her daughter, then turned to Jiang Zhixia and smiled embarrassedly, "Xiao Jiang, don't mind it. This girl has no control over her mouth and often talks nonsense."
Jiang Zhixia smiled and shook her head, saying it didn't matter who it was, but she still felt a little uncomfortable in her heart - no matter her height or body position, she wouldn't be called sister-in-law.
After Sheng Yingying finished shouting, she immediately realized that she had shouted the wrong thing, but she didn't know how to shout it.
Logically speaking, a man’s sister-in-law is also considered a sister-in-law…
Fortunately, Xia Zhi laughed but still cared about the brother-sister relationship and helped to resolve the situation: "Just call me brother. He will be your brother from now on."
"…" Sheng Yingying raised her head and called out to Jiang Zhixia tentatively, "Brother Zhi, Brother Zhixia?"
Jiang Zhixia responded, and reached out to rub her head gently, with a gentle smile on his lips.
Sheng Yingying suddenly felt so happy that her soul was about to float up—her idol touched her head! Oh, oh, oh! Her idol smiled at her and touched her head!
Xia Zhi saw through her love-crazy sister's thoughts at a glance, narrowed her eyes, reached out and pulled her hair, and asked with disgust: "What's wrong with your head?"
"Ouch!" Sheng Yingying was pulled back and immediately protested angrily, "Don't pull my hair! I don't have much hair to begin with!"
“This color is so ugly.”
"Bullshit!" Sheng Yingying retorted, "It's obviously beautiful, it's you who have no taste!"
"Do you usually deceive yourself like this?"
"You are deceiving yourself!"
Jiang Zhixia: “…”
Why did they start arguing for no reason
Xia Junmei saw that the situation was not right and quickly pulled Jiang Zhixia inside, saying, "Xiao Jiang, let's go to the living room and ignore them."
"Is it okay?" Jiang Zhixia was a little worried.
"It's okay. They have been quarreling since they were young. Just let them be." Xia Junmei smiled and pulled Jiang Zhixia to the living room. "Although Xia Xia has become more stable now that she is a teacher, she is still like a child when she meets her sister. They quarrel after just a few words. The brother and sister are the same, so naughty. I don't know when they will grow up."
Jiang Zhixia smiled and said, "Actually, this is pretty good. We can only quarrel like this if we have a good relationship."
"That's true." Xia Junmei nodded with a smile. "Although the brother and sister are nine years apart, they have a really good relationship. When we were young, your uncle and I were busy with work, so Xia Xia basically took care of Yingying. Because of this, Yingying has been very close to her brother since she was a child. When she had nightmares and cried loudly, your uncle and I couldn't comfort her, so she had to look for her brother. And Xia Xia has been caring since she was a child. He has been responsible for picking up and dropping off Yingying since she started kindergarten."
Although Xia Junmei has been teaching for half her life and has received countless honors and achievements, she is most proud of her children. Whenever she talks about them, she can't stop talking for a while.
While Xia Junmei was revealing her children's dark history to Jiang Zhixia, the brother and sister who were bickering at the gate had already started fighting.
"Xia Zhi! Do you have to be so tight-lipped?" After Xia Junmei and Jiang Zhixia entered the room, Sheng Yingying immediately grabbed her brother's collar and shook him hard, "You are a clam, right? You didn't say a word about such an important matter!"
Xia Zhi was rocked back and forth by her sister, but she did not resist. She smiled and calmly explained, "I just wanted to give you a surprise."
"You call this a surprise?!" Sheng Yingying's eyes widened, "Your surprises are only shocks, not joys!"
"How can there be no joy?" Xia Zhi retorted, "I brought the man you dreamed of day and night into my home to be your sister-in-law. Isn't this a great joy?"
"This!" Sheng Yingying was about to raise her voice, but suddenly remembered the man in the living room and quickly lowered her voice, "What kind of happy event is this! You stole my husband."
Xia Zhi stretched out an index finger and gently placed it on her sister's forehead, smiling brightly: "That's my husband, you are not allowed to call him that in the future."
"..." Sheng Yingying's heart was broken, "You've gone too far. You're still my brother!"
"If I wasn't your biological brother, do you think you would have anything to do with Jiang Zhixia in this life?" Xia Zhi poked his sister's forehead in frustration, "Because of me, you can still call him brother. If it weren't for me, you and him would be two strangers. Even if you call him husband a thousand times in front of his photo, he would never really be your husband."
Sheng Yingying pouted. Although she understood what her brother said, it would take time for her to accept that her husband, who was so old, had become her sister-in-law!
"Don't scream anymore, you hear me?" Xia Zhi patted her scared sister's head and said, "Also, you need to get back to normal as soon as possible. You were so stupid just now. Your boyfriend will definitely think you have cerebral palsy."
"You're the one with brain damage!" Sheng Yingying immediately retorted, "Don't think I won't beat you up just because you're dating my idol!"
Xia Zhi raised her eyebrows and chuckled: "I don't care. If you don't want your idol's high-definition private photos, just do it."
"Hmm?" Sheng Yingying's ears moved.
High! Clear! Private! House! Photos!
"What kind of private photos?" Sheng Yingying asked excitedly, "The kind where you don't wear clothes?"
"You wish!" Xia Zhi patted his sister's head, "That's your sister-in-law! Keep your thoughts pure!"
Sheng Yingying covered her forehead and pursed her lips in grievance - it was less than half an hour since she changed from husband to sister-in-law, it was normal that she couldn't make the transition for a while, her brother was so fierce!
The two were about to quarrel again, and Xia Junmei suddenly came out from the living room and asked them calmly: "Are you two done arguing? If you are, come over to eat. The food is getting cold."
The brother and sister had no choice but to stop fighting and fill their stomachs first.
On the way to the living room, Sheng Yingying suddenly reminded Xia Zhi in a low voice: "By the way, brother, when we eat later, remind my male god to eat more roast duck, and just a few bites of the other food will be enough."
Xia Zhi understood immediately: "Did you buy the roast duck?"
"Nonsense, you know what our parents are good at cooking." Sheng Yingying said thankfully, "Luckily there is a roast duck, otherwise my male idol will only be able to chew white rice today."
Xia Zhi laughed and raised his hand to rub his sister's head.
Sheng Yingying still felt a little uncomfortable facing Jiang Zhixia. She blushed and stammered, calling out "Brother Zhixia" before following her parents to the kitchen to serve the dishes.
Jiang Zhixia walked up to Xia Zhi and asked quietly, "Your sister hasn't accepted it yet?"
"How can it be so fast?" Xia Zhi turned to glance at him and said slowly, "It's hard for most people to accept that their dream lover suddenly becomes their sister-in-law."
"...Sister-in-law?" Jiang Zhixia put her lips close to Xia Zhi's ear and whispered, "You must be calling me the wrong name."
"What's wrong? It's obviously correct." Xia Zhi looked at him with a smile, "Do you have any objections?"
Jiang Zhixia laughed and pinched his cheek: "As long as you are happy."
Xia Zhi laughed even more happily.
Sheng Yingying stood at the kitchen door, biting her hand and watching the scene in the living room, her eyes sparkling.
She was originally called out by Xia Junmei to invite her brother and her idol to dinner, but as soon as she walked to the kitchen door, she saw the two of them whispering with their heads leaning against each other. Both of them had smiles on their faces. Although there was no overly intimate behavior, it seemed that one could see the tenderness and love flowing in their eyes. The two of them were just standing together and whispering, but the scene was inexplicably harmonious and beautiful, so beautiful that Sheng Yingying couldn't bear to break it, so she stood at the kitchen door and didn't go over.
It was precisely because she did not go over to disturb them that she had the opportunity to see this beautiful scene of the two of them spending time together in private. Before this, Sheng Yingying could never have imagined that her male god could smile so gently, nor did she know that her brother could be so arrogant because of his favor.
It's just... quite delicious.
