The little money-grubber just wants to lie down, Mr. Huo's sweet wife

When Si Nian finished all his work and returned to the Si family, it was already dinner time.

The moment Si Nian stepped into the house, she felt a little regretful. She should have eaten outside before coming back.

Otherwise...I probably won't have any food tonight.

Wouldn’t that mean I’d have to go hungry?

Or...just think of it as losing weight. If you are really hungry, just drink water.

After Si Nian entered the house, the Si family was sitting in the dining room having dinner. Si Nian didn't plan to say hello and prepared to go upstairs. It was not an important moment anyway.

Let's go upstairs first. As soon as I reached the stairs, I heard Simuqiao's voice, cold and distant: "Where are you going? Why don't you come upstairs without eating?"

Not ready to say hello yet?

What is this girl doing recently?

"I'm not hungry, so I won't eat. I probably won't have any food left, so I won't bother myself."

Si Nian's indifferent attitude made Si Muqiao's heart choke, and a trace of heartache flashed in his eyes.

The thought of missing someone without making any noise is still very well-behaved, just like when I was a child.

if......

"Nonsense, you didn't even have dinner. Do you want to starve yourself to death?" Si Muqiao rarely explained: "Auntie Zhang has already known her mistakes and is waiting for you to come back and apologize. Wanwan also has something to say to you about what happened yesterday."

Si Nian was stunned and a little surprised. Is there a chance that these people would stand on her side?

No way...it can't be the heroine's little thoughts.

[It's really not easy. Did Zhang Ma realize she was wrong? Twelve years have passed, and she only realized it now. It's really a little late for her to wake up. If I had the chance, I really want to count all the ways Zhang Ma treated me over the years.]

Si Muwan said something, probably something like, "I was so scared at the time that I forgot to react. I'm really sorry for causing you to drown." It was a completely insincere apology.

If it really was an accident and not intentional, I wouldn't have pretended to be unconscious for so long and had Si Muyu come to my house to take me home to apologize.

Although my apology wasn't successful, I'm still upset. Being wronged is such a bad feeling. I've also been wronged by Si Muwan for twelve years.

"Why not just move out sooner? I'm not completely without a place to live anyway. That apartment is pretty good."

Si Muqiao and Si Muyu looked unhappy when they heard these words, and even Mu Huawei's expression was not very good.

The second and third children are not at home?

Si Muwan stood up and said, "Sister, I'm sorry. What happened yesterday was my fault. I said something without thinking and was afraid of being blamed by my brother. I was really scared, so I hurriedly pulled you to jump.

I forgot you couldn't swim, and it was my fault that you drowned. I can agree to any compensation you want, as long as you don't get angry with me. And Aunt Zhang, she was just doing it for me and didn't mean to hurt you, so please don't get angry, okay?"

Si Muqiao frowned. What was wrong with Wanwan? She actually asked Si Nian not to be angry and to plead for Zhang Ma for the sake of a servant?

Aunt Zhang stood in front of Si Nian, her eyes filled with reluctance, but she still lowered her head in humiliation: "Miss Nian Nian, I was inconsiderate in my actions. I'm really sorry. Please don't hold it against me. I was really careless. From now on, whether Miss Nian Nian is at home or not, I will prepare food for her.

I hope Miss Nian Nian can forgive me this time. The eldest lady only pleads for me out of pity for a lonely person like me. I hope Miss Nian Nian will not treat people like me with the same scorn."

Si Nian curled his lips indifferently and did not intend to answer them.

[Si Muwan's words are exactly what I guessed. She was so scared that she dragged me into the water? I really don't know what she was thinking. If I hadn't come, Si Nian would have drowned long ago, okay? How could she still be standing here?]

Mu Huawei was very shocked. What did he mean by "she came, otherwise Si Nian would have been drowned?"

What does it mean!

Simultaneously, Si Muqiao and Si Muyu were also shocked. The way they looked at Si Nian changed. Who was Si Nian in front of them?

"What Aunt Zhang said is hilarious. Isn't it a servant's job to prepare meals whether the master is home or not? Why does she have to emphasize it so much?"

[Also, this person's way of addressing me is quite sophisticated. Everyone knows I'm an adopted daughter, but I'm also the eldest daughter recognized by the Si family, and Si Muwan is the second daughter. Yet, this Aunt Zhang calls me Miss Nian Nian and Si Muwan Miss. What is she trying to emphasize? Is she trying to make me remember my identity?]

[It's not impossible. After all, Aunt Zhang cares about Si Muwan more than anyone else.]

Mu Huawei frowned and looked at Aunt Zhang: "Aunt Zhang, what's the matter with your address? As long as Nian Nian doesn't leave the Si family, she will always be the eldest daughter of the Si family. My Wanwan is the second daughter, and that's been announced to the public. Why do you call Wanwan the eldest daughter and Si Nian Miss Nian Nian?"

Aunt Zhang didn't expect the lady to suddenly get angry, but she had always called her that.

Any questions? !

That's what she's always called!

Madam didn't say anything before, why did she say that today?

Si Nian was also stunned. She was thinking this in her mind just now, so why did Ms. Mu say it out loud?

Could it be the roundworms in my stomach?

Eh~~~so disgusting!

Si Muwan's face fell instantly. Why did her mother emphasize this matter? She has always been the eldest daughter in the eyes of these servants. Why should she emphasize it!

She is obviously the eldest daughter, why should she act like the second daughter?

"Mom...I've been calling you Aunt Zhang for more than ten years. It's our family name anyway, so it doesn't affect anything..." Si Muwan tried to explain.

After all, she is the real eldest lady, isn't she?

Why should Si Nian be the eldest lady?

She doesn't want to!

"Then we'll change it starting today. With so many distinguished guests coming to visit us from now on, do we want everyone to think the Si family treats Si Nian badly? Or do we want them to think the Si family's servants are so free and undisciplined that they can change the name of the eldest lady at will?"

Si Nian was a little confused. How was this supposed to work?

[Uh...what's going on? She just went out for a while, so why does Mom seem like a different person? I've been hearing her call me Miss Nian Nian for over a decade, so what's the difference? Isn't it a little late to emphasize this now?]

[However, she also said that it was for the Si family's reputation, not for me, so there is no need for me to thank her.]

Si Muwan seemed to have suffered some injustice and stopped talking. There was moisture in her eyes, but her brothers seemed not to notice.

"Si Nian, they've all apologized. Do you have anything to say?"

Si Nian's mouth twitched. "It doesn't matter. It's the same whether you apologize or not. It's just a bland remark. There's no real punishment. It's all the same. Don't worry about it. I don't take it to heart. I don't want to hurt your precious daughter and precious sister."

Si Nian didn't want to say anything, so he stood up and prepared to leave.

"You guys eat, I have no appetite."

Si Muqiao put down his bowl and chopsticks, and looked at Si Nian with a puzzled look: "Then what do you want? Tell me, saying these words means you think we are biased, right?"

Si Nian laughed self-deprecatingly: "I've already told you it's okay, is that still not okay?"

[Little Master, do you think this guy is mentally ill?]
