My sister became the empress, but I'm still growing vegetables and raising chickens

The second sister did not go to rest. She simply washed up and went to the younger sister's room.

Originally, my younger sister lived in the same room with Aunt Jin, but my younger sister was unhappy these days, so Aunt Jin slept with my second sister and took care of Xiaoxia together.

Xiaoxia had grown up and was no longer as troublesome as she had been during the confinement period. She only needed to get up once or twice at night to feed and change diapers. In fact, most nights were taken care of by Si Xingzhi, but Si Muyan said that her second sister was her mother after all, and she had to be busy during the day, so Xiaoxia would always fall asleep when she came home at night. Every few days, she would have to take Xiaoxia to sleep with her to enhance the mother-daughter relationship.

There was no light in the younger sister's room. The second sister lit the oil lamp on the table by the light of the fire and turned around to look at the younger sister who was covered with a quilt.

"Not asleep?" the second sister asked. When she didn't hear a response, she simply sat down on the bed and continued, "Don't worry, Xiaoxia's fever has subsided. Big sister is the best, she won't let anything happen to Xiaoxia."

The younger sister then slowly pulled down the quilt and whispered, "Second sister, I'm sorry, I... didn't expect to scare Xiaoxia sick."

The second sister sighed: "Who should you say sorry to?"

My little sister stopped talking.

The second sister said, "Think about it yourself. Is this whole thing the eldest sister's fault?"

When talking about love, my sister's eyes turned red again and tears kept flowing down.

The second sister said, "Those involved are often confused, but those who are on the sidelines can see clearly. We all realized that day that the Xu family had made a mistake. It was Xu Feng himself who couldn't explain it, so why did you blame the mistake on my eldest sister? Just because Old Lady Xu liked my eldest sister? But don't forget, if it weren't for my eldest sister winning Old Lady Xu's favor, our food shop might not have been able to open, and you and Xu Feng might not have met."

The younger sister wiped away her tears: "But elder sister, you won't let me meet Fourth Brother Xu..."

"What will you say when you meet? Will you listen to his sweet words to you?" asked the second sister.

The younger sister was stuck. She had just lost a relationship and she really wanted to hear her lover explain in person what had happened.

The second sister patted the youngest sister's hand and said, "Do you know what the eldest sister told me on the way back that day? She said that Xu Feng is not a good man, and even if she had to be the bad guy, she would not agree to you marrying him."

The younger sister looked up in surprise and said hurriedly, "Why did you say that, Big Sister? Fourth Brother was just...just shy and didn't say it, so the Xu family misunderstood."

"Little sister, I always thought you were much smarter than me, but why can't you see things that even I can understand? Xu Feng may have been shy or afraid before, but because of this incident, because of his hesitation, he made both you and I very embarrassed. But from beginning to end, he didn't say anything, letting you two be so embarrassed. Even after you ran away, I was worried about you, and I was worried about you too, so I immediately asked Dad to chase you out. What was Xu Feng doing at that time? He was in a daze!"

The younger sister defended herself: "Because they are his family after all..."

"So, for the sake of the family, I can abandon you?" the second sister said, "Eldest sister is right. Making a mistake isn't scary. What's scary is not daring to take responsibility. Xu Feng is just like that. In fact, there are clues to everything, right? It's not even necessarily an accidental mistake. He knew from the beginning that his mother liked eldest sister, not you, so he didn't say it."

"No, no, he's not like that."

The second sister said firmly, "That's just the way he is. The reason he doesn't express his opinion is that he puts the decision-making power in the hands of others. If the eldest sister is strong and forces Old Lady Xu to acknowledge his relationship with you, then you can be together happily. He doesn't have to disobey his mother. After all, it was the eldest sister who forced him, wasn't it?"

The younger sister was stunned.

The second sister turned her face away: "I'm afraid that it wasn't just Xu Feng who thought so at the time, you too."

"No... I didn't." The younger sister quickly denied it, but she felt a little guilty. Really? If she really didn't, why would she blame her elder sister?

She blamed her elder sister for stealing her husband, but in fact she was blaming her elder sister for not finding a way to make the Xu family accept her.

The second sister continued, "Actually, I have another analysis, and I'll share it with you as well. Xu Feng probably made a backup plan at the time. That is, his mother was more powerful and oppressed the Si family. Since my eldest sister is similar to you, it wouldn't hurt him to have a similar wife."

"Impossible! He...he!" The younger sister's eyes widened.

The second sister sighed. "Before, Xu Feng came to see you every day, and I saw him looking at you with joy and admiration. But then, during the cooking competition, we sat together in front of the window of the private room to watch the competition. When my eldest sister was reasoning with you, I noticed that Xu Feng's eyes were also full of admiration."

The younger sister stopped arguing. She sat on the bed, covering her face and crying.

"After returning, my eldest sister even went to the home of the village head and asked him to help stop the Xu family. She said that even if it meant forcibly breaking up a couple, she wouldn't let you two meet again. She was afraid you'd do something stupid for such an unworthy man." The second sister turned her face away and said, "Little sister, I've done stupid things like this before. Do you want to regret it for the rest of your life like me?"

"Eldest sister...when she found out you and Xu Feng liked each other, she said she would work harder to make the Si family stand taller. That way, she could give you...not just you, but us enough sense of security so that if we wanted to come back in the future, we could do so without any worries."

The little sister couldn't hold it in any longer and burst into tears.

Early the next morning, Si Muyan was still awakened by Xiaoxia's loud crying. She turned her head and the little guy turned over, but because Si Muyan was holding her back and she was holding down one of her arms, she couldn't turn over.

What a cute little guy.

Just as Si Muyan was about to hug her, the door was pushed open.

The younger sister's eyes were still swollen, but she looked very energetic. She smiled and said, "Sister, is Xiaoxia awake? I'll dress her and take her out. You can sleep a little longer!"

Si Muyan didn't ask any more questions, but after the younger sister went out, she was stopped by Si Xingzhi.

"Little sister, are you okay?"

The younger sister laughed and said, "Dad, I'm not like my second sister, who has been foolish for so long..."

The second sister happened to be passing by and gave the youngest sister a slap on the face when she heard this: "Good for you, little sister! I stayed up all night talking to you, and now you wake up and start making up stories about me?"

The younger sister hid while laughing: "Second sister, I was wrong, I was wrong... Oh, what I meant was that men are unreliable and I have to rely on myself."

Si Muyan didn't sleep for long. The dim sum shop opened today and she had to go with it.

When we arrived at the dim sum shop, Boss An was standing there with a few people. Beside him was a well-dressed and generous young woman, who should be his eldest daughter, An Susu.
