"That's right, I like it very much too!" Xiao Yushu couldn't help but exclaim. She absolutely loved the houses Mommy designed; they were so comfortable to live in!
"Flatterer!" Xiao Cuicui had always disliked Yushu and couldn't help but curse upon hearing that.
Xiao Yushu: "???"
Lu Wanqing was also bewildered, but upon realizing what had happened, she found it amusing. She couldn't help but ask Cuicui, "Cuicui, you don't like the Siheyuan?"
Xiao Cuicui's body instantly stiffened. Dislike it? Mommy designed it, of course she liked it!
She just couldn't stand seeing Yushu constantly following Mommy around, acting so well-behaved. It was so annoying!
Flatterer!
Always pretending to be good in front of Mommy, trying to trick Mommy's affection!
Lu Wanqing felt a little troubled. "Shushu, you don't like this style? It's okay, we still have plenty of land. Whatever style Shushu likes, Mommy will build a new house for you later, alright?"
As Lu Wanqing spoke, she looked at Shushu again, then stroked the top of Shushu's head. She then turned to Cuicui and lectured, "Shushu genuinely likes the Siheyuan. She's not flattering me. Cuicui, you should get along well with your sister Yushu, don't scold her~"
Wei Xingzhou stood by the side, successfully witnessing his daughter's predicament. Hahaha, he was so happy!!!
Seeing his daughter's little face turning red with embarrassment, Wei Xingzhou finally stepped in to save the situation. "Hahaha, Cuicui doesn't dislike it. That's just her personality. She actually super loves the Siheyuan you designed."
"Lu Wanqing, hurry and take us to see Cuicui's room. Cuicui and I can't wait to see it!" Wei Xingzhou urged with a smile.
Lu Wanqing looked at Wei Xingzhou, then at Cuicui. She noticed that little Cuicui had a stern expression on her face, and it seemed...
As Wei Xingzhou said, the little one was just being contrary?
"Let's go. Didn't you say you wanted to see it?" Cuicui said impatiently and turned to walk ahead.
Lu Wanqing now felt it clearly: Cuicui was truly tsundere, saying one thing and meaning another.
However, this kind of personality wasn't good. Although she didn't mean to hurt anyone, constantly saying such hurtful things could wound the hearts of even friends and sisters. Cuicui would end up with no friends in the future.
Lu Wanqing thought to herself. She seemed to understand what the problem was with Cuicui. She would have to put in more effort in the future to try and change the child's sharp tongue; she couldn't indulge it.
A blade has an edge, and harming others ultimately harms oneself.
Lu Wanqing mused, then lowered her gaze to look at Xiao Yushu. She raised her hand and dotingly rubbed the top of Shushu's head, comforting her, "Shushu, don't be sad. Sister Cuicui didn't mean to scold you. She's just..."
Just what?
Just has a sharp tongue?
Cuicui was right here, and the child might still be listening. She couldn't say it.
"Mm, I know," Xiao Yushu nodded, saying obediently.
"Sister Cuicui is very good," Xiao Yushu added next.
Lu Wanqing looked down at Shushu and felt that this child was truly too well-behaved. But...
For some reason, she suddenly thought of the last time. When she had been delayed for fifteen days due to that brother and sister, Shushu had also looked at her with such obedient and sensible eyes, saying, "It's okay," and then later started settling accounts with her...
The kind where she accounted for every single day!
Lu Wanqing: "..."
Shushu, who was outwardly innocent but inwardly cunning, was inexplicably terrifying. Her current obedience wasn't what she thought it was, was it?
Some things couldn't be thought about. The more Lu Wanqing thought about it, the more frightened she became. Cuicui's sharp tongue might have offended Shushu first, right?
If she had to say it, who in this world couldn't afford to offend? Of course, it would be someone outwardly innocent but inwardly cunning, the truly terrifying kind!
However, Shushu wasn't doing anything extreme now. Was it wrong for her to educate Shushu? It might even lead to misunderstanding the child.
Lu Wanqing thought about it and could only silently suppress her thoughts. Don't overthink it. It's fine. Shushu is very well-behaved and wouldn't hold a grudge. Besides, she would be with Cuicui from now on, so she just needed to pay more attention. It should be fine?
Lu Wanqing was thinking when they had already walked a distance ahead. She snapped back to attention from her thoughts and looked around, suddenly realizing they were going in the wrong direction!
"Cuicui, it's not that way!" Lu Wanqing quickly reminded her.
Cuicui, who was walking ahead: "..."
Lu Wanqing pointed in another direction and said, "It's that way."
"I've prepared a special room for Cuicui, along with a small courtyard, all decorated according to Cuicui's usual preferences," Lu Wanqing said.
"Wow~" Wei Xingzhou's eyes immediately lit up. He was extremely excited.
Xiao Cuicui's eyes also brightened. The corners of her lips, which had been tightly pursed, now curved uncontrollably. She couldn't help but smile.
"Mommy also prepared a house and a yard for me, and the plants in the yard were planted by Mommy and me together!" Xiao Yushu suddenly interjected. Her tone was calm and understated, but it inexplicably carried a sense of... comparison?
Cuicui's expression indeed darkened. She had been outdone. Her room and courtyard weren't decorated by her and Mommy together; Mommy had decorated them alone because she hadn't been there at the time!
Seeing Cuicui's expression change, Lu Wanqing subtly glanced at Yushu and...
Her feelings were complex!
Yushu had indeed changed!
Outwardly innocent, inwardly cunning!
So wicked!
Was it just one sentence that caused this enmity? You just said it was okay a moment ago, and now you're drawing your sword for revenge in the blink of an eye?
What was most unbelievable was that what Yushu said was truly flawless. Even she, if she tried to find fault on the surface, couldn't find any real issues. She couldn't even remind Yushu not to bully her sister!
"It's okay. When we get to Cuicui's house later, Mommy can also help Cuicui decorate the room," Lu Wanqing quickly comforted her.
Cuicui pursed her lips and finally didn't seem so angry.
"Let's go," Cuicui said, exuding a queenly aura.
Lu Wanqing really couldn't help it. Cuicui was so adorable, incredibly adorable. If Yushu weren't here, she would really want to rush forward and hug Cuicui for a good kiss!
It's just that...
With Yushu here, she had a strange intuition that she couldn't do that in front of Yushu, or Cuicui would end up suffering.
"Okay, let's go together," Lu Wanqing said quickly.
Lu Wanqing led the way, and they soon arrived at the courtyard specially designed for Cuicui.
Shushu liked plants, so Lu Wanqing had used a lot of plants and green in decorating Shushu's courtyard and room.
Cuicui was more vain and had a bit of a queenly temper, so Lu Wanqing chose a queenly style for the decoration here: exquisite, luxurious, and magnificent. Most importantly, it was beautiful!
As soon as she entered the courtyard, Cuicui's eyes lit up. She liked it here!
"Wow wow wow, so beautiful! Lu Wanqing, how did you design this? You're a genius! Why don't you come to our house and design for us too after this? Cuicui will definitely like this style you designed!!!" Wei Xingzhou was the first to exclaim excitedly. He liked it immensely.
