Chapter 128: Chapter 128 Her Younger Sister

If her daughter-in-law is pregnant, an old mother could at most scold her, but he could easily get beaten with a broom by the old lady.

Sanni spoke softly with her head lowered, "It does not hurt anymore."

"Ah!"

Chen Jianye sighed, rubbing the back of her head, "Don’t blame your mother too much, she’s just unable to control her emotions because she’s pregnant with your brother."

That’s right, after hearing Li Chunhua’s repeated remarks every day, Chen Jianye firmly believed that she was carrying a boy this time.

Sanni said nothing, and there was no hint of emotion on her small face.

When she was younger, she would hope that her father could stop her mother from hitting her, but after repeated hopes and disappointments, she had long lost any expectations of Chen Jianye.

Instead, it was her grandmother, whom she had never expected, who protected her, along with Guibao, her own younger sister.

She had always envied Erni for having an older sister who cared for and protected her, but now she was no longer envious because she too had a younger sister.

And besides, she was the older sister, four years older than Guibao. It was her responsibility to protect her sister.

Family ties truly are an amazing thing. In this moment, Sanni immediately regarded Helian Qiao, who shared her blood, as her closest relative.

Chen Jianye called out twice, but his daughter, deep in her thoughts, did not respond. He ended up spending half an hour in the courtyard, feeding the mosquitoes, with no cries coming from the house.

So, he got up and said to his eldest daughter, "Let’s go, come sleep in the house with Dad.

Sanni nodded her head. With her father around, at least she won’t be driven out of the house by her mother, leaving her with nowhere to sleep.

The sweetly sleeping Helian Qiao had no knowledge of the events of the evening.

The next morning as she finished dressing, she patted her pocket and exclaimed, "Oh no, Granny, my money is still in the pocket of yesterday’s clothes."

Ma Xiulian paused, "What money?"

Helian Qiao blinked her moist, shiny eyes and explained softly, "The five yuan that Granny gave me."

Ma Xiulian exclaimed in surprise, "You didn’t spend the five yuan?"

She thought her granddaughter had spent all of it on food - every time she went to town, she would spend two or three yuan on food for her granddaughter, and Guibao had even brought back cakes and meat buns this time.

The Little Princess honestly shook her head, "No!"

With the big dragon around, she hadn’t thought of spending her own money on anything.

Looking at her innocent childish face, Ma Xiulian calmly said, "I’ve kept the money."

She was certain when she helped her granddaughter change her clothes yesterday that there was no money in the pocket. The five dollars Sanni found must therefore belong to their household.

However, when Jiang arrives, she should still ask him about it.

As for the meat buns and cake she bought for Guibao, they won’t be returning that. They can find a way to reciprocate next time.

At breakfast, Chen Erbao tried to coax his younger sister to go play with him again before Gu Tingyun arrived, "Guibao, it’s not going to rain today. Let’s go pick bird eggs to eat."

It had only rained for a while yesterday morning. He went kite flying with his little friends in the afternoon.

Hearing about the bird eggs, Helian Qiao was tempted, "Okay, let’s wait for Gu Tingyun and go together."

Chen Erbao immediately turned up his nose and said contemptuously, "He’s as white as a girl, he wouldn’t be able to climb a tree. Let’s not bring him."

Even if the pretty boy could climb a tree, he wouldn’t want to bring him along. Who told him to dare to compete with him for his sister!

Hearing this, Helian Qiao unconsciously looked towards the door, afraid that the big mean dragon might suddenly appear and crush him.
