Once Mrs Zhang had taken Shi Ai under her wing,there was no way she would be able to escape.Like a mother hen,she clucked and cooed at Shi Ai, force fed her some tasty food as she was too skinny and unlike her husband and son did not try to convince Shi Ai to join the family.She simply ordered Shi Ai to move in and her sons to help her pack.They had been ordered to be done with their tasks by that evening itself..Zhang Min was happy,Zhang Yi and Zhang Fei were at a loss and Shi Ai was speechless.She had been maneuvered by a master.She had no idea when she agreed to join their family.
By the time the meal was over,Auntie Luo had already planned the look of Shi Ai's room,fixed a time to go shopping the next day,etc.By the time the poor Shi Ai realized what had happened,she had already agreed to everything.
Mrs Zhang was an experienced mother.She had already sensed Shi Ai's reluctance.But she had reared three sons and knew how to handle this.She finally had a beautiful and talented daughter.She remembered when the boys were young and she went shopping she used to admire all those dresses for little girls but never got to buy them.Well Shi Ai was too old for frilly dresses but she could buy her a few fashionable ones.She almost rubbed hands at the thought of shopping for pretty things. Hmm,she observed the pretty Shi Ai once more and decided that maybe vacation could wait for a bit more time...The rice cakes had been gobbled up by everyone the moment they were placed on the table and once again Mrs Zhang was very satisfied. This was because she could not cook worth a penny and neither could her sons...but now they had a member of the family who knew how to cook!
After the breakfast affair as decided by their mother,the three brothers escorted their new sister to her rented home.Of course,Zhang Ye and Zhang Fei had both hidden agendas and getting a new sister was going to be of great help to them!
They reached the house in a little while and looked to Shi Ai for instructions on what to pack or not.She,who was still in shock seemed to slowly realize that she did not need these three to help her pack.After all,the furniture in the house was all rented with the house and she had very little belongings,most of which were already stored in a box.She needed to only pack a few clothes and a few art supplies.So she looked at the three brothers and smiling warily said,"You can leave if you wish.I don't have much stuff and all that I do have is personal so I won't be needing much help.I'll tell Aunty Luo that you did try to help me.Please do not bother on y account."
Zhang Min who was already sleepy agreed immediately and turned to go.But each of his arms was caught by his older brothers and he was unceremoniously plopped onto the couch.The eldest Zhang Ye then said,"We need to buy things for your new room as well.Like furniture etc.We will wait here till you are done packing and then help you carry all the shopping you do."
Zhang Fei agreed with that while Zhang Min was shocked.What was wrong with his brothers!They were being so cooperative with a little sister!Zhang Min cursed his fate that he was born a brother,if he had been a little girl,he would have been pampered all his life by his brothers instead of being bullied by them!
Meanwhile Shi Ai: ".."
