Manbao had handed out all the gifts she had purchased, and even the youngest, the fifth and sixth brothers, received gifts: a pair of particularly attractive tiger-head shoes and some toys.
The entire Zhou Family was as happy as if it were the New Year.
Junior Ms. Qian and Zhou Xi soon returned with Datou and Daya. Manbao immediately threw herself into Junior Ms. Qian's arms, "Sister-in-law, I've missed you so much."
Zhou Xi couldn't help but tap her forehead and jest, "You only miss your sister-in-law, not your elder sister?"
"Of course, I do, elder sister. Have you been taking the medicine Fourth Brother brought you properly?"
Zhou Xi blushed slightly and nodded, asking softly, "Does that medicine really work?"
"Absolutely, it's a secret formula from the palace."
Whether it works or not, the patient herself has to believe in its efficacy.
Zhou Xi's eyes brightened. Although Fourth Brother had said the same thing, it somehow seemed more credible coming from Manbao.
