Xiao Linshuang, however, hadn't thought that much into it. She merely felt that these two older sisters were speaking up for her. Although she felt somewhat undeserving, she was nonetheless delighted to have someone helping her. She straightened her back and her face also revealed a smug smile, just like Xia Zheng's.
"Exactly. Don't believe it? Weren't you just fawning over my two sisters—ahem, maids? Why are you silent now? Keep talking. Oh right, Xia He, bring me those copper coins. The young lady here is craving sweets, and I only have silver notes on me—I really don't have any copper coins to buy sweets with."
Xia He couldn't help but laugh inwardly. She respectfully bent down and, with hands outstretched, presented the four copper coins to Xiao Linshuang, making sure to add, "Please accept these, Young Lady."
