Bai Susu also sensed that something was slightly amiss, for the elder sister-in-law was not close to her; even if she came to visit the sick, she would merely take a look, leave a gift, and then be on her way.
But this time, she engaged in idle chit-chat filled with senseless flattery, and Bai Susu really found it hard to keep up the act.
"Is there anything else you came for this time, sister-in-law?" Bai Susu cut to the chase.

"Sister-in-law, we're all family here, and I live quite modestly when it comes to food, clothing, and daily needs. Anything you fancy is yours for the taking—why speak of borrowing?"
Bai Susu politely remarked.
