Yun Bixue had not even noticed that her sleeves were soaked. She reckoned that it happened when she was shoving her younger sister away.
Ji Qiongxin was chopping up the vegetables by the side as she laughed, "Bixue, that child, Limo, loves you dearly. He's not as attentive towards his father and I." With a sigh, she added, "He spends all his efforts on his wife. He isn't even worried that his mother would be jealous." Ji Qiongxin's words were loaded with a teasing undertone.
Xie Limo scrubbed away all the fish scales and gently chuckled. "Mother, you have Father pampering you. Do you still need your son? I naturally have to indulge in my wife."
Ji Qiongxin's eyes were brimming with a radiant smile. "Yes, I know you pamper your wife. Your mother does too."
This year was the year that she felt happiest. She had extricated herself from the many rules in the Xie family, and could relax and celebrate the New Year with her family. She was on cloud nine.
