Red braised pork, sweet and sour pork ribs, pot chicken, and eggplant cooked with minced meat would make for a table full of highly nutritious food.

While she knew the food served in the school cafeteria would not be excessively oily, the selection certainly left much to be desired. Su Wen had felt sorry for Su Xue and Fifth Sister’s poor food options back then, so she instructed Su Xiu to deliver steamed cakes and a bit of spending money to them.

She wanted them to eat properly and not starve themselves just to save a few yuan.

Su Wen had not thought much about why Su Xue and Fifth Sister had not come home till then because she had been very busy. Moreover, Su Wen did not know Su Xue and Fifth Sister well since they had never interacted much. Only through interaction would bonds develop between people.

It was the same for Sixth Sister, whom she had asked Su Qing to pick up. Before, when everything she knew was still part of a novel, Su Wen had felt that Sixth Sister was a pitiful little girl and little else.

Initially, Su Wen feared she would not get along with Sixth Sister, but it all changed once she met her for herself.

Su Wen felt a sense of intimacy when she saw Sixth Sister, which made her register the latter as someone precious to her from the outset.

However, Su Xue and Fifth Sister did not give her the same feeling as Sixth Sister when she first returned. Perhaps it was her disappointment that resulted in the difference she felt. When she first transmigrated, she hoped to change her sisters’ impression of her. She went so far as to try and curry their favor, only to be disappointed by their lackluster response.

Ah! It would not be wrong to describe her as petty.

“Big Sister…” Su Xiu saw the answer to her question reflected in Su Wen’s eyes. Slowly, her eyes turned red. She held Su Wen’s hands like a kitten begging for forgiveness after doing something it was not supposed to, and said, “Big Sister… I know they’re no good, but… but…”

Su Xiu hoped to persuade Su Wen to give Su Xue and Fifth Sister a chance, but she did not know how to phrase her words.

She could not force her older sister to do something she was reluctant to do while taking advantage of her care and kindness.

But they were a family! All they had was one another. With their parents gone, they had to stand united and support one another as best they could.

“Fine!” Su Wen rolled her eyes, giving Su Xiu a long-suffering sigh that belied her frustration. “How old are you? Why are you still crying crocodile tears to get what you want?”

Unexpectedly, Su Xiu cried even harder. “Big Sister, I… It’s my fault. I’m the one in the wrong.”

“Nonsense! You’ve done nothing wrong; you always do your best in everything you do.” Su Wen would never forget the day Su Xiu returned from working in the fields when she first transmigrated. She looked worn from exhaustion, from hours laboring under the sun, yet she did her best to look unaffected, even as she plucked leeches off her legs.

No one was more hardworking or honest than Su Xiu in their family.

“I know what you’re trying to say.” Su Wen could not bear to see Su Xiu so sad and said, “You’re overthinking things. I’m neither angry nor do I not care for our sisters. Bonds are cultivated, much like a person’s feelings. It is no different from Little Sister Su and me. I used to dislike her, but now I like her very much. It’s not as serious as you think.”

“Really?” Su Xiu’s tears turned into laughter.

“Of course,” Su Wen nodded without hesitation, tapping her nose helplessly.

“You’re still young; leave all the worrying to an old woman like me. Besides, Su Xue and Fifth Sister aren’t children anymore. You don’t need to worry about them so much.”

“But I’m their Third Sister!”

“I know you are, but I also know you aren’t as ambitious as Fourth Sister.” Su

Xiu was unlike her other sisters. She was honest, whereas the rest all had their own thoughts and ideas. Fifth Sister’s nature was similar to Su Xiu’s.

Thankfully, she had Su Xue to guide her. So long as she listened to Su Xue, Fifth Sister would not be hoodwinked or led astray.

The same could be said of Sixth Sister and Little Sister Su, with the former guiding the latter since it was obvious who was more intelligent between them..
