Chapter 24: We Are Husband and Wife, No Need to Be So Formal
What's going on?
Mi Jing and Shen Xing'er were dumbfounded simultaneously. They glanced at Tong Yao's cards spread out in front of her, then at Tong Yao, who was smiling like a fox. The former was grateful, while the latter was discontent.
The money in their pockets flew away; who could be content?
"Yaoyao, why didn't you say earlier? You got me all excited for nothing!" Shen Xing'er handed the not-yet-warm chips to Tong Yao, complaining unwillingly.
"You reacted too quickly; I didn't have time to speak." Tong Yao defended herself confidently.
"..."
Shen Xing'er was speechless, looking like a defeated rooster, losing all her previous excitement.
"Yaoyao, you have Thirteen Orphans, I need to give you another one." Mi Jing took a chip to give to Tong Yao voluntarily.
Tong Yao didn't hold back, accepting Mi Jing's chip, with a bright smile said, "Jing, Xing'er is right, Ling Xing isn't short of this money, so don't worry, play freely!"
Shen Lingxing was fourth among the siblings, so apart from Shen Xing'er, Xia Yu and Tong Yao called him Old Four.
Xia Yu is the wife of the eldest Gu Mosheng, Tong Yao is the wife of the second Su Jinchuan, Xing'er is the wife of the third Mu Bai. Logically, Mi Jing should call Xia Yu eldest sister-in-law and Tong Yao second sister-in-law, but they are all easygoing people, calling each other by their names.
