Chapter 508: I Understand, I Really Do
Little Ningning happily counted on her little fingers, "I finished all my homework. These days I’ve been playing at Grandma Jia’s house. Grandma Jia is so nice, every day she takes me and little brother Xiao Long, sometimes telling us stories, sometimes playing with sand with us, and Aunt Xue even bought us toys. I like playing with Grandma Jia and also like playing with little brother Xiao Long."
Lin Chuxia raised her eyebrows slightly, giving Qin Juan an imperceptible glance.
She knew of Jia Liang’s affection for her elder sister, and the elder sister had also made it clear that she did not want to delay Jia Liang, maintaining a distance from Jia Family’s mother and son. Even if Aunt Jia proactively offered to help during the weekends, the elder sister seldom left Ningning with Aunt Jia.
Qin Juan explained somewhat helplessly, "It poured that day, and Ningning had a high fever in the middle of the night. Jia Liang helped me take her to the hospital. After that, Aunt Jia looked after her for a couple of days. Since then, the child refuses to go to the shop with me and keeps clamoring to visit Aunt Jia," she said, finding herself in a bind with such a little traitor.
Besides, she couldn’t just force her not to go; that would make her seem too heartless and unforgiving.
Lin Chuxia quickly nodded, "I understand, I get it all."
Qin Juan: "..."
Somehow, she felt that ’I get it all’ from her sister-in-law was less comforting than ’I don’t understand’.
Forget it, let the sister-in-law think whatever she wants.
"Let’s first go to the department store; I need to buy some things."
She had gone to the Bun Shop early in the morning. The shop had been quite busy these days; only after it calmed down a bit did she take the child with her on the bus back home, still empty-handed.
