Chapter 33: The Youngest Sister
Not all apologies can be accepted calmly by the victims.

Some apologies will only make people so angry that they want to kill the other person with a knife. After listening to that kind of apology, you will only think: Is this something a human can say?
Li Haiyang really likes Chen Fan's editorials. He can always draw different conclusions from ordinary life and make the victims have something to say:
Okay, okay, it’s all my fault, okay?

I've already apologized, what else do you want from me?
Let bygones be bygones.

Don't take it personally, just let it go.

I was just joking, who knew you couldn't take it, I'm sorry.

I admit that I was wrong in this matter, but you were the first one...

I was wrong, but I did it for your own good.

I do this because I love you.

I have already admitted my mistake, why are you still holding on to it?

……

Look at these words, they are all familiar, and they were all said by the party at fault.

Some are perfunctory; some are shirking responsibility; some are shifting the blame; some are saying that you are not generous enough...

Those who said these words had no intention of sincerely apologizing.

Li Haiyang has been often offended in recent years because of his Mediterranean hairstyle, and the most common response he gets is: I was just joking, don't take it seriously.

It was light and just lifted up.

What kind of apology is this?
Now that he saw such an article, Li Haiyang naturally would not refuse and made a decision directly. It will be published in the newspaper tomorrow and the royalties will remain the same as before.

Ten yuan per thousand words, Chen Fan earned another 86 yuan.

After leaving the newspaper office, Chen Fan found a tricycle and headed straight for Liulichang.

Xu Jinqiu is coming to my house tomorrow, and I have to prepare a gift. I should have prepared it when I confessed my love to her, but Xu Jinqiu forced me to do so, and I don't have time to prepare it.

……

The next day, around nine in the morning.

Xu Jinqiu was about to go out, but Li Xiuzhen still held her daughter's hand and repeatedly gave her instructions.

There are many things a girl needs to pay attention to when she goes to a man's house for the first time. She is afraid that her daughter will be silly and get tricked.

For example, after you arrive at your future mother-in-law's home, you need to be a little observant and do some work appropriately, but you must never compete with your future mother-in-law for work.

That makes the girl look cheap.

For example, don’t act too intimate with your partner in front of your elders.

Doing so would appear disrespectful and might even make the other parent feel that their son no longer belongs to them, and therefore they would feel lost or sad.

After giving a lot of instructions, Xu Jinqiu was allowed to go out.

When I arrived at the entrance of the dance troupe on a tricycle, Chen Fan was already waiting there, accompanied by a little girl of about five or six years old, who was chubby and cute.

This should be Chen Yi.

As soon as the tricycle stopped, Chen Fan came over. Chen Yi also came over and looked at him curiously, his big eyes fluttering. Suddenly he asked, "Are you the sister-in-law?"

Xu Jinqiu rolled his eyes at Chen Fan, it must have been this guy who taught him.

Letting Chen Fan carry the things, Xu Jinqiu picked up the little girl and said, "I'm your brother's girlfriend. Are you Xiao Yi'er? You're so cute."

The little girl was shy and blushed as she said, "Well, I'm Chen Yi. Sister-in-law, you're so beautiful. When I grow up, I want to be as beautiful as you."

"You're so cute. You'll definitely be prettier than me when you grow up."

Xu Jinqiu kissed the girl and suddenly felt something was wrong, so she asked, "Xiao Yi'er, why do you call me sister-in-law?"

Chen Fan has no other brothers.

You should call her sister-in-law.

The little girl counted on her fingers and said, "My brother said that he will marry three wives in the future. You are the first one, so you are the eldest sister-in-law. There will be the second and third sister-in-law in the future."

"Cough cough..."

Chen Fan almost choked on his saliva. When did he say this?
I’m afraid I can’t keep this sister anymore.

He's here specifically to sabotage things.

Xu Jinqiu's eyes were like knives. She glared at Chen Fan and coaxed the little girl, "Xiao Yi'er, do you remember what your brother said?"

"My brother told mom."

The little girl nodded and imitated Chen Fan's tone: "I will marry three wives in the future. When you go out, you need someone to support you on both sides, and someone to carry your bag must follow you." Xu Jinqiu smiled, it turned out to be a joke.

However, he shouldn't have such thoughts and must cut them off: "Comrade Chen Fan is indeed ambitious. How about I introduce two more sisters to you?"

Chen Fan also remembered what happened that day. It was Zhou Shuhua who came over to find fault first and said: Xiaoying and the others who went to the party all have jobs, it would be embarrassing for you to go.

As a result, my mother was very angry, and I said this to comfort her.

So he told the whole story, and Chen Fan could see that Xu Jinqiu was either really angry or was just joking, but he still had to have the right attitude.

"Wife, do you know how miserable I was? I had no job, and even when I rejected someone, their parents would come up and be sarcastic."

"That Zhou Shuhua really went too far."

Xu Jinqiu frowned secretly. They were from the same courtyard, so how could they slap someone in the face? This was too undignified. "Find a chance and I'll help you fight back."

"My wife is awesome, let's go home."

"Lead the way!"

Xu Jinqiu followed him for two steps, and suddenly felt something was wrong: "Chen Fan, you are deliberately playing pitiful here, and trying to trick me again. Yuanyuan is right, you have eight hundred tricks in your body."

"Wife, I have never told a lie."

Chen Fan smiled and reached out to pinch the tip of the girl's nose: "As the old saying goes, fools have good fortune. I just like the way you are stupid."

"Screw you."

Xu Jinqiu kicked him, hugged her youngest sister, and quickened her pace.

It’s only a few steps away to Courtyard No. 46.

"Xiao Fan, you brought your partner back?"

"Oh, this girl is so pretty. Xiaofan has found a treasure."

……

As soon as I entered the yard, many people greeted me.

While Chen Fan was greeting the neighbors, he was introducing someone to Xu Jinqiu, although there was a high probability that she would not be able to remember the person's name the moment she turned around.

But Xu Jinqiu will definitely come often in the future, so I still have to introduce her to him. After a few introductions, she will become familiar with him. This is how all the wives who married into the courtyard came here.

Crossing the hanging flower gate is the central courtyard. Guan Yuemei and Chen Min, mother and daughter, are already waiting at the door.

When they saw Xu Jinqiu, both mother and daughter's eyes lit up.

This girl is so pretty!
She is tall, pretty and has an excellent temperament. Especially today, the girl wore light makeup, which made her look even more broken.

Even though they are all women, they couldn't help but feel pity for the man.

Guan Yuemei quickly compared herself with Zhou Xiaoying. Whether in appearance, figure, or temperament, she was much better than Zhou Xiaoying.

Not any worse than Ashima.

I never thought that what my son boasted about would actually come true.

After welcoming Xu Jinqiu into the house, Guan Yuemei was already planning to bring her future daughter-in-law to show off in front of Zhou Shuhua and make her angry to death.

Feeling the enthusiasm of her future mother-in-law and elder sister-in-law, Xu Jinqiu secretly breathed a sigh of relief. Just as Chen Fan said, his home was simple and his family members were easy to get along with.

After entering the house, Xu Jinqiu took a quick look around.

The furnishings in the house were quite simple, but it was kept very tidy. There were cakes, candies and fruit plates on the table. It could be felt that the Chen family valued themselves very much.

"Auntie, this is my first time here, and I don't know what you like. I didn't buy you anything good, so I hope you don't mind." Xu Jinqiu gestured to Chen Fan to bring the gift over.

"My child, I am happy that you are here. You don't have to bring anything next time."

Guan Yuemei happily accepted the gift and said, "I came here today just to get to know the place. There's just a wall between the two sides. You'll eat at home from now on."

Chen Fan said, "Mom, Qiu'er and I have agreed that we will take the college entrance examination together. You will have lunch and dinner at my house from now on, and then review with me after that."

"Then our family will have two college students, right?" Guan Yuemei grinned with joy.

"Auntie, I probably won't pass the exam. I mainly accompany him to review. Just like Chen Fan said, I'm really stupid, but it's also good. Stupid people have good luck."

Before she finished her words, Guan Yuemei's eyes shot towards her son like a knife.

Chen Min's eyes also changed, and she reached out and grabbed her brother's ear, "Hey man, do you usually bully girls like this?"
Only Chen Fan was confused. Who am I, where am I, and what am I doing?
The pain from his ear made him even more confused. Why didn't he realize before that this girl also had a dark side? I was flirting with you, and you were accusing me of something bad.

What's even more outrageous is that Xu Jinqiu still looked innocent and said, "Auntie, sister, did I say something wrong?"
