Chapter 95: The Acting Is Truly Brilliant

The next day, Qiao Mu headed to Elderly Lady Qiao’s estate with a round little bun, Qiao Lin, in tow.
These past few days, Qiao Mu had fed her sister quite a bit of food, so the weight of the little bun in her hand had gotten heavier.
Little Qiao Lin was led in a gallop by her sister. Every now and then, she would clap her hands and jump twice while softly calling, “Sister, sister.”
Based on her giddy expression, one could tell she wanted her sister to run even faster, wishing for nothing more than to fly there.
Currently, the sky was still dimly lit. Qiao Mu had purposefully dragged her younger sister and ran to the Qiao Compound at first light, pounding on the door with loud bangs upon their arrival.
The doorkeeper drowsily came to open the door and was at a loss when he saw the two little girls in front of him.
He naturally recognized them as the daughters of the eldest branch. However, they have never been favored by Elderly Lady Qiao, so he donned on an impolite attitude upon seeing them coming here to disturb their dreams so early in the morning.
“Father had my sister and me come to visit Grandmother.” Qiao Mu’s face was cold, and she was about to step through the entrance with the little bun in tow.
The doorkeeper hastily blocked them and exclaimed with a face of impatience, “Hold on, I must have someone go and announce you!”
Qiao Mu shook the little bun in her hand, and Miss Qiao Lin immediately recalled what her sister told her on the way here.
“Lin’er, when we arrive at Grandmother’s home, simply cry and don’t say anything. We will cry our way back, and after we’re done crying, Sister will give you meat buns to eat when we get home!”
The thought of meat buns caused Qiao Lin to drool. She blinked. She blinked again. Then, her wails erupted, her cries piercing and tears flowing from her eyes.
“Grandmother! Grandmother!!!” the small child cried at the top of her lungs again and again, the tearful note in her voice heart-wrenchingly pitiful.
Qiao Mu suddenly felt like her sister was truly talented in acting. Look at this act! Tears on demand—that was quite amazing.
Currently, although the sky was not entirely lit yet, some of the villagers who were in a rush to head to their fields had already woken up. When they passed by, their eyes curiously drifted to the entrance of the Qiao Compound.
The doorkeeper was a bit stunned. He did not expect this child to start crying just like that, and his hand, which was blocking the two children, froze in mid-air.
“Granddaughter learned that Grandmother was sick, so we came to visit. Since Grandmother doesn’t like it and won’t let us enter, then Granddaughter will come and visit another day,” Qiao Mu icily recited her lines before picking up the ceaselessly sobbing Xiao Lin’er, turning around, and dashing off.
The doorkeeper was dumbstruck on the spot.
“Hey, Little Ancestor, can’t you allow me to send someone inside to notify them?”
Entrusted with her sister’s order, Little Qiao Lin really cried the whole way home. Qiao Mu had known long ago that the little bun might have a petite figure, but her lungs were not petite at all. Her wailing was truly the center of everyone’s attention on their journey back. Her little face was miserable and pitiful from the sobbing, causing the villagers to all ask each other.
Upon learning that the sisters had visited Elderly Lady Qiao to give her their regards out of goodwill but ended up being sent back, their faces were astounded and bewildered.
It appears the rumors that arose when Qiao Mu’s family was divided off were really true, this elderly lady from the Qiao Family was very spiteful indeed.
Qiao Mu returned home with the ceaselessly sobbing Qiao Lin and ran into Qiao Zhongbang, who was about to leave on time. Wei Ziqin had also just finished washing the stove. When she saw her younger daughter crying so hard, she hastily walked up to pacify her.
When Qiao Zhongbang asked for the reason, embarrassment pervaded his face.
“I’m afraid we can’t enter Grandmother’s home from now on,” Qiao Mu calmly stated. “Do we still need to visit and pay our respects to Grandmother from time to time?”
