"Miss, is there anyone outside the courtyard gate?" Qiu'er's hands holding Shu Xin's arm couldn't help but exert a slight force, and asked in a low voice with some fear.

Shu Xin glanced at Qiu'er, smiled lightly, and paused: "Don't be afraid. ”

When the two of them were about to step into the door, they only heard a slight sound behind them, Qiu'er turned her head to look at the gate of the courtyard suddenly, and shouted in surprise: "Young Master Kai?" ”

Shu Kai? The twelfth ranked young master of the Shu family, the younger brother of the original Shu Xin's mother? Shu Xin frowned in confusion, slowly turned his head, and looked at the small figure standing at the gate of the courtyard that looked a little cramped.

Shu Kai is ten years old this year, dressed in a bright blue hooked brocade dress, which can be seen to have an excellent texture, and his face with a little baby fat is extremely cute and handsome, and his big eyes are very comfortable, a full cute Zhengtai.

"That ......" Shu Kai grabbed his sleeve a little nervously, blinked his eyes, and then mustered up the courage to raise his head and look directly at Shu Xin: "You...... Okay? ”

Shu Xin likes a qiē cute thing, a cute person.

Shu Kai's eyes are very clear, not as bright as Shu Xin's timid eyes shine like stars, with a touch of worry and apprehension at the moment, Shu Xin loves him when he sees him.

"Did you come to see me?" Shu Xin's heart was soft, in Yuan Shuxin's memory, she didn't say a word to this younger brother, she could only look at him from a distance every time, I don't know why Luo Liuxi always deliberately separated them and didn't let them have any contact.

Yuan Shuxin has always been very envious of Shu Kai, with the care and love of his parents, he is happy and happy every day.

Shu Kai's eyes widened slightly, looking at Shu Xin with some disbelief and surprise, in fact, he has always wanted to play with his own sister, but his mother didn't let him, and the third sister was introverted and taciturn, and he was also afraid that she would ignore her when he talked to her.

"Ding Dong!"

At this moment, the familiar system prompt sound sounded in Shu Xin's mind.

The indifferent voice of the system crow sounded: the hidden task was triggered: "The troubles of the little boy." ”

Objective: Solve a problem of the twelve sons of the Shu family.

Time to complete: 48 hours.

Quest completion reward: A Good Guy card.

Mission Failure Penalty: None.

"Hidden mission?" Shu Xin asked rhetorically in his heart: "What is the good person card?" ”

"It's a reward." The system crow replied indifferently, with slight disdain.

"I know it's a reward." Shu Xin twitched his eyebrows: "I'm asking what it is and what is it for?" Shu Xin felt that the system crow could arouse the anger in his heart every time.

"Anyway, the system rewards are all good things, and when you complete the task and get the reward, you will naturally know what it is, and now you don't have the permission to understand." The system crow said arrogantly.

Shu Xin snorted silently, only to see Shu Kai nodding, looking at Shu Xin's eyes full of worry: "I heard that you are seriously ill, and I can't help but come to see you." ”

"Thank you." A heartfelt smile.

Shu Kai looked stunned again, he had seen the third sister many times from afar before, but he had never seen her smile, he didn't expect the third sister to be so good-looking when she smiled.

"I ......" Shu Kai hesitated and looked at Shu Xin expectantly: "Can I call you the third sister?" ”

"Huh!" Shu Xin smiled lightly and said softly: "I was originally your third sister!" If you want to call me sister, I'll be very happy. ”

"Really?" Shu Kai's eyes lit up.

"yes, really." Shu Xin nodded affirmatively.

"Third sister." Shu Kai called sweetly.

"Hey!" Comfortably and gently, he paused and said, "I'm fine, Brother Kai, don't worry, go back early, lest my mother can't see you worrying." ”

"Third sister...... Shu Kai's eyes dimmed again: "Mother, she...... Actually, I also want to come to see the third sister, but today...... Something ...... a little bit of a thing."

"Hmm." Shu Xin knew that this was Shu Kai's white lie to comfort her.

What child doesn't want to be loved by their parents? Whether it is the original comfort or the current comfort, they have all longed for it, but with the passage of time, when all expectations have turned into disappointment, comfort no longer longs for it, no longer hopes.

You remember that in the years in the orphanage, Shu Xin always thought that maybe her parents would not want her because they had to do it, and one day, they would come to her to bring her home, but until she went to high school, and then graduated from college and joined the work, Shu Xin no longer expected the family affection in her dreams.

She has grown up, and it is difficult for her to grow up alone, if her parents come to her and want to recognize her home, she will not recognize them, she will not go back, if their family conditions are very poor, why should she take that burden on herself? They didn't raise her, and she didn't want to raise them?

If their family conditions are very good, she doesn't bother to have them, she won't recognize them, she won't go back, she has grown up, she has joined the work, she can already support herself.

Those childhood expectations have turned into nothingness for her, she knows that her thoughts about family affection are a little distorted, but she has grown up with such difficulty, and has experienced too much human warmth, she feels that she has no psychology completely distorted and dark, and it is very good to take revenge on society.

Although he didn't become a pillar, he didn't become a pest, did he?

Yuan Shuxin still had strong expectations for family affection before the matter of Master Wang and Luohu's illness, but the reality knocked her little heart into powder.

Luo Liuxi hates comfort, even very disgusted, and usually sees her never have a good face.

Shu Xin has been indifferent to illness or anything since she was a child, and now that Shu Xin is seriously ill, it is impossible for her to come to see her, even if she does, it is not because she cares, but because she is sick, whether she will die, and when she will die.

Luo Liuxi is so indifferent and ruthless to Shuxin.

"Third sister, don't complain about your mother." After a little silence, Shu Kai said again.

Shu Kai was so sensible that it was sad, Shu Xin smiled and nodded, and looked at Shu Kai seriously: "I don't complain." "If you want to complain, it is also Yuan Shuxin's resentment, and besides, Yuan Shuxin is the body of the Virgin, even if she is still there, she will not complain.

Shu Kai breathed a sigh of relief and raised a smile: "The third sister, I'll go back first, you have a good rest, I will find a way to ask my father to ask the third sister to ask for a doctor." ”

"Okay." Shu Xin nodded: "But, don't be too reluctant, wait until your sixth sister and seventh sister are married, don't make my father and mother angry because of me." ”

Shu Kai thought for a while and nodded: "Okay." ”

Seeing Shu Kai's small figure disappear into the night, Shu Xin was about to step into the door, when a young woman appeared outside the courtyard gate with a maid.

The woman is wearing a powder blue pleated Ruyi moon skirt, which sets off her soft figure, and her appearance is delicate and moving.

Shu Xin knew at this moment who Yuan Shuxin's beauty was inherited, but unlike Yuan Shuxin's delicate, cowardly and weak beauty, Luo Liuxi's beauty carried a kind of arrogance and self-confidence.

She glanced at Shu Xin lightly with coldness, then looked in the direction where Shu Kai left, and was silent for a long time before slowly turning her head to look at Shu Xin.
