Chapter 144: Hopeful Expectations_3

Qian Xiaoyu had grown accustomed to Qian Yixiu's occasional startling remarks, but these words still made her burst into laughter until she was short of breath. Qian Manxia, with her face red from anger, stood up and gave her a few more swats on the bottom, scolding, "What nonsense are you spouting? Just wait until I tell Mother on you, she'll pinch you hard."

Feeling dejected, Qian Yixiu left the hut, feeling like the meddlesome Fa Hai. But she truly, truly couldn't bear the thought of her little aunt suffering even the slightest hardship. She hoped that after her little aunt got married, she would be able to live a comfortable and leisurely life. It didn't have to be one of great riches, but it must be a contented one without major upheaval.

This was also her wish for her own future.
