Chapter 184 Daily life
Chapter 184 Daily life
"Melanie!"
Just when Leon was puzzled, a somewhat annoyed shout came from the direction of the lobby of Happy Apartment.
Anna ran out of the front door quickly, grabbed Melanie by the back of her neck, and caught the mischievous sister who failed to escape in time. Then, she put one hand on her waist, grabbed her ear and said angrily:
"Don't talk nonsense! Miss Amy just moved next door and came to visit the neighbors. How can she be your sister-in-law?"
Amy?
After hearing Anna's scolding, Leon thought for a moment and then remembered that it was the eldest lady of Charles Department Store. Before he knew that she was the daughter of the owner of Charles Department Store, he had recommended her to move to Happy Apartment.
But later she was kidnapped by the Massenet family, and the plan of moving here was never followed up. After I went to Rose Manor and rescued her, I thought she would not consider moving again, but I didn't expect that she actually moved here after all.
"Anna."
As the old man stared at him, he approached the fence cautiously. Then, with his "brother syndrome" breaking out, Leon couldn't help but plead for Melanie, who was being pulled and screaming:
"She's still young, and probably doesn't quite understand what those words mean. Just teach her a lesson and let her know that she can't say anything careless. There's no need to educate her too harshly... Oh, look, her ears are red."
"Yes, Sister Anna, please let go. Melanie doesn't understand anything."
Seeing Leon speak, William beside him also nodded his head and joined in seriously:
"She just told me that after my eldest brother and sister Amy get married, she wants me to go with her to look through the garbage cans around to see if we can find a nephew or niece first. She doesn't even know where children come from, so I guess she just said it casually."
"..."
That's true...
Compared with Leon's futile persuasion, William's support was very effective. Anna's anger, which was not very strong to begin with, was instantly extinguished, and she unconsciously let go of Melanie's ear.
"Let's forget about it this time."
After rubbing Melanie's slightly red ears, Anna looked at her sister who was drooping her head and looking dejected. She couldn't help but squat down, patting her back and explaining softly:
"It's not that I want to control you in everything, but your sister Amy hasn't gotten married yet. If these words are heard by some people who like to gossip, it might cause trouble for her, so don't say anything careless, understand?"
"profound……"
After responding, Melanie said unwillingly:
"But Sister Amy is really suitable. Why can't she marry here?"
"This one……"
Hearing Melanie's question, Anna couldn't help but glance at Ang, and then she started to coax him:
"Whether or not to marry is up to Miss Amy. This matter still depends on what your sister Amy thinks..."
"Then I'll go ask her now! See if she's willing to marry me!"
"Hey, stop!"
After pulling Melanie by the back of her neck again and bringing her back from the excited "proposal", Anna vaguely felt something was wrong and couldn't help but raise her eyebrows and questioned:
"What's wrong with you today? Why do you insist on making Miss Amy your sister-in-law?"
"I……"
"Maybe it's because Sister Amy is very generous."
William, like a little adult, put his hands behind his back and, relying on his understanding of his twin sister's train of thought, seriously inferred:
"The fat-chested sister who left home this morning, although she was also very pretty, only bought each of us a piece of candy as a gift, while Sister Amy gave Melanie a new dress when she came to visit for the first time.
I guess she thought that her eldest brother was going to marry someone anyway, so instead of marrying that fat-chested sister, it would be better for him to marry the more generous sister Amy, so that she could get more gifts. "
"..."
"Me! That's not what I thought!"
Listening to Sister Anna's increasingly heavy breathing, Melanie, who had been stabbed in the back, realized that something was wrong and quickly struggled to explain:
"He's talking nonsense! I just have a better relationship with sister Amy! It's not because of any gift!"
"She lied."
After receiving the inquiring gazes from Leon and Anna, William betrayed his sister without any psychological burden and directly confessed:
"When we were digging earthworms just now, she told me that big brother seemed to prefer those sisters with fat breasts. He was worried that sister Amy would not be able to compete with him, so he forced me to steal a bowl of papaya soup that sister Anna drank and send it to her every day to see if I could make her fatter." "..."
After hearing this, Leon and Anna couldn't help but stiffen slightly. They felt a little embarrassed and couldn't help but look at each other.
You actually drink papaya soup every day?
No wonder you chose Miss Veronica!
After exchanging a surprised and embarrassed look, the two adults did not speak, but turned their eyes to Melanie at the same time.
"You! You're talking nonsense!"
Sensing the impending great crisis from the silence of her elder brother and sister Anna, Melanie could not help but struggle and tried her best to save herself:
"I didn't say those words!"
"You did."
William said seriously:
"And you promised me that if the papaya soup I stole helped Sister Amy become our sister-in-law, you would lend me your favorite doll to play with for two days."
When he said this, William paused for a moment, then commented with disdain:
"How childish! I'm no longer at the age of liking dolls. How could I possibly be moved by such an offer? If you had used the tin frog as an offer, maybe I would have kept it a secret for you."
"Then tell me!"
Knowing that she was doomed, Melanie simply stopped denying it and stared at him angrily:
"If you want to play with the tin frog, I can go and borrow it for you. Why are you betraying me?"
"How can borrowing be better than owning your own?"
William asked back seriously:
"If I help you steal Sister Anna's papaya soup, I will definitely get beaten in the end, and I can only play with the tin frog for a few days. But if I report you, Sister Anna will not only not beat me, but she may even buy me a frog directly. What would you choose?"
"..."
"Don't worry, this beating won't be in vain. When I buy my tin frog back, I can lend it to you to play with for two days."
……
"knock knock"
After knocking on the door next door, a baby-faced girl who had lost to the Tin Frog, carrying a large bag full of things, smiled brightly at Leon.
"Mr. Lyon, I'm moving in to be your neighbor!"
"welcome."
Although he was somewhat curious about the other party's plan, out of politeness, Leon did not ask her why she came to Happy Apartment. Instead, he invited her into the house first, and then looked at the bag in her hand.
"these are……"
"Some little gifts!"
The baby-faced girl blinked her big watery eyes, spread out the things in her bag, and showed them with a smile:
“Don’t worry, they are all very common things. The most expensive one is this coat suitable for winter… Mr. Leon! When you saved me last time, your coat was scratched by the roses in Rose Manor. I can always return one to you, right?
As for the rest, this is perfume for sister Anna. I made the scent myself. It didn't cost me much except for the ingredients. There are also a few small toys for William and Melanie... By the way, where are they? I heard their footsteps coming up the stairs just now, didn't I? "
After hearing Amy's question, Leon's expression stiffened slightly. He glanced at the closed door and then explained:
"Um... maybe they are doing their homework in the back room? Homework in schools nowadays is more... um..."
"I! I was wrong!"
A very familiar cry was heard, interrupting Leon's nonsense.
"Sister Amy's breasts are not small! Not small at all! You really don't need to drink the papaya soup! Sister Anna, you don't need to drink it either! Ouch! Stop hitting me! Wuwuwu, I really know I was wrong!"
