Chapter 21: My sister is much prettier in person

Si Si finished introducing all the ingredients and looked at the recording time on the phone. It took almost ten minutes.

She pressed the stop button and took the phone off the stand.

She patiently taught the two children how to unlock the phone and the recording and playback functions of the phone, which allowed them to leave with the phone and the shopping cart full of ingredients.

The two children appeared in their room pushing a shopping cart, which shocked Qi Mohan and Imperial Concubine Yun again.

Imperial Concubine Yun pointed to the cart full of strange things and asked: “Qing’er, Mujin, what is this?”

Xiao Qing and Xiao Mujin went to get the phone on the top of the shopping cart at the same time. In the end, Xiao Mujin was one step faster and successfully got the phone.

“Grandma, uncle, this time my beautiful sister has changed the way she talks to you.”

While Xiao Mujin was talking, he had already unlocked the screen of the mobile phone and immediately clicked on the video recorded by Si Si.

To let his grandmother and uncle see clearly, the little guy quickly climbed onto the chair and pointed the screen of the mobile phone in the direction of the two elders.

A playful and cute girl appeared in the rectangular box, which was about the size of an adult’s palm.

Si Si was wearing a one-piece home suit with a cartoon rabbit pattern, combining light blue and white. Her hair was casually tied into a ponytail behind her head, and she looked lively.

A familiar voice came from the phone: “Imperial Concubine Yun, Qi Mohan, I prepared some ingredients for you. Now, I will explain to you how to eat these ingredients.”

Imperial Concubine Yun rubbed her eyes vigorously and stared at the small screen in Xiao Mujin’s hand. At this time, she had completely ignored every word Si Si said.

“Mujin, Qing’er, is this Miss Si?”

Seeing the look in her grandmother’s eyes, she liked her beautiful sister. Xiao Qing instantly felt a sense of honor.

“Grandma, this is the beautiful sister. What do you think? Qing’er and brother didn’t lie when we said that the sister is beautiful, right?”

Holding the mobile phone, Xiao Mujin quickly added: “My sister is much more beautiful than what she looks like on the phone!”

After listening to the explanation of the two children, Imperial Concubine Yun was completely sure that the girl in the square box was Si Si.

She excitedly pulled Qi Mohan’s arm: “Mohan, look at this girl, she is so beautiful, no wonder these two children always call her beautiful sister.”

“In my opinion, there has never been a girl as beautiful as Miss Si in our entire Daqi Kingdom.”

Imperial Concubine Yun was getting more and more excited as she talked. The more she looked at Si Si, the more she liked her.

Qi Mohan was in a completely different state.

At first, when he saw the girl in the rectangular box, he was indeed surprised for a moment, but after he confirmed from the voice and the introduction of the two little ones that this was Si Si who provided him with great help, his cheeks instantly turned red.

He was even a little embarrassed to look directly at the rectangular box and tried his best to turn his head away and not look at Si Si in the box.

But his mother didn’t let him go, forced him to look, and kept praising the girl’s beauty.

Qi Mohan’s face was red to his neck. This feeling was something he had never experienced before. Inexplicably, he also had an unexplained throbbing in his heart.

Imperial Concubine Yun didn’t let him go, and continued to point at Si Si and said: “Look at this girl’s eyebrows and eyes, in my opinion, there is no flaw in her, and her skin is so delicate… I couldn’t compare to her when I was young.”

Qi Mohan could only nod in cooperation with his mother. He was embarrassed to look at the screen, but he couldn’t help but take a look with his peripheral vision.

As for the long list of words, Si Si said in the video, the mother and son didn’t listen to it at all.

Imperial Concubine Yun’s lips curved into a smile as she stared at Si Si. Seeing that she had said so many comments, but her son didn’t say a word, she was a little unhappy.

“Mohan, you are too picky. If you don’t like a beautiful girl like Si Si, you may never get a wife in your life.”

“I didn’t say I don’t like her.” Qi Mohan was absent-minded. So when Imperial Concubine Yun said that, he answered without thinking.

Imperial Concubine Yun’s eyes lit up instantly: “Mohan, you mean, you like Miss Si Si?”

Qi Mohan reacted at this time, and he was trapped by his mother’s words.

“Mother, what are you thinking? This son and Miss Si Si are from two different worlds. Even if I like her, we can’t be together. Don’t think about that nonsense anymore.”

As soon as these words came out, it was like pouring a basin of cold water on Imperial Concubine Yun’s head.

The smile on Imperial Concubine Yun’s face froze there, and her eyes no longer had the light she had when she first saw Si Si.

“Yes, no matter how much we like Miss Si Si, we can’t meet her in reality. I am really confused.”

Although she said so, on the surface, Imperial Concubine Yun had already seen the reality, but she was still unhappy from the bottom of her heart.

Whether it was Si Si’s character or her appearance, the young ladies of the Daqi Kingdom didn’t have them, which made her like her very much.

Imperial Concubine Yun even told herself in her heart that if this young lady could become her daughter-in-law, she would spoil her to the sky.

It was a pity that she must face the reality……

After Qi Mohan said that sentence to let his mother face reality, he inexplicably felt a sense of loss in his heart.

But he still couldn’t figure out why he had such emotions.

To prevent his mother from continuing to think about it, Qi Mohan reminded her: “Mother, the purpose of this video sent by Miss Si Si is to teach us how to eat the things in the push cart.”

“This son doesn’t know much about cooking, so I need mother to take more care of it.”

After Qi Mohan reminded her, Imperial Concubine Yun realized that she had just put her focus in the wrong place.

“Okay, I’ll learn these things.” Imperial Concubine Yun said, trying to put away the regret and dissatisfaction in her heart, and stared at the screen of her mobile phone seriously.

As a result, she watched it for a while, and the video stopped at the end.

Imperial Concubine Yun was dumbfounded. It was all her fault. She was only interested in the beauty of the girl and missed the important content.

“Qing’er, Mujin, can you play back Miss Si Si’s words like the recorder?”

“Grandma, do you want to watch it again?” Xiao Mujin asked back aggrievedly.

He wanted to show off, so he held up the phone to show his uncle and grandmother, but he didn’t expect that his arms would be numb after holding the phone for so long.

Now, the content recorded by the beautiful sister finally finished playing, but it seemed that his grandmother wanted to watch it again.

Xiao Mujin’s little face collapsed in worry.

Seeing Xiao Mujin’s expression, Imperial Concubine Yun’s heart sank: “Mujin, is it true that this thing can only be seen once?”

  1. Grandma Yun is adorable, but her thoughts about matchmaking so early on when their kingdom is devastated feels out of place.
