Chapter 56: Cleaning

Bai Xiao led Xiaocui into the house, her heart filled with a pang of sourness.

This is Second Sister's home.

The exterior might look presentable, but the furniture inside is all old and chipped from years of use without any replacement, which is quite surprising considering her brother-in-law is a carpenter! He doesn't even make furniture for his own home.

Not to mention the musty smell in the house, coupled with a foul and murky odor. Plus, there are clothes piled up on the floor and a basin, clearly, Bai Ju was just about to do the laundry.

Bai Ju saw them and, feeling a bit embarrassed, pushed the items aside and hastily ushered Bai Xiao further inside.

"Come, into the back room, this is my brother-in-law He Weng, and this is my little sister Bai Xiao! Bai Mei from my brother-in-law's family."
