Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio

Little Sister Su, who had been laughing happily, grew subdued with the change in atmosphere. Confusion and unease settled around the family like a heavy cloak. Little Sister Su was about to speak up when Sixth Sister stopped her.

“Shut up.”

“Why?” Little Sister Su asked.

Sixth Sister secretly rolled her eyes. “You’re so dumb. Can’t you see that Second

Sister is angry? Someone is in trouble.”

“Is she angry with Fourth Sister and Fifth Sister?” Little Sister Su could not stand being called dumb. She was just as smart as Sixth Sister!

“Who else would she be angry with?” To be fair, Sixth Sister was also angry with her Fourth and Fifth Sisters.

Upon her return home, she learned how her Third Sister and Big Sister had gone to their school to deliver food, money, and even a new bicycle. Yet, neither Fourth nor Fifth Sister came home on any of the Sundays since Su Wen visited with her delivery. Even Little Sister Su found their actions appalling.

Her Fourth and Fifth Sisters had gone too far in their selfishness this time.

While she and dull Little Sister Su could not go to school because they had no money, her Fourth and Fifth Sisters had the time of their lives, hiding in school and refusing to come home.

Big Sister, Second Sister, and Third Sister did their best to save up and think of ways to support Fourth Sister and Fifth Sister. As soon as they heard from Third Sister that their money troubles were a thing of the past, the two gayly continued their studies without sparing a thought for those at home.

It was obvious that they despised Big Sister.

Even the mild-tempered Su Xiu was disappointed in them, let alone Sixth Sister, whose temper could not compare to her older sister.

Su Qing, the second eldest, was a loyal supporter of Su Wen and felt she had to take some responsibility for the education of their younger sisters.

Since Su Wen had not said anything, it was up to her to clear the air and address the elephant in the room.

On the other hand, Su Xiu had been looking forward to Su Xue and Fifth Sister’s return home for the holidays. She was heartbroken when the two of them did not return.

Su Qing had been annoyed with her two sisters before, but it was only now that her anger erupted. Su Wen delivered a bicycle to Su Xue and Fifth Sister so they could come home more easily, but they snubbed her gift and chose to continue their wilful behavior.

Su Qing’s anger had been brewing for weeks, only waiting for an impetus to begin the chain reaction leading to an explosion.

Wen to worry, so she kept her thoughts and feelings to herself. Although life was better now, it also brought new challenges. Their Big Sister was under plenty of pressure to succeed, and obstacles were constantly appearing in her path. She did need to deal with Fourth Sister and Fifth Sister’s attitudes.

One was always looking for trouble, while the other constantly schemed for her benefit and no one else’s. Su Wen did not need them to add to her plate.

Su Xue and Fifth Sister hovered awkwardly where they stood. Everyone was ignoring them.

Su Xiu, the easiest to talk to, went to wash the mosquito net, so there was no one they could talk to or ask for help speaking up on their behalf.

“Fourth Sister…” Fifth Sister’s eyes stung as she bit her lips. She felt wronged, sad, but above all else, guilty. It was as if she were drowning in guilt. Crying softly, she sniffled, “Fourth Sister, I know I was wrong.”

“It’s not your fault. You wanted to come back, but I didn’t let you,” Su Xue interjected, cocking her chin stubbornly.

Su Xue had considered returning home on the day their eldest sister delivered the bicycle to them. However, it always led back to her memories of Big Sister’s mean and selfish ways. Whenever she recalled those memories, her desire to study grew, whittling down any thoughts she might have had about returning home.

Despite their improved situation, Su Xue Imew Fifth Sister was unhappy living the way they were.

“It’s my fault. I forced Fifth Sister to stay with me.” How could Su Xue allow her Fifth Sister to take responsibility for their absence from home with a clear conscience? In the end, hadn’t she been the one who lacked the courage to return home? She could not even compare with Sixth Sister or Little Sister Su. Her Sixth Sister even cared for their aunt’s children!

Even more impressive was when she started school.. She had only been eight!
