Mu Xiaoxiao knew that Mama Yin was trying to show concern for her and felt touched, but she did not want Yin Shaojie to be scolded either. She said hastily, “No, I was the one who was playing around with him. Okay, I’ll go blow dry my hair now.”

“Mm, I’ll help you with it,” Mama Yin replied.

“Eh? It’s okay, I can do it on my—” Before she could finish her words, Mama Yin had already led her by the hand and was walking towards the stairs.

Yin Shaojie could only follow behind.

Upon arriving at the living room, Mama Yin got a helper to bring the hairdryer. Sitting Xiaoxiao on the sofa, she ran her fingers through Xiaoxiao’s satin-like hair.

“Xiaoxiao, your hair is very pretty,” Mama Yin said.

Mu Xiaoxiao sat there obediently and smiled. “Mama Yin, don’t praise me, or I’ll become proud.”

“So what if you are? Our Xiaoxiao is good at everything. You should be proud.” She had watched Xiaoxiao grow up and was well acquainted with her personality.

Because the hairdryer was blowing by her ear, the conversation was not convenient and Xiaoxiao thus remained silent.

After drying her hair, Mama Yin continued to brush Xiaoxiao’s hair with her fingers. Suddenly, she asked a helper to bring a comb.

“It’s okay, it’s already dry,” Mu Xiaoxiao said. She did not know what was going on and thought that she wanted to brush her hair for her.

Mama Yin smiled and placed a hand on her shoulder to stop her from rising. “I suddenly feel like braiding your hair. Humor Mama Yin.”

Mu Xiaoxiao nodded and sat down obediently.

The helper brought a comb over.

Mama Yin started by brushing her hair straight. Her hair was dark, shiny, and cascaded down like a beautiful waterfall.

She said as she braided Xiaoxiao’s hair, “I often braided your hair when you were young. Do you still remember that?”

“I do. My hair always turns out pretty after you braided it for me. When I went to kindergarten, everyone was envious of me.” Mu Xiaoxiao smiled like a flower as she remembered the past.

Mama Yin smiled as she said, “You were just like a jade doll when you were little. You were so cute and you had a likeable personality. There was practically no one who didn’t like you and I wished I had a daughter like you.”

Even though she did not have a daughter like Xiaoxiao, she could at least have Xiaoxiao as a daughter in law.

“Mama Yin, listen, I’ve already called you Mama Yin. I’ve thought of you as my second mom ever since I was little,” Mu said sweetly.

Yin Shaojie smiled as he looked at her and said, “Then you should marry into our family soon.”

Mama Yin nodded and added, “Yes, yes, yes. After her birthday this year, Xiaoxiao will be seventeen, and she’ll be eighteen in another year. You should get married when Xiaoxiao turns eighteen.”

Mama Yin smiled even more delightedly at the mention of marriage, as though she could not wait for Xiaoxiao to marry into the family.

She finished braiding Mu Xiaoxiao’s hair and got her to turn around.

Mama Yin nodded satisfactorily at the pretty hairstyle and said, “I’ll do Xiaoxiao’s hair when she gets married. She’ll look beautiful when she puts the veil on.”

Mu Xiaoxiao lowered her head. She was silent for a while before stammering, “Mama Yin… Don’t you think… getting married at eighteen… is a little too early?”

“No, no. Your relationship is so good right now. Eighteen is the perfect age. We’ll hold the wedding overseas and find a pretty castle for the event. Don’t you girls like that kind of thing?” said Mama Yin.
