"Ying Jie, what are you doing?"
Xiu didn't even realize when she started addressing Ying as a sister. Perhaps it was because Ying was older than her or perhaps, it was because of the comfortable aura around her. However, one thing was certain that Xiu had called her sister on instinct without realizing it herself.
"Oh, I'm making some tea. Would you like some?" asked Ying as she looked at Xiu who followed her.
"Which tea is it?" inquired Xiu as she tried to discern from the scent that was lingering in the air.
"Oolong tea," answered Ying and added, "Zizi and Yi both like to drink tea after their meals." She was trying to tell Xiu about the different habits of members of this family. "Can you bring some cake from the pantry? Weiwei can't drink tea without her favorite pastries." Xiu nodded and immediately turned towards the door of the huge pantry that was located at the side of the kitchen.
