Su Yihe had never paid much attention to his sister's teeth before, so he was a little uncertain now. "They should be... whiter?"
Ernie was a little disappointed.
Su Qiao walked over, pinched her chin, and examined her for a couple of seconds before nodding firmly. "They really are much whiter. Brush them a few more times tomorrow, and they should be completely white."
The whitening effect was so good that even Su Qiao herself was a little surprised. She was also tempted to brush them two more times.
"Mm."
Ernie's face flushed slightly.
First, it was because Su Qiao was pinching her chin like this, making her look as though she had been accosted by some lecher...
Second, she usually didn't get along with Su Qiao, yet now she had used Su Qiao's things.
Blushing, she said softly, "Thank you."
Su Qiao showed no sign of embarrassment. She naturally patted Ernie's shoulder like a good brother.
"Don't be so formal. We're sisters. No matter what, you can't write two different Su characters with one stroke."
Ernie's face reddened even more. "I... I won't glare at you anymore."
"And I won't secretly curse you anymore."
Su Qiao thought the little girl was rather amusing and said with a chuckle, "Then I won't sneak off with the purses you embroider to trade for candy anymore either."
Ernie's eyes immediately widened. "No wonder! I kept wondering why the purses I embroidered were always disappearing. So you were taking them to the peddler to exchange for candy!"

Su Qiao felt a little awkward.
She really wanted to slap herself across the mouth.
That's what you get for having such a loose tongue!
