"Let see what’s inside, I never intended to take advantage of our daughter..." Saying this, Lin Xiaohua tied the bag tightly and smiled sheepishly at her husband, "Actually, you see, the older sister-in-law is quite nice, huh?"
"Those years, you were too blinded by foolishness to see the good in others," Zhao Yushui sighed, "Anyhow, we both weren’t good before, but now that we’re at this age, we can’t be reckless anymore, don’t you agree?"
"That’s for sure..." Lin Xiaohua nodded repeatedly, "With everything that’s happened, I’ve learned who truly cares for . If I were to be foolish again, I would be worse than a pig or dog. Don’t worry, even if you don’t remind , I’ll treat our parents well, and get along well with eldest brother, eldest sister-in-law, and several sisters as well as brother-in-laws."
"Hmm." Zhao Yushui responded, turning his head toward the car window, saying nothing more.
While the couple talked, people in the car kept glancing over; carrying so many gifts in this era was quite conspicuous.
Lin Xiaohua hugged the bag a little tighter.
"Bumpkins!" the middle-aged woman sitting next to them muttered disdainfully, causing Zhao Yushui to reflexively glance at his wife, his eyes filled with worry.
However, Lin Xiaohua didn’t even glance at the woman, she just loosened her grip on the bag slightly.
Zhao Yushui secretly breathed a sigh of relief. His wife was indeed different from before; back then she would have jumped up to argue with the other woman!
He knew he was sowhat cowardly by nature but thought that avoiding trouble was best, especially since the elder brother brought them over. If anything happened, it would be a hassle for him.
His brother wasn’t familiar with anyone here, so inevitably, it would trouble the younger sister again, and they had already imposed on her enough. He really didn’t want to be a burden on her anymore.
As they got off the bus, just as the couple stood up, the woman next to them rushed ahead—but the place she went to ended up being the sa as theirs!
Standing at the Liu Family entrance, the woman turned and frowned at them: "Who are you here for?"
"We’re here to see my daughter." Lin Xiaohua said and reached out to knock on the door.
The woman’s face revealed sudden understanding: "So, you’re the parents of Zhenqiang’s wife?"
"Hmm." Not knowing their intentions, Lin Xiaohua could only acknowledge.
At that mont, the door opened, and Liu Zhenfen’s face appeared at the entrance. Seeing the woman in front, she imdiately smiled broadly: "Auntie, why are you here?"
The woman reached out to tousle Liu Zhenfen’s hair: "Fen’er, the way you say it sounds like I’m not welco here?"
"How could that be? I’m always hoping for your visit, Auntie, co in quickly, seeing you will surely make my mom very happy..." Liu Zhenfen said while stepping aside to let the woman in.
"Didn’t see us?" Lin Xiaohua glanced at her husband, uncertainly asking.
"Sigh!" Zhao Yushui heaved a deep sigh and walked in—it was obvious as day that they had seen them, pretending otherwise would be blindness indeed, clearly, they weren’t welcod!
Zhao Qiyan was squatting in the bathroom doing laundry, hearing voices, she stood up, turned around, and saw Zhao Yushui and Lin Xiaohua entering the door, she rushed to greet them: "Dad, Mom, why did you co?"
"Your uncle ca over for sothing, so he brought us along..." Lin Xiaohua looked at her daughter with concern, "You need more rest now, lest you suffer later if you catch a chronic illness."
"Huh!" Liu Zhenfen snorted coldly, looking at Lin Xiaohua with a hint of sarcasm, "Auntie, we’re all family, do you really need to pretend like this?"
"What kind of talk is that?" Having already endured enough, Lin Xiaohua’s voice involuntarily rose, "Qiyan had such a hard ti with her health before, was that a facade?"
"Young girl, why be so caustic with your words, rember that you yourself are a girl too, and one day you’ll have to go through these things, by then, think back to your words today and you’ll surely regret it!"
"You’re such a shaless woman, whose house do you think you’re in, to act so out of line?" the woman referred to as Auntie by Liu Zhenfen said, looking at Aunt Liu, "Sister, she’s bullying your daughter, and you’re not reacting at all?"
"Qiyan, take your parents to see the child..." Glancing at the clock on the wall, Aunt Liu said, "Zhenqiang will be back soon, hurry up and prepare lunch."
The implication being, let their parents see the child then leave promptly? Zhao Qiyan incredulously gazed at her mother-in-law, she had lowered herself so much, yet still couldn’t win her parents a al at the Liu Family house?
