Capítulo 787: Chapter 529: Ca Knocking
Second watch.
———-
“With our fourth and second sister coming back, the house will be even more lively.” Chuxia thought for a mont and looked at her mother-in-law, “Mom, after work tomorrow, I plan to go visit the regint. Luan Dajiang is in his first year of service and can’t co ho. I want to see how he’s feeling.”
“Alright, go ahead.” Lin Yanqiu nodded, “If it weren’t worrying about affecting his developnt, I’d let him co ho for New Year.”
Chuxia quickly said, “Mom, I understand. They’re all comrades. If everyone celebrates together except him, who will hang out with him in the future?”
“You, child, speak with such ease…” Lin Yanqiu affectionately wrapped her arm around her shoulder, “Co on, wash your hands, let’s eat.”
“Madam…” Aunt Liu walked over, “Lady Jiang, Qin Xiangyi, is here. She wants to see you.”
“She’s here?” Lin Yanqiu sneered, “Now she thinks of finding ? Guess, is she here to settle scores or to flatter ?”
Chuxia laughed and blinked her big eyes, “Mom, which do you hope it is?”
“If she’s here to settle scores, I’ll look up to her a bit more. If she’s here to flatter …” Lin Yanqiu sneered, “Then she honestly makes disgusted.”
Lin Yanqiu herself has integrity, so naturally, she hates spineless people.
“Madam, should I let her in?” Aunt Liu asked again.
“Let her in.” Lin Yanqiu said while dragging Chuxia to sit on the couch, “When she arrives, don’t get up. Hmph, how she treated before, now it’s her turn to experience it.”
“No problem.” Chuxia had no ntal burden about this. To her, only those who are good to her and her family deserve respect. If soone always tries to step on her family, she doesn’t mind stepping on them when they’re down.
Compared to their last eting, Qin Xiangyi had lost quite so weight, and looked very unwell. After entering the room, she dazedly looked around, first greeting Old Madam Zhou, then walked up to Lin Yanqiu and abruptly knelt down.
This action surprised Lin Yanqiu, and her reflex was to help Qin Xiangyi up. When she touched her arm, she rembered who was kneeling, so she drew back her hand, “You’re here, no need for such a big ceremony?”
“Qiu’er, I was wrong, all these years I’ve targeted you, it was my own ignorance and arrogance, I’m asking you, you in your generosity, don’t hold it against , okay?”
The “Qiu’er” and the pitiful look made Chuxia’s skin crawl. This person, truly knew how to pick herself up and let things go.
“Don’t call that, you don’t have the right.” Lin Yanqiu looked at her expressionlessly, “Besides, at my age now, being called that disgusts .”
“Yanqiu, I know you’re still mad at . Hit …” Qin Xiangyi said as she reached for Lin Yanqiu’s hand, “Hit my face, or anywhere is fine. I swear I won’t complain!”
Lin Yanqiu looked at her with disdain: “Qin Xiangyi, you’ve always randomly targeted with your issues, I’ve never thought there was anything worth discussing. So you don’t have to act like this in front of today.”
“I truly know my mistakes, I’m petty and ambitious, I’m begging you, forgive .”
Seeing her like this, Lin Yanqiu felt a bit bored, so she waved her hand, “I originally have nothing to hold against you, you can leave.”
“Promise one thing, and I’ll leave imdiately.” Qin Xiangyi knelt and shuffled forward, “Promise , I’m begging you.”
“You haven’t said anything, how can I promise?” Lin Yanqiu rolled her eyes, “Unless you’re asking to kill and commit arson, then I must agree too?”
“I wouldn’t dare ask you to do such things, I’m just begging you to talk to Jiang Xinyu, ask him not to divorce , I guarantee I won’t ever be jealous of you, not to ntion embarrass you.”
Yanqiu, for the sake of our good childhood friendship, just help this once, okay? I’m fifty years old now, if we divorce, my life will be over. You don’t want to do sothing everyone would regret, do you?”
“Threatening ?” Lin Yanqiu looked amusedly at her, “At this point, you still resort to this trick, Qin Xiangyi, truly just like a dog eating its own feces.”
“I…” Qin Xiangyi worked hard to suppress her anger, forcing a smile, “How would I dare threaten you? I’m just explaining my current situation. If my son hadn’t stopped , I’d really have taken sleeping pills last night.”
“Don’t say such things, if you really wanted to take them, would your son have had a chance to stop you?” Lin Yanqiu looked at her disdainfully, “You say you even use these things to use your children, do you have any sha? When soone truly wants to commit suicide, would they go around promoting it?”
“I…” Qin Xiangyi was blocked and couldn’t say a word. Yes, if she wasn’t bluffing, how could her son have discovered her intentions.
Actually, she mainly did it for her husband to see. Unfortunately, after her husband saw it, he didn’t say a word and just hid in the study. If not for her son, maybe she really would have taken the pills.
At the mont her husband went into the study, she was utterly hopeless. If a man is indifferent to your life and death, what does that signify?
After hesitating for a day, she finally plucked up the courage to co to the Zhou family. If she knew she’d have this day, she wouldn’t have embarrassed Lin Yanqiu during the Zhou family’s difficult tis.
“Qin Xiangyi, I can refrain from kicking you when you’re down for now, but I can’t possibly shake hands and make peace with you. I know too well what kind of person you are.
Think about all these years. When have I not felt liver pain after eting you? You’ve known for so many years; you should know my character, so there’s no need for to elaborate, right?”
Yes, she certainly knew. Lin Yanqiu has always been a person who distinguishes kindness and resentnt clearly, and asking her to be considerate now was completely inviting humiliation.
However, thinking of her husband forcing her to divorce, she had no choice but to swallow her pride, “Yanqiu, give a chance, just one, okay?”
“If you get dragged out, you’ll lose all your face.” Lin Yanqiu said, pointing to the dining table, “We’re having dinner. Do you really not plan to leave?”
“You go ahead and eat. I’ll sit on the sofa and wait for you.” Qin Xiangyi wiped the tears from the corner of her eyes, “Yanqiu, I’m truly at the end of my rope. I beg you.”
“Fine, you can reflect here. We’re going to eat.” Lin Yanqiu said as she pulled up her daughter-in-law, “Co on, no need to stay with her.”
Chuxia was at a loss. When did she say she wanted to accompany Qin Xiangyi?
Throughout the process, apart from Chuxia watching, others were busy with their own matters and didn’t get involved. Old Madam Zhou and Old Master Zhou completely ignored Qin Xiangyi.
After dinner, Qin Xiangyi was still sitting there, which made Old Madam Zhou unhappy. She sat across from Qin Xiangyi, tapping her cane, “Looks like you take for a dead person.”
“No, no, no…” Qin Xiangyi waved her hands repeatedly, “Aunt, I’m truly at a dead end. Otherwise, I wouldn’t shalessly beg Yanqiu.
Everyone makes mistakes. So people don’t change, but I’m willing to change now. Please let Yanqiu give a chance, okay?
Anyway, Jiang Xinyu used to like Yanqiu. I’m the one who snatched him from Yanqiu, and over the years, he has never forgotten her.
As long as Yanqiu cos forward, he will certainly listen to her advice and live well with . Aunt, I beg you, please let Yanqiu help .”
“If you were my mother-in-law, what would you do?” Chuxia asked.
“I…” Qin Xiangyi hesitated before forcing herself to say, “Of course, forgive the other person, give them a bright path forward. It’s better to resolve enemies than to leave them as such.”
“You talk a big ga, but unfortunately, your words don’t match your heart.” Chuxia yawned, “I’m sleepy. Aren’t you planning to go ho and sleep?”
“Yanqiu, you’re spoiling your daughter-in-law too much. At this rate, it’s going to be you who suffers in the future.” Qin Xiangyi looked sincerely at Lin Yanqiu, “You have to believe . I’m really doing this for your own good.”
“For my good, by slandering my daughter-in-law, creating conflicts between us, so you can benefit from the situation, right?” Lin Yanqiu glanced at her, “I’ve said all that needs to be said. Handle your own matters, I won’t interfere.” Saying this, she went straight upstairs, “Mom, Dad, I’m tired, going up to rest for a bit.”
“Commander Zhou!” Qin Xiangyi looked at Zhou Jingping pleadingly, “Please spare my Xinyu. As long as you don’t punish him, he will certainly live well with .
I promise, I will never go against Yanqiu again, and I will also speak well of her everywhere, letting everyone know how magnanimous she is.
Moreover, if anyone deliberately targets the Zhou family, I will inform you at the first opportunity. You should know that others treat us as enemies, and they definitely won’t hide their intentions from .”
“Jiang Xinyu’s issues are real and not because I deliberately targeted him. Begging is useless.” Zhou Jingping shrugged, “I admit, if you hadn’t gone against my wife, I wouldn’t have involved myself in the investigation of this case. Every cup and platter has its preordained place, and you must drink the bitter wine you brewed yourself; no one can replace you.”
“Do you have to be so ruthless?” Qin Xiangyi said as she stood up, “If you don’t agree, I’ll kill myself in front of your door, and let everyone scold your Zhou family as heartless and unrighteous. Before I die, I will curse the Zhou family to die without descendants. If there’s a next life, I will never let you live well.”
Chuxia heard this and was speechless, thinking, if soft words don’t work, she’ll resort to shaless ones…
Had Zhou Jingping not said he would handle it, Zhou Mikang would have already kicked Qin Xiangyi out. Seeing Zhou Jingping sitting calmly there, he glanced at his father disapprovingly.
