Chapter 983: Chapter 977: Going to Watch the Annual Fish Catching _1
The next day, Qin Xue naturally woke up. She stirred when the rooster crowed for the first ti outside but fell asleep again after turning over. By the ti she woke up again, it was broad daylight.
“Woke up? Co and eat.” Chu Molin saw his wife had awakened when he returned to their room, so he called her to get up and eat.
“Ok, where are mom and dad?” Qin Xue asked Chu Molin as she was dressing.
“They have gone off to do business.” Chu Molin had returned ho after helping his mother-in-law to open the shop, which ans he had already been out and returned.
“They work so hard, even in their old age.” Hearing this, Qin Xue was silent for a mont before speaking.
“They chose to do so, having sothing to do is also good. I saw that their business is good, I wanted to help them there, but Dad said they have hired a few lads to help so they didn’t need . So, he asked to return ho to see if there was anything that needed to be taken care of. Although it’s tiring this way, the money earned is better than farming, and farming is even more exhausting, right?” Chu Molin handed her a coat and spoke to her.
“You’re right, to each its own. Running a business is indeed much better than farming. As long as they are happy that’s all that matters. After all, when Xiao Yu and Lele finish studying, they probably won’t have to work so hard.” Qin Xue extended her arms for Chu Molin to help her put on her coat, then she smiled.
“Alright, let’s go out. Lele is cooking, Fang Xiu is looking after the three kids, so they are just missing you. Lele said Grandpa and Grandma will be coming ho later.” Chu Molin took his wife’s hand and left the room.
“Why didn’t you call earlier?” Qin Xue frowned, all the children were up and only she, an adult, was still sleeping. If people knew about it, they would surely laugh at her.
“We couldn’t, everyone in the family said to let you sleep a bit longer. How could I wake you?” Chu Molin recalled the words they said to him when he got up to help his father-in-law. They told him to keep his voice low and not to wake up Qin Xue. Then when he got ho, they said if Qin Xue hadn’t had enough sleep, just keep her als warm in the pot and wait for her to get up to eat. Chu Molin was left speechless, for this family cherished his wife more than he did.
Fortunately, he shared the sa thought, he wanted his wife to rest a bit more, so he was happy to hear that. Had it been soone else, they might not think the sa way.
“Hehe.” Qin Xue only laughed and said nothing in response.
“Sis, you are up! Co and eat. We are going to go out and play, do you want to co?” Qin Jiale asked her sister.
“Where are you going to play?” Qin Xue asked her sister after brushing her teeth.
“We’re going to watch the village catch the New Year’s fish.” Qin Jiale said, every year the village would catch fish to distribute. Before, due to the need to contribute labour points, people received fewer fish. But now, they could receive more, and it was a lively scene to watch. Her real intention was to let those who bad-mouthed her sister for favoring her own family over her husband’s family see that not only her sister ca ho for the New Year, but her brother-in-law also ca. At that ti, she wanted to see who dared still talked ill of her.
“Alright.” Qin Xue also wanted to see what this village was like. It was too dark when they arrived last night to see anything, so she decided to go and take a closer look today.
“Fantastic, Fang Xiu, do you want to co too?” After asking her sister, Qin Jiale asked Fang Xiu. It wouldn’t be good if they all left and Fang Xiu was the only one left at ho.
“Yeah, I’d like to see what your village is like, if it’s the sa as ours.” Fang Xiu agreed, jotting down her response with a pen and paper.
“Our village is generally quite good, except for a few rotten apples that spoil the atmosphere.” Thinking of those troublemakers in the village, Qin Jiale felt speechless. If it weren’t for them, her sister’s reputation wouldn’t have suffered so much.
