Chapter 546 Xu Qiuye Takes Her Mother to School
The rural tourism business in Xujia Village is booming right now. Xu Shengcai and Xu Qiuye rushed back home on Sunday, too—their school isn’t far from home.
It’s only a two-hour train ride, and now Xu Qiuye is pregnant. Xu Shengcai was worried about his wife’s safety, so they came back this time to ask Mother Qiuye to go to the school to take care of Xu Qiuye.
Xu Shengcai and his wife don’t attend the same school, so it’s somewhat inconvenient to take care of her.
When the couple arrived, it was right at noon, and Xu Ren Guo had just come home from work. He was quite surprised to see them, "Why are you two not at school? What brought you back?
This isn’t a long holiday. It must’ve been quite the rush to come here and then go back," he said.
Xu Shengcai scratched his head, a bit embarrassed, and said, "Dad, I came back this time because I wanted Mom to do me a favor, to take care of my wife for a bit. My wife’s school is a bit far from mine, and I can’t visit her every day after school.
My wife’s belly is getting bigger and bigger. It won’t do if there’s no one to take care of her."
Upon hearing this, Xu Ren Guo was somewhat displeased, "Where’s your mom? Where did she go? Why can’t she take care of Qiuye?
Isn’t it supposed to be the mother-in-law’s job to take care of her daughter-in-law?" he asked.
Xu Shengcai awkwardly scratched his head, "My mom went to help my little sister take care of her two kids. But she did give me some money, saying it was for my mother-in-law to take care of Qiuye."
