Chapter 314 - 310: Making Soup for Him After Washing Hands
——————
Xie Jingzi left the back alley in a fit of rage, her anger far from subsided. But, as she was about to reach the entrance of her own alley, she still hooked up the corners of her mouth, revealing a habitual, shallow smile—
Third Sister-in-law had said that no matter how angry or annoyed she was, she shouldn’t take it out in front of the elders. After all, Dad and Mom were indeed getting on in years. She quite agreed with Third Sister-in-law on this point.
Third Sister-in-law also said that if she couldn’t handle things herself, she should talk to her first. With this understanding, Xie Jingzi could still face her family with a smile on her face—
Before she left the house in the morning, she knew that Third Brother had taken Third Sister-in-law back to his military unit, so no matter how anxious she was, she could only wait for Third Sister-in-law to return before discussing it.
However, as soon as she stepped into the house, she found the family shop in a complete mess, and both her elderly father and mother were sitting on wooden stools, visibly upset, "Dad, Mom, what’s going on?"
It was almost six o’clock, and she didn’t see her fifth brother and the children, only her parents.
As she spoke, she rushed to her mother’s side, only to see Xie Tiesheng soothing Zhou Xiuhua.
"It’s nothing, just your Third Sister-in-law’s mother causing a scene again." Zhou Xiuhua waved her hand, "Don’t mention it to your Third Sister-in-law when she gets back. Now it seems, Ni was right not to acknowledge her mother from the very beginning!"
Zhou Xiuhua was fuming, but for the sake of her own health and the worried look on her husband’s face, she kept reminding herself: don’t get angry, do not lose your temper. The Yan Family only had one senseless woman, everything else was still alright.
