"Are we still getting a divorce?"
Her rough husband threatened her while gripping her waist. She had no choice but to beg for mercy, "No, we're not getting a divorce, we'r...
At this moment, Qin Zheng had already backed the car to the living room doorway, and his older sister had gone back and forth twice to carry all the luggage into the trunk before slamming the car door shut.
Qin Xiang'e was still standing there dumbfounded.
Qin Zheng called out, "Auntie! What are you standing there for? Let's go!"
Qin Xiang'e suddenly had a change of heart.
If she really goes back like this, won't it look bad for her in the village?
Thinking it over, she called out, "Zhengzi, why don't we go back tomorrow? It's late today, and I'm worried it will be dark when you come back, and it won't be safe for you to drive!"
"It's alright."
Qin Zheng smiled.
The nanny followed them into the living room and urged, "Sister Xiang'e, hurry up and get in the car. If you delay, Brother Zhengzi will be back a little later. Isn't it more unsafe to drive?"
Qin Xiang'e was speechless.
Okay.
She was now in a bind, with no choice but to accept her fate. She sighed, walked out, and followed Qin Zheng into the car.
The car quickly drove out of the courtyard.
The nanny breathed a sigh of relief, "She's finally gone. If she hadn't left, I would have been driven crazy."
With one less person in the house, she, the housekeeper, would have one less person to wash clothes for and one less room to clean. She couldn't wait for Qin Xiang'e to go back to her hometown.
The main problem is that Qin Xiang'e is a really awkward person.
Now that they've come to the city with their nephew, why don't they just enjoy life instead of constantly thinking about this and that, making everyone feel awkward?
"Big sister, you're talking too much," Ye Yun said gently, touching Xiao Chuqi's face.
The nanny's face froze, and she quickly apologized, "I'm sorry, Yun, look at my mouth, I speak without thinking. I won't do it again."
"..."
Ye Yun nodded slightly.
The nanny gave an embarrassed smile and quickly said, "Um... I still have chicken soup simmering in the kitchen, I'll go check it out!"
After saying that, she ran away quickly.
The older woman watching the child also came over. Without mentioning Qin Xiang'e, she lowered her voice and asked softly, "Sister, should we take Xiao Chuqi upstairs to her room to sleep?"
Ye Yun said no need.
The older sister agreed without saying anything, and picked up the clothes that Xiao Chuqi had changed out of yesterday and went into the laundry room.
Things that shouldn't be said shouldn't be said.
They're family, so they can have all sorts of disagreements. But these outsiders are gossiping about the family; they're practically asking for trouble.
The eldest sister who does housework is also an example.
He had previously acted out a scene with the boss's wife to deceive the boss's daughter, and then he thought he was the best friend in the world to the boss's wife, and his actions became arrogant.
...
Meanwhile, the news of Qin Xiang'e returning to her hometown spread throughout Heishui Village the very next day.
Li Xiuying was the first to run to Old Qin's house.
Parked not far from Old Qin's house, Li Xiuying stealthily peeked into the yard like a thief.
Upon seeing that it was indeed Qin Xiang'e in the courtyard, she scratched the back of her head, completely baffled.
Didn't they say Ye Yun is pregnant again?
Why did Qin Xiang'e come back instead?
Could it be that Ye Yun lost her baby?
Otherwise, why would Qin Xiang'e come back if she wasn't there serving her?
Upon realizing this possibility, Li Xiuying was startled and turned to run home.
With a loud bang, Li Xiuying burst open the courtyard gate, startling Guo Lili, who was sitting in the courtyard washing her face and reading.
Seeing Li Xiuying's anxious and flustered expression, Guo Lili couldn't help but ask, "Mom, what are you doing?"
"Oh no!"
Li Xiuying slapped her thigh and said anxiously, "Lili, your sister-in-law has lost her baby. I need to pack some things and sneak off to see her!"
"What?! My sister-in-law lost her baby?!"
Upon hearing this, Guo Lili also stood up abruptly, causing the books in front of her to fall to the ground.
She grabbed Li Xiuying's hand. "Mother, who told you that?"
"Do we even need to listen to anyone's opinion? Qin Xiang'e is back. If your sister-in-law were perfectly fine, why would she come back? Now that she's back, it's because your sister-in-law doesn't need her anymore!"
"ah?"
"Oh, I'm not talking to you anymore! I'm going to borrow some eggs, and I'll sneak off to the county early tomorrow morning to take a look!" Li Xiuying said, pushing her away and hurriedly walking out with her basket.
Guo Lili scratched the back of her head. Her sister-in-law was so healthy, how could she have lost her baby?
wrong.
She pondered Li Xiuying's words carefully, then suddenly realized what she meant. She grabbed Li Xiuying, who was about to rush out, and said with a smile, "Mother, you're overthinking it. Qin Xiang'e's return is definitely not because my sister-in-law had an accident."
Li Xiuying looked bewildered. "Huh?"
“My sister-in-law has two nannies,” Guo Lili said with a smile. “You forgot what I told you before? My sister-in-law’s father hired two nannies, one to take care of the children and one to take care of my sister-in-law. Qin Xiang’e must have come back because she was useless there!”
"Besides, if my sister-in-law really lost her baby, shouldn't she, as her aunt, stay there to take care of her?"
Li Xiuying opened her mouth.
That seems to make sense...
Her arm, which was holding the basket, gradually drooped down, and for a moment, she didn't know whether to feel fortunate or disappointed.
