Shen Banzhong transmigrated into a novel. Her ignorant dutiful father and weak mother, plus three little gold flowers... Her eldest sister married an abusive man, second sister married an old man, ...
Xiuzhu blushed and said, "Actually, I'm not that great. My mother gave me her job, but my sisters-in-law are unhappy about it. Now, the house is a mess."
Shen Banxia fell silent again. Was there anything wrong with Xiuzhu? They had only just met, so why was she already talking about her family?
Xiuzhu continued, "Sister-in-law, I'm really in pain right now. I don't want to make things difficult for my family, but I can't let my mother down either. But now, my sisters-in-law want to divorce my brother. I can't wait any longer in that house. I'm thinking that after I get married, I'll return that job. I think that way, my sisters-in-law won't get divorced. I don't want my nephews and nieces to be without a mother."
As Shen Banxia cracked walnuts, she listened. Although she found the girl rather strange, she found these everyday family matters quite interesting.
Putting everything else aside, Xiuzhu's sisters-in-law are quite admirable; they dared to get divorced. Although I don't know if it was as a threat, the fact that they dared to say it is a skill in itself, isn't it?
Seeing Shen Banxia's amused expression, Xiuzhu felt a surge of resentment, but for the sake of the mission, she had no choice but to reveal her true purpose: "Sister-in-law, I heard from Fourth Brother that you need someone to help you out. What do you think of me?"
Shen Banxia laughed. Zhou Laosi really had a loose tongue and said everything. "I don't lack help here. Zhao Di is quite good."
The little girl is very sensible; she always brings me anything she finds in the mountains.
Human hearts are made of flesh and blood, and Shen Banxia still couldn't help but soften her heart when faced with a young girl.
Actually, she knew her purpose, but that doesn't mean she was wrong, does it?
Shen Banxia asked her to come to the clinic to help out, and she would be paid work points, but not as many as Zhou Mingqian used to.
But the little girl is only seven years old.
The villagers were initially dissatisfied, since everyone knew that this wasn't just about a few work points; it was about learning skills.
But Shen Banxia only accepted Zhou Zhaodi, and there was nothing they could do about it.
“Sister-in-law, Zhaodi is still young, and besides, I can give my work points to you.”
“No need,” Shen Banxia refused directly.
Xiuzhu hadn't expected that even after she had compromised so much, Shen Banxia could be so stubborn, refusing her so easily.
After watching the show for a while, Zhou Mingjiao came out and said, "Fourth Sister-in-law, don't go and beg Eldest Sister-in-law. She will never help."
"Zhou Mingjiao, you seem to have a lot of free time now. What? Aren't you busy with your wedding?"
A single, decisive blow.
Zhou Mingjiao's face was pale, her body swayed involuntarily, and tears welled up in her eyes. "Sister-in-law, I knew it was you. Can't you just ignore me? What did I do to offend you? I apologize to you, please let me go. This is the most important thing in my life."
"Little sister, look at what you're saying. I was just expressing my concern for you. Isn't this marriage something you both love?"
Zhou Mingjiao gritted her teeth inwardly, tears streaming down her face. "Sister-in-law, I... I really don't want to get married. I still have my dreams to fulfill."
Shen Banxia rolled her eyes. "It's okay, getting married won't affect your ideals."
Xiuzhu, standing to the side, couldn't bear to watch any longer. "Sister-in-law, although I don't know what happened, seeing how upset my little sister is, shouldn't we stop laughing at her? As her sister-in-law, we should at least help her out."
Hearing the heartache in Xiuzhu's voice, Shen Banxia was not surprised at all. She had figured it out now: whenever Zhou Mingjiao shed tears, it would always soften people's hearts.
As for why I am not affected, it is probably because I have awakened my memories of my past life, plus the script of light.
"It's your business if you're willing to help, but please don't drag me into it. Also, you should handle your own family matters properly."
Seeing Shen Banxia's indifferent attitude, Xiuzhu was momentarily stunned.
Why couldn't I control my sharp tongue?
I was supposed to be completing the task, so why did I end up speaking up for my future sister-in-law? A wave of regret washed over me.
Seeing this, Zhou Mingjiao was overjoyed, and her tears flowed even more. "Fourth Sister-in-law, thank you. But it's okay. I know that I did too many wrong things in the past, which made my eldest sister-in-law unhappy. It's understandable that she doesn't want to help."
Xiuzhu said, "Sister-in-law, I have to say something to you. It's good that you can admit your mistakes and correct them. No matter what, my younger sister is also our family. We can't just ignore her."
With that saintly air, she said, "Fine, if you want to manage it, then manage it yourself." After saying that, she got up and prepared to go home with Zhou Mingqian.
Xiuzhu was stunned again. How could she not control her sharp tongue again?
Seeing this, Zhou Mingjiao cried even harder, but the smile in her eyes was exactly as she had described in her dream.
Shen Banxia could see it all clearly; it was as if she had a split personality.
Xiuzhu stopped Shen Banxia, "Sister-in-law, we're all family. My little sister is already so sad, how can you be so heartless? Yes, I know your medical skills are excellent, and everyone is relying on you, but no matter what, you're still the eldest sister-in-law. They say an eldest sister-in-law is like a mother, how can you just leave her like this?"
Shen Banxia's fist hardened; where did this idiot come from?
In an instant, Shen Banxia didn't even want to say anything.
Xiuzhu thought she had convinced him and continued, "Sister-in-law, I heard from Fourth Brother that you've always been a person with a sharp tongue but a soft heart. I think someone like you could never let everyone down, right?"
Shen Banxia looked at her with a half-smile. Damn it, why is she reciting lines like an NPC?
"Yes, you're right. But you should set an example first. Zhou Mingjiao doesn't want to get married, right? Why don't you come and help her out?"
Xiuzhu was puzzled. "Sister-in-law, since my younger sister has come to you about this matter, only you can help. I really don't know what to do."
"No, no, no, you really underestimate yourself. Look, Zhou Mingjiao doesn't want to get married, so why don't you do it for her? That way, Zhao Zhiqing won't lose anything."
Xiuzhu's face drained of color instantly. "No, how can this be? Sister-in-law, this is utterly absurd! How could you say such a thing?"
Shen Banxia's smiling face vanished instantly. "Didn't you want to help? I gave you some ideas but you won't help. Tell me, are you just talking without understanding the situation?"
"But, but I'm going to marry Fourth Brother, Sister-in-law, you can't joke like that. I won't betray Fourth Brother."
Zhou Mingjiao almost wanted to punch someone. What kind of nonsense was this? She thought this new fourth sister-in-law was something else, but what happened? She was utterly pathetic.
If it weren't to verify what was said in the dream, she wouldn't have bothered looking for her; she doesn't seem very bright at all.
However, now that the verification was successful, she finally felt a little relieved.
