"Hello, Mr. Guo," said Xiao Kui, who was standing at the entrance of the Shen family's house with his men.
"You've all had a long day, so you should go home now. I'll have someone else come and relieve you."
“Okay, Mr. Guo, we’ll head back now,” Xiao Kui said.
"Okay, let's go back," Qiuqiu said.
"Bang, bang, bang."
Upon entering the villa, I saw the people my parents had arranged helping with the cleaning. However, since they had come suddenly, it was understandable that they hadn't been prepared.
“Brother-in-law, you’re here,” Qin Han said.
"Yeah, I'm here. Why aren't you resting? Aren't you going to school tomorrow?" Qiuqiu asked.
"Tomorrow is Saturday, and I'm off work. Brother-in-law, I'm so glad you came today. They were all bullying my sister and trying to take my things away."
"Xiao Han, don't worry, with your brother-in-law here, no one can bully your sister."
Mr. and Mrs. Shen have gone through too much today, and they are exhausted by all the trouble caused by these people. In the end, it was their son-in-law who had to resolve the situation, which is quite embarrassing.
“Why didn’t you rest? We’ve troubled you today, and we’re very grateful to you. Your aunt and I know we’re in a good position,” Mr. Shen said.
"Uncle, Aunt, Xiaoxue and I are getting married soon, so we're all family now. This is what I should do, so don't be so polite. From now on, your business is my business, and it's also the business of the Guo family."
"We didn't think this through enough. We originally thought it was all a good thing. Since everyone came, they were all supposed to be here to wish Xiaoxue and me a happy marriage, but we never expected this to happen," Qiuqiu sighed.
"Oh, child, don't say that. This is all because they were too greedy," Father Shen sighed.
“This time, your aunt and I have really thought it through. No matter what, we have to think about Xiaoxue.”
“In the past, I still had expectations for these people, thinking they were all family. I never expected that what happened today would make me truly understand.”
“What they did today was worse than what a stranger would do. I am truly heartbroken,” Mr. Shen sighed wearily.
“You’ve figured it out. You still had expectations of them, which is why you’re where you are today. But now it’s good that you’ve officially broken ties with them,” Mother Shen said.
"I was worried that they would cause trouble for Xiaoxue later, but now it's a blessing in disguise."
"Xiaoxue, why aren't you saying anything?" Qiuqiu asked Shen Qinxue with concern.
"It's nothing, I'm just a little tired. So much has happened today, from excitement and anticipation to this situation. I'm mentally exhausted."
"Alright, I'm here now, right? This won't happen again."
"We're about to have our own home and get married, so let's not think about these unhappy things anymore."
"Don't worry, this matter is over."
“They won’t let this go so easily. I know them very well. I’m worried that there will be many more similar incidents in the future,” Xiaoxue said with a worried expression.
"No, I'll handle this. Don't worry."
"So what should we do now that things are like this?" Xiaoxue asked worriedly.
"This is what I think, Xiaoxue: you and your uncle and aunt are living here now, and this house is yours now too."
“One is your family. Too many people know about the betrothal gifts now, and there will definitely be a lot of people coming. No matter what their purpose is, it will be a troublesome matter.”
"And then there are my uncle's relatives, who will definitely still cause trouble, since they haven't achieved their goal yet."
"So it's still very suitable to stay here now, and most importantly, there are people here to keep an eye on things, which makes you and me feel more at ease."
"The other thing is that I want Xiaohan to transfer to another school. I will arrange a very good school for him. My nephew will also go to this school after he graduates from kindergarten."
“This will be good for Xiaohan’s future development. Since he calls me brother-in-law, I will definitely think about his interests. Besides, after he transfers schools, they can’t just go looking for Xiaohan. This is good for all of us.”
When Shen's father and mother heard Qiuqiu say this, they hesitated and were also tempted by Xiaohan's arrangement. Of course, they knew that such an arrangement would be very beneficial to Xiaohan's future.
"Isn't this too much trouble? What if he's not cut out for it and embarrasses you?" Mother Shen asked.
“Auntie, Xiaohan is my brother-in-law, no one will disrespect me. This is a new beginning, and the social circles will be different in the future,” Qiuqiu said.
"Brother-in-law, don't worry, I agree to your arrangement. When I become successful, I can protect my sister, and they won't dare to bully her anymore," Xiao Han said.
Looking at her younger brother, who was like a little adult, Shen Qinxue was still very moved and felt that she hadn't spoiled him in vain.
Looking at her brother-in-law, Qiuqiu had to admit that the child was well-educated, which reflected the family's good upbringing.
"Alright, let's settle this then, and stop discussing it," Qiuqiu said.
"Alright, then I'll do as you say," Xiaoxue said with a smile.
"Uncle, Auntie, are you going to work tomorrow?"
"We're not going yet. We've taken the day off. And what happened today has made me hesitate about what to do next."
"Well then, Uncle and Aunt, I still suggest you just resign. I'll make arrangements for you then," Qiuqiu said.
"Mom and Dad, just listen to Qiuqiu. You won't have to get involved with them anymore. Isn't that perfect? I think it's great."
"Just listen to us," Xiaoxue advised.
“Alright, fine,” said Mr. and Mrs. Shen.
Qiuqiu was very happy to hear that they had agreed, as this matter had finally come to a conclusion.
It was also out of concern for Xiaoxue's feelings; otherwise, there would have been no need for such trouble.
