Chapter 98 I'll Pay for It
When Jiang Xinbai woke up the next morning, he found that the atmosphere was not very good. His eldest brother and sister-in-law finished their meal in a hurry and went to work. His second brother lowered his head, took a steamed bun and left, and did not dare to take any more.
As for the second sister-in-law Su Qiuyan, she was at ease and drank the porridge slowly without changing her expression.
Jiang Xinbai finished his breakfast silently. Seeing that it was still early, he took a net bag, squatted in the corner and picked up a lot of walnuts. Su Qiuyan took a look and didn't say anything.
"Xinbai, what is this?" Sun Erni also squatted down to help.
"Oh, I'll bring some for my colleagues in the restaurant." Jiang Xinbai thought about his own dirty tricks. He thought that people wouldn't be willing to serve him food. He could only work as a cashier during this period. He had to talk to Sister Ying about it. He had to give them some benefits.
"Well, it's what I should do. Everyone is taking good care of you."
"The main reason is that I can't wash my hands clean for the time being. I have to work as a cashier during this period, so I have to talk to people nicely." Jiang Xinbai explained that working as a cashier is always less busy.
"Mom, this is enough. I'm leaving now!" Jiang Xinbai picked up the bag and hurried to work.
Su Qiuyan opened her mouth, wanting to ask her mother-in-law to help send Lili to the nursery, but when she saw her mother-in-law turn the corner and go back into the kitchen, she pursed her lips and took her daughter away by herself.
When she came back, she saw her mother-in-law holding the third child's child, chatting with others and basking in the sun downstairs. When she walked over, her mother-in-law turned around on purpose.
After Su Qiuyan went upstairs, the aunt who was chatting with her touched Sun Erni and asked in a low voice: "I forgot to ask you, what was the quarrel in your family last night? I heard the voice of your old man. He usually smiles, why is he angry?"
Sun Erni smiled coldly, "It's nothing, the children at home are disobedient, and there are always conflicts when a family lives together, so it's better to separate them."
Upon hearing this, the people around him became excited and asked, "Why? Are you going to split up your family?"
Seeing everyone's curiosity, Sun Erni did not hide it and said directly, "It was divided last night. The eldest son's family got a house and will move out at the end of the month. The room the second and third sons are living in now is theirs. They will have separate food and accommodation in the future. There is nothing else to divide. We have been subsidized enough by the two of us over the years."
Sun Erni didn't want to say anything else. She couldn't expose all the family scandals to others! According to her temper, she really wanted to tell everything, but after thinking about it, she held back, which was considered to save some face for Su Qiuyan.
"Oh, that's not right. We have been working for our children all our lives. You see, after working so hard all our lives, we still have to make them angry. Erni, you have to be more open-minded. If the children don't listen, you have to say something..."
"Yeah, those guys in my family are the same, they always make people angry!"
"It's all the same." The people around him spoke out to comfort him.
"Hey, who started it? I usually see your family is quite harmonious..."
"Why are you asking this, really." The person next to him touched the hand of the person who was speaking. He was really asking about something that was irrelevant.
Sun Erni smiled and pretended not to hear, she held the child and coaxed him gently.
Su Qiuyan, who was standing in the corridor on the second floor, gently retracted her head, her face darkened slightly, and turned around to open the door and go in.
She stopped when passing by a pile of walnuts, turned around and looked outside the door. Seeing that there was no one there, she quickly squatted down, picked up a few and ran back into the house. Humph, she insisted on eating them even though she was not allowed to.
Jiang Xinbai got off work early today, and as soon as he got home, he took a basket and filled it with a lot of walnuts and went upstairs.
"Aunt Xu, make dinner!" Jiang Xinbai saw Xu Fengni busy in the kitchen as soon as he entered the door.
"Xinbai, are you looking for your second sister? She's in the room, go in by yourself!"
"Oh, okay, Aunt Xu, get busy first!"
Jiang Xinlan in the room had already opened the door when she heard the sound, and said with a smile: "Come in! You are so polite, you even brought something!"
Jiang Xinbai smiled and lifted the basket, "This is for you. Ask your brother-in-law to knock it for you. You can't open it by yourself."
"What?"
"Walnuts, fresh walnuts. Jinsheng and I got them from the mountains on Sunday." Jiang Xinbai was not shy and sat directly on the bed.
"There are walnuts in the mountains? Why don't you ask your brother-in-law to go with you so we can get some too."
Jiang Xinbai rolled his eyes, "We are not fortune tellers, how can we know there are walnuts in the mountains? I thought that my brother-in-law would accompany you during his rare rest, and you have something to eat anyway, so be content! Look at my hands, what have they become? It's all caused by peeling the outer layer of the walnut skin. You are lucky, I have peeled it for you."
"Hey, that's right, who made me have a good sister!" Jiang Xinlan smiled proudly, it's good for two sisters to marry close to each other! If there is anything good, they can think of each other.
"Okay, okay, I also got some chestnuts. I'll bring some for you later. They're in my mother-in-law's room now, and no one else in the family knows about it. My mother-in-law originally said she would buy some for us to eat at home, but now that we're splitting up, I guess she won't buy them to eat together."
"I was also wondering what was going on in your house last night? Were you planning on splitting up the family? Why are you splitting up all of a sudden? My mother-in-law said she heard your father-in-law's voice, and he sounded very angry. What on earth happened?" Jiang Xinlan was really curious!
Jiang Xinbai sighed deeply, and carefully recounted what happened last night. Finally, he concluded, "Now I'm worried that no one will take care of the child in the future. You don't know what Su Qiuyan looks like. She doesn't want my mother-in-law to take care of my child. She really dares to think so."
"You don't call her second sister-in-law anymore? Don't let people talk about it." Jiang Xinlan reminded that no matter how bad the relationship was, she was still sister-in-law, and it was not nice to call her by her name.
"She also calls me Jiang Xinbai directly. When our relationship is good, she calls me Xinbai. I have finally seen through her character. She is profit-driven and even worse than my sister-in-law." Jiang Xinbai is now furious with Su Qiuyan.
"You, what does your mother-in-law say? She really won't take care of your children for you?" Jiang Xinlan smiled.
"I told my mother-in-law to give her ten yuan a month for taking care of my child, but my father-in-law finally said five yuan would be fine. There are so many things to do, and it's really annoying." Jiang Xinbai didn't feel sorry for the money, but he couldn't stand Su Qiuyan's behavior. It would be best if her mother-in-law didn't take care of her child in the future.
"That's fine. After all, you have to go to work, and you can rest assured that your mother-in-law will take care of the child."
"That's what I said. Okay, second sister, I'm going back first."
As soon as Sun Erni saw Jiang Xinbai enter the room, she pulled her aside and said, "What your dad said last night was just to deal with your second sister-in-law. Don't take it seriously. Mom is happy to take care of your child. Xiaobao is my darling. I will pay for him. Just don't tell anyone."
