Chapter 68 Do you have a home? Do you want to go back?

"Qin Xiao, do you really want to go back with me?" Jiang Tang blinked, trying to stop the man from being impulsive. "From what my mom said on the phone, you will inevitably be embarrassed by them this time when you go back."

Jiang Tang still hoped that Qin Xiao would reconsider it. The hint from Zhou's mother on the phone was indeed irritating, and it was a legitimate reason for Qin Xiao to go back. However, if she was embarrassed, and the people on the other side were her family, it would be difficult for Qin Xiao to handle it.

Qin Xiao stared at the little girl in front of him and said calmly, "If you can't explain it clearly over the phone, you should have said it in person."

Jiang Tang blinked and lowered her eyes slightly. What Qin Xiao said made sense. She pursed her lips and compromised.

"Well, it's not too late to prepare to go back now."

She looked up at Qin Xiao and asked, "When are you going back? Do you have any plans?"

The Chinese New Year is almost here and the factory will be busy for some time. The schedule is very tight and I wonder if my husband can spare some time.

Qin Xiao said calmly, "Tomorrow, let Lei Zi and He Tian go home for dinner and discuss it with them."

Jiang Tang nodded and said softly, "I think I'll have to ask He Tian and Lei Zi to pay more attention to this this time. When we come back after the New Year, you will be more responsible and give them a holiday."

Qin Xiao nodded, obviously he meant the same thing.

Qin Xiao looked at the sky outside which was getting dark, stared at the little girl, and said in a low voice, "Go back."

Jiang Tang also shifted his gaze to the outside, then turned to look at Qin Xiao and said softly, "It's okay, I called a tricycle, and someone will pick you up after dark."

This man wants to stay here alone tonight, so just stay with him for a while.

Qin Xiao raised his black eyes slightly and responded in a low voice.

It was not until it was completely dark that Jiang Tang heard a knock on the door. It must be the tricycle driver coming.

She stood up, looked at Qin Xiao, and said softly, "I guess it's the master who's here."

She picked up the thermos bucket, held Qin Chuyang again, looked at Qin Xiao with her moist eyes, and said in a sweet voice, "Qin Xiao, I'm taking Chuyang away. I'll cook for you tomorrow morning and wait for you at home. Don't eat out."

The man responded in a low voice and led Jiang Tang and Qin Chuyang to open the door.

Send them out.

As soon as we opened the door, we saw that the person at the door was indeed the tricycle master. After greeting the master, the family of three walked out the door.

Jiang Tang wrapped the scarf around the boy, trying her best to cover him up, then turned to look at the man beside her and said in a coquettish voice, "We'll leave first, you stay alone."

Qin Xiao stepped forward and raised his hands to wrap the scarf around Jiang Tang. Most of the girl's face was buried in the scarf. The man rubbed the girl's rosy face with his rough thumb and whispered his agreement.

Let go and let the person go.

Jiang Tang took Qin Chuyang into the car, held the little guy in his arms, and tried his best to cover the kid. After they sat down, Jiang Tang waved to the man, and the tricycle slowly drove into the city.

Qin Xiao stared at the tricycle that disappeared into the night and stood alone for a while before returning to the office.

When Jiang Tang and the boy returned home, the first thing they did was to fill the teapot with water and put it on the fire.

Then he sat in front of the stove and started the fire. He then brought a stool for Qin Chuyang and asked the boy to sit next to the fire. He said softly, "Chuyang, are you cold?"

The boy's face was flushed, but his eyes were sparkling, "Sister-in-law, it's not cold."

He sounded excited and extremely happy.

He took off his gloves and warmed himself by the fire. His big black grape eyes looked at Jiang Tang brightly. "Sister-in-law, can we still visit brother in the future?"

The young man still felt sorry for his brother. Jiang Tang touched his head and nodded with a smile, "Okay, if brother can't come back in the future, we will go find him."

"It would be best if my brother could get a bed for Chuyang in the office and keep him company at night."

The boy was happy, "Yes, sister-in-law, we are a family and we will be together forever."

The boy smiled innocently, and Jiang Tang also smiled and cooperated with him.

After being baked for a while and warming up, Jiang Tang took off his scarf, and the boy also took off his scarf.

Jiang Tang touched the boy's face and pinched his little hand. After making sure that the boy was warm, he allowed him to take off his scarf.

The water in the teapot on the stove was also boiling. Jiang Tang took a bowl out from the cupboard, picked up the teapot, made two doses of cold infusion, lifted the bowl and sat on the bench, handed a bowl to the boy, and coaxed him softly, "I've been out for a long time, Chuyang, drink this first, don't catch a cold."

The boy was small, but he was not afraid of taking medicine. He took the medicine that Jiang Tang prepared for him and drank it all in one gulp. After finishing it, he turned the bowl upside down to show Jiang Tang, "Sister-in-law, I've finished it. Am I awesome?"

Jiang Tang had to be mentally prepared before drinking a little more, but the young guy was much better than her in this respect. She gave him a thumbs up.

"Great."

Then he drank it hesitantly.

After finishing the drink, there was just enough water in the teapot. Jiang Tang rinsed the bowl first, then took the washbasin directly from the bathroom, poured hot water into it, adjusted it to the appropriate temperature, and then washed his own face and the little one's face.

Then I brought out the footbath, prepared hot water, and prepared to wash my feet.

The uncle and his sister-in-law sat opposite each other. Jiang Tang put his feet on the little guy's feet and looked at him with smiling eyes.

The little guy pulled his little feet out and then put them on Jiang Tang's feet.

After washing his feet, Jiang Tang poured out the water, cleaned the room by himself, and went to shovel the coal.

She didn't have much strength, and she shoveled back and forth twice with great effort. Only after she filled the coal stove with the coal could she breathe a sigh of relief.

She took Qin Chuyang out to the studio, turned off the light at the door, and then went to the yard door to check that it was locked. Then she took Qin Chuyang back to the house. She first went to the boy's room, turned on the electric blanket for him, and lay down on the bed with the kid.

She picked up the storybook she had bought for the kid from the bedside and said slowly, "Chuyang, can I tell you a story?"

The little guy lay obediently in the quilt, looking at Jiang Tang expectantly with his big eyes.

Jiang Tang raised his hands to cover the boy's eyes and coaxed him softly, "Close your eyes and go to sleep obediently."

The little guy closed his eyes obediently.

Jiang Tang then turned his attention to the storybook and read softly.

After reading several stories, he quietly tilted his head and looked at the little guy who was sleeping soundly in the bed next to him. The warmth in the quilt made the little guy's face turn red.

Jiang Tang breathed a sigh of relief, got out of bed quietly, turned off the electric blanket, walked out of the room, closed the door for the little one, and then returned to his room.

She turned on the electric blanket in her room first. She did not go to bed immediately. She sat in front of the dressing table and applied face cream as usual before going to the closet to get her pajamas. Jiang Tang put her pajamas under the quilt to warm them up. When they were almost warm, she quickly changed into her pajamas and climbed onto the bed, covering herself completely in the quilt, tightly and securely without any wind exposed.

After taking a break and feeling his body completely warm, Jiang Tang reached out from under the quilt to turn off the electric blanket and unplug it before he relaxed in the quilt.

In the darkness, Jiang Tang blinked. She felt so empty sleeping alone. She couldn't help but stretch her hands outside from under the quilt, and saw a large empty space.

Not knowing what was happening to Qin Xiao in the factory, Jiang Tang let out a low breath, slowly closed his eyes, and hypnotized himself to sleep.

The next morning, Jiang Tang got up, changed his clothes, went downstairs quickly, lit the fire, went to the bathroom to turn on the water heater, returned to the bedroom, put the pot on the stove, and then sat in front of the stove.

He let out a low breath. This is probably what Qin Xiao did every time he woke up in the morning.

She cooked shredded chicken porridge. Normally, if she was the one making breakfast in the morning, she would not make porridge, considering that Qin Xiao had to go to the factory and consume a lot of energy. She would make pancakes, buns, or noodles, which were enough to fill the stomach. But today, Qin Xiao came back from the factory and did not have to do any physical work.

It’s just right to make shredded chicken porridge, which is easy to digest.

As she was thinking this, Jiang Tang heard the sound of a car horn outside the yard. She immediately stood up from the bench, trotted to the gate of the yard, opened the door, and Qin Xiao drove into the yard.

Jiang Tang looked at the man who got off the car. There was fatigue in his eyes. Qin Xiao was about to go to the bathroom as soon as he got off the car, but was stopped by Jiang Tang.

"Qin Xiao, eat first."

The little girl always liked to be clean. Qin Xiao was stunned for a rare moment and explained in a hoarse voice, "Jiang Tang, I came back early and didn't wash up."

Jiang Tang nodded nonchalantly, "Well, let's go eat."

The man looked at the little girl, his throat rolling, "Oh."

Then he obediently went into the bathroom.

Jiang Tang served him a bowl of shredded chicken porridge, sat next to him, and whispered, "Eat breakfast and then go to sleep for a while. There's nothing to do at home."

Judging from the dark circles under Qin Xiao’s eyes, he probably didn’t get much sleep last night. It would be a good opportunity for him to go back to sleep after dinner.

Qin Xiao paused and responded in a low voice.

The shredded chicken porridge in his mouth was filled with sweetness, which flowed into the man's heart and warmed his body.

Watching the man eating porridge, Jiang Tang went to the bathroom to get a basin of hot water and brought slippers to Qin Xiao. "You don't need to wash your face, but you have to wash your feet before going to bed."

Qin Xiao's heart shone slightly, and his lips twitched.

After breakfast, Qin Xiao washed his feet obediently.

Jiang Tang went up to the second floor first, put his pajamas into the quilt, and then turned on the electric blanket. When he went out, he saw the little guy rubbing his eyes at the stairs, preparing to go downstairs.

Jiang Tang walked over, took the kid's hand, and led the little guy downstairs.

In the bedroom, Qin Xiao finished washing his feet, put his shoes in the corner, poured some water and went upstairs.

When I returned to the bedroom and lifted the quilt, I saw the neatly folded pajamas pressed under the warm quilt, and they were still steaming.

Qin Xiao's dark eyes deepened slightly, his thin lips curled up unconsciously, he quickly changed into pajamas, turned over on the bed, closed his eyes, and fell into a deep sleep in a short while.

After Jiang Tang and the kid finished breakfast, she took the little guy out of the yard. Hetian and the others would come over for dinner this afternoon, so it would be best to go to the market to buy some things first.

He took Qin Chuyang out and went directly to the market, where he bought a lot of things. When Jiang Tang returned home, Qin Xiao had already woken up.

She frowned and walked into the bedroom, saying softly, "Qin Xiao, why don't you sleep a little longer?"

I guess I didn't sleep all night last night, and now I'm up after just a short while. Is this guy some kind of robot that never gets tired?

Seeing the little girl carrying a lot of bags, Qin Xiao walked up to her, took the things in her hands, and whispered, "I've slept enough."

Jiang Tang handed all the things to him helplessly and was pushed by Qin Xiao to warm himself by the fire.

She sat on the bench, watching Qin Xiao slowly put the things she bought in order. She sat on the bench, breathed a sigh of relief, and stared at the fire.

After roasting for a while with the boy, Jiang Tang was completely warm.

I stood up, rolled up my sleeves, put on my apron, and prepared to start cooking.

Qin Xiao was beside her, watching the little girl's movements, and also began to help.

Jiang Tang planned to stew a chicken. In winter, it is better to eat something nourishing and warm to keep warm.

She planned to stew the chicken, cook a big pork elbow, and then make some vegetarian side dishes to relieve the greasy feeling.

The tasks of processing the chicken and pork elbow skin were all handed over to Qin Xiao.

Qin Xiao was already very experienced and started processing the things quickly after taking them.

Jiang Tang first cleaned the ingredients and side dishes, and when he had almost finished processing them, Qin Xiao's chicken and pork elbow were also processed.

Qin Xiao was sent to light the fire, while Jiang Tang prepared the chicken and then stewed it.

In the afternoon, Jiang Tang heard the sound at the door.

It should be Hetian and Lei Zi who came.

"Qin Xiao, it should be Lei Zi and the others who are here."

When she asked Qin Xiao to open the door, the man had already walked out, and soon the three brothers entered the kitchen.

Smelling the rich aroma of the big pork elbow on the stove and the mellow fragrance of the chicken, Wang Qilei was eager to try it and smacked his lips while swallowing saliva.

"Wow, sister-in-law, I got it again today, it smells so good."

He has always been like this, with a carefree and extroverted personality, and Jiang Tang is used to it.

Smiling at him,

"Just eat more later."

Wang Qilei laughed, "Sister-in-law, you don't have to worry about this. I've been here a few times and I always came back with a bloated belly."

Jiang Tang was amused, thinking back to the previous times, it was indeed the case.

Zhang Hetian politely greeted Jiang Tang, "Sister-in-law, sorry to bother you."

Jiang Tang waved his hands, "You're welcome."

Because Zhang Hetian had to go back home in the evening, they had an early lunch and the food was served before it got dark.

Sitting at the table to eat, the group of people ate happily and noisily.

At about the same time, Qin Xiao looked at Zhang Hetian and Wang Qilei and whispered, "I have something to discuss with you today."

Wang Qilei looked at Qin Xiao and wiped his mouth, "Brother Xiao, what's the matter?"

Qin Xiao glanced at the little girl next to him and said in a deep voice, "Today is the New Year, we are not celebrating in Wuli County."

Wang Qilei was confused and touched his head, "Ah? Brother Xiao, if you don't stay here, then where are you going?"

However, Zhang Hetian next to him understood a little. He glanced at Jiang Tang, then shifted his gaze to Qin Xiao and expressed his guess.

"Brother Xiao, are you planning to go back to the capital with your sister-in-law? Are you going to spend the New Year together at your sister-in-law's house today?"

Wang Qile was stunned by his words. Qin Xiao nodded slightly and said "hmm".

Wang Qilei had already put down his chopsticks and looked at Qin Xiao, "Ah? Brother Xiao, you and your sister-in-law are planning to go back to the capital."

Qin Xiao said in a deep voice, "There are many reasons, which cannot be explained in one sentence."

He looked at Wang Qilei and Zhang Hetian and said, "I asked you to come here today."

"I mean, we plan to go to the capital before the New Year and won't be back until after the New Year. During my absence, you guys should keep an eye on the factory. I will make up for it after I come back after the New Year."

After hearing what Qin Xiao said, Zhang Hetian and Wang Qilei looked at each other, and Wang Qilei looked at Qin Xiao with some reproach.

"Tsk, Brother Xiao, even if you don't tell us, we will still take good care of the factory."

"Besides, you have always put more effort into this factory than we have, especially after you bought a house in the county town. You basically go and keep an eye on it every day. Brother Hetian and I have never put much effort into it."

"Just rest assured and accompany your sister-in-law back. We will definitely take good care of the factory. We can't make up for the effort you put in before."

After he finished speaking, Zhang Hetian nodded in agreement, "Lei Zi and I have the same idea."

"Brother Xiao, don't worry about anything. You already have enough burdens on your shoulders. Just go to the capital and spend the New Year well."

"And get in touch with my sister-in-law's family."

Although Brother Xiao didn't tell them anything, he knew a little bit without being told that Brother Xiao would have to pass the test of his sister-in-law's parents sooner or later.

Fortunately, I finally have some confidence now. If I was still like when my sister-in-law came, I would have had a hard time this year.

Wang Qilei said with a smile, "Brother Xiao, just go with peace of mind."

"Hehe, Xiao has opened a factory now, and his life is much more comfortable. Don't worry."

He said whatever he thought.

In his heart, Qin Xiao has always been the most powerful, and he never thought that his brother Xiao would be looked down upon by others.

Qin Xiao responded hoarsely, silently raised a glass of wine and clinked it with his two brothers.

Silent thanks.

Wang Qilei looked at Jiang Tang and asked with a smile, "Sister-in-law, what are your uncle and aunt like on a daily basis?"

As he asked this, he looked at Jiang Tang and felt relaxed. In his heart, his sister-in-law was good in every way, so her parents must be the same.

Brother Xiao will definitely not be too sad on this trip to the capital.

When he asked this, Zhang Hetian beside him also looked at Jiang Tang with some concern. What was different between him and Wang Qilei was that even if his sister-in-law's parents didn't think highly of Xiao Ge at the beginning, although he would feel uncomfortable for Xiao Ge, this was a very big fact.

Even good parents would not be able to accept that their daughter married a man from a small country.

But if she is a bit more nice and kind, Xiao Ge has opened a factory now, and things are getting better and better. He will satisfy whatever my sister-in-law wants.

As long as my sister-in-law's parents are kind, they will not make things too difficult for Xiao Ge when they see how he treats my sister-in-law.

They were all staring at her. Jiang Tang blinked. From their conversations on the phone, it seemed that except for the issue of her marriage, Zhou's father and mother were supportive of her and actually had nice personalities.

However, Jiang Tang glanced at the pairs of eyes staring at him. What these people were concerned about was exactly Zhou's father and mother's attitude towards Qin Xiao.

Jiang Tang didn't know what to say. She glanced at the man next to her. The man had no expression on his face, as if he could accept anything.

Jiang Tang said somewhat ambiguously, "They have decent personalities and have been very good to me since I was a child."

After hearing his sister-in-law say that her parents were of a decent temper, Wang Qilei relaxed and said, "That's good."

Zhang Hetian glanced at Qin Xiao and Jiang Tang, and nodded softly.

After finishing the meal, Wang Qilei and Zhang Hetian did not sit for long. Instead, they said goodbye to Jiang Tang and the others and went out directly.

One wanted to go home and the other had to stay at the factory. Jiang Tang didn't stop them and walked them to the door.

Wang Qilei was carefree but still a little embarrassed, "Sister-in-law, I think I'll have to trouble you and Brother Xiao to clean up the house this time. We have to hurry back."

In the past, after every meal, they would stay behind to clean up, but this time they really were in a hurry to go back and had no choice.

Zhang Hetian also looked at Jiang Tang and whispered, "Sister-in-law, thank you for your concern."

Jiang Tang smiled and said, "Don't worry, it's just a few bowls, and there aren't many people. It won't take a few minutes."

Wang Qilei nodded to Zhang Hetian and left with a smile.

After seeing them off, Jiang Tang turned around and saw Qin Xiao already started packing up on his own.

Jiang Tang walked over to help, and Qin Xiao whispered, "Go and rest."

The meals were all cooked by the little girl, which was already very hard work.

Jiang Tang didn't listen to him and said softly, "It's okay, just this time."

"You were drunk just now, I won't bully you."

Qin Xiao paused and looked at the little girl in front of him, who was cleaning the table with her head down. He didn't say anything else, but his hands moved faster.

Even the little ones came running over on their little feet to help.

After cleaning up the leftovers on the table, Qin Xiao was washing the dishes, and Jiang Tang took a broom and swept the studio and the yard.

After sweeping clean, she put the broom in the corner of the yard, returned to the kitchen, sat on the pony and warmed herself by the fire. Qin Xiao also washed all the dishes in a short while.

He wiped the table clean again and turned around to see the little girl staring at him blankly.

Qin Xiao's dark eyes also looked straight over there, Jiang Tang turned away and stared at the fire.

Qin Xiao came over and sat next to her.

Jiang Tang yawned and whispered, "You can rest assured now. Leave it to Lei Zi and He Tian first. You can worry about it if there is anything important."

"Hmm." Qin Xiao fiddled with the fire.

Jiang Tang thought of what he had just said, looked at Qin Xiao with soft eyes, and said softly, "Qin Xiao, except for this matter with you, they are actually quite nice people."

Qin Xiao knew it, but as for Qia Qia, he would not let go, even if she was not happy with him.

Jiang Tang sighed softly. Now, when she thought about going back, she was more nervous than Qin Xiao.

One point is that I'm worried that they will make things difficult for Qin Xiao.

Another reason was that she had unknowingly become increasingly involved with Zhou's father and mother, which went against all her initial thoughts of distancing herself from them.

She felt more and more relaxed towards Zhou's father and mother. This trip back was not only a test for Qin Xiao, but also a test for her.

Jiang Tang sighed, feeling that this was extremely difficult.

Qin Xiao stood up and went to the bathroom, turned on the water heater, and came back. Jiang Tang looked up at him, "Qin Xiao, I don't want to move. Go and help me take off my pajamas."

Qin Xiao went upstairs directly, turned on the electric blankets in the two rooms, took his pajamas downstairs, and took Qin Chuyang to take a shower.

Jiang Tang stared at the fire blankly, trying not to let his imagination run wild.

Jiang Tang waited for Qin Xiao and Qin Chuyang to come out before taking a shower. When she came out of the bathroom, the man had already cleaned the bedroom and refilled the stove with coal.

Watching Qin Xiao taking the dirty clothes to wash, Jiang Tang yawned and went straight to the second floor. The electric blanket upstairs had already been turned on by Qin Xiao.

She sat in front of the dressing table, applying face cream and hand cream, before slowly climbing into bed.

After a while, Qin Xiao entered the room. The man took a few steps in and wanted to turn off the lights. Jiang Tang frowned slightly, "Qin Xiao, wipe your face and hands first, then get on the bed."

She stared at the man's rough palms and the dry contours of his face and wrinkled her nose.

The man sat silently on the little girl's dressing table and clumsily squeezed out the face cream.

"Qin Xiao, be gentle and don't squeeze too much, otherwise it will be too greasy."

The man ground it out little by little, until it was the size of small particles. He paused in silence and looked at the little girl sitting on the bed.

Jiang Tang curled her lips and said in a sweet voice, "Turn off the lights."

Having said this, she lay back on the bed, yawned heavily and closed her eyes.

Qin Xiao got on the bed and initially lay a little further away from Jiang Tang. The room had become completely dark, and the man's low, magnetic voice reached Jiang Tang's ears.

"Jiang Tang, do you want to go back?"

Jiang Tang blinked, turned over and faced Qin Xiao, and whispered, "Why do you ask that?"

There was complete silence in the darkness.

Qin Xiao's dark eyes dimmed slightly. Perhaps the little girl had unconsciously revealed her resistance to going to the capital for a moment.

He said in a low voice, "If you don't want to go back, then don't go."

Whether it was because the little girl didn't want to go back or because she didn't want to take him back, she just didn't want to, and he had to accept it.

Jiang Tang let out a low breath, moved closer to Qin Xiao, and said in a low and soft voice, "I don't want to go back at all."

After she finished speaking, she seemed to be able to hear someone's heartbeat.

Jiang Tang explained softly, "I don't know how I should get along with them when I go back."

"It's like nothing happened in the past year, or are we still as happy as before as a family?"

"I definitely can't do it. It's a fact that we've been apart for a year, and it's also a fact that I have a younger brother who's much younger than me. I'm afraid I can't pretend to be a harmonious family."

She couldn't say that she was not the original owner, but it was true that she didn't know how to face it.

Jiang Tang was held in the man's arms. She buried her head in the man's chest and rubbed it unconsciously, making a few gasps.

"But, it's only a little bit. This time I'm going back with you and Chuyang. I don't know how to get along with them, but knowing how we get along, I'm not afraid anymore."

"Besides, you're right. It's not a solution to put it off. Sooner or later, you'll have to meet them."

Whether it is her or Qin Xiao, they have to face it.

Qin Xiao stroked the little girl's head with his big hands, and his heart heated up slightly when he felt the soft words of the little girl buried in his arms.

"Don't pretend if you really can't accept it."

He lowered his head, pressed his lips against the girl's forehead, rubbed them tenderly, and said in a low voice, "Like you said before, we'll come back after we meet once."

"Jiang Tang, you have a family."

Jiang Tang buried herself in the man's arms, clutching his clothes with her fingertips, sniffed, rubbed her head, and said, "Hmm."

Qin Xiao held the person directly into his arms and let out a low breath.

Jiang Tang fell asleep in the man's arms.

Early the next morning, Jiang Tang woke up and went downstairs. The familiar figure of the man was still sitting in the kitchen. She raised the corners of her lips and went to the bathroom first. Sure enough, the water heater had been turned on.

Jiang Tang went into the kitchen after washing up.

Sitting in front of the stove, he tilted his head and looked at Qin Xiao, unable to suppress the smile on his lips.

This good mood has been maintained.

It was not until the evening that someone knocked on the door of the yard. The voice was urgent, as if there was something urgent.

Jiang Tang stood up and went to open the door. The person at the door made her frown.

It was Liu Guohui and Liu Lan. Lu Fang did not come with them.

After all, Liu Guohui was there, Jiang Tang took a deep breath, led him in, and shouted, "Qin Xiao, Guohui is here."

She took the two of them into the kitchen. After a while, Qin Xiao came down from the stairs and entered the kitchen, and saw the guests who had come to the house.

He frowned slightly and sat next to Jiang Tang.

The little guy also sat on the small stool, put his little hands on Jiang Tang's legs, and blinked his big eyes at Liu Guohui and Liu Lan.

Liu Guohui and Liu Lan sat for a while. Liu Guohui looked a little embarrassed, but he still looked at Jiang Tang and said, "Sister-in-law, I came here this time because I want to ask you for a favor."

If the relationship between his sister and Jiang Tang could be more harmonious on a normal day, considering his relationship with Qin Xiao, he wouldn't feel so embarrassed.

But since it was his own sister's fault, he still felt a little shameless to come and ask for help now.

Qin Xiao turned and looked at the little girl.

Jiang Tang's expression was indifferent. She didn't look at Liu Lan, but stared at Liu Guohui and said, "She was in the provincial capital, why did she come back?"

Liu Guohui touched his long buzz cut and said helplessly, "Fang'er lived with her in the provincial capital for a while before. When she recovered from her illness, she came back."

Jiang Tang frowned, "Tell me, what's the matter?"

Liu Guohui looked at Jiang Tang, then glanced at Qin Xiao, "I think this matter is a bit difficult."

"That's right. I brought Lan'er to the city this time because I wanted to ask you and Brother Xiao if they could let her live in the city for a while."

Jiang Tang frowned slightly. They wanted Liu Lan to stay in the city for a while. If she understood correctly, they wanted them to take Liu Lan in for a while?

Jiang Tang glanced at Liu Lan who was standing next to Liu Guohui with a calm expression. Liu Lan hadn't said a word since she entered the room. She thought something had happened and she suddenly stopped making noise.

It turns out that something really happened.

Jiang Tang lowered his head and said nothing for a while.

After a while, he looked up at Liu Guohui and asked, "Why does she want to live in the city? Why doesn't she live at home?"

Liu Guohui also knew that he was in trouble. Hearing Jiang Tang say this, he sighed heavily, "Sister-in-law, Brother Xiao, I don't know when the gangster who bullied Lan'er got together with Jiang Hu. Jiang Hu's mouth even didn't let his own sister go. Now Lan'er's previous incident has been known to the whole village."

Although they had found a legitimate reason to go to the provincial capital before, it still did not prove that they were not in the village.

After Liu Lan came back, she behaved well at home for a while. Who knew that she would be ruined like this by Jiang Hu? He was at a loss for a while. He couldn't let his wife continue to live in the provincial capital with her sister.

The son at home can't leave his mother.

They really couldn't let Liu Lan stay in the village, so they had no other choice but to come to find Jiang Tang and his wife.

After hearing what Liu Guohui said, Jiang Tang glanced at Liu Lan beside him. No wonder she was like this now, without saying a word.

However, Jiang Tang really didn't want to help Liu Lan. She was not a bitch, and if she still rushed to help, she herself would find it difficult to accept it.

"Let her stay in a hotel."

Qin Xiao looked at Liu Guohui with a cold voice.

Liu Guohui was a little embarrassed, "Brother Xiao, the hotel is too messy, I am worried."

How could he accept it if he met another gangster again?

"Then rent a house in the city."

Qin Xiao was determined and left no room for maneuver.

Liu Guohui was in a dilemma for a while.

Ever since Qin Xiao said he refused to accept it, Liu Lan, who had been keeping her head down, finally raised her head and looked at Qin Xiao. She was completely heartbroken.

She is so unworthy that I can't even accept her living under the same roof for a while.

Qin Xiao refused without any hesitation.

Jiang Tang turned to look at the man, then put on a smile and looked at Liu Guohui.

"We won't let your sister come live here. There's another problem. We won't be at home for a few days. We have to go to the capital."

Jiang Tang explained in a slow and gentle voice, "We estimate that we won't be able to come back until after the New Year. We have to clean up the house and seal up everything. It's uninhabitable."

Liu Guohui suddenly realized and looked at Qin Xiao, "Brother Xiao, are you going to the capital to celebrate the New Year today?"

Qin Xiao nodded expressionlessly.

This reason was more acceptable to Liu Guohui than Qin Xiao's direct rejection just now.

He sighed, looked at his sister beside him, and shook his head, "Okay, then I won't bother my sister-in-law and Brother Xiao anymore. I'll think of a solution."

Send Liu Guohui and the reluctant Liu Lan away.

Jiang Tang and Qin Xiao returned home. She looked at the man next to her and said softly, "You have been so close since childhood. You should have found a reason to reject him just now. I think he is in a difficult situation."

Jiang Tang sighed, "Fortunately, we really have to go back to the capital, otherwise it would hurt your relationship that has lasted for so many years."

Qin Xiao turned around and looked at the always soft-hearted girl in front of him, and whispered, "He knew we would be in trouble but still came to us for help. Isn't he afraid of hurting our feelings?"

His sister has repeatedly made things difficult for his wife, and now that something has happened, she still comes to them for help despite the pressure of making things difficult for them.

Since he is not afraid of hurting feelings and wants to embarrass his wife, he will not save her face.

Jiang Tang blinked, looked at Qin Xiao and nodded. What Qin Xiao said made sense. It was the other party who instigated the incident. Even if their feelings had faded, it was not Qin Xiao's fault.

A smile spread across her lips as she looked at the man in front of her, "Qin Xiao, you are quite clear-headed."

There was a faint smile in the man's black eyes, which melted into the girl's smiling face.

Looking at Jiang Tang quietly, "Jiang Tang, don't worry about my friendship and face, these are not worth mentioning."

The little girl is too soft-hearted.

However, Qin Xiao glanced at Qin Chuyang beside him, his dark eyes dimmed slightly. If the girl was not so soft-hearted, she would have abandoned Qin Chuyang and him and ran back to the capital.

The man twitched the corners of his lips. The little girl just needed to be soft-hearted towards him occasionally.

As for other people, even if they have a heart of stone, what can they do?
