Ji Xia shook her head speechlessly. "I don't know how you became a nurse. Are you sure that with your professionalism, you won't make a medical mistake? I'll kindly guide you. This isn't feudal thinking; it's scientific theory and genetic knowledge."
Chen Congying looked at her eldest son, her eyes full of heartache, "Chang Suo, I'm sorry to bother you. You should go first. It's getting late. Xia Xia is pregnant, and your grandfather has stomach problems. They can't starve."
The food is getting cold.
Fortunately, Aunt Liu had the foresight to put all the dishes in a large steamer to keep them warm. Otherwise, a table full of delicious dishes would have been wasted, especially in this period of food scarcity. Although they could be eaten after being heated, the taste would have been affected.
"Mom, I'm an unfilial son and have brought trouble to our family." Qin Changshuo felt extremely guilty. Shen Congying waved her hands weakly at him without looking at them.
Qin Changshuo said to Ji Xia again, "Sister-in-law, I'm so sorry!"
Ji Xia glanced at Qiu Xiulan's hateful eyes and said with a smile, "Brother, a good wife brings less trouble to her husband, while a bad woman ruins three generations. The so-called marriage is indeed a big deal, so it's better to be cautious."
Before Qiu Xiulan could say anything, Qin Changshuo covered her mouth and said, "Thank you for your advice, sister-in-law. I understand!" Then he dragged Qiu Xiulan out of the door.
As soon as they went out, their actions attracted the attention of the onlookers in the compound. Qin Changshuo was not a pushover either. He was tall and had long legs. He held Qiu Xiulan with his armpits, continued to cover her mouth, and carried her out of the compound like a sack.
The soldier at the gate stared in horror and quickly opened the door. Qin Changshuo said to the soldier, "Please register and close Qiu Xiulan's permissions. She will not be allowed to come in and out as she pleases."
Qiu Xiulan was frightened now. Qin Changshuo really wanted to divorce her. She stopped struggling, her eyes full of horror.
She went a little too far this time.
But isn’t it Ji Xia’s fault?
It was clearly Ji Xia who humiliated her, scolded her, and instigated Qin Changshuo to divorce her.
What she didn't know was that if they were a normal couple, even if Ji Xia was kicked in the head by a donkey, he would not say anything to persuade them to separate. Couples always fight at the head of the bed and make up at the foot of the bed, but this couple has never fought in bed. It can be imagined that Qin Changshuo doesn't want to marry Qiu Xiulan at all.
Of course, if Qiu Xiulan didn't argue with Qin Xiao and didn't put accusations against him, Ji Xia wouldn't bother to care even if they hadn't slept in the same bed for ten years after marriage.
Since Qiu Xiulan is blind, Ji Xia will not be polite. She is not good at leaving people a way out. After all, everything she has done before is kind to the enemies and cruel to herself.
After leaving the compound, Qin Changshuo released Qiu Xiulan. He took out a handkerchief from his pocket, wiped his hands vigorously, and then threw the cotton handkerchief into the trash can.
The Qin family does not live in poverty. Old man Qin holds a high position, Qin Wangdong and Shen Congying are both working, and their three children all work and have good salaries.
But the Qin family has a good family tradition, and diligence and thrift are the most important. Qin Changsuo would wear a shirt that was new for three years and old for three years, and then mend it for another three years.
Patch upon patch, he won't throw away as long as there is still room for patching.
Once, Qiu Xiulan threw away a patched shirt of Qin Changshuo. From then on, Qin Changshuo put his clothes in the closet in the next room and did not allow Qiu Xiulan to touch them.
She used to look down on Qin Changshuo's behavior, but now, a brand new handkerchief was thrown directly into the trash can by Qin Changshuo, which was clearly a humiliation to her.
"Qin Changshuo, what do you mean? I tell you, no matter how much you dislike me, it can't change the fact that you and I are husband and wife." Qiu Xiulan felt a sense of pleasure in revenge.
Qin Changshuo's face was calm, and his eyes looking at her were filled with compassion, like a Buddha gazing at all living things. "I will file for divorce as soon as possible, and you should prepare as well."
Qiu Xiulan sneered, "Do you think you can divorce this marriage whenever you want? If I don't divorce you, you can only be with me for the rest of your life!"
Qin Changshuo looked at her calmly, "You planned this marriage. This is a military marriage, and you have no say in it. If you cooperate, the Qin family will show some mercy. If you don't, you will bear the consequences yourself!"
"You threaten me?" Qiu Xiulan was shocked. She always thought that Qin Changshuo had no temper. He was indifferent and distant to her, but he had never hurt her substantially. In other words, after three years of marriage, she had no idea what kind of person Qin Changshuo was.
"I'm not threatening you. Don't forget, you hurt my family today!" Qin Changshuo said, turned and left.
This sentence made Qiu Xiulan feel deeply frightened. Having lived two lives, she knew too well how much Qin Changshuo valued his family. Once, Qin Wanxue was just scolded and cried by a girl in her class. She went back and told Qin Changshuo, and Qin Changshuo used some means to force the girl to transfer schools directly.
Qiu Xiulan's legs were as weak as noodles. She dragged her heavy legs back home and looked at everything in the house. Only then did she realize that there was no trace of Qin Changshuo anywhere in the house.
It was as if he had never lived in this house.
What kind of person is he and what is his attitude towards marriage?
Qin Changshuo took a walk outside and saw Qiu Xiulan walking away. He turned around and went back to the compound and home.
After opening the door and going in, warm voices could be heard in the restaurant. However, it was only Qin Wanxue and Ji Xia's voices, with Qin Xiao's voice occasionally heard. The elders were all silent.
Qin Changshuo was a little nervous. He walked cautiously into the restaurant and called out, "Grandpa, Dad, Mom?"
Chen Congying said with a sullen face, "Why, are my words useless? Didn't I ask you to divorce and not come back?"
Qin Changshuo and Qin Xiao were about the same height, both with burly builds. Standing at the entrance of the restaurant, he looked like a tower. He touched his nose awkwardly and said, "Mom, I'm going to do this tomorrow. Can I stay home tonight?"
Shen Congying didn't say anything, and Qin Changshuo didn't dare to act rashly.
After everyone had eaten for a few more minutes, Old Master Qin finally said, "Let's eat first. You deserve the leftovers."
Qin Changshuo quickly turned his sadness into joy, sat down in his seat, added another bowl of rice, and began to eat. There were indeed not many dishes left, but he was not a picky person when it came to eating. He directly poured the soup from the nearest dish into his bowl and ate the rice quickly.
Qin Wanxue handed the remaining tail of a fish to Qin Changshuo, "Brother, we are all full. No one is going to snatch it from you. Eat slowly!"
Today it's white rice.
It was rare for the Qin family to have a meal of white rice. They usually had two bowls of rice, half coarse grains and half refined grains. This was already very good in that era.
Old Master Qin had finished eating. He stood up and said to Ji Xia, "Xia Xia, Xiao Qin, come to my study later. I have something to say."
Ji Xia was a little nervous and quickly stood up as well, "Okay, Grandpa!"
