Chapter 611 Disdain
"I didn't recognize you for a moment, just come back."
Li Qiang thought that his sister was really possessed. If she didn't get out of her inner demons, something bad would happen sooner or later.
…
The Zhou family was busy celebrating the wedding, and only after all the tables, chairs, pots, pans, and utensils were moved away did Xue Guixiang sit down to rest.
Just as I sat down to take a sip of tea, Xue Guiqin came back from the city.
She didn't stay at home last night, but stayed in a hotel in the city because she thought the sanitation in the village was too poor.
Seeing Xue Guixiang and Qiao Jingzhen drinking tea at a small table in the yard, a flash of contempt flashed in her eyes.
Country people are country people. They don’t know the etiquette of drinking tea. They actually filled a big bowl with tea, like feeding a pig.
Seeing her come back, Xue Guixiang indifferently invited her to come and sit down.
Yesterday, Xue Guiqin was afraid that her attitude towards borrowing money would make Xue Guixiang a little dissatisfied with her, but after all, she was her own sister whom she had not seen for many years, and she could not just ignore her.
Xue Guiqin walked over, wiped the small stool on the ground with disgust, and then sat down.
Qiao Jingzhen saw all of this.
She smoothed her neat silver hair and looked towards the distant clouds.
Xue Guiqin was dressed nicely, wearing a high-quality Dacron shirt, a woolen coat, and a pair of black leather shoes.
Her face is well maintained and she looks several years younger than Xue Guixiang.
In fact, she is indeed several years younger than Xue Guixiang.
Xue Guixiang has been engaged in physical labor for many years and looks stronger than her, but she has the air of a rich lady.
It's obvious that he has lived a life of luxury for many years.
She sat on the small stool reluctantly, looking very aggrieved.
Xue Guixiang poured her a bowl of tea before asking, "Where did you go yesterday? I was busy with my brother-in-law's wedding, and I didn't see you for a moment."
"Since you were busy, I went for a walk in the city and stayed in a hotel for one night." Xue Guiqin looked at the tea leaves in the bowl with disdain and swore that she would not drink a single sip.
"It's not like we don't have a place to live at home, so why spend that spare money?"
"The house is too crowded. I can't get used to it."
Xue Guixiang didn't know what to say for a moment.
After a while, he asked, "I was busy yesterday and didn't bother to ask about my family. Are the children and brother-in-law okay? Is your brother-in-law busy every day? Why didn't you bring the children back this time?"
Xue Guiqin's face darkened slightly: "They are all fine. The children need to go to school and are not used to going back to the countryside."
"Oh! Yes, the children all have to go to school, and coming back will delay their studies." After not seeing each other for many years, the sisters are no longer close, but rather feel more estranged.
As we were chatting, I didn’t know what to say.
"Sister, how are your children?"
Talking about her children, Xue Guixiang was half happy and half worried: "Zhou Zhuo and his wife Qingqing are very hardworking. They both got into college. My daughter-in-law is capable. Since she got married, our family life has been getting better and better.
It's Zhou Yuan... that useless guy. He ran away from home with the girls from the village. There's been no news from him until now, and I don't know how he's doing..."
Xue Guixiang becomes worried whenever Zhou Yuan is mentioned; this is the only thing that worries her.
Although she didn't say it, it didn't mean she didn't want to. After all, she was her daughter. Even if she did something wrong, she couldn't remember it for the rest of her life.
But Zhou Yuan has never come back to visit until now, as if he has forgotten this home.
Xue Guiqin was relieved to hear that her elder sister was also worried. She couldn't bear all the trouble.
