“I am agreeing to her request now, which not only serves to appease her but also makes it clear to her that her family will meet her reasonable needs, but this is within a time limit and only for legitimate needs.”
After listening to what Song Lan said, Qin Yanzheng felt inferior and said, "You are better than me." She is six years younger than him and not much older than his younger brother and sister-in-law, but she is very good at teaching children, which shows that she knows a lot and is knowledgeable.
"I'm just looking at the problem from a different perspective. Take my second sister for example. I imagine I'm her, wanting to buy a pair of leather shoes. How would I feel if I couldn't get them?"
As Song Lan spoke, she smiled and said, "Besides, I really don't think there's anything wrong with girls loving beauty. Of course, the same goes for boys. After all, there's an old saying, 'Respect the clothes before respecting the person.' Of course, that's not entirely true, but dressing appropriately will definitely give people a better first impression."
Furthermore, my promise to my second sister was based on our family's current circumstances. If we didn't have the means, I would naturally find other ways to appease her, or even dissuade her from the idea.
Qin Boyan: "My salary passbook is in my former work unit dormitory. In a while, someone should deliver it to my home along with my personal belongings from the dormitory. I will then give you the salary passbook. If you need money, you can have Wu Dong go to the bank in the city to withdraw it."
Also, after Wu Dong helps me collect my future salary, he will also send it to you.
"..."
Is this a complete handover of the entire treasury to her?! Song Lan was taken aback for a moment, then replied, "Okay."
“My salary isn’t low, and I have the money in my salary savings account, so you won’t need to use your salary for household expenses in the future.” To avoid Song Lan’s misunderstanding, Qin Yanzheng quickly added, “What I mean is, you can save your salary, or buy more nutritional supplements for your parents-in-law to help them improve their health.”
While massaging the man, Song Lan casually asked, "Which two are you referring to, father-in-law and mother-in-law?"
Qin Yanzheng replied without hesitation: "I acknowledge parents who are good to you as my parents-in-law; if you don't acknowledge those who are not good to you, then since we are husband and wife, I will naturally respect your wishes and stand on your side."
"I understand what you mean."
Song Lan said, "Even if my adoptive parents have many faults, they still raised me and spent a lot of money to educate me. I will support them in accordance with national regulations in the future. As for daily interactions, I will just treat them as ordinary relatives."
"I have no objection."
Qin Yanzheng gave a reply.
Song Lan: "Thank you!"
"You said thank you to me?"
Qin Yanzheng's tone was full of surprise, yet also tinged with discomfort.
Thank you for your understanding.
Song Lan seemed to guess what the man was thinking. She smiled and said, "I don't want to be distant with you. I really appreciate your understanding, instead of thinking I'm cold-hearted or an ingrate."
I thought to myself: This person probably doesn't know that I've fallen out with my adoptive parents. Should I tell him?
Unsurprisingly, Qin Yanzheng heard Song Lan's thoughts, but his face remained calm and showed no sign of anything amiss.
"Qin Yanzheng".
Song Lan called out to the other person.
"Um?"
Qin Yanzheng turned to her and said, "Tell me what's wrong, I'm listening."
"Because of a small matter, I had a falling out with my adoptive parents, so I unilaterally severed ties with them." Song Lan didn't plan to tell Qin Yanzheng the specifics of the conflict with her adoptive parents, not because she felt she couldn't tell him, but because she didn't want to affect his mood.
After all, her adoptive parents were demanding that she divorce and remarry. If Qin Yanzheng found out about this, he might not know what to think.
Based on this, Song Lan believed that it was better to avoid trouble than to cause more problems.
However, after listening to her words, Qin Yanzheng remained silent for a moment before asking, "Did your adoptive parents do something to make things difficult for you?" If not, given her character, it was impossible for her to propose severing ties.
Well, even though he hadn't spent much time with Song Lan, in Qin Yanzheng's mind, Song Lan's character was absolutely flawless; in fact, one could say she was pure and kind.
He had no intention of scheming against others whatsoever.
"Qin Yanzheng... I don't want to lie to you, but I'd like to tell you about the conflict between my adoptive parents and me after you've fully recovered, is that alright?"
Song Lan stopped massaging and looked directly at the man.
Upon hearing this, Qin Yanzheng's lips twitched, and he nodded slightly: "Alright, if you don't want to say now, then don't." What could it be? Maybe I should ask my second brother later!
What Song Lan was thinking about right now was to find some time to remind Qin Boyan, Qin Yaxin, and the two little ones, so that they wouldn't accidentally let Qin Yanzheng trick them into revealing information or let slip that her adoptive parents were asking her to get a divorce.
[Should we go and tell my second brother and sister-in-law later?]
Qin Yanzheng was caught off guard by Song Lan's thoughts and wondered to himself: What is she going to say to my second brother and the others? Could it be... could it be that she wants them not to mention the conflict between her and her adoptive parents in front of him?
Time passed slowly, and Song Lan left Qin Yanzheng's room at approximately 9:15.
She originally planned to go straight back to her own room to rest, but seeing that the lights in Qin Boyan and Qin Yaxin's rooms were on, she did not hesitate and went straight to Qin Boyan's room.
Knock knock knock!
He knocked on the door, then Song Lan asked, "Second brother, are you asleep?"
"No!"
Qin Boyan's voice came quickly out, and then the door was opened from the inside: "What brings you here, sister-in-law?"
"Um."
Song Lan nodded and said, "Go and call Second Sister over, remember to keep your voice down."
Upon hearing this, Qin Boyan was a little confused, but he still listened to his sister-in-law Song Lan and went to call Qin Yaxin.
Before long, the brother and sister appeared together in front of Song Lan.
"Sister-in-law, what's wrong?"
Qin Boyan closed the door and looked at Song Lan. Qin Yaxin, who was standing next to him, also focused her gaze on Song Lan.
“Before we arrived at the branch factory, my adoptive parents asked me to get a divorce, along with the rumors that were circulating at the time. I hope you won’t bring them up at home.”
With a calm and composed gaze, Song Lan slowly said, "It's not that I'm afraid of anything, nor is it that I want to hide it from your eldest brother. It's just that your eldest brother's current situation is rather special, and I want to avoid him overthinking things."
This will affect his physical recovery. I've already told him that once he's fully recovered, he can then fully explain the conflicts between me and my adoptive parents.
"Don't worry, sister-in-law, I won't say anything bad in front of my brother."
Qin Boyan made a promise, and then he turned his gaze to Qin Yaxin: "Watch your mouth!"
"You're peeking through the crack in the door again!"
Glaring at Qin Boyan, Qin Yaxin said, "I'm not a blabbermouth. Besides, my sister-in-law is thinking about my brother's health. I'm not stupid enough to go to my brother and say nonsense for his own good!"
