Zhou Yanchen and his wife had just gotten home from get off work. They originally planned to sit down and rest for a while before going to the kitchen to cook dinner together. However, before they could even sit down in the living room, they heard Zhou Shiwei's urgent voice, which was tinged with anger.
The couple exchanged a glance, got up, and walked out of the living room.
"What happened?"
Zhou Yanchen asked.
"I told you before, but you didn't believe me. Now look what's happened, Yuan Xiaoya is here again!"
Zhou Shiwei set up her bike stand and stood in the yard, saying to Zhou Yanchen and his wife, "She's been waiting at the gate of our school. As soon as she sees me pushing my bike out of the school gate, she calls out to me. I don't have time to think about it, I'm afraid she'll stick to me, so I hurriedly ride my bike home. What should we do now?"
Where is Xiaoya?
Zhou Yanchen looked towards the courtyard gate but did not see Yuan Xiaoya.
“I ride fast, she’s behind me. If you and Mom don’t believe me, you can stand in the yard and wait. I guarantee she’ll be there in two or three minutes!”
Bloodsucking worms!
Yuan Xiaoya, that damned bloodsucker, is she really going to have no shame?
They actually disregarded their self-respect and tried to take advantage of her family again. Very well, let's see how she humiliates them later!
Zhou Shiwei walked towards Zhou Yanchen and his wife, stopping beside her mother, Li Yao. The three of them looked towards the courtyard gate.
Needless to say, they were waiting for Yuan Xiaoya to appear.
Time passed second by second. Qin Boyan rode his bicycle with Qin Yaxin to the gate of his own yard. At the same time, Zhou Shiyan appeared at the gate of his yard on his bicycle. Behind him, Yuan Xiaoya squeezed the brakes and got off her own bicycle. When she looked up and saw Zhou Yanchen and his wife, tears streamed down her face.
"Uncle! Aunt!"
She greeted the two of them with a sob in her voice, her sobs tinged with grievance.
Who hit him?
Zhou Yanchen's face was expressionless. He asked in a deep voice as Yuan Xiaoya approached.
Upon hearing this, Yuan Xiaoya only kept crying and did not respond for a long time.
"Are you trying to make my parents cry? Yuan Xiaoya, stop playing the victim. Speak your mind, or shut up. My family isn't letting you stay overnight. You'd better get back to where you came from before it gets completely dark!"
Zhou Shiwei unleashed a torrent of abuse at Yuan Xiaoya, as if she had fired a machine gun.
"Weiwei!"
Li Yao shook her head in disapproval, signaling Zhou Shiwei to stop talking.
"Mom, what do you mean? You won't let me talk about it? Are you going to let Yuan Xiaoya stay overnight?!"
Ignoring everything else, Zhou Shiwei immediately retorted to her mother, Li Yao, and then turned her gaze back to Yuan Xiaoya, her tone full of sarcasm: "Think about your former status as a young lady from a wealthy family. How arrogant you were back then! You despised poor relatives who came to your door to beg for money. But what about you now?"
"You're like a mangy dog. My parents gave you two hundred-yuan bills and some ration coupons because we're relatives. It's only been a week or so, and you've already squandered all the money and coupons, are you going to come back to my house and ask for more, making my parents suck up and feed you like a mangy dog?"
Yuan Xiaoya wanted nothing more than to tear Zhou Shiwei to pieces, but her face was full of hurt. She didn't look at Zhou Shiwei, but instead said to Zhou Yanchen, "Uncle, I... I didn't mean to bother you and Aunt. I really had no other choice but to come to you for help..."
Because of my family's situation, the other educated youth in the educated youth compound ostracized me. They... they often mocked and ridiculed me, and I... I've never been very healthy since I was a child, and I really... really can't do farm work for long periods of time. Uncle, I beg you..."
"What do you want from my dad?"
Zhou Shiwei interrupted the other person, saying, "In the workplace, everyone has their own specific job. You're asking my dad to arrange a job for you, but why don't you think about who my dad should ask?"
Yuan Xiaoya, give up your wishful thinking. Since you've chosen to go to the countryside, then contribute to rural development. Otherwise, I have reason to suspect there's something wrong with your thinking!
The neighbor's yard.
Qin Boyan and Qin Yaxin did not enter the living room. Instead, they stood at the kitchen doorway with the twins who came out of the living room, watching the scene unfolding in the Zhou family's courtyard.
"Second brother and second sister-in-law, don't stand there. Take Xiao Wu to either sit in the living room or go back to your rooms to do your homework."
Song Lan's voice drifted out of the kitchen.
"Understood, sister-in-law."
Qin Boyan responded and then invited Qin Yaxin and the two children to the living room. However, while the two children were led away by him, Qin Yaxin stood outside the kitchen door without moving. She wanted to stay and watch the show.
"Second sister, come in."
Noticing out of the corner of her eye that Qin Yaxin hadn't left, Song Lan called her into the kitchen.
"Sister-in-law."
Qin Yaxin reluctantly turned her gaze away from the Zhou family's courtyard. She walked into the kitchen, sat on a small stool in front of the stove, glanced at the steam rising from the gap in the pot lid, and asked, "Are you steaming buns in the pot?"
"Xiao Wu and Xiao Liu wanted to eat steamed buns, so I fulfilled their little wish."
Song Lan replied with a smile.
"Sister-in-law, you spoil them too much. They're eating well with steamed buns and vegetables, why do they still want steamed buns? They really know how to make things difficult for us."
Qin Yaxin muttered to herself, and upon hearing this, Song Lan said, "It's not a big deal, so don't go and nag Xiao Wu and Xiao Liu about such a small matter."
"Knowing that you, sister-in-law, are protecting them, how could I dare?!"
Qin Yaxin hummed and said something. Upon hearing this, Song Lan laughed and said, "I don't just protect Xiao Wu and Xiao Liu. I protect all of you in the family!"
“I know that even my older brother is protecting him.”
As she spoke, Qin Yaxin chuckled and turned to Song Lan, asking, "Sister-in-law, is Brother Song getting married soon?"
"Um."
In the original storyline, Han Bailan married Song Qingbin as scheduled, but gave birth to a son prematurely a few months after the wedding. The original storyline did not explain this much, but Song Qingbin did not suspect that the son was not his, and the rest of the family did not have any objections. It can be seen that Han Bailan had taken measures before the marriage to make Song Qingbin and the rest of the Song family believe that the child in her womb was undoubtedly of Song family blood.
