Li Jumei didn't elaborate on what happened next; instead, she changed the subject: "After the New Year, why haven't I seen my niece?"
“Your father and I forbid that girl from coming to our door. She's about the same age as Lanlan, but she doesn't take marriage seriously at all. Her first marriage was to Xiao Yu through trickery.”
Unexpectedly, the marriage lasted only a year before they decided to divorce, and she even abandoned her newborn child.
Not long after her divorce, she got married again, this time to a young man from the Wang family who lived in the same compound as our family and the Xiao family.
What kind of mess has she made of all this?
She has truly disgraced your father, your third son, and me, and has even created a rift with the Xiao family because of this good-for-nothing.
How could we possibly let her continue to roam freely in this house?!
Li Jumei opened her mouth, but ultimately said nothing.
Grandpa Chen and Song Sanhe chatted quietly, while Song Lan sat quietly beside Grandma Chen, listening to her conversation with Li Jumei.
Well, actually, I was just listening to Grandma Chen talking.
Li Jumei didn't say much.
-
After having dinner at the Chen family's house, Song Lan and Song Sanhe were driven back to the Qin family's house by Wang Haifeng.
Needless to say, Da Bao and Er Bao were carried home by Song Lan and Li Jumei.
"Sister-in-law."
Second floor, Qin Yaxin's room.
Looking at Song Lan, Qin Yaxin felt a little uneasy, wondering why her sister-in-law, Song Lan, had called her upstairs to talk alone.
"Don't you have anything you want to say to me?"
Qin's father, Song Sanhe and his wife, along with their five and six children, were all in the living room on the first floor, playing with their two children.
At this moment, Qin Yaxin's room was occupied only by her and her sister-in-law, Song Lan.
What should I say to my sister-in-law?
Qin Yaxin was completely confused.
"I wanted to call you before the New Year to have a chat, but I was too busy with work here and couldn't find the time."
"I was waiting for your older brother to bring you all back to Beijing for the New Year, but I didn't want to spoil the holiday, so I only just now had time to talk to you properly."
Song Lan sat in the chair in front of the desk, looking directly at Qin Yaxin with a serious expression, and said, "Think carefully about what you should say to me."
Qin Yaxin remained confused.
What should she say?
Upon careful reflection, Qin Yaxin couldn't recall doing anything wrong...
"Can't remember?"
Song Lan asked.
"Sister-in-law, I don't think I did anything wrong while you were working in Beijing. Have you heard anyone say anything like that...?"
Qin Yaxin suddenly stopped speaking. She remembered something, and her expression instantly turned ugly. She asked, "Sister-in-law, did Qin Yaqing say something bad about me to you?"
"Change the way you address me!"
Song Lan unconsciously exuded her full aura. Looking at her, Qin Yaxin couldn't help but shiver. She shifted her body on the edge of the bed to keep her distance from Song Lan.
"Sister-in-law~"
Hopefully, acting cute will have some effect.
Qin Yaqing felt that Song Lan was very intimidating at this moment, making her not only afraid to speak loudly, but even having to be careful with her breathing.
"The peaceful and stable life we enjoy today is thanks to the blood and lives of countless revolutionary martyrs. To live up to their sacrifices, we must live, work, and study with dedication."
And have you done that?
Song Lan's expression was solemn: "Furthermore, haven't I told you that you should do things appropriate for your age? To put it simply, if you're currently studying, you should focus entirely on your studies."
Otherwise, you would be letting down your family who has supported you, you yourself, and the revolutionary martyrs who have passed away!
Qin Yaxin was ashamed by what was said, but she... but she really had nothing to do with Gu Xingchen anymore. It was all Qin Yaqing's fault for talking nonsense to her sister-in-law without knowing the truth, causing her to be criticized by her sister-in-law now!
"Sister-in-law, I was wrong..."
Collecting her thoughts, Qin Yaxin met Song Lan's calm yet sharp gaze and said, "I shouldn't have gotten close to a male classmate named Gu Xingchen in our class."
But sister-in-law, I've always remembered what you told me, so... so I quickly distanced myself from that Gu Xingchen.
It was Gu Xingchen who didn't want to. That day, when he saw me on the town street about to go back to school, he grabbed my hand in a hurry. My older sister happened to see this scene and then she misunderstood me...
"Sister-in-law, I'm not lying to you. I really have broken off all ties with Gu Xingchen. I promise you this: when the new semester starts, no matter what Gu Xingchen says to me, I won't listen to him. Please believe me this once, okay?"
Qin Yaxin was very serious; she was practically swearing an oath.
Seeing that she didn't seem to be lying, Song Lan's expression softened: "You need to know, it's not that your sister-in-law doesn't want you to have a boyfriend, she just wants you to focus on your studies during your school years."
When you start working in the future, as an adult, your sister-in-law will definitely support you in finding a partner.
Even so, you can't just start a relationship with anyone casually. You have to first assess the other person's character and, at the same time, protect yourself.
"You absolutely shouldn't do things before marriage, otherwise, as a girl, you'll definitely suffer a great loss, do you understand?"
"Understood, I will remember what you said, sister-in-law."
She could tell the difference between good and bad words, and knew that her sister-in-law was doing it for her own good, so that she would teach and advise her to prevent her from going down the wrong path and regretting it for the rest of her life!
"I don't want to hear or see you being disrespectful to your older sister again."
A family should live in harmony. Your eldest sister did make some mistakes before, but who can guarantee that they will never make a mistake in life?
It's a good thing that she can admit her mistakes and correct them. As her family, we are pleased that she has acknowledged and corrected her errors.
What you need to do is to accept her again and care about her, instead of acting like you did before, where you treated your older sister like dirt and wanted to argue with her the moment you saw her.
People are all made of flesh and blood. If you treat your older sister like that for a long time, do you think she will feel good about it?
But do you feel any better about it?
