Regardless of what Qin Yushen and Lin Xiaoxiao meant by returning on the second day of the Lunar New Year, someone always needs to stay at home when they come back. Without hesitation, Qin Jinye said to Yao Huixian...
"You take Huaijun with you, I'll stay at home."
"What do you mean?" Yao Huixian's eyes widened. "You're not coming with me?"
If she takes her son back alone, the neighbors will gossip endlessly.
That's so embarrassing.
Qin Jinye rubbed his temples. "I was confused. I forgot to tell you that the eldest son and his wife were coming back today."
Before the Lunar New Year, he went to his eldest son's house, and the two of them told him that they wouldn't be coming back for the family reunion. They said they wouldn't be available on the first day of the Lunar New Year, only on the second day. He didn't think much of it at the time and readily agreed.
We couldn't let them make a wasted trip since we'd already agreed to it.
Today, at least one person from the household must stay to entertain guests. It's impossible for Yao Huixian and Qin Huaijun; they have a grudge against each other.
He was the only one left.
"I can't worry about that. You have to come back to your parents' home with me today." Yao Huixian had been preparing for this trip since before the Lunar New Year, putting a lot of thought into it.
Although I often go back, today's significance is different.
Qin Jinye was promoted to mayor, and she planned to take him back to her family home to give them a show of honor, which would also be a way to make them proud.
She could compromise on other things, but not on this.
Qin Jinye frowned. "Not today, reschedule for tomorrow."
I need to visit my father-in-law, and I also need to entertain my son.
Things have priorities, and a day or two won't make a difference.
“No.” Yao Huixian refused without hesitation. “I have to go back today.”
Who doesn't go back to their parents' home on the second day of the Lunar New Year? If she doesn't go back today, rumors might start circulating tomorrow that she's getting a divorce from Qin Jinye.
She had witnessed firsthand how sharp the tongues of those gossipy women could be.
Qin Jinye had no intention of leaving. "Then you and Huaijun go back."
I've made up my mind to receive my eldest son and his wife first today.
He knew in his heart that his eldest son definitely didn't want to come back. It was already a surprise that he was able to come back to pay his respects for the New Year. If you told him to come back in a couple of days, you might not even be able to see him after the Lantern Festival.
Seeing his resolute attitude, Yao Huixian couldn't help but curse, "Those two must have done it on purpose, it's too much."
Why did she have to come back on the day she went back to her parents' home?
She ate it if it wasn't intentional.
Lin Xiaoxiao and Qin Yushen really didn't do it on purpose. On the first day of the Lunar New Year, someone came to pay New Year's visits. On the third day, they had to go to the Chu family. On the fourth day, they had to invite family and friends to dinner. After the fourth day, Qin Yushen had to go back to the army to be on duty. All in all, they only had time on the second day.
"Old Qin, you're not only biased, you're also completely biased. How can you be like this?"
Yao Huixian felt increasingly wronged and began to blame Qin Jinye.
Qin Jinye said helplessly, "There are priorities in everything. How can you be so unreasonable?"
In his position, he has many advantages, but also many things to consider.
If he wants to climb higher, he needs to leverage his strength.
Whose help did we borrow? The Chu family's help.
The Chu family clearly didn't listen to him, and the only breakthrough lay with his eldest daughter-in-law.
You don't necessarily have to please Lin Xiaoxiao, but you absolutely cannot offend her.
Chu Weinian has the ability to help him become mayor smoothly, and he also has the ability to bring him down.
He promised that his eldest son and his wife would come back today, so how can he go back on his word?
Yao Huixian didn't understand. She did understand and comprehended Qin Jinye's choice, but she was just unwilling to accept it.
Her daughter was sent to the desolate Northwest to plant trees, and her son suffered a lot of grievances in order to gain the old man's support. Why should Qin Yushen and Lin Xiaoxiao get what they dream of so easily?
Qin Jinye had wronged the mother and her two children countless times because of them.
A sense of frustration lingered in Yao Huixian's heart, which is why she was so calculating in everything she did.
Upon hearing Qin Jinye say that she was unreasonable, she instantly exploded, throwing the things in her hand to the ground and roaring, "I'm unreasonable? That little bastard isn't my child, why should I wrong myself for him?"
The words 'bastard' are both offensive and grating.
A hint of displeasure flashed in Qin Jinye's eyes. "This is utterly unreasonable."
Yao Huixian laughed angrily, "That bitch He Meng isn't being unreasonable. Why don't you go find her? Last time she found out she was coming to Beijing, didn't you rush over there too?"
"What nonsense are you talking about?" Qin Jinye stood up abruptly. Hearing He Meng's name, he felt the pain on his face, which had already healed, start to return.
She's a shrew; he feels ashamed to be associated with her.
This Yao Huixian is something else, always bringing up the very thing she shouldn't be talking about.
Yao Huixian stiffened her neck, not thinking that there was anything wrong with what she said.
Just as the two were about to have a big argument, Qin Huaijun came downstairs.
"Dad, Mom is right, you're really biased now."
The first thing they said was accusations.
After saying that, he walked to Yao Huixian's side. The mother and son were on the same side and joined forces to condemn the crooked-bottomed Qin Jinye.
Qin Jinye: "......."
Exhausted, she waved her hand and said, "Oh yes, yes, I admit I'm biased."
Explaining all this is just a waste of my breath.
This mother and son don't seem to realize how they treated Qin Yushen in the past; back then, he was truly biased.
Seeing Qin Jinye admit it, Yao Huixian snorted, "You're too biased. Aren't you afraid of upsetting your son?"
Qin Jinye snorted, "My eldest son has long been disheartened."
He didn't care whether he felt heartbroken or not; power, status, money, and reputation were the things men should pursue most.
