Chapter 33: Chapter 33: Big Sister Owes You This Favor
Whether shoes fit or not, whether your heart aches or not, only you yourself can truly know. Qi Fenglian, seeing her sister-in-law who was also a woman, ultimately couldn’t hold back her compassion and started to cry.
"Oh, don’t cry. Stop crying. If our mother cos back and sees this, she’ll definitely bla
for making you cry." Seeing her cry, Cheng Su quickly tried to comfort her: "Mother already dislikes
enough as it is, and if she sees you crying, she might even say that I bullied you!"
Qi Fenglian was feeling utterly dejected, but at Cheng Su’s words, she let out a laugh through her tears, crying and laughing at the sa ti.
Cheng Su let out a sigh and ordered Qi Fengping, "Hey girl, go fetch so hot water and bring a towel for your elder sister to wipe her face."
Qi Fengping was busy cleaning her fingernails, and upon hearing this, she glared in protest: "Why should I have to do it!"
"If you don’t go, I’ll tell your mother-in-law. I’ll say that you took your elder sister outside, which made her upset!" Cheng Su feigned severity.
"You, you malicious woman!" Qi Fengping pointed at her and yelled loudly.
Qi Fenglian, not wanting Cheng Su to lose face, quickly said, "Fengping, please go, I appreciate your effort."
Qi Fengping snorted and took the peony flower-patterned hot water kettle, but before leaving, she voiced her resentnt at Cheng Su: "I’m listening to my elder sister, definitely not to you!"
Cheng Su just smiled and said nothing.
Once the door closed, Qi Fenglian took a careful look at Cheng Su’s expression and cautiously said, "Don’t take it to heart; Fengping didn’t an it, she’s just a child, she doesn’t understand."
"Would I really hold a grudge against such a young girl?" Cheng Su laughed off the matter and pulled the blanket over Qi Fenglian, covering her properly, "Rather it’s you who shouldn’t talk too much, you need to focus on recovering!"
Qi Fenglian sighed deeply and said, "Fengping told
about them, the Zhang family was originally biased toward sons."
As soon as she said this, her eyes reddened again.
Cheng Su inwardly cursed the girl for her loose lips.
"Now that you know, I won’t say much. What’s done is done. The child is already born, so don’t be all sad and lancholic. You should sit through your confinent period properly, that’s the main thing. As for the Zhang family, you’ve seen what they’re like, it’s not worth being upset over such people. Now that you have both a son and a daughter, just focus on recovering and raising the kids. With the Zhang family, well, if you’re willing to stay with them, stay, but if you don’t want to anymore, it’s not the end of the world to get a divorce. Able-bodied as you are, you’re not going to starve to death, are you?" Cheng Su consoled her.
Qi Fenglian was taken aback.
Seeing her shocked expression, Cheng Su guessed she might have frightened her, and knowing that Qi Fenglian probably shared Mother Qi’s mindset, she made light of it with a laugh, "Hehe, just pretend I’m talking nonsense, now get so rest, your complexion is awful!"
Qi Fenglian pursed her lips and said, "Actually, without you ntioning it, I’ve thought about leaving him countless tis. I just can’t bear to part with Yunyun, and also, on regular days, he isn’t really bad to . But now with how Old Zhang’s family treats , my heart has turned cold. Like you said, if I can’t bear it anymore, I’ll just leave. I’ll take my children and live on."
"That’s the right way to think. Let
tell you, tis have changed; it’s not like how it was in the old society anymore. Won can survive without n and can hold up half the sky. As long as you want a good life for yourself, you’ll definitely be able to have it. For now, you just need to focus on recovering your health - that’s where your strength for anything else cos from!"
Qi Fenglian nodded and looked deeply at this woman. Everyone said she was no good, and no one in the family liked her. Even she herself used to think Cheng Su wasn’t good enough for her brother, but now, she thought Cheng Su wasn’t so bad after all. If it weren’t for her, she probably wouldn’t have been able to make it through.
"Sister-in-law, I really owe you one this ti," Qi Fenglian suddenly said as she took Cheng Su’s hand.
