Shuangzhu Village.
The Xu Family beca the talk of the town because of Xu Jiaojiao’s affair, and Zhao Juxiang was so angry she got into an argunt with soone and stord back ho.
In Xu Nianhua’s family, nobody said anything, but those gossipy old won wouldn’t stop yapping, which was driving everyone mad.
"Second sister-in-law is back," Xu Qinghu greeted Zhao Juxiang with a smile and said, "Who upset second sister-in-law to make her so angry?"
Speaking of Xu Qinghu, the youngest girl in the family, the Xu family had one daughter and two sons regardless if it was Xu Qinghe or Xu Qingjiang, the brothers, or Xu Qinghu the sister, they each had three children, two sons, and one daughter.
"It’s nothing," Zhao Juxiang originally ca back fuming, but how could she possibly share the foolish things Xu Jiaojiao had done?
She definitely wouldn’t ntion her own son not getting into university, and said indifferently, "Why didn’t you bring the kids back with you?"
"Well, there was an issue, and I was worried about disturbing Mom," Xu Qinghu replied cheerfully, looking much younger than Zhao Juxiang despite being a few years younger. She wore pristine clothes, crisp and clean, and a pair of shiny small leather shoes on her feet.
Xu Qinghu had her hair cut short and styled in a currently fashionable curly haircut, and her face seed to have snow cream on it, giving off a fragrant scent.
Comparing people could really make one frustrated to death.
Thinking about her son not getting into university made Zhao Juxiang’s heart ache.
"Second sister-in-law, it’s alright that Zhiyuan didn’t get into university this ti. There’s always next year, right?" Xu Qinghu consoled her.
Her heart already ached, and with Xu Qinghu’s words, Zhao Juxiang felt the pain even more. She started to peel the edama she had picked, saying, "The college entrance exam has just been reinstated; it’s not so easy to fail, is it? Not to speak of my Zhiyuan, even Nian’an didn’t get in, right?"
"Right, Zhiyuan will definitely get in next year," Xu Qinghu went along with her, praising, before disclosing to Liu Sani the purpose of her visit.
"Mom, where’s eldest sister-in-law?" Xu Qinghu was not aware of the separation and had thought that after sitting for a while, she would see the eldest sister-in-law Ji Ying. However, after waiting for quite a while, Ji Ying was nowhere to be seen.
"They have moved out."
Thinking about how much more comfortable the house had beco after the separation, and how they even left a room for Zhihao and his wife, Liu Sani felt that the separation had been a good decision.
"Ah?" Xu Qinghu looked towards Liu Sani in surprise.
"Your eldest brother and sister-in-law think our temple is too small and have moved to the old house," Liu Sani didn’t want to talk about Ji Ying’s family.
Xu Qinghu’s eyes shifted, not knowing the reason for the separation, but sure that the honest eldest brother and sister-in-law wouldn’t have been the ones to initiate it. Perhaps an incident had occurred, but what did it have to do with her?
"Mom, it’s like this. I ca back today to propose marriage for Nianhua," Xu Qinghu just explained her reason for coming.
Zhao Juxiang and Liu Sani both looked at Xu Qinghu in shock.
"Mom, it’s a good thing this ti," Xu Qinghu said with a beaming smile. "Isn’t Fu Song working at the brick factory? The owner of the brick factory has a son who took a fancy to Nianhua. They asked , as her aunt, to play matchmaker, and I thought it was a good thing. So, I made a special trip back to talk about it."
"Eldest sister-in-law isn’t ho, so I’ll go directly to her place." As soon as Xu Qinghu finished speaking, Liu Sani said, "Hold on, co inside first."
Zhao Juxiang, all ears and eager to hear more, was suddenly cut off by Liu Sani’s interjection and thought indignantly, Oh, are they trying to keep sothing from her?
