Transmigration: I Have Storage Space in the Apocalypse Chapter 337 - 333 What Was Being Cried About?
——————
Lin Zhaodi’s worries were not without reason, yet now she beca extrely timid, too afraid to dash about recklessly even if terrified.
Xie Jingchen returned to the county town’s small western-style building and told his parents that his little wife gets along with the other military spouses in the unit, so he suggested she stay a bit longer in the military.
Then he ntioned to Xie Jingyang the two job positions that Chief Tao had arranged for him.
One was to go to the middle school section of No.1 Middle School as a math teacher.
The other was to go to an administrative unit and work as a clerk.
The nature of the two jobs were quite similar, but one faced innocent children, while the other faced experienced adults.
Xie Jingyang thought it over; his personality was too gloomy, lacking emotional intelligence and not sweet-tongued, so he chose the simpler job of being a teacher.
Xie Jingchen nodded in support, "Your character indeed isn’t quite suitable for dealing with those old foxes. As long as you’ve figured it out for yourself, that’s good. Work hard for now. Although you’re only a middle school teacher at the mont, with the results you produce, rising in rank later is just a matter of seniority."
"Mm, don’t worry, Third Brother, I won’t give up on furthering my education. Following Third Sister-in-law’s words, my academic credentials are not really standard, I will self-study when I have ti, learning more is always good."
Xie Jingyang glanced at his two well-behaved children sitting in the corner, listening to their conversation; stability was the most important aspect of his life at present.
Only when he is settled can he take better care of his children.
"That’s right, you just focus on working, Brother Xiao Si, we can still help you take care of Xiaoqi and Xiao Si," Xie Jingzi nodded in agreent and then turned with a pitiful look to the Third Brother, saying,
"Third Brother, did Third Sister-in-law ntion when she might return?"
Lately, she really felt annoyed, with a clingy person beside her, and another little Princess who could cry and act cute... She felt that she was imdiately trapped by their sches, and surprisingly, neither the tall nor the small rascal seed to notice her reluctance, forcibly adding scenes.
Without Third Sister-in-law around, she even lacked soone she could confide in. Hence, she particularly wanted to know when Third Sister-in-law could co back.
"Let her stay a few more days, she should be staying here more often later," Xie Jingchen spread his hands, "Your Third Sister-in-law is being wrapped up by those military spouses learning to knit towels, she can’t get away."
The military spouses, apart from the ones who worked, many stayed in the military to take care of children. Previously, because the little wife had shown her skill in the military, indeed, many people sought her out, asking her to teach how to knit nice-looking towels, sweaters, and other items.
That was a fact, and he wasn’t lying. It could only be said that was an earlier situation. Now, with the little wife’s poor health, even if many military spouses wanted to visit, they felt embarrassed to do so, fearing that they would tire out Zhang Shanni, who had just experienced a pregnancy scare.
Most won who accompany their husbands in the military and beco military spouses were mothers.
Zhang Shanni’s situation had indeed earned the sympathy of a great many military spouses.
Fortunately, Yan Jinchang remained unmarried, or else if his wife were in the military, she would surely be driven away by these military spouses’ disdainful glances.
Never underestimate won’s gossiping ability.
"Oh~~" Xie Jingzi dragged her tone in disappointnt.
Even the hopeful-looking Xiao Si and Xiaoqi simultaneously slumped their little shoulders, with Xiaoqi pouting, "Ying ying, Uncle, please bring Aunt back soon~~ Xiaoqi misses Aunt~~ Little Yaya misses her too."
Without Zhang Shanni around, Xie Jingzi, who usually had school, didn’t have the sa craftsmanship as Zhang Shanni, and sotis when the children gathered, there were no cute and tasty treats.
Zhang Shanni’s sudden departure for a few days truly made Xiaoqi miss Second Aunt terribly. Although she was grumbling, her voice was loud enough for Xie Jingchen, her Second Uncle, to hear.
Xiao Si nodded in agreent as well.
Xie Tiesheng huffed lightly. If it weren’t for the need to keep a serious face, he would have nodded too.
With the absence of his Third Daughter-in-law, his partner seed to smile less. Without her to share the burden of the nagging old lady, his ears were about to develop calluses from listening.
The funniest thing was that most of what his partner babbled about was why his Third Daughter-in-law hadn’t returned yet.
Although Zhou Xiuhua didn’t say anything, the smile on her face had diminished.
This ti, Xie Jingchen clearly understood that his wife’s status in the family was now much higher than his own.
He had been back for so long, and nobody had asked him if he was tired or thirsty. His treatnt could only be described as having plumted dramatically.
Instead, seeing that only he had returned, the children and parents were all eagerly waiting to know when their wife/mother would co back... Tsk tsk, one could only say that his little wife had succeeded entirely in her role.
Hmm, she’s almost beco more important than him, the legitimate son.
"Xiaoqi is a good girl. When Second Aunt cos back, she’ll make sweet cakes for you!" Seeing her little niece about to cry, Xie Jingzi imdiately took the little girl into her arms and softly comforted her.
"Little aunt, I don’t want cakes, I want Second Aunt, I want my brothers and sisters~" Xiaoqi, usually compliant, now voiced her true feelings as soon as soone tried to coax her, with tears streaming down instantly – a sight of tears in a second!
"Alright, Xiaoqi be good, and Second Aunt will co back faster. If you’re not good, Second Aunt might ignore Xiaoqi."
Xie Jingzi was helpless, her several attempts at coaxing having no effect. Xie Jingyang was ready to take his daughter into his arms to comfort her, but the little girl clung to her little aunt’s neck, crying so earnestly that she wanted no one else but Second Aunt.
"Sister, be good~ If Second Aunt sees you all dirty from crying, she definitely won’t bother with you, you know~~" Xiao Si held his forehead; this threat was learned from Second Aunt.
Seeing Xiaoqi quiet down imdiately upon hearing Xiao Si’s words, then pondering before taking out the little handkerchief made by Second Aunt and dabbing her tears, the adults exchanged looks, amazed at how quickly this tactic worked!
"Brother, am I clean now?" Xiaoqi jumped out of her little aunt’s embrace and took Xiao Si’s hand, looking up at Brother Xiao Si with hopeful eyes.
"Uh... Sister, I think the way you wiped, Second Aunt definitely won’t even bother with you... You should go wash your face with water to get it really clean."
Xiao Si, having recently spent more ti with Second Aunt, had also beco slightly obsessed with cleanliness. If it weren’t for the fact that it was his dear sister’s hand he was holding, he would’ve let go long ago.
"Oh, then, brother, please help wring the towel, I’m not strong enough." Saying this, Xiaoqi pulled Xiao Si away from the living room couch and happily followed his steps.
Where was the mory of what she was crying about just before?
Xie Jingchen: My little niece is so easy to placate. I wonder, will my own daughter be this innocently sensible in the future?
Xie Jingyang: What about the promised affectionate little cotton-padded jacket? Whose daughter is she after all!
Xie Jingzi suddenly let out a ’pfft’ and laughed, then turned to her mother and said: "Mother, even though Third Sister-in-law isn’t here, her influence persists. Look at how well Xiao Si has Xiaoqi under control, he gets it right every ti!"
Truly adorable, isn’t she!
