Switched Marriage The Coddled Little Wife novel Chapter 508

Chapter 508: Chapter 508: I Understand, I Really Do

Little Ningning happily counted on her little fingers, "I finished all my homework. These days I’ve been playing at Grandma Jia’s house. Grandma Jia is so nice, every day she takes me and little brother Xiao Long, sometimes telling us stories, sometimes playing with sand with us, and Aunt Xue even bought us toys. I like playing with Grandma Jia and also like playing with little brother Xiao Long."

Lin Chuxia raised her eyebrows slightly, giving Qin Juan an imperceptible glance.

She knew of Jia Liang’s affection for her elder sister, and the elder sister had also made it clear that she did not want to delay Jia Liang, maintaining a distance from Jia Family’s mother and son. Even if Aunt Jia proactively offered to help during the weekends, the elder sister seldom left Ningning with Aunt Jia.

Qin Juan explained somewhat helplessly, "It poured that day, and Ningning had a high fever in the middle of the night. Jia Liang helped me take her to the hospital. After that, Aunt Jia looked after her for a couple of days. Since then, the child refuses to go to the shop with me and keeps clamoring to visit Aunt Jia," she said, finding herself in a bind with such a little traitor.

Besides, she couldn’t just force her not to go; that would make her seem too heartless and unforgiving.

Lin Chuxia quickly nodded, "I understand, I get it all."

Qin Juan: "..."

Somehow, she felt that ’I get it all’ from her sister-in-law was less comforting than ’I don’t understand’.

Forget it, let the sister-in-law think whatever she wants.

"Let’s first go to the department store; I need to buy some things."

She had gone to the Bun Shop early in the morning. The shop had been quite busy these days; only after it calmed down a bit did she take the child with her on the bus back home, still empty-handed.

Naturally, Lin Chuxia wouldn’t refuse. She opened the car door and let Little Ningning get in.

As she opened the driver’s door, she saw Qin Juan still standing there, squinting into the distance.

Lin Chuxia followed her gaze and indeed saw a familiar figure.

Mrs. Zhang, Zhang Wenbin’s mother, was at a long-distance bus station ahead, pulling on a young woman’s arm and talking about something.

The woman looked impatient, repeatedly trying to shake off Mrs. Zhang’s hand.

And Mrs. Zhang was even more persistent. Although on her tiny bound feet, she wobbled after the woman, gripping on her arm to prevent her from leaving.

From the occasional sound that reached over, it was possible to hear Mrs. Zhang scolding non-stop.

Both of them watched that way, and Little Ningning also turned her little head curiously.

But before she could get a clear look at the people in the distance, Lin Chuxia was one step ahead in turning her little head back.

"Sit tight, we are going to Grandma’s house soon."

Sure enough, a single sentence diverted her attention and she called out happily to Qin Juan, "Mommy, Mommy, get in the car quickly! We are going to Grandma’s house. I miss Grandma and Grandpa so much, also brother Zhuangzhuang. Mommy, can little sister play with me now? I want to take little sister to play with Niuniu."

Qin Juan also withdrew her gaze and said to her daughter with a smile as she got in the car, "Little sister is very young right now; she can’t go out and play with you. You have to wait until she grows up a bit more, but little sister, when she’s very small like this, is super super cute."

"Is she as cute as Ningning when I was little? Mommy always says Ningning was extremely cute when she was little."

Just thinking about it felt satisfying.

Today, although she missed out on the spectacle, others didn’t.

By now, a crowd had gathered at the bus station.

Mrs. Zhang was clinging onto her daughter and refusing to let go, "Do you have no conscience at all? I am your mother; you ungrateful wretch! You go off to live your life without concern for your mother’s wellbeing? Today, if you don’t explain yourself clearly, you won’t be going anywhere."

"Have you forgotten how you got your job? It was arranged by the family. Now your brother has lost his job, and instead of giving it to him, you sold it to someone else? How did I give birth to such an ungrateful wretch? Today, you have to clarify everything to me. If the job is gone, at least bring out the money from selling the job."

"Everyone, come and see, this is my own daughter. Look how she treats her mother. I raised her with hardship and even found her a job. Now that her days are good and she’s capable, she no longer wants a mother. Judge for yourselves, is there such a thing in this world?"

As Mrs. Zhang cried with a mix of snot and tears, the onlookers began to point and make comments about her daughter.

After all, in most people’s eyes, parents are never in the wrong.

Parents who raise their children and even find jobs for them deserve to be treated well by their children.

Mrs. Zhang’s daughter felt extremely humiliated, especially since her bus was about to leave, and she impatiently pushed Mrs. Zhang away.

"You’re the one who told me to cut ties with the family, you disowned me as your daughter. Because of having parents like you, how many years have I suffered disdain from my in-laws? That job was a compensation to me; I can deal with it as I please. How dare you still have the audacity to ask me for it? All this is what I am entitled to."
