"Put oneself in others’ shoes, Qin Yang felt that if one married under those circumstances, no matter what, he had to treat his wife with utmost respect and care."
"The saying goes - a wife from humble beginnings should not be deceived."
"Especially since the older sister is beautiful, gentle, virtuous, and well-mannered."
"However, Lin Chuxia was not so optimistic."
"One can tell if a person is living well from their eyes."
"Qin Juan’s eyes only sparkled when she mentioned her parental home, filled with joy."
"But when Lin Chuxia asked about her in-laws, although her words didn’t reveal anything, her gaze was entirely different from when she mentioned the Qin Family."
"Moreover, Ningning’s temperament is also a big problem."
"Children from happy families are confident and sunny, and might even become spoiled brats and little tyrants; either way, they shouldn’t be like Ningning."
"Seeing Ningning reminded Lin Chuxia of Sister-in-law Feng’s Feng Jingjing; although Ningning was slightly better, she was just timid."
"But that cautious demeanor made people feel..."
"What are you thinking about?"
"Seeing her lost in thought, Qin Yang asked again."
"Lin Chuxia shook her head, hoping it was just her overthinking."
"Today, she inadvertently saw the older sister’s hands; those were definitely not the hands of someone living an easy life."
"But none of this could prove anything."
"If you’re really worried, let’s visit this weekend, I miss my sister too."
"A few days later, I told my sister today that we’d visit this weekend; she said it’s inconvenient, I promised her we’d go another time."
"That works too."
"Both of them got the filling and dough ready and then started making dumplings together."
"Lin Chuxia rolled the wrappers, and Qin Yang filled them, finishing them in no time."
"The shredded pork and loofah stuffed dumplings, with thin wrappers and tender filling, burst with meaty and loofah flavors and even had a savory broth – both Lin Chuxia and Qin Yang loved this alike."
"It’s a pity that the older sister didn’t stay for the meal, she likes it too, so Mom used to grow a lot of loofah every year; back when we were poor, we couldn’t afford much meat, maybe just add an egg."
"Qin Yang reminisced about his childhood."
"Every time, the dumplings were counted; my older brother and I were big eaters, and we would never have enough during good meals, so dad and mom would eat a little and prod us to eat more, and my older sister, fearing I couldn’t beat my brother, would secretly give me her share. Once, she overfed me so much that I had indigestion for two days while she went hungry."
"Lin Chuxia couldn’t help but laugh, ’Why were you so gluttonous?’"
"Was this the Qin Yang she had understood before?"
"Qin Yang shrugged helplessly, ’I was young then, unaware of being full when eating, and we could eat white flour dumplings only a few times a year, of course, everyone wanted to devour them.’"
"Your relationships with each other are really good," Lin Chuxia sincerely lamented."
"In the Lin Family, it’s also three siblings, but all they did was scheme against each other."
"In her past life, the eldest sister had always been scheming how much money she could get from her, using mom and brother without hesitation."
"The brother was simple-minded and was used as a pawn in the schemes by her mom and older sister."
"And she spent her life figuring out how to keep her family honest, so they wouldn’t disrupt her life."
