"Third Sister-in-law, knowing you’re alright puts my mind at ease," Xie Jingzi murmured, gripping Yan Jinsu’s arm tightly and truly relieved.
Of course, she was genuinely concerned for the safety of her Third Sister-in-law. Although in her heart, Third Sister-in-law was always omnipotent, just like her Third Brother, exceedingly formidable. But facing something as dangerous as ’kidnapping,’ having experienced it herself, she was definitely very worried.
"Hey, worry less about me. Right now, only your Third Brother can handle me. As for the rest, hmph!" Saying this, Yan Jinsu made a fist with her small hand, triumphantly gesturing towards Xie Jingzi.
Honestly, being able to personally vent out the frustration of that innocent entanglement felt incredibly satisfying!
"..." Seeing Third Sister-in-law’s lively face and her ruffian-like fist-pumping gesture, Xie Jingzi’s expression stiffened, and she twitched the corners of her mouth:
Her Third Sister-in-law was still so strong and formidable, which was really great!
Seeing that Third Sister-in-law showed no signs of psychological trauma at all, Xie Jingzi finally let out a deep sigh of relief in her heart, feeling that the starry night sky was incredibly sparkling and wonderful.
"Alright, Xiaoqi, let your Third Sister-in-law and Third Brother first go upstairs to clean themselves up. They are so dirty; we wouldn’t want Xiaojiu and Xiao Shi to get uncomfortable."
These past few days without Second Aunt, the twin Xiaojiu and Xiao Shi from the Xie Family have been constantly crying. Xiao Si and Xiaoqi have become exceptionally well-behaved.
At this time of night, having already bathed, they went to sleep on their own.
With Xiao Shi crying and practicing his vocals from time to time, the noise was indeed bothersome and aggravating, so Xiao Si and Xiaoqi shared the same room for sleep.
Anyway, the two siblings were still young; sleeping together gave them more sense of security, and the Xie Family went along with that.
Yan Jinsu awkwardly looked at her tough exterior with a soft heart of a mother, but Xie Jingchen was completely unafraid of his mother’s stern demeanor and nodded his head, taking his wife upstairs.
Xie Tiesheng, of course, also knew that the most important thing for family togetherness was harmony, and such issues that could cause family conflict should be resolved as soon as possible, which was the right way to do things.
Thus, apart from asking Xiaoqi to take care of Bao’er with Jiang Xiaoying, Xie Tiesheng pulled his partner back to their room. Mr. Xie first brought a cup of warm water to his wife, and then began to explain:
"Xiuhua, you misunderstood little Ni just now." If only there were tobacco water, that would be nice.
Xie Tiesheng awkwardly met his partner’s confused gaze, silently grumbling to himself for a while, finally succumbing to his partner’s wellbeing.
After all, having a healthy spouse was his blessing.
"Ha, what—?"
Zhou Xiuhua, hearing Xie Tiesheng’s soft persuasion, initially thought the old man was taking the side of San’er and the rest. She hadn’t yet comprehended what he meant and continued to be confused by what Mr. Xie said next, which bewildered her.
"Xiuhua, previously, I was worried it would be too much for you, so I didn’t let the children tell you. Yesterday, when little Ni left our home, it wasn’t Third Son who picked her up. She was kidnapped by the granddaughter of Old Chief Liu."
"You, what are you saying?" Zhou Xiuhua widened her eyes.
She felt that life’s plot was more dramatic than anything seen on television.
"Little Ni, yes, she was kidnapped. Didn’t you see Third Son looking at you several times just now? Before, because I didn’t dare to tell you the truth, so..."
Third Son was blaming him for not having cleared things up with his own wife, causing his son’s wife to be scolded by her. This stinky boy, now he knows to be protective of his wife!
