Chapter 454: Chapter 449 Xie Jinghong’s Troubles 04

———————

"Second Sister, you’re being unreasonable. Why can’t our nieces and nephews drink this formula?

Don’t worry about running out or anything, I made sure to bring enough when I came back! Okay, I’ve mixed it already, you watch the kids drink their milk. We can talk about anything else privately later, let’s not worry Mom, okay?"

Yan Jinsu smiled and handed the water jar cup to her older sister before whispering the last sentence so only the two of them could hear.

Seeing Xie Jinghong nod in understanding, Yan Jinsu finally smiled openly and said to Zhou Xiuhua:

"Mom, keep Second Sister company and look after the kids, I’ll go cook dinner."

"Sure, go ahead." Zhou Xiuhua hadn’t seen her eldest daughter for a long time, especially since she hurried back, not even willing to wait overnight. She was brimming with things to ask her daughter as soon as she saw them arrive that day.

"You two have a good chat, Hong’er, don’t distress your mom with any upsetting matters, she can’t handle it. After dinner, we can discuss your family issues in detail, got it?"

Xie Tiesheng immediately stood up just like Yan Jinsu, giving the room to the others before leaving. Before he left, he also warned his eldest daughter.

"Hey, Dad, got it." Xie Jinghong blushed with embarrassment and nodded repeatedly.

With the seven kids in the room, it wasn’t really appropriate for her to show a long face and complain to her mom!

The mother and daughter didn’t actually have time for heart-to-heart talks, because barely two minutes after Yan Jinsu went out, Xie Jingwei arrived with Xiao Yi, Xiao’er, and Xiao Wu.

Suddenly, the old Xie home was filled with laughter.

Xie Jinghong looked around and was surprised not to see her sister-in-law. She felt displeased deep down.

She only greeted her older brother with a slight nod, gave a few instructions to her nephews, and then stood up. After entrusting the kids to her mom, she went to the kitchen to help her younger sister-in-law.

This left Xie Jingwei scratching his head awkwardly several times, before calling out guiltily to his parents:

"Dad, Mom..."

"Enough, it’s entirely up to you whether you come or not. We’re old and just want to spend our days in peace!" Xie Tiesheng coughed coldly, feeling truly disappointed in his eldest son.

In the kitchen, Yan Jinsu saw her second sister roll up her sleeves and come in, hurriedly smiling and saying: "Second Sister, you don’t need to help here, I can handle it by myself."

Mr. Xie saw that the firewood was burning well and he himself was chased out by Yan Jinsu. Just then, Xie Jingwei came in with the kids, so Mr. Xie was sent to chat with his elder brother and grandkids.

After such a long time, what elderly person doesn’t miss their children and grandchildren?

"Hey, it’s too noisy outside, I think Dad is very happy, though Mom seems a bit unhappy. Why didn’t the sister-in-law come?" Xie Jinghong was just making casual conversation. Ever since her mom went to live with her third brother in the military, she had not returned even once.

She had no idea about the troublesome things happening in her elder brother’s family.

"Oh~ Not sure, maybe she had urgent matters at her parents’ home." Yan Jinsu shrugged. She had never cared much whether her sister-in-law came to help or not.

Now, without Jiang Xiaoying, she really felt the absence of someone by her side, with no one to help look after the two kids — she was really not used to it, and felt uneasy even taking an extra step without them.

"Right, you’re always so patient. Let me help you cook. Do we have any vegetables at home?" Xie Jinghong saw prepared food in the kitchen but no fresh vegetables. Thinking of her brother’s carelessness, coming empty-handed, not even thinking to bring some meat or—
