Transmigration: I Have Storage Space in the Apocalypse novel Chapter 500

Chapter 500: Chapter 495: Going Back to Hometown Troublesome Matter 30 [Explosive Update 24]

——————

Xie Jinghong knew a little about the old affairs of the family, but she was not very clear on the details, as they all concerned the senior generation, and Fan Jiefang was not a talkative person, so her understanding was partial and fragmented.

Fan Jiefang immediately started telling her all about the old affairs of the Fan Family, from beginning to end.

After listening, Xie Jinghong wanted nothing more than to crack her brother-in-law’s head open and see if it was filled with nothing but black scum and poisonous eggs.

Just over ten years old, and he was able to play adults like puppets; no wonder her husband couldn’t outsmart him, and even her mother-in-law had been deceived by him for over a decade!

However, considering who Li Xiaochun was as a person, Xie Jinghong found it hard to feel any sympathy for her.

The old lady voluntarily turning to Buddhism might just be the best outcome.

After the adoption controversy was resolved, Xie Jinghong still insisted on staying a few more days at her maternal home because she could see that her elder sister-in-law, who had just returned to Qingfeng Village, was simply overwhelmed with caring for both the elderly and the children.

She couldn’t just resolve her own matters and then wash her hands clean and leave.

Besides, during these days staying at her maternal home, she truly found that her elder sister-in-law was very capable at parenting; her own three children had become not only fond of washing their hands and faces but also obedient and sensible.

In the past, whenever the children had something delicious, they would never think to offer their mother a bite but would instead eat their own share. This was seen by Xie Jinghong as a sign they were already well-taught and obedient.

But when compared to Xiao Si and Xiaoqi, she felt like she had been shot through the heart with arrows!

Her nephews Xiao Si and Xiaoqi, whenever they had tasty food or anything they deemed good, would always make sure to offer a bite to their elders before taking a bite themselves.

It might just be a small bite, but it was the essence of love and filial piety.

Da Hong and her siblings were still young, and children naturally love to imitate their peers. Da Hong learned from Xiao Si and Xiaoqi, and seeing the children behave like this, Xie Jinghong thought it was well worth any effort for the sake of the children.

Yan Jinsu woke up thinking that her elder sister-in-law would leave with Fan Jiefang, but to her surprise, Fan Jiefang only had breakfast before driving off.

Xie Jinghong, however, stayed behind, saying it was beneficial for the kids to have companions at their maternal home and learn from Xiao Si and Xiaoqi, which was far more useful than staying at home.

As for whether Fan Jiefang had anyone to take care of him, well, wasn’t it that Xie Jinghong wanted her husband to learn a lesson?

Yan Jinsu was genuinely happy to see her elder sister-in-law stay, saying that she was finally able to free up her hands with her around.

She was planning to visit the town today to call on the Li Baojia family.

Zhou Xiuhua nodded understandingly, considering that Ni’s truly close relatives that she could visit were only Uncle Zhang and the Li Baojia family.

Yan Jinsu had given birth, and the child was already nearly half a year old; it had been a long time since she had returned, and by all rights, she should pay them a visit.

However, with the cold weather outside and her children still very young, and two of them at that, Yan Jinsu didn’t want to take them out to suffer and decided to leave them home. After preparing gifts, bidding farewell to her in-laws and others, she grabbed her stuff and left.

Yan Jinsu took the mountain path, firstly because she was in a hurry and the mountain path was the fastest. Secondly, taking the mountain path could yield some wild game for her.

Taking the main road would mean enduring the smell of vehicles, which was less preferable to her than the mountain path.

Oh my, the strength of her ’sturdy’ pace couldn’t be measured by an average person’s stride.
