Chapter 344: Chapter 344: Something Doesn’t Feel Quite Right "Big sister, have some water."

Lin Chuxia’s words interrupted Qin Juan’s thoughts, and as she lifted her head, she also forced down the bitterness in her heart.

"Don’t be busy, let’s sit down and chat."

Lin Chuxia washed an apple, first gave a handful of candy to Ningning, and then peeled the apple for her.

Ningning was still so timid, sitting quietly on the sofa with big eyes taking in the surroundings. Finally, she whispered to Qin Juan, "Mom, little uncle’s house is really nice."

Lin Chuxia liked children, especially those who were pretty and well-behaved human cubs. How could there be any reason not to like them?

"Ningning, do you want to stay at your little aunt’s house for a few days? I’ll take you to go boating in the park."

Ningning also liked her beautiful little aunt, who always smiled and spoke softly to her. Aside from mom, auntie and grandma were the kindest to her, with little aunt being the most gentle.

She looked at her mother expectantly, but Qin Juan laughed and said, "Look at her, she really wants to stay. But she can’t. I’ve arranged for her to enroll in elementary school, she’s going to register at the school tomorrow. The school has already started for a while, she’ll fall behind if it’s any later."

Ningning was a bit older than Zhuangzhuang.

Although Lin Chuxia found it strange that Ningning hadn’t started school in September, it was the family’s private business, and she wasn’t the type to pry into everything.

The two then chatted about domestic life for a while, especially about Lin Chuxia opening her bun shop, Qin Juan was genuinely happy for them.

"Our Qin’s Buns Shop on Construction Road in the city is also our family’s, big sister can come and try it out some time, just mention my name."

Qin Juan already knew about the bun shop and responded with a smile, "Alright, I’ll make sure to try it when I have time."

As they talked, it was almost noon. Lin Chuxia asked Qin Juan to wait for Qin Yang to come back as she was going to buy some groceries to entertain the guest.

But Qin Juan stood up, insisting on leaving.

"Big sister, you haven’t seen Qin Yang yet."

Of course, Lin Chuxia wanted to invite her to stay for a meal, it was the most basic hospitality.

However, Qin Juan refused to stay, "We’ll meet some other time, now that you’re in the city, we’re not going to lose touch, are we?"

She insisted so firmly that Lin Chuxia couldn’t keep her any longer and could only say, "Then, I’ll visit big sister’s house with Qin Yang over the weekend."

This visit wasn’t just to see the big sister; it was mainly to let the big sister’s in-laws know that they had come to the city.

They were Qin Juan’s maternal family, and as juniors, it was only proper to pay a visit to big sister’s in-laws.

Qin Juan was still warm and gentle, "No need, actually I didn’t mention it before, Ningning’s grandfather is sick, he’s been recuperating at home lately, and we don’t want any disturbances. When things settle down at home, I’ll invite you and Yangyang over."

"Since he is sick, we should come and visit, after all, we are relatives," Lin Chuxia said politely.

"No really, there’s no need," Qin Juan quickly waved her hand, then feeling her reaction might have been a bit strong, she laughed and said, "It’s not a serious illness, he’ll get better with some rest. After all, you have things to take care of here, it’s not too late to talk about it once everything is settled."

"Alright then, I’ll go with what big sister says."

Lin Chuxia personally escorted Qin Juan and her daughter to the entrance of the residential complex and watched them walk away. As she turned around, she saw Qin Yang return.

"It’s really not fortunate timing for your return; big sister just left."

"Big sister was here?"

Qin Yang followed the direction she had just looked towards, but there was no sign of anyone in the distance.

"Big sister and Ningning came over. I asked them to stay for dinner, but big sister wouldn’t agree to it no matter what."

The two of them chatted as they walked back. ƒгeewebnovёl.com Qin Yang nodded, "She probably has other things to take care of at home, and her husband’s family probably can’t do without her."

Although he was always away for school and work and did not usually involve himself in family matters, he could still sense that big sister played an important role in that family, and usually, her husband did not like her to stay at her maternal home for long.

It seemed he was very attached to big sister.

Yet, if you were to say that big sister and her husband were very affectionate, Qin Yang always felt that something wasn’t quite right.

Perhaps big sister and her husband were both the introverted type.

Lin Chuxia glanced at him, then silently looked away and quietly said, "Maybe you’re right. Big sister mentioned that Ningning’s grandfather is sick, and they might need to take care of him."

That explained it, and Qin Yang nodded in understanding.

The two quickly returned home.

There were two loofahs brought from the old home, and Lin Chuxia was preparing to make dumplings with a loofah stuffing.

Qin Yang helped her with the dough, and while Lin Chuxia was peeling the loofah, she suddenly said, "Do you understand what kind of person big sister’s husband is? I heard from mom that when their family went through some troubles before, no one wanted to marry into such a family. It was because big sister’s husband’s grandmother had a good relationship with our grandmother that they married big sister to him. From this point, big sister should be living well in her husband’s family, shouldn’t she?"

After all, they had requested for her hand in marriage.

Qin Yang paused, as if this question was a bit beyond him, but he still tried his best to share what he knew with his wife.

"Back then, I was still in high school, and the situation was probably just as mom told you. After big sister got married to her husband, he treated her very well. Big sister is also capable. Although her husband’s family situation wasn’t great, our family helped out a little, and they managed to get by.

Also, less than half a year after big sister married over, the policy changed, and big sister’s husband’s family had their situation settled by the policy, jobs were reassigned, and their life improved. Later on, her husband got transferred to the city for work, and the whole family followed."

Qin Yang glanced at Lin Chuxia, then continued, "Everyone says big sister has good fortune. Those aunties who thought that marrying big sister into that family was like pushing her into a firepit, now think she married into a good family. It’s hard for us country folks to marry into a city family, just the household registration is a big obstacle. But then the policies loosened, even if rural people don’t have food vouchers in the city, they could still buy Switched Marriage The Coddled Little Wife Chapter 343: Unappreciative Ms. Bigshot Is Pampered by All Chapter 550 - 549: Do you think I’m joking with you?

Lin Chuxia nodded; she had often heard these kinds of discussions when Qin Lihua got married.

"Does big sister’s husband’s family only have one son?"

Qin Yang nodded, "Just him, but he does have three older sisters, all married off early. When the Zhang Family ran into trouble, the three daughters, afraid of being implicated, all kept their distance. I’m not quite clear on what their relationship with the Zhang Family is like now."

After talking so much, Qin Yang finally noticed something was amiss, "What’s the matter? Did big sister say something to you?"

"Big sister didn’t say anything; she’s always happy that our life is getting better and better. But somehow, I feel like she isn’t living as well as we imagine."

Qin Yang immediately looked at her, "What do you mean?"

Lin Chuxia shook her head, "I don’t know, it’s just intuition. Big sister is too gentle; I always feel that with her personality, if she’s in a troublesome mother-in-law’s house, she would be the one being bullied."

Qin Yang chuckled upon hearing this, "I thought it was something serious. Big sister has always been this way, the kindest and most understanding.

With her temperament, it’s impossible for her not to get along with her in-laws. Moreover, initially, the Zhang Family asked for her hand in marriage;

there is no way they would treat big sister badly."
