Chapter 536

“Are you guys planning to go out?” Qin Chaoyang thought that this was the only possibility.

“We need to make a long trip. You see, Qin Xue just gave birth, and there’s no one to take care of her during her confinement period. Shulan will go take care of her, but I’m not at ease with Shulan going alone, so I’ll send Shulan to Qin Xue’s place and check on the kids along the way.

As you know, there are things like chickens and ducks at home, so we can’t have no one look after the house. That’s why I came over to ask if Mom and Dad could stay at our place for a few days. What do you think?” Qin Lei’s relationship with his elder brother had always been decent.

Since they were the only siblings in the family, their relationship was quite good; at least there were no quarrels or fights like in other families, and they lived in peace.

“Ah, I thought it was something serious. There’s no reason not to. Wait a moment, I’ll call Mom and Dad out.” Qin Chaoyang originally thought something bad had happened, but it turned out to be good news.

“Thank you, big brother.” Qin Lei thanked his brother. Although their parents were also his, their parents lived with his elder brother, so he had to ask for his elder brother’s approval to ask their parents for help to look after the house.

Otherwise, a good thing might turn into a bad one, and that wouldn’t be good.

“What’s there to thank? We brothers don’t need to be so polite.” Qin Chaoyang looked at his polite brother and didn’t understand why they, who once had such a good relationship, now felt somewhat distant from each other.

“Alright, I won’t mention it.” Qin Lei nodded.

“Wait here, I’ll go call Mom and Dad out.” Qin Chaoyang went into the house, and it wasn’t long before he came back out with his parents following behind.

“Mom, Dad.” Seeing his parents come out, Qin Lei stood up and greeted them.

“Your big brother told me about it; it’s a happy event. Don’t worry, we can take care of the house for you.” Mrs. Qin kindly looked at her younger son.

“Thank you, Mom and Dad. I appreciate your help.” Qin Lei looked at his mother, who had agreed to help without him even asking, her hair already turning gray.

“Why are you still being polite with your mother? When are you leaving?” Mrs. Qin asked so she could arrange for her and her husband to go there.

“We have to leave early tomorrow morning.” Qin Lei needed to catch a train.

“Alright, your father and I will come over early tomorrow morning.” Mrs. Qin thought for a moment and said.

“It’s fine if it’s a little later. We can take the keys when we leave.” Qin Lei’s house was on the way when they left, so it wouldn’t take up much time.

“That works too.” Mrs. Qin thought that was fine, as she and her husband could just go over and feed the chickens and ducks after breakfast.

“Okay, I’ll go back now and see if there’s anything I need to bring for Qin Xue.” Qin Lei bade farewell to his parents and elder brother before heading home.

“Husband, you’re back.” Nangong Shulan heard the noise and came out to check.

“I’m back. Is there anything valuable or blood-nourishing at home that we can bring for Qin Xue?” Qin Lei wondered if they had anything valuable at home, or anything that could nourish blood?

“No.” Nangong Shulan thought of what she could bring to her daughter, but they had already taken everything that could be brought during the previous two trips.

“That’s fine. The journey is long and it’s not convenient to bring too many things. We can buy anything she needs when we get there.” Qin Lei thought it was fine not to bring anything, since traveling by train was really inconvenient.

It wasn’t that Qin Lei had traveled many times and taken the train a lot, but rather that he had heard others talking about it, so he took it to heart after listening.
