Reborn in the Eighties as a Housewife with a Space

Chapter 995: Chapter 989: Sharp Voice_1

Chu Molin watched his wife’s motherly expression and felt that such a daughter-in-law was indeed normal. At times, she appeared to be extremely isolated, like she was the only person left in this world, disconnected from her surroundings.

Fang Xiu stood there, watching them discuss those family matters, contemplating how wonderful it would be if someone could protect her like that. Unfortunately, she did not have that kind of luck, while upon hearing her sister’s words, Jiale felt warmth in her heart. She cherished such a sister.

“Aunt Dazui, you ought to know what kind of people we are. Do you dare speak what you’ve just said before the other villagers?” Qin Jiale knew that her mother had never confronted anyone in the village. She would rather suffer some losses than treat others badly. However, that’s not always possible.

Hence, now Qin Jiale had come to realize that the reasons why her sister had been spoken ill of in the past were due to their family being too kind-hearted. Therefore, she didn’t want to live like that anymore. She needed to stand up for herself.

“Well…” Dazui was genuinely unsure about how to answer Qin Jiale’s question. Because she knew that the Qins had always been kind-hearted, not intending to make troubles with others, so she realized her previous words were incorrect. Now, when Jiale asked her to say it in front of the villagers, she found herself unable to.

“Sis, let’s go home, I’m hungry,” Qin Jiale said to Qin Xue when Dazui remained silent.

“Alright, let’s go home. I’ll make you something tasty to satisfy your hunger.” Qin Xue didn’t want to stay any longer, either. Everyone here was against her. Despite the short time she had been there, she had been targeted several times. More time there would inevitably invite more comments. It wasn’t that she was afraid of people talking shit, she was just annoyed.

“Great, I want to eat shrimp pancakes. I’ll go pull some onions later, make it for me then.” Upon hearing about food, Chun Jiale stopped thinking too much. Although her initial plan didn’t work out, she had made it clear that her family was no longer easy to bully.

Qin Jiale figured there were two primary reasons her family had been like that before: One, her mother was a stranger in the area, with nobody to back her up;

The second was the personalities and upbringing of her parents that make them incapable of doing anything disgraceful. Even though their family was extremely poor in this region, things that were deeply ingrained couldn’t be easily forgotten.

Therefore, no matter how their family was faring, as long as it didn’t harm them, their parents never argued with anyone about anything. This time around, when she came back, she knew her mother had forcefully rebuked Qin Su’E and Mrs. Li.

This made Qin Jiale realize that her parents were not pushovers. They just didn’t engage with the people who badmouthed her sister without proof. But when they did find out what was going on, didn’t her mother disregard her poise?

As the youngest in the family, she needed to protect her sister. However, she was just an adolescent girl barely starting to understand the world. So, when Dazui mentioned her future marriage negotiations, she reacted somewhat vehemently. Now that she had calmed down, she didn’t feel her response was unwarranted. After all, she wasn’t any less for it, right? This is why they say haste is the devil; one should think through the consequences to avoid making mistakes.
