Rebirth: General, Don't Mess Around!

After he left, she, who was still in junior high at that time, secretly opened the note out of curiosity. It said: [I’m sorry, wife. I have to go back to the military unit.] There were a few teardrops on the note. Those were… her cousin’s tears of self-blame.

There was no need to talk about other things. Anyway, from junior high to graduating from university, she was a witness to her cousins and sisters-in-law’s affairs. No one knew as much as her about her sisters-in-law’s sorrow. After all, she had studied in the capital city. She knew everything that happened at home. She accompanied her sisters-in-law when they gave birth to her young nephews.

Other people would kiss and hug their husbands after giving birth. What about her sisters-in-law?

They didn’t even get to see their husbands!

Seeing too much had traumatized her. She smiled and replied to her fourth sister-in-law, ”I don’t plan to find a boyfriend who might not be able to accompany me no matter what. I’m not as strong-willed as my sisters-in-law. I can’t accept it.”

The sisters-in-law were stunned.

Fourth Sister-in-law reacted and raised her hand to pat Zhou Yijin’s head. She smiled and said, ”That’s right. With your qualifications, you can find a boyfriend who can take good care of you. Don’t look for guys like your cousins. That’s my advice too.”

She had experienced everything—exhaustion, sorrows, bitterness… If she wasn’t strong, she might not be able to endure it.

Hence, Little Six was still the smartest one. It would be best if he could find a like-minded girlfriend so that they could understand and support each other.

The other sisters-in-law reacted and glanced at Ye Jian. The eldest sister-in-law even patted the back of Ye Jian’s hand and comforted her silently.

Besides not being able to accompany their wives often, the men of the Xia family were good in all other aspects.

Although they were responsible for everything in the family, they were still envied by their friends. There was no other reason apart from that their husbands allowed them to live worry-free lives. Although they couldn’t accompany them often, as long as they returned home, the wives didn’t even have to do housework. They could put down their status and didn’t have to do any laundry or cooking.

This was good.

How could a person have a perfect life? Nine times out of ten, life would be unsatisfactory, and their unsatisfactory aspects were nothing compared to many families.

Their husbands, in-laws, and basically the entire family would help out. It was satisfactory.

Ye Jian knew why her eldest sister-in-law patted her hand lightly. She tilted her head and pursed her lips into a gentle smile. There was an indescribable strength in her bright eyes, making the smile in her eldest sister-in-law’s eyes deepen.

Ye Jian was stronger than they thought.

Soon, the old madam gave the order. The juniors got up and left to chat at the side.

The old madam and old master invited the two elders of the Qin family to the living room to eat fruits and recall the past. They chatted happily without the need for the juniors to accompany them.

They threw away all the misunderstandings and prejudices from back then and recalled the past calmly now that they were old. When the past was brought up again, the two old madams couldn’t help but sigh over how young and immature they were. Those past conflicts had become knots in their hearts. Thinking about it now, they found it funny.

The elders didn’t care about the matters between the juniors anymore, and they didn’t require their children and grandchildren to accompany them anymore. Aunt Xia Sujun suggested a round of mahjong, and the aunts and wives agreed unanimously. Hence, Eldest Aunt, Second Aunt, Aunt, and Little Aunt gathered at the same table. After a while, the sound of mahjong could be heard.
