Chapter 285: Chapter 285 Xu Qinghu Visits

Night had descended, and Xu Qinghu called for a visit under the pretext of seeing Xu Nianhua and his siblings before their high school exams.

The door was opened by Ji Ying. As soon as Ji Ying saw Xu Qinghu, she didn’t even let her in; she blocked her at the door and promptly closed it: "What are you here for?"

Ji Ying’s tone was so distant it made strangers seem close in comparison.

"Sister-in-law."

As soon as Xu Qinghu began to speak, Ji Ying cut her off: "Don’t, I can’t be called your sister-in-law."

"Sister-in-law, what are you saying?" Xu Qinghu hated this internally, but still kept a smile on her face, saying, "I heard they have their exams tomorrow, so I specifically came to check on them, and I bought some nutritious malted milk."

While speaking, Xu Qinghu handed over the malted milk and fruit she had brought. These items had cost her quite a bit of her limited funds, especially since she had heard that Xu Qinghe had started a furniture factory at home that was quite profitable. Hence, Xu Qinghu thought, if her husband Fu Song could work at the factory, wouldn’t he make at least thirty a month?

With a job, Fu Song could surely return to his old self, and their life could be as it was before.

Thus, Xu Qinghu had really invested in this visit, making a special trip before the exams.

"No need." Ji Ying’s response was cold. She didn’t let Xu Qinghu in and didn’t even look at the gifts she brought. Xu Qinghu had never bought anything for the children growing up, and now, Ji Ying certainly wasn’t going to start accepting them. She said, "They need to rest early for their exam tomorrow."

As Ji Ying moved to close the door and go inside, Xu Qinghu raised her voice, shouting, "Nian’an, Nianhua, your aunt is here to see you!"

Xu Qinghu’s voice grew even louder.

Ji Ying was so anxious she wished she could cover Xu Qinghu’s mouth, furiously saying, "Xu Qinghu, you know they need to rest early for their exam tomorrow. Are you trying to ruin their sleep tonight?"

Ji Ying pushed Xu Qinghu back outside.

Hearing the commotion, Xu Qinghe reassured, "Nian’an, Nianhua, rest well, don’t mind it."

After his words, Xu Qinghe strode out. He grabbed Xu Qinghu and pulled her outside, only to burst out angrily once they were far enough away, "Xu Qinghu, if you were truly their aunt, you wouldn’t have come to disturb them today."

"Brother, what are you saying? I specifically came to see them." Xu Qinghu’s hand hurt from being dragged, she said, "I kindly bought gifts to see you all, and sister-in-law rudely sends me away. Brother, you’re dragging me away, I’m truly aggrieved."

With a pout, Xu Qinghu adopted a look of grievance, saying, "Brother, I came bearing gifts, out of concern for them."

"Humph."

Xu Qinghe coldly snorted, his voice harsh as he interrogated, "Are you truly concerned about them?"

"Of course I am," Xu Qinghu said, without a trace of guilt, adding, "Look, I brought so many gifts."

She held up the gifts in her hand, thinking, how could she not be sincere after bringing so many?

"We appreciate your gifts, you can go back now," Xu Qinghe said, dismissing her forthrightly. It was already eight o’clock, and Nianhua and Nian’an needed to rest early.

"Don’t go."

Xu Qinghu, not willing to leave without achieving her goal, clutched at Xu Qinghe’s hand and said, "Brother, you have to help me."

"I’ve said before, I don’t have a sister like you."

Xu Qinghe shook off her hand without a hint of softness. Back when Xu Qinghu was determined to push Nianhua into the fire pit, she never once considered that he had only one daughter.
