Chapter 545: Chapter 541: Troublesome Matters When Returning to Hometown 76 [Mass Release 70]
------------
Yan Jinsu indeed returned to her room to take a bath straight away, dropping the Flame Stone into the cold water and soaking it for a few seconds until she felt the temperature was just right, then she took it out and put it back into the Space.
After soaking for twenty minutes, she finally felt warm all over.
Yet, during those twenty minutes, her heart was preoccupied with thoughts about her husband’s situation, unsure of what was happening there.
She had perceived something was amiss with Xie Jingchen, and it was certainly no trivial matter.
All he told her when she got back was that he was off to do a task and that he would return with a surprise for her...
At that time, all she wanted to do was sleep - who had the energy to chat with him...
Now that she thought about it, could the surprise be that he had dealt with the Wu Family?
Back then, the thing that infuriated her the most was the Wu Family!
Throughout the year, she had uncovered so many troubling matters, and the Wu Family was involved in more or less all of them!
Especially the matter of bribing the nurses, it was all done by the Wu Family members!
This was precisely the reason why Yan Jinsu loathed the Wu Family so much.
No, she couldn’t just sit idly in the countryside without inquiring; she would speak to her in-laws in a moment, she must go out tomorrow... How could she be at ease if she wasn’t certain of her husband’s safety?
As for the children... Yan Jinsu frowned, she needed to make proper arrangements.
With Yan Jinxian before and then those Bosses, Fourth, and Second, if she didn’t take any precautions, wouldn’t she be putting her family and children at risk from others’ threats?
No.
She couldn’t be rash.
Her husband needed her, but her children and family needed her too!
She had to find a way first, deal with that demoness Yan Jinxian, then she could live peacefully!
Yan Jinsu’s heart was in a turmoil, torn between her husband’s safety and the safety of her children. It was at this moment of dilemma that someone made the decision for her the next day.
Unable to decide on her own, Yan Jinsu could only carry her worries with her and first went to the front courtyard.
Upon getting closer, she saw her mother-in-law and father-in-law were actually sitting on the threshold in front of the stove picking vegetables!
"Grandpa, Mom, why don’t you sleep a bit longer? It’s not even dawn yet!"
Indeed, it wasn’t dawn yet; it was just past five o’clock, and with winter coming, dawn wouldn’t break until after half-past five usually.
A heavy downpour last night had caused the break of day to be even later.
"Little girl, why are you standing outside? Come on in, you know it’s not dawn yet and you’re still standing in the morning dew. Afraid you won’t get a headache in the future? Come, come. I just made some more Ginger Soup on an open flame. Drink a few bowls to avoid getting a chill from the rain!"
"Mom, I’m fine. I’ve always been in good health."
"Alright, alright, we know you’re strong enough to take down a bear, but you still have to listen to Mom. Winter is here, and you got caught in the cold rain all last night. Drinking some ginger juice can never be wrong; I’m still waiting for you to give San’er another set of dragon-phoenix twins!"
"Mom!" Yan Jinsu, teased by her mother-in-law, blushed, which was a rare sight!
She’s just stopped lactating and hasn’t even had her period yet. Where on earth is grandma’s mind wandering to?
But just thinking about how diligently her husband sowed seeds in the days before she was to return to her parents’ home, Yan Jinsu’s face turned red with embarrassment!
"Hey, you’ve already had two kids, still shy about what old mom says?" Zhou Xiuhua saw little Ni’s face turn red and laughed out loud, giving her thigh a pat and then cheekily added:
"Wow, back then you were like a Yang Family female general, ready to kill wolves and defend against enemies with a war stick. Now you blush from one word from old mom. This will really shock the village gentry!"
’Pfft’
Yan Jinsu watched her amused mother-in-law and felt like she was spewing a mouthful of black blood—
Her Xiaojiu and Xiao Shi were only half a year old! If she got pregnant so quickly, wouldn’t the villagers mock them for being ’too loving’!
Zhou Xiuhua handed the ginger soup to Yan Jinsu with a smile. Yan Jinsu had no choice but to brace herself and drank two more bowls under the beaming eyes of her in-laws!
She was really sweating from her forehead—how much ginger did her mother-in-law add to the pot? It was spicier than skyward-pointing chili peppers!
"Alright, go check on Xiaojiu and Xiao Shi. Second Sister Xie is there; they probably haven’t woken up yet. If they had, she would’ve called for someone by now."
Zhou Xiuhua took the bowl and instructed Yan Jinsu to rest a bit:
"If you are tired, take a nap on the bed outside. Dad and I will make breakfast. The wild wolf pack attacked just last night, and with daybreak, there might be a village meeting... go rest a while!"
"Then thank you, Dad and Mom." Yan Jinsu felt warm inside; her in-laws were incredibly kind old folks. Ever since she arrived in this era, they had been wholeheartedly accepting her.
She felt that marrying into the Xie Family was truly wonderful.
Yan Jinsu entered her in-laws’ room with a smile and saw the two children indeed fast asleep!
Xiaojiu and Xiao Shi were well-behaved kids. She thought they might not be used to returning to their homeland, but they adapted to life in the countryside even better than their mother.
Especially when they went with grandma and grandpa for the harvest, they were thrilled to see everyone in the fields playing with mud.
But the harvest lasted only three to five days. Before the kids understood why adults played with mud every day, autumn had already passed.
Xie Jinghong finally woke up as Yan Jinsu entered. She blankly rubbed her eyes and smiled upon seeing her youngest brother’s wife had returned. Just as she was about to say something, Yan Jinsu gestured for silence with a ’shush’.
Xie Jinghong looked down and realized she was sleeping among her three children and Xiaojiu and Xiao Shi!
On the other side, Xie Jinggang, noticing the wild wolves in the village, wanted to help, but was told by Xie Jingwei to stay home and take care of the women and children in the east wing.
Indeed, Xie Jingwei saw Second Sister-in-law and her children were visibly scared, and that’s why he stopped him.
The Xie Family, with him and the youngest brother’s wife joining in, was already enough manpower; there was no need to add more.
"Little girl, you must be tired. I’ll let you sleep. Stay with the kids, I’ll take Xiao Xian to pee. This little guy, if he doesn’t pee before dawn, once he wakes up naturally, he’ll surely wet the bed! Once that’s taken care of, I’ll take him back to sleep in my own room. You must be utterly exhausted!"
Indeed, she was weary. She struggled to cope with her children at home and as soon as the wild wolves were dealt with, she soundly fell asleep like a child.
Xie Jinghong felt a little embarrassed within and chastised herself before getting up with Xiao Xian in her arms.
"Okay, thank you, Second Sister." Yan Jinsu wasn’t shy to accept the offer and lay down where she used to sleep, protecting Xiao Shi in her arms.
Originally Xiao Shi kept some distance from Xie Jinghong, but as soon as Yan Jinsu lay down, the little girl nuzzled with her nose and naturally snuggled into her mother’s chest, falling back asleep.
Now, without the need for Xiaojiu’s finger, Xiao Shi nestled into Yan Jinsu’s embrace and snuggled trustingly, melting Yan Jinsu’s heart completely.
