Chapter 299 I don’t want it

My aunt asked about Tang Chunlan at the end, and even suggested that she wanted to meet her.

"Seeing her is easy; just ask the person who arranged for you to come. I can't make that decision!"

Tang Qiyue did not lie about this.

Tang Xiuqin sighed: "I met her purely out of curiosity about her thought process, to find out if she's gone mad, that's why she ran away from her wedding and has men on her mind!"

Tang Qiyue: ...

"I know she lives very close to you, and I was worried you might have some reservations, so I asked for your opinion first!"

This respect may have surprised Tang Qiyue. She said, "I have no conflict with her. Her running away from the wedding benefited me and allowed me to escape from my family. I am already doing very well now!"

She never regarded Tang Chunlan as an enemy, and because of her romantic nature and naive personality, she couldn't bring herself to hate her.

Having witnessed a more cruel world, Tang Chunlan was at most a selfish person, but she was not a malicious one.

The problem is, she doesn't have the brains for it.

Tang Xiuqin nodded, confirming that Tang Qiyue wasn't lying.

When they parted, Tang Xiuqin gave Tang Qiyue a box, saying it contained a gift for her.

Tang Qiyue did not open it on the spot, but opened it after returning home.

Upon seeing the box full of jewelry, Tang Qiyue fell silent.

This was something she hadn't expected. Judging from Tang Xiuqin's attire, she didn't seem to be the type of person who liked or wore these things. Why would she think of giving her these things?

However, considering Tang Xiuqin's earning power, these jewels shouldn't be a heavy burden for her.

If it was given to her, it must have been inspected and was within the permitted range.

Tang Qiyue didn't like wearing these pieces of jewelry either, but unfortunately she didn't have a daughter and couldn't keep them for her. She thought she would give them to her daughters-in-law after her sons got married.

These are all exquisite pieces; no woman could possibly resist them.

When Zhan Zeye returned, he asked her about her meeting with Tang Xiuqin. Upon learning that she had been fed a lot of jewelry, Zhan Zeye was filled with emotion.

Fortunately, Tang Xiuyuan came over, and the topic was put aside.

"Sister, have you met Auntie's lovers?"

Even though Tang Xiuyuan is married, he is still so loud and boisterous. I don't know how he manages to calm down and do his research.

The key point is that he's also very gossipy.

Zheng Hongjuan, who was following behind Tang Xiuyuan, was a little out of breath, obviously having jogged to catch up.

Tang Qiyue ignored Tang Xiuyuan and invited Zheng Hongjuan to sit down and have some tea.

"Sis, why aren't you talking to me? Aren't you curious?"

Tang Xiuyuan moved closer to Tang Qiyue, just like a younger brother seeking his older sister's attention when he was young.

Tang Qiyue pushed his head aside: "Didn't you see that Hongjuan couldn't keep up with you? How old are you? How can you still be so reckless?"

Tang Xiuyuan rubbed his nose and glanced at Zheng Hongjuan somewhat embarrassedly. They had been married for several years, but their way of getting along was still so incompatible.

Zheng Hongjuan waved her hand: "I'm fine, I'm used to it!"

She genuinely didn't care. She was used to Tang Xiuyuan's carefree personality, and she wasn't the type to be petty. More importantly, she was used to the rough and tumble way of doing things in the military camp.

Tang Xiuyuan was relatively good; at least he could listen to what people were saying. If it were any other soldier, they probably wouldn't care at all and would even think she was being pretentious.

"Sister, tell me quickly, what's the deal with that little aunt?"

Zheng Hongjuan was also curious and didn't want to discuss Tang Xiuyuan's behavior at all, so she asked him directly. Tang Qiyue saw that the couple didn't take it seriously, so she didn't say anything more to avoid stirring up trouble between them.

Having shared what they knew, Tang Xiuyuan and Zheng Hongjuan, who were clearly there to watch the drama unfold, had their curiosity satisfied.

Zheng Hongjuan, in particular, looked on with envy.

"She truly is a heroine among women. She's so amazing. If it were me, I wouldn't be able to keep up at all!"

She was merely making a casual remark, but Tang Xiuyuan, standing nearby, curled his lip and said, "What? You want to find a few more lovers?"

Zheng Hongjuan chuckled: "I may not be able to, but our sister definitely can!"

She wasn't just flattering her; that's what she truly believed.

Tang Qiyue is stunningly beautiful, far more so than her aunt. In addition, she is exceptionally capable. Anyone who isn't a fool can see Tang Qiyue's remarkable qualities.

In recent years, although Tang Qiyue was ostensibly helping with farming at the Academy of Agricultural Sciences, those who knew her well noticed her unusual behavior.

Zheng Hongjuan wasn't stupid. With reminders from her sister and brother-in-law, she never dared to treat Tang Qiyue as an ordinary sister-in-law.

Tang Xiuyuan covered Zheng Hongjuan's mouth: "Don't you want a peaceful life anymore? Don't you know your brother-in-law is a jealous person?"

When Zhan Zeye was mentioned, Zheng Hongjuan stuck out her tongue.

She had actually forgotten about it.

Fortunately, it was just a joke, and Tang Qiyue wasn't worried about taking it seriously.

Tang Qiyue was too lazy to watch the young couple talking nonsense here, and reminded them that if they had time, they should go home and keep Tang's mother company, and not get in the way here.

Tang Xiuyuan waved his hand: "Don't mention it. Because of my aunt's appearance, my mother has been very irritable. I don't dare to go near her and make things difficult for her!"

When Tang Xiuyuan mentioned his mother, he had a lot of grievances to tell.

"What's wrong with our mother lately? She's been so irritable. Even Uncle Wang doesn't dare to raise his voice in front of her. And the little girl, who was so naughty, is so quiet now!"

Zheng Hongjuan, who was standing next to her, nodded in agreement.

"That's right, what happened to our mother?"

Although she was a nurse, she couldn't fully understand Tang's mother's situation, but Tang Qiyue did think of some possibilities.

Tang's mother is getting old, and even with her help to regulate her body, the natural aging process is inevitable, and fluctuations in hormone levels in the body bring about some side effects.

After explaining the menopausal situation to the two of them, I reminded them, "Don't take it lightly, and be more tolerant of them lately."

Women going through menopause already have difficulty controlling their emotions due to hormonal fluctuations. If we don't show them more care, wouldn't that just add fuel to the fire?

Tang Qiyue spoke seriously, and Zheng Hongjuan and Tang Xiuyuan dared not take it lightly.

"Then I'll keep myself busy at the research institute lately!"

Tang Xiuyuan's first thought wasn't to go back and be with his mother, but to hide away.

"Then I'll visit my sister more often; it's better not to go back and upset my mother-in-law!"

Zheng Hongjuan also chose to hide.

They truly are a married couple; family members don't enter the same door.

Tang Qiyue didn't force them to do things they didn't like, but reminded them to be mindful of their limits. If they really angered Tang's mother, they would probably be the ones who suffered.

"Speaking of which, it's all because Uncle Wang is useless. He doesn't know how to keep our mother in check. Over the years, he's spoiled her rotten. I wonder how our mother will manage without Uncle Wang!"

Instead of reflecting on his actions, Tang Xiuyuan dragged Uncle Wang down with him.
