Chapter 281: Chapter 281: Quarrel

Liu Qin’s words caught everyone’s attention, and they listened to her with indifferent expressions.

The cousin from the eldest uncle’s family bluntly said, “You’re pregnant, what can you do in Sea City? Just stay home and take good care of your pregnancy.

If you need money, let Jing Ze go out and work!”

The eldest aunt, hearing this, also chimed in, “That’s right, Qin Qin, you’re pregnant now, it’s better to stay at home than anything else.

After the New Year, let Jing Ze find a job. You don’t have mortgage or car loans; your in-laws cover your food and drinks, so just earn a bit and live well.

Prices in Sea City are so high, and the pressure is immense, don’t go there.”

Wang Jingze wore a cold face, looking like he didn’t want to engage with Liu Qin.

He smiled at Lin Xiaoyan, “Sis, don’t mind her, she’s just joking.”

Lin Xiaoyan tugged at the corners of her mouth and nodded with a smile before moving to chat with her grandmother.

“Sis, what job are you doing in Sea City?” Liu Qin persistently asked.

Fan Lanlan came out of the bathroom, having heard Liu Qin’s words inside, her face was cold, “What does it matter to you what job Yanyan is doing? You wouldn’t understand even if we told you.”

Liu Qin was displeased, “How do you know I wouldn’t understand if you haven’t said anything!

You just look down on us because our family is poor, we don’t measure up to you!”

“Liu Qin!”

Aunt Lin shouted loudly, her face looking extremely displeased.

At this time, Lin Fu and a few others who were smoking outside heard the noise and quickly came in.

“What’s going on?”

Liu Qin, having lost face in front of everyone, stood up with a cold face, looking at Aunt Lin, and said rudely, “If it weren’t for your son’s lack of ability, would I have to lower my face to ask someone to take us to Sea City?

Ultimately, it’s because your family has no money! No ability to earn big money!”

When Uncle heard this, his always prideful face turned instantly dark.

“Wang Jingze, take her away!

Arguing is one thing, but arguing during the New Year… if you two can make it, then do; if not, then forget it, I won’t care anymore, do whatever you want!”

With a dark face, Wang Jingze pulled Liu Qin and dragged her outside.

“Slow down, be careful…”

The grandmother beside Lin Xiaoyan watched his actions and hurriedly shouted with concern.

After the two left, the atmosphere was somewhat cold and quiet.

Aunt Lin sat on the sofa, sighing heavily, her chest tight with anger.

Seeing this, Lin Xiaoyan quickly went over to pat her back, “Aunt, are you feeling unwell?”

She had just “seen” Aunt faint from anger, and now seeing her pale face, she was very worried.

Aunt Lin took a breath and smiled stiffly, “It’s okay, just a little worked up.”

Lin Xiaoyan frowned slightly, “I’ll take you to the hospital for a check-up later, you don’t look well.”

Hearing this, Lin Mu looked at her sister, then at her daughter.

Lin Xiaoyan lightly nodded at her mother, and seeing this, Lin Mu’s face turned serious, “Go, after we eat, I’ll go with you to the hospital to have a look.”

Hearing this, Aunt Lin laughed, “I’m perfectly healthy, just got a bit angry earlier, and haven’t been resting well recently, so my head feels dizzy, but everything else is normal.”

“Auntie, I think it’s better to get checked out, didn’t you say a few days ago that your chest felt tight?”

“Yes, Auntie, it’s better to have a check-up, your face looks very pale now, you’re completely devoid of color.”

The cousins from the eldest uncle’s family, seeing Aunt Lin’s condition, were also a bit worried.

Others, looking on, also noticed that Aunt Lin didn’t seem to be in good shape.

Aunt Lin had no choice but to agree to go to the hospital for a check-up in the afternoon.

Before lunch, Lin Mu took the opportunity to pull her daughter aside. After ensuring no one else was around, she anxiously asked her, “Yanyan, your aunt, she…”

Lin Xiaoyan’s expression was heavy, “Yes, I just saw that after Aunt went home today, Liu Qin and her mother kept making a fuss…

In the end, Aunt fainted from anger.”

In fact, the reason Lin Xiaoyan chose to ignore Liu Qin earlier was because what she “saw” were scenes of Aunt fainting, and Liu Qin and her mother unexpectedly ignoring the fainted Aunt, letting her lie on the ground as they went straight into the room.

It wasn’t until Uncle returned home and found Aunt unconscious on the ground that he quickly called for a hospital, but it seemed like they delayed her condition, and Aunt ended up having a stroke, paralyzed in bed.

Unable to speak, unable to take care of herself…

Lin Mu trembled all over with anger after hearing her daughter’s words.

“That Liu Qin… that Liu Qin really is…”

Lin Mu was so mad she didn’t know what to say.

“Mom, don’t be angry, after we eat, let’s take Aunt to the hospital for a check-up, if there’s a problem, we should treat it promptly.”

Lin Mu agreed after hearing this, “I’ve been telling your aunt to go to the hospital, she’s too overweight, I feel her blood pressure must be high, and given her age, I’m afraid there’s a problem with her vessels too…”

Lin Mu said as she returned with her daughter.

Without Liu Qin and the cousin, everyone started chatting and laughing again, not mentioning those two anymore.

After eating, under Lin Mu’s firm attitude, Aunt Lin was taken to the hospital.

Upon examination, the doctor immediately asked Aunt Lin to undergo hospitalization procedures.

Hearing this, Aunt Lin panicked instantly, “Doctor, what’s wrong with me? What kind of illness do I have?”

…

Finally, Aunt Lin was kept in the hospital and couldn’t go home.

The cousin knew his mother was hospitalized from anger, he directly went home and argued with Liu Qin and her mother, threatening a direct divorce after the New Year.

He didn’t want the child!

As for Liu Qin and the cousin’s affairs, Lin Xiaoyan didn’t pay attention.

It’s fair to say both Liu Qin and the cousin were in the wrong, equal faults!

Aside from the second day, when Lin Xiaoyan accompanied them to visit her grandmother and uncle, she spent the rest of the time at home; with her brother around, she didn’t have to run around visiting relatives.

When she was a child, she dreaded visiting relatives, because she had to go to a completely unfamiliar relative’s home, where conversations wouldn’t flow, and she had to eat lunch there, ending up eating very little due to feeling constrained, wasting an entire day.

With all those uncles and aunts she barely saw throughout the year, it became an embarrassing attempt to forge relationships every New Year.

Day after day, time passed quickly.

Over in Sea City, Mr. He watched the lively scenes in other courtyards and felt very lonely.

Every night before sleeping, he’d ask He Qi’an if he had discussed it with Xiao Lin yet. When would their families sit down to meet? When would they get engaged? When would they get married? When…

He Qi’an, receiving messages from his grandfather every day, had grown immune, treating them as if they didn’t exist.

He didn’t dare rush; rushing would scare his fiancée away.

Rather than pushing him, they might as well encourage his parents to have a fourth child!

(Mr. He and Mrs. He: Unfilial child!!!)

On the night of the fifth, everyone was packing things up.

Because she had previously discussed He Qi’an’s family matters with her parents, Lin Xiaoyan made plans with her family to meet with his family.
