Chapter 194: Will Still Bake Eggs

She was really so heartless!

“Don’t mention her again!” Qin Boyu said coldly.

Qin Siyuan lowered his head and said nothing.

Since leaving the Qin family and coming to West City with Hu Xiujie a month ago, his temperament has changed a lot.

No one blindly indulged him anymore, and his classmates were not as accommodating as before.

He also discovered many things he hadn’t noticed before.

He was a very annoying kid, no one would really like him.

Except… Hu Xiujie.

His father didn’t like him much either. He wasn’t like Jiang Fuchao’s father. Jiang Fuchao’s father would buy him anything he wanted, and the two of them could talk about anything and be close to each other.

But his father had been very busy ever since he could remember. Although he would buy him many things, he rarely played with him. He wouldn’t let Qin Siyuan sit on his shoulders like Jiang Fuchao’s father, carrying him and hugging him.

His grandmother always said his father was very busy, busy giving him a better life, so he couldn’t disturb him too much. She also said that Hu Xiujie had already dragged his father down…

He had heard those words countless times. His father was indeed very busy, working from morning till night. Sometimes he wouldn’t even see him for a whole day. The only one who stayed home all day with him was Hu Xiujie. He believed his grandparents and thought Hu Xiujie was bad in every way. It was because of her that his father was so tired.

But Hu Xiujie was also very tired. She took care of him every day and had to do a lot of housework.

When he was at the Qin family, she didn’t have time to dress herself up at all.

Now, Qin Siyuan realized that his mother was actually very beautiful, and she wasn’t any worse than the aunts his grandparents praised.

It turned out that not all children had handkerchiefs and clothes made by their mothers, or had meals prepared and ready before dawn, or…

Counting down, Hu Xiujie had given him so much, she had given him everything she had.

He had taken it all for granted, yet he was still malicious towards her. She didn’t like him anymore, she liked other children.

Qin Siyuan thought, his eyes dimmed, looking at the scenery quickly receding behind him, he suddenly didn’t want to go back to the Qin family.

His grandparents didn’t want him anymore, his father would marry other aunts in the future, and he would ignore him as usual, as if it was better to be with Hu Xiujie.

No matter how busy she was, she would still have time to accompany him.

“Boyu, you’re back… ”

At the Qin family, Qin Boyu brought Qin Siyuan through the door, and a soft female voice rang out.

Liao Qing glanced at Qin Siyuan behind him, her smile faded slightly.

Walking into the Qin family’s living room, the Qin and Liao families were all sitting together, seemingly discussing something.

“Why did you bring Siyuan back?” Qin’s mother frowned slightly, walking over and whispering to Qin Boyu, “It’s already been decided that Hu Xiujie will take him away. You’re making me…”

She lowered her voice, but Qin Siyuan, who was close by, could still hear clearly. He looked at Qin’s mother’s unhappy face, clutching his hands, feeling helpless and sad.

Qin Boyu frowned, his gaze sweeping over the few pairs of eyes looking at him, he roughly guessed what was going on.

His already irritable mood became even more restless and impatient. He said in a deep voice, “Why can’t Siyuan come back? He’s my son! Everything I have will be his in the future, the Qin family is his, he can come back whenever he wants!”

The Liao family members changed their expressions when they heard his undisguised and meaningful words.

Qin’s mother didn’t expect him to say this so abruptly either. Facing the questioning gazes of the Liao family, she felt a little embarrassed, but still forced a smile.

“You child, what are you saying now? When you marry Xiaocheng, you…”

“When did I say I was going to marry her?” Qin Boyu said coldly. Hu Xiujie’s matter made him extremely irritable, and now facing this messy situation, he had no patience left. The politeness and courtesy he had maintained on his face before had vanished.

After all, the two families had been close friends for many years. Although Qin Boyu was impatient, he still gave them some face: “I’m divorced, Xiaocheng has such good conditions, don’t waste your time on me.”

Liao Qing’s smile faltered for a moment, but then she became calm and composed again, jokingly saying, “What are you talking about? It’s just the elders joking. We’ve said this for years, if I really married you, I would have dragged you to get a marriage certificate years ago! How could Siyuan be this big?”

Qin Boyu didn’t say anything, he turned around and picked up Qin Siyuan, who was timidly hiding behind him for the first time, and walked upstairs, his tone returning to its usual familiarity.

“Sorry, I was rude just now, you guys continue chatting, Siyuan didn’t sleep well on the way, I’ll take him to rest.”

Qin Siyuan stiffly put his arms around Qin Boyu’s neck, half-leaning on his shoulder, looking at the complex and ambiguous expressions of the people not far away, he slowly whispered, “Dad, I miss Mom…”

“She’ll be back soon.” Qin Boyu said firmly, and this time he didn’t avoid the others.

Qin’s mother’s face changed again and again. Ever since Qin Boyu brought Hu Xiujie back, their family had been in turmoil! The son she had raised for so many years had also gradually lost his heart to her because of Hu Xiujie, and he wouldn’t listen to her at all!

If he had married Liao Qing earlier, the two families would have been a strong alliance, and he wouldn’t have to work so hard! He didn’t feel sorry for his wife, but she, as his mother, felt sorry for him.

He married Hu Xiujie, a country woman who only knew how to wash clothes and cook, what could she help him with! She even gave birth to their Qin family’s eldest grandson, who was unhealthy. For so many years, they only had one son, and the one they finally conceived a few months ago wasn’t lucky enough to be kept.

She really couldn’t do anything for their Qin family! She was also embarrassing to take out!

…

Four days after Qin Siyuan returned to the Qin family with Qin Boyu, Hu Xiujie fell ill.

It was autumn, and the temperature difference between day and night was big, she caught a cold.

Hu Yao had been going to her place often these days, and she also called a doctor to give her an injection.

“Don’t let Heng Heng get so close to me, be careful of catching it.”

“It’s late, you go back, I’m fine.” Hu Xiujie’s face looked a little pale, but her eyes were filled with a smile. She gently pushed Hu Yao away.

Hu Yao sighed, checking her forehead temperature again, still worried.

“Sister Xiu, come home with me.”

Hu Xiujie chuckled, “I don’t have the strength to walk with you now. I’ll be fine after a nap. Yingwen lives just a few steps away, I’ll call her if anything.”

“Sister Yingwen has a fever too. I’ll ask Jiang Han to carry you later, otherwise I’ll stay here today.” Hu Yao was still worried.

” … Forget it.” Hu Xiujie heard her say to let Jiang Han carry her, and sighed. Jiang Han’s resentment towards her hadn’t subsided yet. Before, he was afraid she would take Hu Yao away, and now he’s afraid she will incite Hu Yao to divorce like her. He doesn’t give her a good face, let alone carry her…

“I’ll take care of Aunt Xiujie, I’ll sleep here today.”

Seeing them pushing back and forth, Jiang Xiaochao actively recommended himself, stating he could help with tea and water, and he could also roast eggs.
