Chapter 710: Chapter 710: Our Home
“I’m sorry for putting you in such a difficult position, like a jam sandwich cookie.” Thinking of the redness in his eyes that evening, her smile froze on her face.
Being a jam sandwich cookie, it truly felt awful.
“It’s not your fault,” Tong Sanlang said nothing.
The incident was stirred up by his family, expecting Qiao Xiaomai to tolerate it?
Should he watch his mother bringing Qiao Zhaodi and Qiao Yindi to the public trial?
Qiao Xiaomai’s approach at the time was indeed rough, but he could not find a better solution.
If another method was adopted, his mother would definitely create a mess, dragging the issue into an unsolvable dilemma.
And then there’s Zhu Hongyun.
A sister-in-law, actually making such a move against Qiao Xiaomai.
His mother was Qiao Xiaomai’s mother-in-law, and it’s justified if she wanted something from Qiao Xiaomai. But for Zhu Hongyun, just a sister-in-law, to take advantage like this, it was going too far.
Qiao Xiaomai had given Zhu Hongyun chances. Previously, when Qiao Xiaomai cornered Zhu Hongyun in the kitchen of the Zuixian Building, Zhu Hongyun not only didn’t admit her fault but also accused Qiao Xiaomai of being heartless and ungrateful.
Qiao Xiaomai endured it.
Later, Zhu Hongyun took advantage of her pregnancy to sell braised pork and malt sugar in the village, Qiao Xiaomai couldn’t be bothered to deal with her, and endured it again.
Zhu Hongyun took these two instances of tolerance as encouragement, and that’s why she started scheming against Qiao Xiaomai when she returned.
Qiao Xiaomai had her reasons to be upset.
So, when she got angry, she hit back for all the times she had tolerated before.
Did Qiao Xiaomai hit too hard?
On the surface, it seemed pretty harsh, but can you blame Qiao Xiaomai?
Zhu Hongyun, who Qiao Xiaomai had already endured, jumped in front of Qiao Xiaomai again herself.
So, Qiao Xiaomai didn’t go too far.
It’s not her fault.
The real mistake lies with his family.
His family, like leeches, wanted to suck Qiao Xiaomai’s blood, seeking to gain without work and only thinking about demanding.
His family didn’t consider his feelings at all.
The reason he became a sandwich cookie, was because of his family.
Why should he expect Qiao Xiaomai to endure?
Her soul is from another world.
“My family… should be educated. They’re not conscious enough,” he said again.
“Then I’ll have a chance to talk to grandfather, let him reason it out thoroughly for them. Money and respect, you have to earn it yourself,” Qiao Xiaomai said, “As long as they change this mentality, our family can soon prosper.”
Our family.
Upon hearing these three words, Tong Sanlang smiled.
After they cleared up the misunderstanding, the atmosphere between them was far from awkward.
Qiao Xiaomai then brought out some food, and leaning on Tong Sanlang’s shoulder, they ate and whispered to each other.
They did not mention today’s incident, it’s over, it’s all over.
Members from the Tong Family probably won’t come to them again.
The members of the Zhu Family also won’t.
They could just skip this part and go on with their lives as they did in the evening.
“Let’s go straight back to the village, and early tomorrow, haul some stuff to the manor.”
“Okay,” replied Tong Sanlang.
When they returned to the village it was already late at night, they quickly freshened up and went straight to bed.
They didn’t do anything, just slept.
The sleeping position was side by side, holding each other.
While this position was not very comfortable, both of them wanted to be closer to each other, closer, even closer.
It was already bright after two hours of sleep. The two did not cook breakfast, they grabbed something to eat from the storage, and after eating, they loaded things onto the cattle cart and headed to the manor.
