Reborn in the Eighties as a Housewife with a Space

Chapter 651: Chapter 645: Homecoming

Back to Nangong Shulan and her daughter, Qin Jiale, they saw Qin Lei waiting for them as soon as they got off the train.

“Dad, we’re back.” Qin Jiale greeted her father as soon as she saw him.

“Did you have fun at your sister’s?” Qin Lei, seeing his daughter happier than before, asked with a smile.

“I did, my sister was really nice to me. She gave us a lot of stuff to bring back.” Qin Jiale explained, pointing towards the luggage behind her to her father.

“Why did you bring so much? Did you empty your sister’s house and brought it all here?” Qin Lei couldn’t help but be surprised at the mountain of luggage. It was just too much.

“Dad, my sister and her family moved to Imperial Capital and couldn’t take all their stuff, so Mum and I brought it back. If you don’t believe me, ask Mum if I’m lying. Also, I’m going to study at Imperial University, just like my sister.” Qin Jiale looked at her father somewhat aggrieved. Why was it that she was being accused of moving her sister’s entire house here?

“It’s true.” Nangong Shulan smiled at her husband’s reaction.

“They moved to Imperial Capital just like that?” Qin Lei questioned as he took the luggage from his wife’s hands.

“Molin was transferred to Imperial Capital so they all went together to look after Qin Xue and her children,” Nangong Shulan explained while carrying the rest of the luggage.

It took them two trips to move everything. Thinking back to the envious glances from people when they saw all the stuff they had, Qin Jiale felt quite proud. These were gifts from her sister. No one else had a better sister than her.

“Could Qin Xue take care of two children all by herself once they got there?” Qin Lei asked, feeling concerned.

“I have asked her the same question, but she said she can manage. There’s nothing I could do if she can’t. I’ve got my hands full here at home. If I went to help, could you handle everything by yourself? Lele still has to go to school.

But I’ve told them, if they really couldn’t manage, they should tell me and I can arrange to go there. We can’t just ignore them, right? But if that happens, things would be much tougher for you.” Nangong Shulan said gently, looking at her husband.

“We should, of course. How could I turn a blind eye to our children’s struggles?” Qin Lei sighed. Indeed, Qin Xue was his daughter, and no father would stand by as his daughter suffered.

“Well, we’ll worry about it later. Now let’s go home. We brought back so much stuff, many of them are for Mum and Dad. There are food and clothes and all sorts of things you can’t even imagine.” Nangong Shulan whispered to her husband.

“What sort of things? You make it sound so mysterious.” Qin Lei’s interest was piqued.

“We’ll talk about it at home.” Nangong Shulan had been cautious all the way, for fear of losing their wealth.

Everyone understands to keep their wealth hidden. Human nature can be complicated, and many people would risk all for the sake of money. So she had to be careful.

The family of three rode the ox cart borrowed by Qin Lei, loaded up with all their belongings, and arrived back to The Qins’ village. Seeing their cart full of things, the villagers couldn’t help but feel a twinge of jealousy. Even though they didn’t know what was in there, they figured it must be useful stuff, otherwise why would Nangong Shulan bother bringing it all the way back.

So along the way they’d hear a sour word or two, the family of three just didn’t mind

While Grandpa Qin and Mrs. Qin were sunbathing at home, the visitors arrived.

“Oh my, you two are still sunbathing here? Aren’t you aware? Your daughter-in-law brought back a lot of good stuff. Shouldn’t you go check what good things she’s brought back for you two?” Qin Dazui, Mrs. Li’s mother-in-law, was chattering a lot, leaving Grandpa Qin and Mrs. Qin feeling completely puzzled.
