Wang Jin comforted her. â Mom, if my sister-in-law had any intelligence, she wouldnât have made things difficult for you over this matter. You were indeed in the wrong back then, but you also had your considerations! â
âMoreover ⌠Youâre an elder. She and Fifth Brother have already known each other for more than half a year, but she hasnât said that she would come to see you. This doesnât make sense. Jinchuan and Xia City arenât separated by the Pacific Ocean. If she had the intention, she would have brought the child here long ago.â
Xie Zhongdi frowned, feeling that his wifeâs words were not pleasant to hear.
He glanced at Wang Jin and said to the old lady, ââMom, her words are not unreasonableâŚAfter all, youâre an elder, but I donât think No. 5âs wife didnât come on purpose. Recently, there have been a lot of things happening over there. She wanted to visit you and Dad, but she didnât have the time.â
Xie Fengmian nodded. â Thatâs right. Didnât you catch a fire before the New Year? â Fifth Aunt really doesnât have the time. Something has been going on at home, so how can she have the time? Fourth Aunt, you donât know much about Fifth Auntâs situation, so itâs better not to talk nonsense.â
Xie Fengmian wasnât particularly polite and spoke directly.
Wang Jin was a little embarrassed. She nodded.âYouâre right. I really donât know much about Fifth Sister-in-lawâs situation. I shouldnât have said that.â
She actually didnât have any bad intentions and didnât think too much about it. She just said it casually.
Wang Jinâs thoughts were quite similar to many peopleâs.
They all felt that marrying Xie Xize and marrying into the Xie family was something that countless women dreamed of.
It was not easy for Mo Yangyang to marry into the family.
Therefore, there shouldnât be any reluctance.
Besides, paying respects to her in-laws was something a daughter-in-law had to do. Mo Yangyangâs delay in coming was indeed a little lacking in etiquette.
The old lady paced back and forth in the living room.âAiya, I understand what youâre saying, but heâs just nervous about my heartâŚâ
She was so nervous that she didnât know how to say it.
In any case, he couldnât sit down. Once he sat down, he felt a little flustered. He walked back and forth, but he wasnât that nervous!
Old Master Xie looked at his bossâs restless expression and said,âAiya, sit down. If you walk like this for a few hours, youâll probably be exhausted by the time they come back.â
The old lady turned around and said to Xie Fengmian,âFengmianâŚâ Give your fifth uncle a call and ask him where they are now.â
Xie Fengmian shook his head with a smile. Youâre not like you anymore. Youâre the old madam of the Xie family. You canât be a coward!â
Grandmother Qi said anxiously, â Why do you care where they went? Just give them a call. I want to know if theyâve set off yet. They didnât even come back. In the end, something happened and they didnât come back. â
Xie Fengmian nodded. â Alright, alright. Iâll hit him. Iâll hit him, alright? â
He took out his phone and dialed Xie Xizeâs number.
âGrandma, I canât guarantee that my fifth uncle will answer. He never likes to answer my callsâŚâ
After a while, no one picked up.
Xie Fengmian looked at the old lady and spread out his hands, indicating that he could do nothing.
â Call another one, â the old lady said. â Maybe you didnât hear him at all. â
âAlright then.â
Xie Fengmian called a second one, and this time, it was finally connected.
