Since theyâre not going out shopping, Cheng Su lets Father Qi and the others settle their luggage first, all in the rented apartment.
"Your mother-in-law will take us there, you just take a rest first!" Father Qi sees the exhaustion on her face and urges her to go rest in the room.
Cheng Su thinks for a moment, itâs in the same building, just on the third floor, and she does feel tired, so she nods and goes to sleep in her room.
Anyway, pregnant women are a priority, she can act pampered for once.
Mother Qi takes the key to the rented apartment and leads everyone to the third floor, the apartment was already cleaned, and theyâve got new bedding, Qi Fengping has her own room, while Father Qi and his son share a bed.
After setting down the luggage, Mother Qi canât wait to ask her youngest son about the Cheng family matters, and whatâs this godparent relationship all about.
Qi Jianguo replies, "Itâs just something from the end of last month, at that time my older brother came to visit me!"
"This Cheng family, are they very impressive?" Mother Qi hesitates to ask.
Qi Jianguo says, "In Guangcheng, theyâre probably considered a prestigious family in the upper class? That Old Master Cheng was even an Old Red Army soldier, really impressive!"
After hearing this, Mother Qi feels uncomfortable, saying, "Families like that, can they even recognize your sister-in-law as godparents? Unless they value Taiguoâs military status!"
Admitting Cheng Suâs luck is something she feels uncomfortable with, sheâd rather believe itâs because of Qi Taiguo.
"Mom, they knew sister-in-law first, why would it be because of my older brother?" Qi Jianguo laughs, "From what Fourth Brother Cheng said, their Old Master highly values sister-in-law!" Mother Qi pouts.
Father Qi interjects, "Jianguo, because of this, you need to pay attention, stand tall, remember what your sister-in-law said earlier. Donât embarrass her."
"Dad, I know!"
Mother Qi isnât happy, she says, "Whatâs this supposed to mean, how did Jianguo embarrass her, heâs a proper university graduate, promising. Besides, heâs not asking for anything from them, they offered, why refuse?"
"If it wasnât for the sake of the daughter-in-law, would they even bother with you?" Father Qi snorts.
Mother Qi fumes, "According to you, without her, Jianguo wouldnât even be worth their attention?"
"Mom, thatâs not what I meant. Sister-in-law is just a middle person, only she knows the Cheng family, if she didnât know them, I wouldnât either, if theyâre not good to her, naturally they wouldnât be good to me. Even if they are good to her, thereâs no rule they have to be good to me, now the Cheng family watches over me everywhere, itâs because of her influence. I am indeed grateful to my sister-in-law." Qi Jianguo explains.
Seeing her husband and son both side with Cheng Su, Mother Qi looks to Qi Fengping, sheâs playing with her hair, after that incident, she has no complaints against Cheng Su as a sister-in-law, obviously, she stands with Father Qi and the others.
The whole family sides with her, anything she says gets rebutted, Mother Qi feels really bitter, saying, "All of you side with her. First, her birth family helps her, now thereâs some Cheng family, in the future wonât she flap her wings and fly all over, oppressing our family?"
"Calling you ignorant and you still donât believe, everyone hopes to know more influential people, and youâre afraid of being overshadowed by your wife, ridiculous!" Father Qi spits disdainfully and looks at Qi Jianguo, "Donât mind your mom, as long as you remember what your sister-in-law said, strive for success in the future."
Qi Jianguo nods, Mother Qi almost faints at the sight.
