Chapter 1176: Why Are You Getting Angry Now?

Mr. He furrowed his brows: "Watch your mouth, don’t offend people before asking for a favor."

Gao Yumei was a bit dismissive but didn’t dare to talk back to her father-in-law. She mumbled softly, "Why can’t I even talk now?"

The eldest, He Jiefang, glanced at He Jian Country: "Keep your wife in line. You know Third Brother’s temper. If something happens, don’t blame him for not giving you face as his Second Brother. This is Beijing, not Sanyuan."

He Jian Country gave Gao Yumei a hard glare: "Stop babbling about irrelevant things, you’re too idle."

Mr. He checked the time, it was getting late: "Alright, let’s get going."

The family set out in a grand procession.

Several neighbors came up to greet them: "Oh, where are you all headed?"

Mr. He replied with a hint of boasting, "It’s because Third Brother is getting married. He called home and insisted everyone must come."

"Oh, I see. That’s wonderful news, congratulations."

Along the way, people occasionally stopped them for a chat, wasting quite a bit of time. By the time they reached the bus stop, they almost missed the bus. Fortunately, the eldest son He Xudong, quick-witted, ran ahead to stop the bus, calling back to his family, "Hurry up."

At the train station, He Yuejin and his wife had been waiting with their daughter for half an hour.

Guo Yueyue looked toward the direction of the bus: "Yuejin, why aren’t they here yet?"

He Yuejin smoothed the hair on his daughter’s forehead: "They should be here soon."

Guo Yueyue turned her gaze back: "Yuejin, didn’t Second Brother say he wasn’t coming? Why did he change his mind?"

He Yuejin entertained the daughter in his arms: "After all, it’s a major life event for Third Brother. He probably wants to ease the tension a bit."

Guo Yueyue pursed her lips: "I’m not so sure."

He Yuejin turned to look at his wife: "Why?"

Guo Yueyue rolled her eyes at He Yuejin: "You know your Second Brother and Sister-in-law’s personalities better than anyone. Coming all the way out here, who knows what they’re up to?"

He Yuejin nudged his wife, who rolled her eyes, with his elbow: "What do you mean by my Second Brother and Sister-in-law?"

Guo Yueyue immediately laughed: "Alright, alright, my bad, okay? Our Second Brother and Sister-in-law."

Seeing that she admitted her mistake, He Yuejin frowned: "Did you find out something?"

Guo Yueyue adjusted her clothes: "I ran into Big Sister-in-law on the street the day before yesterday."

He Yuejin suddenly blurted out: "You were trying to test me earlier?"

Guo Yueyue lightly coughed: "You’re overthinking it."

He Yuejin asked, somewhat incredulously: "Really?"

Guo Yueyue glared: "Believe it or not."

Actually, she was trying to probe her husband to see what he knew about Second Brother and Sister-in-law’s intentions.

Seeing his wife getting upset, He Yuejin said: "Alright, I believe you. So, what did Big Sister-in-law say?"

Guo Yueyue decided to stop keeping him in suspense, mainly to remind her husband to be prepared: "Big Sister-in-law said Second Brother and Second Sister-in-law want to start a small business, and this trip to Beijing is to borrow money from Third Brother and his family."

Hearing this, He Yuejin’s face turned sour: "It must be Second Sister-in-law’s idea."

Guo Yueyue was displeased: "You’re always defending them, why assume it’s Second Sister-in-law’s idea? It could very well be Second Brother’s thinking."

He Yuejin shifted his daughter to another arm: "You know how my Second Sister-in-law is. She has always competed with her cousin. Now her cousin’s in-laws have opened a little workshop, which I heard is making good money, so she can’t sit still."

Guo Yueyue snatched their daughter from his arms: "I can’t believe you’re that kind of person, making conclusions without knowing the facts. Do you think your Second Brother doesn’t want to succeed, doesn’t have plans?"

Seeing his wife genuinely angry, He Yuejin said: "Hey, why are you getting upset?"

He was about to speak further when he saw Big Brother getting off the bus: "They’re here."

Noticing his wife didn’t want to talk to him, he quickly coaxed: "Alright, Yueyue, you’re right to criticize me. I was a bit prejudiced. I’ll be more careful from now on."

Guo Yueyue saw his good attitude: "Fine, as long as you’re aware. If it turns out to be true, don’t get involved."

He Yuejin nodded: "Don’t worry, I’ve taken note."
