Chapter 528: He Listens to His Wife

Big sister turned to wash the vegetables, and because the two were far apart, this time Jia Liang’s voice was heard clearly by them.

Jia Liang asked big sister to leave the vegetables, and he would wash them later, as the water was cold in winter and he didn’t want big sister to touch the cold water.

"Jia Liang told me that he indeed had feelings for big sister when she was getting a divorce, and he did feel that big sister was in a difficult position at that time. But his affection for big sister wasn’t a momentary impulse, nor was it sympathy or pity. Maybe his initial thoughts were simple, just wanting to give big sister a home, but later he only wanted to see big sister happy."

She glanced at Qin Yang briefly and continued, "You know big sister’s temperament. In the past, her marriage with Zhang Wenbin was family’s decision, and she has always been obedient and sensible since childhood, never going against the family’s decision. But after divorcing Zhang Wenbin, she wanted to live for herself once. Initially, she didn’t plan to be with Jia Liang, but Jia Liang’s sincerity moved her. Qin Yang, big sister is only 30 years old, she has the right to pursue her happiness and the right to be loved. Family companionship after all is not the same as companionship with a partner. I think we should respect her and bless her. Although Jia Liang has his flaws, he is someone worth relying on. I believe big sister’s judgement won’t be wrong this time."

She has known Jia Liang for a long time and already understands his character well.

At the same time, Lin Chuxia also knows that since Jia Liang became the manager of Qin’s Restaurant, there have been not a few young waitresses who have shown admiration for him.

Even back in An City, when Jia Liang’s job was stable, Aunt Jia tried to set him up with someone through a matchmaker.

But he refused all of them, and only when he met Qin Juan did he become deeply affectionate.

Even when rejected, he didn’t give up.

He doesn’t easily accept women’s advances, and doesn’t want to casually marry a woman, showing his responsibility towards emotions.

Such a person may not be easily enlightened, but once enlightened, he will be incredibly good to the one he loves.

Facts have proven she chose the right person, and Jia Liang’s dedication has also moved big sister.

Jia Liang is sincere and righteous, does things earnestly and responsibly, and is trustworthy.

Lin Chuxia sincerely hopes the two will come together.

Qin Yang also looked towards the two in the kitchen; he agreed with his wife’s words and also trusted his wife’s judgement, though thinking about big sister being targeted by another man made him feel a bit uneasy.

"Then I’ll talk to him later."

Lin Chuxia reached out and held his big hand, "Talk about what? Since big sister hasn’t talked to us yet, let’s not intervene first, or it will make big sister feel embarrassed. Let’s wait for them to break the window paper themselves. You’re just a young brother-in-law, don’t be too anxious."

Qin Yang pursed his mouth, showing obvious displeasure.

But he had to listen to his wife’s words!

The dinner was very sumptuous, with Jia Liang showing his skills to everyone, truly using all his abilities.

Braised carp, sweet and sour ribs, oil-braised prawns, braised pork...

Even the vegetables meant to neutralize the greasiness were cooked with flair.

Lin Chuxia had every reason to suspect that Jia Liang was indirectly showing goodwill to his future brother-in-law.

Having good culinary skills is indeed a bonus point when looking for a wife.

Old Sir He couldn’t stop smiling, looking at the table full of dishes, and Hou Xiaobao even bought two bottles of wine, pouring it out for everyone.

Qin Juan and Lin Chuxia didn’t drink, they drank beverages with Little Ningning instead.

Hou Xiaobao was the life of the dining table atmosphere, and after pouring the wine, he stood up to toast Old Sir He, "Welcome Master to Yan City, I toast to Master!"

Old Sir He couldn’t correct his title, and was too lazy to correct it.

Moreover, Old Sir He discovered that everyone in this room, except Qin Jianjun who was of a lower seniority and called him Grandpa He, all others followed the young apprentice and called him Master.

Having heard "Master" so many times, Old Sir He surprisingly felt a sense of having students everywhere.

In the past, he also thought of accepting a few more apprentices to pass on his skills.

But in the end...

Now these children in front of him have fulfilled his wish, even though these apprentices have nothing to do with Chinese medicine, yet their "Master" call gives him a deep sense of satisfaction.

It’s as if this old man, who everyone despised, was not living so badly.

That night Old Sir He drank quite a bit, and was somewhat intoxicated.

Hou Xiaobao, worried, wanted to stay and take care of Old Sir He, but was disliked by him instead.

In Old Sir He’s words, he found him too chatty, talking too much, disturbing his peace.

Old Sir He also knew the children were worried about him, pointed a finger, and kept Qin Jianjun back.

"This child’s temper suits me, this house’s arrangement suits me, an old man like me wouldn’t live in such a big courtyard, and your fourth aunt said you’re living with others in the employees’ dormitory?"

Qin Jianjun showed great respect to Old Sir He, nodded and replied, "Yes."

"Then do you mind me, you wouldn’t mind living with an old man, would you? If you don’t mind, you can move here and live with me as a companion."

Qin Jianjun instinctively looked at Lin Chuxia, and Lin Chuxia smiled, saying to him, "No need to look at me, consider your own wishes, living anywhere is fine. Even if you refuse Master, Master won’t be upset."

Old Sir He snorted, "I’m not that petty."

Qin Jianjun chuckled, "Then I’ll live with Grandpa He, it’s close to my school and my workplace."

Most importantly, he’s now living in a shared dormitory, with four people in a room.

Every night he wants to study a bit longer after school but it’s inconvenient, fearing disturbing others’ rest.

Living with Grandpa He here, he could have a room to himself.

"Then it’s decided. Tonight you stay with me here, move your stuff over tomorrow."

After saying this, Old Sir He waved to everyone, telling them to leave.

Having tossed around all day, he was sleepy.

With Qin Jianjun here, neither Lin Chuxia nor the others were worried, they all walked out together.

Headed to the car, Houzi called out to Lin Chuxia, "Mr. Lin, do you have time next month on the 6th?"

"What for?"

Lin Chuxia looked at him, seeing his embarrassed face, finding it quite fresh.

"Well... I’ve started dating Nana, met her parents a few days ago, they’re quite satisfied with me. We’re getting engaged on the 6th next month. You know I don’t have many relatives, so I want Brother Liang and Mr. Lin to be my witnesses then."

Lin Chuxia widened her eyes in disbelief, "You and Nana? When did this happen? You’ve been so quiet, really doing big things without a word?"

Hou Xiaobao chuckled, "I really have to thank Mr. Lin for transferring me here, that’s how I met Nana..."

Seeing him about to start a lengthy discussion about his love story, Qin Yang directly pulled Lin Chuxia into the car.

"It’s cold, get into the car quickly."

Lin Chuxia: ⌯ᐢᗜᐢ⌯

Hou Xiaobao just opened the conversation box: ⑉꒦ິ^꒦ິ⑉꧞

There are plenty of opportunities to learn about such things, but his wife’s health is important now, she can’t catch a cold.

Hou Xiaobao came by bike, Qin Juan and Jia Liang walked over.

After settling Lin Chuxia in the car, Qin Yang opened the back door, letting Qin Juan and Ningning get in, sending them home first.

Throughout the whole process, he didn’t even give Jia Liang a glance.
