Transmigration: I Have Storage Space in the Apocalypse novel Chapter 340

Chapter 340: Chapter 336: Hiding Second Aunt Away

——————

"Who is as miserable as I am? My husband is never at home, and even when he’s home, he doesn’t pay attention to me. What kind of Rong Wei are you? You’re just like a work machine, completely disregarding my feelings and needs. I’m practically becoming a living widow!

Over the years, I haven’t had work, I haven’t had a career, and if I didn’t have Shishi, how would I go on living?

Without Zhang Shanni, I don’t feel the pain, but without Shishi? That would be the end of me! He’s my pride~~"

Qi Chunlan screamed at the top of her lungs toward the doorway:

"Yan Dongsheng, you’re heartless! For the sake of that daughter, you’ve completely disregarded whether I live or die, still wanting to confine me. Have you thought about the consequences for Shishi? The doctor said we can’t delay any longer... otherwise, he would only have one month to live!"

Standing at the door, Yan Dongsheng’s heart clenched upon hearing this—so, this was why his wife was acting insane...

At this moment, he was at a loss of what to do.

His daughter had just escaped danger, and now it was his younger son’s turn. His heart was in pain just the same!

They were all his flesh and blood; he was unwilling to hurt anybody.

Besides, just by looking at his daughter’s belly, he couldn’t be as heartless and decisive as his wife.

When Yan Jinhao brought the still relatively healthy Yan Jinsi home, he happened to see his father, who had not slept all night, standing alone outside the master bedroom door, his face filled with sorrow and defeat.

"Dad?" Yan Jinsi looked at his father, puzzled. Seeing the sadness on his father’s face, he immediately called out nervously again, "Dad...?"

Yan Dongsheng, seeing that his younger son could still walk on his own, was somewhat relieved, but a flicker of doubt crossed his mind, although he did not show it.

Yan Jinhao was more direct, opening the bedroom door, stepping inside, and then seeing his mother, Qi Chunlan, lying on the bed in a very uncomfortable and indecent sleeping position.

Upon closer inspection, he found that she had fallen asleep crying.

Qi Chunlan had cursed for almost an hour, and under the lingering effects of the medication, finally fell back into a deep sleep.

Yan Jinsi saw his father’s discomposure, and worried, he too entered the bedroom, just in time to see his elder brother lifting their mother to adjust her sleeping position.

At this point, even the naive Yan Jinsi realized that his parents, who had always been harmonious, had actually had a rare argument.

It was good in a way; he felt that there was more vitality between his parents.

However, seeing his father’s defeated demeanor, Yan Jinsi didn’t dare to show the slight joy in his heart. freewebnoveℓ.com

Yan Jinhao, seeing that their mother was not in serious trouble, said to his father, "Dad, you’ve been acquiescing to Mom for over twenty years. Isn’t it too late to start correcting her behavior now? Forget it, it’s between you two spouses. You deal with it. I’ll take my little brother to rest first."

Yan Jinsi, seeing his elder brother looking upset, was even more reluctant to reveal his small sentiments and quietly followed his elder brother out of their parents’ bedroom.

Yan Dongsheng, upon his eldest son’s words, then slowly stepped into the room.

Seeing Qi Chunlan lying on the bed, her face pale, he kept replaying his wife’s shouting in the room in his mind.

About the matter of his daughter, Yan Dongsheng firmly believed that his wife had done wrong.

But over the years, hadn’t he made mistakes, too?

Just as his wife said, he had devoted most of his energy to work, wasn’t it because he was greatly avoiding these kinds of family trivialities in his heart?

This was entirely a display of his immaturity. When he noticed that something was off with his wife, had he ever kindly corrected his wife’s thoughts? Had he comforted his unsettled wife?

In his work, he had helped many subordinates sort out their family issues, so why had he been so indifferent when it came to himself?

"Xiao Si, what’s this? It’s just been a few days since I last saw you, what happened to your back?"

Xiaoqi was still fine, perfectly normal, just a bit whiny upon seeing her.

But Xiao Si’s back, from just a week without seeing him, seemed a little hunched?

"Second... Second Aunt... I" Xiao Si really hadn’t noticed anything wrong with his posture. If it wasn’t for Second Aunt placing her small hand on his neck, he might not have noticed that he had recently picked up this bad habit.

"Xiao Si, you’re now at the peak of your growth spurt, and your height may shoot up quite a bit. So, when you’re walking or sitting, you must maintain good habits, stay upright, chest out, you can’t relax and slouch. This bad habit isn’t good, not beneficial for normal development, understand?"

Xiao Si nodded with a blushing face. Recently, with Second Aunt not around and Brother Xiao Lei also being preoccupied with who knows what, having not been around for days, and having no friends during the holidays, he only huddled in bed with Xiaoqi, reading comic books...

However, it only took a week for this bad habit to form.

"What about Xiaoqi, any bad habits?" Xiaoqi saw Second Aunt paying attention to Brother Xiao Si, pouted her mouth, feeling a bit jealous and stood in front of Zhang Shanni waving her little hand and asking.

Xie Jingzi, watching the kids interact from the side, felt a twinge of guilt. She hadn’t noticed the change in Xiao Si’s posture, yet as soon as Third Sister-in-law returned, she spotted it.

It’s probably because these past days, her mind wasn’t focused on the children, leading to this oversight.

Seeing little aunt biting her lip, looking like she was about to cry, Xiao Si immediately grabbed little aunt’s hand and explained softly: "Little aunt, don’t blame yourself, I’ve been lazy and staying in bed these past few days, it’s normal you didn’t notice!"

Xiao Si and Xiaoqi, without their mother, placed much importance on the only three women in the house and, seeing the aunt who took care of them with reddened eyes, immediately comforted her quietly.

Little aunt had been burdened with her studies lately, and he had been feeling a bit lazy due to lack of playmates - it wasn’t anyone’s fault.

"Alright, it’s not such a big deal. You’re the elder, you can’t be crying. I noticed right after coming back, but you haven’t noticed because you’re with Xiao Si every day — there’s an old saying, it’s darkest under the lighthouse, which refers to this kind of situation."

"Mm, we understand!"

Xiao Si and Xiaoqi replied in unison, causing Xie Jingzi to feel too embarrassed to continue her act.
