Back to 1984: Let's Work Hard Together to Raise The Kids!-Chapter 274: He Xue’s Combat Prowess

Chen Xinyue let out a long sigh of relief, "As long as it doesn’t concern us, we can’t manage other things anyway."

He Xue nodded at her appreciatively, "That’s the right way to think about it. Let me tell you, even if you marry Jinlin in the future, you don’t have to worry. Jinlin doesn’t get along with his parents and has a cold relationship with his brother, and now he has such big issues with Guo Lingyue. After getting married, it’s unlikely he’ll bring you back to live there.

He has quite a few properties under his name, so you both can live wherever you like, as long as you’re happy. If Jinlin’s mom looks for you, you can go if you want, and if you don’t want to, let Jinlin handle it. It’s just like that."

Having observed the situation with a cold eye for years, she is well aware of the situation with the main family. If it weren’t for Xiao Jinlin truly being outstanding, she wouldn’t have been willing for Chen Xinyue to date him.

Chen Xinyue knew He Xue was genuinely fond of her and quickly thanked her.

Just then, a little dog ran over and circled around her.

Their topic immediately shifted to the dog.

About an hour later, Old Fang finally arrived at the alley courtyard with Lin Qin and the other two.

As soon as the three entered, they saw Xiao Jinlin, and their expressions were quite a sight.

Before Chen Wenjun could say anything, Xiao Sheng stepped forward first to greet them, "Welcome, welcome. I’m Jinlin’s uncle and also He Xue’s husband. You must be Xinyue’s elders!"

Upon hearing the name He Xue, Chen Wenjun discreetly glanced at Lin Qin.

Lin Qin was about to speak when she saw her daughter coming out from the small door with He Xue. The two of them happily rushed towards her.

Lin Qin had a lot to say but couldn’t find the words.

He Xue rushed to hug Lin Qin and immediately started to complain, "I’ve been in the capital for so long and only now found out you’ve been here more than once, yet you didn’t come see me. Is it because our feelings have faded since graduation, or do you have better friends around, Sister Qin, that you’ve forgotten about our comrades-in-arms?"

What a big hat to wear!

Lin Qin quickly surrendered, "Alright, alright... I just stepped in the door, and you’re already condemning me! What, are you afraid we’ll eat your precious nephew?" 𝒇𝓻𝓮𝓮𝙬𝙚𝒃𝒏𝓸𝙫𝒆𝙡.𝓬𝓸𝒎

Lin Qin was hinting at something.

He Xue immediately swore to the heavens, "I swear, I never meant that! I never get involved in young people’s affairs! Didn’t I agree with Xinyue earlier that if you came over, I must be notified at once? I’ve been thinking of you all this time, yet you’re not grateful!"

Lin Qin lost her temper and quickly began to humor her, apologizing constantly and explaining. After a while, their imposing demeanor faded.

Xiao Sheng and Xiao Jinlin subtly let out a sigh of relief and both gave thumbs up to He Xue.

He Xue didn’t even glance at them as she led the three to the house next door, "Let me explain to you first, this yard is divided into two houses, one belongs to Xinyue, and the other to our Jinlin. They work for the same company, so it’s convenient for them to go to and from work together. Although the two houses are next door, the yard gates are still a bit distant, and it’s inconvenient to walk that short distance to the car every day.

Moreover, a girl like Xinyue living alone, just cleaning is exhausting. On our side, we’ve arranged for help, a maid and a cook, and as the yard isn’t very big, the maid’s workload isn’t much, so it’s easy to have her handle the chores on Xinyue’s side too. Xinyue just needs to pay a little extra.

The maid is happy, it’s a win-win, and having someone help watch the house, people passing by during the day will hear the noise in the yard and know someone is there, so it won’t attract unwanted attention. There’s no downside.

Moreover, Xinyue closes the doors at night, which are secured from both sides, very safe.

Oh, and Jinlin even gave Xinyue a dog to help watch the house!"

The three of them looked at the extravagantly dressed little white dog and couldn’t help but wonder, can this dog really guard the house?

As they talked, He Xue led them into the guest rooms on the sides of the living room, "Ever since we found out you might be coming, Jinlin has had people meticulously tidy up these two rooms, replacing any unsuitable furniture and trying to make the rooms as cozy and comfortable as possible. If you find anything missing, just let us know."

Lin Qin’s mouth twitched fiercely, glancing at He Xue, feeling a bit speechless, "Anyone who didn’t know might think I was visiting your home as a guest!"

He Xue playfully glanced at her, "Soon we’ll be in-laws, why distinguish between us?"

Lin Yi got anxious, "Hold on, hold on, Xiaoxue! We haven’t agreed to this yet!"

Chen Wenjun nodded repeatedly.

He Xue chuckled, "Uncle, I understand, you’re reluctant to let Xinyue marry far away, afraid she’ll be too far and will suffer without someone to help. With me around, such a thing will never happen. Let me tell you honestly, during the Chinese New Year incident...

He Xue didn’t hold back at all and told them about how Guo Lingyue targeted Chen Xinyue, "I insisted on the other party coming to my house to apologize to Xinyue at the time. Jinlin even asked his brother to divorce publicly and get a new wife in front of his parents.

You see, Xinyue isn’t even married to him yet, and he’s already protecting her like this. How could he possibly let Xinyue suffer in the future?

Guo Lingyue was lucky, just happened to be found pregnant, and Jinlin’s brother sent substantial gifts to Xinyue, so Xinyue didn’t want to be calculative, and that’s how the matter was temporarily set aside.

However, this temporary is only for Jinlin. He still hasn’t forgiven his parents and brother and is competing with them. Otherwise, you’d see more than just us two today."

Lin Qin and the other two finally understood. They had thought Xiao Jinlin had deliberately planned it this way, but now it was clear they had misunderstood.

Lin Yi frowned with dissatisfaction, "With Jinlin’s family being so chaotic, how difficult it will be for Xinyue if she marries him!"

He Xue quickly shook her head, "How will it be difficult! Back then, it was the elder couple who left Jinlin with my parents-in-law. They were at fault in the first place. Besides, those two indeed favor their eldest son, Jinlin has indeed suffered grievances over the years. Whenever the elder couple tries to make trouble, he just needs to bring up old scores, and those two definitely become quiet.

Now Jinlin isn’t even living with them, only meeting them for a meal during the New Year because of the elders. They don’t even like to see each other apart from that, and every time they do, they end up arguing.

You think, with family matters like this and Jinlin taking the lead, could he make Xinyue be troubled by the in-laws?

And since that incident before the New Year, Jinlin’s brother and sister-in-law don’t even dare to contact them, afraid of causing issues and being disliked by the elders.

To be honest, in-laws, your Chen family has developed to the extent it’s no longer just a small family. In the future, you surely hope Xinyue can find someone from a family of equal standing to marry. In the worst-case scenario, they shouldn’t be a freeloader, right?

But families of equal standing surely have their own issues. If she marries our Jinlin, she wouldn’t have to deal with the in-laws, plus she has me, her little aunt, to support her, isn’t that better than others?"

"You’ve said both the good and bad parts..." Lin Yi muttered, his face still not looking good, but his attitude had softened considerably from before.

Lin Qin knew He Xue’s personality well; she’s someone whose word is solid. With her assurance, if Chen Xinyue really marries Xiao Jinlin, she will surely be well taken care of, at least concerning the in-laws, there’d be nothing to worry about.
