How I Tamed My Wolfish Husband Back in 80s-Chapter 331 - 333: Cursing in secret_1

Not long after Qin Jin finished cooking, Old Mrs. Qin came back with Yu Cuiying.

Yu Cuiying’s face was lit up with happiness, "Working here is truly comfortable; I get ready-made meals almost every day." If it’s not noodles, it’s rice, plus the meat buns and soy milk with fried dough sticks bought in the morning.

How could her hometown offer such conditions?

Li Qiao reminded her, "When Maimiao and the others come back from the hometown, you’ll have to cook for yourselves, right?"

"Sure." Yu Cuiying was still elated, thinking cooking a meal was not difficult at all.

After dinner, as usual, Li Qiao went into the new house to take the dog for a walk, and this time Qin Jin followed.

The two walked toward the outskirts.

As Puppy frolicked, they sat down to enjoy the breeze.

Li Qiao, looking at the distant sunset, said, "The scenery here is so beautiful – the evening breeze, fertile fields, sunset... I wish time could stand still."

"I don’t want it to stand still," Qin Jin replied.

"You don’t understand romance," Li Qiao said.

Qin Jin retorted, "You’re the one who doesn’t understand. If the weather is nice, we can come here to see it every day. Why do we need to freeze the moment?"

Li Qiao was at a loss for words, realizing Qin Jin had a point.

When they returned the dog, Jin Daxue was there, and Li Qiao was somewhat surprised, "Daxue, you didn’t go back to your hometown with your partner? Where have you been just now? Why didn’t you come over for dinner?"

Jin Daxue replied, "I didn’t have much appetite today, and I didn’t want to go back to my hometown." She was afraid of getting beaten at home and also dreaded the older couple questioning her about having children. She added, "Earlier, Old Mrs. Qin mentioned your professor partner could treat illnesses; I was wondering if she could take a look at me."

Li Qiao said, "You’re in luck; she just got back today and might be at home right now." Nan Chuyi said she would stay at the school, but she surely wouldn’t be staying there tonight.

"Can you take me over now so she can have a look?" Jin Daxue asked.

After thinking for a moment, Li Qiao agreed, "Okay." She handed the leash to Qin Jin and led Jin Daxue to the Xue Family’s house.

Aside from Auntie Xue’s family and Xue Jingyi, the other members of the Xue Family were present.

It was like a family meeting was taking place. As Li Qiao reached the doorway, she overheard Madam Xue demanding that the two daughters-in-law take turns attending to the elders.

Mr. Xue’s wife’s brows were tightly furrowed.

Nan Chuyi, sitting with her legs crossed, was cracking sunflower seeds, appearing utterly indifferent to the discussion.

Li Qiao, not knowing whether to stay or go, was just about to speak.

Madam Xue, somewhat angry, said, "Chuyi, are you listening to me? You just keep eating and eating. Have you never had sunflower seeds before?"

"Of course, I have. There’s a whole hill of sunflowers opposite my house; my grandma would let me eat as much as I wanted during the harvest. I think your stinginess is just for show here. Of course, I’m not deaf; I heard you.

As far as I’m concerned, you don’t need anyone to take care of you. You’re perfectly capable of running about and even fighting with dad. You’re in better shape than any other old lady I’ve ever met.

As far as I’m concerned, you’re just being dramatic, wanting to torment the younger generation. My grandma was seriously ill, and she didn’t want to tell me. Why? Because she was worried that knowing about it would affect my work in treating patients. But you’re different. It seems like you’re afraid your descendants are too successful, pretending to be sick and causing such a fuss, making such a big scene, specifically asking for me and my sister-in-law to attend to you. My sister-in-law has a job; I don’t. If you want me to take care of you, just say it directly! Why beat around the bush and create this spectacle? But how exactly do you want me to attend to you? Carry your bedpan? As long as you dare to make a mess inside, I’ll dare to carry it. Or do you want me to hold you every day and call you ’baby, time for bed’?"

Old Mr. Xue couldn’t help but laugh out loud.

As Old Mr. Xue laughed,

everyone else also laughed.

Li Qiao barely held back her laughter as well.

Jiang Wanqiu, having been lambasted, turned pale with fury – an uncultured brat!

Xue Sufen was the first to notice Li Qiao, "Li Qiao, are you hiding at our doorstep to laugh at my granny’s joke?"

Li Qiao responded, "... I’m looking for Mrs. Xue."

Nan Chuyi stood up and gestured like the lady of the house, "Come in and sit."

Li Qiao stepped forward and whispered the reason for her visit.

"Let’s go to the room," Nan Chuyi suggested. It wasn’t convenient to consult with a patient in front of so many people.

Li Qiao: "Sure."

As they were going upstairs, Jin Daxue whispered, "Is this girl a doctor? She looks about your age. I really can’t believe it."

Li Qiao: "Are you going to see her or not?"

Jin Daxue fell silent.

Maimiao was staying in Xue Lingqing’s room. As she pushed the door open and entered, the room had a long bench, and she invited the two to sit wherever they liked.

Li Qiao: "I’m fine standing."

Jin Daxue plopped down on the bed, and Maimiao glanced at her before feeling her pulse.

"Doctor, how is my health? It’s been almost two years since I got married and still no children. The checks show nothing wrong, but I just can’t get pregnant. Could it be a problem with my partner?" Jin Daxue asked.

"I don’t know if your partner has any issues, but you indeed have a problem, though it’s not a big one," Maimiao sat down at the desk and wrote a prescription. She instructed, "You can get these herbs from any local pharmacy, a treatment course is seven days. Boil three bowls of water down to one and drink it once in the morning and once in the evening, and don’t skip a single time. Also, remember not to have sex with your husband for a month after drinking this medicine. If there’s an issue with the pregnancy or the child, don’t come looking for me." frёewebnoѵēl.com

"What if I’m still not pregnant after taking all this medicine?"

"Then your partner is the one with the issue—a grown man who can’t even have children; you’d better kick him to the curb," Maimiao replied.

Li Qiao pursed his lips and smiled.

Jin Daxue was overjoyed and quickly expressed her thanks.

Maimiao again said, "However, you should really change this bad habit of sitting on strangers’ beds. It’s not like there are no benches!"

Jin Daxue immediately stood up straight: "I’m sorry."

Maimiao stayed silent.

Li Qiao felt embarrassed. If he had known earlier, he would have asked Maimiao to make a house call for Jin Daxue instead of coming here to sit on Professor Xue’s bed. No wonder Feng Kui would take offense. If it were Qin Jin sitting on another woman’s bed, he would no longer want her.

Disgust!

The three of them went downstairs.

Mr. Xue and his wife had already left.

Old Mr. Xue was not in the living room either.

Xue Lingqing and the others were watching TV.

At that moment, Xue Sufen looked up: "What are you doing here so late at night?"

Li Qiao pointed to himself: "I brought a friend to see Mrs. Xue for a consultation."

"I was asking about that woman," Sufen said, pointing at Maimiao.

Xue Lingqing corrected her: "That’s your Mrs. Xue, show some manners."

Xue Sufen: "...."

Maimiao secretly delighted. She had thought that aside from the old man, no one in the family acknowledged her status. She waited until Li Qiao and Jin Daxue had left before saying, "Mom, I can’t help but say something. My sister-in-law is quite reasonable, and my brother is quite the gentleman, but how come Sufen didn’t inherit any of it? Could it be that she was switched at birth by the hospital? You should hurry and find the real one. Maybe she’s suffering right now."

Xue Sufen was so angry she stamped her foot: "I look exactly like grandma did when she was young! How could I have been switched?!"

Maimiao made an ’oh’ sound: "Exactly alike, huh."

Jiang Wanqiu realized she was being mocked and pointed at Maimiao: "You, you, you...."

Maimiao yawned: "So sleepy! I’ll just sleep here tonight, and we can stay at the school tomorrow." She said this to Xue Lingqing, and after that, she headed upstairs again.

Jiang Wanqiu stamped her foot: "Third brother, look at her smug face. I’m the mother-in-law. Aren’t you going to say something?"

Xue Lingqing replied, "You’re starting to pull rank without a leg to stand on. Who acts like that? Besides, it was you who eagerly arranged this marriage."

Jiang Wanqiu: "...." There’s no way to live like this!
