Transmigration: I Have Storage Space in the Apocalypse-Chapter 451 - 446 Xie Jinghong’s Troubles 01

——————

Xie Jingchen has completed most of his missions in the past few months, captured important materials from the Shantian Organization, and has even triumphed over all competitors in the national martial arts competition, becoming the undisputed number one across the military districts. One could say his present glory knew no bounds.

Similarly, his rank has been slightly promoted, and he has finally become a Rong Guard Captain.

Now, the Land Battle Group in the county town of X where he is stationed is under his command.

After becoming a Rong Guard Captain, Xie Jingchen had the authority to dispatch military vehicles. Moreover, having captured the championship, the military provided rewards.

Aside from his promotion, his military rank remained the same. Military ranks in the military are usually progressed based on service years and experience, while actual power in different military positions is determined by capability and background.

Unable to accompany his parents and children back to their hometown due to his duties, Xie Jingchen took advantage of his position and requested a military vehicle to personally send them to the train going home.

Then, he called his brother-in-law, Fan Jiefang, in advance and asked him to arrange a vehicle to pick them up from the train station.

Compared to the cold north winds of the county town X, upon returning to Y county town, it was just slightly chilly around twelve or thirteen degrees, with the air a bit more humid.

Considering the journey involved the elderly and children, after confirming the date his family would return home, Xie Jingchen sequentially phoned his eldest brother and youngest brother, asking them to tidy up the old house if they had the time, to at least give Mr. Xie and his wife a place to stay.

Other matters aside, serving one’s elderly parents is a duty that all children should fulfill.

Yan Jinsu was worried about the chaos on the train, so she carried Xiaojiu and Shiyi on her back, one after the other. With Xie Tiesheng, an old man leading a string of elderly women and children, they were quite eye-catching.

Fortunately, Xie Jingchen had already made arrangements on the train, and soon after, Zhou Zhenghui heard from Xie Jingzi’s mouth that the Xie Family were traveling that day and also had Wan Song send a message to the train station to "inquire" about the situation.

Thus, seeing that the Xie Family was accommodated in a high-class compartment, and that the attendants were attentively looking after them along the journey, anyone with ill intentions, seeing this, would retract their claws.

Yan Jinsu safely returned to Y county town’s train station with her family, and Fan Jiefang, who had been notified early, stood tiredly at the exit for nearly two and a half hours.

Nowadays, trains are really not on time. Being able to reach the station within three hours can be considered very good.

Seeing Fan Jiefang’s exhausted appearance, Yan Jinsu frowned slightly. Fortunately, her mother-in-law was so sleepy from the long train ride that she didn’t notice her son-in-law’s condition.

Xie Tiesheng noticed, but he was not Zhou Xiuhua; even if he saw something, he wouldn’t specifically remind his wife to take notice.

The family didn’t visit his second daughter’s home but had Fan Jiefang take them directly back to Qingfeng Village.

Yan Jinsu saw the anxious look on Fan Jiefang’s face and didn’t ask him to stay longer. Seeing him rushing off in such a hurry, she began to worry:

With her brother-in-law looking so anxious, could it be that something happened to her elder sister-in-law?

PS: Elder sister-in-law [Xie Jinghong, second-eldest], little aunt [Xie Jingzi, youngest].

Yan Jinsu watched her mother-in-law, tired, taking Xiao Si and Xiaoqi back to the inner room, knowing in her heart that something must have happened in her second sister’s family again.

Out of the corner of her eye, she saw Xie Tiesheng’s nostalgic expression when he saw his bamboo water pipe, and she was speechless.

But the fact that Dad didn’t react and didn’t startle Mom, that was the right way.

Fortunately, her two treasures were well-behaved. After moving them into Grandma’s room, seeing them sleeping sweetly alongside their Grandma, she then felt at ease to go clean her own room.

Yes, when Yan Jinsu asked her husband to call back home, she only requested Xie Jingchen to have her elder brother-in-law help clean their parents’ room.

As for their own room, she was planning to tackle it herself.

There were still ’valuable’ items in her room, how could she possibly let outsiders into her private sleeping quarters.

Anyway, when her obsession with cleanliness kicked in, she would rather work harder herself than bother others.

Especially her sister-in-law’s temperament, Yan Jinsu really disliked it.

There was no need to owe their couple a favor over trivial matters, making herself feel ill at ease!

Xie Jingchen was unable to take leave alongside his wife to return to his hometown because he had found important clues left to him by Elder Liu which weighed heavily on his responsible heart; how could he be at peace to accompany his wife and parents back home.

Fortunately, there was still some time before the New Year, so he was able to concentrate on military-related matters for the time being.

The moment Yan Jinsu got home and saw her second brother-in-law’s expression, she knew that his family’s situation must be far from peaceful.

But she could never have expected that barely an hour after Fan Jiefang left, Xie Jinghong arrived with his three children.

At that time, Yan Jinsu was cleaning her own room - since the elderlies were looking after the kids, she took advantage of the moment when no one was around and quickly dealt with the dust accumulated over half a year using the vacuum cleaner in just ten minutes.

Then she mopped the floor twice; with her strength, household chores were very simple.

Finally, she wiped down everything inside and outside her room with a wet cloth.

In less than an hour, she had cleaned the nearly fifty square meters inside and out thoroughly.

Now back at home, Yan Jinsu truly felt a great regret, as she was unable to convince Jiang Xiaoying to come back with her to take care of the kids, which was quite worrisome.

Indeed, someone else’s kids are not old either, and by leaving, they couldn’t even go back for the New Year - which mother would be willing to leave her own child?

Moreover, at the Xie family, Jiang Xiaoying was just too awkward. The Xie family did not say anything excessive to her, it was only Zhou Xiuhua, whenever Xie Jingyang came back, who gave off a little vibe of guarding against a thief.

With Aunt Zhou acting so obviously, how could Jiang Xiaoying possibly return with the Xie family to the hometown?

Even if the salary offered was high, Jiang Xiaoying couldn’t stand this wolf-guarding gaze.

Besides, Jiang Xiaoying was only a year older than Xie Jingyang, but it wasn’t so bad to the point that she had to throw herself at someone only to be ridiculed and complained about.

Jiang Xiaoying managed to stand strong and take good care of herself and her daughter for nearly four years, her nature was extremely strong-willed. She really didn’t want to be seen by Aunt Zhou this way, forcibly matching with Xie Jingyang to form an ill-fated relationship.

Even if Xie Jingyang was good, if his mother disapproved of her, only if Jiang Xiaoying was foolish would she still push forward.

So, Jiang Xiaoying directly refused Yan Jinsu’s generous offer, just saying she didn’t want to leave her familiar surroundings.

Right after she left, Xie Jingyang took the opportunity of the first weekend to ask Jiang Xiaoying out for a good talk, but what he got was Jiang Xiaoying’s cold face, clearly stating that she would not date him.

She even asked him not to damage her reputation!

Seeing Jiang Xiaoying’s cold face and cold words, Xie Jingyang felt the warmth in his heart extinguished by a bucket of cold water, dousing his wishful thinking.
