Transmigration: I Have Storage Space in the Apocalypse-Chapter 468 - 463 Xie Jinghong’s Troubles 18

——————

"Alright, you watch the kids while I go take a shower, and I’ll come back to sleep with you later," Zhou Xiuhua said, knowing full well from little Ni’s demeanor that she wouldn’t say anything else.

But at this point, her mind was already hanging in the air, half-suspended - to ask her to ignore her concerns? That was really too much to ask of her!

She didn’t waste any more time and whispered softly, her nimble old legs quickly stepping out of San’er’s courtyard—clearly, taking a bath was just a pretense, her real urgency was to find the old man and ask about the situation.

Yan Jinsu had long known that her mother-in-law was an impatient person, and she just smiled.

Making sure that the kids were not waking up soon, she quickly moved to the bathroom next door, where she quickly drew a bucket of hot water and took a brisk, functional shower.

It only took about ten minutes, at most, to even wash her hair.

Speaking of hair, Yan Jinsu, for the convenience of taking care of the children, had her hair cut short, shoulder-length in the county town before coming back, similar to Xie Jingzi’s student-style cut they got together.

Now on the street, it was immediately noticeable that Xie Jingzi and Yan Jinsu looked like cousins—hard to believe that Yan Jinsu was already the mother of two children!

Time really flies; in the blink of an eye, she had been living here for over a year.

Now, she had a pair of twin children, a boy and a girl, and her life was gradually progressing according to her plans. Day by day, life was getting better.

In the room, the wipe cloth that was previously just carelessly placed, along with the babies’ little clothes and such—Yan Jinsu’s thoughts wandered to her husband, and while she sighed, her hands moved even faster, briskly washing the small clothes—

Before Yan Jinsu could do more miscellaneous chores, the twins, having slept for almost three hours, woke up one after another.

Upon waking up, they could see their mom sitting not far from them, both the adorable twins showing identical sweet smiles, greeting their mom with "Ah, ah" sounds~

"Mommy’s Xiaojiu and Xiao Shi, you’ve both woken up? Good, mommy will change your diapers first, then you can have your milk~~"

Being alone, Yan Jinsu first changed Xiao Shi’s diaper, then Xiaojiu’s.

Fortunately, Xiaojiu always cared for his little sister and had no objections to mom’s prioritization of her.

After the diaper change, Yan Jinsu took out the freshly soaked milk bottles from the Space, one for each child, both semi-sitting on the bed and holding their bottles on their own.

Since the twins had a bit of strength in their hands, they now wanted to hold their own bottles.

Speaking of which, feeding formula this way might be the best for encouraging the babies’ self-care abilities?!

After getting off the train, the twins slept comfortably, unlike on the train where they probably sensed the presence of too many strangers and were reluctant to sleep much.

When they did sleep, it was only when nestled securely behind their mom’s back, and on her chest, that they could sleep.

Yan Jinsu watched the two adorable babies sucking on their bottles as if they were in a competition, using all their strength, truly, truly too cute~~

Compared to the vexing matters in the county town, when Yan Xiqing just heard from his son that his granddaughter had returned to her husband’s family homestead in Beijing, his old face clouded over. freewёbnoνel.com

"Grandpa, matters of the heart really can’t be rushed. Besides, with so much happening there recently, it’s better for her to stay at the old home," Yan Jinsi said with a smile, trying to console him.

Lately, his health had improved, allowing him to slowly increase his exercise, but many of his knowledge points were somewhat off. To be able to attend university normally, Yan Jinsi was studying very hard at home.

To get closer to his sister, he planned to make up his lacking knowledge points this year, so he could go to university in the Rong Territory where his brother-in-law was next year.

After all, he had heard that his sister’s little aunt attended university there, and it would better his chances to build good relations with the Xie Family, perhaps then his brother-in-law wouldn’t prevent him from seeing his sister.

With this goal in mind, Yan Jinsi was very serious about his studies.

"Hmph." The old man glared at his useless son and then at his smiling, happy grandson, huffed, and walked away.

"Don’t mind him, you rest well at home, and don’t overwork yourself," Yan Dongsheng said helplessly toward his increasingly childish old father, sighing speechlessly after he left:

"Your sister’s temperament is too guarded. If we want her genuine approval, we can only take it slow."

"Dad, Grandpa is just an old stubborn child, when Little Grandma comes back, she’ll be able to cheer him up, then Grandpa won’t be so lonely and bored."

"Right, we just hope Little Grandma’s illness can get better. Sigh..." Yan Dongsheng sighed resignedly.

His stepmother had fallen ill during the old man’s severe illness, provoked by acute distress, and spent much time grinding away her life, now her legs were barely functional.

She was taken by his stepsister to the south for treatment, and it’s been almost half a year with reportedly good results. Due to Yan Jinsu’s circumstances, the men of the Yan Family hadn’t been able to visit this step-room.

"Dad, don’t be like Grandpa, little aunt already said that she would definitely be back before the year ends. I heard she was in some county town... because that old traditional doctor is living in seclusion, he didn’t want to come out, otherwise we would have invited him to Beijing long ago."

"Hmph, those thoughts aren’t acceptable. If the person doesn’t want to, we can’t use our power to force them, lest your sister hears of it and will be the first to refuse you," Yan Dongsheng glanced at his younger son, unconvinced by his matter-of-fact tone and admonished him.

"Oh, I understand now," Yan Jinsi was startled, touched his head, and only when he saw his father walk away with a stern posture did he finally relax.

He knew his dad was in low spirits because ever since Mom came back, her health inexplicably deteriorated; she has been frequently awaking from her sleep in Jingzhe, and her previously good health has since waned.

The doctor diagnosed it as ’psychosomatic,’ and the Yan Family was helpless, only able to spend time trying to console her.

However, she kept saying that her ’lost memories’ were important, always wanted to remember them but couldn’t, and she often had dreams, but upon awakening, she couldn’t recall what happened in these dreams that caused her to wake up in a cold sweat.

The Yan Family was at a loss, only able to follow the doctor’s advice and administer some sedatives to help her achieve deep sleep.

Meanwhile, walking in the garden, Yan Xiqing was struck by the thought that his long-lost obedient granddaughter hadn’t stayed a day in the Yan Family before she became part of another family.

He was deeply unsettled by this, encompassing various aspects, including the prior issue of the fake granddaughter Yan Jinxian and Yan Jinsu’s failure to return to the Yan Family and acknowledge her ancestry.

As people age, they pay special attention to these old customs.

The guards, seeing the old master wandering aimlessly, only softly cautioned him when there were obstacles present, maintaining quiet accompaniment throughout.
