Chapter 728 Xi Yan's Inferiority
Although Mr. and Mrs. Xu felt sad to see their son injured, they were relieved when they knew he would recover. Seeing that all the children were present today, Mrs. Xu insisted on keeping her nephew and his wife for dinner. Xiaomai and He Lingting couldn't refuse, so they agreed.
It is said that one's mother's uncle is the most important person to him. He Lingting lost his parents when he was young, and his uncle is one of the closest people to him. He is usually busy with work and really does not have time to visit him often, so today he wants to make the old man happy.
Mother Xu was preparing food in the kitchen when she suddenly remembered her son's injured foot. She thought of making some bone soup to nourish him, so she said to Xiaomai and Xiyan, "Well, you two go play in the living room for a while! I'll go out and buy some food. You two can look around and see if there's anything you want to eat. I'll buy it for you."
"Mom, let me go! What do you want to buy?" Xi Yan asked. How could an old person be asked to do such errands?
"It's nothing. The boy's foot was injured. I heard from the older generation that big bone soup contains a lot of calcium, which should be good for his recovery. I just want to buy some big bone sticks." Mother Xu said.
"The doctor said the same thing when Achen was discharged from the hospital. Please wait! I'll be back soon." Xi Yan said as he walked to the door to put on his shoes.
"Wait, Yanyan, let me go with you! It's okay for me to stay here, and I can enjoy the beautiful scenery of your park by the way." Xiaomai also hurriedly chased out.
"Yes, go ahead. Be careful, both of you! And you don't have to go far. There's a fresh food supermarket at the gate of the community." Mother Xu stood at the kitchen door with vegetables in her hands and gave instructions.
"I got it, Mom." Xi Yan responded and went out with Xiaomai.
After the two of them went out, they walked and chatted. Xiaomai was always curious about how Xiyan could misunderstand Achen. Taking advantage of the fact that the two sisters were alone, Xiaomai's curiosity started to take over again, "Yanyan, let me ask you something!"
"Tell me! What are you talking about? You're being so mysterious." Xi Yan said with a cold look at Xiaomai.
"Then how did you find out that there was something wrong with Achen? It couldn't be your sixth sense! But your sixth sense doesn't work!" Xiaomai asked straight to the point.
"What nonsense are you talking about? Where does your sixth sense come from? I just found a shirt with lipstick on it when I was tidying up my closet. Plus, Achen didn't call home for a few days, so I felt a little uneasy." Xi Yan told Xiaomai as they walked.
"If he doesn't call you, you can go to him!" Xiaomai gave Xi Yan advice.
"I thought so too, so I called him, and guess what happened? A delicate woman answered the phone, and she called me Brother Chen so sweetly! The sugar content was definitely more than ten pluses." Xi Yan still feels uncomfortable when she thinks about it now.
"You're going to kill him after you're done?"
"No, I'm still relatively stable, okay? My mother-in-law noticed that I was a little absent-minded those days, so she advised me to visit the crew and relax. Unexpectedly, when I got there, I saw him lying on the bed like a master, with a beautiful woman standing beside him to serve him. You know what happened afterwards." Xi Yan told Xiaomai what happened without hiding anything.
After hearing this, Xiaomai was also very angry, "Achen is a bit too much, and he even has a beautiful woman serving him. What is his intention?"
"Don't be angry, Xiaomai. I only found out about this later. That woman was a minor celebrity in the crew. She happened to be there when Achen got into trouble, and she arrogantly thought that Achen was injured while trying to save her. So she begged Achen's assistant to let her take care of Achen. I didn't expect that she was bewitched by Achen's beauty and wanted to get promoted. She deliberately said those ambiguous words to squeeze me out." Xi Yan explained.
"This shameless woman, no wonder she is an 18th-tier actress, her character is really bad. Fortunately, Achen loves you deeply enough, what would you do if something really happened?" Xiaomai said with emotion.
"Xiaomi, actually I never thought that I could still have Achen. I can be said to be an orphan without father and mother now. He is a big star, handsome and rich. As for me, I am not good-looking, my figure is average, and I don't have any special skills, not to mention my family background. How can I deserve to keep such an outstanding man?" Xi Yan sighed and expressed her thoughts.
"Yanyan, why are you so pessimistic all of a sudden? There is no distinction between high and low in love! There is no reason to love each other. Don't belittle yourself like this in the future. You are also very good." Xiaomai persuaded Xiyan.
"Maybe I used to be young and frivolous, and I had some confidence because at least I could support myself. But now, if I leave him, I will probably be a useless person!" Xi Yan said with a self-deprecating laugh.
After hearing this, Xiaomai really wanted to pry open her head to see what was inside. How could she have such inferiority thoughts?
"Yanyan, you have changed. You used to be brave, confident and fearless of difficulties. What's wrong with you now?" Xiaomai asked worriedly.
"Xiaomi, I'm not afraid of you laughing at me. Since I gave birth to Xiaobao, in the past two years or so, Achen has been filming a lot and hasn't come home. As for me, I've been around my parents-in-law and the kids every day. I feel like I'm completely out of touch with society. I feel like I'm just a freeloader at home. I should go out and work! And suddenly I feel like I can't do anything well..."
"Yanyan, how can you think like that! Stop thinking like that right now. You and Achen have actually made great contributions to the family. It's only natural for him to go out and earn money to support the family. You can be said to be the backbone of the family. But if you weren't there to support the family, how could he work hard outside with peace of mind? So your contribution is no less than his. Don't think like that in the future, understand?"
"Well, I understand. You asked me why I don't hire a nanny if it's tiring to take care of the children. In fact, this is all I have left. No matter how tired I am, I have to do my best. If the nanny takes care of the children, then I will really be the one who eats for free in this family." Xi Yan looked at Xiaomai and said again.
"Yanyan, I really didn't know you put so much pressure on yourself. I'm sorry I couldn't accompany you when you were upset. I will definitely accompany you more in the future." Xiaomai hugged Xiyan distressedly. The happy girl she used to be has gradually drifted away as she has experienced more...
"Xiaomi, I feel much better after talking to you. I will try my best to adjust my mentality in the future. Okay, I won't say more. We're here. Let's go back quickly after shopping!" Xi Yan said, pointing to the supermarket.
Then the two of them bought some big bones and rushed back home. Mother Xu cooked a table full of dishes. After dinner, He Lingting and Xiaomai said goodbye and went home. Along the way, Xiaomai thought of Yanyan's words and felt a little heavy. She sincerely hoped that Yanyan could listen to her advice and be happier...
