Chapter 349: Poor?
A clear female voice sounded from behind, scaring the boss so much that he almost fell to the ground.

When he turned around, he saw a little girl looking at him with a sinister smile.

The boss recognized the little girl at a glance as one of Qin Juan’s relatives.

“What are you doing? Do you know that scaring others can kill them?”

The boss was startled and said unhappily.

Qin Yang directly protected Lin Chuxia behind him, and Lin Chuxia was not afraid of him, “You haven’t done anything wrong, what are you afraid of? Where is my elder sister? Why are you still saying bad things about her behind her back?”

“You go look for your elder sister. I’m still looking for her. If you can’t come, then don’t come. My shop is still waiting for plates,” the boss shook his hands, looking resentful.

Qin Yang looked at the basin full of greasy plates and frowned slightly.

Is this what your elder sister usually does?

“You said Qin Juan didn’t come to work today?”

“She didn’t come, and she didn’t ask for leave,” the boss said, then looked at Lin Chuxia, “Do you believe it now, little girl? I’m not saying I want to deduct her wages. Look at her attitude towards work. She works for three days and rests for two days. It’s ok to be late and leave early, but she didn’t come today. If I didn’t feel sorry for her, why would I hire someone like her to work?”

“You say she is pitiful?” Qin Yang grasped the key point of the words.

“Ah, having to find a job while taking care of a child, isn’t that pitiful? Fortunately, the child was well behaved and stayed by my side, sitting quietly for half a day. But now it’s all right. I heard that the child has gone to school, so Qin Juan doesn’t have to worry about the child anymore…”

Qin Yang didn’t listen to him anymore. “Thank you, boss, for taking care of my sister.”

“It’s not like I can say I’m taking care of her. Qin Juan is very efficient and has never delayed my life even when she’s late… Hey, why did you leave? When I saw Qin Juan, I told her to come early tomorrow…”

Qin Yang took Lin Chuxia outside, got on his motorcycle and said to her, “Let’s go to my eldest sister’s house.”

He didn’t take his wife’s words to heart before, but after listening to his boss’ words today and seeing his elder sister’s working environment, Qin Yang felt that he was too naive before.

Maybe his elder sister’s life was not as good as he imagined.

The Zhang family also lives in a staff housing estate, which is not too close to Qin Yang’s workplace, but it’s quick to get there by motorcycle.

Qin Yang had never been here before and had only asked about his elder sister in the letter.

Fortunately, the residents in the unit’s staff quarters were all colleagues, and after asking around, I quickly found my eldest sister’s house.

The situation was unclear, and it was their first time visiting the house. At the gate of the family compound, the two of them bought a bag of fruit.

When it was time to cook, the Zhang family’s yard was quite quiet.

Qin Yang knocked on the door, and soon a well-dressed, slightly plump woman came out. She looked to be in her fifties or sixties. She should be older than Qin’s mother, but she was in better shape than her.

Lin Chuxia’s eyes fell on the bandage on the woman’s head.

Qin Yang knew the other person and greeted him politely.

The other party first looked between Qin Yang and Lin Chuxia, and only spoke with a smile after listening to Qin Yang’s introduction.

“Oh, it’s Brother Qin Juan. Look, I haven’t seen you for many years. I really can’t recognize you. Is this your wife?”

Qin Yang nodded, and Lin Chuxia followed Qin Yang and called out, “Dear (qing fourth tone) mother.”

Old Mrs. Zhang sighed, “I heard that you married a beautiful wife. It’s true. Look at how pretty this girl is. She’s obviously from the city. She’s very pretty and smart.”

Qin Yang looked into the room and asked, “Mom, where is my elder sister?”

Logically speaking, they should be able to hear what they were saying outside. The eldest sister would know they were coming and would come out to greet them.

Old Mrs. Zhang clapped her hands and said, “What a coincidence! Qin Juan went to work. If I had known that her brothers from her natal family would come, I should have let her take a day off.” Old Mrs. Zhang smiled kindly and asked Zhang Wenbin who was just coming out of the house.

“Do you know where Qin Juan works? Why don’t you go call her back and tell her that her brothers from her mother’s family are here. Look, I have a head injury and can’t cook anything good to entertain them. It’s a good opportunity to ask Qin Juan to come back and buy some good food.”

Having said that, Mrs. Zhang had no intention of letting anyone into the house.

Zhang Wenbin smiled when he saw Qin Yang and said, “I heard from your sister that you were transferred here a long time ago. I’m still talking about this. I’ll go over with your sister on the weekend. You just moved here, so you must be busy for a few days. We can also help you when we go over.”

“No need, brother-in-law. The house has been cleaned up, but brother-in-law and eldest sister are welcome to come over as guests. We welcome them anytime.”

Qin Yang spoke lightly and looked inside again.

Zhang Wenbin seemed to realize it at this moment, “Look, you were just busy talking. Mom, why didn’t you let us in? Are you so happy that you are confused?”

Old Mrs. Zhang also said, “Oh, really, I hit my head so hard that I feel a little bit stupid. Go to the house for a while. Wenbin, go find your wife.”

Zhang Wenbin was about to go out after hearing this, but Qin Yang said, “No need, brother-in-law. I just came from where my eldest sister works. She didn’t go to work today, so Xia Xia and I came to see her.”

“Not going to work?” Old Mrs. Zhang looked at Zhang Wenbin in confusion.

The latter slapped his thigh and said, “Hey, look at my memory. Juanzi didn’t go to work today. She said she would take Ningning to buy two sets of clothes. It’s getting cold now, and the child is growing fast. Last year’s clothes are too small.”

He looked outside as he spoke, “It’s already this late, he should be back soon.”

Lin Chuxia’s eyes fell on Old Lady Zhang’s head, “How did your mother get injured? It looks like a new injury from the past two days.”

Old Mrs. Zhang touched the back of her head and said, “Oh, don’t mention it. I wanted to cook for the children, but the kitchen floor was too slippery and I fell. I am really getting more and more useless as I get older. I couldn’t help them and I even caused trouble for them.”

“Oh, I see. We should be more careful then.”

“Who says it isn’t?”

Qin Juan was not at home, and Lin Chuxia and Qin Yang were not waiting at Zhang’s house.

After they walked out of the door, Lin Chuxia said with a sullen face, “They are lying.”

Qin Yang looked over.

“Sister, you are not an irresponsible person, right?”

Qin Yang nodded, “Eldest sister has the best temper. She is gentle to everyone and considerate of everything.”

“So, why would Big Sister take Ningning to buy clothes when she had work waiting for her? Even if Big Sister really wanted to take Ningning to buy clothes, she would have asked for leave from her boss.”

Furthermore, although Zhang Wenbin concealed it very well, Lin Chuxia still found a scratch on his neck and a wound on old lady Zhang’s head, which were both too abnormal.

Qin Yang’s face suddenly darkened and he turned around to go back to Zhang’s house.

Lin Chuxia stopped him, “We don’t know what’s going on right now. If you go in like this, the Zhang family will definitely try to stop you. Let’s go to the bun shop and call some people over first.”

In addition to Old Lady Zhang, the Zhang family also has Zhang Wenbin and Old Man Zhang. Although the other party cannot stop them if they force their way in, the current situation is unclear. In case something happens, having more outsiders can serve as witnesses.

“Then find a place to wait for me, I’ll pick someone up.”

Qin Yang also rides fast on a motorcycle.

“Okay, I’ll wait for you here. If Big Sister really took Ningning to buy clothes, she should be back by now.”

Her location is the only way to get to Zhang’s house.
