Transmigration: I Have Storage Space in the Apocalypse-Chapter 405 - 400 Definitely Going to Fail [100 Votes+]

——————

Moreover, even if Xie Jingchen could give her a Rongwei truck, Yan Jinsu still spreads her hands—she really can’t drive a manual car. freeweɓnøvel.com

At that time, did cars already come with automatic transmission?

Oh snap, she should be asking if cars at that time had gears? Well, they must have...

It’s not even the 80s yet, when would she be able to use a car? And then there’re her mobile phone, computer, three essential items of life, and surprisingly she doesn’t have any of them.

Shouldn’t she stop yearning for such luxuries and instead strive to lead the country’s technological advancements as soon as possible?

But she’s just an ordinary woman, truly lacking such grand ambitions.

Among the Xie Family members, she hasn’t noticed anyone particularly talented, except perhaps Uncle Xie Laosan has a slightly sharper mind, but due to minimal interaction and communication, she really doesn’t know him very well.

As for the younger uncle Xie Jingyang, well, Yan Jinsu really isn’t trying to belittle him, she just feels he’s more suited to a comfortable life—as long as he can take good care of himself and the elders, she thinks that’s enough.

Sometimes, what people should do most is to recognize their own limits.

Thinking this, Yan Jinsu lets out a deep sigh.

If it weren’t for the fact that the Xie Family members are her dear husband’s relatives, she really wouldn’t look up to these people.

We won’t mention Eldest Xie who is indecisive and lacks conviction. Xie Laosan seems okay for now, but what he becomes in the future is unknown. Xie Lao Si? Yan Jinsu can’t be bothered to comment on him. His only redeeming quality is that he’s aware of his flaws and listens to others’ advice.

Most importantly, he is the most fitting to take care of Mr. Xie’s parents.

Right, Yan Jinsu absolutely doesn’t plan to live with her in-laws for a lifetime.

She just thought that since her in-laws were in a tough spot and she needed someone to take care of her, that she would consider buying a house in the county town to settle down.

Now that the in-laws are doing well and her younger uncle is steadily establishing his job, and Xiao Si and Xiaoqi have corrected their temperament, it’s just up to the younger uncle to make a stand.

Right, with Yan Jinsu’s keen perception, how could she fail to notice that her little uncle had his eye on Jiang Xiaoying, the maternity matron?

Speaking of which, she didn’t harbor any ill thoughts inside and had even probed Mom-in-law about the capable and diligent Sister Jiang. Who knew that when she first started discussing Sister Jiang’s character, Mom was quite happy and interested.

But when it came to discussing a potential relationship for the younger uncle, Mom’s brow furrowed!

This made Yan Jinsu immediately halt the topic.

Anyway, Yan Jinsu could see that Mom-in-law was unwilling about having someone of Sister Jiang’s status become her daughter-in-law.

Yan Jinsu considered herself quite perceptive; seeing Mom-in-law’s displeasure, of course, she wouldn’t bring it up again, but in her heart, she lit a candle for her little uncle—it seems his love life is even less smooth than the little aunt’s!

Ultimately, it’s the little uncle’s own matter of the heart. Yan Jinsu has already overstepped by asking once, seeing Mom-in-law look unhappy, so she let it be.

However, Jiang Xiaoying’s mood had been down for two or three days, and Yan Jinsu knew the reason.

It was because when she asked Mom-in-law for her opinion, it was just as she happened to see Sister Jiang washing vegetables in the kitchen, leading her to blurt out the question, asking on behalf of Sister Jiang, you could say.

In her view, now that Mom-in-law has made her stance clear, as long as Sister Jiang has any sense, she wouldn’t stubbornly rush forward, saving herself embarrassment and sparing everyone discomfort.

Based on her observations, Sister Jiang had already rejected the younger uncle; it was just because the younger uncle’s prospects were quite good [heavy fog], her mouth said no, but her heart still harbored some thoughts.

Now she had helped Sister Jiang figure out Zhou Xiuhua’s intentions. As long as she is not a fool, she would definitely turn around immediately and stop probing blindly.

Jiang Xiaoying did hear it and understood it all too well, but her heart still ached.

She thought so, Aunt Xie seemed nice but if she knew that Xie Jingyang liked someone with her own conditions, she would surely oppose it.

In that case, there was no chance for happiness between the two.

Jiang Xiaoying wasn’t stupid; upon hearing this, she immediately abandoned this budding crush.

However, the problem was that while Jiang Xiaoying had given up, Xie Jingyang did not see it that way.

He believed that once Xiao Ying had thought it through clearly, she would certainly accept him.

For now, Xiao Ying was still working as a postnatal caregiver for his Third Sister-in-law, and obviously, she was too embarrassed to make her feelings known to everyone; he also thought there was plenty of time and no need to rush.

Fortunately, Xie Jingyang was not too foolish. At this time, he knew he had to listen to his mother’s words. So realizing he couldn’t get through to Jiang Xiaoying, he thought about notifying his mother, firstly, to ask for her opinion, and secondly, if there was anything, his mother would definitely know more than him.

After all, it wasn’t just about him; behind him, he had a son and a daughter. Even though he quite liked Jiang Xiaoying, he would only propose if Xiao Si and Xiaoqi didn’t object.

Now, his personal matters still had to be put behind Xiao Si and Xiaoqi’s!

Compared to Jiang Xiaoying, what Xie Jingyang didn’t know was that Xiaoqi already had the ’image’ of a mom in her heart, which wasn’t so easily deceived.

This made Xie Jingyang’s marriage prospects much more challenging.

Xiao Si was easier to talk to; he was a boy with a carefree nature and the eldest son, always favored by grandparents, and Dad had always shown that he valued him and his little sister. He never thought there was anything wrong with Dad remarrying.

After all, he was older and knew in the county town that divorce was not unheard of and even common.

Even in the small alley of Fifth Street where they lived, there were two divorced households. And many children in their kindergarten were from single-parent families.

Thus, although it was only the late ’70s, divorces were nothing new.

When a couple truly couldn’t stay together, who cared about whether maintaining a good reputation sounded nice or not.

In a practical sense, an amicable breakup when unable to continue was fairer to the children.

After all, there’s no such thing as an everlasting banquet in the world.

Xie Jingyang thought very simply, but as soon as he opened his mouth, he saw his mother clutching her chest, looking at him with startled and frightened eyes!

At this moment, fortunately, Zhou Xiuhua had taken her youngest son into her room to talk about private matters when she heard he wanted to speak with her.

Otherwise, if Dad and Third’s wife saw Zhou Xiuhua being so upset that her chest hurt, Xie Jingyang would definitely be in trouble!

"Fifth, are you saying that you’ve taken a liking to Jiang Xiaoying?" Zhou Xiuhua sat on the bed, staring at her bewildered youngest son and asked in a low voice.

"Um, Mom, don’t be angry. I’m just asking for your opinion. If it’s not okay, then, then let’s forget it..."

Xie Jingyang was not stupid. Seeing his mother react this way, he hesitated and dared not commit to a firm stance.

If he really upset his mother, could anything good come out of it?
