Chapter 1305: Chapter 1305: You Don’t Have to Force Yourself to Tolerate Anyone for My Sake
When Xinyan heard her sister-in-law’s words, she remembered the evaluation He Jinxuan had given this younger sister: a person with many thoughts, but knows how to avoid harm and pursue benefits.
After spending time together these days, Xinyan felt that her sister-in-law was a smart person, at least with decent values and easy to get along with: "Whatever happened before is already in the past for us, we have enough serious matters to worry about, no time to waste, don’t worry."
He Yanqing heard her third sister-in-law say this, and couldn’t help but admire it. Certainly, why would people bother holding onto such things?
The sisters-in-law exchanged pleasantries, agreed to bring the children over to the small courtyard on the sixth day for New Year’s greetings, and then hung up the phone.
Old Madam Gu saw her granddaughter hang up the phone: "Luckily, your sister-in-law isn’t a troublemaker, or she’d just be a bother to you."
Xinyan leaned against her grandmother’s shoulder with a smile: "She should be grateful she isn’t a troublemaker, otherwise I wouldn’t go to the in-laws’ house to support her."
Gu Wanqing heard her daughter’s words: "Some things are better kept to yourself, why say them out loud?"
Xinyan laughed even more brightly: "It’s fine, Jinxuan won’t mind even if he hears."
Gu Wanqing glared at her daughter: "Still laughing like a fool."
As soon as these words were spoken, Xinyan turned her head and saw He Jinxuan standing behind her, which made her smile even more brightly: "My Jinxuan wouldn’t fuss over such things, right?"
He Jinxuan, despite being in front of the elders, couldn’t be overly affectionate, and lightly said, "Yanyan always acts kindly to others. If there’s an issue, it’s certainly others provoking her. No need to tolerate anyone for my sake; she’s just fine like this."
Everyone in the room was quite satisfied with his response. Though if it weren’t for Xinyan having settled into a relationship with He Jinxuan before being acknowledged, they wouldn’t want to be the ones to break apart a loving couple, He Jinxuan’s conditions wouldn’t have really caught their eye.
But Xinyan hadn’t relented, and He Jinxuan was indeed sincere towards her, so they refrained from intervening.
As for the He Family, their Xinyan wasn’t someone who could be pushed around easily either; this time they didn’t need to say anything, she probably only treated the He Family as distant relatives, as she most disliked trouble.
The family dinner was bustling with laughter, and little Han Chaojun kept drooling, which made everyone laugh.
Xinyan and He Jinxuan didn’t leave that night, staying over at the Gu Family’s place.
The room that the Gu Family prepared for Xinyan had been thoughtfully organized by the elderly couple back in the day to ensure her comfort.
Mr. Gu, when arranging the house, directly allocated the two yards from the three-entry courtyard, one for his granddaughter and one for his daughter.
When the son came back, he also straightforwardly expressed that if one day the elderly couple passed away, in case of disagreements, they would seal off the courtyards between the second and third entries.
The mother and daughter would use the back corner gate directly without affecting anyone.
The rooms in the front two entries were left for the son.
Of course, the elderly couple hoped nothing would cause estrangement between them, but some things can’t be helped, so it’s better to clarify things ahead.
After all, the son is still young and is bound to marry and have children eventually, so some matters are better discussed upfront.
Regarding the Gu Family’s business, Mr. Gu had made allocations; his son didn’t like commerce, so after returning to the Capital, he gave him twenty percent of the dry shares, allowing him to take dividends each year afterward.
The elderly couple held onto thirty percent, while Gu Wanqing holding forty percent handed twenty percent to Xinyan when she was pregnant with little Han Chaojun.
Gu Wanqing still held twenty percent, and the remaining ten percent were scattered shares held by the long-time loyalists of the Gu Family.
The two returned to their room, closed the door, and entered the space.
After bathing, He Jinxuan naturally took out the hair dryer to help Xinyan dry her hair: "Going to visit the master tomorrow, what should we bring?"
Xinyan applied a self-made moisturizing cream to her face: "I made some ginseng honey earlier, take a few jars to the master and mistress, and some tea and fruit from the space. Catch a few fish tomorrow morning to bring along."
With her hair dry and the hair dryer put away, Xinyan was unexpectedly hugged by He Jinxuan: "Time to rest."
