Chapter 1141: Chapter 1141: A Wife Is Meant to Be Cherished
Xinyan felt a bit disagreeable after listening: "If you don’t speak up, who will know you’ve been upset? Won’t your big sister-in-law become even more arrogant?"
She paused for a moment: "Moreover, if it goes on like this, won’t the two kids have issues? Where’s your fierce spirit gone from before?"
He Yanqing knew Xinyan cared for their little family: "I’m just thinking we’re new here and don’t want people to think we’re troublemakers."
Xinyan sighed inwardly and asked some specific questions: "You can’t keep going like this."
She thought for a moment and said: "You can’t keep this from Ziqiang, you better catch her in the act, otherwise, words are just words, and you might end up harming yourself."
He Yanqing looked at Xinyan: "What should I do then?"
Xinyan looked at her: "The most important thing between husband and wife is honesty. If you keep bearing this alone, not only will you be mentally exhausted, but you might also explode someday and be in the wrong.
Once you talk to him, he’ll pay attention. I believe Ziqiang will figure out a way to solve it, which is better than sulking on your own."
Seeing He Yanqing starting to relax, she continued: "Besides, even if he doesn’t care, your third brother is still in Beijing."
Seeing she was listening, she then said: "Come on, let’s chat while we cook in the kitchen."
The two were efficient, and soon made two bowls of hand-pulled noodles, topped with tomato and egg stew, which tasted great.
After the meal, Xinyan wanted her to stay a little longer, but He Yanqing said she had to go back to work in the afternoon, so Xinyan didn’t insist.
As He Yanqing got up to leave, Xinyan whispered a few instructions, making He Yanqing’s eyes light up: "Okay, I got it, thanks, third sister-in-law."
Hearing this call of third sister-in-law reminded her of the wedding date set yesterday, and she shyly said: "We set the wedding date yesterday, meant to go tell you in person..."
Before she finished, He Yanqing excitedly asked: "What day? Did you tell the family?"
Xinyan smiled slightly: "It’s set for August 16th, your third brother will call home when he has time."
Upon hearing this, He Yanqing felt her unhappiness fade: "I’ll come early to help when the time comes."
Xinyan didn’t refuse, smiling and nodding: "I can’t thank you enough for the hard work."
She went back into the house and took out some homemade dried fruits and jerky, along with some southern fruits: "Take these back for the kids."
No matter what, He Yanqing refused to take it: "No, no, I can’t just keep taking."
Xinyan stopped her: "I’m telling you to take it, you take it. It’s for the kids, you can’t refuse on their behalf.
Moreover, bringing some things back is also to remind the Nie Family that you have family here in Beijing, people to rely on."
Hearing this, He Yanqing felt her spine straighten. She was worried that Xinyan would find her a bother coming over without notice.
But hearing this, she felt warm inside; "Thank you, third sister-in-law."
Xinyan patted her shoulder: "We’re about to be family soon, don’t stand on ceremony. If anything happens, don’t keep it bottled up."
Watching He Yanqing board the bus, she finally turned and headed to the school.

The Transport Company Residential Compound
Wang Baoliang was helping out in the yard with Captain He: "Jinxuan, are you putting bricks all over the yard?"
While working, He Jinxuan replied: "Leaving a patch on each side of the yard, to make into flower beds, I’ll plant some flowers then."
Wang Baoliang grinned widely: "Does your wife like flowers?"
With that, everyone in the yard stopped and looked at He Jinxuan.
He Jinxuan wiped his sweat with the towel around his neck: "Yeah, she likes flowers and plants, and she’s good at nurturing them."
A young man helping out teased with a smile: "Captain He, you’re spoiling your wife too much. If this gets out, our residential compound will surely buzz."
Everyone in the yard understood naturally.
They all started laughing.
After finishing his work, He Jinxuan stood up straight: "Bringing a wife home is to love her, as for other households, it’s not my business."
