Reborn in the Eighties as a Housewife with a Space

Chapter 2428: Chapter 2422: Overheard

"Little sister, go wash the child. What’s so interesting about watching that fool?" Qin Yu noticed his sister looking at Ye Li with a mixed expression of amusement and disdain, so he directly told Qin Jiale not to watch Ye Li anymore.

"Yes, brother, Ye Li wasn’t wrong. Yuran does have a bit of bloating. He really went to buy digestive tablets. Let’s give some to the child later, or else it won’t be good if Qing Zhu returns and sees the child looking thin." Qin Jiale glanced at her brother, hoping Ye Li wouldn’t be wrongly accused, so she spoke up for him.

She knew the child wasn’t feeling well, but she hadn’t realized that after Ye Li left, Ye Zishu wouldn’t keep an eye on the child.

"Alright, I got it. Now go do what you need to do." Qin Yu nodded after hearing his sister’s remarks. He simply glanced at Ye Li and, seeing no other emotion on his face, made his final decision.

"I understand." Qin Jiale walked away, carrying the child, while Ye Li went to clean off the mud on himself. Damn, if it weren’t Qin Yu, he would’ve cursed.

"Brother, do you think brother-in-law and the others have found Ranran’s father? It’s been days without any news. Could he be dead?" Qin Jiale wasn’t trying to curse Ye Xuan, but it’s been so many days since he fell off the cliff, and there’s been no word from their sister. Surely, he’s not really gone?

"Don’t talk nonsense. They might just not have found him yet. They’ll return once they do. Also, Ye Li doesn’t know his brother’s in trouble. Now that Qing Zhu and the others have gone to look for him, we must trust them. Otherwise, who knows what will happen? From now on, don’t talk like that anymore. Maybe our sister and the others have already found him but haven’t returned yet." Qin Yu helped his sister bathe Qing Yuran as they talked, unaware that someone was eavesdropping on their conversation.

Ye Li never expected things to be like this. He thought Qing Zhu truly didn’t want the child anymore. But now, it turns out his brother is in trouble? No wonder they hurried away that day, and his sister-in-law, who usually never spoke to him, directly handed the child to him. Turns out it was due to his brother. He hadn’t seen his brother for a long time. Is this really bad news?

Ye Li leaned against the wall, listening to Qin Jiale’s conversation, making no noise while pondering what he should do. He wanted to go find his brother, but then he thought about the little child, who was so well-behaved despite being stuck with an uncle who knew nothing. If he left, what would happen to her? Ye Li thought a lot, unsure of what to do.

"Brother, I get it. But what should we do now? It’s been so many days, and we can’t keep it a secret forever. All they need to do is think a little to realize it’s impossible to keep anything from Ye Li. He just hasn’t said anything. With his wit, he could easily figure out we’re hiding something from him. What do you think he would do if he wanted to do good?" Qin Jiale contemplated that if Ye Li figured things out, he would realize there are hidden things in this matter. Plus, they didn’t tell him from the start, and now it’s even harder to explain.

Now, with so many days gone by, he can’t take good care of the child, so they brought her to their house. It all happened without him knowing. Once they tell him that it’s because his brother is in trouble, who knows how he’ll react?
