Ruling the Historical Romance Novel as the Female Supporting Character-Chapter 54: Su Xinyue Set Her Eyes on Her Brother-in-Law
Just as they had finished their meal and stored the leftovers in the refrigerator, there came a heavy, pounding knock on the door. It sounded as if someone was trying to break it down.
The expressions of Xia Weiguo and Gao Huabin immediately changed, and they tensed up as if they were ready to confront someone physically.
However, Su Yijia just smiled and said, "That should be my parents coming over."
She hadn’t informed anyone at the Su family that she wouldn’t be returning last night. Waiting until this time to visit demonstrated their remarkable patience.
"They’re here! Stop knocking! If you break my door, you’ll have to pay for it!" Qin’s mother, now awake, grumbled as she crossed the yard to open the door.
She swung it open and saw Su’s mother, Su’s father, and a sulking Su Xinyue trailing behind them. Her already unpleasant face grew even darker.
"Why are you here?" she asked curtly.
"Is my eldest daughter here with you?" Su’s mother asked impatiently.
"Yeah, she’s here! She came over on her own accord. I didn’t drag her here. If you’re capable, just take her back," Qin’s mother retorted, lifting her chin mockingly.
If the Su family had the ability to take their troublemaker back, she would have someone play celebratory music for them as they left. Getting rid of this jinx would be a cause for celebration. Ideally, they’d never return.
Su’s mother was incensed by Qin’s mother’s retort, her face turning even more unpleasant. She didn’t want to waste time arguing with Qin’s mother and simply pushed past her to enter the yard.
"Mom, Kaize’s room is over there," Su Xinyue said, pointing to the spacious one-story house on the other side of the yard.
The Qin family’s small compound was relatively spacious, consisting of a two-story small villa on one side and a large one-story house on the other. There was a toilet on one side of the yard and a kitchen directly facing it.
Previously, Qin Kaize had chosen to live in the larger one-story house to avoid crowding with the rest of the Qin family members. 𝗳𝐫𝚎𝗲𝚠𝚎𝗯𝕟𝐨𝘃𝚎𝗹.𝗰𝗼𝗺
Su’s mother stormed into the room and found Su Yijia lounging casually on the bed, eating grapes. She ate one and peeled one to put into the bowl.
The electric fan was blowing in her direction, and the black-and-white television was tuned to the news. The three men were thoroughly enjoying this kind of program.
This leisurely atmosphere made not only Su’s father and mother envious but also stirred up a touch of jealousy in Su Xinyue’s heart. At least compared to the recent change in attitude towards her by Qin Mingcheng, she now believed that marrying Qin Kaize was the path to happiness.
Although her husband couldn’t move, at least she didn’t have to take care of him herself; there were people to help. They even had an electric fan, a television, a sewing machine...
Just a moment ago in the courtyard, she had seen the brand new Feige bicycle. In this day and age, owning a bicycle was already something to be envied. Uncle Xia had even bought her sister a ladies’ bike, which clearly showed how highly he regarded her sister. She had also received a generous dowry of five thousand yuan and an imported watch from a foreign trade store.
Yesterday afternoon, she had casually mentioned the watch to some of her wealthier classmates, feigning indifference. They couldn’t confirm the brand, but they deduced from the information that it was from a foreign trade store, shiny and foreign, which meant it was worth at least a couple of thousand yuan, if not more.
If it weren’t for her and Mingcheng, how could her reserved sister possibly live such a prosperous life?
If only she could marry Qin Kaize...
She was sure she would treat him even better than her sister did! Su Xinyue twisted her hands into knots, her eyes revealing her unmistakable jealousy.
