Transmigration: I Have Storage Space in the Apocalypse-Chapter 672 - 668: We Just Did That

——————

"I, we just like that..." Xie Jingzi’s pale little face immediately flushed red upon hearing Third Sister-in-law ask about this, her eyes darting around in a somewhat flustered manner.

"Heh, you little girl, there’s nothing to be shy about. When I was your age, I was about to give birth to Xiaojiu and Xiao Shi. The older sisters-in-law were even earlier."

It’s the mindset of the times. Yan Jinsu wasn’t for fostering avant-garde thoughts in her little aunt either; conforming to public customs was actually a better way to survive.

The main thing is, although the little aunt is young, Zhou Zhenghui, who could already be called little aunt’s husband, is not young anymore, letting the little aunt delay for three more years, Yan Jinsu feels this idea is not very realistic.

Besides, society now is not like that of the future. In the future, if you go to school while heavily pregnant, you might get laughed at.

But now, because of the Cultural Revolution, most students are married, and there are plenty who attend school while pregnant.

"Third Sister-in-law~" Xie Jingzi really felt so shy.

Because her mindset was actually quite conservative, ever since she got engaged, the uncle seemed to let loose and his actions toward her became even more excessive.

Other than the final step, the two of them were no different from any ordinary married couple now. freewēbnoveℓ.com

If Zhou Zhenghui heard Xie Jingzi’s inner thoughts, he would definitely sneer with a dark expression: The difference is huge!

Only after taking the final step is it truly having the meat; otherwise, everything before is just dessert.

"I’m asking you, did you and Zheng Hui register for marriage?" Yan Jinsu approached the problem by looking at the key points first.

Seeing Third Sister-in-law shift the topic, Xie Jingzi’s blushing cheeks finally subsided a bit, and she obediently nodded:

"We’ve gotten the certificate. Once Zhou Zhenghui set the wedding date, it’s considered marriage, and with the certificate, he won’t let political opponents catch any loopholes."

"Mhm, so my youngest sister-in-law is already Mrs. Zhou?!" Yan Jinsu could only remind her little aunt this much; if the little aunt still didn’t get it by now, then it was truly Zhou Zhenghui’s fault.

"Um, eh?" Xie Jingzi was initially shy, but seeing the helpless expression of Third Sister-in-law rolling her eyes at her, she paused, and her embarrassment seemed to be pressed on ’pause’, coming to a halt.

What does Third Sister-in-law mean? Why does she feel a hint of mockery?

Indeed she is now Mrs. Zhou, that’s correct.

Because when she returned to Zhou family’s old house last night, the maids addressed her as ’Mrs.’, since Zhou Zhenghui wouldn’t allow anyone to call him young master, insisting that whether subordinates or maids, they all should respectfully address him as ’sir’.

Correspondingly, she became ’Mrs.’.

Uh, Mrs....?

So, is Third Sister-in-law hinting at that?!

"You silly girl, don’t forget, Zheng Hui is the legitimate eldest grandson of the Zhou family. Don’t be fooled by the multitude of his male cousins; he is the genuine main branch’s eldest son. When you went to his house, did any of the Zhou family elders give you a hard time?"

"That didn’t happen, my mother-in-law has a quite nice personality, she’s good to me." Especially enthusiastic, from time to time even caressing her belly, her face full of expectation...!

Xie Jingzi wanted to facepalm – if Third Sister-in-law didn’t remind her, she really hadn’t thought of it, could the good treatment from her parents-in-law actually be because she ’secured’ the uncle?!

Uncle is about to marry her, so the Zhou Family doesn’t oppose it? After all, Uncle is really not young anymore; he’s already twenty-nine years old this year, only a year younger than Third Brother.

This age and still not married, and there has never been a woman by his side before, the Zhou Family was starting to think Uncle had some kind of problem!

Finally, a woman of the right gender comes along; although her family background isn’t worth mentioning, she prevails with her good qualities, and her own home isn’t entirely shameful either. After all, she has the support of Jingchen, the Rong Guard Captain, so the Zhou family isn’t insisting too much anymore.

Now, they’re simply hoping that Xie Jingzi will show some initiative and bear a few more children for their Zhou Family.

"Pfft, have you figured it out?" Yan Jinsu patted her belly, watching her little aunt’s face twist in confusion and then suddenly light up with understanding, more amusing than watching a play.

Xie Jingzi’s little face turned a purplish black, not knowing how to continue the conversation, and cutely called out "Third Sister-in-law~," her tender voice so sweet it nearly melted hearts.

Of course, the one melted, was Zhou Zhenghui, who had just followed Jingchen into the main branch of the back courtyard.

He walked in and heard the little woman’s soft and tender voice, feeling like his hair was about to stand on end.

"Third Sister-in-law, Happy New Year," Zhou Zhenghui greeted Yan Jinsu first, then walked over to the little woman, took her hand with a smile, and asked, "Xiaozi, causing trouble for Third Sister-in-law again?"

Zhou Zhenghui felt that if he didn’t whisk his wife away soon, Third Brother’s dark expression might actually become tangible.

Jingchen indeed did not hold back; he sat down majestically in the seat that Xiao Yi had previously occupied, his long arm drawing his wife into his embrace, his hand naturally overlapping with hers on her stomach, he gently asked:

"Wife, have you rested well?"

"Uh-huh, I’m settled in. Zheng Hui is here; when did you guys come over? Was the road okay?" After greeting her future son-in-law, Yan Jinsu complained to her husband:

"Brother Chen, really, when the newlyweds came, you didn’t even let someone wake me."

How rude that was.

Although the little aunt has not yet formally hosted a wedding banquet, in Yan Jinsu’s opinion, once the certificate is signed, they’re officially husband and wife, and a wedding banquet is just a traditional formality.

"Third Sister-in-law, you’re being too polite," Zhou Zhenghui replied with a smiling grin.

"Exactly, Third Sister-in-law, that’s asking for it! You and Third Brother are my closest family members; surely you both aren’t starting to dislike me now?" Xie Jingzi was enveloped in Uncle’s embrace, initially feeling a bit awkward.

In the past when the two were courting, in front of others, Zhou Zhenghui would never be so bold. But since they got their marriage certificate, in front of acquaintances and relatives, Uncle does whatever pleases him, sometimes leaving her so embarrassed she couldn’t come down off the stage.

Thankfully, these were her Third Brother and Third Sister-in-law. Her Third Brother’s actions were even more domineering than Uncle’s, and seeing that the Third Sister-in-law never objected or caused a fuss, she began to reflect, wondering if her own thinking was too outdated?

"Silly girl, what nonsense are you spouting? Aren’t we just worried about you feeling uncomfortable without someone to accompany you?" Yan Jinsu gave the little aunt a displeased glare.

"Then you can save it, Third Sister-in-law. With you and Third Brother around, I’ll always be comfortable," she thought to herself. If it weren’t for fear of worrying the Third Sister-in-law, she’d outright say there’s no difference between Third Brother’s home and her own.

It’s a good thing she didn’t say that out loud. Even though Xie Jingzi is naive, she understands she’s now officially a daughter-in-law of the Zhou Family and can’t keep acting like a pampered young girl anymore.

However, seeing that there was no change in the way her Third Brother and Third Sister-in-law treated her, Xie Jingzi couldn’t help feeling much more at ease.

She was truly afraid her loved ones would be like some other families, treating the married daughter as water thrown out.

Mainly because when Xie Jingzi got engaged, not a single family member was present. She was genuinely anxious, afraid her loved ones were truly angry with her—
