Sixty years old with the army, the heirless boss loves his fertile wife

Chapter 270 Troublesome Trivial Matters

Hearing what Sister-in-law Zhan said, Tang Qiyue felt a little embarrassed.

She overlooked this matter, assuming that Sister-in-law Zhan was leaving because her mother was leaving and there was no one to take care of her children.

Losing a worker can have a significant impact on one's life.

"Do you need us to explain?"

Tang Qiyue still asked a question, genuinely afraid that Sister-in-law Zhan would lose her temper.

Sister-in-law Zhan rolled her eyes at her: "Mother-in-law has already told everyone that she's leaving. There's no use saying anything now. We'll just have to bear the blame!"

Tang Qiyue: ...That is indeed a bit unfair.

This is probably what normal sister-in-law issues are like, along with some other trivial family problems. It's just that she hasn't had any real contact with them before, so she hasn't thought about them that much.

This is not Tang Qiyue's fault, after all, Tang Qiyue was still young when her mother and father separated.

Although she continued to live in the Tang family, with Old Madam Tang protecting her, Tang's father and his women and children didn't dare to cause too much trouble. Besides, Tang Qiyue was a girl, and she would definitely get married in the future.

Without a conflict of interest, there's no reason for each other to harm one another.

After their marriage, Zhan Zeye took Tang Qiyue with him to the military base. Because of Zhan Zeye's status, their life as military personnel was considered high-level on the island, and the surrounding families all fawned over her and would never offend her.

Perhaps the biggest problem in my life is having Tang Chunlan, this troublesome person.

The rest of the things to worry about are survival and the system.

Tang Qiyue thought about it carefully and realized that she didn't seem to be a qualified daughter-in-law or a qualified sister-in-law.

However, she did not regret it.

After all, she's the one who has to live her life, and she's very satisfied with it now.

She will absolutely not allow anyone to make her uncomfortable.

However, seeing Zhan's sister-in-law's awkward appearance, Tang Qiyue thought that Zhan's sister-in-law was also Zhan Zeye's sister-in-law, and she had been taken care of by Zhan's mother all these years. Although she had her own thoughts, she wouldn't be too troublesome.

“Grandma may not be back for a while after she leaves for our place. You and my brother probably know that Zhan Zeyi must have told you. We’ll have to trouble you to take care of the old house. You and my brother are working so hard!”

Having said this, Tang Qiyue finally understood how to help them.

Some relationships are a waste if you don't use them.

"Zhan Zeye won't let his older brother and sister-in-law continue to suffer like this!"

Although it wasn't explicitly stated, it stirred a burning desire within Sister-in-law Zhan.

Why has she been acting so strangely and speaking in a sarcastic tone these past few days?
She just wanted to benefit from his kindness, but her brother-in-law wouldn't step up, and her husband was a blockhead. With her mother-in-law gone, and so many children to raise, what could she, a mere woman, possibly do?
Now that Tang Qiyue brought it up, Sister-in-law Zhan had an idea.

"Sister-in-law, are you serious?"

Sister-in-law Zhan excitedly tried to grab Tang Qiyue's arm, but Tang Qiyue dodged away.

"Sister-in-law, let me ask Zhan Zeyi when I get back. He definitely has a plan!"

Even if you don't have it, it's not too late to get busy now.

Gu Yanting didn't want to say anything to Zhan Zeye all along, so he decided to take advantage of the situation.

Tang Qiyue may be too lazy to care about these interpersonal relationships, but that doesn't mean she doesn't know that these relationships can be used.

Sister-in-law Zhan rubbed her hands together: "Sister-in-law, your brother and I know our limitations. We can't do anything big. We just want a better life, a higher salary, and to support our children!"

The meaning is very clear.

Their original jobs were indeed tiring.

It's all physically demanding, and now that Brother Zhan and his wife are getting older, they're really not suited to do these things, and it's not good for their health either.

Sister-in-law Zhan has gray hair now. Tang Qiyue nodded to indicate that she understood.

As they were talking, they heard Zhan's mother call out from next door, telling Tang Qiyue to go back. Zhan's sister-in-law quickly pushed Tang Qiyue, saying, "Your mother-in-law is calling you, go back and see her quickly!"

What she really wanted to say was: Go back and check on our work.

Tang Qiyue did not expose her sister-in-law's little scheme.

Compared to those who secretly plotted against them and wanted them dead, Sister-in-law Zhan was quite lovable.

Back in the main house, Zhan Zeye had already finished eating his noodles.

Zhan's mother held Tang Qiyue's hand: "Your sister-in-law didn't say anything that made you uncomfortable, did she?"

Tang Qiyue shook her head. She didn't want Zhan's mother to have any opinions about her sister-in-law, so she said that she was only surrounded by people because her sister-in-law had dragged her to her house to talk.

Zhan's mother believed that although her eldest daughter-in-law had many shortcomings, she was still quite sensible and not so foolish as to want outsiders to laugh at them.

With this incident as a foundation, Zhan Mu nodded in satisfaction.

Are you planning to leave tomorrow?

Zhan Zeye nodded to Tang Qiyue.

“I haven’t been back for over a month, and I don’t know how the children are doing. I need to go back and check on them. Those three rascals are too noisy; I’m afraid Chunying won’t be able to handle them!”

Zhan Zeye pointed it out directly.

Besides, he's been away from the island for so long, I don't know if Political Commissar Wu and Yang Tianqi can handle it.

Tang Qiyue didn't mention arranging jobs for her elder brother and sister-in-law. Instead, she told Zhan's mother to rest early so she could leave the next day.

Zhan's mother was very cooperative and even said she was going to find her old friends to deliver some things, so she left with a basket.

Tang Qiyue then recounted what she had just discussed with Zhan Dasao. Zhan Zeye thought for a moment and said, "Then I'll call Gu Yanting later."

This isn't a big deal; he's just looking out for his older brother, and nobody can say anything about it.

Tang Qiyue asked in confusion, "Don't we need to send something?"

She still maintains basic social interactions.

Zhan Zeye shook his head: "The people behind him are hoping I can use them, so they can contact us through my older brother in the future!"

Tang Qiyue: ...

There's no problem with each person getting what they need.

"This shouldn't be considered a violation of principles, right?"

Zhan Zeye is a soldier after all, and he can't let himself be schemed against over something so trivial.

Tang Qiyue clearly didn't understand what she and Zhan Zeye represented. It was just a promotion for her older brother and sister-in-law, not a particularly good position, just from ordinary employees to a small leader.

Besides, although my elder brother and sister-in-law don't have any great abilities, they are diligent and conscientious, and their work is impeccable.

After listening to Zhan Zeye's analysis, Tang Qiyue told him to make a call quickly, otherwise who knows what changes might occur when he left.

Zhan Zeye asked her to come with him: "We'll go see the old commander later!"

Since we're already here, we should still take a look.

Tang Qiyue did not object. Anyway, it was still early, so going out for a stroll would be like taking a walk.

What the two of them didn't expect was that as soon as they registered and entered the compound, they heard that something had happened to the old leader's wife.

Tang Qiyue and Zhan Zeye both realized something was wrong and quickened their pace. When they rushed over, they saw the old leader's wife being carried onto a stretcher, and the old leader looked very nervous!
