The cannon fodder female supporting role in the misplaced life

Although the problem was solved, in order to prevent Aunt Qin from asking more questions, Xu Yingying decided to divert their attention. She stood up and said, "Aunt, Uncle, you have all finished your meal, right?"

Looking at the empty plates on the table, they all nodded and signaled Xu Yingying to continue.

Xu Yingying continued, "Then I'll wash the dishes."

When Qin Shu heard that Xu Yingying was going to wash the dishes, he was the first to disagree.

"Yingying, I'll wash this bowl later. You and Tongxin can go back to your room and have some rest. You're tired today."

"Yes, Yingying, your aunt will wash the dishes. You can go back to your room first!" Li Zhiqiang also felt that guests should not be asked to wash dishes.

"Cousin, come with me into the room, I have something to tell you." At this time, even the ten-year-old Li Tongxin realized that her parents didn't want her cousin Yingying to wash the dishes, so she had to do her part to bring her cousin Yingying back to the room.

Facing the kindness of this family of three, Xu Yingying felt that, apart from being ruthlessly abandoned by her scumbag parents, the original heroine had been treated with kindness by all the relatives she had met so far.

But she washed the dishes not only to divert the attention of the three of them, but mainly to get her cheap aunt to let her little cousin do some housework that she could do.

This not only allows my little cousin to understand the hard work of her parents, but also lets her know that everyone has to contribute to their own family, and such a family is a healthy family.

Therefore, Xu Yingying did not follow Tong Xin back to the room, but said, "Aunt, uncle, cousin Tong Xin, I am already a sophomore in junior high school and no longer a child. Although I am not a member of your family, I hope you can give me the opportunity to do some housework within my ability."

After hearing Xu Yingying's words, the three of them fell silent again.

Faced with this child who sincerely wanted to do housework, Qin Shu couldn't say anything to ask her not to. She just looked at her own daughter, Li Tongxin, who was only two or three years younger than Xu Yingying, and she had never thought of asking her to help her. After all, she had been an expert at housework since she was a child, and things around the house could be done in a few seconds. She didn't need her at all, but Xu Yingying's words made her a little defensive.

Just when Qin Shu was lost in self-reflection, she heard Li Tongxin say softly, "Cousin, let me take a shower with you." These words entered Qin Shu's ears like the sound of nature, making her feel extremely relieved and surprised.

This time, Qin Shu didn't reject Li Tongxin's kindness as usual. Instead, she silently watched the two children skillfully clear the dishes, then walked to the sink together to wash the dishes. Although their movements were a little unfamiliar, they were full of seriousness and concentration.

Li Zhiqiang, who was watching this heartwarming scene, suddenly said with emotion: "Tongxin has grown up and has learned to do housework on her own initiative." His eyes revealed pride and joy in his daughter's growth.

After hearing this, Qin Shu couldn't help but glance at her husband with a hint of reproach in her eyes. The corners of her mouth rose slightly, and she said softly: "The children all know to take the initiative to help with housework and share some responsibilities, but you always push all these things to me alone." Her words were full of dissatisfaction and expectations towards her husband. She hoped that he could participate more in family affairs and share the burden of housework.

However, Li Zhiqiang seemed unconcerned, his face etched with a resolute expression, refusing to admit he hadn't fulfilled his responsibilities. He smiled faintly and replied casually, "Of course not! I've always been a hardworking and good husband!"

Qin Shu saw this and was furious. She decided not to tolerate her husband's irresponsible attitude any longer. She puffed out her chest and sternly retorted, "Then why didn't you just say you'd wash the dishes yourself? Instead, you asked me to do it?" This time, she was determined to make her husband recognize his mistakes and take responsibility.

"You usually wash the dishes, I don't think you are used to it." After Li Zhiqiang said this, he felt a little embarrassed and guilty, because this reason was too far-fetched.

Li Zhiqiang immediately realized his mistake and quickly changed his strategy. He began to coax Qin Shu in a gentle tone and said, "I'll give you a good massage tonight. You've worked hard lately, honey." He knew that sometimes it takes a small gesture to make the other person feel warm and cared for.

Qin Shu's dissatisfaction gradually dissipated when she heard this. She understood that Li Zhiqiang still cared about her. After being married for many years, Qin Shu didn't want to argue in front of the children, so she didn't pursue the matter any further and accepted Li Zhiqiang's apology.

The atmosphere between the two became harmonious, and Qin Shu told Li Zhiqiang what Xu Xiaofeng had said to her today. After hearing about what Xu Yingying had recently experienced, Li Zhiqiang frowned and said with some concern: "Wife, you should pay more attention to her when you have time." He knew that Xu Yingying had always been strong, but this incident might have made her feel helpless and confused.

Qin Shu nodded, a helpless look on her face, and said, "Nonsense, of course I know. The main reason is that Xiaofeng is right. We are not Yingying's parents after all. When encountering such things, it would be better if the parents are around. But I don't know where my sister has gone. It really makes me angry." Her heart was full of worry and dissatisfaction with her sister. She felt that her sister was too irresponsible to leave on her own, and it also made people worry.

Li Zhiqiang patted Qin Shu's shoulder gently and comforted her: "Don't be angry, maybe she has her own things to deal with. However, we have to find a way to find her. After all, she is wandering outside alone, and we are worried about her." He knew very well that Qin Shu had deep feelings for her sister and hoped that she could come back soon.

Qin Shu sighed and said, "Yes, I know that too. But every time I think of her, I can't help but get angry. How can she be so irresponsible?" There was a hint of anger and disappointment in her voice, and she felt unable to understand her sister's behavior.

Li Zhiqiang looked at Qin Shu gently and said, "Okay, don't get angry and hurt yourself. Let's think of a way together to see if we can contact her. Maybe she just needs some time and space to adjust herself." He tried to calm Qin Shu's emotions, and at the same time expressed his determination to face difficulties with her.

Qin Shu looked at Li Zhiqiang gratefully, her mood gradually calmed down, and she said, "Thank you, husband. Sometimes I really feel so lucky to have you always by my side to support me." She held Li Zhiqiang's hand tightly, feeling his warmth and strength.
