Time Travel: The Vicious Female Supporting Character's Counterattack

Shen Xue's current appearance made Zhou Jingchen look like a crazy woman, with messy hair and chicken shit on her clothes. She was not pretty at all. If she were in the countryside, he would not have said anything.

Now she is his family and his wife. It is embarrassing enough that she is from the countryside. If she is also ugly, how will Zhou Jingchen maintain his reputation if the news gets out?

He took Shen Xue to the public restroom and said, "Xiaoxue, you don't have any other clothes, do you? Change into one and comb your hair again."

Shen Xue thought the restrooms in Kyoto would be different, but when she got there, she found a long line. She didn't want to change anymore, "Jingchen, why don't we go home? It'll be the same if we change clothes there."

She is really tired now and can't stand waiting in such a long line.

Zhou Jingchen saw several neighbor ladies standing at the toilet door, so he didn't force Shen Xue to change clothes.

If the old lady saw him, the news that he had brought his wife back home would spread throughout the building before he even entered the house.

When his classmates find out, they will definitely come and laugh at him.

Zhou Jingchen brought her to the door of her house, which was locked. Zhou Jingchen took out the key to open the door, and only then did he realize that the lock had been changed.

"Jingchen, what's wrong? Is the door unlocked? Don't you have the key? Why can't you unlock it?"

Could Zhou Jingchen say this because his parents didn't want him to come back and specifically changed the locks?

He smiled stiffly, "Maybe the locks at home were changed, and my parents didn't have time to tell me. It doesn't matter, we just have to wait for them to come back."

Shen Xue felt uncomfortable, but she couldn't say anything, so she could only follow Zhou Jingchen and wait at the door.

There were many families on this floor, and the corridor was narrow, with all kinds of things piled up. The coal stoves were all outside. Shen Xue was confused, "Jingchen, didn't their family leave? Why is the coal stove outside?"

“It’s more convenient to put it outside.”

Shen Xue looked at the surrounding environment and found it was completely different from what she had imagined. The building was indeed a building, but the corridor was too messy. Their home in the countryside was not so messy.

Shen Xue didn't know that there were so many residents here. As long as there were a lot of things, no matter how neatly they were arranged, it would look messy. What's more, they didn't arrange them neatly at all. They put things that couldn't be put in the house outside the corridor. It would be strange if they could be neat.

They were waiting at the door holding their children. A neighbor recognized Zhou Jingchen and said with excitement, "Hey, isn't this the fourth son of the Zhou family? He's back from the countryside."

The old lady looked at Shen Xue, "Jingchen, what is this?"

Before Zhou Jingchen could answer, Shen Xue had already introduced herself. "Hello, Auntie. I'm Jingchen's wife, Shen Xue. You can just call me Shen Xue. There's not much farm work in the countryside, so Jingchen and I wanted to bring our twin children back to visit their grandparents."

The old lady squinted her eyes at the children in their arms and said, "Twins, this is really rare, you are so lucky.

Your parents would be so happy if they knew you were back, now they have two more grandchildren."

Shen Xue thought what the old lady said was true and was happy. Only Zhou Jingchen couldn't laugh. He knew that the old lady was speaking in a sarcastic way. Everyone in the building knew that his parents didn't like him, otherwise they wouldn't have let him go to the countryside.

His parents don't like him, so how can they be happy when he comes back?

They were waiting at the door. Many neighbors came over to talk to Zhou Jingchen and asked him how he was doing in the countryside. Shen Xue was the first to answer.

"Jingchen, it's good in the countryside. I take care of you, and my parents take care of you. Jingchen doesn't suffer at all." She said this in order to let her parents-in-law know about her contribution through their mouths.

No matter what the neighbors thought in their hearts, they all smiled and praised Shen Xue for her ability.

Shen Xue felt a little flattered by the praise. People say that people in big cities like to show off, but she felt that everyone was easy to talk to, didn't look down on her at all, and even praised her for her ability.

Shen Xue was good at praising herself, almost to the point of exaggerating, "We have a lot of work to do in the countryside. I get up before dawn every day to work. I do all the big and small things at home, so Jing Chen doesn't have to get involved at all..."

She wanted to express that she was hardworking, but saying that made Zhou Jingchen look like a loser. She was a grown man who did not do any work and relied on a woman to support him.

Although he was, who wanted everyone to know that he was useless? The neighbors often looked at Zhou Jingchen with strange eyes. Zhou Jingchen's face was as black as the coal ball next to him, but Shen Xue didn't notice it at all.

I thought it was because he had been on the train for too long and was too hungry and tired.

"Jingchen, if you're too tired, why don't we go to Aunt Zhang's house and sit for a while? Aunt Zhang is a nice person and she even said she would cook noodles for us."

After she finished speaking, the other aunts covered their mouths and laughed. Aunt Zhang, who had just spoken, went home, fearing that she would really follow her home and make her cook noodles.

What an idiot! She couldn't hear that the other person was just being polite. Zhou Jingchen didn't want to pay any attention to her. If he had known earlier, he should have never come back and let her go to get a refund.

Now it’s good, bringing her back, even following him is embarrassing.

"Xiaoxue, when did you and Jingchen get married? Why haven't you heard your parents tell us about it?"

Shen Xue didn't know that Zhou Jingchen had never told his family that he was married and had children, so she spoke shyly, "Before Jingchen went to the countryside, he was injured and I saved him.

Later, Jingchen returned to Kyoto. I thought I would never see him again, but he unexpectedly came to our brigade to serve as an educated youth in the countryside. Jingchen was grateful to me and would give me gifts and talk to me from time to time. After a few interactions, we decided to get married.

Zhou Jingchen: “…” It was obvious that she was shamelessly plotting against him.

"Oh, then you two are really destined to be together."

"Yes, everyone says that Jingchen and I are a match made in heaven."

After chatting at the door for more than an hour, Shen Xue half-truthfully told a lot of stories about her and Zhou Jingchen in the countryside.

The neighbors had heard enough gossip and finally went home to cook. Soon, word spread in the building that Zhou Jingchen was an educated youth working in the countryside, and because he couldn't stand the hardship, he married a country girl and lived off her.

The Zhou family didn’t know that Zhou Jingchen had returned. The first person to come back from get off work was Zhou Jingchen’s elder brother Zhou Jinglin.

Zhou Jinglin was a government official, five years older than Zhou Jingchen. He was quite surprised to see his younger brother come back, and he started by saying, "Jingchen, why are you back? Do your parents know you're back?"

Zhou Jinglin had never heard his parents talk about it, so he definitely didn't know, but he still asked.

Zhou Jingchen felt inferior in front of his elder brother. Seeing him, he unconsciously lowered his head and said, "Brother, you're back. I decided to come back at the last minute. My parents didn't know I was back."
