Uncle Qin slept soundly through the night without any dreams until dawn. He only opened his eyes slowly when he heard a knock on the door. He sat up weakly and said, "Who is it? Why are you knocking on the door so early in the morning? It's so noisy."
Wang Lin's angry voice came from the doorway: "Qin Xiuyuan, come out here! What time is it? Get up now! The children are home, what are you doing?"
"We've been married for so long, we've had our arguments, but why lock the door? Who are you trying to keep away from?"
Uncle Qin scratched his head, puzzled, and said, "I didn't lock the door."
Why would he lock the door at home? He remembers not locking it before going to bed. But wait, if he had locked it, how did his wife get in last night? They did *that*.
I groggily got out of bed, opened the door, and saw the person standing there. Well, it was that familiar expression that made me feel breathless.
"Honey, you came over to sleep with me last night. I didn't lock the door, so don't try to frame me."
Wang Lin laughed in anger upon hearing this: "Qin Xiuyuan, are you out of your mind? I slept in the next room all night. When did I come to your room? Your door was locked, so I couldn't get in."
"Come on, tell me how I got into your room. There's a security camera, right? Let's show it to you. I think you're just confused."
Qin Xiuyuan frowned: "Yes, but last night, I clearly remember you coming into the room..."
"Alright, stop talking and come down to eat."
After Wang Lin finished speaking, she turned and left without looking at him once.
"No, why is she so unpredictable? She was so gentle last night, why is she so fierce during the day? Is she going through menopause? What an unreasonable woman."
Uncle Qin and his family sat at the table eating.
The three children across from him looked over, their gazes falling on the dark circles under his eyes. They asked with concern, "Dad, haven't you been resting well? Your eyes are all dark. Talk to Mom and make up."
"We've been married for so many years, there's no need to make a fuss anymore, but Dad, spending three million on a vase is indeed a bit expensive. There are so many other things you could do with that money."
The three children kept talking, which made Uncle Qin's anger rise: "No, this is the only hobby I have. Are you going to take it away from me too?"
Wang Lin looked at him and said, "Are you sick? Why are you shouting so loudly for no reason? It's not that you're not allowed to have hobbies, but look at what kind of hobbies you have."
"You have no talent for painting, and you can't sell your work. You won't even make back the cost of the materials. As for fishing, you'll come back empty-handed nine times out of ten, and we'll have to worry about you falling into the river."
"This time it's even more outrageous, directly auctioning off the things of the dead. Aren't you worried about those things bringing bad luck? What if you attract evil spirits back? That would bring unrest to your household."
Uncle Qin looked displeased after being scolded.
Seeing the anger in her eyes, he said, "Wife, don't go too far. You were so gentle and understanding last night. How come you've become a completely different person overnight? It's so strange."
Wang Lin scoffed, "Are you dreaming? I slept in the next room last night. Who was being gentle and understanding with you? Qin Xiuyuan, do something serious. You're so old and still so immature."
"You three are the same. Why can't you learn more from Wushuang? Even if you can't learn how to do business, at least learn how to please her. Our family can benefit more from that."
"If you can't become a capable person, then learn to suck up to powerful people. If you can't even suck up to powerful people, you're really useless."
The three exchanged a glance, their mood sour.
Uncle Qin slammed his chopsticks on the table and stood up: "Wang Lin, you should stop now. You promised me last night that you wouldn't force me to pressure the children anymore."
“If we have money, we should spend more; if we don’t, we should spend less. We shouldn’t make the atmosphere at home so oppressive. No wonder the children don’t want to come home. Who would want to come back in a family like this?”
“We’re not like this when you’re not home. You’re always scolding this person and that person when you’re home. You’re just a music teacher, not a dean of students.”
Wang Lin also stood up, glaring at him angrily: "Qin Xiuyuan, you've gone too far! How dare you say such things to me? If it weren't for me supporting the family, you would have..."
The brother and sister across from each other exchanged a glance, their foreheads starting to ache. After finishing their food in a few bites, they got up and walked outside, leaving their parents to argue and make a scene as they pleased.
Qin Yuting sighed, "They've been making this noise every day for over twenty years. Don't they get tired of it at all? It's pointless. I'm going to live at school."
"Where are you, eldest brother and second brother?"
"Yeah, go live in your own house and don't come back unless necessary. Let them argue if they want, anyway, it's no use trying to persuade them, they've been arguing for over 20 years."
The two were arguing incessantly in the restaurant when Uncle Qin, unable to catch his breath, suddenly blacked out and fainted.
Upon seeing this, Wang Lin's expression changed, and she quickly asked someone to call the family doctor over.
After the examination, the doctor advised, "The patient has a weak heart. Try not to have too many emotional fluctuations. He fainted because he was so angry. Be more careful next time."
"Oh, and another thing, this patient is old, so we need to be careful to be moderate in sexual activity, not too much."
"...??"
Wang Lin looked bewildered: "What? Doctor, what did you just say? When did he have sex with you?"
"Judging from the patient's condition, it happened last night."
The family doctor glanced at her dark face and seemed to understand something. He quickly changed the subject: "If there's nothing else, I'll head back now. Remember, patient, don't get too angry."
After everyone left, Wang Lin asked the nanny, looked up at the security camera, and asked someone to take it down so she could take a look.
He sat on the edge of the bed and watched until after midnight. Then the scene started to look strange. Qin Xiuyuan suddenly sat up and started talking to the air as if someone was beside him.
Wang Lin stared at the screen but couldn't see anyone.
What happened next was even stranger. He was seen holding a vase and doing strange things, which sent chills down one's spine. One would subconsciously look at the blue and white porcelain vase.
I walked closer to take a look, but didn't see anything wrong. Just as I was about to turn around and leave, I heard a woman's laughter that sounded very strange. When I turned around, it was gone.
Looking at the vase, Wang Lin felt a chill run down her spine.
The nanny came over and called out, "Madam, are you alright?"
"It's alright. Put this vase in the collection room, don't put it here anymore. Get a different vase. I don't like this blue and white porcelain one."
"Good lady."
Wang Lin turned and walked out. She had other things to do at school. Since the two of them were arguing all the time, she would try not to come back for the next couple of days so that they could both calm down.
When Uncle Qin woke up, the room was empty. He yawned and couldn't quite remember how he got back to the room.
