Reborn in the 80s: The Smart Wife with a Secret Space Chapter 1258: Did You Get the Wrong Idea?

Fu Guangying was taken aback by Lu Qiufu's response: "Lu Qiufu, what do you mean by that? Are you ashamed of me?"

Lu Qiufu, mindful of her pregnancy, quickly responded, "Don’t talk nonsense, I didn’t mean that." He glanced at his wife’s pregnant belly and sighed inwardly. "Guangying, now that you’re pregnant, can we try to live a more peaceful life? During the time you've been married to me, how much of a laughingstock has our family become? Can’t you consider my feelings at all?"

A pang of guilt struck Fu Guangying, but she still grumbled, "If it weren’t for your incompetence, I wouldn’t have caused so many problems." Vice Captain Lu’s spirits sank, and he somewhat regretted his impulsive decision from the past.

Just then, a voice called out from the courtyard, "Guangying, are you home?" Hearing her sister’s voice, Fu Guangying instantly felt more confident. She glared at her husband and went out to greet her, "Sister, you’ve finally come." Fu Shanmei, noticing her sister’s expression, inquired, "What’s wrong with you? Did someone bully you?"

Vice Captain Lu immediately grew worried that Fu Guangying might say something rash. He feared his sister-in-law might actually storm over to Captain He’s house to demand an explanation. If that were to happen, how could he possibly continue to live in this housing compound? "Sister, please come inside and have a seat," he said, trying to de-escalate the situation.

Fu Shanmei cast a suspicious glance at them. "Are you two having a disagreement?" Vice Captain Lu quickly interjected, "Nothing of the sort, it’s just Guangying being a bit childish." With that, they all entered the house.

Understanding her sister’s personality, Fu Shanmei naturally offered, "Qiufu, you know Guangying’s temperament. If she does something wrong, you should correct her. If that doesn’t work, you can tell me, and I’ll handle her." But before she could finish, Fu Guangying exclaimed, "Are you truly my sister?"

Without waiting for Fu Shanmei to question her, she recounted the recent events. Fu Shanmei looked at her sister as if she were an idiot. "How have I taught you regularly? I don’t even know what to say to you. It’s a good thing they didn’t grab a broom and chase you away, and you still have the nerve to feel wronged?" Fu Shanmei, though quick-tempered, had sound principles. After thoroughly reprimanding her sister, she set down the food she had brought. "You’re about to become a mother. Think things through before you act and speak.

Who here doesn’t know that Captain He dotes on his wife? And that his wife is a university graduate from a good family background? Instead of trying to build a good relationship with them, you’ve repeatedly caused trouble. What are you thinking?" She had actually been considering visiting Captain He’s house to apologize after leaving her sister, but the gate to Captain He’s courtyard was closed. Thus, she abandoned the idea.

Xinyan and He Jinxuan returned from the small square, entered their house, and went into the space together to prepare some sauces. The following day, when Xinyan awoke, He Jinxuan had already prepared breakfast and washed all the clothes from the previous night. He Jinxuan entered the room affectionately. "Awake?" Xinyan reached out her arms for a hug, and He Jinxuan, with no reason to refuse, embraced her. "Want to sleep a bit longer?"

Xinyan rubbed her face against his. "No, today I still need to visit Granny Zhang and also my senior sister. If we’re late, we won’t have enough time. We also have to go to my grandparents’ place for dinner tonight; we promised that last week." He Jinxuan kissed Xinyan on the forehead. "After all that last night, are you still tired? Want me to give you a massage?"

Xinyan immediately pushed him away and quickly refused. "No need, I’m getting up now." She didn’t want a massage that would lead to ending up back in bed—he had done that before. "Pick out an outfit for me, and bring it over first. I’ll go wash up." After saying this, she quickly got up, put on her slippers, and headed to the washroom.

He Jinxuan was left behind, chuckling heartily. "Were you thinking something inappropriate?" Xinyan poked her head out and glared at him. "You’re the one with inappropriate thoughts, stop projecting them onto me." Seeing her small head peeking out, He Jinxuan’s eyes were filled with indulgent laughter. "Alright, alright, it’s my fault, I’ll get your clothes now." Xinyan was satisfied and nodded at him. "Good attitude, I’ll let you off this time."
