Chapter 268 Concealment
Duan Ruilian's sister-in-law Hao Liping was also specially asked to come to Yu Xinyan's place and gave the same instructions: "We will go out for dinner in a while and call you."
Yu Xinyan smiled and exchanged greetings: "Sister-in-law, I still have some food in my bag. I'm afraid it will go bad if I keep it for a long time, so I won't eat it tonight. Thank you."
After hearing this, Duan Ruilian's sister-in-law Hao Liping told her to pay attention to safety and come to the room to find them if anything happened, and then left.
Duan Ruilian saw her sister-in-law coming in: "Sister-in-law, where is Xinyan?"
Hao Li smiled calmly and said, "Your female classmate said she still had some food in her bag. She was afraid that she wouldn't be able to keep it, so she stopped eating at night. She probably didn't have any money."
Duan Ruilian put down the book in his hand and glanced at his sister-in-law: "Sister-in-law, what you said is wrong."
Hao Liping looked up at her sister-in-law: "What did you say wrong?"
Duan Ruilian stood up with a smile: "You know why I didn't object to your arrangement. It's because I know that my classmate Yu Xinyan can afford the room fee of staying in the guest house."
Seeing that her sister-in-law didn't understand, she continued: "She is the student I mentioned to you before, the student who won first place in the city and provincial mathematics competitions."
The couple worked in the city and rarely went back to the machinery factory. Only then did they understand what my sister-in-law meant: "I'm just telling you, why didn't you object to my staying? You're such a great classmate."
Duan Ruilian heard her sister-in-law say this: "I don't know about your kindness. It's raining so heavily. I have to think about you. It would be bad if you go back in the rain and catch a cold again."
She knew that her sister-in-law had been ill a few days ago, and if she was exposed to the rain and cold because of her ignorance, it would be her own fault.
Hao Li rarely goes back to the machinery factory, but she is really good to her sister-in-law. Originally, she wanted her sister-in-law to live at home for the college entrance examination. Unexpectedly, due to the weather, her home is a little far away from here. In order to let her take the exam with peace of mind, he proposed to open a room in a guest house near the test center, so that she would not have to travel back and forth and could have a good rest.
She was also worried that it would not be safe for her as a girl to live here. If her eldest brother stayed with him here, it would be difficult to live in a room. It would be too expensive to open another room, so she took the initiative to stay because she wanted her parents-in-law to know how good she was.
Yu Xinyan didn't know what the two sisters were chatting over there. She had already closed the door and entered the space.
It might have started raining since yesterday. It was extremely cold in the room, so she went directly into the space.
After steaming the rice, I went up to the second floor to read.

On the other side, when two liberation vehicles arrived at the gate of the family home, they were full of parents who came to pick up their children.
Only Qiu Qingmei didn't see anyone coming to pick her up after looking around for a long time. She didn't do well in the exam today. She had a dark face all the way home and broke out as soon as she entered the door.
Instead of waiting for my parents to greet me, I heard my second sister-in-law Wang Sulan coming out of the kitchen and saying, "Little sister, you are back. Dad is in the hospital. My eldest brother, my eldest sister-in-law, and your second brother have all gone to the city."
Qiu Qingmei became anxious when she heard this: "Dad was fine this morning, why is he in the hospital?"
When Wang Sulan heard her sister-in-law's question, she felt very unhappy, but she could only dare to think in her heart: "Dad fell down at the station today."
Qiu Qingmei was unhappy now: "Then they are all in the city, why didn't anyone go over and tell me?"
Wang Sulan is pregnant now and doesn't want to cause trouble for herself: "Little sister, I'll prepare hot water for you right away. You go back to the house and change your clothes quickly."
Qiu Qingmei naturally did not dare to joke about her body and entered the room with a frown.
At this moment, Qiu Gouxuan was lying beside the hospital bed: "Ever since Qingmei came to the capital, our family has always been in trouble. It's really evil."
Huang Yufeng was afraid that her son and daughter-in-law in the corridor outside would hear: "Old man, please keep your voice down. You must not let them know about Qingmei. Otherwise, I don't know what they will think?"
Huang Yufeng was afraid that after her family knew what happened to Qingmei, if any of her family members couldn't keep their mouth shut and told the story, wouldn't that be harmful to her daughter?
