Rebirth Era: After the Beautiful Sister-in-law Refuses to Open Business

"Sister-in-law, I'm sorry, I shouldn't have asked you."

Qin Boyan apologized.

"No need to say sorry, you're just protecting your big brother."

Qin Boyan felt particularly uncomfortable after hearing Song Lan say this. He glanced at Song Lan cautiously and whispered, "I was wrong. I shouldn't have distrusted my sister-in-law."

"Okay, it's not a big deal. I won't take it to heart."

Song Lan smiled and shook her head.

……

Song Lan had agreed to treat Director Zhang and his family to a meal, so she started to get busy in the afternoon.

Qin Boyan and Qin Yaxin were also not idle, and were helping out under Song Lan's command.

At about 6:30 in the evening, everything was ready and Qin Boyan went to Director Zhang's house to invite people.

Looking at the table full of delicious food, Director Zhang and his family said that Song Lan was too polite.

"Sister Song Lan, you're really spending too much! This table is basically full of hard dishes. In my family, even the reunion dinner on New Year's Eve is not this rich!"

Zhang Meiyun said as she picked up a piece of braised pork and put it in her mouth, squinting her eyes with happiness.

"Sister, our New Year's Eve reunion dinner is not as exaggerated as you say, right?!"

The first person to speak was Zhang Meiyun's younger brother Zhang Haiyang. He stuffed a piece of scrambled eggs with black fungus into his mouth, chewed and swallowed it, and continued with a smile on his face: "For the reunion dinner on New Year's Eve last year, our mother not only made braised pork, but also stewed a chicken and roasted a fish. I remember you praised our mother for being generous and making such a sumptuous New Year's Eve dinner!"

"You little brat, could you please stop ruining my show?"

Zhang Meiyun glared at her brother, then snorted and said, "The New Year's Eve dinner our mother prepared was sumptuous, but it was still a little worse than the one Sister Song Lan treated us to today. Do you admit it?"

She looked straight at Zhang Haiyang with a provocative look.

"Yes, yes, the table prepared by Sister Song Lan is indeed very sumptuous. If I deny it, I would be lying with my eyes open."

Zhang Haiyang is thirteen years old and is about to start the first grade of junior high school. He is a sunny and cheerful handsome boy. Sensing the threat in Zhang Meiyu's eyes, he nodded hurriedly.

Well, this is actually blood suppression!

From childhood to adulthood, whenever Zhang Haiyang dared to contradict Zhang Meiyu, he would definitely be given a "love education" by his sister Zhang Meiyu.

Speaking of which, Director Zhang and his wife have five children in total, four sons and one daughter.

Zhang Meiyun and Zhang Haiyang are the youngest two, and are the two who currently stay with Director Zhang and his wife.

As for the eldest, the second and the third, the eldest works in the provincial capital, the second is engaged in geological exploration and is often away with the exploration team, and the third is in the army. Due to intense training and heavy tasks, he has little contact with his family throughout the year.

In short, the three older children in Director Zhang's family have returned home only a few times since they started working outside.

It was for this reason that Director Zhang gave up the yard.

After all, there are only four permanent residents in the family: the couple and their two young children, so there is no point in living in a yard that is too big.

Besides, the courtyard where Director Zhang and his family live now is not that small after all, it just has two fewer rooms used as bedrooms.

"You are a sensible boy!"

Zhang Meiyun said something to Zhang Haiyang. At this time, Wu Chunying pretended to be unhappy and glared at Zhang Meiyun and her brother and sister: "Eat your food well. If you make trouble again, I will cut you with my hands!"

Hearing this, Zhang Meiyun's brother and sister both shrank their necks. Their action made Song Lan, Qin Boyan, Qin Yaxin, and the two kids laugh out loud.

Well, both Factory Director Zhang and Wu Dong, two grown men, were amused as well.

After a lively meal, Wu Chunying and her daughter helped Song Lan and Qin Yaxin, their sister-in-law, to clean up the kitchen. The two families sat in the yard, enjoying the cool air and chatting. At about eight o'clock in the evening, Director Zhang and his family got up to say goodbye.

"Sister-in-law, then Qin Yaxin and I will go to the town middle school to report at noon tomorrow?"

After seeing off Director Zhang and his family, Qin Boyan followed Song Lan back to the living room and asked casually.

"Do you have any objection?"

Song Lan raised her eyebrows.

Qin Boyan shook his head.

"It's best if there is none. If there is, you have to hold it in."

Song Lan said indifferently: "Director Zhang has given a letter of introduction and has also called the principal of the town's middle school. If you and your second sister don't report, are you going to heaven?"

The town middle school is divided into junior middle school and senior middle school, and covers a large area. According to Director Zhang, the teaching is regular and the teachers are responsible. All the children of the Red Star Machinery Factory who are admitted to middle school attend the town middle school.

With Director Zhang's words, Song Lan naturally would not hesitate.

"I'll report in."

Qin Yaxin expressed her position.

If you don't go to school, you will have to wait for the local Youth League Office to come to your door and arrange for you to go to the countryside.

She doesn't want to work hard, facing the earth and back to the sky, going to work every day, sweating profusely, and being tired like a dog!

"You are in the second year of junior high school. You must study hard in school and don't use your mind on other things. Otherwise, you will not be able to pass the high school entrance examination and will be arranged by the comrades of the Youth League Office to go to the countryside."

Song Lan was giving Qin Yaxin a shot of prevention, to prevent her from just competing with classmates at school, becoming more and more deviant and wasting time.

“I’m sure I’ll be admitted to high school!”

Qin Yaxin snorted and said, "In my previous school, my academic performance was not the best, but it was in the top five."

"You blow it!"

Qin Boyan chuckled and looked at Qin Yaxin with disdain: "In the final exam of the first grade of junior high school, you only ranked eighth in the class. Have you forgotten this?"

"I ranked eighth in the class. How about you? In the final exam of the first semester of the second year of junior high school, it seemed..."

Before Qin Yaxin could continue speaking, Qin Boyan covered her mouth with his hand and said, "Speak less, no one thinks you are dumb!" The sister-in-law was still thinking of asking him to tutor her on the knowledge in the high school textbooks. Once this little girl Qin Yaxin said that he had ranked last in the exam, where would he put his face?

"Sister-in-law, it's getting late. I'll take my second sister back to her room."

Qin Boyan dragged Qin Yaxin away from the living room.

"What are you doing?"

As soon as he entered Qin Yaxin's room, Qin Boyan closed the door casually. However, before he could open his mouth, Qin Yaxin glared at him fiercely.

"If you don't want to get beaten, you'd better keep your mouth shut in front of your sister-in-law!"

Qin Boyan stood by the door with his arms folded. He raised his chin slightly and said uninhibitedly, "I ranked last in the final exam of the first semester of the second year of junior high school. That's because I missed several classes, not because I couldn't answer the test paper."

"How many classes did you miss? Second brother, you didn't know how many classes you missed, and you just failed all three. If Dad wasn't too busy to take care of our test scores, and Mom wasn't in good health, Dad would have broken your legs for sure. Let's see if you dare to miss an exam again!"

Qin Yaxin sneered.

"What do you mean I have three duck eggs?"

Qin Boyan glared: "I was absent from the exam. I didn't even enter the classroom and didn't see the test paper. How can I get a negative score?"

"There are three zeros on your transcript. What else can this be but a duck's egg?"

Qin Yaxin was not afraid at all. She also raised her chin and looked down on Qin Boyan:
