Reborn in the Eighties as a Housewife with a Space

Chapter 546: Chapter 541: Affection
Today, Qin Jiale made crucian carp soup for her sister, as she had learned from Fang Hong yesterday that crucian carp soup was good for lactation.

So, in order for her sister to recover and ensure her nephews have food, Qin Jiale went to the market early in the morning to buy crucian carp and make soup for her sister.

“Sis, Fang Hong said crucian carp soup is good, so I made crucian carp soup for you today.” Qin Jiale told her sister about today’s meal as soon as she saw her.

“Thank you, Lele, you’ve worked hard.” Qin Xue looked at her not-so-old sister, who seemed to have grown up all at once, taking care of her diet attentively.

“What are you talking about, sister? This is what I should do. Don’t say such things in the future, understand?” Qin Jiale didn’t want her sister to be so polite and distant with her.

“I’m sorry, I’m used to saying this. I’ll pay attention in the future.” Qin Xue was really used to it, without realizing any difference, but people of her era wouldn’t think that way.

They might feel too polite and not warm enough, but it’s very common in modern times for people in a community not to know each other, let alone know everyone on the same floor of a building.

However, Qin Xue grew up in that era, so her actions and habits naturally developed based on that time’s style and customs.

As they say, the environment shapes a person, what kind of environment one lives in can be seen in one’s daily life.

Especially when it comes to upbringing, Qin Xue remembered once encountering a mother and son on the bus. Although the two weren’t dressed very well and were despised by others on the bus, the child did not show any reaction, just holding his mother’s hand and sitting quietly.

Later, at a stop, a mother and daughter came on, both of them dressed well and fashionable.

Since there were no extra seats on the bus at the time, the girl complained about how annoying it was that there were no available seats.

The poor-dressed child then stood up and offered his seat, but instead of gratitude, he received disdain from the well-dressed girl.

Qin Xue remembered it like this: “Who asked you to give up your seat? You’re dressed so shabbily and ragged, who knows if you have any diseases or if you’ll spread infection?” As soon as the well-dressed girl spoke, her poor upbringing was exposed.

But the mother of the poorly-dressed child just shook her head, smiled, patted his head, and gave him a thumbs-up to avoid further unfair treatment. Before the child had a chance to speak, she said, “Kid, you did very well. You just did what you thought was right, and that’s great. I’m proud of you.”

Then the child looked at his mother and smiled sweetly with a very confident face.

And then the people on the bus stared at the well-dressed mother and daughter, making them too embarrassed to continue riding and got off early in shame.

Although it was a small incident, it reflected how important a person’s family upbringing is.

Although the mother and son were not as well off as the other pair, they had decent manners, were willing to help others, and did not argue or fight when insulted.

It’s not that they were afraid, but rather they didn’t want to bother. After all, if a dog bites you, are you going to bite the dog back?

From this incident, Qin Xue deeply understood a principle: it is kindness if someone helps you, but it’s also their duty if they don’t.

That is, don’t squander other people’s kindness towards you. Once it’s gone, it’s gone for good.

This saying also applies to friendships, as some people take advantage of your kindness to demand or hurt you. But no one is a fool who willingly helps you time after time, only to be used by you, right?

So, whether it’s friendship, kinship, or love, cherish the person who is good to you. Don’t trample on their feelings without care.
