Chapter 493 Visiting Stepfather

Since Sheng Jiu called to ask, he planned to go over and take a look.

Because Sheng Jiu did not follow his mother at first, he and his stepfather Uncle Liang were just familiar strangers.

As for feelings, there definitely isn't much.

Moreover, considering Sheng Jiu's identity as a girl, Uncle Liang also intended to avoid suspicion.

In addition, they don't spend much time together, so the feelings between them are weak, and most of the time, it's just a politeness.

Like some relatives who are related but not close.

Sheng Jiu is actually quite satisfied with this kind of relationship.

After talking to Cen Qing for a few words, Sheng Jiu took his things and went out with Lin Duo.

She went out openly, so naturally she needed to come back before opening time.

Otherwise, what would happen if others knew there were two Sheng Jius?

There were already many people keeping an eye on Sheng Ji, so Sheng Jiu had to act more cautiously.

When Sheng Jiu went over, Uncle Liang was working.

Uncle Liang works as the purchasing manager in a garment factory.

Although he is on sick leave now, some things still require his signature and approval.

Therefore, sick leave cannot be stopped.

Nowadays, with the development of electronic communications, there are so many things that can be done online.

So, it’s inconvenient to work while you’re on vacation at home?

That's impossible!

Upon hearing that Sheng Jiu was coming, Liang Fu put down his work and came over with Cen Qing to greet Sheng Jiu in.

The Sheng family's house is a large flat on the top floor.

After all, there are many people in the family.

Uncle Liang had a child of his own, and Cen Qing later gave birth to a pair of twins, a boy and a girl.

The elders from the Liang family would occasionally come and stay for a while.

So, the place is too small and there is no room for us at home.

The house is large and the living room is also very spacious.

Sheng Jiu brought Lin Duo with her, so she didn't need to carry the things, Lin Duo could carry them up.

Sheng Jiu brought some ingredients from the store and bought two boxes of milk and two boxes of health powder from the supermarket.

Sheng Jiu has never drunk this thing. It feels like protein powder?

The salesperson in the store was very enthusiastic in promoting the product, and the price was not cheap. It would also look nice as a gift, so Sheng Jiu bought two boxes.

Cen Qing went over to take it, and Liang Fu smiled politely: "You're here, what are you bringing? It's not easy for a little girl like you to earn money..."

Everyone was just being polite and no one took it seriously.

However, what needs to be responded to must be said.

Sheng Jiu said a few polite words, but Cen Qing didn't say much.

In her opinion, Sheng Jiu's coming here and bringing a lot of things with him was an honor for her. She felt happy about it and naturally would not say anything annoying.

However, Cen Qing was a little curious about Lin Duo who came with Sheng Jiu.

However, she didn't dare to ask directly in front of her man, fearing that Sheng Jiu would not be able to answer and the situation would become even more awkward.

Liang Fu actually wanted to ask, but he was his stepfather after all, and they didn't spend much time together and had an average relationship with him. He was not sure if asking would make Sheng Jiu unhappy?

So, after some hesitation, Liang Fu did not ask.

Sheng Jiu had no idea of ​​the myriad thoughts running through the two people's minds. She generously introduced Lin Duo: "Lin Duo, our shop assistant."

When Cen Qing and Liang Fu heard that it was the store clerk, they felt relieved.

It’s not that the two of them don’t like Lin Duo.

This person really looks fierce and cold, and doesn't seem like a good person.

The children are old enough to find a partner, but if they find someone, it is obvious that he is not a good person, and the adults will also worry.

But their identities are so embarrassing that they are embarrassed to ask and unable to speak in depth.

Liang Fu worked hard in his early years and did not take good care of his body.

Therefore, gastrointestinal problems are already a chronic disease. I take care of myself when I feel uncomfortable these years, and I go out for some fun when I feel better.

However, being in a position like his, he has to attend quite a few social events on a daily basis.

Various delicious foods and drinks have become a daily routine.

This time I drank so much that I developed gastric bleeding. Normally, I would need to recover for at least a year or two.

Even if you recover, you can't try too hard.

However, Liang Fu probably couldn't listen.

After all, being in such a position, if he really doesn't fight for it, his position will be taken away by someone else.

There are three children to support at home, and Liang Fu cannot retire now, find a leisurely job, and be satisfied with a salary of a thousand yuan.

These things actually have little to do with Sheng Jiu.

She just gave a few polite words of advice, and then everyone talked about other things.

After going around in circles, the topic inevitably turned to Sheng Ji.

Cen Qing actually didn't ask any more questions.

She didn't want Sheng Jiu to think that she, as a mother, suddenly cared about her because of her store and her money.

So, don’t ask too many questions if you can avoid asking too many questions.

However, when she heard that the business was okay, Cen Qing still said, "You can't be too tired. If there are other ways to work in the future, you still have to look for them. The little girl is always in the kitchen, and her skin is damaged by the smoke."

Having said this, seeing Sheng Jiu's indifferent expression, Cen Qing knew that the other party didn't like what she said, so she stopped talking and didn't go into details.

Having been scolded by her ex-sister-in-law a few days ago, Cen Qing now speaks very carefully.

If someone said they would come to the door, Cen Qing might think it was a joke.

However, if it was Lin Juan, Cen Qing would take it very seriously, because the other party would really come to the door!

Liang Fu actually wanted to persuade Sheng Jiu that the little girl didn't need to work so hard.

He is a person with old-fashioned ideas.

Of course, he not only treated Sheng Jiu like this, but also his own daughter.

Because of this, Liang Yanru confronted him.

Liang Fu's words of persuasion were silently taken back when he thought of the hurtful words his daughter had said to him before.

Forget it, young people don’t like to hear them say this or that, they think they are old-fashioned.

However, Liang Fu felt that he was not an antique.

Unfortunately, no one understands!

Cen Qing originally wanted to stay for dinner, but Sheng Jiu said that the store still had to be open, so she had to go back before it opened.

After hearing her say this, even Liang Fu felt embarrassed to stay any longer.

Even if the sales for the day are not good, it should be able to support the store employees. If we close the store for lunch, we will lose a lot of money.

Therefore, Liang Fu and Cen Qing did not stay.

After seeing Sheng Jiu off, Cen Qing felt a little sad.

Liang Fu understood the awkwardness and discomfort in her heart. He raised his hand and gently patted her shoulder, comforting her in a gentle voice: "The child is grown up, and it's good to have her own ideas. Don't think too much. She is still willing to come now, which means that she still has you as her biological mother in her heart."

Cen Qing understood it in her heart, but she couldn't help feeling awkward.

In Lin Juan's words, it probably means that if you don't take care of your children when you are young, and your children are willing to take care of you when you are old, are you still being pretentious?
