Chapter 133: Preaching - The Sickly Young Girl Eating Watermelons in the Courtyard
Lin Qing opened his eyes from the bed in the morning. He tossed and turned for a long time before falling asleep last night. He looked to the side with a somewhat lonely expression.
Alas~ When will Brother Nan be able to come back?
Lin Qing missed Cen Xi very much whenever she was alone. They were not always together in the past, but after not seeing him for a few days, she missed him so much!
When I opened the door, everyone in the front yard was already awake!
Lin Qing stepped out of the room, went to the kitchen to get a wash basin, and planned to fill it with water to wash his face.
However, there were quite a lot of people queuing up to get water in front of her, so she lowered her eyes and waited at the end to get water!
Since Lin Qing appeared, many surprised eyes fell on him. The temperament of the sick beauty was particularly attractive. Fortunately, he was just a glance and did not attract Lin Qing's attention. She had seen such eyes many times. As long as it did not make her particularly uncomfortable, she would ignore it.
"Aunt, why do you wake up so late again? It was okay when you were at home before, but now you have to go to work all day! What if you are late one day?" Lin Shu's high-pitched voice reached Lin Qing's ears.
Lin Qing raised his eyes and looked at Lin Shu who suddenly came up to him. He didn't know why she suddenly went crazy and came up to him. Wasn't she fine before? Why didn't she come up to him if she could? What happened today?
There was a flash of surprise in Lin Qing's eyes.
Seeing that Lin Qing didn't say anything, Lin Shu continued to preach: "Aunt, I'm not saying anything to you, but if you really get up late one day, wouldn't it be embarrassing for your uncle? Your uncle is an engineer in the factory. How could you..." Looking at Lin Qing's clear eyes, Lin Shu gradually stopped talking for some reason!
"Why don't you continue?" Lin Qing spoke softly.
It doesn't sound intimidating at all, but it's somehow chilling!
"I'm not wrong. If you really get up late one day, wouldn't that be embarrassing for your uncle?"
"Oh! Is it late now?" Lin Qing looked around while speaking, "It shouldn't be! Aren't everyone still washing up?"
Lin Qing didn't say anything to defend himself, but he said everything!
Is it so late? Everyone is here!
Lin Shu was choked!
"Xiao Shu, I know you have to get up early every day to prepare breakfast for your parents-in-law, your husband and children, but I am different from you. I only need to be responsible for my own breakfast. I can deal with it casually, but I am afraid you can't."
Lin Qing was smiling all the time.
Lin Shu's sore spot was touched. The contrast between the two was too obvious. One was the head of the household, with no parents-in-law or children to take care of, while the other had everything. One only had to consider himself, while the other had to consider everyone in the family. One could do whatever he wanted, while the other had to be humble and submissive.
Obviously, she had fought hard to get this marriage, but now she was the one who suffered the loss.
Mrs. Jiang had been watching the battle situation at the door of her house. After she saw that Lin Shu had gotten sick at Lin Qing's place, she felt a lot better.
Ever since she learned yesterday that Lin Shu also needed a job, she had felt extremely uncomfortable. She could imagine how arrogant and conceited this second-born girl would be when she got a job in the future.
However, Mrs. Jiang thought again that it was not them who were in charge of the family now, but the two old guys. Even if Lin Shu went to work, his salary still had to be turned over to the public. Mrs. Jiang suddenly felt a little saccharine.
Thinking about it this way, she seemed to have gotten a bit of an advantage. However, she then thought of her mother-in-law who favored boys over girls. No matter how much the salary was, it would not be used by her family. She felt a little disappointed!
The second son's family doesn't seem to be weak and can be bullied. Now that they have a job, they might not be willing to hand over their salary. They might even make trouble. They might even ask for separation one day.
When she thought of this, her eyes lit up. Dividing the family property was what he had always dreamed of. Last time, she made a scene but only received some compensation, and the family property was not divided directly.
It would be better to split the family. She really wants it to split. After the split, he can be the master of the family and will no longer be controlled by others!
In fact, many people were paying attention to Lin Shu and Lin Qing, but no one interrupted them. However, it was obvious from this conversation that although the two were the same age, the niece's feelings were obviously not as strong as the aunt's!
After he easily solved several troublesome aunts in the orphanage, many people have realized that although this new neighbor in their orphanage looks weak, he is very capable.
This was in stark contrast to the conversation with the second daughter-in-law of the Jiang family. Even if she was ridiculed, she still responded softly.
I will not offend others unless they offend me. In fact, Lin Qing feels that she has always made her position very clear. As long as you don't take the initiative to provoke her, she will not meddle in other people's business!
I just wonder if Lin Shu took the wrong medicine today, and he actually spoke so bluntly and mocked her?
"Xiao Shu, is there anything else?" Lin Qing looked at her and smiled.
"It's okay." Lin Shu said with a curl of his lips.
"That's good." Lin Qing turned around and continued to wait in line, but he paused as he stood up straight, turned around and said, "Xiao Shu, there's one more thing I forgot to tell you!"
"What is it?"
"Although we are the same age, I am still your aunt after all. It's better for young people to stay out of the affairs of the elders!" After saying that, she turned around.
Lin Qing almost said bluntly: Is it really necessary for you to meddle in other people’s business?
Lin Shu: “…”
Lin Shu finally realized what a stupid thing he had just done!
No matter what, Lin Qing is her aunt and her elder. It is not the younger generation's turn to discipline the elders!
She had the nerve to lecture Lin Qing just now. If it were someone else, they would have slapped her in the face.
Although at this moment, she didn't feel much better. She felt as if a lot of people were staring at her, and she felt a little embarrassed.
"Yes, aunt, I just overstepped my bounds!" Lin Shu's mouth was full of bitterness.
All the happiness I had in the morning was destroyed at this moment.
Anyway, Lin Qing felt that she was inexplicable. She couldn't help but provoke others when she was fine!
Lin Shu left, but Lin Qing continued to queue as if nothing had happened.
Aunt Jiang had seen all of this. When Lin Shu came back, she whispered, "Are you full? Why did you go and provoke your aunt again?"
Aunt Jiang was still frightened by what happened before! She was so worried that this person would not know what was good for him. What if some of his words irritated the sick beauty and made her faint? What should she do?
"I……"
"What do you mean by 'I'? Listen to me carefully, don't mess with that woman anymore in the future!" Aunt Jiang just wanted to provoke Lin Qing less.
Lin Shu's face was a little distorted. Just when he wanted to say something to refute, Aunt Jiang turned around and left.
