Chapter 174: The Rumble - The Sickly Young Girl's Daily Life of Eating Watermelons in the Courtyard
Finally, it was time to get off work in the afternoon. Lin Qing couldn't wait to pick up her bag and walk out of the office.
"Tsk tsk, they are indeed young, just like newlyweds!"
"Oh, we are young people! Otherwise, old-timers like us wouldn't have the energy to do that!"
"Yeah, my husband! We've only been married for a few years, but the passion is gone!"
The person who complained didn't think there was anything wrong, but the person who listened did hear something amiss, and said hastily, "Tsk, that's not okay! There's something amiss! Could it be that your husband has someone else outside?"
"What are you talking about? How could my husband have someone else outside?"
Seeing her slightly ugly face, the person who spoke was still merciful and quickly apologized: "Yes, yes, yes, it's my fault, I said something wrong."
"Hmph, I'm glad to know!"
Seeing the man's ugly expression, they quickly ended the topic!
Lin Qing, who had already left, had no idea that a quarrel almost broke out in the department after he left.
Lin Qing and Cen Xi first went to the supply and marketing cooperative and bought the things they had agreed on the day before, and then prepared to go back to her parents' home!
"Mom and Dad, Brother Nan and I are back!"
"Mom and Dad!" Cen Xi put the things he bought on the table after entering the room.
Lin's father and mother had sharp eyes and spotted the milk powder bag at a glance. They used to give Lin Qing supplements from time to time, so they were quite familiar with the milk powder bags!
"Hey, why don't you just go home? Why spend so much money?" Although Lin's father and mother complained, they felt warm in their hearts.
Lin Qing went up to them and hugged their arms. "Hey, I bought these to replenish your bodies. You have worked hard over the years! This is a gift from your son-in-law and I to you!"
"Yes, Dad and Mom, you have to take good care of your health! You will have to raise children for Qingqing and me in the future!" Cen Xi also echoed.
Cen Xi accurately grasped the soft spots of Lin's father and mother.
"Okay, okay!" Lin's father and mother smiled, with tears in their eyes.
"Dad, Mom!" There were shouts coming from outside the door!
The warm atmosphere was immediately destroyed by this shout!
Lin Qing felt the voice was familiar, and Lin's mother recognized it immediately.
"Dad, Mom, open the door quickly!" The knocks on the door became more urgent.
Lin's mother said, "It's your eldest brother and his friends."
Lin Qing paused, "Then I'll go open the door!"
"I'll go!" Although Lin's mother didn't know why the couple came back, after all, they hadn't come back for more than a month since they moved out. They must have come back for some purpose this time, so she decided to go and meet them!
After saying this, Mother Lin walked around Lin Qing and went to the door. Lin Qing and Father Lin followed her out, and Cen Xi followed closely behind.
"They're here!" When Lin's mother opened the door, she saw Brother Lin and his wife standing at the door with empty hands.
"Dad, Mom!" Brother Lin licked his face and called out.
"Why are you back?"
Zhang Mei was unhappy when she heard this, "If my younger sister can come back, why can't we come back?"
"Are you back to see us?" Lin's mother sneered.
"Of course." Zhang Mei raised her head and said condescendingly.
"You came back empty-handed?"
"Uh..." Brother Lin and Zhang Mei were instantly embarrassed!
Brother Lin was persuaded to come back by Zhang Mei. He was too embarrassed to return after being kicked out of the house by Lin's father and mother.
But Zhang Mei heard from her former neighbor that Lin Qing went back to her parents' home almost every week.
"Your sister-in-law! I heard she goes back to her parents' home every week!"
"Are you serious?"
"Of course this is true. Let me tell you, you are really stupid! Your parents-in-law separated you from the family, so you really separated yourself from them! You moved out willingly just to make room for your sister-in-law!"
After hearing what she said, Zhang Mei suddenly felt that it made sense. Yes, they moved out, which meant they were making room for her sister-in-law's family!
"I remember that your father-in-law still has his own salary in his hands, and he still has a pension when he gets old. Are you really willing to give it all to your sister-in-law? And the house your parents-in-law live in may be left to your sister-in-law in the future!"
Zhang Mei's face became more and more ugly. When she was kicked out, she felt only shame and anger in her heart, but she couldn't bring herself to ask Lin's father and mother for help later, so they never went back after they moved out!
Now that she heard that her sister-in-law and her husband would go back every week, she immediately felt that she had been taken advantage of, and then began to brainwash Raymond Lam.
I don’t know whether Raymond Lam wanted to take the opportunity to get closer to Mr. and Mrs. Lin, or was smiling to take advantage, but in any case he was coaxed into coming back with Zhang Mei!
"If my sister-in-law can come back, then of course we can come back too!" Zhang Mei said righteously.
"Oh, so the two of you will come back empty-handed and eat for free?" Lin's mother said sarcastically.
Brother Lin was so upset by what he said that he wanted to bury himself in the ground!
"Mom, it's... we forgot!"
"Hmph! Go back to where you came from. You're thinking too much if you want to come to my house and eat for free!" Lin's mother said bluntly.
Lin's mother was very disappointed with her son. They had not been home for over a month, and this time they came back they didn't even ask to buy anything, even a box of pastries would be fine!
"My sister-in-law can come back, so why can't we come back? You are just biased!" Zhang Mei started to make a big fuss.
As soon as Lin's mother saw the neighbors showing up one after another, she immediately knew Zhang Mei's plan, but she would never let Zhang Mei succeed!
"When has my daughter ever come home empty-handed? She's not like you!" Mother Lin was very proud when she said this. Her daughter was a filial daughter.
Zhang Mei didn't expect Lin Qing to go this far, but she still stubbornly retorted: "Who knows if you guys subsidize her privately?"
When Lin's mother heard her talking about subsidies, she immediately laughed, "You are wrong, we don't give her any subsidies, on the contrary, she gives us pension every month!" Lin's mother looked at the neighbors and said proudly, "My daughter has handed over one-third of her salary to me and her father as pension since she started working!"
The smile on Lin's mother's face was so bright that it was obviously not fake, so many neighbors were completely shocked!
I never thought that the daughter of the Lin family could do this. She is more filial than other family's sons!
When a neighbor thought about his son who always had to take money out of his pocket, he was extremely jealous of Lin's father and mother, "Oh, Brother Lin and Sister Lin! Your daughter is so filial! She is much more filial than my brat!"
"Yes! My daughter is so filial!" Mother Lin's eyes were almost dying of laughter!
Father Lin was behind her, listening to the praises from many neighbors, his eyes narrowed into slits as he smiled.
Zhang Mei looked at Lin Qing and Cen Xi in shock. She didn't expect that Lin Qing would actually give her pension money, and it seemed that her husband Cen Xi didn't disagree at all?
