Chapter 176: Estrangement - The Sickly Young Girl's Daily Life of Eating Watermelons in the Courtyard

Su Shengnan didn't understand why Lin Qing was like this. Logically, she knew Lin Qing before, and now she said she knew her niece Lin Shu. As the elder, shouldn't she take the initiative to greet her?

After all, you are the elder!

Lin Shu felt that Lin Qing was so heartless. She was her niece after all. She had taken the initiative to introduce people to Lin Qing, so how could he lose face like this?

Su Shengnan came to her senses first, took a deep breath, and said to Lin Shu, who was slower than her, "What a coincidence! I didn't expect that Comrade Lin Qing actually lives in the same compound as you, Lin Shu! By the way, did you just call Lin Qing "Auntie"? "

Although Lin Shu felt it was a bit strange, she thought that Su Shengnan's target was the deputy director of the Revolutionary Committee, who was her husband's boss in her previous life and a person many people wanted to curry favor with. Now that the opportunity was in her hands, she certainly couldn't let it go.

Moreover, she could see that Su Shengnan seemed to care about Lin Qing a little, and maybe she could get some benefits from Lin Qing!

She smiled and said softly, "Yes! Lin Qing is my aunt!"

"Ah! What a coincidence! You and your niece are actually marrying into the same compound!"

"Yes! At first, we didn't think it would be such a coincidence! It was only after I got married that I realized that my younger aunt married into the same courtyard!"

Su Shengnan raised her eyebrows, "How could this be? Didn't your aunt ever meet your partner once before she brought you in?"

"You may not know that my aunt has been weak since she was a child. When she first got married, she didn't have to go to work. She slept until noon every day, while Brother Yang had already gone to work.

After get off work in the afternoon, my uncle-in-law Mr. Cen took care of the housework by himself, cooking dinner and washing clothes. My aunt didn't do any of the housework. She just stayed in the room waiting for dinner. So Brother Yang just missed her when he got home from get off work, so they never met! "Lin Shu said this not to show off, but to imply that Lin Qing was a lazy person who only liked to eat.

However, these words were somewhat harsh to Su Shengnan. She pinched her hands again and again, wondering why Lin Qingming was so good?

And when Cen Xi saw her before, didn’t he stare at her for a long time?

Why didn't she show any reaction when she ran into him again?

"Shengnan, what are you thinking about?" Lin Shu pushed Su Shengnan, who was in a daze for some reason.

"Um?"

"What were you thinking about?"

Su Shengnan smiled to ease the embarrassment, "No, I just didn't expect that Mr. Cen, a grown man, would take the initiative to do housework."

Lin Shu gritted his teeth. Why didn't Su Shengnan criticize Lin Qingla?

Sure enough, there is something fishy about the relationship between Su Shengnan and Lin Qing!

"By the way, Shengnan, are you acquainted with my aunt?"

"Ah? Yes! I happened to meet your aunt on the street once before, and I felt that we had a special affinity, so I wanted to become friends with her, but..." As Su Shengnan was speaking, the corners of her mouth suddenly drooped slightly, and her tone gradually became lost.

Lin Shu felt as if he had caught Lin Qing's handle, and asked quickly: "But what?"

Su Shengnan regarded Lin Shu as a bridge to break the ice between her and Lin Qing. She had failed in previous attempts. She still didn't understand why Lin Qing was so defensive against her. She had clearly acted so innocent, so why was he still like this?

In short, both of them have ulterior motives.

"But I feel that Comrade Lin Qing doesn't like me very much!" Su Shengnan said, lowering her head in disappointment, and the light in her eyes disappeared.

Lin Shu was speechless for a moment and rolled his eyes. If the other person doesn't like you, why do you keep moving forward?

But Lin Shu couldn't say it so bluntly. Moreover, Lin Shu felt that this might be a key step to strengthen their relationship, so she comforted him in a gentle voice: "My aunt might..."

Lin Shu suddenly sighed, "Ah~ To tell you the truth, my aunt doesn't have a very good personality. In the past, few of our classmates were willing to associate with her, so she is a bit withdrawn!"

"Ah?" Su Shengnan seemed to suddenly understand.

"So, the reason you two can't get along is not your fault, but my aunt's... Alas~"

…

Cen Xi looked outside through the window, "Will Su Shengnan reveal something about you when she comes into contact with Lin Shu?"

Lin Qing himself didn't care. "It's okay. I don't have anything to hide. But I think if Su Shengnan wants to use Lin Shu to get close to me, it's a bad move."

"Hmm? Why do you say that?" Cen Xi pulled Lin Qing and let her sit on his lap.

"Ah!" Lin Qing exclaimed softly, "What are you doing?" Lin Qing complained softly.

But the slightly red face showed that the owner was angry and embarrassed.

"I just want to hug you!" Cen Xi tightened his arms and buried his face in Lin Qing's neck.

Lin Qing raised his lips slightly and said hypocritically: "Don't do this! It's broad daylight, what if someone sees us?"

"What? Don't you have confidence in the excellent location you chose for watching the show? Besides, our windows are not all open. If you want to see us, you have to come in!"

"I..." Lin Qing didn't know how to refute for a moment?

"Okay, let's get back to the topic. Why did you say that?"

Lin Qing did not resist in the end, but quietly found a more suitable position in his arms and sat steadily. "Lin Shu used to like to alienate classmates who got along well with me, so I think if Su Shengnan goes to find Lin Shu, maybe Lin Shu will hint at my shortcomings in every sentence. She doesn't like me to make friends."

Lin Qing said it lightly, but Cen Xi was truly distressed and hugged her even tighter.

"Has she always treated you like this before?" There was a gleam of ruthlessness in Cen Xi's eyes.

"It's okay! Actually, I'm not very familiar with my former classmates. I'm often sick, and sometimes I don't go to school for less than half of the semester, so my relationship with my classmates is relatively unfamiliar. Moreover, if it weren't for Lin Shu, I might have been harassed frequently. You know, I'm pretty, and some male classmates often come to me." Lin Qing suddenly laughed when she said this. "Actually, I was quite troubled, but Lin Shu hated this the most, so she let the classmates in the class isolate me, including the male comrades. So, thanks to her, I had a very comfortable life in junior high and high school!"

Cen Xi was angry at first, but after Lin Qing finished speaking, he also felt that his niece seemed to have finally done something good!
