Chapter 237 Fan - The Sickly Young Girl Eating Watermelons in the Courtyard
Lin Qing deliberately slowed down the pace of washing clothes, just to know what Su Shengnan would choose.
That’s a good question!
Aunt Gu seemed to have noticed that Su Shengnan had softened, so she stepped up her persuasion, "Don't worry, we are honest people and will never cheat you."
Lin Qing wanted to laugh for some reason, but didn't want to make any noise and disturb them, so he held it in. His face was distorted for some reason because he wanted to laugh but didn't want to suppress it.
Thanks to the wall in front of her, no one saw Lin Qing's distorted appearance.
She really couldn't bear it any longer.
Just think that Aunt Gu still dares to call herself an honest person, it really makes me laugh to death!
Thinking back to the first day they moved in, Aunt Gu came to her house and acted like a scoundrel, wanting to eat meat. So she still said she was an honest person?
She was really looking forward to seeing Su Shengnan's expression after being tricked by Aunt Gu!
"Then you guys..." Su Shengnan said tentatively.
"Don't worry, we are definitely not such a black-hearted family. So we will charge you 1 cent for a day's meal, and 3 yuan a month." Aunt Gu felt that what she said was quite reasonable.
Su Shengnan looked unhappy.
"Why? A dime is not expensive! At least we will make sure you have enough for every meal. At least we won't just give you two pieces of dough to send you away."
Lin Qing bit her lip lightly to hold back her laughter. Very good, now she was sure that Aunt Gu had indeed heard their conversation just now, otherwise she wouldn't have been able to describe the two of them so accurately.
Su Shengnan still didn't say anything. Aunt Gu thought she thought it was too expensive, and said, "Why don't you bring your own rations? I'll cook for you as much as you bring." Anyway, she couldn't watch them while they were cooking, so how could she tell if there was more or less?
Su Shengnan is wondering which one is more cost-effective?
But she has already spent ten dollars on rent. If meals are still so expensive, then she will have to spend eight dollars a month. Her salary is only more than 20 dollars, and one-third of it will be spent in one go. She is inexplicably unwilling.
Su Shengnan was unwilling to spend so much money: "How can it be so expensive? You don't feed me fine food every day. And you want ten cents a day? What good are you thinking?" Did he really think she was stupid?
Lin Qing really wanted to nod. Wasn’t Aunt Gu just treating people as fools?
"If you want to eat fine grains every day, that's fine too. You can prepare your own food and we'll make it for you. Just give us a dollar a month as our hard-earned money, hehe!" A shrewd gleam appeared in Aunt Gu's eyes.
Lin Qing had to admit that Aunt Gu's plan was very successful.
Just when she thought the matter was going to end badly, Su Shengnan actually thought it was good.
"Yeah, okay, that's it."
"Okay, okay! Just leave your rations to our family. We will never believe anyone with a bad heart and withhold your rations." Aunt Gu slapped her drooping chest.
Su Shengnan looked her up and down and felt that she had finally met an honest person.
"Okay, that's settled then."
Aunt Jiang was still sitting quietly in the house, waiting for Su Shengnan to come back and compromise!
Who would have known that in just a short while, her corner would be pried open.
"Comrade Su, have you eaten? If not, come to my house for a meal first. You don't have to give too much. Just give me ten cents, no, five cents, five cents will be enough. Hehe, do you think that's okay?" Aunt Gu said, rubbing her hands.
Su Shengnan raised her chin proudly, "Okay!"
"Hey, hey! All right! Come on, I'll take you to eat."
Su Shengnan followed Aunt Gu with her chin raised with a proud look on her face.
Lin Qing quickened his movements and quickly finished washing the clothes, then went back carrying the basin.
I burst into laughter as soon as I stepped into the room.
She didn't know what to say about Su Shengnan. She was not smart, but she was not stupid. However, she was quite happy to see Su Shengnan being fooled.
After Su Shengnan steps into Aunt Gu's house today, Aunt Jiang will definitely dislike her even more. Who knows if a big war will break out?
No, she has to hurry up so that she can catch up if there is really any excitement later.
After Lin Qing hung up the clothes in the kitchen, she locked the door and returned to the bedroom.
Sitting on the recliner, he planned to cool down. The weather was too hot these days. It would be a little cooler at night, but only a little. Lin Qing picked up the fan and fanned himself.
Oh! She missed Cen Xi. When she was with Cen Xi, whenever she felt hot, Cen Xi would help her fan herself. It was really tiring to fan herself!
She heard that there seemed to be fans for sale in the department store, but the price at this time was not very good, otherwise she really wanted to go to the department store and buy one. However, if she really wanted it, she was a little reluctant to spend money to buy it because it was too expensive.
Although she had a lot of money in her hands, which was all given to her by Cen Xi after they got married, Cen Xi's salary and her own salary, except for some pension money given to both sides' parents every month, the rest was saved in her hands, which was quite a lot.
But it still hurts to spend a few hundred dollars. It's really a lot! If she really spends it, she will feel heartbroken just thinking about it.
Hehe! Lin Qing suddenly realized that he was quite miserly.
Sure enough, just as Lin Qing expected, another quarrel broke out after Su Shengnan returned to the Jiang family.
"Humph! I've already found someone to take care of my breakfast and dinner. You black-hearted people still want to take advantage of me? Just give up!"
Aunt Jiang was also stunned, and asked, "Who? Who are you talking about?"
"It's right opposite your house!" Su Shengnan said proudly.
Aunt Jiang looked across. Those on the opposite side were her mortal enemies, people she hated. How dare Su Shengnan go to face them?
"Which bitch are you talking about? Is it the bitch from Aunt Su?" Aunt Jiang still remembered that Su Shengnan and Aunt Su were somewhat related, so if Su Shengnan was looking for someone, she would probably be the one.
Su Shengnan was about to answer, but before she could say anything, Aunt Jiang rushed out the door and headed straight for the Su family.
Lin Qing was lying on the recliner and saw this scene clearly. Here it comes, Aunt Jiang is looking for someone to settle the score.
Huh? Why is it the Su family? Did she find the wrong person? Did she remember it wrong?
Lin Qing leaned his head towards the window, with his chin resting on the windowsill. His entire face was exposed outside the window, and he looked quite terrified.
“Ouch!”
After a while, screams were heard.
"Hiss——" Aunt Su screamed so miserably!
Could it be that Aunt Gu didn't figure out who was the one who cut in?
That’s really…wonderful!
I like the sick little girl. The courtyard eats melons every day.
