Chapter 38 Heart to Heart - The Sickly Young Girl's Daily Life of Eating Watermelons in the Courtyard
After Lin Qing came out of Lin Shu's room, she went to find her mother. It happened that her mother was free now, so the kitchen work was handed over to Zhang Mei and Lin Shu's aunt, who was also Zhang Mei's sister-in-law.
When Lin Qing just came out of the room, she was thinking that if her mother wanted to work, she would help her and then talk to her mother after she was done. Now this situation is perfect!
Lin Qing came out and took Lin's mother back to Lin's father and mother's room.
This scene was of course seen by everyone in the living room. Father Lin thought that his daughter was really nice. She knew her mother was in a bad mood and went out of her way to talk to her and ease her mood.
Uncle Li and Aunt Li didn't know what happened two days ago, so they didn't think it was strange for Lin Qing to pull her mother back to the room. After all, as a daughter who was married, it was normal for her to want to talk to her mother when she just came back.
The moment Lin Feng saw his sister pulling his old mother back to the room, his eyes dimmed. It seemed that his sister already knew, and he couldn't help but smile bitterly.
Cen Xi smiled faintly from beginning to end.
"Mom!" Lin Qing took her mother to sit down beside the bed.
"Hey! Nannan, do you have something to tell me?"
"Mom, I heard from Lin Wu that you asked my eldest brother and his family to move out after Lin Shu got married, is that right?"
When Lin's mother heard that her own Guaiguai wanted to talk about this matter, she thought that she wanted to persuade them, and the smile on her face faded little by little.
"Yes, your father and I have decided."
"Why is it so sudden?" Lin Qing wanted to know what exactly happened.
Mother Lin looked a little surprised.
Lin Qing saw her expression and knew that she must have been wrong. "Haha! Mom, you don't think I want to speak for them, do you?"
"Haha! I thought so just now, but I don't think so now!" Lin's mother laughed.
"Mom, what are you thinking? I won't speak for my elder brother and his friends! You and Dad must have asked them to move out because they offended you. They deserve this."
"Yeah." The smile returned to Lin's mother's face!
"Besides, it's time for you and dad to take good care of yourself in your old age. We, your children, have grown up, and it's time for you to enjoy your retirement!"
"Yes! It's time for your father and I to enjoy a peaceful life!" Lin's mother also agreed.
"Mom, you haven't told me why yet?"
"Alas~ A few days ago, the day before Lin Shu's boyfriend proposed, your sister-in-law complained that I didn't help her and didn't know how to prepare dowry for Lin Shu when she got married. I was out at the time, and when I came back I heard them talking behind my back, and I didn't want to endure it anymore." Lin's mother's tone was very flat.
"Mom!" Lin Qing felt a little sorry for her mother. Now she could say these words so calmly. It seemed that she had secretly digested a lot of things in the past few days. It was conceivable that she had not been feeling well these days.
Mother Lin patted Lin Qing's hand, motioning her not to worry, and continued: "Actually, I am not very sad about your sister-in-law's thoughts. After all, her thoughts have been shown on her face over the years. But what makes me most sad is that your eldest brother actually vaguely agrees with your sister-in-law's ideas. When I came back, I happened to see a resentful expression on your eldest brother's face. I didn't expect that your eldest brother actually resented us as parents so deeply!" Mother Lin couldn't help but smile bitterly as she spoke!
Lin Qing also got angry after hearing this, "Brother, what does this mean? How dare she blame you? You raised him up and married him off. Even though you gave birth to me, you didn't forget to take care of his two children. How could she have the nerve to blame you?"
Seeing how angry Lin Qing was, Lin's mother was not so angry herself, and she persuaded her instead: "Nannan! Don't be angry! I figured it out at that time. Your eldest brother seems to be on the same page with your eldest sister-in-law. From now on, your father and I will not count on them to support us in our old age, so let them move out. It's actually pretty good for your father and I to live on our own. At least we don't have to see Zhang Mei, who is so annoying, anymore."
"Mom, don't worry. If your elder brother doesn't take care of you in your old age, I will!" Lin Qing patted her chest and promised. She had confidence in Cen Xi and he would agree to this.
"Okay! When your father and I are too old to move, you will take care of us!"
"Yeah." Lin Qing nodded.
"But we don't need it now. Your father and I have your father's pension, which is enough for the two of us to live on."
"Okay! Then I'll come back to see you from time to time with Cen Xi, okay? It's pretty boring for me to stay at home anyway!"
"Okay!" Of course Lin's mother agreed!
"We can go see you too!" Lin's mother thought it was okay for them to go see her.
"Okay! I knew that my parents love me the most!" Lin Qing began to hug her mother and act coquettishly.
"Cen Xi took me to the hospital for a check-up before. The doctor said that I'm in good health now, but a little weak, so I need to replenish my body first. He also prescribed some medicine for me. Maybe when I'm better, I can give birth to some grandchildren for you to raise! You and Dad must take good care of your bodies! I'm still waiting for you to take care of my children!" Lin Qing was also afraid that Lin's mother would be devastated, so he said this thing that he hadn't said before!
"Good! I was right, Xiao Cen, you are fine. Zhixiao will take you to the hospital for a physical examination. Alas, if our family conditions were not poor, your health would not always be like this." Lin's father and mother had taken Lin Qing to various hospitals for examinations before. They knew that in order to completely restore her health, she needed ginseng. Unfortunately, their family fortune had been used up because of her medical treatment, and ginseng was hard to come by, so they could only drag it on and there was no way for her to recover.
"Mom, how can you say that? If it weren't for you and Dad, I would have died long ago!" Lin Qing was very grateful to her parents. Just as she said, if it weren't for them, she would have died long ago!
"You are our daughter, and it is our duty to raise you!"
"Then please don't blame yourself. You and Dad have given me the best. I am very happy to have you and Dad as my parents."
"Yeah." Lin's mother's eyes were a little moist because of what Lin Qing said.
"Mom, don't cry, I want to tell you something interesting!" Lin Qing saw that her mother's eyes were red, so she quickly changed the subject.
"What's interesting?"
"Ahem, let me tell you, Jiang Yang, that's Lin Shu's boyfriend, he also lives in the same compound where Cen Xi and I live."
"What did you say?" Lin's mother even wondered if there was something wrong with her ears.
"You heard it right, Lin Shu and I married into the same compound." Lin Qing recounted it again.
"What's going on?" Lin's mother's attention was immediately diverted.
