Chapter 491: Childish - The Sickly Young Girl Eating Watermelons in the Courtyard

As soon as Lin Qing reached the gate of the courtyard, he saw Jiang Li diligently serving water to Gu Hang. Yes, Jiang Li was waiting at the door with a basin of water, lowering her head and waiting for Gu Hang to wash his hands.

Lin Qing paused for a moment, but soon returned to normal. He retracted his gaze and shook his head, while at the same time, he continued walking towards the house.

She couldn't help but sigh in her heart that Jiang Li really seemed to be a two-faced person, if she hadn't seen it wrong before.

But it is also possible that she saw it wrong this afternoon. After all, the angle, well... it's hard to say.

You know, apart from the fact that Jiang Li transferred the work to her sister-in-law, which was criticized before, she did very well in other aspects and can be called a model.

Even now, many people compare her with Lin Shu. Before Lin Shu became pregnant, she might have sometimes taken care of Jiang Yang's two children, but after she became pregnant, she completely stopped caring about them.

Unlike Jiang Li, who does everything for her children herself and truly raises and loves her children as if they were her own, even Aunt Gu sometimes favors boys over girls, but she treats the little girl very well.

Many people praised her, saying that she made Aunt Gu look very proud, especially when compared with Lin Shu. Aunt Gu also won over Aunt Jiang in another way, and she also had a better look on Jiang Li.

If Lin Qing were to say, she probably wouldn't be able to do this.

Forget it, I don’t want to think about it anymore. I should hurry home to see if her parents have reconciled!

As soon as Lin Qing entered the kitchen, he saw only Cen Xi there. "Where are my parents?"

Cen Xi pointed to the next door, and Lin Qing suddenly realized that some things were indeed inappropriate to say in front of the two teenagers.

However, Lin Qing was a little curious and couldn't control his steps and wanted to go outside.

Unexpectedly, Cen Xi grabbed her and said, "Qingqing, Dad told you to stay here."

Lin Qing...

She pouted a little dissatisfied.

Cen Xi still held on to him.

"Okay, okay, I won't go." Lin Qingjian promised when he couldn't get away.

Cen Xi looked at her intently twice, and only let go of her hand after making sure that she really didn't want to go.

In fact, he didn't want to make his wife unhappy, but his father-in-law had given the order, so he couldn't just ignore it!

Since she couldn't go, Lin Qing planned to tell him about the embarrassing thing she had just seen about her father. "Hehe, you would never have thought that when I went to see our father just now, he was like a butterfly, showing off the chessboard that our mother bought for him to other old men, and he didn't play chess seriously." Lin Qing moved closer to him and whispered, "I saw that the chessboard was still in its packaging."

After listening to this, Cen Xi imagined the scene in his mind and suddenly coughed twice. Later, he felt that the scene looked a little familiar.

Cen Xi suddenly remembered the sweater and scarf that Lin Qing had knitted for him when winter came. It seemed, as if, he had experienced something similar.

"What's wrong with you? Do you think it's really funny?" Lin Qing laughed as he spoke.

Cen Xi didn't know whether to laugh or not, and pushed his glasses helplessly, "My father might like the gift my mother bought too much!"

"I know!" Lin Qing gave Cen Xi a blank look. How could she not know such a simple thing? She just thought her father was a little childish.

Cen Xi glanced at her and asked tentatively, "If mother knew, she would be very happy, right?"

Lin Qing thought about it, and put himself in the situation. He shuddered for a moment, and touched his arm. Oh my god! I can’t think about it. It’s too social!

Lin Qing glanced at Cen Xi. He looked guilty. Could it be that he had done something similar before?

Cen Xi was indeed a little unsure of her thoughts, "What...what's wrong?"

Lin Qing originally wanted to ask, but she thought it was good not to know, because if she didn’t know, she wouldn’t have to suffer social death.

"No...nothing. You should be happy!"

Cen Xi felt relieved instantly. He felt that she probably had the same idea as his mother-in-law, and instantly forgot about what he had done in the past.

When Mother Lin and Father Lin walked into the kitchen again, Mother Lin's smile never faded, and Father Lin's face was less anxious. It seemed that the two of them should have talked things out and reconciled.

"Hehe! Mom, you're not angry anymore?"

"When did I get angry?" Lin's mother said hypocritically.

Father Lin also echoed, "Your mother and I are very good friends. When has she ever been angry?"

Lin Qing gave him a direct look: Do you think I believe it?

Father Lin looked back directly, believe it or not!

Cen Xi pursed his lips, trying very hard not to laugh.

"Is the food ready?" Lin's mother quickly changed the subject.

"Okay, okay. It's ready to be served." Cen Xi looked at his watch and said as he turned around.

"Hurry up, serve your rice and eat."

"Oh! Okay!" Lin Qing quickly took the bowl and chopsticks and started serving the rice.

Father Lin set the table, Mother Lin placed the stools, and everyone in the family did their job. Soon the dishes were served, and the family of four sat down at the square table.

"Wow! It smells so good!"

"Eat quickly!" Father Lin picked up a piece of food with chopsticks and announced that the meal was about to begin.

…

Fu Huihui's news was indeed true, and Section Chief Li announced the news quickly.

But you were all excited and asked questions at once.

"Chief, Chief. What are the criteria for selecting people?"

"Yes, yes! How many people are going?"

"Where are you going to study?"

Someone also asked the question that everyone wanted to know, "Is it true that after returning from further studies, I will be selected as a deputy section chief?"

Section Chief Li raised his hands. "Quiet, quiet! One by one, one by one."

"First of all, you all know that our department has always spoken based on strength. Therefore, we also select people based on their strength." As soon as Section Chief Li finished speaking, someone refuted.

"Chief, this kind of training should be given to the elderly first! How can we let a young person who has only worked for a few years go?"

Lin Qing turned his head and looked at Liu Guiyun who was speaking. Yes, the first person who stood up to refute was Liu Guiyun.

This also made Lin Qing more certain that Liu Guiyun's previous changes were due to this opportunity for further study.

Others also looked at her, with a bit of surprise and understanding in their eyes.

Tang Xihua seemed to have figured out why Liu Guiyun had changed before.

Section Chief Li looked at Liu Guiyun steadily.

Liu Guiyun felt a little flustered when being looked at, but she still said with her neck stiff, "Am I wrong? This kind of training opportunity should be given to the seniors in the department!"

Others didn't say anything. I don't know whether they agreed or disagreed.

Section Chief Li looked at the others with a gloomy look in his eyes. "What about you? What do you think?"

We have worked together for such a long time, and we all understand Liu Guiyun's intention to some extent. Doesn't he just want to exclude Lin Qing, who has just been here for two years and is quite capable?

We are not stupid, we all know it clearly!
