Chapter 8: The Big Courtyard - The Sickly Young Girl's Daily Life of Eating Watermelons in the Courtyard

"Which compound is it?" Aunt Li and Mother Lin, who were walking in front, suddenly asked.

"It's number 4." Lin's mother had asked her son-in-law a long time ago, so it's impossible for him to forget.

“We’re here. We’re here.”

Mother Lin and Aunt Li led the way in front, and a large group of people followed behind them and walked into the large courtyard.

At this moment, the aunt and the young wife who were not working in the compound were sitting together chatting. They were talking about the Cen Xi couple who were about to move in.

As soon as their group entered the hospital, they attracted their attention.

Aunt Li, the head of the management department, looked at the group of people who came in and hurried forward, "Who are you?"

Seeing that Aunt Li looked familiar, Lin's mother introduced her, "I am Xiao Cen's mother-in-law."

"Oh, so you are Engineer Cen's mother-in-law! Are Engineer Cen and his family moving in today?" As the director of the hospital, Aunt Li knew who was going to move in a long time ago.

A total of two young couples moved in this time, one is Cen Xi and his wife, and the other is Xiao Yu and his wife. They moved in yesterday.

They were just wondering when Mr. Cen and his wife would move in, but they didn't expect that the devil would appear when they mentioned him.

"Yes, they are having a simple party today, so we are here to help with the luggage."

"Oh! Hello, hello, I'm the headmistress of this compound. You can just call me Aunt Li."

"Okay! Then Aunt Li, please wait a moment, we will move the luggage in first."

"It's okay, it's okay, you guys go ahead and do your work first." Aunt Li was not a blind person. The other person was busy, so how could he have the time to greet her?

Aunt Li returned to the place where they had just chatted, and couldn't help muttering in her heart, this Cen Gong has quite a lot of relatives from his wife's family! But she knew that the newly assigned Cen Gong's hometown was not here, and the people who came today could only be relatives from his wife's family.

After a while, she saw Cen Xi and his wife. They were truly beauties she had never seen before! No wonder Engineer Cen had not been interested in any of the many candidates the factory had introduced to him before. It turned out that they were not pretty enough!

Aunt Jiang was the person who was most unhappy about Cen Xi and his family moving in. She thought that if Cen Xi hadn't moved in without his permission, at least his second son could have occupied one of the two rooms in the main house, right?

Now, there is none. Really, there are so many people in her family, why didn’t the factory mention going to their house?

So Aunt Jiang never had a good face towards Lin's mother and her group of people.

Lin's mother simply turned a blind eye. Since you didn't come near her, she didn't know you, so why would she care who you were!

Yes, Lin's mother didn't know Jiang's mother at all. Jiang Yang and Lin Shu had just met for a blind date, but they were not engaged yet. The parents of both sides had never met each other, so the two pairs of people who were about to become relatives didn't know each other at all.

Mother Lin was still worried that the two young people would not be able to clean their rooms, so how could they have the time to worry about their neighbors?

Aunt Su spoke softly: "I thought Mr. Cen's wife was already very old, but she looks like she has just reached adulthood!" This was already an exaggeration.

Lin Qing's little face is absolutely stunning, but still a little childish. To say that she is an adult is already a compliment.

The reason why Aunt Su said this was mainly because she saw the face of Lin's mother. Lin's mother is almost 60 years old, and her face must be older. She looks a generation older than them.

Of course this is true. If Jiang Yang and Lin Shu got married, wouldn't they be a generation older than them?

Aunt Sui was more objective, "Maybe the daughter-in-law is an old woman!"

Judging from the situation, she may indeed be an old woman.

The moment Aunt Gu opened her mouth, people were unhappy. "What's the point of being pretty? With her skinny body, I don't think she can even give birth to a son."

The other young wives didn't say anything, and now it was the mothers' turn to dominate.

Of course they were talking now, but the Lin family members were still there, so they didn't dare speak too loudly.

After Cen Xi and Lin Qing entered the house, they found that Yagen didn't want their help and were pushed out by Lin's mother soon after.

"You two should go and give some wedding candy to those people in the yard!"

"Okay!" Cen Xi agreed very happily.

Lin Qing did not resist, because he knew that he would have to take this step sooner or later. There were so many families living in their compound that they would have to deal with each other.

"Let's go!" Cen Xi held Lin Qing with one hand and a bag of candy in the other.

After he got the house two days ago, he asked someone to do some general repairs and painting. It seems that the weather is hot now, so the work was done quickly. So when Lin's mother and her friends came today, they actually just cleaned their room and put things in order.

"Auntie Li." Cen Xi called Auntie Li first. After all, this was the management office of their compound, and it would be better to have her introduce things.

"Hey! Mr. Cen brought his wife to hand out wedding candies!"

"Yes, we also want you to help introduce it to us!" Cen Xi said as he grabbed a handful of candy and gave it to Aunt Li.

Aunt Li's chubby face immediately lit up with a smile and she put all the candies in her pocket.

"Okay, I'll introduce it to you."

"Let's start with the introduction from the entrance! As you enter, you'll see Aunt Jiang and her family living in the west wing." Aunt Li said, pointing at Aunt Jiang.

"Hello, Aunt Jiang." Cen Xi and Lin Qing said at the same time, and Cen Xi also grabbed a handful of candy and handed it over.

Aunt Jiang took the candy without hesitation, but her face was still a little gloomy.

Although Cen Xi and Lin Qing didn't understand why, they didn't want to bother to please someone, so they just finished the introduction and didn't want to say anything else. They just looked at Aunt Li and waited for him to introduce the next person.

Aunt Li spat at Aunt Jiang in her heart, what a shameless old woman, she was so quick to ask for candy, but didn't even say a word when she should have spoken.

She just wanted to introduce the members of the Jiang family, but now she doesn't want to say it anymore.

Aunt Li laughed and started to introduce the next one, "There are two families living in the east wing over here. The two rooms near the door belong to Aunt Gu and her family." Every time Aunt Li introduced a family, she would point to Aunt Gu, "Aunt Gu's family has five people, including Aunt Gu, her son and daughter-in-law, and two grandchildren."

"Hello, Aunt Gu!" Cen Xi also grabbed a handful of candy and gave it to Aunt Gu.

"Hello!" Although Aunt Gu didn't like Lin Qing very much, she still gave him face and greeted him out loud, which was better than Aunt Jiang.

Aunt Jiang is still angry. She is angry that Aunt Li did not introduce her family's situation just now. Unfortunately, no one pays attention to her now.

"Then Aunt Gu's family is Aunt Su's family. Aunt Su's family has four people, she, her daughter-in-law and two grandsons."

"Oh! Hello, Aunt Su." Cen Xi repeated the action just now.

"Hello! You can come to me if you have any problems in the future!" Of course, it is not certain whether I can help or not.

Aunt Su is much better than the previous two aunts. She speaks softly and never makes people feel ignored.

Lin Qing was thinking that there was finally someone in this courtyard who was easy to get along with.

"Finally, there are two rooms next to yours in the front yard. They are occupied by Zhou's father and son. However, they are both at work today and not at home. You can wait until they get off work in the evening to give them the wedding candy."

"Okay!" Cen Xi and Lin Qing breathed a sigh of relief.

Then Aunt Li took them to the backyard.

"The main house in the backyard is my home, and the west wing is Aunt Sui's home. Aunt Sui is the one standing next to me with a smile just now. Oh, she's here."

It was only after Aunt Sui saw them leave that she remembered that she lived in the backyard after being reminded by Aunt Su and the others!

"Hello, Aunt Sui, hello!"

"Oh, I almost forgot about it just now." Aunt Sui took the candy from Cen Xi's hand and said with a smile.

"Let me tell you something. I have two boys in my family. Both of them are married, but neither of them has any children yet."

"Oh!" Cen Xi and Lin Qing responded stupidly.

"Okay, okay, let's move on to the east wing. The two houses near my house are where the Zhangs and their two daughters live. Liu Li should be resting at home." After saying this, Aunt Li called out to the Zhang family's front door, "Is little Liu here?"

"Here they come!" Liu Li came out of the house and saw Aunt Li and Aunt Sui with two young people she didn't know.

"You can just call her Sister Zhang."

"Xiao Liu, this is our new engineer Cen and his wife."

"Hello, Mrs. Zhang." Lin Qing grabbed a handful of candy and handed it over. Before, it was always Cen Xi who came, but this Mrs. Zhang was quite young, so it was more appropriate for her to come.

"Hello, hello." Liu Li knew that their hospital would have new students, but she didn't expect them to come at this time.

"Okay, this is the last house, next to your sister-in-law Zhang. It's the young couple from the Yu family who came yesterday, Yu Liang and Zhang Yuanyuan. They both have to go to work today. You can give them the wedding candy after they get off work!"

"Okay, thank you Aunt Li for introducing us." Between Cen Xi and Lin Qing, Cen Xi was the one who spoke more actively, while Lin Qing was still a little reserved.

"Hey, what's the big deal? This is what I'm supposed to do."

Aunt Li thought that they would have to go back and clean up, so she let them go first. "You guys go back first. Now that we have finished the introduction, go back and clean up. We will get to know each other later."

"Well, thank you, Mom!"

Cen Xi and Lin Qing have also completed an important step.
