Chapter 9 Cleaning up - The sick little girl's daily life of eating melons in the courtyard

"You're back. Have you distributed all the wedding candies?" Mother Lin turned around and asked when she saw the young couple coming back.

"There are still two families who haven't received the money yet. They haven't returned from work yet."

"good!"

Mother Lin recalled the cold face of Mother Jiang when they first entered the yard. "Do the people in your yard get along well with each other?"

"We just met each other when we first arrived, how can we tell?" Lin Qingwei said with a frown.

Mother Lin nodded. That was true, but she still told them about Aunt Jiang. "I guess the aunt in your yard who wears a blue patched shirt is not easy to get along with. You should stay away from her on weekdays."

As soon as Cen Xi and Lin Qing heard it, they knew who the description was about. They looked at each other and thought: This is just a coincidence. They also felt that this person was difficult to get along with.

"Yeah, we got it."

Mother Lin was still a little worried and warned, "There are so many people in this courtyard, so you should observe who you get along with and who you don't get along with. But I think your housekeeper is quite straightforward, so you can get to know her more often, and you can ask her for help if you have any problems."

"Yeah, we got it."

…

Of course Zhang Mei and Lin Shu, mother and daughter, also came along. Before, they had thought about being assigned to a large compound, and they were somewhat proud of it, thinking that the environment of the large compound would definitely not be as good as that of the tube-shaped building!

But when they saw the two spacious main rooms, they felt unhappy again. How could this girl be so lucky?

Such a spacious main house was divided directly into two rooms. The machinery factory was quite generous to this young uncle.

Anyway, the more they looked at each other, the uglier their faces became. What did the machinery factory mean by being so generous to the new girl? If they thought about it carefully, they could guess that the new girl must have a high position in the machinery factory, otherwise she would not have been given two such spacious main rooms without any salary.

"How can this sister-in-law be so lucky? Your father hasn't even got a separate room! If he did, she wouldn't have to live with the two old people. Why would she still be squeezed with them in this small two-bedroom, one-living-room apartment?" Zhang Mei couldn't help muttering.

Lin Shu was also very uncomfortable. She was going to marry into a large compound with her sister-in-law. Although she didn't know what the situation was at the Jiang family, she knew that the whole family lived together and had not yet separated. It was conceivable that the living space for the couple would definitely not be very large. This made her even more jealous of the couple.

Why does my sister-in-law get all the benefits?

The others were quite satisfied with the two rooms. They had not imagined at first that the two main rooms were so spacious that they could accommodate children in the future.

Now one of these two rooms is used as a bedroom. There are bookshelves and a dressing table in the bedroom, as well as a desk and chair. It can be considered a combination of a study and a bedroom.

Cen Xi and Lin Qing planned to place the bookshelf between the bed and the outside as a partition, so that the bedroom could not be seen from the door at a glance, and the desk was also placed outside.

The other room was also divided into an inner and outer room. Half of the inner room was used as a storage room, and Cen Xi separated a corner of the other half into a bathroom. He thought that his wife was in poor health, and it would be best to have an enclosed space to keep the temperature in when taking a bath, so he specially asked someone to build a small compartment that was two meters long and two meters wide.

When Lin's mother was cleaning the room, she found this small compartment as soon as she came in.

This room, which serves as a kitchen, originally had a stove from the basement of the previous resident. The inner room might have been used as a bedroom before, but after they moved out, Cen Xi also took the bed away and sold it as scrap. So this empty inner room suddenly has a small compartment that looks like it was built not long ago. Isn't it an eyesore?

When Lin's mother saw this small compartment, she was very happy. What was this? This was proof that her son-in-law cared about her daughter in his heart!

"Is this cubicle yours for showering? Yes, it is. Very good."

"Mom, you have such a good eye. You can see what I'm thinking at the first glance." Cen Xi immediately turned into a complimenting machine and started complimenting his mother-in-law.

"But now that you have built this small compartment, what will we do after we have a baby?" Lin's mother was happy, but she still thought about what would happen next.

"Qingqing and I won't have a child so early. Even if we do, it's impossible for the child to live alone so soon after birth! He must be older, and that will take many years. Now is not the right time. It's more important to build a small compartment. And even if he really wants to live alone, we can still have someone else live in the outer room!"

Mother Lin nodded. That’s true.

"Okay, as long as you have a plan in mind." Lin's mother didn't say anything more in the end. After all, this was a matter between the young couple. It would be fine for her to just give them a reminder. If she said more, people would get annoyed.

Zhang Mei pouted and muttered in her heart: You just want to show off, and you built a small cubicle? You are showing off!

Aunt Li was praising Lin's mother for finding a good son-in-law. "Sister-in-law, you really found a good son-in-law. Look at how much this son-in-law cares about our daughter."

Mother Lin was also very proud in her heart! She was also very happy that she had found such a good son-in-law. The key point was that she didn't find him, but he came to her door.

Lin Shu felt a little envious when she saw this scene. She didn't know if Jiang Yang would be so nice to her in the future.

Of course she will, she won’t live worse than my aunt.

Lin Shu couldn't help but repeat it in his mind a few more times, hoping that after repeating it a few more times, all this would come true.

Lin Qing was so embarrassed that she hid in another room to tidy up the bedroom.

Her father and brother had just moved the big items into the room, and her mother and aunt had also roughly cleaned the room. All she had to do now was make the bed and pack her clothes.

Father Lin and Brother Lin were also waiting in the kitchen to help.

After cleaning up for half an afternoon, they finally finished tidying up the two rooms. After finishing, Lin's mother and the others did not go back immediately, but started to prepare a hot pot meal.

Since they had just moved in, they had to warm up the rice in the hot pot. When they helped to move the luggage just now, they did not forget to bring some food. Lin's mother was also afraid that the young couple would have no food to eat before the beginning of next month.

Cen Xi even went out to buy some vegetables. Although he didn't buy anything fresh, at least he had something, so his trip was worth it.

"Tsk, aren't you afraid of being starved to death by buying so many vegetables?" Aunt Jiang spat at the door of her house.

When she was about to cook, she saw Cen Xi coming in with a bunch of vegetables. She also saw a piece of meat, which made her swallow her saliva.

"Eat, eat, eat. All you do is eat. You don't even think of sending something for our family." Aunt Jiang muttered softly.

Cen Xi rushed into the house in a hurry, but no one knew what she was thinking about.
