Chapter 314. Who didn't have a temper
"That kid is bigger than his brother. He's also quite strong. Can't do fine work, but he can do all the rest of the chores." Second Sister stated.
Lin Qing He had some impression. This nephew, Hu Zi. had once brought a basket of fish over. He caught it by himself and then sent it over here.
He was only thirteen years old then. In a blink, four years have passed. He was certainly tall.
Lin Qing He didn't mind bringing more people.
Because the place was spacious enough. Also, it was just one more person eating. After going over there, there were many things to do.
For example, Er Ni and Xu Sheng Mei watch the shop. As for the boy, Hu Zi, he can go out to set up a street stall. Not wasting any labor.
"If he is free these two days, let him come over and sit down with me. I will treat him to sweets." Lin Qing He didn't give a clear answer. She had to take a look first.
"Okay. I'll let him come over tomorrow." Second Sister was delighted.
The children hadn't come back this year There were many seats at home, so lunch was eaten at this side.
After eating, Eldest Sister and Second Sister sat for a while before going to the old Zhou's house.
Once the two sisters and brothers-in-law have left, Zhou Xiao Mei asked in confusion: "Fourth Sister-in-law, do you need so many people in the dumpling shop?"
"None of them are going to the dumpling shop. I plan to take samples to the garment factory this year and ask the garment factory to make some new clothes for me. Then I'll open a clothes shop." Lin Qing He replied.
Zhou Xiao Mei's expression revealed her surprise: "Fourth Sister-in-law, do you want to open a clothing store yourself?" Her fourth sister-in-law was too tough!
"Your fourth brother is making progress now. I can't lag behind him, otherwise, it'll easy for the pretty rich ladies from the capital to hook him. What am I to do? I have to make a living for myself." Lin Qing He answered.
Zhou Qing Bai looked helpless.
Zhou Xiao Mei and Su Da Lin both laughed.
"Qing Bai, what wrong have you done to your wife?" Mother Zhou's face changed and said at once.
"Mother, I haven't." Zhou Qing Bai answered powerlessly.
"Yes, you haven't. It's just someone aimed for you. Mother, once you're there, you can have to an eye out., you almost lost me and the three grandsons." Lin Qing He told Mother Zhou.
Mother Zhou, who was fooled silly, hurriedly asked, "What happened?"
"Wife." Looking at his wife, Zhou Qing Bai didn't know whether to cry or laugh.
Lin Qing He gave him an eye-roll and said, "The one called Zhang Mei He. Do you think I forgot? She even went to your store to find you. If I just happened to adjust my class and encounter it, huh!"
Pulling out old accounts was what a woman is best at. She was no exception.
Zhou Xiao Mei and Su Da Lin were both stunned. Mother Zhou was so anxious, she hit her son: "You ... you want to anger Mother to death? You're not living well with your wife and your children and...instead……"
"Mother, calm down." Despite bringing it up, Lin Qing He was not willing to let her own man receive a beating. She helped Mother Zhou back to her seat and said: "That incident has passed. That woman had already married. I'm just letting you know. If Qing Bai dared to do me wrong, I won’t forgive him. There is no turning back on my end. Also the three sons, old Zhou Family can forget about having any of them. All change to my surname, Lin."
After eating, Eldest Sister and Second Sister sat for a while before going to the old Zhou's house.
Once the two sisters and brothers-in-law have left, Zhou Xiao Mei asked in confusion: "Fourth Sister-in-law, do you need so many people in the dumpling shop?"

Also the three sons, old Zhou Family can forget about having any of them. All change to my surname, Lin."
Mother Zhou hurriedly comforted: "Da Wa's mother, don't be angry. What kind of personality Qing Bai has, we all know. He definitely dare not to do you wrong. If no,t I will be the first to not spare him!"
Lin Qing He spoke: "Today, I went along with Elder Sister and Second Sister and let Sheng Mei and Hu Zi go over. Second Sister-in-law mentioned Liu Ni going over and I didn't agree. I don't know if it will be bad."
"No big deal. Your shop, you see fit how it is managed. Who can say anything." Mother Zhou hurriedly assured.
"Second Sister-in-law wants Liu Ni to go over?" Zhou Xiao Mei was shocked and rolled her eyes: "Second Sister-in-law's face is too big. What's Liu Ni's virtue? The last time she ran to the city and ate two meals at my place. After finishing, she wiped her mouth and ran away!"
It didn't matter if she didn't help wash the dishes and sweep the floor or anything, but that attitude. Zhou Xiao Mei can't tolerate it. Later, Zhou Liu Ni went over a few times, Zhou Xiao Mei simply let her go without even having her stay for a meal.
She had her nose up high on her face, how could she, her aunt be polite? Treating everyone like fool?
"Eldest Sister-in-law and Third Sister-in-law don't recommend letting Liu Ni go." Lin Qing He nodded.
"All of them live there. Eldest Sister-in-law and Third Sister-in-law are right. Mother, don’t stir trouble, understand? With a filial daughter-in-law like Fourth-sister-in-law, the rest of your life is guaranteed. If you start something, I won't agree." Zhou Xiao Mei directed at her own mother.
She knew what kind of personality her mother has.
Mother Zhou became meek. Lin Qing He took over and said: “Mother is thinking on my behalf. When we are at that side in the future, raise two more chickens, Mother. I prefer to eat Mother’s chicken. The soup stewed with it is delicious. "
"That's definitely no problem." Mother Zhou quickly agreed.
"Is the place big enough?" Zhou Xiao Mei asked.
"Enough. There is still a piece of land. If you want to eat something, you can grow some yourself or you can raise chickens." Lin Qing He nodded.
"That's right. Da Lin and I have both decided that we will go with you and Father this summer. At that time, we will live with you and Father." Zhou Xiao Mei said.
"Second Sister-in-law wants Liu Ni to go over?" Zhou Xiao Mei was shocked and rolled her eyes: "Second Sister-in-law's face is too big. What's Liu Ni's virtue? The last time she ran to the city and ate two meals at my place. After finishing, she wiped her mouth and ran away!"

"That's right. Da Lin and I have both decided that we will go with you and Father this summer. At that time, we will live with you and Father." Zhou Xiao Mei said.
"Really decided?" Mother Zhou was ecstatic and uttered.
"En, it's decided." Zhou Xiao Mei confirmed.
"Great! Great! Go over there. With more people, there will be more care." Mother Zhou said with satisfaction.
Zhou Xiao Mei and Su Da Lin didn't go back to the city until after three o'clock. Su Da Lin couldn't win against his mother-in-law's enthusiasm and took a chicken back.
In the evening, Eldest Sister-in-law and Third Sister-in-law came to visit.
Second Sister-in-law didn't come over. Thinking about this, it was clear today's matter made her angry. Lin Qing He didn't care.
It was her own store. She can recruit whoever she wants or not. Even if Mother Zhou, who was her mother-in-law, opens her mouth, it was useless. Let alone a sister-in-law.
"Why didn't Second Sister-in-law come over." Still, Lin Qing He put up a facade and asked.
"The smile on her face today was forced." Eldest Sister-in-law mentioned helplessly.
"Who would spoil her. It's your shop. You call over whoever you want. Don't bother with her." Third Sister-in-law said sharply.
Lin Qing He also responded: "We're all one family. How can I not want our family to do well? In the future, it will be the world of these young people. They will be able to take care of each other in the future. I heard Xiao Mei mention today that the girl often goes over to the city. And that she also dump the bowls after finish eating."
It wasn't gossiping about Zhou Liu Ni. It’s just that this girl was too shameless. Second Sister-in-law still acted like her daughter was great. It’ll be strange if Lin Qing He was polite to her. Who didn’t have a temper?

Thank you for the chapter!!
ReplyDeleteToday is a really funny chap....
I love ZQB's reaction.... Hahahaha... Poor QB...
Hahaha, settling old accounts with ZQB XD
ReplyDeleteYou're not living well with your daughter-in-law and your children and...instead……" ---> I think you have to change it to 'your wife'
Tch, that second brother's wife really too biased..and petty
ReplyDeleteSecond-sister-in-law's fault really isn't just because she was looking out for the interests of your children. Among Lin Qing He's sister-in-laws, who didn't promote their kids and earnestly wish that Lin Qing He would take at least one of them to help out in the capital? On the other hand, they're also quite aware of their children's strength and weaknesses.
ReplyDeleteZhou Qing Bai's eldest sister, for one, agrees easily that her daughter would not rank higher than Er Ni in the shop because she's illiterate and certainly can't calculate and help keep the books in the shop. His second eldest sister also knew that her son most has strength and earnestness as his best points, and certainly can't compete on any educational merits.
Yet who among the Zhou extended family didn't know what Liu Ni was like? And second-sister-in-law as her mother is completely blind to this annoyance and contempt showed by everyone else?? And think that it would be such a great catch for Lin Qing He to have her help over, as opposed to other nieces or nephews? Dream on!
Honestly the second sister law is stuck in a kind of loop.
DeleteLiu Ni is hard to be told on doing housework, so it fell on San Ni, but because everything fell on San Ni Liu Ni became even more lazy and it makes it seem like San Ni is too earnest on working and everything is done by her that there's nothing left for Liu Ni to do. And once that happens Second Sister in Law is disillusioned by the situation, "Liu Ni isn't lazy! her sister is just too good at housework"
When in reality it's a mistake of parenting. She shouldn't have let Liu Ni be able to leave the housework without any consequences. Like how if it's like the boys LQH would immediately not give them their food portion and when they asked why they didn't get she'll answer "Ah, you won't even clean you bowl and plate why should I give you food?" But Liu Ni is lazy and her biggest risk of being such is getting hit by her mother if other people pointed it out.
Feels bad for the second brother, he definitely deserved a better wife.
Second sister-in-laws problem is her world view. It's too narrow. She only sees ten feet away, and not the whole picture. If a lot of people is telling you that your child is lazy, even the father, it's time to consider that it's the truth.
ReplyDeleteI still cant wrap my head around why LQH wont hire San Ni, she's a good kid and diligent too, whats the difference between her and that eldest sister daughter who's shy and iliterate
ReplyDeleteis this semi translate with MTL??? Why the overall quality drop so much? It’s really hard to read and it burns my brains and eyes... It’s no longer smooth reading, I have to fix some sentences on my own by myself just like I read MTL....
