My Beloved Super Fierce Wife-Chapter 188 Small Frictions, Start Thinking

"Dad, Mom, it’s getting late, and I still have work today, so I’ll be leaving first," said Lin Tang.

After speaking, she pushed her bicycle, ready to leave.

Li Xiuli quickly pulled her back.

"Wait!"

"It seems that Qingqing really likes our vegetables, so why don’t you bring some to her as a thank you for lending you the bicycle?"

No sooner had Li’s mother finished speaking than Lin Qingmu strode into the Vegetable Garden.

Cucumbers, tomatoes, chili peppers, green beans... He picked only the good ones, and in no time, a basket was full.

Lin Tang cast a glance at her third brother, her face full of teasing.

Tsk!

He sure is going all out to chase his bride.

But Qingqing won’t know.

Lin Qingmu: "..." Sister, are you the devil?

Lin Qingmu’s body stiffened for a moment as he met Lin Tang’s eyes, which were filled with an unspoken laughter.

Touching the tip of his nose, he felt a bit embarrassed.

Cough...

Li Xiuli did not notice the silent exchange between the siblings.

Taking the basket, she hung it on the front of the bicycle.

"Take these vegetables over to Qingqing and be careful on the road," she instructed earnestly.

It’s important to reciprocate favors; that’s how relationships last.

"Mm-hmm, got it."

Lin Tang responded, waved to her family, and pushed the bicycle out of the house.

What was once novel had now become familiar to the Lin Family, so they were spared the complex emotions of the previous time.

After watching Lin Tang leave, the family went back inside.

No sooner had Lin Tang left than Uncle Lin’s family arrived.

A line of people had not yet entered when Lin Fu’s hearty laughter could be heard.

"...Haha... Where’s Tangtang? I came to see her."

Having heard from Lin Shou that Tangtang had secured jobs for the family, he couldn’t resist coming over early in the morning. ƒreewebɳovel.com

It was still early, not yet time for work.

Lin Lu was busy with carpentry.

Upon hearing the voice, he looked up.

"Tangtang just left, why is Big Brother here?"

Lin Fu’s eyes dimmed with disappointment in a second.

He had missed her...

He mustered a smile, "No matter, I originally wanted to discuss the Sauce Factory with Tangtang..."

Before he could finish, Lin Lu had set down his tools, his face glowing with anticipation.

"...Can the Sauce Factory really be set up?"

Lin Fu’s face lit up with joy, wrinkles around his eyes deep enough to trap mosquitoes.

"The commune leaders have agreed."

"The condition is that it must not delay the farm work."

"The brick houses owned by the Tang family are quite good, the brigade plans to renovate that courtyard into a factory, and we’ll have to work overtime at night."

The Tang family’s courtyard was a perfect donation.

It saved a lot of trouble.

Lin Lu was also beaming, "What’s the big deal? The men in the village all have strong arms; we’ll be done in a few days."

Upon hearing this, the others smiled so wide their grins nearly reached around their heads.

They were seeing a hopeful future.

Zhou Mei was so excited to know she’d be going to work in the factory that she almost exploded on the spot.

Clinging to Lin Qingshui’s hands, she dug in hard...

"Hubby, Hutou’s dad, Niuniu’s dad, did you hear that?

The brigade is really going to start a Sauce Factory, and I’ll soon no longer have to work the fields. Aren’t you jealous?"

Her tone was unabashedly smug.

Lin Qingshui: "..." He wasn’t jealous of anything.

Could his simple wife please let go of his hand now?

It was about to be torn off.

Lin Qingshui pulled his wife’s hands away and, looking down, saw a row of crescent-shaped nail marks.

He stepped a little farther away from Zhou Mei.

"Envy! I’m so envious that my tears are about to fall," Lin Qingshui said with a deadpan face.

Zhou Mei took him seriously and glared at him in annoyance.

"Look at how little you’ve achieved."

"Even if I got a job, I’d still be your daughter-in-law."

Lin Qingshui’s heart had just softened a touch when Zhou Mei’s next words instantly froze it again.

"...What’s mine is mine, and what’s yours is also mine. We don’t differentiate between each other."

Lin Qingshui: Goddamn not differentiating between each other.

Is this not differentiating between each other? Huh?

Others just felt their teeth ache.

But they were used to it, pretending they saw nothing.

Lin Fu asked with a smile, "I heard from the third that Tangtang got Xiaojing a job?"

"Yes, Tangtang traded a formula she had for it," Lin Lu said.

Without any superfluous words.

"Good, good, truly worthy of being my niece, Lin Fu. Impressive!" Lin Fu slapped his thigh, extremely proud.

His wife, Gao Ping, had known all along that her child Aiguo would eventually work at the Sauce Factory, so she didn’t think much or feel envious about Tangtang giving the job to Xiaojing.

"Did they mention when to start working in the county? Suddenly, Lin Family has two more workers; looks like we’re about to get attention again," she said with a laugh.

Gao Ping was generous by nature, and although she also had her own intentions, she knew how to stay within bounds.

The job that Tangtang got could go to whomever she wanted.

Lin Aiguo flashed a cocky smile, his face full of youthful pride.

"With Tangtang here, our family will be in the limelight plenty in the future."

Worthy of being Lin Aiguo’s sister, truly outstanding!

Lin Fu and the others paused, then nodded in agreement.

Exactly!

However, Guo Xiu was very dissatisfied with Lin Tang giving the job to Lin Xiaojing and pulled a long face.

As though she was owed hundreds of dollars.

Hearing her in-laws and her less-than-stellar brother-in-law praise Lin Tang to the skies.

Guo Xiu couldn’t hold back her resentment and said in a sarcastic tone, "What’s it to us that second uncle’s family is getting attention?"

"Second uncle’s family is really different, producing two workers all of a sudden, I’m so envious it could kill."

As she spoke, she glared at Ning Xinrou with jealousy.

Ning Xinrou merely basked in the glory of being Lin Tang’s sister-in-law; otherwise, she wouldn’t have had a chance...

Lin Qingshan saw the look in Guo Xiu’s eyes, and his face instantly chilled.

He shifted slightly, standing in front of Ning Xinrou.

Blocking the woman’s malicious gaze.

Guo Xiu: "...So what if I glare? Does it cost you a piece of meat?"

Guo Xiu was almost overwhelmed with anger.

She pursed her lips and turned up the heat.

"Oh, look how protective Qingshan is of his wife."

"People who know them would think they’re affectionate, those who don’t might assume Xinrou is always... you know, clinging to Qingshan."

Her tone was venomous, as if she was on the verge of saying the word ’hooking’ outright.

Guo Xiu’s words made everyone’s expressions change drastically.

Lin Qingshan’s face turned cold, his voice laced with iciness, "Please watch what you say, do not try to provoke me."

Guo Xiu, meeting the man’s icy eyes, stiffened, feeling like prey under the gaze of a wild animal.

Lin Fu’s smile vanished in an instant.

He stood up and looked toward Lin Baoguo.

"Baoguo, take your wife and go home."

After saying that, he left, holding back his anger.

Lin Baoguo felt utterly embarrassed, his face burning red.

He exchanged a few words with his second uncle, second aunt, along with Lin Qingshan and Ning Xinrou.

Then he dragged Guo Xiu out of the Lin Family’s second house.

He had never been so humiliated in his life!

Gao Ping was also fuming, coldly shooting Guo Xiu a glance.

Suppressing her anger, she said to Lin Lu and Li Xiuli, "Second brother, Xiuli, sorry for the embarrassment."

With that.

She turned to Lin Qingshan and his wife, "...Guo Xiu—she... she doesn’t know how to speak properly, don’t hold it against her, I apologize..."

As an elder, Ning Xinrou wouldn’t let her apologize.

She pursed her lips and hastily said, "I won’t take it to heart, auntie, please don’t worry about it."
