Chapter 34: How Thick-Skinned
Qin Zhenzhen was taken aback. Wasn't this little girl's attitude towards her changing too quickly? From wishing her dead to now not wanting her to leave?
Well, she had to admit that she could indeed provide them with a sense of security and ensure they wouldn't go hungry.
Recalling how Su Cheng had been mistreated by their aunt and couldn't fight back, Qin Zhenzhen couldn't help but empathize. "Then I'll come back tomorrow."
Su Ning let out a sigh of relief and suggested happily, "Third Sister-in-law, take these fish back. We won't be able to finish so many."
Qin Zhenzhen didn't hesitate. "Alright, I'll take two big ones."
She had already planned to bring two large fish back for her family.
As she spoke, she headed to her room to pack her belongings. She wanted to make sure she had a change of clothes with her.
"I'll grab some straws," Su Cheng offered, taking the initiative to help.
He skewered the fish with a few straws, making it easier to carry.
However, when he reached the door, he saw Ms. Lin approaching with a basket filled with five ears of corn.
Su Cheng's heart filled with anger at the sight of the corn. These were the stolen goods that had been confiscated earlier that morning!
Su Ning was equally annoyed as she couldn't close the door in time.
"I understand that you can't be satisfied with just porridge. I couldn't bear to eat these five corns, so I came to give them to you as a gesture."
Su Cheng's face turned cold. "We don't want the corn! Take them back!"
Ms. Lin pretended not to hear him and placed the corn on the table. "Consider it a small gift from your aunt. Don't be shy."
Su Ning muttered under his breath, "How shameless!"
"It's all my fault for misjudging the situation. Qian Duoduo is also to blame. He wanted to frame Su Cheng, and I fell for it."
"Don't blame me. My family hasn't eaten meat for a long time, so my eyes are a little blurry."
Ms. Lin rolled her eyes and shamelessly claimed that she hadn't eaten meat in a long time.
Unfortunately for her, no one bothered to respond. Nobody was willing to give her any fish.
But she had the audacity of a thick-skinned person and walked towards the water tank.
"I'm feeling thirsty. I'll have some water."
In reality, she had overheard the commotion near the water tank.
Then, she exclaimed in surprise, "Wow! Where did you get so many fish? Which fish farm did you catch them from?"
Su Ning could only reply, "No, Third Sister-in-law and I went to the river and caught them!"
