After Zhimin’s wife reacted, her tears flowed out and her voice was a little sharp. Chen Zhimin furrowed his brows and rubbed the space between his brows, feeling a little impatient. “Don’t say such nonsense here! Go back!”
Zhimin’s wife cried even louder. “Alright, you, Chen Zhimin! You’re such a scumbag! I’m not going to live with you anymore!”
As she spoke, Zhimin’s wife ran out. Chen Zhimin’s face was dark, but he did not chase after her. He just looked at Chen Zhiguo in embarrassment. After a while, everyone saw Zhimin’s wife carrying bags of luggage. She was going back to her parents’ house.
Mother Chen looked at Li Qin and said in embarrassment, “It’s okay. The two of them are always like this.”
Li Qin smiled and waved her hand. “I understand. Where’s the cloth? I’ll start working on it first.”
Mother Chen quickly said, “Here, here.”
The next morning, Mother Chen walked into the house and planned to do some needlework before anyone came. She did not expect to see Li Qin as soon as she entered the house. She was stunned for a moment and was a little surprised. “Li Qin, you’re here so early.”
Li Qin stopped the needlework in her hands and smiled a little embarrassedly. “There’s nothing much to do after breakfast, so I thought I’d come over first.”
Mother Chen quickly went forward and gave Li Qin a backrest. “There’s no need to rush. Just do it slowly. You can take a break after breakfast.”
Li Qin said, “No need. I’m in high spirits. I’ll do some work first. You can take a break first.”
Mother Chen was stunned. She patted her head as she thought of something. “Yes, yes. I still have to wash the dishes. I left them there after breakfast.”
Mother Chen turned around to look for her bowl as she spoke, but she could not find it. “Hey, where’s my bowl?”
Li Qin smiled. “I took it to wash it.”
Mother Chen instantly felt a little embarrassed. “How could I let you wash it?”
Li Qin smiled and did not say anything else. In Mother Chen’s heart, she had a good impression of Li Qin. The two of them sat together and did the work for the whole morning.
The more mother Chen looked at Li Qin, the more she liked her. Li Qin’s personality was very straightforward. She was also hardworking and clean. Mother Chen suddenly had the idea of introducing her to Chen Zhimin.
When it was time for dinner, Li Qin began to pack up and prepare to go home. Mother Chen saw this and quickly stood up. “Stay for dinner. It’s more convenient this way.”
Li Qin smiled and quickly thanked her. “No, there’s still the child at home. I have to go back and take a look. I’ll cook for him.”
Mother Chen could not say anything else. “Alright, if there’s anything you need help with, just say it.”
Li Qin nodded and left. Mother Chen looked at Li Qin’s back as she left. She was very conflicted. She wished that she could become her daughter-in-law tomorrow.
As she thought of something, Mother Chen went to Ding Jun’s courtyard. She deliberated and said, “Little Jun, after getting along with her, I realized that Li Qin is a pretty good girl. Even though she’s a widow, I think she’ll be able to live well. I was thinking that it would be great if she could marry Zhimin. Why don’t you go and test her and see if she is okay with that idea?”
Ding Jun looked at Mother Chen’s burning gaze and remembered the first time she saw Li Qin. She nodded and said, “Alright, I’ll go and ask her when I have the chance.”
Mother Chen immediately smiled happily and said, “Alright, I’ll leave it to you then.”
In the afternoon, Li Qin finished sewing in the main residence. Just as she was about to go back, Ding Jun called out to her from the courtyard. Ding Jun smiled and handed her a piece of cake. Her tone was gentle as she said, “Sister Li Qin, this is a cake that I just made. How about you try it?”
Li Qin looked at the cake and hesitated for a moment. She was a little flattered. “I’ve long heard that your cake is delicious. You don’t have to try it to know that it will definitely taste good.”
Ding Jun smiled and handed the cake to her. “You’ll know if it’s delicious after you try it. If it’s delicious, bring two pieces back to your son..”
