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.

“What a persistent meddler!”

Their aunt must have overheard that they had caught several large fish and now wanted to take advantage of their good fortune.

Thinking about how she had mistreated her younger brother earlier that day, Su Ning wished she could drive their aunt away with a broom!

However, she was their aunt, so she did not dare to be disrespectful to her.

“Ning’er, Cheng’er.”

Ms. Lin greeted them warmly, but the siblings were not in the mood to engage with her.

Trying to control herself, Ms. Lin adopted a more subdued tone. “Where is your third sister-in-law?”

Su Ning reluctantly responded, “My third sister-in-law is in her room. She’s heading back to her parents’ house later.”

Ms. Lin frowned. “Why is she going back so soon? She just returned the day before yesterday!”

She had heard that Qin Zhenzhen and Su Ning had gone fishing by the river and had a stroke of luck, catching nearly ten large fish at once. Many people had witnessed it.

She had seized the opportunity to come and take advantage of the situation, thinking it wouldn’t be a bad deal to exchange five ears of corn for a few big fish. Qin Zhenzhen was probably planning to send the fish back to her family.

Luckily, she had arrived promptly!

Noticing that Qin Zhenzhen hadn’t left her room, Ms. Lin proceeded to explain the purpose of her visit. “I’ve come here to apologize to you.”

“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!”
