Chapter 332 Exposed
After Nanzhi and Shen Miaomiao finished eating, they asked Xiaomi to go out and return the bowls. They stayed at home and waited for Aunt Zhuang to come back.
Aunt Zhuang went out for an hour, and it was already noon when she came back. When she saw Nanzhi and Shen Miaomiao still sitting in the main room, a strange look flashed on her face.
"Miss, don't you need to go to the restaurant today?" She deliberately stayed outside for a while, thinking that she would not run into them again when she came back, but she never thought that they would still be at home at noon.
"I'll go in the afternoon, but it's really far for Aunt Zhuang to go shopping for groceries." Nanzhi squinted and smiled, but what he said made the listener's face turn pale.
"Yes, it's the master who wants to eat beef, so I ran a little further."
Aunt Zhuang explained, holding a basket.
"Really?" Nanzhi didn't look into her vegetable basket, but just nodded and smiled: "Thank you for your hard work."
"It's not hard, it's not hard." Seeing that she no longer asked herself any more questions, Aunt Zhuang hurriedly carried the basket to the kitchen. Seeing that she was a little flustered, Shen Miaomiao let out a light sigh.
"Sister Nanzhi, why does she look guilty when buying groceries? Could it be that she got kickbacks?"
"It's not like that. Let's just wait and see."
Nanzhi shook his head and said nothing more. They only had to wait for a while and they would all understand.
It wasn't until lunch was ready that Aunt Zhuang seemed to breathe a sigh of relief and was about to go out, carrying a food box.
"Miss, Miss Shen, I've also prepared lunch. You go ahead and eat."
"Where are Aunt Zhuang going? Don't you want to have lunch together?" Shen Miaomiao asked at the right moment.
Aunt Zhuang paused for a moment before replying with a forced smile on her face: "I'm going to deliver food to the master and his wife."
Nanzhi nodded and waved her away.
After confirming that the person was gone, Shen Miaomiao asked in a low voice: "Sister Nanzhi, do we want to follow him?"
"go."
Nanzhi looked at the food on the table and clicked his tongue.
When she went to the kitchen to put the dishes and chopsticks in the morning, she saw that the only dishes left in the kitchen were potatoes and a stale cabbage. Now there were only two dishes on the table.
A plate of shredded potatoes and a bowl of soft cabbage with fried meat.
When Aunt Zhuang came back just now, she saw the vegetables in the vegetable basket. Which ones were on her table?
The food box just now couldn't hold much. It was said to be a meal for my father and mother. Could it be that my brother and sister-in-law didn't need to eat it?
She did not take Miaomiao to eat at home, and only asked Xiaomi to clean up the dishes after eating, while she took Shen Miaomiao to her grandma's stall.
My snack stall is just around the corner from my house. If Aunt Zhuang comes to deliver food, she will come here first.
It was lunch time, and the food stalls were busy. Mother Lin and her two daughters-in-law never stopped.
"Daughter, why are you here?" Mother Lin had just finished clearing the table when she saw her daughter, and a smile suddenly appeared on her face.
Nanzhi and Shen Miaomiao helped her clean up and asked, "Mom, has Aunt Zhuang come to deliver the food?"
Mother Lin was stunned and shook her head: "What kind of meal is she here to deliver?"
Seeing that Aunt Zhuang did not come, Shen Miaomiao and Nanzhi looked at each other and saw some coldness in each other's eyes.
"It's okay, I'm just asking. Miaomiao and I will go to Dad's shop."
Nanzhi waved his hand and was about to leave with Shen Miaomiao. Mother Lin was a little confused by the two of them. Seeing that the empty table was filled with guests again, she could only ask: "Aren't you leaving after eating?"
"No, no, mom, you go ahead and get busy." Nanzhi shook her head and refused, and then rushed to Lin's shop with Shen Miaomiao.
Nearly two-quarters of an hour had passed by the time the two of them arrived at the carpenter's shop. On the way, they happened to meet Lin Yicheng, who was rushing to the shop after bringing food from the restaurant.
"Brother?"
"Fat Ya? Miaomiao? Why are you two here?"
Lin Yicheng was so hungry that he rushed into the shop with two large food boxes, but was suddenly stopped by someone. Just when he was about to curse, he realized that the people standing there were his own sister and Shen Miaomiao, and he felt angry. It disappeared immediately.
"Let's come and see you." Nanzhi saw the food box in his hand, and Gu Zuo asked curiously: "Didn't Aunt Zhuang come to deliver food to you? Why did you come out to buy food?"
Lin Yichen's smiling face suddenly felt as if he had eaten shit. He replied with a stinky face: "Don't talk about Aunt Zhuang. She comes to the shop every day and clings to Dad. It's really annoying. She looks quite honest, but she seems to be deaf, and she can't seem to hear anything she says."
Nanzhi was a little surprised. She really never thought that Aunt Zhuang would be so bold in just half a month.
"Okay, okay, Miaomiao and I haven't eaten yet. Let's go to the shop with you to eat."
When the three of them returned to the shop, Father Lin was making furniture with a cold face, and Aunt Zhuang stood beside him like a little daughter-in-law, serving him tea and water. She really looked like Father Lin's wife.
Nan Zhi and Lin Yicheng both had dark faces, and Shen Miaomiao was also a little embarrassed.
This Aunt Zhuang is so courageous. It was obvious today that Sister Nanzhi and herself were a little suspicious of her, but she still had the courage to come to Uncle Lin...
"Go away!" Father Lin wanted to push Aunt Zhuang away, but he was afraid that she would sit on the ground and cry and attract the attention of passers-by.
"Brother Lin, let me wipe your sweat for you." Aunt Zhuang is in her thirties and is an honest girl. Although she is not beautiful, she considers herself younger than Lin's mother. She always feels that if she pays more attention, she can have a place in the Lin family.
"Aunt Zhuang, what are you doing?" Nanzhi's face was as dark as the bottom of a pot, and there was even more chill in her words.
She originally wanted to save some face for her, but now she seems to be overthinking it.
A flash of panic flashed across Aunt Zhuang's face when she heard Nanzhi's voice, and she quickly stood farther away from Father Lin.
"Miss, why are you here..."
"This is my Lin family's shop. I can't come here anymore?"
Aunt Zhuang quickly waved her hand and explained: "No, no, the lady misunderstood what I meant."
"Then what are you doing?"
"I just saw that the master was sweating a little too hard, so I thought of wiping it for him."
Nanzhi narrowed his eyes and continued to question: "Aren't you delivering food to my parents? Why didn't you deliver it to my grandma first?"
Aunt Zhuang breathed a sigh of relief, with a slight smile on her face: "Miss, it's dinner time now. They are very busy at the moment, and they didn't have time to eat the food after they sent it over. I originally planned to wait for another hour before sending it over. .”
Seeing her acting honestly, Nanzhi felt very upset. If he hadn't seen her behavior last night and paid more attention today, he might have been deceived by her.
"Where's the food box you brought?" Nanzhi raised her chin and asked.
The smile on Aunt Zhuang's face froze: "Miss, are you hungry? Haven't I already prepared food at home?"
The two were in a stalemate, but Lin Yicheng opened the food box directly from the corner.
There were two plates of meat and vegetables inside.
A plate of clean beef and a plate of fried pork with chili suddenly appeared in front of Nanzhi and Shen Miaomiao.
