CHAPTER 470: CHAPTER 470: CAN’T STAND IT ANYMORE

Wang Shuyun’s business trip to Qin City is only for a few days, but she has some leave after that, so she will be in Qin City for a while.

Although Shen Lingyu often faces setbacks with her, she has the resilience of a cockroach, becoming braver after each setback. Sometimes she even joins Wang Shuyun for meals at Wang Shuxia’s house.

Due to several incidents involving Shen Lingyu and Gu Lingling, Liu Yating doesn’t have any fondness for Shen Lingyu either.

Liu Yaxin was quick to notice Shen Lingyu’s unfriendly attitude towards Gu Lingling on the first day Wang Shuyun arrived, especially after overhearing Shen Lingyu talk to Wang Shuyun about Gu Lingling on several occasions.

The little girl often didn’t understand those words, but she had a feeling they weren’t nice.

Wang Shuxia couldn’t bear to watch anymore.

Wang Shuyun was unaware, but she heard from Zheng Xiangjun that Yang Yunhai liked Gu Lingling. Her sister had always been a bit clueless, so she hoped Shen Lingyu wouldn’t manipulate her into agreeing to something.

"When are you going back?" Wang Shuxia couldn’t hold back any longer and asked Wang Shuyun.

"What’s the matter, sis?" Wang Shuyun responded while eating a pastry she held in her hand, "I’ll head back after you steam those buns at your place."

Items like pickled meat and vegetables can be sent back, but the little foodie Liu Yaxin said that Gu Lingling’s buns are particularly delicious, especially the pickled vegetable and meat buns she makes.

They’re simply amazing.

Alright then, for that amazing taste, she absolutely had to stay and eat them before leaving.

Well... if possible, she’d definitely take some with her, too.

"I thought maybe you had something going with Shen Lingyu," Wang Shuxia asked probing, "Since you want to eat buns, just help me at home tomorrow, instead of running around."

"Alright, got it," Wang Shuyun agreed readily.

She’d eaten most of the food in Qin City already. It was okay, but she’d rather stay home and eat what her sister made.

The next day after breakfast, Wang Shuyun took Liu Yaxin to Yang Yunhai’s place. As the New Year was approaching, even though her son hadn’t returned, Gu Lingling had already written the couplets.

Since she had nothing else to do, Wang Shuxia assigned her to paste the couplets for Yang Yunhai.

Can you believe it? A mother’s heart can really be carefree. Here she was for so many days and hadn’t visited her son’s room even once.

Wang Shuxia really didn’t know what to say about that.

"Oh, are you here to paste couplets?" As soon as they opened the door to Yang Yunhai’s room, the door opposite also opened, and Liu Xiaoqin jokingly asked, "You must be the Captain’s mother, right? I’m Liu Xiaoqin, my husband works in the same unit as your son."

Wang Shuyun nodded and went inside.

She wasn’t very adept at dealing with these army wives, so whether at the military district in the Capital City or the courtyard, she rarely chatted with those people.

It was the same here.

Liu Xiaoqin pursed her lips subtly.

She’s just a deputy head of a cultural troupe, isn’t she? I heard it’s practically an empty title, and supposedly things aren’t good between her and her husband. I heard Yang Yunhai doesn’t feel close to her.

"These couplets were written by Gu Lingling, right?" Liu Xiaoqin remarked with a smile, "You know, that girl from the countryside knows how to do things. We all want to ask her for a couplet, and she won’t even pay attention to us."

"The Captain isn’t here, but the couplets were already prepared."

There was a sour tone in her voice.

Wang Shuyun smiled; she may not like talking to army wives much and finds there’s nothing to say, but she’s not so foolish as to not recognize both praise and sarcasm.

"Of course, Lingling’s relationship with us isn’t something to be envied or jealous of."
