Chapter 22- The Lin Family

Although the back door of the pleasure house is remote, it is still not safe. In order to avoid encountering acquaintances, Wu Qingyuan quickly helped Lin Amo heal his feet with his abilities and left the area immediately. He returned to the cloth shop to find Zhou-ger and then they went to eat. After lunch, they went back to the village slowly. 

However, considering that his abilities were not something to be revealed, he did not completely heal Lin Amo, but healed the sprained ligament bone, leaving a little discomfort. He didn’t want to be feared as a monster.

Today they went to town to buy a lot of things. Wu Qingyuan bought all the daily necessities such as cloth, oil, salt, sauce, and vinegar. There are so many things that he can’t hold them with his bare hands. He can only hire an ox cart at the market. It carries the good while allowing them to sit at the back.

Although Liushu Village is not too far from the town, it takes two or three hours to go back and forth, which is still very inconvenient, so if one can do it in one trip then they are able to save the trouble of going back and forth.

When returning to the village, the things on Wu Qingyuan’s bullock cart attracted the attention of many villagers. It is not unusual to move and set up a home, but the things in his cart are good things for a discerning person. 

Look at the good types of cloth, and look at the clothes of Wu Qingyuan and Zhou-ger. Since Zhou-ger was taken out of the Zhou Family’s house, he didn’t wear patched clothes every time he went out. With the good cloth, everyone can’t help but smack their tongues secretly, saying that Zhou-ger is really lucky this time.

The new house has been repaired, and the furniture has been laid out, but it will take two days to dry before moving in, and the Lin family will have to be disturbed for a few more days.

“Brother Wu is back, hey, Amo, why are you with Brother Wu? Didn’t you say you went to pick some fruit?”

When he returned to the Lin family, Lin Laogen was finishing his farm work with the second child of the Lin family and was sitting in the yard to rest. When Lin Amo came back with Wu Qingyuan, he couldn’t help but wonder.

Lin Amo was guilty of lying to his own father and was unable to speak- Wu Qingyuan helped him cover, “Uncle Lin, I ran into Amo on the road and he accidentally tripped on his foot…”

“What? Did you trip on your own foot? Why are you so careless, hurry up and stretch out your feet so I can take a look.”

Lin Laogen reacted greatly when he heard it, and ran over after dropping the things in his hands.

He accidentally ruined his own foot when he was chasing his wife on the road. He did not pay attention to the timely treatment and eventually became a lame man. He became sensitive when he heard that his child had tripped on his feet.

So, Lin Laogen got the medicated wine, regardless of how Lin Amo explained that he was okay, but they stubbornly pressed into him a cloth to wipe the medicinal wine again before he gave up. His family’s Amo was already ugly, if his feet become lame the same like him then no one will him marry after that. After all, the biggest advantage of the ger is to work. 

“Mother, when I came back from work just now, I saw Aunt Liu’s family killing pigs. Let’s go buy a pig’s feet and give it to Amo from my family, okay?”

After rubbing the medicinal wine, he was sure it was okay, but Lin Laogen was still a little worried and wanted to ask his mother to buy a pig’s feet for good health.

“Huh? Buy pig’s feet? Where can we have money to eat pig’s feet? If that’s such a good idea then why don’t you say that you buy two catties of meat for your mother?”

The old woman has always disliked the ugly ger in Lin Laogen’s family. It is more expensive to eat pig’s feet than meat, and her face turned black immediately very unwilling to accept it. 

“Mother, didn’t you just let my younger siblings sell a basket of eggs yesterday? I also gave you money a few days ago, so why don’t you have money to buy pig’s feet?”

The old woman, his own mother, has always disliked his baby, both inside and outside, and Lin Laogen was upset.

The second family’s wife looked at Lin Laogen and his son, and whispered, “Mother, the eldest’s family is sincere. The price of buying in one village is cheaper than in town…”

“It’s cheap then you say! Is the one buying you or me? Money is being saved for more important things, no extra money! Old folks want to eat pig’s feet, eldest, you buy it for your child yourself, whoever is in charge can’t save money, and no one can use public money. This little demon from my second child’s family- I’m not dead yet, just old lady. It’s not your turn to be in charge of the house. You will not bear any sons and you will think about money all day long. Useless things!” 

Elderly woman Lin gave her second son’s wife a fierce look, but she didn’t let her go, and she taught her with fierce words.

In these two families, the eldest of the two is not her own, and he still doesn’t listen to her. The second is her biological son, but he has married a daughter-in-law for seven or eight years and has not had a son. She did it against her, and none of them pleased her. If she didn’t manage her family’s money tightly then the two unfilial sons would not be filial no matter what she would do!

The old woman stared with a black face, and the wife of the second family didn’t dare to speak anymore. Lin Laogen was very upset. He can respect and follow his mother on most days, but he just doesn’t do it because of his own baby.

“Okay, mother, if you don’t buy it, then I will buy it myself. Starting this evening, I, Brother Lin, and Tianbao will provide our meals on our own. I will not eat public meals! Tianbao, go to Aunt Liu’s house and get two pig’s feet. Tell her that dad will owe it and pay it in another day.” 

Lin Laogen also had a stubborn temper, and immediately broke his face, hardened his temper, and then ordered his youngest son to do something.

Although he is filial and honest, he has a stubborn temper. It’s not that he didn’t pay his family money. What’s wrong with his family’s Amo eating pig’s feet? What’s wrong with his family’s Amo being a ger? It’s always been his mother that hated on his ger child and has been unreasonable.

After speaking, no matter how ugly the face of the old woman Lin was, she helped Lin Amo call Wu Qingyuan and Zhou-ger and went into the kitchen. She was so angry that she threw her things away and started crying and cursing in the yard. Shouting about how unfilial her family was but no matter how angry she was, she didn’t dare confront Lin Laogen directly.

When she didn’t want to help Lin Amo, Lin Laogen was so angry that he wanted to separate from her, but she remembered clearly that she didn’t dare to stimulate this bull-tempered boss anymore, no matter how she made trouble, she didn’t want to separate. If the big room is divided into two rooms, work and fields will also be divided. The strong labor of the two rooms is gone. Who would do all the work in the field? 

After staying with the Lin family for half a month, Wu Qingyuan knew some things about the Lin family.

In fact, there is no big deal. Like most ordinary people, they are just trivial things.

The eldest Lin Laogen was not born to the current Lin family matriarch but was a son born from the difficult birth of the first wife of the past family head, so the old woman was naturally not so concerned about the son she had not birthed.

But fortunately, Lin Laogen is honest, protective, and filial but he is not a fool, especially to protect his two children, and the old lady still counts on him to work, but dares to be arrogant but dare not really provoke him. He was a sturdy tree and that ensured that he and his family lived an honest life. 

The second son of the Lin family, the second son is slightly weaker. The second son and the third son are both biological sons of the current Lin family matriarch and have to be more filial, but the second son’s wife is unlucky. The man refused to listen to the old woman’s words to divorce his wife and remarry. Old Woman Lin was so angry that she would not wait for the second son to get to his senses.

Only the youngest son of the three sons, Lin Quangui has her heart- although he has not married a wife in his thirties, and is idle all day long, but the youngest will please the old woman, so he is the heart of the old woman, and thinks that out of the three sons- only this one she cares for.

“Brother Wu, I was so embarrassed just now, to let you watch such a joke again…”

After entering the kitchen, Lin Laogen embarrassedly greeted Wu Qingyuan. 

“It’s okay, Uncle Lin, I and A-xi bothered you during this time. Today, I bought two catties of meat in the town and plan to make dumplings tonight. A-xi, help Uncle Lin prepare the stuffing, I’ll make the fire.”

Wu Qingyuan shook his head and didn’t comment on what had happened. He is now an outsider, and it is not good to say too much.

Putting two catties of meat and flour in his hand on the kitchen stove, he asked Zhou-ger for help while sitting next to Lin Amo and burning the fire together. He didn’t even realize that his distribution of work was a little bit strange.

“Yes, cousin.” Zhou-ger rolled up his sleeves obediently and started to help. He was good at cooking. 

“Huh? Two catties of meat? Brother Wu, you’re so polite, it’s too wasteful. Where can you eat two catties of meat when you eat a dumpling, half a catty and then cut a cabbage can make a big pot, brother, you can’t do this, earning money is not easy, how will you live like this…”

Lin Laogen was startled when he saw the two catties of pork on the stovetop.

People in the village did not usually buy that much meat for a meal and only usually got half a catty. Brother Wu was good, and it was already two catties that they were giving. This is not the first time. Wu Qingyuan has lived in his house for half a month and has given him payment for food and accommodation alone. But he still buys things to supplement his food. This young man is too generous and he can’t live his life like this. He is very worried.

“Thank you, Uncle Lin, I know that A-xi and I are going to move out soon. I have troubled you for so long, and I have nothing to show for it, please accept these two catties of pork if you don’t dislike them. Besides, hasn’t Amo got a broken foot today? Just to make up for the dumplings made by uncle last time- I will always remember uncle’s kindness in the future, if you didn’t offer your home in the past then I may have starved.” 

“This, that’s fine, but Brother Wu, you can’t be so polite in the future, I’m going to get angry.”

As soon as he mentioned Lin Amo, Lin Laogen let it go, and his wrinkled face showed a gratifying smile. He hadn’t read the wrong person- when he saw Brother Wu, he thought he was a good person.
