Chapter 103 Shameless (2 in 1, please generate electricity)
Full of wine and food.
Old Mrs. Lin stayed until the end.
She licked her face and packed up the food on the empty table.
Boss Gu said nothing for the sake of Lin Dajiang's family.
Who knew it would take only a moment to turn around?
Old Mrs. Lin and Lin Dahe each carried three or four bamboo baskets in their hands.
Old Man Lin felt embarrassed and also took one in each hand.
The village head was so embarrassed that he could not speak. With a red face, he whispered to them from behind to put down the bamboo baskets quickly so that people would not look down on Shanglincun and Lin Dajiang.
But Mrs. Lin said shamelessly, "No one wants it anyway, so it's a waste to leave it there. If I don't take it, and a little beggar takes it later, wouldn't I be at a loss? I'm taking my adopted grandson's things, let's see who dares to say anything."
Lin Dahe was already counting the bags of brown sugar in his mother's hands.
Zhou Mei is about to give birth, and the brown sugar will come in handy.
If he goes to his mother and says a few good words for her, she will definitely give him brown sugar.
"You, you——" Li Zheng had never seen such a shameless person in his life. He was so angry that he almost fell backwards. He pointed at Old Man Lin's nose and asked, "You should stop taking advantage of others. Lin Gui, as the head of the family, do you still care?"
Old Mrs. Lin was exposed on the spot. Her face turned pale and blue. She immediately became angry and said, "Village head, you are enjoying the banquet today because of my son. Since Young Master Gu has recognized my son as his godfather, am I not Young Master Gu's grandmother? Isn't it natural for a grandmother to take her grandson's things?"
Mr. Gu, who was drunk, became furious.
I had previously sent people to Shanglin Village to inquire about Lin Dajiang's character and to learn about the Lin family's situation.
I know that the two elders of the Lin family are unreasonable.
Now it seems that it was an understatement.
The level of shamelessness is probably several feet thicker than the city wall of Lin'an Prefecture.
"Dad, Mom!" Lin Dajiang yelled when he came back from the toilet.
He heard everything his mother said just now.
The reason why Young Master Gu recognized him as his godfather was simply because of Xiaoman.
If there hadn't been any divination from the master, how could Lin Dajiang and Mr. Gu, who were not even remotely related, have any connection?
Now Mr. Gu asked Gu Changsheng to acknowledge him as his adoptive father. Putting aside the fact that Xiaoman is Gu Changsheng's benefactor, his family has already taken advantage of the situation.
Not to mention the distant past, just in Dayi Town right now, who dares to mess with the Lin family?
Even if it was the host who came to welcome the guests, in the past, they would have to think twice before touching the Lin family, but now they dare not even touch a hair.
But why don’t his parents understand?
We must be cunning and take advantage of these little things.
Mr. Gu stopped Lin Dajiang and said with a smile: "Brother Lin, it's alright. I'm happy today, so feel free to eat and drink. You all should share in the good fortune!"
Old Mrs. Lin was overjoyed and glared at the head of the village.
"It's just that..." Boss Gu paused, looked at Old Lady Lin, and said in a low voice: "If anyone displeases Changsheng's adoptive parents and brothers and sisters in the future, I will be merciless!"
After saying that, he took out the short knife from his waist and played with it.
Gu Youren is tall and strong, with an exquisite and unique short knife on his waist. When the knife is unsheathed, its sharpness is revealed.
Old Mrs. Lin was so proud of herself just a moment ago, but the next moment she was frightened by Boss Gu's vicious eyes and almost collapsed.
He supported Lin Dahe's arm with trembling hands.
Seeing that Boss Gu didn't move for a long time, he dared to go out with trembling legs.
Lin Dahe was so frightened that he dared not move. He followed Old Lady Lin out of the door of Ruyi Restaurant. He did not breathe a sigh of relief until he could no longer see Boss Gu.
However, he seemed to smell a stench of urine.
Thinking that he had accidentally stepped on boy's urine, he lowered his head.
When he lowered his head, he discovered that there was a small wet spot on the outside of his mother's jacket.
Lin Dahe blurted out: "Mom, you, you peed your pants?"
Old Mrs. Lin realized it later and her face turned red. She pointed at Lin Dahe and cursed, "Dahe, you little bastard, who the hell am I taking these things for? Isn't it for the baby in your wife's belly? You have no conscience, and you still want my good grandson to have the surname Zhou."
"mother!"
Lin Dahe was dissatisfied with his mother's loud shouting.
He only told his parents about this and didn't plan to tell anyone else.
If the incident becomes known to everyone, wouldn't he really become a son-in-law who lives off his wife?
"Okay, okay, I won't tell you, you debt collector!"
The wind was freezing cold, and it blew straight into Mrs. Lin’s wide trouser legs.
Old Mrs. Lin, who was shivering with cold, felt the urge to urinate again.
She stamped her feet, glared at Lin Dahe, and hurried towards the village.
"Mom, those brown sugars?" Lin Dahe chased after her.
"Don't you have several baskets in your hands? I'll give you the brown sugar after your wife gives birth."
After saying that, he didn't care about Lin Dahe's expression and hurried home with Old Man Lin.
The village head, who was disgusted by Mrs. Lin's behavior of taking advantage of others, waited for a long time, took Lin Dahai and Boss Gu by the hand, thanked them repeatedly before leaving Ruyi Building.
Halfway through the journey, he became angrier and angrier.
"Your mother is unreliable, Dahai. You are an honest man, so don't listen to her in the future. And your Dongzhi is still young, so you have to educate him well and don't let him learn his grandmother's habits!"
"As for your wife, you still have to stand up. If you stand up, will your wife not listen to you?"
Lin Dahai said in a muffled voice: "Uncle Lizheng, I know."
Lin Dazhu shook his head and sighed.
Thinking of the scene just now, I couldn't help but blush again.
With such parents, it's no wonder that Lin Dajiang would rather be called lazy than put in more effort.
If it were him, he might have gone even further.
Looking at Lin Dajiang's current appearance, how can he be called a lazy guy?
If he were to say, Dajiang's family is simply the most hardworking family in Shanglin Village.
While most people in Shanglin Village were still feeling proud of catching four fish a day and selling them for forty copper coins, Lin Dajiang's family had long since disdained such a small amount of money.
Dajiang is a hardworking and smart person.
The key is that he married a virtuous wife and has four sensible brothers-in-law.
The babies born are all good bamboo shoots, and they don’t grow crooked!
Maybe their family will have great fortune in the future!

Wang Chunxiu, who had just coaxed Dongzhi to sleep, saw her parents coming back from town.
Both of them carried bamboo baskets in their hands.
When Old Mrs. Lin saw that her second daughter-in-law was unhappy, she rolled her eyes, pouted, and pulled Old Man Lin into the house.
"Don't pay attention to that unlucky star, be careful not to cause bad luck."
"Old woman, she is Dahai's wife after all, you...ah!" Lin Gui thought of what the head of the village said. He was about to stand up for once, but the old woman glared at him with a stern face and he shut up immediately.
Wang Chunxiu waited for a long time but the head of the family did not come back, so she went to her parents' door to ask.
"Mom, didn't the sea come back with you?"
Old Mrs. Lin was changing her pants in the room. When she heard Wang Chunxiu's voice, she immediately cursed: "Don't mention the second child in front of me. You are a traitor. You don't even know how to say a few words for your parents in front of outsiders."
The more Mrs. Lin thought about it, the angrier she became.
This second son was born in vain. When Boss Gu was making things difficult for her, he didn't even step forward to protect his mother.
Standing behind the village head, he looked at him with a look of disapproval.
Wang Chunxiu felt frustrated and gave a bitter smile. Her mother was becoming more and more unreasonable.
The third child is good in every way, but the one in charge is just a weed in the corner.
Exposed to wind, rain and sun.
After waiting for a long time, Wang Chunxiu finally saw Lin Dahai.
At this time, Lin Dahai smelled of alcohol and was holding a bamboo basket in his hand, which he handed to Wang Chunxiu.
"what is this?"
"Everyone who eats at the banquet shall have one portion."
Wang Chunxiu opened it and saw tea leaves, brown sugar and sugar cakes. "Oh my god, so much brown sugar, it must be worth a lot of money!"
Thinking of the eight bamboo baskets in the hands of my mother and father just now, I asked indirectly, "Boss Gu is really generous. He gave one to all the guests. But Boss Gu invited all the wealthy businessmen. Will there be anyone who doesn't want them?"
"how come.
"Why did mom take so many?" Wang Chunxiu was a little jealous. "Just now mom had three in her left hand and three in her right hand, and dad had one in each hand, a total of eight! So, there are eight cans of tea and eight bags of brown sugar, a total of 16 kilograms! Head of the family, why don't you take a little more?"
Lin Dahai drank some wine to gain courage.
When I heard Wang Chunxiu say this, I remembered the shameless things my mother and father had done after the banquet just now.
Even Boss Gu, who is so easy to talk to, speaks ill of him.
"Wang Chunxiu!" Lin Dahai scolded in a deep voice, thinking of what the head of the village said about his mother doing superficial things.
"Why are you the same as mom? You said everyone should have one, but why do mom and dad have so many? They took all the gifts from Boss Gu's spare table!"
"We should be honest and not touch anything that we shouldn't take."
Wang Chunxiu pursed her lips and said in her heart, "What a false ambition and false nobleness."
But she didn't dare show it.
If she goes, she should also learn from her mother and take a few more copies!
That’s brown sugar, how expensive is it?
Wouldn’t it be nice to take a few extra servings to replenish your body during the Winter Solstice and the Beginning of Spring?
Lin Dahai fell asleep immediately. Wang Chunxiu was unhappy, so she grabbed the quilt and covered him with it, then went to the kitchen with a bamboo basket.
Put the brown sugar, tea leaves and sugar cakes in the cupboard and lock it up. Let the remaining two eggs be eaten one each on Lichun and Dongzhi tomorrow.

At this time of year in previous years, every household in Shanglin Village had already prepared to hibernate.
We were too poor to buy cotton, so several children in the family wore the same cotton-padded jacket.
In order to save some energy, they all huddled together in hard and thin quilts, hugging their brothers and sisters.
This year, every household in Shanglin Village used the money they earned from selling fish to make cotton-padded jackets for the few strong fishermen in their family.
One per person, at least it won’t delay your fishing in the river.
Those who followed the Lin family to grow radishes and cabbages earned more. For example, Li Erli made a thick cotton jacket and thick cotton shoes for Aunt Li and Miaomiao this year.
The two sons of the village head, Linda and Linzhuang, planted a lot of crops, and one-third of the crops in the field were radishes and cabbages.
However, Lin Da's son Lin Yaowen and Lin Zhuang's son Lin Yaoguang both studied in Mingyi Hall, and the expenses were also high.
Lin Da's eldest son, Lin Yaowu, followed his maternal family around and did what was commonly known as speculating in trade, so he had no problem supporting himself.
Linda's wife already has a girl in her heart and is planning to ask a matchmaker to come to her house after her son turns 17 after the beginning of the year.
Lin Yaoshu, the second son of Linzhuang, was very motivated in his studies under the influence of his two older brothers.
When I was little, I followed my two older brothers to learn how to read and recite the Three Hundred Thousand characters.
Now San Baiqian has memorized it by heart and follows his two brothers to read "The Great Learning" and "The Doctrine of the Mean".
The headman's family had not yet been divided. Originally, his two sons each had a child to study, and they shared a cup of water equally.
But if the second wife has another grandson to go to school, a cup of water will be divided into three parts, the eldest will take one part and the second will take two parts, and it will never be equal no matter how you serve it.
Lin Zhuang was already worried to the point of being extremely anxious.
I don't want to disappoint my second son, nor do I want to let my eldest brother down.
He thought about dividing the family property like Uncle Lin Gui's family did.
After the family business was divided, he and his elder brother each had a share of four fish. They should work hard on the fields next year and let their wives work hard to raise more chickens and ducks, and sell the eggs in town.
He would rather suffer a little and be more tired than send his second son to a private school.
-
"Uncle Lin Gui!"
"Dahe's wife is about to give birth, and Dahe asked me to give you a message!"
Linda came hurriedly.
He and two young men from the village were delivering fish to Ruyi Tower and happened to meet Lin Dahe.
Lin Dahe came to Ruyi Tower and called his elder brother, wanting him to go back and inform his parents.
Just as he was about to return to the village, he told Lin Dahe not to worry and that he would run back to report the news.
"What, you're going to give birth so soon?"
Old Mrs. Lin came back from the backyard with a bunch of green onions in her hand and was wiping the mud off her trouser legs.
Old Man Lin was not in a good mood, because the boy he gave birth to would not have the surname Lin anyway.
Since his surname is Zhou, that is something that the in-laws should worry about.
"Old man, let's pack up quickly." Old Mrs. Lin went to the kitchen to get a bamboo basket, put four packets of brown sugar that she had gotten from Boss Gu a few days ago into it, and also took out six eggs and two packets of sugar cakes.
"Old man, are you okay? Hurry up, or your grandson will be dead soon!"
Old Mrs. Lin felt a thorn in her heart, and she grumbled to herself, "Why are you rushing to do this? He's the grandson of the Zhou family."
Old Mrs. Lin slapped Old Man Lin on the back and said, "What are you talking about, old man? Didn't Dahe tell you not to talk nonsense?"
The old couple went out in a hurry. Wang Chunxiu, who was washing clothes at the door, glanced at the bamboo basket in her mother's hand, which contained several packets of brown sugar and some sugar cakes.
His eyes instantly turned red.
She didn't have such treatment when she gave birth to Lichun. Her mother just cooked an egg with brown sugar and fed her. After that, during her confinement period, she ate whatever was available at home, without any oil or water.
Fortunately, she is doing well and this is enough for her to drink milk.
Later, when the winter solstice came, there was still nothing.
Why did the third son’s wife have to give him brown sugar and egg candy cake when he gave birth to a baby?
Wang Chunxiu became angrier the more she thought about it, and she beat her clothes with a stick until they clanged loudly.
The old couple of the Lin family rushed to their in-laws' house and saw their third son standing outside. They couldn't wait to ask, "Has the third daughter-in-law given birth?"
When Lin Dahe saw his parents, he said dejectedly, "It's born."
Li Taohua was helping to boil water in the kitchen at the moment. When she heard her parents coming, she thought they came really quickly.
After all, she is my precious baby, and I take everything very seriously.
"Where's the baby? Is he still in there? Bring him out quickly so I can see what my good grandson looks like!" Old Mrs. Lin didn't pay any attention to Lin Dajiang's expression at all. She kept pushing him, asking him to bring the child out so she could see him.
"Mom, the child is still young. It would be bad if he gets exposed to cold wind." Lin Dahe evaded the question.
"Then I'll go in and take a look."
Old Mrs. Lin rushed into the inner room without thinking, and saw her mother-in-law holding a baby in her arms.
She put down the bamboo basket with a smile and said, "This is the brown sugar and eggs I brought for my third daughter-in-law. Come, let me see if my good grandson is growing strong."
Hearing this, Zhou Mei's face immediately fell.
When she was pregnant with this baby, her favorite foods were sour plums and pickled vegetables. She thought that sour food would mean a boy and spicy food would mean a girl, and that there must be a boy in her belly.
Unexpectedly, half a day after the birth, the baby turned out to be a girl.
Thinking of Daha who was looking out the door just now and whose face immediately turned dark when he heard it was a girl, he couldn't help feeling uncomfortable.
He stammered, "Mom, it's not a boy, it's a girl."
"What?" Old Mrs. Lin hurriedly lifted the quilt covering the baby's lower body. After a while, she silently wrapped the quilt up again.
She regretted it and should have taken fewer packets of brown sugar.
Why do you eat so well, girl?
