Every village would have one or two "village guardians." They were often simple-minded and foolish, yet kind-hearted.
The older generation often said that village guardians came to th...
After sitting for a while, Lin's mother went to the kitchen at the back to cook.
Chen Wang went outside to play with Lin Yumeng, making the little girl very happy. Her cold felt much better.
"Awang?"
A somewhat surprised voice came.
Chen Wang looked up and saw his elder brother-in-law Lin Guodong coming back with farm tools and his two sisters-in-law.
"Dad, my uncle brought us a big sheep."
The little girl shouted with a smile and made some big gestures with her hands.
Chen Wang was almost melted by the cuteness, and a smile like a daughter-slave appeared on his face again.
Although the younger sister at home is also very cute, she is two years older than Lin Yumeng and has passed the cutest age for a girl.
In addition, we have been together for a long time and I treat her as a younger sister, so I don’t feel like a daughter-slave anymore.
"Brother-in-law, sister-in-law, and second sister-in-law!"
Chen Wang greeted with a smile.
"Why are you sending something again? It's from so far away."
My uncle-in-law said with a smile on her face.
"We were lucky. I went into the mountains with others and hunted a herd of wild goats. We couldn't finish all the meat at home, so I sent some to you."
"Oh, Awang, you are really capable. There is still more meat than you can eat. If others heard this, I'm afraid they wouldn't believe it."
"Sister-in-law is joking again."
"Xiuqin and the little guy didn't come?"
Lin Guodong asked with a smile.
"Well, I came here alone. It's not convenient for her to take care of the little one."
"Yes, come on, go inside."
"You guys take care of yourselves, Niuniu and I will play for a while."
"Hehe... Uncle, play with me."
The little girl hugged Chen Wang's right arm with a sweet smile.
"Now I only have eyes for your uncle."
My eldest uncle's wife couldn't help laughing and made a joke.
"Awang, don't pamper her too much."
Lin Guodong said this with a smile, and then went into the house.
When it was almost twelve o'clock, Lin Zhiming and Lin Yuqing came back from school together.
"Uncle-in-law!"
"Uncle-in-law!"
When the two saw Chen Wang at the door, they shouted in surprise and ran over.
"You guys are back!"
Chen Wang greeted with a smile.
"Uncle-in-law, why are you here?"
Lin Zhiming ran over even faster and asked with a smile.
"I'm here to bring you some delicious food!"
"Delicious food? Where?"
Lin Zhiming's eyes lit up and he looked around expectantly.
Lin Yuqing was also looking for it curiously.
"It's a sheep. A very big one."
Lin Yumeng helped to explain with a smile and gestured with her hands again.
"Sheep? Uncle, did you hunt them in the mountains again?"
Lin Zhiming looked at him excitedly.
"yes!"
Chen Wang smiled and nodded, saying, "Your grandma is cooking, we should be able to eat soon."
"Great, there's mutton to eat. I'll have two bowls of rice for lunch."
Lin Zhiming cheered loudly.
“Uncle, aren’t Aunt Xiaoyu and Aunt Xiaoyu here?”
Lin Yuqing asked, looking up.
"Yes, I came alone this time."
Chen Wang smiled and reached out to rub her head.
"All right."
Lin Yuqing looked a little regretful.
After playing with the three children for a while, Lin's mother called from the house, asking them to come in for dinner.
Chen Wang took his three children to wash their hands, and then sat down at the eight-immortals table in the main hall.
Lin's mother made four dishes and a soup, which looked quite sumptuous.
The three of them sat nearby and began to salivate as they looked at the food on the table.
Obviously the elders in the family have taught that when there are guests, they are not allowed to pick up their chopsticks first. They can only hold the chopsticks and look at my brother-in-law with expectation.
"Eat, eat, why are you looking at me?"
Chen Wang picked up the chopsticks with a smile, picked up a large piece of mutton and put it in Lin Yumeng's bowl.
"Thank you, uncle."
The little girl gave him a sweet smile.
"Eat meat, I want to eat meat too!"
Lin Zhiming, who had been impatient for a long time, immediately picked up his chopsticks and aimed directly at the stewed lamb in the enamel basin.
"You're just impatient!"
The eldest uncle's wife glared at him unhappily.
Lin Zhiming remained unmoved. He picked up a large piece of mutton and put it into the bowl, then started to eat it with relish.
"Come on, Awang."
The brother-in-law poured a full glass of wine and handed it to Chen Wang.
"well!"
Chen Wang quickly put down his chopsticks, took the wine glass that was about to overflow with both hands, leaned over and took a sip.
After his brother-in-law poured wine for Mr. Lin and Old Man Lin, and filled his own glass as well, Chen Wang raised his glass to toast.
After drinking half a glass of wine together, everyone started chatting while eating.
Probably when Lin's father and others asked about the recent situation, Chen Wang told them everything and also talked about the planting of medicinal herbs a few days ago.
When they learned that he had rented a hundred acres of land, everyone in the Lin family was dumbfounded.
The Lin family has a large population and owns relatively much land in the village.
However, after working hard in the fields year after year, there was little money left in the end.
If it weren’t for Chen Wang’s help last year and teaching them how to sell crayfish and make some money, the family would probably still be unable to make ends meet!
Therefore, when they heard that Chen Wang rented so much land at once, they couldn't help but worry about him.
"Don't worry, I'm confident in what I'm doing. Come, have a drink."
Chen Wang saw what everyone in the Lin family was thinking and raised his glass again with a smile.
Thinking about the changes he had undergone in the past two years after he came to his senses, everyone felt relaxed and didn't say much.
After lunch, Chen Wang sat outside with the two old men, chatting in the sun and listening to Grandpa Lin talk about things in the fifties and sixties.
