At eleven one, Li Shuping set out to the stall on time.

"Sister Li, is your daughter going to the stall with you today?" Zhou Cuilan asked with a smile.

"I told her to stay at home and study, but she insisted on coming with me to the stall." Li Shuping glared at her daughter as she was moving things from the cart to the outside. "If you don't get into college, I'll fuck you to pieces."

Lin Xiaoyu stuck out her tongue and said, "After I finish my work at noon, I will go home to read and study."

As for her homework, she finished it at school on Friday.

"Comrade Li, can I buy some dumplings?" Wang Mingxue came over carrying a stack of lunch boxes.

Li Shuping raised her head and said with a smile: "Teacher Wang, you are here really early today. The fire is not lit yet. You may have to wait for about 20 minutes."

Wang Mingxue smiled and shook his head. "I don't want cooked food today, I want raw food. My daughter and grandchildren came to visit me today, so I bought some dumplings for them to try."

"Okay, I'll wash and pack it for you. Today we have leek eggs and carrot eggs."

"Then give me two servings of leek and eggs and one serving of carrot and eggs."

It was agreed that he would take his grandson to eat braised pork today. Seeing that it was past eleven o'clock, Lin Yong called his eldest son and daughter-in-law to take the child out.

"Dad, let's take another route." Lin Guodong didn't want to run into his mother when he went out of the alley. It would be even more embarrassing if his mother met someone she knew.

"What road do you want to change?" Lin Yong said unhappily, "It's Li Shuping who abandoned her husband and children who is embarrassing, not us!"

At first, he thought it was embarrassing to walk through Li Shuping's dumpling stall from the alley entrance. He was afraid that someone would recognize him and he would have to take a detour.

But he suddenly realized that it was Li Shuping who was embarrassing. She was not from their Lin family and had nothing to do with them. Why should they hide away like guilty thieves?

Lin Guodong curled his lips and said nothing.

When they were about to reach the entrance of the alley, Lin Yong picked up his grandson and walked directly through the middle of the road.

"Grandpa is grandma and aunt." Junjun said, pointing at Li Shuping and Lin Xiaoyu behind the dumpling stall.

Lin Yong grabbed his grandson's wrist, looked at Li Shuping out of the corner of his eye and raised his voice, "What grandma? Junjun, you don't have a grandma now, you only have a grandpa."

Lin Xiaoyu wanted to open her mouth and call dad, but after hearing what her father said, she closed her mouth again.

There was an acquaintance at the dumpling stall. When he heard this, he said Lin Yong.

"Old Lin, even if you and Li Shuping are divorced, Junjun is still her grandson."

"Yes, you shouldn't say that."

Lin Yong: "She said it herself that Guodong and the others can pretend that she doesn't have a mother? She is not even Guodong's mother! How can she be called Junjun's grandmother?"

Lin Guodong scratched his head and avoided other people's gazes. Oh, how embarrassing.

Zhang Jiao also felt embarrassed and touched her face and turned away.

Everyone at the stall looked at Li Shuping who was cooking dumplings. It was her fault. How could she say such things to a child?

"Guodong's mother, you are wrong here..."

"Yes, even if you get divorced you can't deny your child."

After Li Shuping handed the cooked dumplings to the people waiting in front of the dumpling stall with a smile, she looked at Lin Yong and said darkly: "Why did I say those things? It's because Lin Guodong felt that I, a street vendor, was embarrassing him and asked me to stop doing that, so I said that."

"Isn't it embarrassing for you to set up a street stall?" Lin Yong asked.

Li Shuping spread her arms and said, "I earn money through labor, why should I be embarrassed?"

Lin Yong: "Showing your face in public! Selling your smiles on the street! Aren't you ashamed?"

Didn’t you see the fawning smile she had on her face when she was handing dumplings to people? Yes, he's still a man!

It's really shameless to flatter people in such a fawning way just to sell dumplings.

"What do you mean by selling smiles on the street? I'm selling dumplings!" Li Shuping yelled, "Lin Yong, clean your stinky mouth and don't force me to slap your old face."

What does it mean to sell smiles on the street? They are the street prostitutes in feudal society!

"..." Lin Yong choked and his old face turned red.

Pointing at Li Shuping, he announced loudly: "Our Lin family has nothing to do with this woman who abandoned her husband and children! No matter who she messes with outside, it has nothing to do with our Lin family, and you don't have to involve our Lin family!"

Li Shuping immediately retorted, "Who wants to have anything to do with you?"

"Wow, this is going to end our relationship completely." Someone said.

"Come on, Junjun, grandpa will take you to the state-owned restaurant to eat braised pork." Lin Yong said loudly, and walked away with his grandson in his arms.

He wanted to let people know that his Lin family's family was doing very well and that their family was going to a restaurant to eat braised pork.

Li Shuping, who abandoned her husband and children, and Lin Xiaoyu, who was taken away by her, could only sell dumplings at a roadside stall.

Zhang Jiao glanced at her mother-in-law Li Shuping and followed her.

Li Shuping cursed at Lin Yong's back: "Psycho."

She was in a good mood setting up the stall today, but was affected by the old man Lin Yong.

Li Shuping took a deep breath, sorted out her emotions and continued to do business.

Before her mother noticed, Lin Xiaoyu raised her head to wipe away the tears that came from her anger.

I lowered my head and made up my mind that I must study hard and get into a good university so that my father and brothers who disliked my mother would see it and make my mother proud!

State-owned hotel

The braised pork ordered by Lin Yong was served. Looking at the braised pork with rich red sauce and remembering the way Li Shuping smiled at the man, he lost his appetite.

"Junjun, eat the braised pork quickly. Grandpa bought this especially for you." Zhang Jiao put two pieces into her son's bowl and then put another piece into his mouth.

The braised pork in the state-owned restaurant is delicious.

Lin Guodong also ate one with one chopstick. There had been too little oil and water in the family these days, so he had to eat more to replenish his body.

Lin Guodong ate five or six pieces of rice, and when he saw that his father hadn't started eating yet, he said, "Dad, why aren't you eating?"

Lin Yong put down his chopsticks and said, "Your mother is so mad at me that I don't even have the mood to eat."

Not in the mood to eat?

That was just right for him to eat more, so Lin Guodong picked up a piece of braised pork and put it into his mouth.

Lin Yong glared at him unhappily. As a father, he was so angry that he had no mood to eat, but he, as a son, was eating so happily.

“Don’t call Li Shuping mom when you see her in the future!” Didn’t she want to have anything to do with their family? Then her son and daughter-in-law shouldn’t call her mom.

The children didn't call her or pay any attention to her. He watched to see if she was anxious.

"Junjun, don't call her grandma in the future. Your grandma is a bad person and doesn't even want to take you with her." Lin Yong said while looking at his grandson again.

Junjun parroted as he ate the braised pork, "Grandma is bad."

"Yes, your grandma is bad, let's not call her that."

After teaching his grandson not to call Li Shuping "grandma", Lin Yong felt a little better. He picked up the chopsticks again and saw that the plate with the braised pork was empty.

"...Where is my huge plate of braised pork?"

"Burp..." Lin Guodong burped, "Dad, you said you had no appetite, but I ate it all."

"..." Lin Yong's chopsticks were shaking.
