The light in the main room was not good, but it was not too dark at this time, so the dining table was set up in the yard.

Whenever Lin Mo is at home, there is always meat and vegetables on the dinner table. Plus, it is A-Mo Lu who cooks, so the meat and vegetables taste even better than what Lin Sheng and the others usually cook.

After everyone was seated, Lin Mo picked up a piece of chicken thigh and gave it to Su Mu.

When he looked up, he saw Lin Wen's eager eyes, so he picked up another piece for him.

Su Mu ate seriously, mouthful by mouthful, looking at the huge table of dishes, and occasionally reached out his chopsticks to pick up something, no longer as hesitant and cautious as before.

On the contrary, Lao Gu's family was so nervous that their hands were shaking. They didn't dare to pick up the food too far away and just grabbed the plate of vegetarian dishes in front of them to eat.

But Lin Sheng was a thoughtful person. Seeing that the family was reluctant to put down their chopsticks, he would ask them to pick up some meat dishes from time to time, and occasionally find some topics to chat about each other's situation.

Soon everyone was full, and by the time they finished cleaning up, it was already late.

"Third brother, we made grandma so angry today. Will she secretly retaliate against us? I'm so angry! If she wasn't our grandma, I would definitely fight her!"

Lin Wu rubbed his bloated belly and looked at Lin Mo with worried eyes.

"It's really infuriating. The year we split up, we didn't even have time to plant the land, and we almost froze to death and starved to death in the winter.

Xiao Wu and I went to grandma's house to ask her to borrow some food, but she kicked us out without even looking at us. Now that our conditions are better, she has started coming to our house. If you weren't at home, you wouldn't know that she has taken a lot of food in just these few days.

My uncle and his family also often go to the new house and eat and drink with the workers, but they don't work. I have talked to them several times, but it's no use."

Lin Sheng's face showed bitterness. He was angry and annoyed when talking about these things, but those were their relatives and elders. They could not beat or scold them. If the matter got out of hand, they would be the ones who would suffer.

Lin Wu continued angrily, "That's right, he was so arrogant at the construction site. I thought they were building a house for his family!"

Lin Mo narrowed his eyes, blocking out the violence in them, and said in a cold voice: "What happened today? Why did they start a quarrel?"

Lin Wu immediately bared his teeth and said angrily: "It's because they are greedy. Speaking of this, I am really angry today! In the afternoon, Awen was eating cakes in the house. When A'na came over, she saw it and insisted that Awen give it to her.

If she wasn't given it to her, she would try to snatch it away. When she couldn't snatch it away from Awen, she would hit others. It was Brother Mu who heard the noise and ran out to pull her away. Relying on his age, Brother Mu didn't dare to fight back, so she joined in the beating of Brother Mu.

I'm so angry! If she wasn't our father's biological mother, I really want to beat her to death!"

Lin Wu spoke more and more, and at the end he started waving his hands and feet, and he looked as if he was about to hit someone in the next second.

"Then beat them. I'll take the blame even if they're crippled. Even if it's our grandma, so what? We brothers don't study or take exams, so we don't care about the reputation of being filial or not. Besides, they were the ones who bullied us first, so we're not wrong!"

Lin Mo's words were very realistic. In this world, people who take the imperial examinations attach great importance to filial piety and integrity.

In addition to being well-read and possessing a wide range of knowledge, scholars also pay great attention to their reputation, although farmers also care about having filial sons and well-behaved grandsons.

But in Lin Mo's opinion, since no one in their family wants to pursue a career in school, there is no need to maintain the so-called reputation of filial piety, so it doesn't matter if they really break up with the Lin family's old house.

After pondering for a moment, Lin Mo continued, "Our family will definitely get better and better in the future. Now they can't sit still just because we built a house. I can't guarantee that they will be even greedier in the future.

If something as outrageous as today happens again, we should just break off the relationship so that we don’t have to explain ourselves later when things get ugly.”

Lin Sheng was shocked and said in surprise, "Breaking off the relationship?"

Lin Mo nodded. He could understand Lin Sheng's reluctance to leave the old house. Although the people in the old house were not kind to the Lin brothers, they grew up in the Lin family old house since childhood, and subconsciously they always felt reluctant and dependent on it.

He was just giving them a heads-up by saying he was breaking off the relationship. Judging from the bad habits of that family, there would probably be a lot of trouble in the future.

"Brother, Xiao Wu, don't think too much. We were abandoned by the old house. From the moment they kicked us out, no...or rather, from the moment Grandpa passed away, the old house was no longer the same one we used to live in."

Lin Sheng and Lin Wu looked at each other, their eyes filled with unspeakable melancholy and sadness.

As the eldest brother, Lin Sheng naturally knew about these things a long time ago, but when Lin Mo pointed them out, the thought in his heart was completely shattered.

He said in a low voice: "Amo is right. Since you have ignored us for so many years, now we just need to do our duty."

Lin Wu nodded heavily: "Yes! Apart from the food and support for grandma, we don't have to worry about anything else!"

A few people looked at each other and nodded, and this annoying thing was over.

The three brothers chatted for a while, talked about each other's recent situation, and then went their separate ways.

**

Lin Mo pulled Su Mu to sit in the yard. He looked at him carefully. The swelling on his face had gradually dissipated under the effect of the ointment.

He looked Su Mu up and down. After not seeing him for a few days, the little guy looked much more energetic and seemed to have gained a lot of weight.

"This is the gift I bought for you when I came back this time. Look." Lin Mo took it out carefully from his arms. It was two small sugar figures, one was Lin Mo and the other was Su Mu. In order not to crush the small sugar figures, he wrapped them with several layers of gauze.

Su Mu's eyes flickered as he carefully took the candy figure. He looked at it, feeling warm inside. However, he had nothing to give to Lin Mo. He looked a little embarrassed. "Sorry... I don't have anything prepared for you."

"You have..." Lin Mo looked at him with a smile. To him, Su Mu was the most precious gift, the one and only.

"What?" Su Mu looked up blankly, only to find Lin Mo's eyes sparkling, which made him feel a little uncomfortable. He couldn't move forward or backward while holding the candy man.

"That's you! As long as you are well and don't let anyone bully you anymore, this is the best gift."

Lin Mo tapped Su Mu's tall nose and said in a sly tone, "Of course, I'd be even happier if you could marry me sooner!"

Su Mu's face flushed, and he nodded slightly with a smile on his face. Looking at Lin Mo who was laughing so wildly, he felt his heartbeat was a little abnormal.

The sugar man in his mouth was obviously too sweet to be cloying, but he felt that the sweetness in his heart was even more cloying than the sugar man.
