"I said I was going out fishing today, but it started raining."

Early in the morning on the 26th, Lin Heng got up, opened the mahogany wooden window and looked out, feeling a little speechless.

It was raining heavily outside. When I woke up in the morning, I could hear the sound of rain through the window. It was pouring non-stop.

"Then let's wait for two days. After the rain stops, we can pick chanterelles." Xiulan said with a smile.

Lin Heng nodded and said, "Yes, it's the same if I rest at home."

After getting up today, he drank tea and read books at home, and wrote diaries and novels. His novel is almost finished, and it is a novella of more than 100,000 words.

The content is rural realism, incorporating some of his insights into life. He doesn't know whether it is good or not, he just wants to write it and may not publish it.

The two sons are running around everywhere now and it is impossible to catch up with them. Fortunately, all the dangerous places in the house have been cordoned off, so even if they fall, they will not be seriously injured.

At noon, his aunt Zhang Gaolian came to visit with a big belly and discussed with Xiulan about making clothes for the children. Lin Heng took the children to doodle, draw and play with toys.

It was very hot in June, and the rain just brought some coolness. But I didn’t expect it to rain for three days in a row.

After the rain stopped, Xiulan, Lin's mother and others wanted to go up the mountain to pick mushrooms. Lin Heng took care of the children at home for a day, and went to pick mushrooms with Xiulan the next day.

When the weather was fine, his elder brother and uncle would try to go hunting every day. Lin Heng also wanted to go but had no time. He was teaching his parents how to grow grapes and fruits, and he also cultivated the apple orchard. Each apple tree only had a small amount of fruit because the trees were not fully grown yet.

However, under his care, the apple trees were successfully dwarfed, without growing too tall, and the fruiting branches were also very good.

Although he did not go hunting, he still went fishing twice. Once with Lin's father, they went fishing for big fish, and once with Xiulan, they went fishing for small fish while having fun.

Everything has temporarily stabilized at Hongfeng Mountain. Every day, Lin's father and mother just feed the shrimps, cattle and sheep, and do some other trivial things.

Compared to before, these jobs are easier and the final profits are better.

There is basically nothing to do in the fields, just a little corn, the rest is rice, and other fruits and vegetables.

The saplings that had been grafted earlier all survived, and Lin Heng took advantage of the rain to find a suitable piece of land for transplanting.

Early in the morning on July 1st, Lin Heng called his eldest brother to go to the city together.

There are two things to do when going to the city this time. The first thing is to go to the city to buy feed for feeding the shrimps.

The second thing was that he learned to drive and found a way. He said that he had learned it before and went directly to study and take the exam.

If nothing goes wrong, he will be able to get his driver's license in about a month.

After staying down there for three days and getting things done, Lin Heng transported the shrimp feed back.

After staying there for a few days, he came down again. Apart from taking the driver's license test, he also looked for bricklayers to repair the factory.

First, the factory building that was leaking was repaired, and then the walls inside and out were painted, with cement and plaster applied. It no longer looked as shabby as before.

He passed the truck driving test very quickly. He already knew how to drive, but now he was just pretending not to know how to drive and was learning again.

And he also used money to pave the way, so the test was not difficult at all.

On July 21, the second day after Lin Heng returned home, Lin Heng was discussing with Xiulan about going to Hongfeng Mountain early in the morning when his uncle pushed the door and walked in.

He looked at Lin Heng and the other man and said, "Lin Heng, are you free today? Send your aunt down there. She should be giving birth in the next two days."

"Okay." Lin Heng nodded in agreement and asked, "Are we leaving now?"

"Have your breakfast and then leave." Lu Honghai said.

"After eating, let my aunt and grandmother clean up. We'll be leaving soon."

Lin Heng nodded and said.

"Okay." Lu Honghai nodded, turned and left.

Lin Heng looked at Xiulan helplessly and said, "I have to go to the city again. I guess I have to wait until they have given birth and come back together."

"It's okay, just be careful." Xiulan shook her head and said.

This kind of thing is unavoidable. My uncle is very good to them. Now that he needs help, I can't refuse.

Lin Heng went back and told his daughter that Xiaoxia didn't want to let her go, but after some consolation she finally agreed.

After getting ready, Lin Heng drove out on his sidecar, and his uncle and his mother-in-law went out with him.

Lin Heng drove the three people smoothly down the hill. The journey usually took two hours, but it took several hours with a pregnant woman.

When we got to the city, we directly arranged for my aunt Zhang Gaolian to be hospitalized. It was actually quite dangerous for her to give birth to a child when she was in her thirties.

After completing the hospitalization procedures, Lin Heng stayed here for a while and then left, going to the city to do some business.

He recently came up with a new way to raise money and is preparing for it.

Early in the morning on the 23rd, when he arrived, my aunt had already entered the delivery room. Although she was old, she completed the delivery smoothly.

"It's a boy, Hong Hai, you have a son."

Accompanied by a loud cry in the delivery room, Lu Honghai's mother-in-law came out and congratulated him.

“I have a son!!”

Lu Honghai was so excited that he was stunned for a moment, and then he burst into laughter and couldn't stop laughing.

"I really have a son."

He still couldn't believe it. He thought he would be childless and live alone for the rest of his life. He never thought that he would have a wife or offspring.

"Congratulations, uncle." Lin Heng smiled and patted his uncle's shoulder, indicating that he could enter the delivery room.

"Well, my good nephew, I want to thank you very much." Lu Honghai patted Lin Heng's shoulder and said.

Then everyone walked into the delivery room together. The baby was still a little wrinkled, but he would become beautiful in a short while.

Lu Honghai was so happy looking at the child that he could hardly help himself. He was a traditional man and attached great importance to passing on the family line.

Now that I have a son, how can I make him unhappy?

"Uncle, I suggest that you stay in the hospital for a few more days. This will be good for my aunt and the children." Lin Heng said to the two of them.

"Or if you think the hospital is not enough, you can rent a house nearby for a few days. If anything happens, you can come to the hospital for treatment in time." Lin Heng suggested.

"Rent a house. I'll go out and see where I can rent a house." Lu Honghai nodded. He didn't want anything to happen to his son after giving birth to him.

"I'll take you to see it later." Lin Heng nodded.

He looked here for a while and then went out to buy some food. In the afternoon, Lin Heng took his uncle to look at houses and found a decent one to rent for half a month.

They were resting and recuperating and raising their baby, and Lin Heng went back several times to report their safety and specific circumstances.

This is also great news for parents.

Later he went into the city again, and on the 28th he successfully obtained his driver's license and was able to drive a truck.

After getting his driver's license, he went home and couldn't wait to share it with Xiulan: "Look, I can drive a big car on the road openly from now on."

"Great!" Xiulan praised, took the driver's license and looked at it curiously, then raised her head and asked, "Honey, when are you going to buy a truck? Is it going to be at least 40,000 or 50,000?"

Lin Heng held her hand and said with a smile: "Not only do I want to buy a truck, I am also planning to open a feed factory. This may use up all the money in the family, and I will have to sell all the good things. I may even need a loan to open it, but once it is opened, it will definitely make money."

They were now sitting in the backyard. The sunlight had disappeared in the afternoon. The lotus flowers were blooming in the pond and the lilies by the wall were emitting a faint fragrance.

Xiulan looked at Lin Heng with eyes wide open and smiled, "If you want to do it, then do it. At worst, we can start over again. We still have shrimps and cattle and sheep."

She has the courage to start over with Lin Heng. As long as Lin Heng is there, she doesn't think it's a big deal even if she returns to the life she had three years ago.

"I have got my driver's license now. If I prepare a little more in a few days, I might be able to make some more money." Lin Heng said with a smile.

"Then how about we cook a delicious meal tonight and invite our parents over to celebrate?" Xiulan asked with a smile.

"Of course, we have to have a big meal." Lin Heng said with a smile.

"Great, let's have a big meal!" Xiaoxia stopped watching the turtle with her brothers and ran over to cheer.

"OK!"

The latest novel is published first on Liu9shuba!

"OK!"

The two little ones also cheered and called out in baby voices, imitating their sister.

Ever since they learned to walk, Lin Heng no longer let Xiulan hold them too much. It is good for children to run and play more, which not only enhances their immunity and makes them less likely to get sick, but is also beneficial to their growth.

Holding a child in your arms too much to care for him/her is not a good behavior. Adults just need to watch from the side and provide correct guidance.

"Yes, a big meal, all of it!"

Lin Heng said with a smile. He hugged Xiaoxia first, and then hugged his two sons.

"Dad, I want more!"

"Give the bird back, give the bird back!"

"Give me back the bird!"

The children were very enthusiastic about being lifted up high. They would continue even after Lin Heng fed them. They liked it most when Lin Heng threw them up and then caught them.

"Okay! Let's do it again."

Lin Heng took them out to play again, and then he and Xiulan took the three of them to Red Maple Mountain and informed their parents that he had obtained his driver's license.

However, he did not tell his parents about his plan to open a feed factory. He planned to tell them after the business was successful, otherwise they would be scared.

"This is good news. Caiyun's results are out too. She did very well and ranked among the top 300 in the city. Let's celebrate together." Lin Yue shouted with a smile.

"Top 300 in the city! Caiyun, you are really awesome!" Lin Heng looked at Caiyun, a little shocked.

The teaching quality in Huangtan Town is very average. The fact that I was able to rank among the top 300 in the city is entirely due to my own hard work and talent.

"I finally got the opportunity to study, so of course I have to study hard to live up to my family." Caiyun said with a smile. In order to get good grades, she really worked hard to study and almost never put down her books.

Because the opportunity to study again is so hard to come by, she must seize it and not let her second brother down.

"Don't think too much. Study hard. Your grades are good enough for you to go to the No. 1 Middle School in the city. I'll send you there in September."

Lin Heng patted his shoulder and said with a smile.

"It doesn't matter which school I go to. You don't have to worry too much about me, brother." Caiyun said sensibly.

"By the way, what are Liu Ciwen's grades?" Lin Heng asked again.

"He did better than me. He ranked 209th in the city, and I ranked 251st," said Caiyun.

"This kid can't see that his father and mother are one stupid and the other dumb, but he is so smart." Father Lin sighed.

“If we tell others about this, I guess no one in the village will believe it,” Lin’s mother also said.

"This may be a gifted talent." Lin Heng said with a smile. He plans to find time to have a good chat with Liu Ciwen and sponsor him to go to high school and college.

Anyone who works hard to change his or her own destiny is worthy of admiration, and he is willing to lend a helping hand.

After chatting, Lin Heng and Xiulan took their three children to the mountain to play along the cement road, and Caiyun followed them.

There were thorny roses during this period, the black kind, and there was a large cluster on the hillside. I took the children there and ate as many as I could.

"Apart from being a little smaller in size, the taste and texture of this thing are very good." Xiulan said while feeding the child.

"That's why we have strawberries, but unfortunately they are out of season now." Lin Heng sighed.

After eating some rose hips, they went up the mountain again. The ginseng in the ginseng garden had bloomed beautiful flowers, and bees were buzzing around to help with pollination.

This box of bees in the ginseng garden center swarmed this year, and he successfully expanded another bee colony.

After taking a look, he went back to the cabin. He came here from time to time this year, and everywhere was cleaned very well. Some of the unsightly trees nearby were also removed.

The children were playing in front of and behind the house. Lin Heng boiled a pot of water for tea. After drinking his morning tea, he took his fishing rod to the nearby reservoir and caught two plum fish weighing more than one kilogram. He steamed them for dinner in the evening.

In the evening, Xiulan cooked a table full of delicious food. Lin Heng called his parents and his eldest brother's family to have a good meal.

"Brother, I'm planning to go to Ancheng again soon. Are you free? Come with me. I'm planning to find someone else when the time comes. It will be safer for the three of us to go together."

After drinking a glass of wine, Lin Heng looked at his elder brother and said.

Lin Yue smiled and nodded: "Yes, I have finished growing kiwi fruits and vegetables recently, and I have also added the growth enhancer you gave me. There is nothing else to do. I usually just go hunting. There is nothing else to do."

"That's good, I'll call you when the time comes." Lin Heng said with a smile.

It was already dark after the meal, and after cleaning up the dishes, Lin Heng went to bed early.

The children had played all day, and they fell asleep in the middle of a story he was telling them, without any need to comfort them.

The next morning, he did not go into the city, but went to visit his family's vineyard and apple orchard, and also took a look at his eldest brother's kiwi fruit.

There are basically no problems with the trellis we built this year. The grape kiwis on the branches are already very big and are not far from ripening.

After reading all this, Lin Heng turned around and went home. As soon as he entered the house and sat down, there was a knock on the door.

The village party secretary called out from outside: "Lin Heng, are you in the house?"

"I'm here." Lin Heng quickly invited the man into the house and gave him some tea.

He was somewhat curious as to why the village party secretary came here at this time, but he did not take the initiative to ask.

"Your business has been growing bigger and bigger recently, and your assets are increasing rapidly." Tian Dongfu looked at him and said with a smile.

He didn't express his intention at the first time. (End of this chapter)
