Chapter 227 Xie Hanchuan is the Best Son-in-Law Choice
He also thought Xie Hanchuan was a good person, and if Lin Luoxi liked him too, then the two of them being together would be a good thing.
Don't let Xie Hanchuan's current single status fool you; it's precisely because of this that he's unlikely to have any conflicts with his mother-in-law, sisters-in-law, or other relatives.
Lin Jize has seen too many troubles with Lin Jiyong's family and sincerely doesn't want Lin Luoxi to marry into such a complicated family.
And then there's this gossipy master beside him. He's got the wealth and status, but he really doesn't want Lin Luoxi to like his master. Marrying into a wealthy family isn't as simple as ordinary people think.
How many young girls, in the prime of their lives, are trapped within the high walls of wealthy families and die young...
The more things you see, the more you yearn for an ordinary, simple life.
"General Lin, you seem to be dissatisfied with me?" Sensing the implication in Lin Jize's words, Xiao Jingchen narrowed his eyes and looked at Lin Jize.
"No, Master, you're overthinking it!" Damn it, if it weren't for the fact that Xiao Jingchen was his master, he would have really wanted to chase him away with a broom.
She stayed in his house and even tried to threaten him with her power. I should have known better than to bring the maid to rescue him.
No matter what Lin Jize thought about Xiao Jingchen, he didn't dare show it on his face.
"Oh, that's good. I thought General Lin wouldn't welcome me to your home for recuperation." Seeing Lin Jize's angry but unable-to-speak expression, Xiao Jingchen continued his meal in a very good mood.
"Hmm, the food in the countryside is still the best. It's actually quite to my liking."
"If I had known that General Lin's food was so delicious, I should have come here to recuperate sooner. Maybe I would have recovered by now." Xiao Jingchen, seemingly innocent but actually cunning, was afraid that Lin Jize would be in a good mood, so he added two more insults.
Lin Jize was so angry that he almost broke the chopsticks in his hand.
He's really messing things up by inviting back some kind of ancestor. He's not happy at all right now.
"You guys eat slowly, I'm full, I'm going out for a walk." Seeing Xiao Jingchen eating so heartily, Lin Jize really lost his appetite, put down his chopsticks and went out.
“Master, why are you making General Lin so angry? Look how upset he is, he can’t even eat…” Ji Feng couldn’t stand it anymore and couldn’t help but speak up for Lin Jize.
They're still living under someone else's roof, so they should probably behave themselves.
"What, you're full too?" This little bit of food won't be enough to make people angry and leave.
That guy didn't run away in anger; he clearly went next door to freeload a meal.
"No, I'm not full yet." When Ji Feng saw his master trying to push the plate of food towards him, he knew his master was doing it on purpose, so he immediately shook his head and quickly ate his rice.
It's good that my fellow Daoist died but I didn't. Besides, that fellow Daoist won't starve to death.
Seeing that Ji Feng wasn't fooled, Xiao Jingchen rolled his eyes and continued to eat his food elegantly.
My God, this is so delicious! General Lin is really going too far. They get to eat such fragrant food every day. Why didn't he tell them to move here to recuperate sooner?
Lin Jize was unaware that he was so angry that he couldn't eat, and he was also being scolded by Xiao Jingchen.
"Nephew Dayou, are you home?" Lin Jize, who had just come out of his own house, rubbed his empty stomach and reluctantly turned into the Lin family's courtyard.
"Hey, Uncle, have you eaten?" Lin Dayou was quite surprised to see Lin Jize appear at his house.
In Lin Dayou's memory, Lin Jize visited his home very few times.
Previously, Lin Dayou saw that Lin Jize was all alone, so he suggested that reporter Lin come and live with them, but Lin Jize refused.
The reason is that Lin Jiyong's family is not like that. If he, a vegetarian, were to come and live with them, his parents, Lin Jiyong and his family, would definitely cling to him like leeches.
Lin Dayou's family was already living in poverty. If that scoundrel family were to cling to them, they would be unable to shake them off. Therefore, Lin Jize rarely came to Lin Dayou's house unless absolutely necessary.
"I'm not full, that's why I came over to freeload." Now that Lin Dayou's family is getting better and better because of Luo Xi, Lin Jize is no longer polite and directly says that he is not full.
"Huh?" Lin Dayou had never seen Lin Jize so direct before, and for a moment he was still not able to react.
"Grandpa, sit down, I'll get you some rice right away." Lin Luoning stood up and invited Lin Jize to come in and eat.
"The Lin family's daughter is definitely more clever and quick-witted." Looking at Lin Dayou, who seemed like a dimwit, Lin Ji glanced at him with disdain, walked past him, and headed towards Lin Luoning.
"Uncle, please sit here." Seeing the look of disdain in Lin Jize's eyes, Lin Wangshi couldn't help but laugh. When she saw Lin Jize come in, she quickly offered him a seat.
"Niece-in-law, no need to be so polite, I'll sit here." With that, she plopped down in Lin Dayou's seat.
Holding the food that Lin Luoning had prepared, they began to eat, enjoying the food on the stove.
"What are you standing there for? Hurry up and come eat. After you're full, go see if Luo Xi needs any help." What a simpleton! If it weren't for Luo Xi, this family probably wouldn't be able to get up. Sigh, what a worrying thing.
"Oh, I'll be right there." Hearing Lin Jize's disdainful tone, Lin Dayou didn't dare to say another word, only feeling that the words sounded very familiar.
Yes, just like just now, he complained that his son lacked common sense.
It seems that the gene for favoring girls over boys is hereditary.
No, he's not from the Lin family. Rather, it's more accurate to say that the preference for daughters over sons is contagious.
Lin Dayou never expected that he would be disliked, but it should be said that he has always been disliked.
However, during this period, the Lin family was severely disciplined by their daughter and stopped causing trouble, which is why he was not disliked by his wife and children.
No matter how miserable Lin Dayou felt inside, he could only put on a smile, sit next to Lin Jize, and have lunch with him.
"Hurry up, stop dawdling over your food." Lin Jize had already put down his chopsticks, but seeing Lin Da still eating, he started to complain again.
"If we wait for you to help, Luo Xi will have finished everything by then." Lin Jize couldn't bear to watch Lin Dayou still frantically shoveling rice into his mouth.
"Okay, okay, I'm coming right away." What did he do to deserve this? He can't even enjoy a meal in peace.
But in order to avoid Lin Jize continuing to complain, he could only quickly shovel the rice into his mouth, put down his chopsticks, and jog after Lin Jize, walking towards Lin Luoxi's direction.
Lin Luoxi's side———
"Brother Hanchuan, you're here?" Lin Luoxi, who was directing the bandits to move things from the cave where Meng Huai'an used to live, greeted Xie Hanchuan with a smile when she saw him coming.
"Well, I heard you were back when I got back, so I came up to see if there was anything I could help with." Xie Hanchuan looked at Lin Luoxi and, finding nothing wrong with her, turned to look at the hundred or so people in front of him.
