Shortly after the two arrived home, the eldest brother received news that his younger brother and sister had returned empty-handed that afternoon, and that his sister had even been slapped twice by their grandmother. The siblings had been trying to get revenge.

"Second brother, what do we do now? The old woman is getting more and more difficult to deal with."

Lin Xiaomei no longer bothered to call her "Mom." She was no longer her mother. Once she got the money, she wouldn't pay any attention to that old hag.

Looking at the bloodthirsty and indignant expressions on the faces of his siblings, Lin Lao Er's face also flashed with a hint of ruthlessness.

"Then let's just go and take back what belongs to us."

How do I get it back?

"We'll do it like this..."

The siblings huddled together, whispering amongst themselves. The dim light cast their shadows on the wall, making them look like a few ruthless wolves.

"Alright, let's do it according to the second brother's plan. Everyone, cooperate well tomorrow! We must get the old woman's money!"

The younger siblings all nodded in agreement!

When Lin returned to the bedroom, his wife looked at his slightly excited face, bit off the thread with her teeth, put the mended clothes on the bed, and looked at him with hope in her eyes.

"Have you reached an agreement?"

"It's settled then. Tomorrow, you and your second son's wife will hold onto the old woman and do whatever it takes to prevent her from going home early."

"This is easy, leave it to me!"

"Let's turn off the lights and go to sleep. We still have a lot to do tomorrow!"

After blowing out the kerosene lamp, the two lay down on the bed and fell asleep...

On the other side, Lin Li and Lin Laosan returned to the courtyard. After opening the gate, they looked around and found nothing unusual. It seemed they hadn't had time to make a move today.

After turning around and locking the courtyard gate, he led Lin Laosan to the main room.

After looking around again and locking the door, the mother and son excitedly took out the money and bills they had earned that day after Lin Laosan lit the kerosene lamp.

"Mom, I earned nearly a hundred yuan today. That's equivalent to two months' salary for most people."

Lin Laosan's face flushed with excitement, and he was beaming with joy.

Lin Li patted his hand, took out twenty yuan, and stuffed it into his hand. "Keep this money safe. You're a grown man; you can't be without any money on you."

"Mom, I don't need it. I'll have a job tomorrow, and I'll give you all my wages when I get paid!" Lin Laosan handed the money back to Lin Li.

Looking at the returned money, Lin Li's eyes crinkled with laughter. In Boss Lin's memory, those ungrateful wretches never returned the money they were given; in fact, they would complain that the money given was too little.

"Just take it. Do you think Mom is someone who's short of money?"

Lin Laosan scratched his head and grinned sheepishly, then sheepishly put the money into his pocket.

After Lin Li saw that he had finally put the money away, she took out a bottle of milk from her space and handed it to him, saying, "Starting today, you must drink a bottle of milk every morning and evening so that your body will be strong."

This time, Lin Laosan didn't refuse either. He opened the milk cap and started drinking. "This milk is so sweet and delicious!"

Lin Li looked at the white ring around his lips and smiled, "You can drink it like water if you like, there's plenty of milk at home."

After hearing Lin Li say that, and remembering what his mother had said these past few days—that he could ask her any questions he had—Lin Laosan looked at Lin Li's smiling face and asked, "Mom, since business is so good, why did you tell them today that you won't be selling tomorrow?"

Hearing Lin Laosan's words, Lin Li patted his hand with satisfaction, "I also want to sell, but I don't dare to. Think about it, where would I get all this milk, eggs, and duck eggs every day? If they investigate, wouldn't I be exposed?"

Lin Li was also very frustrated. Business was too good, which was also a problem. If she couldn't explain the source of the goods, she was afraid that she would be used as a 'test subject'. The main problem was those few ingrates who were watching her closely. Those black-hearted beasts had no conscience. As long as they caught her in any way, they would definitely kill her.

The path to wealth that she had finally found had been cut off. Lin Li felt a tightness in her chest whenever she thought about it, and took a deep breath.

Don't be angry, don't be angry. Getting angry will only make you unhappy, and it will also hurt everyone else. She is an old lady who is determined to live to be 100 years old!

"Okay, it's alright, I'll support you when I get a salary!"

Seeing Lin Li taking deep breaths, Lin Laosan knew she was in a bad mood and quickly comforted her.

"Okay, from now on, Lao San will take care of me." Lin Li found it amusing to see Lao San's face turn red and his expression become excited after hearing this.

Lin Lao Er would turn pale at the mere mention of bringing money home to support his mother, let alone asking him to do so. Lin Lao San, on the other hand, was so excited when he heard that Lin Li was willing to let him support her that his face turned rosy – that's the difference.

"Alright, go wash up and get some rest. You have to report to the power company first thing tomorrow morning."

"Okay, I've prepared water for you to wash your face and feet, then you can go and rest."

After saying that, Lin Laosan opened the door of the guest room, went to the kitchen, lit the stove, and started boiling water.

Thirty minutes later, he came in carrying steaming hot water to wash his face. "Mom, you wash your face first, I'll bring the water for washing your feet right away."

Lin Li had just finished washing her face when she saw Lin Laosan carrying in a newly bought ceramic basin with water.

"Mom, soak your feet in hot water while they're still warm; it will help relieve fatigue."

"good!"

Lin Li sat on the bed, and just as she was about to take off her shoes and wash her feet, she saw Lin Laosan quickly help her take off her shoes and socks and wash them carefully.

Good son!

After enjoying the parent-child interactive program, Lin Laosan helped her pour out the foot bath water and instructed, "You should also use the new ceramic basin, okay?"

"Alright!"

After Lin Laosan helped Lin Li close the door, she blew out the kerosene lamp and lay down on the bed. The only bad thing about this era was that there were no entertainment programs, and there was nothing to do at night except stare at the sky.

This is the place that Lin Li, who is used to nightlife, finds the most difficult to adjust to.

Let's go check out the space. We can't sell milk and eggs right now, so we need to use the resources in the space to make a fortune!

After entering the space, I saw that the warehouse was almost full. After clearing out the excess items in the warehouse, I was prompted that I could upgrade.

After clicking the upgrade button, the shopping mall transaction system appeared.

After opening the shop, many items appeared. Lin Li scrolled down and saw that there were quite a few skill books. She clicked on the descriptions:

[Cookbook: From Simple to Advanced, You'll Learn by Doing It!]

[The Sewing Book: A Guide to Reaching the Pinnacle of Your Career.]

[Design Guide: You Could Be the Next Genius!]

...

Looking at the bunch of all sorts of ridiculous and unserious explanations, Lin Li was speechless!

Is the way you're opening this store wrong? Why do the book descriptions seem so absurd?

After checking her gold coins after the upgrade, she realized she only had enough to buy one skill book. After thinking for a long time, Lin Li shakily clicked the button for the cooking book!
