Who is it?
Upon hearing the knocking, an impatient voice came from inside.
The gate opened, and Lin Fugui was holding a chipped bowl. When he saw Lin Huowang at the gate, he was taken aback at first, but then his eyes lit up when he saw the brand-new jeep behind him and Lin Huowang’s extraordinary demeanor.
"Ah... Ah Wang?"
He excitedly dropped the bowl he was holding, then rubbed his hands together and rushed over excitedly, "Oh! My good son! You're finally back! Dad... Dad has missed you so much!"
His gaze was fixed on Lin Huowang, without even glancing at Lin's mother and Lin Xiaoxue beside him.
Lin Huowang laughed, a laugh that was incredibly "affectionate".
The fact that a jeep entered the village was no small matter in those days, and many villagers from Linyuanzhuang had already gathered around to watch the spectacle.
With these people as witnesses, Lin Huowang should play the role of a "promising" and "filial son" even better.
"Father!"
He held Lin Fugui's hand affectionately, appearing filial, and said:
"Dad, look at me! I can make money now, I'm successful! That's why I'm coming back right away to take you to Linjiagou to enjoy a good life!"
"Really?!" Lin Fugui's mouth almost watered when he heard this.
The surrounding villagers also started talking about it, envying Lin Fugui's incredible luck! The widow and orphan they abandoned years ago have now become so successful, and it's said that he's the one who started the dragonfish farming industry in the entire Baishan County. How could the country not reward such a talent? How could he not be a cadre?
Putting everything else aside, the fact that he travels in just this Jeep is enough to demonstrate Lin Huowang's status and position.
If Lin Fugui really goes with Lin Huowang, he'll definitely be living a life of luxury.
"Of course it's true!"
Lin Huowang pointed at the jeep and patted his chest, saying, "From now on, you'll live in a new tiled house, and I'll feed you meat every day! I'll take care of you in your old age and see you off when you die!"
"Great! Great!" Lin Fugui was so excited that he felt like he was dreaming.
"but……"
Lin Huowang changed the subject, feigning difficulty as he looked around the courtyard. "However... as you know, my mother... has some issues. You see... if you want to come with me and enjoy a better life, you have to completely sever ties with your current family. Only then will we be family, don't you agree?"
Who is Lin Fugui? Hearing this, I understood instantly!
Without the slightest hesitation, just like in his past life, he agreed without thinking.
“I understand! I understand! I’ve had enough of this woman! I’m divorcing her right now! Ah Wang, don’t worry, I’ll live with you from now on! I’m cutting all ties with this family!”
"Lin Fugui! You damned, despicable bastard!"
No sooner had Lin Fugui finished speaking than a loud roar came from inside the house.
A woman with an extremely burly build and a face full of scars rushed out carrying a kitchen knife, followed by several of her big, burly brothers.
"Well done, Lin Fugui!"
Lin Fugui's current wife, Fu Xiaofeng, was trembling with rage. "You heartless bastard! You ate at our house! You lived in our house! Now that your ex-wife's son has made it big, you just want to walk away?!"
She turned her head again and glared fiercely at Lin Huowang's family: "And you shameless bunch! You've already been divorced, so don't even think about stealing my husband! Let me tell you, Lin Fugui has entered our family, he's a member of our family in life and in death! He has nothing to do with your family anymore!"
Lin Fugui shrank back in fear: "You...you shrew! I'm going with Awang! He's my son! You don't want a good life, but I do! My son just said he'd take me there and feed me meat every day! I'm not afraid of you...I have my son, he's a government official now, do you dare touch me?"
Sure enough, after being intimidated by Lin Fugui, especially after he brought up Lin Huowang's status as a state cadre, not only the fierce Fu Xiaofeng, but also her brothers hesitated and stopped.
These days, rural people may be tough and fierce, but they still feel cautious and wary when they hear the word "cadre".
Needless to say, Lin Huowang was an official who could drive a Jeep to the countryside; even the township head didn't have a Jeep! What does that mean? It means that Lin Huowang was definitely higher in rank than the township head.
Seeing that the men were intimidated, Lin Fugui became even more smug and said, "With my son backing me up from now on, you old woman, you think you can bully me? In your next life! I've had enough of you. If it weren't for your brothers being here, I would have divorced you and remarried long ago. Damn it, now that I have my son, what can you do to me?"
Indeed, the widow that Lin Fugui later married was initially chosen because she was strong, capable, and fertile. However, he later discovered that this woman was far too fierce, exploiting and abusing him in various ways. She even brought over several of her brothers and directly occupied the Lin family's ancestral home. Lin Fugui dared not speak out against her anger!
Now everything's alright! His son has made something of himself, and Lin Fugui feels that he's finally made it through the tough times in his life and will never have to put up with this awful behavior again.
So he started chattering away, venting all the dissatisfaction and anger he had accumulated over the years.
"What? Say something, will you? Heh heh! I'll divorce you right now, so what if I give you this shabby house? I'll have a new house to live in, and a filial son. From now on, everyone who sees me will have to respectfully call me Old Master Lin!"
