Lin Chuan quickly wiped his hands and went out to greet them.
When Feng Liang saw that it was Lin Chuan who came out of the door, he slapped his thigh and was very happy.
"Da Chuan, I've finally found you."
"Brother Liang, what brings you here?" Lin Chuan asked as he led his men into the east room.
He moved a stool for Feng Liang, "Brother Liang, sit down."
Feng Liang arrived by bicycle; it was quite cold that morning.
Lin Chuan poured him a glass of water and handed it to him.
“Da Chuan, I know it’s not a good time to come to you, after all, your sister-in-law is still in her postpartum period, and you might be able to get away, but I had a fight with your sister-in-law, and she won’t come to the shop. The shop was closed yesterday, and if this continues, I won’t be able to keep the shop open.” Feng Liang sighed twice as he spoke.
"Da Chuan, could you come to the store and help me out for a few days? I'll give you the same commission as last time, and I'll even add five yuan a day for you."
Feng Liang was really having a headache.
The storefront he owns now was left to him by his parents.
After the policies were relaxed in the past two years, he started thinking about what to do. He then discussed with his wife about opening a noodle shop, since their location was good and the two of them could manage it.
The noodle shop was up and running, and he made a little money, but his wife's family kept coming over to freeload.
His wife sends money to her parents' home every few days.
To be honest, it's a small business, and they barely make as much as they give away. Besides, they have two children at home who need to make a living.
But his wife didn't think so at all.
Lin Chuan's mind raced upon hearing Feng Liang's words.
Making money is definitely a must, and doing business is also essential.
He originally planned to wait until things at home settled down before figuring out how to set up a stall.
No matter what, we have to get started first.
Now that Feng Liang has come looking for us, it's not a bad idea to work a few more days. At least we can save up some capital and steadily improve our family's situation.
"Brother Liang, please have a seat. I'll go and discuss this with my wife."
Upon hearing this, Feng Liang thought, "This is promising!"
Otherwise, his wife would think that without her, the shop wouldn't be able to stay open.
His wife is still waiting for him to go to her parents' house to beg him, but this time he's determined not to go!
Because Feng Liang arrived, Xu Chunmai also woke up.
Qian Jinhua also went to the west room with Lin Chuan.
"Da Chuan, isn't this job exhausting?" Qian Jinhua wondered. "Otherwise, where would you find such a good thing as a windfall, where could you earn so much money?"
Xu Chunmai also looked at Lin Chuan with a worried expression.
Lin Chuan said, "I'm not tired. I just helped cook noodles. I did some work the other day, didn't I? I look pretty good, don't I?"
Xu Chunmai and Qian Jinhua thought about it and realized it made sense.
Lin Chuan continued, "I was wondering what would happen to Chunmai and the kids while I was away..."
Before he could finish speaking, Qian Jinhua said, "If you have a way to make money, then hurry up and get busy with that. Chunmai and the children are at home; your father and I can manage them."
Xu Chunmai nodded and said, "Dachuan, just go and do your own thing. I'm fine, and my parents can help me. I definitely won't cause you any trouble."
Lin Chuan was deeply moved. "Mother, Chunmai, I will definitely work hard and earn more money!"
After everything was settled, Lin Chuan told Feng Liang, "Brother Liang, I can go today, but I'll be a little late. I have something to take care of later."
Feng Liang was full of energy. "Okay, Da Chuan, just tell me what time you'll be arriving?"
Lin Chuan pondered, "It'll probably be ten o'clock by then, so there's definitely no time to make braised meat and chicken soup."
Feng Liang waved his hand, "That's alright, let's sell vegetarian noodles first, and we'll sell them later when they're ready."
"Da Chuan, I'll go back and prepare now. I'll go make ramen and bring back some meat."
Lin Chuan invited Feng Liang to stay for breakfast, but he declined, eager to get back to work.
After breakfast, Lin Chuan tidied himself up and went out.
He first went to Yuquan Village.
Early this morning, Lin Qingyou's family was also having breakfast.
Everyone got up when they saw Lin Chuan arrive.
Zheng Yumei was overjoyed. "Dachuan, you're here so early. Haven't eaten yet? Sit down and have a bowl of porridge."
Lin Ping quickly pulled over a stool.
Lin Chuan sat down. "I've already eaten."
As he spoke, he took out his household registration booklet from his pocket and stuffed it into Zheng Yumei's hand.
Zheng Yumei is illiterate and cannot understand it.
Lin Ping took it, looked at it for a long time, and couldn't help but exclaim excitedly, "Da Chuan, you... you really moved your household registration back!"
Lin Chuan smiled at Lin Ping, "Absolutely, I mean what I say."
Lin Qingyou brought over the household registration book. Although he didn't recognize many characters, he did recognize the two characters "Lin Chuan".
"Great, really great."
Lin Chuan knelt down on the ground with a thud, kowtowed to Lin Qingyou and Zheng Yumei, and cried out, "Father, Mother, your son is back!"
Lin Qingyou and Zheng Yumei were moved to tears.
In that instant, their son, whom they had lost for eighteen years, finally returned to their side.
"My son!" Zheng Yumei pulled Lin Chuan up, hugged him tightly, and burst into tears.
Lin Chuan reached out and patted Zheng Yumei on the back. "Mother, we'll have good days ahead of us."
In his past life, his parents suffered so much injustice, enduring all hardship for him, even until his death, afraid of causing him any trouble.
The whole family was moved, and the two sisters-in-law also shed tears.
After finally calming Zheng Yumei down, Lin Chuan stuffed the money he had robbed from Zhou Xiuying the day before into her hands.
"Mother, this money must have been earned by you and my eldest and second brothers. Keep it safe and don't let the wicked take it."
Zheng Yumei stared at the loose change. "Dachuan, now that you've brought this money back, we can't take it. You've had a hard time these past few years, so take it and live a good life."
Lin Chuan said, "Mother, I have a way to make money, and we'll definitely be able to live a good life. You should keep it and not let your nephews and nieces suffer anymore. Those who should be studying should study, and those who should be eating well should eat well."
Lin Ping patted Lin Chuan on the shoulder, "Third brother, when are you and your wife moving back in? Grandpa and Grandma have moved out, so we can all live together as a family."
Lin Wei nodded in agreement, "That's right, third brother. We're a family, living together, so let's work together."
Lin Chuan naturally couldn't let Xu Chunmai stay at her parents' house indefinitely. "We'll come back when Chunmai is a month old. We've agreed, neither of us can be soft-hearted again!"
This time, the whole family is united as one, and they really won't be soft-hearted anymore.
Lin Qingyou said, "Dachuan, don't worry, we discussed it last night and agreed to live a good life together from now on, and we won't be soft-hearted again!"
"Old Lin, you'd better go and see! People from your brother's place have come to collect debts, and they've started making a scene!" Neighbor Pan Guixi rushed in from outside, shouting.
Lin Chuan raised an eyebrow. Zhang Xianglong was quick; he arrived so early.
That's great.
