Yuanbao bared his teeth, scaring Zhou Xiuying so much that she dared only hide behind Lin Fugui.
We can't get into this courtyard.
Lin Fugui had no choice but to clamor for Lin Qingyou to come back.
Actually, he didn't need to shout; someone had already sent a message to Lin Qingyou as soon as the two men came this way.
Lin Qingyou and Zheng Yumei hurried back from the fields and saw Lin Fugui and Zhou Xiuying staring at their big black dog at the gate of the courtyard.
Upon seeing Lin Qingyou, Lin Fugui immediately perked up.
"Hey bro, why did you get a dog? Don't you know your mom's afraid of dogs?"
Lin Qingyou has now made up his mind that his whole family will stand on Lin Chuan's side.
He had just heard that Lin Chuan had gone out with a letter of introduction, so they must not back down while Lin Chuan was not at home.
"Dad, the dog is being kept at my house. Didn't you and Mom go to live at Youfu's house?"
Zhou Xiuying and Lin Fugui were furious.
Zhou Xiuying jumped up and down behind them, "We've been gone for so many days, why didn't you think about bringing us back? You heartless bastards!"
Lin Qingyou took a deep breath. “Mother, you and Father already have a good place to go. This house was built by Yumei and me. Dachuan will also be coming back with his wife and children in a few days, so there’s nowhere for them to stay. You should go back to Youfu’s place and enjoy your life.”
Lin Fugui narrowed his eyes. "Boss, are you serious? You're unfilial, aren't you afraid of being gossiped about behind your back?"
Lin Qingyou said, "Dad, I've been filial for so many years, but it's all been for nothing. Let it be."
Zhou Xiuying plopped down on the ground, saying, "I can't live like this anymore. My son doesn't care about his mother anymore."
Everyone knows that Zhou Xiuying threw a tantrum, and now everyone is watching the show, but no one is speaking up for her.
Lin Qingyou and Zheng Yumei were determined this time.
"Father, Mother, it's no use making a fuss. You're the ones who wanted to move out."
Upon hearing the news, Lin Youfu knew that a fight had broken out in his home again, so he quickly ran back.
Along the way, many people pointed at him and scolded him for being unfilial.
They got the benefits, occupied the house, and even the elderly can't tolerate them.
Lin Youfu's ears turned red and his face turned pale as he listened.
He didn't want his parents to be at home either; they'd been too tired these past few days. But he also didn't want people to say he was wrong.
It's basically trying to have your cake and eat it too.
Lin Youfu walked quickly to Lin Qingyou's door.
He helped Zhou Xiuying up. "Mother, why did you and Father come out of the house?"
"Why did we come out? It's all because your wife can't stand us. Your father and I have raised two wicked children!"
Lin Youfu's face alternated between dark and light. "Father, Mother, let's go back first. I'll talk to Chunhua about it."
Seeing Lin Qingyou's determination, and considering the dog, Zhou Xiuying and Lin Fugui knew that they wouldn't be able to get into the eldest son's house for the time being.
Lin Youfu's return gave them a way out, so they definitely had to hurry back with him.
Where else would we go?
After returning home, Lin Youfu inevitably had another big argument with Wu Chunhua.
Lin Chuan, who was on the road, was unaware of this. He hurried to Wangshan County and bought a bus ticket.
The bus departs at noon and arrives in Xuancheng around 3 p.m.
Before getting on the bus, Lin Chuan found a place to eat.
In fact, Wangshan County is not that far from Xuancheng, but the roads are in bad condition now, making the journey bumpy and preventing cars from going that fast.
He arrived early and still got a seat, but those who arrived later didn't get seats; it was incredibly crowded.
The car was cramped and stuffy, and it had a strange smell.
And so, the car finally entered Xuancheng.
Lin Chuan gazed out the window at the old city of Xuancheng, sighing inwardly.
The Xuancheng of the previous life had been developed very well, and at that time, there was no trace of the old Xuancheng of today.
Lin Chuan was very familiar with Xuancheng. Back then, he had made countless trips to this bus station in order to find his eldest daughter.
The car slowly pulled into the bus station. After getting off, Lin Chuan walked out from the exit.
He had only taken a few steps when a man in a Zhongshan suit approached him. "Hello, are you Comrade Lin Chuan?"
Lin Chuan nodded. "Who are you?"
"Hello, my name is Wei Liang, and I am Deputy Director Tang's secretary. He just returned to the bureau and has some matters to attend to, so he asked me to pick you up."
Wei Liang drove back to the Grain and Oil Reserve Bureau first, and not long after, Lin Chuan saw Tang Xuezhen again.
Tang Xuezhen was very happy to see Lin Chuan. "Lin Chuan, it's great to see you again."
Lin Chuan smiled and said, "Team Leader Tang looks good."
Tang Xuezhen exclaimed, "Thanks to you."
The car drove towards the Xuancheng Furniture Factory.
The furniture factory is located in a rather remote area; there are hardly any other houses near it.
“Wang Bin, the factory manager of the furniture factory, is an old friend of many years. He told me that there was a problem with a batch of timber in the factory recently, which caused the wardrobes that were ordered to be delivered. He was worried about this and mentioned it to me, which reminded me of you.” Tang Xuezhen told Lin Chuan about the general situation of the furniture factory.
"But Lin Chuan, you don't need to feel pressured. I just mentioned to him that I have a friend who is very skillful with his hands, but I can't guarantee that he can help. You'll see for yourself in a bit."
Lin Chuan nodded. "Okay."
The car quickly entered the furniture factory.
The furniture factory was quite busy; there was the clanging and sawing sound.
Tang Xuezhen took Lin Chuan directly to Wang Bin's office.
Wang Bin has been extremely stressed these past few days. He mentioned it to Tang Xuezhen, saying he could introduce him to a skilled craftsman.
However, Wang Bin didn't have high hopes.
Tang Xuezhen knocked on the door and led Lin Chuan inside.
Upon seeing this, Wang Bin quickly came over to greet him, "Old Tang."
Tang Xuezhen pulled Lin Chuan over, "Da Bin, this is the carpenter I mentioned before, Lin Chuan."
Wang Bin extended his right hand. "Hello, I am Wang Bin."
Lin Chuan shook hands with Wang Bin, "Hello, Factory Director Wang."
Wang Bin touched Lin Chuan's palms and found them covered in thick calluses. Looking down, he saw that Lin Chuan's fingers were also covered in calluses.
This is clearly the result of years of hard work.
However, Lin Chuan doesn't look very old. There are many experienced old carpenters in his factory, but none of them have a feasible solution.
Thinking about this, Wang Bin felt that there might still be no solution to this problem.
Although he thought this way, Wang Bin didn't say anything and still enthusiastically went to pour hot water.
"Come on, Lao Tang, Lin Chuan, have a seat."
Wang Bin put tea leaves into the teacup, put the lid on, and placed it on the table before sitting down himself.
"Dabin, tell Lin Chuan what's going on with your timber. I don't know anything about these things."
Wang Bin sighed, "It's like this, a customer ordered a batch of wardrobes from us. Originally, all the wood and everything was prepared and almost finished, but a while ago it rained, and because of our negligence and poor management, all the good quality cubic pieces in this batch got damp and warped, so they can't be installed. Basically, they're all ruined."
"Logically, we could prepare new timber, but it was just a coincidence that the next batch of timber wouldn't arrive for another week, while our delivery date was approaching. By the time the new timber arrived, there wouldn't be enough time."
