Hearing Lin Shuning's voice, Lin Chuan saw her running frantically into the house. He picked her up and asked, "Where are the bad guys?"
Lin Shuning's small gloves, each the size of a tiny palm, pointed straight outside, "In the yard."
Lin Chuan took a look and thought, "Great! Zhou Xiuying and Lin Fugui have actually found the back door of the shop."
They're not going to give up.
He carried Lin Shuning out and coldly watched the two of them.
"What exactly do you want?"
Zhou Xiuying started to play the victim, "Dachuan, please, save your grandfather and me. We really have no other choice. Your aunt said that if we don't take back five hundred yuan today, she will kick your grandfather and me to the pigsty and won't give us any food."
"Da Chuan, please, for the sake of us being your grandparents, do us a favor and help us. Five hundred yuan isn't much to you right now, please, Da Chuan."
Lin Chuan narrowed his eyes and said the same thing again, "Don't put on an act for me. I don't know you. Get out of here!"
With that, Lin Chuan put Lin Shuning on the ground and told her to go back inside. He then pushed the two of them out the door and locked the gate.
Zhou Xiuying and Lin Fugui looked at the tightly closed courtyard gate. They knew that there was no way to get through to Lin Chuan.
"Dad, what should we do now?"
Lin Fugui let out a sigh of relief, "What else can we do but go back to the village?"
They originally wanted to make a scene, but after Lin Chuan said that first, no one in the store believed their relationship at all.
Lin Chuan also wanted to take them to the police station.
"Looks like we can't mess around like this anymore. If we anger Lin Chuan, it'll affect Xinglong's chances of getting married," Lin Fugui muttered.
Zhou Xiuying sighed with every step she took.
"I should have eaten a bowl of noodles when Lin Chuan said I could get them for free. Now look what happened, I didn't get anything."
Lin Chuan stood inside the gate, listening to the footsteps on the snow growing fainter and fainter before opening the gate.
In the distance, you can still see the hunched backs of the two people.
Lin Ping walked out and let out a long breath.
"Da Chuan, will they come back to cause trouble again?"
Lin Chuan closed the courtyard gate behind him. "Not necessarily."
If it were Lin Ping today, he wouldn't know how to handle this situation.
He grew up with Zhou Xiuying and Lin Fugui since he was a child, and was used to being bullied.
Lin Chuan understood, after all, he had been just as pathetic in his past life.
If reality hadn't been so harsh, he could have been reborn...
After the midday rush was over, Lin Chuan, Lin Ping, and Lin Wei said, "The fact that Zhou Xiuying and her husband came to our store to cause trouble is definitely not just their business. Wu Chunhua and the others must have been involved."
"That's it for today. From now on, no matter who comes, Big Brother and Second Brother, remember this: pretend you don't know them, and they have nothing to do with us. If things get really bad, call the police. Remember, don't be soft-hearted."
"That's how these wicked people are. If you give them a penny this time, they'll be eyeing a hundred dollars next time. If you give them a hundred dollars, they'll be eyeing ten thousand dollars. It's a bottomless pit. Also, don't be kind for no reason. You can be a thousand or ten thousand good to them and you won't get half a good in return."
Lin Ping and Lin Wei nodded in agreement, "Da Chuan, we'll listen to you."
Before it got dark, Lin Chuan drove the donkey cart, taking Lin Shuning back to Yuquan Village.
Back home, he didn't mention the incident of Zhou Xiuying and Lin Fugui causing trouble at the store earlier that day.
After all, this would cause Lin Qingyou and Zheng Yumei to worry excessively.
However, after finishing cleaning up in the evening, Zheng Yumei was cleaning up the pork skins while muttering, "I heard that Xinglong is bringing his girlfriend home, probably in the next few days."
Lin Chuan asked, "Is it that Xiao Min?"
“Yes, yes, her name should be Han Min, but we’ve never met her. Wu Chunhua just keeps saying how wonderful that girl is.” Zheng Yumei smiled. “In my opinion, none of them are as good as my three daughters-in-law. Your eldest sister-in-law, your second sister-in-law, and your wife are all excellent women. I think your mother is a blessed person.”
Lin Chuan finished washing the pot and said with a smile, "That's right, Mom. You've always been blessed, and even greater blessings are yet to come. When my older brothers and I have earned more money, we'll go to the city to buy a house and live in a big house."
Since getting married, Zheng Yumei has never thought of leaving Yuquan Village.
But she was happy to listen to Lin Chuan's coaxing words, as it was her youngest son's way of showing her filial piety.
For her, this home is wonderful; it's a home she and her man built together.
Lin Chuan suddenly remembered something. "Mom, you and Dad should talk about renting out the land next year. Working in the fields is hard work and doesn't pay much. Plus, we have a lot of kids to take care of, so there's still a lot of work to do. If you really feel bored, you can help out at the shop. I'll calculate your and Dad's wages then."
Lin Qingyou walked over and said, "This land was allocated not long ago, and you're already renting it out like this? Generations of people have been eyeing this little bit of land."
Lin Chuan persuaded, "Dad, we're not just abandoning the land. It's still yours, it's not going anywhere. The economy will get better and better in the future, so are you prepared to stay here and not go anywhere else?"
Lin Qingyou thought about it and said, "What you said makes sense, but your mother and I still need to think about it."
Lin Chuan knew the deep affection the older generation had for this land.
But he was thinking that he should get his whole family to move out as soon as possible.
His next plan is to open a store in Xuancheng once he has enough money. The city is big with a large population, so he can expand the store and make more money than he does now.
Moreover, Wu Chunhua and the others in the courtyard are also necessary.
We must not let these people ruin their wonderful lives.
As for Lin Xinglong wanting to bring Han Min home, that's great, he always has to do something.
In his past life, Lin Xinglong married Han Min. As the saying goes, two people can't sleep in the same bed, and the couple are alike.
All she does all day is scheme to get his money.
Moreover, in his previous life, Lin Xinglong got the money to marry Han Min by selling his daughter.
The next day, Lin Chuan inquired again and learned that Han Min was coming to his house the day after tomorrow.
That's good.
Lin Chuan went to the county town, and after finishing his work in the afternoon, he took some time to visit Lei Yutang.
Upon seeing Lin Chuan, Lei Yutang acted as if he were seeing an ancestor, fawning over him, "Big brother, what's the matter?"
"Help me cause some trouble."
Upon hearing this, Lei Yutang's eyes lit up. "Brother, don't worry about that. We're experts at this. Just wait for my good news!"
