In the stillness of the night, Lin Chuan coaxed the excited Lin Shuning to sleep, finally unable to suppress his longing for his lover.
The two of them were like a ball of fire, dry and scorching.
Xu Chunmai felt like she was about to faint, her voice soft as she begged for mercy.
Lin Chuan felt that her alluring eyes and soft, seductive tone made it impossible for him to resist.
Early in the morning, before dawn, Lin Chuan felt extremely satisfied.
In contrast, Xu Chunmai was so asleep she could barely keep her eyes open.
Lin Chuan quietly got out of bed to make breakfast.
He had just started the fire when Sun Qiaoling came in.
"Third Uncle, you've worked so hard these past few days, let me do it."
Lin Chuan said, "Sister-in-law, you've all been working hard at home. I'm back today to make noodles for you."
Sun Qiaoling smiled and said, "Then I'll help you out."
The steaming hot hand-pulled noodles had just hit the pot when Yuanbao's frantic shouts came from outside.
Immediately afterwards, Lin Chuan heard Wu Chunhua's voice.
He looked out the small kitchen window toward the gate and, for some reason, Wu Chunhua and Lin Caifeng knelt down at the gate.
"Da Chuan, no matter what mistakes we made, it was all our fault."
"Da Chuan, I've come to apologize to you today. I was wrong before. It's okay if you don't acknowledge me as your mother, I just ask that you forgive me."
"Brother, Mother insists on coming to apologize to you, and I can't persuade her otherwise. Brother, please come out and talk to her, I'm afraid she'll kneel here forever."
The commotion woke Xu Chunmai up, and it also drew the attention of the neighbors who came out to see what was going on.
And so, early in the morning, a group of people gathered around the entrance of Old Master Lin's house to watch the commotion and point and whisper.
This is exactly the effect Wu Chunhua wanted.
She had already humbled herself and come over to apologize to Lin Chuan.
She wanted to force Lin Chuan to forgive them first, so that she could get a job as a waitress at Lin Chuan's noodle shop.
Lin Chuan frowned; he absolutely did not believe that Wu Chunhua would apologize to him.
This woman always blames others; how could she possibly be at fault herself?
Moreover, what Wu Chunhua and Lin Caifeng said was clearly meant to pressure him.
Force him to forgive his family.
Sun Qiaoling stared at it for a long time, then asked, "Third Uncle, what should we do?"
Lin Chuan thought for a moment, "Sister-in-law, go tell Second Sister-in-law and Yesen not to go out and watch the commotion. If they want to kneel, let them. In a little while, just call Second Sister-in-law and the children over for dinner."
Xu Chunmai got dressed and stepped onto the ground, where her feet felt a little soft.
"Okawa."
Lin Chuan went to get the noodles and saw her come out. "Were you woken up?"
Xu Chunmai nodded. "Dachuan, they've been here the whole time. Will they be alright?"
Lin Chuan said, "It's fine, let them freeze to death."
Wu Chunhua and the others were making a fuss outside for a long time, but Lin Chuan didn't show up at all.
Lin Caifeng whispered, "Mother, is Lin Chuan not home?"
"No, I haven't heard that he left."
However, Wu Chunhua also regretted it a little, as it was too cold that day, and she was shivering from the cold.
What's more, kneeling here like this, my knees are even colder and feel swollen. If I move them even slightly, it feels like being pricked with needles.
But the play has already gone this far, how can she and Lin Caifeng go back if they can't see Lin Chuan?
A short while later, Liang Yun from the side room called the children, and they all went to the main room.
He didn't even glance at them.
Lin Chuan and Sun Qiaoling served the noodles, and the children obediently washed their hands and faces and sat down around the table.
The whole house smelled of noodles, and there was a poached egg for each person.
The only sounds in the room besides the delicious aroma were the sounds of people eating noodles.
It was completely out of place with the hustle and bustle outside.
After quietly finishing breakfast, Liang Yun cleared away the dishes and went to wash them.
Lin Chuan began packing his things.
After Liang Yun finished washing all the dishes, Lin Chuan looked at the nearly full slop bucket for a moment, then picked it up and walked out.
Wu Chunhua refused to believe that Lin Chuan wouldn't come out today. As long as Lin Chuan did come out, she still had a trump card.
Sure enough, she saw Lin Chuan leave.
Wu Chunhua's voice became even louder.
She had barely opened her mouth when a bucket of swill came flying at her. "Da Chuan..."
From head to body, not a single part was spared.
Wu Chunhua and Lin Caifeng were both soaked.
Not only that, but as soon as Wu Chunhua opened her mouth, the swill was poured directly into her mouth.
The disgusting smell made Wu Chunhua lower her head and start vomiting, but she couldn't vomit it all out.
Those around them burst into laughter at the sight.
Lin Chuan emptied the slop bucket. "Hey, why is there someone at the door? They're really in the way."
A gust of cold wind blew, and Wu Chunhua and Lin Caifeng were immediately freezing, feeling like they were about to die.
Wu Chunhua managed to spit out what was in her mouth, and then gagged for a long time.
She stood up, and the dirt on her scarf fell directly into her neck.
She glared angrily at Lin Chuan, "You, you actually dared to throw swill at me!"
Lin Chuan looked puzzled, then, in a high-pitched voice, mimicking Wu Chunhua's, "Who was yelling just now? I beg for your forgiveness. I won't get up until you forgive me."
"I knew it! How could you suddenly realize you were in the wrong and start threatening and pressuring me? Why aren't you pretending anymore? Go ahead and keep pretending, will you?"
Lin Caifeng's tears streamed down her face. "Mother, go back quickly. Stop thinking about being a waitress. Let's go."
Lin Chuan raised an eyebrow. "Oh ho, so you saw that my shop is hiring waiters? Forget about it. I won't hire you, no matter who I hire. You... don't even think about taking a single penny from me!"
Wu Chunhua glared at Lin Chuan, then angrily shouted, "Lin Chuan, you...you'll die a horrible death!"
"It's alright, you'll definitely die before me."
Wu Chunhua angrily dragged Lin Caifeng home. The further they walked, the more pungent the smell became. Wu Chunhua started vomiting violently again. She felt that she was no different from someone who had eaten shit.
