Chapter 29 Don't tell me you treat him as your own brother
No wonder Lin Dahai kept it for so long. His grandfather's recipe has been passed down for more than ten generations. When his grandfather passes away, he can buy the recipe under the name of Mr. Li and make a fortune!
Zhang Xiumei smiled and nodded. Things are different now. She naturally hopes that Lin Mengyao and Lin Ziqiu can have a good relationship.
Although Mengyao was sure that she would meet a noble person when she went to the countryside, she was still unsure about what was going on.
If I can't meet him, I have a brother-in-law who is the head of the group, so I can return to the city earlier.
"Okay, you two sisters can chat for a while, I'll go heat up the food."
Lin Ziqiu responded indifferently.
Lin Dahai is not at home at the moment. He had already gone out to drink.
In the house.
The bed that originally belonged to Lin Ziqiu has been occupied by Lin Mengyao.
It has to be said that although Zhang Xiumei favors boys over girls, Lin Mengyao is her own daughter after all. Seeing her go to the countryside, she prepared a lot of things, big and small.
When she went to the countryside in her previous life, she was not allowed to bring any dry food for the journey, let alone prepare anything.
Zhang Xiumei is a stepmother and cannot be relied upon.
But her biological father Lin Dahai also ignored her.
Gradually, her heart grew cold.
Lin Mengyao sat at the desk and asked tentatively: "I heard from your grandma that you went to work in a state-owned restaurant?"
When she went to Zhong's house that day, Li Guixiang entertained her warmly and even gave her a small red envelope before she left.
Two big solidarities!
Lin Mengyao accepted it herself, but she still felt that Li Guixiang was too stingy, as she sent her away with only 20 yuan, just like sending away a beggar.
When Zhong Zhiyang eloped, Li Guixiang gave her 500 yuan.
Lin Ziqiu didn’t know that her grandmother had given her a red envelope, so she just nodded and said “hmm”.
Lin Mengyao gave a mocking smile, "Can't the Zhong family afford to support you?"
"Or maybe they didn't give you any money to spend, so you ran away."
She secretly hoped that Lin Ziqiu's life would be worse than hers in her previous life.
Lin Ziqiu sighed: "It was me who forced the Zhong family to get married. It's normal for the Zhong family to hate me. So I had to go out and earn money."
Lin Mengyao was a little surprised, but she didn't doubt it.
In the previous life, because of what happened to Zhong Zhiyang, the Zhong family felt guilty towards her, so they treated her well.
But Lin Ziqiu is different.
She remarried on the wedding day and forced Zhong Heyang, who refused to get married, to marry her. Now she lives a hard life in the Zhong family, and she deserves it.
Seeing that Lin Ziqiu was not doing well, Lin Mengyao felt a lot better.
She patted Lin Ziqiu's shoulder pretending to be distressed and said, "Sister, this is fate. You can't avoid it. Just accept it."
Lin Ziqiu avoided her touch and said, "Life in the countryside is not easy. You should worry more about yourself."
As someone who has experienced it, she knows only too well how hard life is in the countryside.
Lin Mengyao disagreed and pointed at the large and small bags of things on the bed. "With these things my mother prepared for me, I can get through the hard times. I can't stay there forever."
There was a look of boasting in her eyes. When Lin Ziqiu got married, her dowry was not so much. In her opinion, the less the dowry, the more the Zhong family would look down on Lin Ziqiu.
It was already painful enough for her to let Lin Ziqiu marry into the Zhong family, so she naturally didn't want Lin Ziqiu to live comfortably in the Zhong family.
Lin Ziqiu glanced at her and said, "Nothing is as useful as money."
Lin Mengyao naturally knew this truth, so she took away Lin Ziqiu's betrothal gift.
In her opinion, the money originally belonged to her.
Lin Ziqiu: "But even if your mother has money, she won't spend it on you. All her money is left for her precious son. She just gave you something to send you off."
It would be fine if this matter was not mentioned, but as soon as it was mentioned, Lin Mengyao became furious.
"Lin Xiaojun is such a good-for-nothing idiot. My mom really hoped that he would have a bright future. Ugh!"
Lin Mengyao was not afraid of Lin Ziqiu complaining at all, because her mother wouldn't believe it anyway.
Lin Ziqiu saw the shadow on the window and sneered in his heart: "No matter what, Xiaojun is your brother, why do you say that to him?"
Lin Mengyao snorted coldly: "Don't tell me that you treat him as your own brother. Don't you know what kind of character he is? He is selfish, lazy, and has a lot of bad habits. If you don't find it disgusting to be a sister to such a person, I find it disgusting too!"
She will never forget the time in her previous life when she was seriously ill in bed and could have lived a few more days by spending some money.
But her good brother said, "Sister, don't blame me for being cruel. This money was left to me by my parents. You got sick because of retribution. You can't let me pay for it! If I spend the money, how can I get married and have children?"
Lin Ziqiu sighed: "I didn't realize you were so disgusted with him before."
Lin Mengyao looked at her with a mocking expression, "I didn't expect that you still think of him as your own brother."
Ever since Zhang Xiumei became pregnant with Lin Xiaojun, Lin Mengyao has been very resistant.
But the whole family treats him as a treasure.
She originally thought that Lin Ziqiu was just like her, hating Lin Xiaojun in her heart but being able to get along with him on the surface.
But she didn't expect Lin Ziqiu to be a brainless person.
"After all, people born from the same mother can only be close to each other. No matter how good I am to him, he only recognizes you as his sister, and I have always been an outsider." Lin Ziqiu sighed, looking a little sad.
Lin Mengyao was proud, "I don't care about this thing, but you treat it like a treasure. It means I am luckier than you."
She was worried that Lin Ziqiu would get suspicious, so she changed the subject: "But this time I went to the countryside for you, which can be considered as compensation for you. You can stay in the city and live a good life."
"By the way, when I was packing up a few days ago, I found something your mom left behind. It was a small box, and I put it in dad's room."
Lin Ziqiu's breathing slowed down. He stared at Lin Mengyao intently and asked hesitantly, "Box?"
"Yes, there should be a diary in there. The handwriting is unfamiliar. It should be your mother's, right? After all, Dad doesn't have a mistress outside."
Lin Mengyao explained in a panic, trying to make herself look credible.
This is not entirely false, Lin Dahai did hide such a box.
After she found out, she was a little confused. If he still had feelings for Li Xiuyan, why would he cheat on her mother while he was married? ?
Lin Ziqiu knew that she was not that kind. But she also wanted to know what Lin Mengyao was keeping secret, so she stood up and said, "Then I'll go take a look."
Seeing that she believed it, Lin Mengyao breathed a sigh of relief, "Yes, I put it under the bed, you can just go and look for it."
She followed Lin Ziqiu out and saw Lin Xiaojun standing in the yard. She waved to him, hoping that Lin Xiaojun would help her cover up her lie later.
Unexpectedly, Lin Xiaojun ignored her and ran away.
Lin Mengyao cursed in a low voice: "Waste!"
On the other side, Lin Ziqiu really found the box according to what Lin Mengyao said.
Lin Ziqiu opened it, took out the diary, and saw that the handwriting was indeed his mother's.
Turning the pages further, she discovered that it contained a recipe book that had been passed down in the Li family for more than ten generations and was as thick as a finger.
