"Don't worry, you won't go hungry."
Looking at Hu Lin who couldn't make sense, Hu Xiaoyi frowned.
"Why, you don't believe it." Hu Lin suddenly had an idea, "How about we make a bet?
If we can still have enough food every day when the year-end settlement is made, I will have the final say in this family from now on."
The timing was right today, saving her the trouble of planning later.
Living under the same roof, she would not be able to bypass Hu Xiaoyi in anything she wants to do in the future, so this is a good opportunity for her to take the initiative into her own hands.
"You don't know how high the sky is or how deep the earth is." Hu Xiaoyi felt a little disgusted when he saw Hu Lin's confident look.
"So do you want to gamble or not? I'll listen to whoever can support the family! If I lose, I'll listen to you from now on."
Hu Xiaoyi has always felt that he is disobedient, and now that she has given him this opportunity, he will definitely take the bait.
He doesn't have Zhao Ming's brains.
"Okay, I hope you'll keep your word when the time comes."
Hu Xiaoyi remembered what Cao Zhaodi had said to him, and knew that this was a good opportunity to discipline Hu Lin, so he agreed without hesitation.
He had lived for so many years, so he naturally knew that the food was not enough for the three of them to eat every day, so he agreed because Hu Lin would definitely lose.
Li Aihua looked at Hu Lin with some concern, only to see Hu Lin smiling.
"I'm telling you this too, you'd better keep your word."
When Li Aihua saw Hu Lin's confident look, she somehow stopped worrying.
"I will." Hu Xiaoyi picked up the bowl and started eating.
Hu Lin said no more and started eating.
After the three of them finished their meal in silence, they each went about their own business.
Hu Xiaoyi continued to work with his rattan. After Li Aihua finished washing the dishes, she took the iron bucket and went to the stream not far behind the house to fetch water. She filled the water tank and covered it with a wooden lid.
"Dad, Mugai wants to fight another one."
There was no door in the kitchen. When Hu Lin saw Li Aihua's actions, he immediately assigned a task to Hu Xiaoyi.
Hu Xiaoyi did not answer after hearing this.
After dark, the three of them washed up and went to bed.
Because there was not much oil used in the oil lamps and Cao Zhaodi did not share it with them, they had to be frugal in everything.
After breakfast the next day, Li Aihua originally wanted to take a hoe to cultivate the land, but Hu Lin took her to find Zhao Ming first.
Li Aihua was still confused when Zhao Ming took her pulse while she was sitting on the stool.
She thought her daughter came to see Dr. Zhao because she felt discomfort from the wound.
But as soon as the daughter came in, she said, "Come, take a look at her," and then Dr. Zhao took her pulse.
After Zhao Ming took Li Aihua's pulse and wrote a prescription, he looked at Hu Lin and said, "It's your turn."
Li Aihua quickly stood up and stood aside.
Hu Lin walked over reluctantly and held out his hand. "Can you please make the medicine you prescribed less bitter? It makes me sick."
She had never drunk such a bad-tasting medicine before, and she suspected that Zhao Ming did it on purpose.
"Good medicine tastes bitter." Zhao Ming withdrew his hand, picked up the pen to write the prescription, and a barely detectable gloating flashed in his eyes.
At this time, Li Aihua asked Hu Lin, "Girl, can I not take the medicine?"
Hu Lin looked at Li Aihua and said, "No, your health is too poor. You need to take good care of yourself."
Therefore, Hu Lin just missed Zhao Ming's emotional fluctuations. When her eyes fell on Zhao Ming again, Zhao Ming looked decent again.
"But if your grandma knew——"
"She won't know, just focus on taking care of your body." Hu Lin interrupted Li Aihua.
"Okay, come get the medicine tomorrow."
Zhao Ming chased people away.
"You go first. I have a few words to say to Dr. Zhao."
Li Aihua glanced at the familiar look between the two and left first.
"Do you have any extra vegetable seeds at home? Share some with me."
Zhao Ming thought Hu Lin was going to talk about nutritional supplements, but when he heard her asking for them, he said teasingly, "If you want them, give me money."
"Just owe it for now." Hu Lin wrote another bad check.
"No credit."
"Deposit." Hu Lin took out a candy and put it on the desk.
These are the leftovers from the two she and Li Aihua took last time.
She didn't like sweets and was thinking of finding an opportunity to give it to Li Aihua, but then she thought of Zhao Ming's virtue, so she brought it.
"I don't like candy." Zhao Ming didn't buy it.
"Then why don't you just not eat it? I'll give you the money later and you can pay it back to me."
"Another attempt to get something for nothing." Zhao Ming laughed.
"Who told you not to like candy?"
"Okay! I live in the middle of the back village. Come to my house after dinner and get it." Zhao Ming accepted the candy.
Hu Lin nodded and said something else, "I'll come get the nutritional supplements in a few days."
"No problem." Zhao Ming changed the subject, "Your second aunt came to get a can of nutritional supplements a few days ago."
"I thought she was so bold." Hu Lin sneered.
"Do you think everyone is you?" Doctor Zhao rolled his eyes at Hu Lin.
“Thank you.”
Hu Lin left to chase Li Aihua.
But she didn't know that Li Aihua was waiting for her not far away.
"Why are you waiting for me? Didn't I tell you to go back first?"
Li Aihua looked at Hu Lin in embarrassment, "Girl, I've thought about it and decided not to take the medicine. We don't have any money."
Li Aihua lowered her head and said this.
"You're waiting here because you're worried about this."
Hu Lin thought she had made it very clear just now, but she still overestimated Li Aihua's ability to absorb, or rather, the influence of Cao Zhaodi on her.
"The money used to nurse you back to health is not credited to the Hu family. It's my money." Hu Lin explained patiently.
"Where did you get the money?" Li Aihua was even more surprised.
"Don't look at me like that. I have no money now. What I'm spending is my future money." Hu Lin teased Li Aihua.
Li Aihua was confused. "Money from the future? How can you use it now?"
"This is a secret." Hu Lin didn't want to waste time talking to Li Aihua. "Now can you take the medicine with peace of mind?"
Li Aihua nodded.
"Then go home."
Hu Lin walked forward and Li Aihua followed behind.
Today is the weekend and the children are all on holiday. On the way back home, there were children everywhere.
After returning home, Li Aihua took a hoe to cultivate the land behind the house, while Hu Lin stretched himself on the kang.
During this period, you should first stretch the ligaments of the whole body, and then combine it with physical training. Only after you reach the minimum standard can you start practicing the moves and mental methods.
It is not that painful for children to sprain their ligaments. Hu Lin was practicing very hard when an uninvited guest came to his home.
"Hulin, are you there?"
The child's voice sounded somewhat familiar.
Hu Lin paused and asked, "Who are you?"
As soon as the question was asked, Hu Lin remembered it.
Hu Lin got off the kang and walked out with an unhappy look on his face.
Didn’t she tell you not to hang around in front of her?
This little brat is really a hardworking and stubborn person.
"What are you doing here?"
Hu Lin stood in the living room, looking at Yang Qing, who was standing outside the door, dressed neatly and carrying a cloth bag.
When Yang Qing heard Hu Lin's words, he pouted in displeasure.
Hu Lin saw it and frowned.
She really hated dealing with children.
