Chapter 34: Has your strength increased again?
"Grandma, little aunt, can we have braised pork tonight?"
The others' eyes were burning, as if there were flames flickering in them.
Li Xiuli's heart softened, and she endured the pain and said, "...Okay, let's make braised pork."
Lin Qingmu looked at his mother and said, "Mom, can you do it?"
He has never eaten braised pork at home.
The only time I ate there was when my aunt got married and moved to the county, and I had a good meal there.
Li Xiuli's face froze.
He slapped the third brother on the back.
"I can't do it, so you do it?" He was extremely angry.
This son is worse than a steamed bun, he is irritating all the time.
Lin Qingmu took a step back guiltily, with a look of begging for mercy written all over his face.
"Mom, how could I do that?"
Li Xiuli retorted, "If you don't know how to do it, just keep quiet. You eat whatever I cook, and you're the only one asking so many questions!!"
Lin Tang was speechless when he saw his third brother who only felt comfortable after being scolded every day.
He took Li's mother's arm and led her to the stone table in the yard.
Lin Qingmu looked at Lin Tang's back, moved to tears, and hurriedly followed him.
As expected, only Tangtang is nice to him.
Calling him brother is so inhumane.
Lin Tang put the bag in his hand on the stone table and took out the things inside.
She took out the eggs, and the Lin family members' eyes widened and they became greedy again.
When the book was taken out, they were stunned, but their faces showed admiration for the book.
When she took out the malted milk, the Lin family members' expressions became numb.
stunned.
"...Tang...Tangtang, is this...malted milk?" Lin Lu suddenly asked.
The Lin family's eyes suddenly turned to look at Lin Tang.
"What? Malted milk?"
"It seems so. Didn't my eldest cousin send it to my uncle? It looks like this."
"I heard it's sweet, but I wonder if it's true..."
Li Xiuli listened to her son and daughter-in-law talking at the same time and shouted.
"Quiet!"
The voice stopped abruptly.
"Tangtang, what's going on? Where did you get all these things?" She looked at Lin Tang and asked, frowning slightly.
These things are not cheap!
Then forget about the eggs.
Malted milk is such a precious thing. Who can afford it if they don’t have some connections?
And the thermos in her hand...
Even if you spend all the money you have, you still can't get these things.
Lin Tang hurriedly explained.
He said that he helped a high school classmate, and the things he took out of the bag were all given by his classmate's mother.
The thermos was left by her friend for herself, so she gave it to her first.
All of them were given money.
Li Xiuli's heart was pounding when she heard this, and then she felt extremely proud.
It's like being on an airplane.
"Tangtang, you did the right thing! Damn human traffickers!
If that girl were really arrested, who knows what would happen. It's too scary."
"The county is too dangerous. If you go there next time, don't forget to bring your brother with you."
"If anyone dares to pull you, your brother will beat him up."
Lin Tang saw that her mother's face turned pale with fear.
He stood up, walked to the corner where the firewood was stored, and picked up a piece of wood as thick as an adult's arm.
The Lin family looked confused.
Why is my daughter (sister) picking up sticks?
Lin Tang didn't say anything. He placed his hands on both sides of the stick and applied light force.
The stick snapped in the middle.
Lin family: "..."
Firewood is hollow, right?
Lin Qingmu walked over.
He picked up the broken wood, bent it, and scratched it.
Then, people were stunned.
He silently picked up a piece of wood of the same thickness, bent his body, supported himself with his knees, and used his arms to exert force.
The wood didn't move at all.
Lin Qingmu: "..." He felt complicated and even heard the sound of someone being slapped in the face.
Lin Tang smiled sweetly and took the wood from his third brother's hand.
Apply slight force to your wrist.
There was another "click" sound, and the wood that was still intact in Lin Qingmu's hand broke.
Just like breaking a twig.
Lin Qingmu was stunned.
The other members of the Lin family looked dazed.
It took a long time.
Li Xiuli was the first to react. She walked to Lin Tang, took her hand and looked.
Her fingers are white, tender and slender, like jade.
There wasn't even a trace of redness.
"Tangtang, your strength has increased again?" Li Xiuli asked in surprise.
Lin Tang clenched his right hand into a fist and smiled sweetly.
The words she spoke were not so soft anymore.
"Well, I feel full of strength. I can kill a wild boar with two punches."
She sincerely felt so.
The Lin family didn't really believe it.
The little girl had no idea how terrifying wild boars were.
Hunters hunting with shotguns can only run away when they see wild boars!
The wild boar's skin is so thick that even a crossbow cannot penetrate it.
Also, when it arches up, it can knock a grown man down.
It's scary!
Li Xiuli laughed dryly and praised: "It's good to be strong, because if you are strong you won't be afraid of being bullied.
Girls are most likely to be bullied outside, and our Tangtang is stronger, so mother can rest assured."
Lin Lu also said: "Your mother is right. Your grandmother is very strong. She became famous with a few punches. Until now, no one dares to provoke her."
Under my mother's reputation, my brothers and sisters have never suffered any loss since they were young.
Lin Qingshui is the weakest among the Lin brothers.
He envied his sister's strength and said sourly, "I wish I had Tangtang's strength."
Li Xiuli glanced at the second brother with disdain, "You're just dreaming. How could you possibly have such good fortune?"
Her Tangtang is pretty, well-behaved and sensible, and she is a good student. It is normal for her to have good things happen to her.
Lin Tang smiled, and the look in his eyes when he looked at his family seemed to be bathed in warm light.
"Mom, that malted milk is for you and my dad. You're old, so it's just right for you to replenish your body."
Malted milk was not a good thing in her eyes.
But in this era, it is considered a good supplement.
Li Xiuli knew that her daughter cared about her, and her heart felt warm, but she refused.
"Your father and I are both old, why would we still drink malted milk? I'll leave this precious stuff to you and drink it yourself."
"If you're happy, just give Goudan and the others a few bites!"
"They are all taken care of by your brother and sister-in-law. You are just the aunt and don't need to take care of everything.
You don't owe them anything. If you raise an ungrateful person, you'll be the only one who suffers."
She didn't care about these words at all and said them directly in front of everyone in the Lin family.
She knew that Tangtang was smart and had a bright future.
She couldn't let these people at home covet her daughter's things, let alone raise blood-sucking worms.
Lin Qingshan expressed his position first.
"Tangtang, mother is right!
You can keep the things you get. We won’t miss them and won’t think too much about them.
Your brother is not the kind of person who only wants to take advantage of his sister's good things."
Lin Qingshui glanced at Zhou Mei and said, "Brother is right!
We can't help you much, so we don't want to take advantage of you."
