Just when Lin Ran was busy paying attention to the follow-up of the first aid, he suddenly heard someone mention the third brother.
"By the way, I heard there were other people swept away by the river. How are they? Have they been found?"
"They should be fine. The others were playing by the river, so they all ran ashore when the embankment collapsed."
"By the way, it seems the captain's third son was injured. You said Lin Lao San was unlucky. He didn't go to work and sneaked out to catch fish, and ended up encountering this incident. Fortunately, he was rescued."
"Who said it wasn't? Let's see if he keeps dodging and being lazy in the future!"
“…”
The conversation went off topic later on, and they all started complaining about how Lin Laosan was cheating at work all day. The victims who had been assigned to the same group with him cried out that they were unlucky!
Lin Ran was shocked when she heard this. What? Third brother was injured?
This time she didn't care about anyone else at all. She pushed through the crowd and rushed to the reservoir to look for Lin Laosan.
Finally, I saw Shen Wenfang and Lin Laosan behind the crowd.
When Lin Ran walked over quickly, Shen Wenfang was barraging Lin Lao San with a barrage of criticism.
"Are you starving at home, or are you not being fed? They're even asking you to skip work and sneak into the river to catch fish?"
"You're willing to sacrifice your life for a little food?"
"If Shi Zhiqing hadn't happened to pass by and pulled you up, you would have been swept away by the rapids and your body wouldn't even be found!"
Lin Laosan argued with a guilty conscience:
"Mom, you didn't say that when I brought home the fish before. You even praised me so much!"
"you……"
Shen Wenfang was choked and immediately slapped Lin Laosan on the back in anger.
"Shut up right there! Who gave you the right to speak? We're talking about today. Anyway, you better be careful from now on. You're not allowed to go fishing in the river anymore!"
Seeing Lin Lao San being beaten, Lin Ran asked with concern:
"Mom, is Third Brother okay?"
When Shen Wenfang saw Lin Ran coming, he withdrew his hand that was about to continue beating someone.
"Nothing's wrong. I just got a cut on my leg from something in the river."
Lin Ran saw that it was indeed just a small wound, and her heart finally settled down.
Lin Lao San also said with a playful smile:
"They're just minor injuries. They'll be fine in a couple of days. Don't worry, little sister."
Then he thought of something and said with regret:
"Little sister, you don't know that I caught a big grass carp, weighing at least two kilograms."
"But I was suddenly swept away, so the fish got away. What a pity! Such a big grass carp would have been enough for us to have a good meal."
Lin Ran saw that Lin Lao San had gotten himself into this state just for a fish.
And if he hadn't been lucky enough to be rescued, it would be a question whether he could still be standing here now.
But until now, he is still thinking about a fish.
To be honest, Lin Ran felt extremely sad at this moment.
She thought of the densely packed schools of fish downstream of the spatial spiritual spring, and the flocks of chickens, ducks, geese, pigs, cattle and sheep, not to mention the mountains of gold, silver and jewelry in the storage room.
He is obviously rich enough to rival a country, but his family is risking their lives for a fish. How ridiculous!
No, she couldn't help it. Even at the risk of her parents' suspicion, she had to spend more money to improve her family's conditions.
Lin Ran came to her senses after making up her mind. When she heard Lin Lao San still regretting the big fat fish that had escaped, she suddenly reacted.
Maybe it's no wonder the family is poor, maybe it's just that the third brother is greedy? Otherwise, why haven't I seen the eldest and second brothers act like this?
Lin Laosan didn't notice Lin Ran's increasingly dark face at all, and continued to mutter like Xianglin Sao.
"Little sister, do you think that if I had thrown the fish ashore as soon as I caught it, it would not have been able to escape?"
"Oh, I shouldn't have gotten carried away at that time. I was only concerned with showing off. I lost a lot!"
“…”
Lin Ran has never agreed with her ancestors' educational methods as much as she does now.
then……
"Mom, it seems like Third Brother hasn't learned his lesson at all."
"Little sister?"
Lin Lao San was horrified and turned around to run away.
Shen Wenfang, who had been ready to take action for a long time, had not taken any action because of his daughter's presence, but now he finally couldn't help it.
This time he used a series of iron sand palms and shadowless kicks.
"I told you this bastard won't learn his lesson unless he's beaten. He's either been lazy or eating all day. Eat, eat, eat, eat your head! I'll beat you to death today! Let's see if you dare to do it again!"
Lin Laosan limped on one leg and ran away with his head in his hands, begging for mercy.
"Mom, I was wrong. Now I really know I was wrong. Please at least give me some face outside!"
"Mom! Mom! You hit me in the wrong place. You shouldn't hit someone in the face!"
"I promise I won't dare to do it again next time, stop it now!"
“…”
Seeing this, Lin Ran nodded with satisfaction.
As expected, spoiling a child is like harming him. She shouldn't have been so soft-hearted as to help her third brother out of trouble. Fortunately, she stopped herself in time.
Shen Wenfang finally stopped when he was tired.
Lin Laosan lay on the ground groaning like a salted fish. He felt sore all over from being beaten that there was no place left to rest.
When he saw that Lin Ran didn't come to help him up, but instead helped Shen Wenfang to pinch her wrist, he became furious.
"Little sister, you're very good today. Humph, from now on, Third Brother will never tear your cloth again!"
Seeing him acting like a rogue, Lin Ran could only hold her forehead in her hand helplessly, but this was exactly what she wanted.
"It's better not to do it, so as to avoid any more trouble."
Lin Ran read the history books and combined them with the original owner's memories, and knew that private transactions were not allowed now.
