Chapter 127: Your Gu family can’t afford to raise our daughter, but we can!
These words immediately made Ms. Gu's face change. She had not expected that the Fang family would actually defend Fang Hui in this way, and even exaggerate both the negative and positive statements.
Damn it, if she had known earlier she would have asked other people from the Fang family to come over. Wasn’t it said that Fang Jinran was very picky about Fang Hui and had always been at odds with her?
How is this discord?
It's obvious that his whole heart follows his sister!
Lin Qinshu glanced at Ms. Gu calmly and said, "It doesn't matter if your Gu family can't afford to support my Yuanyuan. My Lin family can."
Ms. Gu's heart skipped a beat.
She originally wanted to stage a big drama in which Fang Hui and Lin Yuan's identities were exposed, and then watch the two of them being kicked out so that she could vent the anger that was stuck in her throat.
As a result, she became the one being attacked!
"Third brother, second brother, you misunderstood. I just said that. You also know that elders always worry more and consider more than you younger generations. I really didn't mean to say that I can't afford to support Huihui and Yuanyuan. Please don't overthink it." Ms. Gu was speechless and angry, but she had to put on a smile and speak softly to Fang Jinran and Lin Qinshu.
Fang Jinran's abilities are not that great, but his battle record in Rongcheng can be checked at any time. In the whole Rongcheng, no one dares to say anything against Fang Jinran.
Lin Qinshu is even more different.
He is called the Prince of Jiangnan Buddhist Circle, which is just the surface meaning. He is practicing Buddhism and Taoism and now practices with hair uncut, and he also has various certificates.
In other words, Fang Hui might have been joking just now.
But Lin Qinshu really has those skills. Although some people believe in them and some don’t, who wouldn’t believe them when they are at the top?
This time, Ms. Gu shot herself in the foot.
Sisters Lin Yuan and Fang Hui ate oranges and admired Ms. Gu who was so angry that she was fuming, but had to hold her anger back.
They both blinked.
It turns out that having a brother protecting you is such a wonderful feeling.
It’s a pity that they never had an older brother, only a younger brother.
In the time and space where they lived, their parents abandoned them when they were children, but came back to recognize them after they grew up.
They just want to find something that can help their son get the bride price.
Lin Yuan can still remember it.
The so-called parents came to her rental house to find her, and for the first time ever, they bought her a two-dollar ice cream cone from Mixue Ice City. They took her to sit in a park with free sports equipment, showed hypocritical kindness, handed her the ice cream that had already melted in their hands, told her to eat it quickly, and then went out to play after eating.
At that time, she really believed that her parents still had a little love for her, until she met their son later.
Only son.
She heard her parents say to their only son: "Her name is Lin Zhaodi, she is your sister. She will take care of you in the future. No matter what happens to you, you can find her. She is your sister, she must do these things for you. She was born for you."
It was also the first time she knew her younger brother's name.
His name is Lin Yaozu.
It represents his parents' expectations for him and that they will bring honor to the family through him.
Her name to her parents is Lin Zhaodi.
Zhaodi, Zhaodi, this name is really disgusting.
She heard Lin Yaozu ask his parents: "Does this include helping me find a wife?"
His parents touched his head and said, "Of course, your sister will get a dowry when she gets married, and that will be for you to marry a wife."
"What if she doesn't give it to me?"
"How dare she not give it to me! We are her parents, and she must give it to me if we ask her to. If she doesn't give it to me, we will sue her in court!"
Look.
Her grandmother raised her and took care of her every night, giving her medicine. Finally, the flower that was about to wither away and was not wanted by her parents was nurtured to bloom. However, her biological parents only saw how much benefit the blooming of the flower could bring to them and what kind of wife their son could marry.
But she has Fang Hui.
Her Fang Hui would risk her life for her. When her parents took her to court, Fang Hui took her to the court and pointed at her parents and cursed them in court.
That was the first time that she felt that the phrase "born but not raised" sounded so pleasant, rather than harsh and unpleasant.
Thanks to Fang Hui's great skills and the judge's evidence collection.
Not only did he prevent her from becoming Lin Zhaodi, but he also forced her parents, who had been targeting her, to pay her child support.
They used the child support and ate the hotpot for the first time, which they had always wanted to eat but had never been able to afford. Sitting in front of the steaming hotpot, they clinked beer glasses.
They started crying while eating, not sure if it was because of the spiciness or the alcohol, but they just hugged each other and cried. After crying, they supported each other and walked home.
The road was very long, but with Fang Hui around it it didn’t seem that long.
She and Fang Hui once thought, if they had a brother, would he protect them like in the novels, and their lives would not be so hard.
However, the reality is that they have no older brothers, only younger brothers.
…
Lin Yuan and Fang Hui found the feeling of being protected by their brother strange and unfamiliar. They had no other reaction for a while and just stared blankly at Fang Jinran and Lin Qinshu.
"Just considering more? My girl will naturally have her family to consider, Ms. Gu, there is no need to consider her like this!" Fang Jinran didn't buy Ms. Gu's nonsense at all.
Ever since he was suddenly called to Kyoto, he knew that someone was causing trouble here.
But he didn't expect that the one who made trouble was actually a member of the Gu family, or an aunt who claimed to be an elder. Although his Fang Hui didn't get along with him when she was a child, she was actually raised by them. Could she bear such grievances now? Even if she could bear it, he, as her brother, would not allow it!
Lin Qinshu was fiddling with the Buddhist beads. He took out a stack of things wrapped in yellow paper from his gown, and handed it to Lin Yuan with his thin white hands.
Lin Yuan looked at the thing in front of her and asked softly, "What is it?"
"Mung bean cakes, the first batch from Huang's this morning."
Huang Ji was the original owner's favorite pastry shop. When she married and moved to Beijing, Lin's parents asked everyone in the family to line up at Huang Ji and bought all the pastries made by Huang Ji that day. They packed them all for her to eat on the way to Beijing.
Although it only takes three hours to fly from Jiangnan to Beijing, the third brother Lin Qinshu took three hours to carry the mung bean cakes.
Lin Yuan didn't know why, but her nose felt a little sour.
If Lin Qinshu knew that she was not the sister he had been thinking about, that sister would have died in the original story and would never come back---
"What's wrong? Is it that the taste is wrong?" Lin Qinshu looked at her holding the mung bean cake but not eating it, thinking that he had kept it in his pocket for too long and that the taste was bad.
Lin Yuan shook his head slightly.
She pinched the yellow paper with her slender fingers and opened it layer by layer. The green mung bean cake inside looked very beautiful lying on the yellow paper, just like the finest imperial green.
She took a piece and put it on top and fed it to Fang Wei: "Try it."
Fang Wei took a bite and said, "Mm, it's delicious!"
Lin Yuan also took a bite of it. It was indeed delicious, sweet but not greasy, and the fragrance lingered. The most important thing was that this was brought by a brother for his sister after three hours of carrying it.
