"Auntie, don't listen to my mother-in-law's nonsense. Why would I involve her daughter?"
She's deliberately making fun of me!
There's a saying: "It takes only a mouth to spread a rumor, but it takes a lot of legwork to refute it."
My mother-in-law is a real talent; I've never seen her throw mud at her own daughter-in-law.
Ugh, never mind, just thinking about it makes me feel awful.
I'm going back now.
Seeing that she was about to leave, the aunt quickly grabbed her and asked with a gossipy look:
"Hey, you're out early and coming home late, what are you doing?"
Lin Shih-Han had already prepared her explanation.
"I go to the mountains to pick mushrooms and sell them to people who run restaurants. I can make a few cents to supplement my family's income!"
What else can I do?
Since getting married, Li Laosan has spent his free time drinking at home and has never brought a single penny home.
I don't know how my mother-in-law could lie so blatantly.
The aunt was more concerned with finding ways to make money, and she grabbed Lin Shih-han, who was about to leave, and asked:
"Do you really think mushrooms from the mountains can make a good profit if sold to restaurants?"
Lin Shih-Han really didn't care about the one or two yuan she made selling mushrooms.
"That's right, some restaurants do accept it, but the price isn't high."
I've been working so hard all this time and only managed to sell it for two dollars.
Upon hearing this, the aunt's eyes lit up and darted around.
"Two yuan is fine!"
"Then I'll go up the mountain to find mushrooms to sell!"
Lin Shih-Han nodded with a smile.
“Sure! There are so many mushrooms on that mountain, I can’t pick them all by myself.”
After she finished speaking, she walked towards the Li family's house. As soon as she arrived, she saw that the Li family's gate was wide open.
The black dog blood was still there, clearly indicating it hadn't been cleaned up.
When she went inside, she heard sneezing sounds; it was Li's mother and son sneezing.
Looks like they've all caught a cold!
Lin Shihhan took out a mask and put it on. She leaned out of the window of their room and saw the two of them, each covered by a quilt, shivering on the kang (a heated brick bed).
"Oh, what goes around comes around!"
You two are getting your comeuppance; you've both fallen ill!
I told you guys, if you walk on the dark too often, you're bound to run into a ghost, right? Am I right?
Should I get a doctor for both of you?
After he finished speaking, he saw that the two of them were looking out the window.
Lin Shih-Han chuckled.
"Don't have any illusions about me, I'm just saying that."
"It would be best if you two died of illness; if you didn't, then continue!"
As they were talking, they saw the pigsty and suddenly a good idea came to mind.
This old woman Li is injured and has a cold, yet she still won't stop, and even spreads rumors about herself.
Lin Shih-Han went inside, put on another mask and medical gloves.
He grabbed Granny Li's quilt, pulled her off the kang (a heated brick bed), and dragged her off.
Granny Li was furious at being treated so rudely, and shouted angrily, but her voice came out weak and feeble.
What are you doing?
"Let me go!"
She's shivering from the cold; now that she's out of blankets, she's shaking all over.
"What are you doing? Let me go!"
Not only was her voice weak and feeble, but she also lacked the strength to struggle with Lin Shih-han. Lin Shih-han dragged her into the yard and threw her into the pigsty.
After throwing Granny Li into the pigsty, Lin Shih-han clapped her hands and walked into the house.
The two pigs in the pigpen saw Granny Li come in and thought she was going to feed them, so they started rooting at her.
Just as Lin Shih-han was about to go back inside, she saw Li Lao-san chasing after her.
They casually threw Li Laosan into the pigsty as well.
"Li Laosan, you're such a good-for-nothing!"
"If you're sick, just hurry up and die! I'm waiting to inherit the family fortune!"
Li Laosan looked at her with hatred that made him grit his teeth.
"I won't die, I won't let you succeed, just you wait!"
I'll teach you a lesson tomorrow.
Lin Shih-Han raised an eyebrow and stood at the entrance of the pigsty, watching the mother and son fussing around inside.
"Tomorrow? Great, I'll be waiting to see!"
After saying that, she turned and left, returning to her room to continue studying her high school coursework.
The second-year high school students finished researching it in two days; now they are the third-year students.
In her opinion, it wasn't too difficult.
The questions at this stage are not as difficult as those that follow.
If she encounters something she doesn't know how to do, she can simply search for it on her phone.
Having a cell phone is really useful.
It took Lin Shih-han a while to realize that her phone could actually connect to the internet.
However, that's all we can do; we can't do anything more.
Time flies when you play on your phone for a while. I looked at the time and it was already past 10 p.m., so I quickly went to sleep.
She wanted to see how Li Laosan would treat her the next day.
The next morning, as I stretched and was about to go out, I discovered that several people had come into my room.
It turns out he was Li Laosan's second uncle.
I had been here before, and this time I wandered around his room, looking for something.
Lin Shih-Han listened in the space, oh, so they were looking for her.
Where are they?
Didn't you say it was in this room?
"Why isn't it there?"
The people who came with Li Laosan's second uncle were also searching everywhere.
They even lifted the mat under the kang (heated brick bed) to peek inside. Lin Shih-han rolled her eyes. Could she possibly hide under the mat all by herself?
Suddenly she thought of a good idea: weren't there several poisonous snakes in the space?
A wicked smile curled at the corners of her lips as she opened the cage and released the snakes.
Five venomous snakes were released, and the snakes were quite frightened by being suddenly released!
Those who saw five venomous snakes were even more terrified.
"Ah, a snake!"
"Holy crap, this snake is poisonous!"
"Run! Run!"
