If Master Huang had offered his money when things were going badly, he wouldn't have been beaten up and almost lost his life.
But when it comes to money, who can really give it up without hesitation?
Although Lin Chaonan knew what was going on and what the right thing to do was, he would probably have the same result if he had encountered that situation.
After all, making money isn't easy!
Unless absolutely necessary, who would stand by and watch their hard-earned money slip into someone else's pocket so easily?
He was overthinking it. Anyway, because of all these reasons, Lin Chaonan's resentment towards Huang Banxian gradually faded. When he heard that the other party had woken up, he naturally wanted to go and see him.
Of course, he also had his own little schemes, unlike Lin Chaobei who was so pure.
"How is Master Huang?"
Lin Chaonan put down the hoe and basket, scooped water from the water vat into the washbasin, washed the herbs a couple of times, and then asked Erhu, who had taken the basket and was preparing to clean the herbs.
"Master Huang has woken up and is taking his medicine now. Fourth Master asked my mother to cook rice porridge and stew a pot of chicken soup, saying that Master Huang should eat something light first and then drink the chicken soup tonight to nourish himself."
Erhu pulled over a wooden stump and sat down, cleaning the medicinal herbs while recounting Lin Chaobei's actions.
Lin Chaonan's lips twitched as he listened.
Rice porridge?
chicken soup?
These are things that his family can't afford to eat every day. He never expected that the kid would be willing to feed someone who's trying to scam people. He really didn't know what to say.
If Lin Chaonan knew the term "Holy Father," he would probably have unhesitatingly labeled Lin Chaobei with it.
In Lin Chaonan's view, the fact that his family was willing to forgive Huang Banxian and save his life was already an act of kindness. If Huang Banxian had other uses, he might treat him better. In any case, he would never treat him with special treatment just because he was an old man.
Unfortunately, he has a younger brother who's holding him back, so it's uncertain whether his plan will even work.
Whether it works or not, we'll only know after we try.
Lin Chaonan didn't even wipe the water off his face. He just shook the water off his hands and went to the west room.
"Grandpa, how are you feeling?"
He ignored Lin Chaobei, who was helping Huang Banxian wash his body, and asked Huang Banxian directly.
"Hmm, I feel sticky and uncomfortable all over, my chest hurts terribly, and my stomach is growling with hunger. Is the rice porridge ready yet?"
Huang Banxian had absolutely no sense of politeness. He ordered his savior to wash his body, and he was almost completely naked in front of his savior without any embarrassment. He even had the mind to think about food. His skin was truly thick.
Of course, if he were more shameless, he wouldn't have swindled so much money and then become the target of another group of people.
"The rice porridge still needs to cook for a while, old man, please be patient and wait a bit longer."
After saying that, Lin Chaonan sat on the edge of the kang (a heated brick bed) and watched Lin Chaobei wash Huang Banxian's body.
To be honest, Lin Chaobei is quite caring. He was very careful when turning me over, and he wiped me very carefully and thoroughly, even wiping my armpits several times. What's more, he even leaned over and smelled me...
Lin Chaonan couldn't stand it anymore and turned his head to look outside the door.
So he didn't see that Huang Banxian was being served comfortably, and the expression on his face when he looked at Lin Chaobei was one of undisguised satisfaction.
