Liu Shi had indeed gained a lot of experience, so she no longer acted like the Liu Shi who used to protect herself and Xiao Man'er by whimpering.
She had heard a lot of gossip about the inner workings of wealthy families and knew that servants who had signed indentures were worse than cats and dogs. So she didn’t care at all whether Da Niu could get back safely, whether he would encounter any accidents, or whether he might die on the way.
Since giving birth to her son, Madam Liu has become much more assertive and assertive, which has influenced Lin Chaodong. Although he doesn't listen to everything Madam Liu says, he rarely argues with her.
Unless his own interests are threatened, such as when he was injured and Liu was about to rise to a higher position than him, causing his pride to be hurt, he would confront Liu head-on and try to overpower her.
Now that Da Niu isn't his son, and since Liu has said so, let her do whatever she wants.
However, there's still something for Da Niu to do, so he can't leave for the time being.
"Let him rest for a couple of days to recover. There's no rush."
Liu didn't refute. She had prepared the meal, but she was only half full. She had no mood to chat with Lin Chaodong. She picked up her son and went back to her room.
No sooner had she gone in than Madam Liu came out, extending her hand to Lin Chaodong and saying:
"Where's the money?"
She thought Lin Chaodong's injuries were very serious and that he might suffer some long-term effects, becoming a cripple, so she gave him most of the money she had on her.
Since his injuries weren't a problem, and the two of them didn't even take any medicine, if they only went for a medical check-up, she shouldn't have spent much money.
"Um, this, that..."
Lin Chaodong looked at the sky and the ground, but dared not look at Liu Shi.
In short, he couldn't bear to return the money to Liu.
It was only when he was penniless that he realized the importance of money and the predicament of being unable to make even a hero go down in poverty.
So, now that the money is in his hands, why should he return it to Liu? This money clearly belongs to him!
"Give me!"
Liu said in a deep voice.
"No way! Why should I give it to you? This is all my money!"
Lin Chaodong stood up, looked down at Liu Shi, and said in a low voice, his tone fierce but his voice weak.
"How did it become yours? I worked so hard to save it up!"
Liu refused to budge an inch.
Lin Chaodong retorted:
"Even you are mine, so of course the money is mine too!"
After saying that, he hoisted the person onto his shoulder, went into the house, slammed the door, and in one swift motion, put the child in a corner and threw Liu Shi, whom he had been carrying on his shoulder, onto the bed.
He finally proved once again that he was her man!
Even if she rises to a higher social status and becomes half the master of that family, Lin Chaodong will still be her man!
The big cow outside listened to the creaking and humming of the most primitive nocturnal music inside, drank the dishwater in its bowl, looked at the night sky above, and had a smile on its lips.
That's great! He's finally going back, finally going back to that "home" where he has his mother and younger brother.
Although he still had to wait a few more days, although he didn't know the way "home," and although he might encounter unexpected events on the way, the thought of going back and seeing his mother and younger brother filled him with happiness, and even his dreams were filled with sweetness.
Mother, brother, wait for me, I'm going back soon.
