Chapter 30 Lin Family Family Meeting
When Zhang Guilian saw someone coming out, she opened and closed her mouth as if she wanted to ask something, but she couldn't utter a word for a long time.
Zhaodi murmured quietly, "If I had money, I would buy delicious food for my sister-in-law. Now that she's making money, it's time for her to give back to the family."
Lin Baojun heard this and scolded, "Little sister, did you pay for the food?"
Lin Yu came over and said to his son and daughter-in-law, "The money given by the army was earned by your younger sister herself. It's up to you how you use it."
Lin's father agreed: "That's right, whoever hits someone they shouldn't hit should just split up the family and get out."
Sure enough, after these words were spoken, no one spoke.
Zhaodi still didn't give up: "What about that job? My sister-in-law will be joining the army in the future, and I can't take this job with me."
Lin Qingqing said, "Sixth Brother hasn't come back yet. When everyone is here, we can talk about how to arrange the money and what to do."
Lin Li said, "Let's cook first and talk about it after dinner. Stew the pork and give Xiao Song some more."
No matter what thoughts everyone has in mind, they can only suppress them now and go about their own business. This can also distract them and make time pass faster.
That day Liu Kening brought three pounds of pork, four ribs, and two shanks.
Zhaodi picked a few eggplants from her private plot and stewed them with meat in the evening.
Lin Li cut about a pound of pork, leaving two pounds to calm it down in the well. Lin Qingqing saw that she had cut such a small piece, which was not enough for the whole family, so she asked Lin Li to cut out a larger piece.
As soon as Lin Zhiqing arrived at the door of his house, he smelled the aroma of meat. People from the neighboring yards on both sides were peeking at him at the door, so he slammed the door shut, blocking out all the prying eyes.
"Mom, what are we eating today? I smelled this delicious aroma as soon as I got home. The villagers will say that we are eating meat again."
Lin Xiaotian was in a very good mood. "They can say whatever they want. We used to be so poor that we couldn't even eat meat twice a year, but why didn't anyone say anything? If they start gossiping and talking about us just because we eat meat, then we won't eat it anymore?"
Lin Zhiqing picked up a towel and washed his face, then said to Lin Li, "I just came back and met my uncle's second daughter-in-law. She asked about my younger sister, and I answered her briefly without saying much."
Lin Li snorted heavily, "You have no good intentions. The girls from your uncle's family who married into the city are not as good as your little sister."
Uncle Lin is the only brother of Lin's father's generation. In the early years, when the family was divided, he and his uncle's family had a quarrel over food and never had any contact with each other until they died. Uncle Wang Qiaoyun has been secretly competing with Lin for many years.
The three daughters of my uncle's family have all married into the city, which is a first in the village. Uncle Lin's family has also built three large tiled houses in the village, which is a complete comparison compared to the Lin family.
Wang Qiaoyun heard about Lin Qingqing marrying a soldier these two days, and a military vehicle arrived the next day, so she urged her second daughter-in-law to come and inquire about the news.
Lin Baojun knew that Lin Li and Uncle Li had always disliked each other, so he echoed, "My younger sister will be a soldier in the future, and Uncle Li will never be able to hold his head up in front of you again."
Because of the house and his daughter's marriage to a man in the city, Lin Li always felt inferior to Wang Qiaoyun.
Lin Baojun's words touched Lin Li's heart, and Lin Li couldn't stop smiling.
Lin Qingqing sat beside them obediently, listening to the family members' constant flattery.
As soon as the sun set, the Lin family started to eat dinner.
As usual, all the tables were moved outside for eating. Each table was served with a large pot of stewed eggplant with meat, a large plate of stir-fried beans, and side dishes of brown rice and corn steamed buns.
Now that Song Yiyuan was able to get out of bed, he also sat at the table to eat. Lin Li thoughtfully served a bowl of food and placed it in front of Song Yiyuan.
Lin Li felt that since he had come to the capital, he must be more polite. How could he have such a nice relationship with his family?
The Lin family members were worried about the money and the incident that happened that night, so they just focused on eating, and their chopsticks left afterimages.
After the meal, the sisters-in-law cleaned up the dishes and cleared the table.
After dinner, Song Yiyuan went back to his room to rest. He knew that the Lin family must have something to say.
There was still light in the sky, and the Lin family sat in a circle around the table.
Lin Zhiqing had just heard from his family that Lin Qingqing had sold her son. He was surprised and happy.
Lin Qingqing looked at the people at the table staring at her eagerly and said slowly, "The army gave me two thousand yuan for selling the prescription today. I used half to build a house for my family and send my children to school."
As soon as these words were spoken, everyone at the table was surprised. One thousand yuan is equivalent to one hundred great unity tickets.
