Laughter erupted from not far away, making Yang Lin's solitary figure appear even more isolated.
He stared intently at the figures. The aroma of hot pot still lingered in the air. In previous years, the Lu family always liked to prepare some vegetables and meat for hot pot after the first heavy snowfall of winter.
He disliked it, believing that the Lu family was being extravagant and wasteful. He criticized Lu Rong for doing this and said that the surplus ingredients should be sent to the Yang family to help the orphans and widows there.
Lu Rong always kept his head down, and while cooking the hot pot, he would also prepare a portion for the Yang family.
He was very happy.
until--
The Lu family's sons grew up and refused to share the food with the Yang family. Yang Lin hated his three children who carried the Lu family's bloodline.
At this moment, Yang Lin swallowed hard.
He hadn't had a full meal in many days. His mother had taken all the money and noodles distributed by the brigade per capita. His unfilial son, Lu Yunqi, never thought of him, and his unfilial daughter, Lu Xingxing, didn't come to take care of her old father either.
He looked at Lu Xingxing expectantly, hoping that Lu Xingxing would invite him to his home for dinner.
No one gave Yang Lin a single glance until the door closed.
inside the house
The room was filled with a delicious aroma. Panpan and Luhui watched longingly as the adults put slices of meat and vegetables into the pot. The two little ones sat on stools and obediently let the adults put bibs on them.
Lu Xingxing poured all the pork slices in, along with some newly developed green vegetables from the greenhouse.
Fresh, fragrant, and tender.
"Second Sister-in-law, try this peanut sprout, it's really crunchy." Lu Xingxing picked up a piece of peanut sprout with her chopsticks and gave it to Qiao Wanyue.
Qiao Wanyue lowered her head and tasted it. "Not bad."
Lu Xingxing smiled and served food to everyone.
The two little ones don't need special care. Just put the piping hot food into their bowls, and they'll choose what they like to eat. The dipping sauce is a mixture of vinegar and sesame oil, with some coriander (also known as cilantro) added.
Outside, snow was falling heavily, while inside, the group of people were sweating profusely from eating.
A short while later, there was a knock on the door.
Lu Yunqi stopped his sister from getting up and got up to open the door himself.
He opened the door, saw a figure, and slammed the door shut again.
Yang Lin quickly reached in and got his hand pinched hard.
Even though it hurts, he doesn't back down.
Lu Yunqi frowned. "Get out."
Yang Lin, shameless as ever, said, "Boss, that's the tone you use when you talk to your dad."
Lu Yunqi: "I don't have a father."
Yang Lin said, "I'm hungry. Give me some food. If you don't, I'll report you to the police for abusing the elderly."
He heard from others that if children and grandchildren do not support their elderly parents, he can report them to the police.
The laws that have been in place since ancient times.
Lu Yunqi had no choice but to intervene.
Lu Yunqi was so angry he wanted to grind his teeth.
He admired Yang Lin's shamelessness more and more.
"Brother, come back first." Lu Xingxing came out carrying a small cloth bag, pulled her older brother aside, and stuffed it directly into Yang Lin's arms. "Here, this is a gift for you. Get lost."
Yang Lin stared longingly into the room.
He was clutching the small cloth bag tightly in his hands.
He smelled the aroma of the meat slices.
After being kicked out of the Lu family, he never ate meat again.
He's so greedy.
He had never thought much of Lu Xingxing's daughter. "Let me in, or I'll report you."
Lu Xingxing smiled and kicked him in the chest.
Yang Lin staggered and squatted on the ground.
He berated Lu Xingxing for being unfilial.
Lu Xingxing's house was surrounded by fields, and with the heavy snow falling everywhere, no one could hear Yang Lin's shouts.
