"You skipped work again. You'll be happy when Mom and we all starve to death."
My mother is under a lot of pressure, but she's exhausted and doesn't have the energy to educate her son.
Xiaohua was different; she thought her brother had changed his personality.
But after only one day of changing his ways, he started skipping work again.
Thinking that all my hard work today will be wasted, and half of yesterday's hard work will also be wasted.
Heartbroken, Xiaohua ate porridge while tears welled in her eyes.
His nose twitched intermittently.
Lin Mo silently endured the meal and went to the kitchen without saying a word.
They killed all three rabbits.
They were roasted together on the stove.
Soon, the aroma of roasted meat reached Xiaohua, whose nose was as sensitive as a dog's. She dashed from the main room to the yard, and then from the yard into the kitchen.
See those golden-brown, juicy roasted rabbits? There are three of them, too.
"Oh my god!" A surprised exclamation burst from her mouth.
My mouth is watering uncontrollably.
However, while she was craving the food, she also began to feel sad.
It must have been roasted for that female educated youth; how could she possibly have kept the meat from between her own brother's fingers?
Lin Mo skillfully roasted the rabbits. Once they were almost done, he tore one of them apart and filled a whole basin with the meat.
"Take it and eat it."
Upon hearing this, Lin Xiaohua was taken aback.
Then, he hurriedly grabbed the basin, not having time to think or wanting to think any further, and carried it to the main room as if he were afraid it would be taken away.
"Hey? Did your brother get you this roasted rabbit?"
"Mmm! Mom, eat quickly! Otherwise he might change his mind and we won't get any food!"
The sound of gluttonous eating came from the main room. Lin Mo listened with satisfaction for a while, then squatted in the kitchen and gnawed on a rabbit leg by himself.
After eating the rabbit leg, my stomach was almost half full, but that was about right.
The rabbit skin was slowly roasted over a low flame while being kneaded until soft, and then saved to make a fur hat to cover both the younger sister and the mother.
You won't have to worry about hurting your ears in winter.
My little sister is young and has delicate skin. Every winter, her ears get frostbite and swell up, turning purple and swollen like two small eggplants hanging on either side of her cheeks.
"Brother, can you please stop skipping work?"
While kneading the rabbit skin, Xiaohua's face was covered in oil, but she still held a sliver of hope that she could persuade her older brother:
"Go to the team this afternoon, and you'll only lose 6 points. Go ahead and go."
Lin Mo smiled and gestured for her to look at the roasted rabbit:
“If I go there, I won’t be able to let you and your mother eat meat every day. I was thinking of going fishing this afternoon.”
Fish… Xiaohua swallowed again.
The thought of her mother's hard work going to waste and the allure of the fish plunged Xiaohua into a fierce internal conflict.
Lin Mo wrapped up the other two roasted rabbits and was about to leave.
Sure enough, he still relentlessly pursued the female educated youth.
The last glimmer of hope that my brother had just begun to have was shattered once again.
The reason we were able to keep one this time was simply because we had three in total and had some left over; it wasn't because we were truly blind.
Lin Mo planned to take one of the two roasted rabbits to Su Xiaoxiao's house and the other to the production team to exchange for some necessities with the team leader, Chen Gang.
He had only gone halfway when four male educated youths who had been sent to the countryside suddenly appeared in front of him.
Xu Zhenting, the leader, had been eyeing him for a long time.
Even if the wind is strong and you can't smell it from a distance, you can still see his bulging old steaming cloth at a glance, with some of the yellowish-brown tar that you only see on meat.
He immediately gathered three familiar educated youths and intercepted Lin Mo halfway.
"What are you holding? Take it out and let me see," Xu Zhenting said to Lin Mo in a commanding tone.
As always, he reprimanded the country bumpkin servants he utterly despised.
Lin Mo sneered dismissively, trying to walk around them and continue on his way, but he was blocked on both sides.
Alright, Lin Mo decided to show them.
Slightly loosen one corner of the steaming cloth, and after they glanced at it, quickly wrap it up again.
Just one glance was enough to leave the educated youth speechless and drooling.
"Slurp, a whole roasted rabbit, wow!" Liang Zhenguo exclaimed first.
"Once you've finished reading, move aside. A good dog doesn't block the way," Lin Mo said neither humbly nor arrogantly.
Upon hearing this, Xu Zhenting's face showed a hint of surprise and then turned dark.
Then, he quickly put on a hypocritical intellectual smile:
"Oh, you're sending this to Jiang Ying, right? Here, just give me the things, and I'll take them to her for you."
Lin Mo chuckled twice:
"What nonsense are you spouting? You didn't give it to Jiang Ying, so get out of the way."
Seeing that Lin Mo was completely different from his previous submissive self, and even had a bit of a tougher side?
Xu Zhenting felt a surge of anger rising within him.
"How dare you talk to us like that!" he suddenly yelled at Lin Mo, trying to intimidate him with his loud and boisterous manner.
"You start taking advantage of my polite words, don't you?"
"Leave your things here! Get out of here!"
"Hey guys, surround him!"
As soon as he finished speaking, the three educated youths immediately followed, and in the blink of an eye, they blocked Lin Mo from all sides, preventing him from moving forward, backward, left, or right.
This bastard is actually starting to act unreasonable and trying to bully me?
I used to be weak-willed and only listened to my own head; that was in the past.
Now? Hmph.
Lin Mo bent down and slowly placed the two packages on the ground, while simultaneously turning his neck from side to side, cracking and loosening his bones.
Seeing that Lin Mo had indeed given in, Xu Zhenting was immediately smug.
Just as he was feeling smug and careless, Lin Mo suddenly stood up, his hard skull unexpectedly pressing against Xu Zhenting's chin.
