After returning home, Li Mu told Lin Wan about his encounter with Chen Hao today.
Lin Wan said a little worriedly: "Is he taking revenge on you? You two had a bad argument before, and I... I always feel that he is unreliable."
Li Mu nodded and said, "I think so too. I plan to go to the state-owned restaurant tomorrow to see if they want it."
After all, fisheries are now unwilling to wholesale fish from other channels. Currently, they can only sell part of the fish through restaurants or their own grilled fish shops.
Wait until later and then slowly find some sales channels.
Li Mu knew Lin Wan’s concerns, but he told her some of his follow-up considerations, and Lin Wan also expressed her support.
——
Next day
Li Mu sent a message to Brother Shen on his pager early in the morning, asking him to call back after seeing the message.
After agreeing with Brother Shen to meet in Qingshui Village, Li Mu got on the bus back to the village. The bus was driving on a small mountain road. Looking at the village surrounded by mountains at the foot of the mountain, he felt a sense of being untouched by worldly affairs.
...
...
Li Mu closed his eyes, feeling this rare leisure time.
Maybe he was really too tired recently. Li Mu narrowed his eyes slightly and fell into a deep sleep. Some fragments of his wife's death in the previous life kept flashing through his mind.
I suddenly woke up and looked at the people around me. My originally uneasy heart calmed down.
I didn't know why I suddenly felt uneasy and my heart was beating fast.
After arriving at Qingshui Village, Li Mu hurriedly walked to the village supply and marketing cooperative and called home.
Hearing the familiar voice on the phone, Li Mu's originally anxious heart calmed down. He chatted with Lin Wan for a few words and then hung up the phone.
But what Li Mu didn't expect was that not long after hanging up the phone, when Lin Wan was still standing at the supply and marketing cooperative and had not yet returned home, she saw her family members at the entrance of the alley whom she hadn't seen for a long time. She originally thought it was a warm reunion scene, but when they met, Lin's father wanted to take Lin Wan home without saying anything.
He also asked Lin Wan and Li Mu to get married and cut off all contact.
——
After hearing Li Mu hang up the phone, Lin Wan thought that some seasonings at home were running low, so she stood in the supply and marketing cooperative and chatted with her aunt.
A man with a serious face came to the entrance of the alley, carrying large and small bags in his hands, and walked towards Lin Wan.
This caused the people around to talk in low voices.
"Whose family are these? They are carrying so many bags and look so unhappy."
"Yes, he looks well dressed, he must be an official."
Hearing everyone's discussion, Lin Wan, who was originally chatting with her aunt who worked at the supply and marketing cooperative, looked over curiously.
You wouldn't have known until you saw it that it was actually your father whom you haven't seen for many years.
Lin Wan hurriedly went up to him and said, "Dad!"
The man, who had originally had a serious face, froze in place when he heard his daughter's voice and looked over.
Seeing that Lin Wan's face had become thin, Lin's father walked up to her quickly with some heartache and hugged his daughter in his arms.
Lin Wan looked at her father with graying hair on his temples, tears welling up in her eyes.
"Wan Wan, how come you've become so thin? You used to have more flesh on your cheeks. Did that bastard Li Mu do something to you again?"
Hearing her father's caring words, Lin Wan could no longer hold back her tears. She buried her head in her father's arms and sobbed.
Seeing Lin Wan like this, Lin's father became more determined that the two should divorce.
I don’t know how long Lin Wan cried before she came out of her father’s arms, wiped her tears, and took her father back home.
As soon as he entered the house, Father Lin looked around Lin Wan and Li Mu's home. Although all the necessary electrical appliances were available, the house was still a little too poor, and the walls were already mottled and cracked.
As he watched, Father Lin kept shaking his head.
After checking the whole house, Father Lin asked, "Where is Ruoruo? Where is Ruoruo?"
Lin Wan pointed to the yard next door and said, "She's playing next door. I'll go pick her up now."
Father Lin waved his hand, stepped out of the room, took out some specialties he bought from his hometown, and said to Lin Wan: "I heard you say before that the aunt next door is good to you."
"Dad will take you to see it."
After saying that, he walked towards the next yard.
Ruoruo was sitting under a tree in the small courtyard, reading a picture book obediently.
Lin Wan followed her father's footsteps and walked to Aunt Wang's house. She shouted into the door, "Aunt, it's me, Xiao Wan."
Aunt Wang, who was knitting a sweater, heard Lin Wan's voice, opened the door, and was about to talk to Lin Wan about Ruoruo with a smile, when she saw a strange middle-aged man standing next to Lin Wan.
"Who is this?"
He asked with a little surprise.
Lin Wan pointed to her father beside her and said, "This is my father. He came to see me today. When he heard that Ruoruo was here, he wanted to come over to thank you for taking care of us."
Father Lin also smiled and nodded continuously, indicating that Lin Wan was right.
Hearing what Lin Wan said, Aunt Wang smiled and made way for the two of them, saying with a smile: "No need to come specially, I treat Wan Wan as a child."
"That's different. If you hadn't helped her, I don't know what she would have done if she had nothing to rely on here."
Father Lin said seriously.
Ruoruo heard the sound of several people chatting, raised her head, looked at Lin Wan, and shouted happily: "Mom!"
After saying that, he rushed towards Lin Wan.
Lin Wan squatted down, hugged Ruoruo into her arms, brought her to Lin's father and said, "Ruoruo, call me grandpa."
Ruoruo looked at the somewhat unfamiliar middle-aged man in front of her, and hugged Lin Wan tightly, somewhat at a loss, avoiding the somewhat fiery gaze of Lin's father.
Seeing Ruoruo like this, Father Lin was not anxious. He knew that Ruoruo had never seen her grandfather since she was a child, so it was normal for her to have such a reaction.
At the beginning, Lin's father and mother did not agree with Lin Wan and Li Mu being together. Unexpectedly, Lin Wan was willing to break off relations with her family in order to be with Li Mu.
Father Lin was also furious and yelled at Lin Wan, "Get out and don't come back."
Because of this sentence, Lin's father and mother haven't seen Lin Wan for several years, and they don't even know when Ruoruo was born.
It was only after Lin's father deliberately inquired about these things that he learned about them, and he found out that Li Mu often bullied Lin Wan at home.
So, Lin's father rushed here from his hometown, just to make Lin Wan and Li Mu divorce. He took Lin Wan and Ruoruo back with him.
When he really saw his daughter, Father Lin insisted on taking Lin Wan back no matter what, otherwise she would suffer here.
However, Father Lin was not in a hurry to tell Lin Wan about asking her to divorce. Instead, he planned to first understand the situation between the two of them and to break up completely.
Lin Wan and Li Mu cannot have any more connection.
