Chapter 450 Real Life
Zhao Hu looked at everyone, then at Lin Heng. At this time, a large number of people had gathered outside, and his girlfriend Jin Yan also appeared in the crowd.
This made Zhao Hu even more passive and he was reluctant to take any action.
Everyone started talking about him, and Tian Dongfu spoke again: "A real man should admit his mistakes, don't be like a woman."
He could have given a better step, but he didn't.
"Lin Heng, you are amazing. Let's just ride on the donkey and look at the account book and see what happens!"
Zhao Hu did not apologize. He said something tough, turned around and walked out of the crowd.
"Come back, you kid..."
Zhao Xiancheng said this, then turned his head to look at Lin Heng to express his apology, "Look, this incident was caused by our Zhao Hu, who was wrong. This kid is just a jerk. Uncle apologizes to you on his behalf, so don't take it to heart."
Lin Heng glanced at him, knowing that he had deliberately not held his son back, but he didn't care much, because today's incident had already made Zhao Hu uncomfortable enough. He smiled and said, "It's okay. It's normal for young people to have a bad temper."
Zhao Xiancheng smiled and said, "Yeah, I'll go back and teach that kid a lesson, and ask him to come and apologize in person some other day."
"Come in and have a drink of water before you leave, Uncle Zhao." Lin Heng tried to keep him.
"No, no!"
Zhao Xiancheng said something to Tian Dongfu next to him and walked away quickly.
Lu Honghai said unhappily, "Lin Heng, isn't this too easy for this kid? At least he should be beaten up."
"Forget it, uncle, it's not a big deal." Lin Heng waved his hand. He was too lazy to make a big deal out of it. Seeing Zhao Hu suffer a setback was enough for him.
"Lin Heng, you are sensible and mature. These brats can't compare with you at all." Tian Dongfu said with a smile.
After he finished speaking, he looked at everyone and said, "Okay, everyone go away, there's nothing else to do."
"Lin Heng, I'm really sorry this time." Jin Cheng next to him apologized to Lin Heng and took his son Jin Hai away.
Liu Sheng's father wanted to beat his useless son, but Lin Heng stopped him: "Uncle Liu, Liu Sheng did nothing wrong. It's none of his business."
After that, he patted Liu Sheng on the shoulder and said sincerely: "It's okay, I understand you. Come to my house when you have time, and we can reminisce about the past."
Although Liu Sheng did not stand up just now, it did not mean that they had become mortal enemies for him. It just meant that this childhood friend was not particularly trustworthy, but they could still be ordinary friends.
Moreover, my generosity and sincerity in forgiving him will make him cherish this friendship even more. If Zhao Hu and Jin Hai really take any extreme actions, he will definitely warn them.
"Lin Heng!" Liu Sheng raised his head and looked at Lin Heng with some gratitude. He didn't expect Lin Heng to be so generous and tolerant. If it were him, he would definitely not put on a good face.
"It's okay. It's not convenient to reminisce now because there are so many people around. You must come over when you are free later." Lin Heng squeezed his arm again.
"Yes!" Liu Sheng nodded heavily and left with his father.
Tian Dongfu was watching from the side and admired Lin Heng more and more. He was so young but his methods were extraordinary. In just a few moves, he made Liu Sheng his close friend, which was equivalent to placing one of his own people next to Zhao Hu. It was really not easy.
After Liu Sheng left, Lin Heng smiled and looked at Tian Dongfu and said, "Uncle Tian, thank you for coming over to help me. Let's go inside and have some tea and chat slowly."
Tian Dongfu smiled and shook his head: "It's not a big deal. This is what I should do. I'll go back now. Your aunt has already prepared breakfast."
After Lin Heng invited him again and again, Tian Dongfu finally came into the house and had a cup of tea. His elder brother and uncle also came with him.
After chatting for a while, Tian Dongfu left without staying, but he was very satisfied with Lin Heng.
After everyone had left, Lin Yue spoke up, "Brother, Zhao Hu is not going to take revenge behind my back, after all, I suffered such a big loss today."
Lu Honghai also said: "I am worried about this too. That guy looks very arrogant."
"There's no need to worry about it. He's just furious and powerless. It's highly unlikely that he will do that." Lin Heng shook his head.
Zhao Hu is not an old bachelor with no worries. You have to be careful if you mess with that kind of person, but it is highly unlikely that Zhao Hu would do that, because he has to consider the consequences before doing anything.
Moreover, it can be said that most people in the village are on his side. If Zhao Hu really wants to do something, it will be difficult for him to do it with so many eyes watching.
"It's better to be careful." Lu Honghai said.
"I understand. I will be careful." Lin Heng nodded in agreement.
They chatted for a while, and then the door outside was pushed open with a creak. Mother Lin walked in quickly with something in her hand and asked, "I heard something happened here. Is everyone okay?"
"You didn't fight with anyone, did you?" Lin's father asked hurriedly. Caiyun walked to Xiulan and asked in a low voice.
They had been feeding the sheep at Hongfeng Mountain earlier. The ewes were about to give birth recently, so they had to take care of them more often. They just heard the news and rushed over to find that everything seemed to be over.
"It's all fine. We didn't fight, we just had a few arguments." Lin Heng said with a smile.
"I'm glad you're okay."
Seeing that everyone was indeed fine, Lin's mother was relieved.
Then the two elders learned the whole story. After listening to it, they were speechless and felt that Zhao Hu was crazy.
But Lin Heng understood that he was angry because someone he looked down upon was doing better than him, and coupled with the ridicule from the villagers, it was natural that he came to find him in a fit of anger.
Many people do things without thinking. If they thought about everything, there wouldn't be so many illogical things.
"Stop talking. My chicken will get cold if it's not heated up. Let's prepare lunch." Lin Heng stood up and said.
The children have recovered and started playing in the main room.
Lu Honghai stood up and said, "Then I will go back too. I am here to pick up your aunt. I have lived here long enough. Now the child is a little older, so we can go back to the mountains."
"Uncle, why are you in such a hurry? Let's finish lunch before leaving." Xiulan pulled him to sit down.
"Yes, let's eat first." Lin Heng also said. Lin's father and mother also dissuaded him and went over to pick up Zhang Gaolian and the child.
During the conversation, I wanted them to stay here for a few more days, but they both shook their heads, saying that they had already lived here long enough and it would be embarrassing to let them stay any longer.
Lin Heng quickly killed the chicken, and Lin's mother brought the chicken into the kitchen to cook with Xiulan. Caiyun just came back yesterday afternoon, so Lin's mother didn't ask her to help, but only asked her to take care of Luming Duheng.
"Caiyun, how do you feel about studying downstairs? Are you being bullied?" Lu Honghai asked with concern during the conversation.
Caiyun smiled and shook her head: "No, uncle, the school down there is very good and the classmates are very friendly."
As the best high school in the city, discipline is very high and there are basically no accidents.
"That's good." Lu Honghai nodded and started chatting with Lin Heng again.
He wanted to go hunting again this year, but Lin Heng said that it was highly unlikely that he could go as he had other things to do next. He would have to wait until winter to go hunting in the nearby mountains.
It was very difficult to go to the mountains for a month as it was last year, and there won’t be much opportunity in the future. Moreover, with the establishment of various animal protection laws, hunting has gradually become impossible.
"Okay then, we can just fight nearby." Lu Honghai nodded, feeling a little regretful.
Zhang Gaolian also said: "We have to plant fruit trees and dig out the astragalus in a while, so you don't have much time."
"That's true." Lu Honghai thought about it and found that he seemed to have no time, and it seemed not possible for his wife to take care of the child alone without him.
So he couldn't help but sigh, feeling that after getting married he was no longer as free as before.
“The meal is ready!”
Soon, Lin's mother came out of the kitchen and told Lin Heng and the others to set the table and eat. Today, it would be just their family and their uncle's family.
His eldest brother was going to have dinner with his father-in-law and didn't come. His third uncle brought a letter in advance, but the other party didn't come as he wanted to stay at home to celebrate the holiday with Lin Heng's grandmother.
The meal lasted more than an hour and everyone was a little tipsy. The food was very rich and everyone enjoyed it very much.
After dinner, they drank some tea to sober up, and then Lu Honghai and Zhang Gaolian got up: "Let's eat and drink well and leave."
"It's okay to stay here for a while. The house is empty anyway." Father Lin advised.
But Lu Honghai had already decided to go back today. It was useless to persuade him. In the end, he packed up his things and left, even refusing Lin's father's escort.
After returning, Father Lin took another sip of tea and looked at Lin Heng and said, "Have you found a new, reliable clerk for the purchasing station?"
Lin Heng nodded and said, "I brought the letter to Li Shiwei and planned to have him come down to give it a try."
He was quite confident in Li Shiwei. He could also learn some skills of opening a store here, and he could start a small business of his own in the future.
He is not afraid that others will find out about his purchasing station and open another one to compete with him. Opening a purchasing station requires a lot of capital reserves, and it takes an average person seven or eight years to save up enough money.
"That's fine. It's better than just finding an outsider." Father Lin nodded.
Mother Lin looked at Lin Heng and asked, "It turns out that Wang Zhou was a good guy. You didn't drive him away, but did you do something else in the city?"
Just as Lin Heng was about to speak, his mother interrupted him again, "Don't say you didn't, you must have, you can't hide it from us."
Lin Heng nodded helplessly and said, "Indeed, there is, but it's not open yet. I'll tell you when it's done."
"Xiu Lan, do you know?" Mother Lin looked at Xiu Lan again.
Xiulan smiled and nodded: "He told me, but he was afraid that you would worry, so he asked me not to tell you."
Mother Lin was speechless: "As long as you don't mess around, we will definitely support you."
"Mom, don't worry, I didn't do anything stupid." Lin Heng said with a smile.
Caiyun also spoke for Lin Heng: "My sister-in-law has agreed, there must be no problem. My brother probably just doesn't want you to worry."
Father Lin said with emotion: "Let him struggle. I have also seen clearly that life requires struggle to achieve something."
After finishing his tea, he stood up and said, "I'm going back. The sheep are about to give birth, so I have to keep an eye on them."
Sheep will be born from now until the end of the year. If all are born, there will be about a hundred lambs born.
There were originally thirty ewes, and 25 of them gave birth in the last month of last year. They were all bred in May and June this year.
Black goats reach sexual maturity very early. They start to go into estrus at four months old and can begin to give birth and become pregnant at six months old.
Normally, it is possible to have two babies a year. Lin Heng did not manage it to such an extreme level, and the frequency of having three babies in two years was about right.
"Do you need my help, Dad?" Lin Heng asked.
"No need, I can handle most things. I'll come to you if I encounter a difficult delivery." Father Lin waved his hand and walked out.
After Lin's father left and Lin's mother Caiyun was still playing here, Lin Heng was drinking tea calmly. After drinking tea for a while, he went out and saw Liu Sheng walking by.
"Lin Heng!" Seeing Lin Heng, Liu Sheng greeted him warmly.
"Let's go to my house for tea." Lin Heng called him into the house with a smile, brought the tea tray to the pavilion in the backyard, and chatted with him while drinking tea.
They talked about their hearts and also about Liu Sheng's development with Zhao Hu over the years. They had been running some small business reselling jobs, getting cheap industrial products from the city and selling them in the mountainous areas, or reselling goods from big cities to small cities.
Lin Heng also learned that Zhao Hu came back this time to propose marriage to Jin Yan's family and planned to get married at the end of the year. This made Lin Heng even more certain that Zhao Hu would not do anything extreme.
At the same time, he also wanted to see Jin Yan and Zhao Hu get married, to see what would happen when the two of them were together.
After the chat, Lin Heng sent Liu Sheng back. He still understood Liu Sheng and did not have much ill will towards him. He just said that he would no longer be a close friend with him without reservation.
People always have various difficulties.
Soon it was evening, and Lin's mother and Caiyun also returned to Hongfeng Mountain. Xiulan gave them a lot of mooncakes she had made herself.
Although it rained a little in the morning, you can still see the moon at night. It is big and bright, making the night almost as bright as day. As long as you are not in a dense forest, you don't need any additional light to walk.
"Dad, the moon is so big tonight. Is there really the fairy Chang'e on it?" Xiaoxia said, pointing to the moon in the sky.
"Dad doesn't know either, after all, he has never been there." Lin Heng said with a smile.
Xiaoxia tilted her head and raised her hand and said, "I guess there must be one. The fairy Chang'e must be as beautiful as her mother."
"Hahaha. You're right." Lin Heng laughed out loud when he heard this. His daughter, even at such a young age, could already flatter her mother.
"You want to eat mooncakes again, right?" Xiulan was also amused and said while touching her daughter's little face.
"Yes, Mom!" Xiaoxia giggled.
“I want one too!”
“I want that too!”
Compared to their elder sister, Luming and Duheng, who had just learned to speak, were far behind. They could only babble and run around. However, they were both considered smart and learned to speak quickly.
"Then eat another one and eat the rest tomorrow morning."
Xiulan smiled and gave Xiaoxia a mooncake, then broke one open and fed it to Luming and Du Heng.
The children’s favorite mooncakes are the red bean paste and honey mooncakes she makes, and they also like the chestnut and peanut mooncakes, but they think the others are just average.
Lin Heng prefers mooncakes with lean meat and coriander filling. Xiulan has researched all kinds of strange flavors, and he likes this one.
After watching the moon for a while and drinking two pots of tea, they returned to the house.
The Mid-Autumn Festival of the year passed simply like this. For Lin Heng, it was a perfect Mid-Autumn Festival.
