Chapter 16 Beautiful Fourth Aunt



It's almost seven o'clock.

Master Zhao installed the toilet and did some advertising before leaving.

"This thing is used by people in the city. You can try it first. If it works for you, please help us promote it."

"Okay, I won't see you off, Uncle Zhao."

After asking, Lin Lu found out that the toilet was not cheap.

Only at this moment did she realize that she couldn't lie down completely.

Money is so extravagant these days. From the wheelchair I bought yesterday to the crutches and toilet I bought today, it’s almost costing me two months’ salary.

What if Song Chen wants to divorce her in the future? Although he can get half of her property, it is not enough for her to spend her whole life. She still has two elderly people to support.

Therefore, no matter where you are, making money is the top priority, and it is impossible to just sit back and relax.

Introduction to Song family members

Brother Song Lei is twelve years older than Song Chen and has three children. The eldest son got married two years ago, the second daughter also got married last year, and the third son is in the second year of junior high school this year. However, after buying a house in the city, the family rarely comes back.

The second brother Song Songda is eight years older than Song Chen. He has an older son and two twin daughters. The older son will get married at the end of this year, and the two daughters are in their second year of high school this year.

The third brother Song Yuan is five years older than Song Chen. He has a son and a daughter. The eldest daughter is no longer in school and works in the orchard. The youngest son is in the first grade of junior high school this year.

Li Xianglian mentioned to Lin Lu that people from the Song family would come over for dinner today.

Lin Lu had no impression of other people in the Song family. She only remembered that her mother-in-law was a pretty good person.

Be sensible, grateful, and open in doing things.

Otherwise, Song Chen would not have been allowed to become the son-in-law of the Lin family.

Li Xianglian said that Lin Lu died of cervical cancer when she was a sophomore in college.

Originally, this disease could be cured. In order not to burden her children, she didn't tell anyone and kept it a secret. Whenever she felt unwell, she would go to Xiao Hei's clinic for infusion. In the end, her body was worn out and there was no cure. Otherwise, she could have lived for another few decades.

Lin Lu didn't know it at that time, and several months had passed when he received the news.

She remembered that it was Song Chen who wrote her a letter, asking her if she wanted to go back. She didn't know where the letter was sent to, and it was already late when it reached Lin Lu.

She wrote a letter back, but she didn't know if Song Chen had seen it.

"Uncle Si, Aunt Si, we are here." The voice coming from the yard interrupted Lin Lu's thoughts.

"Wow, Fourth Aunt, you're really awake. I thought my mother was lying to me." Song Xixi, the eldest daughter of the second brother, is a lively girl.

"Sister, please keep your voice down." Song Jiajia patted her sister.

"Fourth uncle, where is Jingbei?" Song Nan, the youngest son of Song Sange, looked around for several weeks but didn't see anyone.

Lin Lu pointed to Lin Jingbei's room: "In the room."

The adults who came slowly said: "Alright, keep your voices down and don't disturb Fourth Aunt."

Lin Lu greeted them warmly: "Brother, sister-in-law, you are here, please come in and sit down."

Chen Meihua nudged Xu Zhaodi, and the two of them secretly exchanged glances with each other.

Their memories of Lin Lu still remain at the time when she refused to get married and always had a stern face when she met people.

It seems that a lot has changed now.

Several people said they were here to eat, but they couldn't come empty-handed, so one family brought an old hen and a basket of eggs.

Song Chen went upstairs to clean the bathroom and came down when he heard the noise.

He took the things in their hands and turned to Song Nan, "Xiao Nan, pour water for everyone."

Then he walked to the door of Lin Jingbei's room and knocked: "Lin Jingbei, your brothers and sisters are here, come out and talk to them."

Yes, although they are both in the first grade of junior high school, Song Nan is one year older than Lin Jingbei.

"I understand." A lazy voice came from the room.

Chen Meihua praised: "Jingbei is a well-behaved child. He does his homework as soon as he gets home."

Xu Zhaodi agreed: "That's right."

Song Xixi, who had just finished a biology class, said, "The textbook says that intelligence is determined by genes. My fourth uncle and aunt are smart, so they gave birth to a smart child like Jingbei. You and my dad are like this, and you still want us to mutate our genes and become smart children."

Song Jiajia: "Exactly. Have you ever heard the saying, 'Like father, like son, like daughter,' ... and 'like son, like daughter, like daughter,' but a mouse's son will dig holes."

The two sisters sang in unison, making everyone laugh.

Chen Meihua raised her hand, pretending to deal with the two unlucky kids.

"Uncle Si, Aunt Si, help! My mother is going to beat someone to death." Song Xixi shouted and ran around the yard.

Xu Zhaodi laughed: "You two are not the kind of people who are so naughty, why are these two sisters so naughty?"

Song Xixi put her hands on her hips and said, "Our teacher said that I have the character to accomplish great things. I will definitely be like my fourth uncle in the future."

Second Brother Song also admired his daughter's character, but he had to say it in advance, "Can you endure hardship? Do you want to be like Fourth Uncle?"

Song Xixi: "Why can't I endure hardship? I always pick the most and the best fruits."

It's summer vacation, and several children have returned to the orchard to work. They pick a basket full of apples, and Song Chen pays them two cents. Song Xixi can earn more than ten yuan a day.

Song Chen praised: "That's true, Xixi is the one who can endure hardships the most."

Chen Meihua looked at her and said, "Why, do you want to suffer all your life? Or do you want to be like your fourth aunt, get into a good university, make a living by writing, and then sit in an office with a fan on your back."

Song Xixi said: "I am not smart, my sister is smart. In the future, she will open a factory and I will count the money for her."

"Hahaha."

"Sister Xixi, you are truly a genius." Song Nan laughed so hard that he couldn't straighten his back.

"Okay, stop laughing. It's time to eat. Nannan goes to help Jingbei." Third Brother Song said.

Usually, the Lin family’s dining table was small, so the two brothers followed Song Chen’s instructions and went to the utility room to move out a larger one.

Song Xixi and her sister fetched water and wiped the table, and the children had a clear division of labor.

After the dishes were laid out, Lin Changchun came back and greeted everyone with a smile.

Because we had to keep watch at night, everyone just ate and didn't drink.

As they chatted, the topic turned to Lin Lu again.

I'm curious when she'll be okay.

I'm also curious about what she plans to do in the future.

All sorts of problems.

Lin Lu was not very comfortable with dinner parties with so many people, but she answered everyone's questions one by one.

Song Xixi looked at the elegant and beautiful Fourth Aunt, her eyes lit up: "Fourth Aunt, can I come over and play with you tomorrow?"

Lin Lu nodded: "You are welcome to come anytime."

Who wouldn’t like such an interesting little girl? Anyway, she is much more interesting than the barbecued pork in her family.

Song Jiajia raised her hand: "I want one too. I have a lot of study questions that I want to ask Fourth Aunt."

"good."

Lin Lu's gentle smile towards her two sisters was glaring to Lin Jingbei.
