Chapter 315 Back there - The sickly young lady's daily life of eating melons in the courtyard

Mr. and Mrs. Lin were really lucky today, or maybe it was because they used the right method, they had a great harvest today and caught a large basket of fish.

Father and Mother Lin looked at the basket of fish with fiery eyes.

“We have gained so much today!”

"Hmm, I really don't dare to think about it."

Considering their dismal performance last week, it’s really hard to imagine.

"But what are we going to do with so many fish?" Mother Lin frowned again.

Father Lin felt the same way. Yes, what should we do with this fish?

If they didn't get any harvest, they wouldn't be in a good mood. Now that they have harvested, they are also worried!

If I take it back directly, wouldn't that just be giving others a target?

But I can’t not take it back.

"Oh, it would be nice if we could live in our own house." Mother Lin sighed.

"What are you thinking? How is it possible?" There are not many people living in independent houses in their city now.

"Then what should we do with the fish?" Mother Lin was worried!

"How about taking the fish back to our place?" Father Lin thought for a moment and suggested.

"Bring it back to our place?" Mother Lin didn't quite understand for a moment.

"Don't we have a balcony over there? When we bring the fish back, we can dry them on the balcony. After they are dried, they won't spoil easily."

The more Lin's mother listened, the brighter her eyes became. "Ah! My dear, you are really smart."

"When the neighbors ask us about it, we will tell them that we are drying salted fish. It doesn't matter if we are drying one or many fish. We are not lying!"

"Besides, we don't live there now, so it's impossible for others to keep catching us and asking questions."

"Uh-huh."

The old couple made up their mind immediately, and after thinking it over, they prepared to go back. On the way back, they picked a few handfuls of mugwort and spread it in the basket to cover up the fishy smell as much as possible.

After returning to the city, Lin's father and mother did not go home immediately, but went straight to the textile factory's subsidiary courtyard.

"Hey! Sister Linlin, why are you back?" As soon as he came back, he attracted the attention of the old women who were chatting under the tree.

"Oh, let's come back to get something."

"So, what are you carrying in the basket?" Everyone stared at the backpack.

"Nothing much, just picked some wild vegetables and mugwort along the way."

"Wild vegetables? Mugwort? Don't you think it's good to live in your son-in-law's house? Why are you eating wild vegetables? Don't you have money to buy vegetables?" There were also sarcastic people who mocked.

"You are the one who is wrong! We just happened to come across these wild vegetables when we were out playing. We picked them if we wanted to. What does it have to do with you?"

"Tsk~ I saw it! You must be unwelcome in your son-in-law's house. I was wondering which son-in-law would be willing to live with his parents-in-law? Wouldn't that be bribery?"

"What the hell are you talking about! Who's unwilling? My son-in-law is very willing!" Lin's mother immediately retorted angrily.

"I'm willing, I don't want to, or else you will come back in disgrace today?"

"Are you deaf? Didn't you tell me that we were coming back to get something? We'll be back soon. Besides, we're going back to our own home, so why should we be so ashamed?"

"You... humph!" The sarcastic mother always believed that what she said was right.

Lin's mother must have been angry and humiliated because she was not welcomed in her son-in-law's family.

Mother Lin didn't want to talk to this unreasonable person anymore. "My dear, let's go. There's nothing to talk to this kind of person. Let's go back!"

Because of the quarrel between the two, everyone forgot to investigate the things in his back basket.

This couldn't be better for Mr. and Mrs. Lin.

The old couple were just worrying about how to get through that hurdle.

I didn’t expect that God really helped them!

The old couple returned to the Lin family. "Huh~ I was almost scared to death just now. If you two hadn't suddenly started quarreling and attracted other people's attention, I would have seen someone trying to lift our bag."

"Hehe! Thank you so much to Liu Zhaodi just now."

"Let's hurry up and clean up the fish and put them directly on the balcony to dry."

"good!"

The old couple was full of energy. They first took out the oilcloth that they had treasured for a long time, cleaned the balcony, and then spread it flat on the balcony.

They were well prepared, having hollowed out the fish's stomach before returning, so all they had to do was coat it with salt.

The two of them worked together and soon filled up half of the oilcloth.

"Huh, it's finally okay!" Mother Lin stood up and stretched her waist to relieve the pain from squatting for so long.

Mother Lin looked at the large piece of salted fish, her heart was burning with excitement. "Now that the fish is exposed to the sun, do we have to come back and turn it over from time to time?"

"Well, I come back every afternoon after get off work and turn over these salted fish."

"Okay! That's the best. You can come over to turn the salted fish after get off work every day, and then go back. This way I don't have to come back so often and attract other people's attention."

"Uh-huh."

"Let's spread some mugwort next to it later!" At least it can cover up some of the smell.

"good!"

After finishing their work, the old couple hurried back home.

We met some neighbors on the way.

"Are they back? Didn't they say they don't want to be seen by daughters-in-law and sons-in-law?"

"Bullshit, listen to their nonsense. If they didn't like the daughter-in-law and son-in-law, they wouldn't have accepted them in the first place, okay? What's more, I heard that the daughter-in-law gives them pension money every month!"

"If I had a daughter like this, I would have thrown away my barbecued son long ago."

Speaking of this, Mr. and Mrs. Lin are really enviable, and therefore they are envied by others.

Otherwise, these rumors would not have spread. It is because some people do not want to see them do well and wish they would be driven out by their daughters-in-law and sons-in-law.

"Really? Giving birth to so many sons is not as good as having a daughter! Oh, I really regret it. If I had known earlier, I would have treated my daughter better!"

"Tsk~ So what if you regret it now? You definitely wouldn't have thought this way back then."

These words left the others speechless.

But if they go back to the past, they would not think so. If they really didn't have a son, wouldn't they be waiting to be scolded and exterminated by others?

They don't want to be pointed at every day.

Some people also comforted themselves, "We don't have a daughter like his, but at least our own son is much better than the son of the Lin family."

That makes so much sense!

It was so magical that they were comforted. Yes! They didn't have such a filial daughter. But at least their son was not as bad as the Lin family!

Also famous along with Lin Qingxiaoshun is his bastard son Lin Feng and vicious daughter-in-law Zhang Mei, who are also often criticized by others.
