When Lin Li opened her eyes, the sun was already high in the sky outside the window. She glanced at the alarm clock on the bed and realized it was time to reap the rewards.
Back in the space, after harvesting the loot, I saw the upgrade button lit up and pressed it without thinking. A burst of colorful light flashed, and the space was upgraded to level 2.
The farm is now open!
Opening the farm, you can buy a cow for 20 gold coins. When Lin Lixin watched the gold coins in the farm upgrade directly from 1,000 to 500, her heart was bleeding.
The money I earned in one night...
However, looking at the newly opened farm and the new plant varieties, it's a good thing! At least we can harvest milk and grow ginseng now.
After buying five dairy cows and using the remaining money to buy two ginseng seeds, they diligently planted fast-growing varieties on other land.
Seeing that the ginseng would take 10 days to mature, Lin Li swallowed hard. Alright! Haste makes waste! Take it slow!
After leaving the space, I checked the alarm clock and it was almost noon.
Lin Li opened the door and saw her four sons, two daughters-in-law, and daughter surrounding her.
"Mom, are you feeling better?"
"You scared us to death yesterday."
"Mom, who are you planning to give that job opportunity to?"
"Yes, Mom, we're short of money to pay for your precious grandson's tuition! Haven't you always said that a child's education is the most important thing?"
"Mom, I need to pay my tuition too." The younger sister pushed past her second daughter-in-law and brought her face close to Lin Li's, a hint of smugness in her eyes. Mom loved her the most and would definitely give her the money.
Then she'll buy the most fashionable clothes and make everyone at school envious.
"Mom, I'm your favorite youngest son, and I need to pay for my tutoring too."
Seeing his younger sister approach, the boy quickly grabbed Lin Li's arm and wouldn't let go, looking at her defiantly.
Lin Li glanced at the third brother, who was furthest away from her, and saw the real heartache in his eyes.
"Stop making noise, it's giving me a headache."
Lin Li roared, and the room immediately fell silent.
Looking coldly at the fourth brother who was still holding her hand, and seeing Lin Li's icy gaze, he slowly let go of her hand.
"Wait for me to eat first. After I finish eating, we can talk about dividing the family property."
After saying that, he ignored everyone's thoughts and went to the kitchen on his own.
As soon as Lin Li entered the kitchen, she laughed in anger. Look at them, these are the bloodsucking sons who treat their old mother like a servant.
The pot and stove were cold, the rice bin was empty, and all the firewood, rice, oil, salt, soy sauce, vinegar, and meat had been taken away.
After finally finding a pair of noodles, Lin Li quickly washed the pot and was about to start a fire when she saw the third brother silently sitting in front of the stove and lighting the fire.
"Have you got a meal yet?"
The third brother silently shook his head.
Lin Li didn't ask him why he hadn't eaten; she simply poured all the noodles into the hot water and stirred them continuously with chopsticks.
"What are your thoughts on the job?"
Lin Li took out a bowl, poured in some clear broth seasoning, added a handful of washed greens, and casually asked the third brother who had been silently starting the fire.
After waiting for a long time without hearing his reply, she stopped what she was doing and stared blankly at him.
"Mom, you can make the decision." The third son felt Lin Li's gaze, his ears turned red, and he felt very happy.
His mother never asked for his opinion; she only listened to his eldest and second eldest brothers.
Grandma Yilin's original words were that the eldest son was the eldest son, and the second son was a college student and had knowledge.
His younger brother and sister were better at charming him and talking to him than he was, so he was practically invisible in the family.
Today, his mother actually asked for his opinion, which warmed his heart. It turned out that his mother still cared about him.
Lin Li looked at his reddened eyes and sighed. This child, who lacked love, gets so excited over the slightest bit of affirmation.
"Third son, I've thought about this seriously. When we split up the family property later, I'll live with you. Will you look down on your mother?"
"Mom, I won't. I will definitely take good care of you."
Upon hearing Lin Li's words, tears immediately streamed down Lin Laosan's face. He hurriedly wiped his face with his sleeve and grinned at Lin Li.
"Okay, let's eat noodles. We still have a lot of things to do after we eat."
"Um"
Lin Li and Lin Laosan quickly ate their clear soup noodles. Although the taste was bland, they both felt warm inside.
After finishing her meal, Lin Li washed the pots, pans, and chopsticks, then went to the main room.
Seeing the rest of the Lin family sitting in the main room, eating melon seeds and chatting happily, Lin Li was furious.
She sat down on a chair in the main room, looked at her children below, and gave a cold laugh.
“From today onwards, we will separate our family and each go our own way. I don’t want any filial piety from you, and you shouldn’t expect to get any money from me. Your father and I have already fulfilled our duties as parents by raising you.”
"Mom, what are you saying?"
Upon hearing this, Lin Dalang immediately started making a scene, saying, "What do you mean by not sharing our money? Dad's money should be ours."
"Yes! Mom, do you still want us to take care of you in your old age? If you keep acting like this, we won't take care of you anymore."
The eldest daughter-in-law crossed her legs, spat a sunflower seed shell on the ground, and said with a disdainful look.
"You want to support me in my old age?" Lin Li felt like hitting someone whenever she thought about the seven days that Old Lady Lin starved to death.
"Mom, let me tell you, after my father died, all his things belong to us sons. Women can't run a household."
Lin Erlang also gave Lin Li a disdainful look.
Hahaha! This is taking advantage of the old lady's lack of education! She just spouts nonsense, and she's supposed to be a college student? All that education has gone to waste.
"Really? Then I'll have to go to your workplace and ask your boss. Everyone says women hold up half the sky, so how come in your mouth women can't be in charge?"
"Mom, don't talk nonsense..."
Lin Erlang turned pale with fright when he heard that Lin Li was going to see their leader. This was a crucial period for his promotion, and he couldn't afford any accidents.
Lin Li rolled her eyes at Lin Erlang's pale face. In her past life, he was the one who swindled the most money from Old Lady Lin, saying that if he got promoted this time, his salary would be higher, and he could give her more money to support her when she got old.
And what happened? Old Mrs. Lin starved to death without receiving a single penny from him.
What an ingrate!
The second daughter-in-law also secretly nudged Lin Erlang, raised her face slightly, and told him to wait for Lin Dalang to make a scene, and that they should stay out of it.
"Mom, stop talking nonsense. Take the job you got and exchange it for money first, then quickly take out the bonus and distribute it."
Lin Dalang roared at Lin Li without any politeness, acting as if he were the boss.
"Oh, what are you saying? It's like I'm the son and you're the mother. How can you talk to your mother like that?"
