Ling Hancheng wiped the sweat from his head casually:
"Uncle, I'm fine."
Old Man Jin frowned and said, "It's time to go back and eat, no matter what. These tasks can't be finished in a short time."
Ling Hancheng is a cultured person. Although he does some farm work, to put it bluntly, he is not the kind of person who can do hard work. It is awkward to see him moving bricks with his hands holding a book.
What's more, in Old Man Jin's opinion, Ling Hanmin is not worth Ling Hancheng's efforts at all. He is an ungrateful person.
Zhou Meixiang was very good at reading people's expressions. Seeing that Old Man Jin was looking at them with a somewhat unfriendly expression, she quickly said, "Second brother, it's getting late. You should go home and eat first. Uncle Jin is right. This job won't be done overnight."
Yao Yongbo also patted Ling Hancheng on the shoulder. He also felt that Ling Hancheng could do this much and there was no need for him to help their family day and night.
They all saw how strained the relationship between the two families was before.
The Zhou family deserves sympathy for having their house collapsed, but that doesn’t mean that what they did in the past can be written off.
Anyway, no matter whether it was Yao Yongbo or Old Man Jin, they just felt displeased with Ling Hanmin no matter how they looked at him.
It was only after Zhou Meixiang finished speaking that Ling Hanmin seemed to realize that his second brother had worked hard with them for the entire morning. He then said, "Then, second brother, go back and eat first. Come back after dinner."
What this means is almost like saying, go eat quickly, and then come back to work quickly after eating.
Ling Hancheng remained indifferent. Although his expression was a little cold, he still nodded: "Can you eat by yourselves?"
If the house collapse wasn't such a serious matter, Ling Hancheng probably wouldn't have taken the initiative to interfere in his brother's family affairs.
It’s just this time, so I’ll just endure it no matter what.
Zhou Meixiang opened her mouth to speak, but Ling Hanmin spoke first, "Don't worry about us, brother. It's already troublesome enough for Danfei and Anyuan to have dinner at your place. How can we two adults go there? Just have a casual meal."
They definitely didn't need to go to the Ling family for dinner. Although the house collapsed, the kitchen stove under the eaves of their main hall was still in good condition, so they could make something delicious for themselves at noon.
Actually, Ling Hanmin was mainly afraid of Old Lady Ling...
Hearing this, Ling Hancheng nodded and said nothing more.
As soon as he heard it, he knew that Ling Hanmin's words were not just a compliment. Since the other party had his own way, Ling Hancheng was relieved.
After talking to Yao Yongbo for a few words, Ling Hanchengcai and Old Man Jin returned to the Ling family together.
On the way, Ling Hancheng also listened to Old Man Jin's complaints about Ling Hanmin.
Ling Hancheng could tell from the heartache behind these words that he felt for him, and he smiled and said, "He's my brother after all, and we didn't fight to the death. I can't just ignore such a big thing."
Old Man Jin glanced at him and said, "You and your mother are still soft-hearted. You are not as decisive as your eldest brother."
Ling Hanwen, the eldest son of the Ling family, was a man with a decisive and murderous aura. When he had just adopted little Linglong and held a banquet for her, Ling Hanwen came back and gave Ling Hanmin a lot of lectures.
Although no one knew what was said, Ling Hanmin was even more afraid to visit the Ling family after that. He probably asked Zhou Danfei to deliver some things.
Old Man Jin felt that Ling Hanwen's approach was the best, and that he must not be soft when dealing with Ling Hanmin.
