chapter-446
Third Sister-in-law Lin amusedly rolled her eyes at him.
She was satisfied. There were no complaints about their family's life. It will only get better in the future.
Although there was still a lot of noise on her in-law's side, they won't move to the city anyway.
Of course, it wasn't that they didn't want to move. After knowing that his family had bought a new yard, her two incessant parents-in-law wanted to live there.
But she was the first one to disagree.If they were good and kind elders, then she will pick them up herself. But what kind of character were those two?
In the past, when she gave birth to her eldest daughter and second daughter, she didn’t even have to eat a full bite. It was thanks to the meat and eggs sent by her third sister that she could have decent post-natal confinement and not leave the body with sickness during confinement.
Now that the days were better, it didn't mean that she can forget everything before.
Now that they can provide ten yuan as living expenses for the two elders every month, Third Sister-in-law Lin felt that was benevolence and righteousness enough. Want to come to live with her in the city?
Don't even think about it.
When they went back last year during the New Year, the two elders mentioned it. Probably intended to test the water.
The two sisters-in-law also brought it up later. She harshly stated her stance.If anyone dares to send the second elders over, then she can send the second elders back to the village on the same day. No matter how late or busy it is!
On this point, Third Sister-in-law Lin's attitude was very firm. There was no room for discussion!
Moreover, she wasn't an energy-saving lamp. When they went back last year during the New Year, she often mentioned to the villagers in the countryside that they find ten yuan a month too little and that she couldn't drink a mouthful of thick porridge during post-natal confinement.
Had it not been for her third sister who brought some supplies, who knows if she can survive!
But what she said was all true. After all, when they moved out that year, they were really forced by Lin family to move out.
It was thanks to Lin Qing He and Zhou Qing Bai's help that their life can improve step by step.
The villagers weren't fools. How can they not notice?
In addition, those few from old Lin family were bad at interacting. They often saw them make a fool of themselves.
How did they make a fool of themselves?
Naturally, their daughter who was forced to sever the relationship with her maternal family became successful and her family moved to the capital.
Their youngest son who was forced to separate became successful and his family moved to the county city.
It can be seen that this old Lin family wasn't fortunate. They forced good away and keep the cowardly behind.
Still, he was their son. So Third Brother Lin gave ten yuan a month for living expenses. But they won't stop causing trouble. Did they want to force this youngest son to sever ties with the family?
A lot of people in the village mocked about it.
Probably because of Lin Qing He's decisiveness, Father Lin and Mother Lin hesitated for a while. This daughter truly flipped her face like she said she will. Thinking about how they treated this daughter, Third Sister-in-law Lin in the past, they didn't insist on coming over.
Otherwise, they really had that plan.
After all, how nice it would be to live in the city? How can the countryside compare? But their son and daughter-in-law just disallow them to come. What can they do?
They often went around the village, saying they weren't filial. But no one listened to them.
In rural areas, was the monthly ten yuan given to them little? No one would say it was little. After all, this wasn't their only son. It was the youngest son who gave this money.
There were still two elder ones in front. But these two elder ones weren't very promising.
Especially old Second Lin. Even until now, he was in an unclear relationship with that widow and often got into quarrels with his wife about this matter.
In short, old Lin Family was in a mess. Whoever got involved was unlucky.
Lin Qing He and Zhou Qing Bai had a hearty meal with Third Brother and Third Sister-in-law.
Third Sister-in-law had put her heart into entertaining them. One whole chicken was fried. There were also loofah soup, cucumber soup, scrambled eggs, a fish, and a plate of shrimp.
It was exceptionally rich. After these things were put on the table, Lin Qin He grinned: "I didn't even know that Third Sister-in-law's culinary skill is this good!"
"That's right. There was no room to develop before. Couldn't even bear to use a little lard. Now I don't have to mind so much. You and your brother do your best. I promise there's enough!!" Third Sister swiftly replied.
Naturally, Lin Qing He didn't act reserved with her. Zhou Qing Bai and Third Brother were drinking while eating.
Third Brother had a few cups before he started to recall the past: "Old Fourth, I remember your affection for my brother. It can be said if it weren't for that time when us, brothers went to the river to swim and you said those words and left that money, your third sister-in-law and I couldn’t have the courage to go out and give it a go."
Since childhood, he had been doing farm work. How much determination and courage were needed to take that step? The most important thing was that they need that kind of condition to allow it.
And most of these were given by Lin Qing He and Zhou Qing Bai.
Third Brother knew this in his heart.
"Between brothers, if one does well, he'll hope the rest are well. As long as you guys are willing to work hard, who would be left behind?" Zhou Qing Bai replied.
"I know what kind of person you are, old Fourth. Although you are the youngest among us, we didn't take care of you. Instead, we always get taken care of by you. Also our parents, they are now looked after by you over there." Third Brother said with a smile.
"They're also our parents. It's only right to." Lin Qing He grinned.
"I know my father's temperament. However, Mother. She sometimes a little confused. Fourth Sister-in-law don't mind her. Just leave her be. Among so many grandchildren, she dotes Da Wa the most." Third Brother continued.
"She equally dotes them all." Lin Qing He smiled.
This was undeniable. Toward the four daughters-in-law, it was equal treatment. As for the son and grandson, Mother Zhou favored her family's Qing Bai and her family's eldest.
Can't be helped. The youngest son and eldest grandson belonged to her family.
Because of this, Lin Qing He didn't mind Mother Zhou so much even when they were in the capital and her bad habits occasionally occurred.
Almost perfect was enough. There was no need to forcibly be above the elderly on everything. However, it was necessary to be stronger sometimes.
Because this mother-in-law, Mother Zhou, was a little bit ignorant and won't accept the pro.
"Why talk about that? Drink your thing." Third Sister-in-law spoke.
Whether she partial or not, they still got to eat. Back then, it was that condition. What can she give?
She didn't care about it.
"Is Xiao Mei and Da Lin's business doing well?" Third Brother cared about his sister and brother-in-law.
"It's okay." Zhou Qing Bai nodded.
"I heard that his former factory went bankrupt. Da Lin's uncle and his family are now idle at home." Third Brother mentioned.
"The whole family has no job?" Lin Qing He asked.
"En. It happened this month. Da Lin probably doesn't know about it yet." Third Brother confirmed.
