Ever since Lin Cheng was choked by Lin Mo in the hospital last time, he felt a lump in his heart. Originally, he had the mentality of watching a movie to watch him torment, but he didn't expect that the youngest's family would be better and better by him.
How can he sit still? In his heart, his son Lin Dong is no worse than Lin Mo in all aspects, but his cleverness is not used on the right path. He thought about getting his son to "reform evil and return to righteousness", so he entrusted a cousin of Xu Hong's family to send Lin Dong to a well-known furniture factory in the county as an apprentice. Unexpectedly, Lin Dong went to study for four months, and the furniture factory drove him back. He asked the cousin who had turned several corners before he found out that Lin Dong couldn't change his bad habits. He went to the furniture factory, and was caught by the factory manager. If he hadn't interceded, he would have been sent to the police station.
The so-called cousin is the brother-in-law of the director of the furniture factory, and he can barely be regarded as the third in command in the factory. He charged Lin Cheng a full two thousand yuan before he stuffed Lin Dong into the factory and found the best master. Learning crafts, his face will be dull when this kind of thing happens. Not only did he not return a penny to Lin Cheng's family, he also withheld Lin Dong's apprenticeship wages for the past few months. For this matter, Lin Dong even went to his house to trouble him, but in the end he didn't get the money. After the news spread, no one dared to ask him to work, and no one dared to introduce him to places to learn crafts.
Lin Cheng was so worried that his hair almost fell out. When he was outside yesterday, he suddenly heard that Aunt Li, who helped Lin Mo make steamed buns, resigned. Dong went to Lin Mo's small shop to help and learn some crafts. Unexpectedly, when I told Lin Dong this morning, he refused to go no matter what he said, Lin Cheng got angry and beat him up, but Lin Dong was as if he had become determined after eating a weight. He refused to let go after being beaten to death, and in the end Xu Hong, who doted on his son, couldn't stand it any longer, and cried and made noises, forcing Lin Cheng to compromise.
When the anger calmed down a bit, Lin Cheng felt that even if his son couldn't help, his wife could do it anyway. People in the village were rumoring that Lin Mo would pay them hundreds of dollars a month. It doesn't matter if it's true or not. It's better to be idle at home, isn't it? Lin Cheng didn't know that Lin Mo paid the store's employees seven hundred yuan a month, plus bonuses, and sometimes eight or nine hundred a month, because the salary was really high. Aunt Li, Aunt Wang, Aunt Gu and the others heard Lin Mo say After keeping the secrets, everyone's mouths were shut tighter than clamshells. Fortunately, otherwise, Lin Cheng would not have waited until now to come to the door.
Lin Mo really didn't like Lin Cheng very much. In his previous life, when he was so poor that he couldn't get rid of it, he and Xu Hong would talk about it for a long time, not to mention asking them to borrow money, even if they borrowed a hundred catties of rice, as if they were afraid that they would not be able to pay it back. At that time, he couldn't grow the family's field alone. Many people in the village would help him voluntarily after finishing their work in the field, cutting rice, picking things, and drying grass... The Lin Cheng family just watched him being killed. It was so heavy that it barely crawled on the ground, and couldn't move a finger to help. Later, when Lin Shu had an accident, their family hid far away, wanting to sever ties with them directly.
This is why later, why Lin Dong had accidents one after another, even if he heard that he was capable of helping, he finally chose to stand by and watch.
He didn't hate Lin Cheng's family, but felt cold.
It's just that he can treat Lin Cheng's family as strangers with blood relationship, but the old lady and Lin Jian can't. To them, Lin Cheng is his own son, the eldest brother of the same mother. They haven't experienced so many chilling or even disgusting things, and they can't be as heartless as him.
Lin Mo suppressed the emotion in his eyes, called Lin Cheng lukewarmly, and welcomed him into the house.
"Brother," Lin Jian called him, then turned to Lin Mo and said, "Mo Mo, go get your uncle a pair of bowls and chopsticks."
Although Lin Cheng does not have a regular job to make money like Lin Jian, but Lin Dong is the only son in his family, who dropped out of school early and has a light burden at home. Xu Hong is more budget-conscious than Grandet. cards, but their family's wealth is actually stronger than that of Lin Jian's family. Of course, this was the case half a year ago.
Now, when he saw the 'full table' of meat and vegetables, and sniffed the delicious smell, he suddenly felt concerned.
Hey, Lin Mo really doesn't know how to get rich, right
The square wooden dining table was a bit small, so everyone moved their seats, and Lin Cheng sat next to Lin Jian on the chair that Lin Shu moved for him. He rolled his eyes and fell on Han Xun who was facing him: "Whose young man is this?" ? She looks really energetic."
Lin Mo came in with the bowls and chopsticks, just when he heard it, he replied, "Something happened to Aunt Li's house, so I can no longer help in the store. Brother Han is the pastry chef I just hired." Probably because I was in the capital After living for more than ten years, Lin Mo's local accent is not so strong when he speaks his hometown dialect. Han Xun has lived with the Han family for several days, and he can understand 50 to 60% of Lin Mo's dialect.
Seeing Lin Mo's faint disgust towards Lin Cheng's lukewarmness, Han Xun also felt a little bit more displeased with Lin Cheng's calculating and shrewd expression, so he nodded cooperatively.
Lin Cheng's complexion immediately turned dark, Lin Mo said so, how could the old lady not understand what he meant? In her heart, she also hopes that her eldest son's family can live a good life, but isn't there an old saying that one who sells lime can't see one who sells flour. It is not easy for Lin Mo to support a family at a young age. Then let the eldest son's family mix in blindly.
"Oh, is that so?" Lin Cheng took the rice served by Lin Mo, unceremoniously picked up a large chopsticks and roasted the meat, and said while eating: "The young man looks at the tender meat, it doesn't seem like he can dry it. The way you live. The youngest, Lin Mo is young, you have to help him to check when he is looking for someone to work, don't be fooled and don't even know."
The old lady said with a stern face: "Boss, what are you talking about? I found A Xun for Momo. You mean I will find a liar to lie to my grandson, right?"
Lin Cheng was suddenly choked by the old lady, and the fat meat he was swallowing ran away, and he managed to avoid choking him to death. It took him a long time to recover and said: "Mom, I didn't mean that, How do I know that you invited him?" Lin Cheng said this, but he didn't quite believe it in his heart, no matter how he looked at Han Xun, he didn't look like a person who could work. Could it be that Lin Mo knew his reason for coming and purposely said it to block him
"Then what do you mean?"
Lin Cheng said with a cheeky smile: "I don't mean anything else. Youngest, you see the old saying that fat and water don't flow into outsiders' fields. You need help in the store now, so why go outside to look for it. Your sister-in-law is idle at home every day. She is almost growing hair, so let her go to the store to help you look after her, salary, etc., you can give her as much as you open for others, and you don’t need to take care of her. We are brothers, and that is your sister-in-law. Can you be more friendly to you than outsiders? Now that you are rich, and Momo is so promising, one of them is worth ten of my bastards, do you think you should help elder brother?"
Lin Jian has never been very good at rejecting people. Lin Cheng said aggressively. If it was the past, he would definitely nod and agree. Although the small restaurant is listed in his name from the storefront to the business license, the actual operation is Lin Mo. Although Lin Mo does earn a lot of money every day, he goes out at five or six o'clock every morning and doesn't come home until after ten o'clock in the evening, rain or shine. Every time he sees his son's tired look, he feels guilty and restless. Although he can't help his son, at least he can't cause trouble for his son because of his soft heart, right? Who is the eldest brother and sister-in-law? He lived together for so long when they were not separated. Could he not be clear? Once they participate in their own small shop, sooner or later they will get a moth.
"Brother, what are you kidding, what kind of money can I make by being a waste person now? The small shop in Mo Mo Nong seems to be doing well, but the rent, salary, and other miscellaneous expenses are only enough for our daily expenses. I don’t know where to pay off the debts I owe.”
Lin Cheng didn't expect that Lin Jian would turn a corner and refuse him. He put down the bowl and chopsticks with a change of expression, "Youngest, don't sell yourself poor. The business in your store is so hot, do you think I don't know? I heard Who said that those people on the street have to wait in line for your steamed stuffed buns and can’t make money? Who would believe it. Don’t forget who earned the money for your education. Don’t think that your brother and I are uneducated, so I can play you like a fool! Now give me an accurate answer, do you want your sister-in-law to work?"
Lin Jian was silent for a moment, then said resolutely, "I'm sorry, brother, I really can't help you."
"Okay, you are ruthless, if you don't treat me as a big brother, I will not have you as a younger brother from now on."
The old lady's face was as dark as the bottom of a pot. She put down her rice bowl and chopsticks with a bang, "You don't recognize the youngest as your younger brother, and you don't recognize me as your mother either!"
Lin Cheng stood up angrily, smashed the bowl to the ground, and said with a red face, "If you really think of me as your son, you shouldn't be so partial." After finishing speaking, he kicked over the chair and walked out angrily. The courtyard door was slammed loudly.
This was the first time that Lin Jian and his elder brother had their faces broken. As soon as Lin Cheng left, Lin Jian and the old lady were not enjoying their meals. They frowned tightly and put down the bowls and chopsticks after a few mouthfuls of food.
After the meal, Lin Jian took the contract and copied a few copies by hand. The old lady went to an acquaintance’s house to buy local eggs, and informed Aunt Wang and Aunt Gu that work would start tomorrow. Lin Shu washed the dishes and did some summer homework. Went to take a nap.
Lin Mo continued to study his physics book. Han Xun sat on the edge of the bed for a while, feeling bored, and asked, "What happened to that man just now?"
Lin Mo put down his textbooks recklessly, turned to look at him and said, "That's my uncle. He wanted my uncle to work in my shop. Dad refused him. He lost his temper in anger."
Han Xun said bluntly: "He doesn't look like a good person. It's best to stay as far away from this kind of person as possible. However, I think he doesn't seem to give up at all. What are you going to do?"
Although Lin Cheng spoke harshly, anyone with a discerning eye could see that there was an element of "doing" in this kind of "ruthlessness". In the final analysis, it was nothing more than a disguised threat.
"If you want flies to stop staring at you, the best way is to let it have other stinky meat to stare at." Although Lin Cheng seems to be very tight now, based on Lin Mo's understanding of him, once he is rich and rich Yes, it is definitely turning your face and denying people, for fear that others will come along.
Han Xun sneered: "If you want me to say, it's best to shoot it to death directly, so as not to fly around and annoy people to death."
Lin Mo sighed: "Do you think I don't want to? I just don't want to embarrass my father and grandma."
Han Xiaoren expressed his feelings: "Our Mo Mo is really kind."
"... Get lost." Who belongs to your family
Han Xun whispered: "Sooner or later."
Lin Jian copied more than 20 contracts in the afternoon before finishing them. When the ink was dry, he handed the contract to Lin Mo and said, "You can take a look at each copy in a while. We must not be sloppy in assuming legal responsibility."
"Well, I know." Lin Mo took the contract, saw the strong pen writing on it, and said with a smile, "Father's handwriting is really good."
Lin Jian smiled slightly, and said in a nostalgic tone: "Compared with your mother, you are far behind. You should practice your handwriting more when you are free. How is your textbook? You can ask me if you don't understand, but don't come back next year. The school can't keep up with the progress. You can take your time to make money, and you can't leave behind in your studies."
Hearing these words, Lin Mo's ears were almost callused, he nodded repeatedly, and then changed the subject: "Dad, I think uncle is definitely not giving up on what happened today. I think I suggest they introduce Brother Dong to learn some cooking skills In the future, if you open a fish farm by yourself, as long as you manage it well, the business will be no worse than that of our small restaurant."
There is a relative in Xu Hong's natal family who is a chef, and his cooking is no worse than that of Master Li who taught him, especially good at cooking fish. In the previous life, the old lady originally wanted Lin Mo to learn from that person, but Xu Hong refused to help. In the end, the leader of Lin Jian School helped, and the old lady tried every means to find relatives, which made Lin Mo become Master Li's apprentice.
"Yuzhuang?" The old lady happened to pass by the window and heard the father and son talking, and asked curiously.
