A momentter, Zhao Huixian and Li Jinshan got up, as they had to rise early to prepare breakfast for the family.
Preparing meals for a patient was quite a challenge,
it had to be nutritious enough yet neither too greasy nor salty, and even the idea of making extra soup was explicitly discouraged by Song Xuyan, who informed them that soup actually contained purines, which, in excess, could adversely affect the patient’s recovery.
However, upon leaving Rakshasa City, Song Xuyan provided them with a nutrition list and expressed that he would continue to adjust the diet ording to the patient’s recovery situation after a follow-up consultation.
The whole family hadn’t expected Song Xuyan’s such professionalism.
Of course, what they didn’t know was that Song Xuyan wasn’t so much professional as he was fearful!
Just as Li Jinshan was about to enter the kitchen, he saw Lin Changshui standing at the doorway and puzzledly asked, “Inw, what are you doing standing here so early in the morning?”
Startled by the voice, Lin Changshui turned around to look at Li Jinshan and awkwardly replied, “Eh… I’m just up for some fresh air, couldn’t sleep, it’s nothing… I wasn’t looking at Mo’s new Land Rover.”
The two exchanged nces and couldn’t help but burst intoughter.n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om
People in the vige rose early,
and before long, everyone had gotten up, with more and more eldersing out for a stroll.<div>
They were divided into three factions,
the Mahjong Faction, the Square Dance Faction, the Intelligence Faction…
The Mahjong Faction headed to the vige’s senior citizens activity center, while the Square Dance Faction gathered at the basketball court, and the Intelligence Faction sat along the vige’s main thoroughfare.
The elders chose their activities for the day based on their mood.
Not to mention the big news in the vige, even if a manure truck passed by, the Intelligence group had to taste and appraise it.
But today, as they walked past Lin Changshui’s house, they were instantly mesmerized by the Land Rover parked at the door, which led to them whispering and pointing as they assessed it.
“Yo, whose car is this? It’s quite big.”
“This car must have cost over a hundred thousand yuan, right?”
“I think it’s more than that, at least two to three hundred thousand. Who’se back?”
“How does itpare to Old Dog’s Haval?”
“Should be about the same! At least in size, they look pretty simr, right?” “Granny, do you know whose car this is?”
“How would I know? I’m not one to gossip. However, I think I heard something at Changshui’s doorst night. I guess Mo hase back?”
“That boy Mo, I’ve always seen him as promising since he was little.”
The vigers’ life was indeed quite monotonous, and any news was a wee distraction. It didn’t take long for the crowd to swell, and gradually, the news of Lin Changshui purchasing a new car spread like wildfire.
When they learned that the car was actually worth more than two million yuan, the speed at which the news traveled shot up tenfold.
They must have struck it rich!
They really should cultivate a good rtionship.
Not to mention other aspects, at least now there’s a head car for future weddings!<div>
A two million yuan plus Land Rover as a head car, definitely enough face!
And what is Mo up to these days?
Can he take our boys under his wing?
Early in the morning, quite a few vigers stopped by Lin Changshui’s house under the guise of visiting.<div>
Officially, they were there to see how the family was doing because everyone knew that Lin Changshui’s family had been in a car ident, but the conversation invariably circled back to the imposing Land Rover outside, and to Lin Mo.
“Changshui, what exactly is Lin doing now? I heard he’s bossing at a construction site?”
“Third Aunt, howe I heard that Lin is now subcontracting work, and specifically the most profitablendscaping projects?”
“Sister Xu, you really raised a good son!”
“Changshui, my nephew is getting married next month, can 1 borrow your car? I’ll give you a big red envelope!”
“Is Mo at home? Haven’t seen him in years, call him out so I can see the child.”
Different tactics to curry favor and engage in small talk.
Let’s put it this way,
aside from the days Lin Changshui married Xu Qin and Lin Mo married Li J inwen, this yard had never seen so many visitors.
And the rumors continued to grow wilder,
resembling the way a person could work as a line chief in Guangzhou, while vigers would say he was the county chief of Guangzhou.
“Auntie Two, Sister Three, Cousin Mother…”
Lin Changshui was so happy he was almost grinning crookedly; even happier than when he returned home, he called out to several people and said, “Don’t listen to their nonsense, Mo just made a bit of money; it’s not that exaggerated, really not that exaggerated.”<div>
“Second Brother, you’re here, but why bring anything?”
“Hahaha, any praise for good parenting is all due to Mo’s own abilities.”
“Oh dear, I can’t smoke now.”
“Third Uncle, you’ve started smoking Zhonghua now?”
“Alright alright, everyone misses Mo, I’ll go upstairs and call him. The kid came backte yesterday; I was nning to have him drive around to see you all today anyway.”
Just as Lin Changshui was about to call for Lin Mo, Li Jinwen, who had heard the noise downstairs, came down from upstairs and told Lin Changshui that Lin Mo had already taken an early train to Rakshasa City while it was still dark. “Eh? He left already? Ah, that child, left without saying a word!”
“Busy, being busy is good.”
Lin Changshui nodded and turned to say, “Well, I’m really sorry, my son is just too busy. You wait for the New Year; I’ll take Mo around to visit everyone for the holidays!”
“Anyway, we’re moving back here soon, so there will be plenty of opportunities!”
Everyone in the yard nodded in agreement, andughter and jovial conversation about other topics resumed.
Li Jinwen stood at the door, watching the courtyard filled with self-invited ‘rtives,’ and couldn’t help but feel pride swelling in her heart because she knew these people hade for her husband, and amidst the pride, she also couldn’t help but reflect: in just a few short months, their family went from being ignored migrant workers to prizedmodities among the vigers.. It truly exemplified the saying, poor and in a bustling ce, no one cares; wealthy and in remote mountains, distant rtives appear!
