Su Bing and Su Li were digging into some snacks together when Su Li stopped Gu Zi, dropping his guard from before.
“Stepmom, today I took the fruit preserves to share with my friends, and we had a great time!” He lowered his head after sharing.
Gu Zi walked over and sat down beside him, speaking gently, “That’s great, sharing brings happiness.”
“But, the other classmates also wanted some. So, I… I shared all the fruit preserves. And one of my female classmates really liked the jar, so I gave it to her too,” Su Li sounded a bit remorseful.
He realized those fruit preserves were bought by his stepmom, and giving away the jar without asking seemed improper.
However, by the time he thought about it, the jar was already given away.
Gu Zits lips curled up. “I asked you to bring it to school so that you can share it with your classmates. As for the jar, we have plenty at home, so don’t worry.” Su Li widened his eyes, surprised that stepmom wasn’t upset.
And her tone was so gentle! This stepmom was actually very kind.
Gu Zi continued, “Today, I made twenty cans of fruit preserves at home. You guys can have some, just make sure to keep it clean. If you don’t finish, cover it up and put it in the fridge, okay?”
“Okay!” Su Li nodded eagerly, and even Su Bing nodded along beside him.
Meanwhile, at Little Lin Village, a group had gathered in front of a red brick house at the village entrance. They looked envious.
Li Zhu and the truck driver were carrying a brand-new fridge into the house, taking some time before coming out again. They probably needed time to set it up.
Then they unloaded a hundred pounds of prepared pork from the truck into the Lin family’s house.
The aroma of the cooking meat wafted through the air, making everyone almost drool.
“Hey, Old Lin, things are turning around for you! You’re lucky to have such a good daughter!”
“It’s good to have a daughter and son-in-law. The Lin family is different now. Congratulations!”
“So, when’s your son-in-law throwing a party to celebrate the wedding? Don’t forget to invite us, okay?”
Ever since they found out about the connection between the Lin and Su families, there was no shortage of visitors at the Lin house.
Now, things were different. The Lin family had turned the tide.
First, they moved from a remote mountain spot to the best location at the village entrance, settling into the best red brick house.
Now, their affluent son-in-law was sending in a fridge and a bunch of pork.
Seeing the Lin family, some were envious, some a little jealous. But on the surface, everyone engaged in conversation with them, to avoid any estrangement.
Papa Lin was chatting with the people outside but felt a bit overwhelmed. “Yeah, Su Shen and Xiao Zi are having a celebration next month!”
Mother Lin was also in high spirits. She and her daughter-in-law, Li Hua, chatted with the other ladies.
Lin Cheng was boiling water in the kitchen to make tea. He wanted Li Zhu and the others to have a cup of hot tea to drink before they left.
But he couldn’t do anything alone. Whenever he tried to do something, Lin Hun was right there to help. Wherever he went, Lin Hun followed.
When he wanted to make tea, Lin Hun would rush to pass him the teapot. Wherever he went, Lin Hun would follow.
Lin Cheng was flustered, “Lin Hun, what are you doing?”
Lin Hun looked up, earnestly saying, “You’re now Su Shen’s big brother-in-law! You’re doing better than me. I’ve told you before, I’ll be your sidekick. Haven’t I said it many times?”
Lin Cheng was exasperated, “You’re not still into my wife, are you?”
Lin Hun shook his head vigorously, “Nope, just want to hang out with you, bro. ”
Lin Cheng sighed, knowing what was coming.
After a moment’s thought, he said, “As long as you don’t pursue my wife, if you want to help out, go ahead.”
Lin Hun immediately clasped his hands, “Bro, I’ll remember that. I’ll be good to you and Li Hua in the future.”
When Li Zhu came into the kitchen and saw this scene, he found it a little funny. However, seeing that Lin Hun was now well-behaved, he did not make fun of him.
“Brother Lin, all the stuff has been unloaded. I’ll go and check in with Brother Shen. Oh, and Brother Shen wants to know if you’ve found a job. If you haven’t, do you want to help out at his pig farm?”
Lin Hun’s eyes lit up when he heard that. He quickly grabbed Lin Cheng and said, “Brother Lin, say yes! Bring me along. I’ve been wanting to work there for a long time.”
He had applied to work at Su Shen’s farm but didn’t get the job as they weren’t hiring at the time.
Lin Hun always felt that working with men like Su Shen was the key to making something of himself..
