Chapter 10
The chicken soup was served.
Little Lin Xia, the fourth daughter, was captivated by the chicken leg in the chicken soup.
She didn’t want to look, but it insisted on being seen.
It kept saying, “Eat me, come eat me.”
Such an enthusiastic call, how could she refuse?
As soon as she reached out, she was slapped.
Lin Xia looked at her mother pitifully. It was the chicken leg that wanted to be eaten.
It wasn’t her fault.
Lin Qing looked at the little girl’s black hands, and her mind seemed to go back to when she was studying geography.
She was a bit dazed.
Those hands really needed to be washed.
Wang Lan-feng ignored her younger daughter’s pitiful look and said kindly, “This chicken soup is for your third sister.”
For things like exams, the couple believed that they should sacrifice a chicken to heaven and give the whole nourishing chicken to the person taking the exam.
Only then could they be successful.
Lin Qing:
Lin Xia was heartbroken. She couldn’t even get a crumb of the whole chicken. There were only two chickens in the family, and now that one was killed, they would have to kill one less at New Year’s.
That meant they would have to eat less.
How could she bear it?
The little girl had no idea that Lin Qing was going to take the college entrance examination.
She went out to play every day and didn’t care about family matters.
Besides, the adults intentionally kept it a secret, so the little girl couldn’t possibly know.
At this moment, Lin Xia suddenly felt unfair.
Her parents were biased.
They were extremely biased.
Why could only her third sister eat the chicken, while she had to watch?
Her third sister was drinking the soup, and she was still watching!
The more she thought about it, the more wronged she felt.
Her drooping mouth trembled slightly.
She held back,
She couldn’t cry,
She couldn’t be spineless.
But she couldn’t help it,
“Waa It’s not fair. I catch bugs for the chickens every day, and I don’t get a single bite. Even the chicken wouldn’t agree, didn’t you ask it?”
Wang Lan-feng couldn’t help but laugh. If you asked the chicken, it wouldn’t agree.
You were going to eat it.
Every child is precious, her younger daughter’s crying made her heart ache. “You can have a chicken leg, and the rest is for your third sister, okay?”
Lin Da-hua, as a father, had a different perspective, and he was a bit slow.
He just thought that his younger daughter’s round head was black and looked like a split potato when she looked up and cried.
It was a bit funny.
And her trembling pigtails were very cute.
“Haha…”
Lin Xia and Lin Qing: “…”
The little girl was heartbroken. She was so sad, but her father was laughing so happily.
So, she cried even harder.
Lin Da-hua also felt sorry for his younger daughter. “You and your sister can drink the chicken soup together.”
“And your mother can eat some too.”
It was his fault that he couldn’t provide a better life for his wife and daughters.
Every family lived like this, Wang Lan-feng didn’t think it was hard. She knew he loved her, and that was all that mattered in life.
After serving each of her daughters a bowl of chicken soup, she didn’t intend to touch it anymore.
Later, she thought about it,
and served her husband a bowl too.
Lin Da-hua pushed it back to her, “You drink it.”
Lin Qing stared at the thick layer of oil in the chicken soup, thinking, it’s not good to drink so much…
She passed the chicken leg in her bowl to the little girl and turned to the couple, “Mom, bring some chicken soup to Yangyang and Tiantian later, I won’t drink it.”
How could that be, it was made especially for you. Wang Lan-feng was about to speak, but Lin Qing said first, “I’m afraid I’ll get a stomachache if I eat so much greasy food.”
This was a strong reason.
If she got a stomachache and missed the exam, good intentions would turn into bad things.
The couple started to feel sorry for the chicken again.
They had killed it in vain.
They were both frowning, as if they had lost a lot.
Little Lin Xia slurped it down.
She was intoxicated by the deliciousness.
Lin Qing smiled and served Lin Da-hua another bowl of chicken soup, “Dad, you drink it too. Don’t keep frowning. We can kill another chicken after I finish the college entrance examination.”
Lin Da-hua didn’t dare to push away the soup that his daughter had personally served him. He drank it with a warm heart.
This chicken soup was really fragrant, more fragrant than usual.
The Lin family’s dinner was very heartwarming.
Lin Er-gu’s family’s dinner was very stressful.
The Zhao family’s dinner was very bland.
The hot summer.
The stuffy classroom.
The examinees were writing furiously, answering their future.
Math began with simplification, language ended with the Tang Emperor Taizong and his ministers discussing how to stop theft, the English essay “my friend” made Lin Qing think for a moment, her friend…
She would write about Zhao Hui-zhou.
Politics was a fabrication.
Luckily, Lin Qing could answer some questions in geography and history.
When the college entrance examination officially ended, Lin Qing only had six words in her heart, do your best and leave the rest to fate.
Lin Qing turned back to the school and the examinees who were coming out, and smiled.
Actually, it was pretty good to have another chance.
She suddenly felt younger.
She walked home with youthful steps, entered the house, lay down on the bed, and fell fast asleep.
She snored loudly.
When Wang Lan-feng and Lin Da-hua came back from work, they heard the snoring and both instinctively softened their steps, even though they were walking on dirt, there wasn’t much noise.
Lin Qing was woken up by a commotion. At this moment, the sky outside was gradually turning dark.
The room was a bit dim.
She could only hear someone shouting outside, “Da-hua, your second sister’s family and the Zhao family are fighting. It’s quite a scene. You should go and take a look.”
Lin Da-hua couldn’t sit still when he heard this, he went out and followed the people to the Zhao family’s house.
Wang Lan-feng was afraid that Lin Da-hua would soften up and go to help, so she followed him.
Hearing that the couple had both left, Lin Qing also quickly got up, got out of bed, put on her shoes, and went out.
She was afraid that the couple would get involved and suffer a loss.
The three of them left one after another. The eldest sister happened to see their backs from her in-law’s courtyard, and she was also afraid that they would suffer a loss, so she quickly put down her work and followed them.
Mrs. Deng, with a worried face, shouted into the house, “Sheng-zi, go with your wife to take a look. Don’t let them fight.”
Although she didn’t like her daughter-in-law always meddling in her family’s affairs, but they were family,
They couldn’t be beaten up.
There were still not enough people.
Mrs. Deng worriedly shouted again, “Er-li, you go too, and old man, all of you go. If the Zhao family dares to hit our relatives, you guys be tough and scare them off.”
Just like that, a bunch of people followed them.
Outside the Zhao family’s courtyard, there was a crowd of people.
In the courtyard, two groups of people were already fighting, and the scene was indeed quite impressive.
Some were pulling hair.
Some were rubbing people on the ground.
Those who were smashing things were also quite forceful.
Shanglin Village, most people had the surname Lin.
Logically, the Deng family and the Cui family were outsiders, but they had lived in the village for so many years, and they were more or less related to the villagers.
The two families were fighting. You know what, it was quite a sight.
When the Deng family’s men rushed over, they thought it was serious, and they were all ready to charge in and fight together. But when they got closer, they saw.
Well, well.
The Lin family, including the eldest daughter-in-law, were standing in the innermost circle watching the show.
Even the youngest Lin family girl had squeezed in with a few other children, shouting, “Fight, fight, fight.”
“Beat her to death.”
Little Lin Xia, with a flushed face, watched her second aunt being rubbed on the ground,
She was delighted…
