Chapter 16 - Suggestion
The old son-in-law also felt embarrassed. Lin Yuxing hadn’t brought it up, but he had genuinely forgotten. “Let's go back.” If they stayed any longer, he would have to endure the teasing looks from others.
He didn't want to stay there any longer, so after hearing his mother-in-law's words, he supported her and headed back.
Once everyone had left, Soong Qinghee looked at Eldest Lin and said, “Head, this is your Ah Yao and your aunt. Look how they treat our family? Even our only hen.”
Eldest Lin was also very angry, but Ah Yao was his, so what could he do?
“Dad, Ah Yao, Nanna cannot be forgiven. Like I said before, we must not submit to those who deserve our respect, but if there are any unnecessary words…” Lin Yuxing glanced at his father and continued, “We have already supported our little uncle's family for many years, are we to let them take advantage of us indefinitely?”
He knew the source of the problem was his dad. This man, honest in Lin Village, even let his own Ah Yao walk all over him and didn't know how to retaliate.
Eldest Lin felt a bit guilty under his brother's gaze and said, “From this incident, I’ve clearly seen Ah Yao and the rest for what they are. I won't be used so foolishly by them again.”
His family was already so poor that even food was an issue. His Ah Yao still wanted to extract more value from them, making everyone feel completely disheartened.
Lin Yuxing knew that things couldn’t be resolved immediately. He had to proceed step by step, and he still needed to heal his leg. Otherwise, limping around wouldn’t help at all.
“Ah Yao, I don't need to eat any more eggs. Should I sell them in town or plant some seeds?” Lin Yuxing asked as he saw Ah Yao place another boiled egg in front of him.
He originally planned to go up the mountain to see what kind of herbs could speed up the healing of his heel, but due to his foot injury, he had to delay this plan. Despite being the ruler of the apocalypse in his past life, he was a special forces doctor before the apocalypse and skilled at healing wounds.
Soong Qinghee stared at him, “Yu, what are you saying? Your leg must heal; otherwise, how will we get you married?” His brother had already been annulled, and if anything went wrong with his leg, it would be even harder to marry.
Lin Yuxing's mouth twitched at the word “married.” He was only fourteen, after all.
“Yu, if you want to find a husband, it’s your younger brother, not you. Stop talking so much and eat the egg.” In Soong Qinghee's heart, nothing was more important than his brother's leg.
As for his stomach, it had been years with no change. If it really didn’t work out, like mentioned before, if his laddie wanted to find a son-in-law, who would be willing unless it was an orphaned child?
Lin Yuxing didn’t argue with his Ah Yao and quickly took the eggs. “Younger brother, I will draw some herbs for you. Are there any at the foot of the mountain?” Honestly, he felt there was little hope, but his younger brother was only ten, and it was better for him not to go up the mountain in case he encountered wild beasts.
“Alright, Ah Gou,” Lin Yuchen said with a smile. Every time Brother Ah Ge gave him half of the eggs, his son would definitely be treasured.
“But Brother A-Ge, we don’t have any pen and paper?” Lin Yuchen frowned, realizing that these were things only rich people used.
“Go to the kitchen and get some charcoal, then find two planks,” Lin Yuxing said, rolling his eyes.
