The mother of the era is reborn to support her cannon fodder children!

Chapter 329 "This World Has Become Strange"

With a friend to guide them, Lin Shisheng didn't have to worry about finding food and lodging. He and a few newly acquainted brothers arrived in Haicheng without any trouble.

The flowering period is fourteen days.

It wasn't supposed to be this fast, but knowing he was going to pick someone up, the men in the transport team were very considerate. They felt it was a bit of a hardship for them to get there as soon as possible so their brother could see the person quickly and avoid any unforeseen circumstances.

Lin Shisheng was touched and gave each driver a sachet to refresh them and eliminate odors. The sachets were really useful and easily won over the drivers.

"Brother Lin, your sachet really works! Where did you get it? Do you have any extras? I'll pay for them!"

"I also want!"

“And me too. My mother can’t stand the wind and takes medicine all year round. The windows in the room we live in can’t be opened because the smell is so strong. If we had these refreshing sachets, she could sleep more comfortably.” A middle-aged man looked at Lin Shisheng sincerely.

“My sister made it. She said I work hard and get tired easily when driving alone, so she made this refreshing sachet for me. The refreshing smell is just a side effect.” Lin Shisheng smiled proudly but helplessly. “Last time she rode in my car, she felt that the gasoline smell in the car was very strong. She was afraid that I would get sick from the smell, so she added a herb to cleanse the smell. Well, I didn’t expect it to actually work.”

Lin Zhao: "..." I never said that.

"Your sister is really great; she cares about you."

"Hey Lin, does your sister have a boyfriend? What do you think of me?" A young man said, half-jokingly and half-seriously. "I'm not bad looking, my parents are both factory workers, my brother is married, my sister is married, and the family has separated, so I don't have to worry about mother-in-law/daughter-in-law relationships. My conditions aren't bad, are they?"

"Zhi?" The man with a keen sense of humor laughed heartily. "Qiangzi, didn't you say you weren't in a hurry to find a girlfriend? Why are you offering yourself up now?"

The young man named Qiangzi said, "I hit it off with Brother Lin at first sight. It would be wonderful if we could become family! Besides, Brother Lin is so righteous, how could his sister be anything less?"

Lin Shisheng gave him an approving look. "Good eye. But you've missed your chance, my sister got married."

He didn't say a single thing.

Qiangzi looked regretful. "That's such a pity."

Lin Shisheng shrugged.

It's not a pity.

He disliked everyone who had designs on Zhaozhao, but he couldn't deny that his brother-in-law was good and his sister's judgment was as sharp as ever.

After finishing their meal, the group officially entered Haicheng and the two groups parted ways.

Fearing that Lin Shisheng might not know the way, Qiangzi and the others explained a lot to him, even drawing a map that would make anyone's eyes dizzy, and left a phone number, telling him to call if he needed anything...

Thus, Lin Shisheng bid farewell to everyone and went to the place his mother had told him about.

Song Xiwei estimated the time and waited at the agreed place for a long time. When she saw her son, who was covered in dust, she told him to go wash up first, while she stayed behind to watch the car.

After taking a shower at the guesthouse to wash away the unpleasant smell, Lin Shisheng felt like he had lost two pounds.

Only then did I take the time to look around the house.

Smooth walls, bright lights, a nearly new bed, and a balcony...

He clicked his tongue a few times and looked at Lin Heling, "No wonder you and my mother stayed for so long. It's so comfortable here. If it were me, I wouldn't want to leave either."

"Stop talking nonsense, I'll take you to meet someone," Lin Heling said.

Lin Shisheng raised an eyebrow. He noticed that his father was more composed and at ease here, as if he was born in this place and had integrated well with it. His calm demeanor made him feel... unfamiliar.

"Okay, where to?" Lin Shisheng followed behind his father, his eyes constantly glancing at Lin Heling.

The tall, slender man in front turned around.

"Speak your mind," he said.

Lin Shisheng chuckled, "It's nothing, it's just that you seem a little... unfamiliar."

Before he could finish speaking, he was hit on the back of the head.

"Is it still unfamiliar now?" Lin Heling asked with a smile.

Lin Shisheng covered his head and said resentfully, "Dad, why are you copying my mother? Aren't you afraid of beating your son silly!"

"Even if I didn't fight you, you weren't that smart." Lin Heling said these hurtful words in a gentle tone.

Lin Shisheng: "..." It felt even more unfamiliar.

Even as he thought this, the corners of his mouth turned up, and the smile in his eyes deepened.

As they were talking, Lin Heling led Lin Shisheng to Lin De's residence. Before they even arrived, they were hit by a pungent, sour smell that almost made them leave.

"What's that smell? The toilet? This is a big city, right? The toilets in big cities are even more pungent than the ones at home!" Lin Shisheng muttered to himself, but he didn't cover his nose or show any disgust. His expression remained normal.

A look of satisfaction flashed in Lin Heling's eyes, but he remained silent.

Not long after Lin Shisheng finished speaking, they arrived at a low, earthen house.

"Knock knock knock knock" Lin Heling stepped forward and knocked on the door, the force and intervals of the knocks were carefully considered.

Lin Shisheng was stunned. What was going on? He felt like a complete idiot who knew nothing.

The world has become unfamiliar.

The wooden door opened, and a thin old man appeared inside.

Uncle De opened the door and pulled his young master and his little master into the house.

"Young Master, is this the Second Young Master?" Uncle De asked, his eyes occasionally flashing with a sharp glint as he looked at Lin Shisheng.

"??"

Young...Master?!
Is that what landlords call their children?
Lin Shisheng was in a daze, looking at his father in astonishment, wanting to hear an explanation.

"Father?" he called out, his eyes blank, weak, helpless, and pitiful.

Could his father have some special identity, like being the son of a gang leader? Thinking of the stories of Haicheng told to him by those who had traveled with him, Lin Shisheng's thoughts raced like wild horses across the wilderness.

Lin Heling said calmly, "This is Uncle De, an elder who watched me grow up. You should call him Grandpa De."

Lin Shisheng obediently greeted him, "Grandpa De."

He was full of questions and had a lot of doubts to ask, but he was patient and didn't press the issue at an inappropriate time.

Uncle De looked at Lin Shisheng and nodded, "If the young master knew about this, he would be very happy."

Lin Shisheng's mind raced. The young master was his father, and the young master that Grandpa De was talking about must be... his biological grandfather?

His grandfather is still alive?!

“Shisheng, your grandfather is my only remaining relative in Haicheng. You’ve seen his situation; it’s not good. I want to take him back to our hometown. But he’s being watched by his enemies, so it’s not convenient for him to take the train or car. I can only ask you to come and pick him up. Do you think this is feasible?” Lin Heling asked.

Enemy...

Lin Shisheng's eyes flickered a few times.

He was right.

My dad really is the young master of some gang!

“Sure! That’s easy. When are we leaving?” Lin Shisheng asked.

Lin Heling asked, "How about the night after tomorrow?"

"I have no objection, you can decide," Lin Shisheng said.

He glanced around the room and thought, "Poor thing, it's not even as good as my toilet. It seems the gang is being suppressed quite a bit."

Uncle De saw through Lin Shisheng's thoughts, smiled, and said nothing.

The young master's son doesn't seem to possess the Lin family's traditional virtues, but he is straightforward and polite, a good young man. ...

A dark and windy night is the perfect time to do something shady.

Lin Shisheng picking people up by car wasn't exactly stealing, but to avoid being discovered by someone with ulterior motives, they left late at night.

The truck rumbled away from where it stood.

The sound startled the sleeping people nearby, who turned over before going back to sleep.

Driver Lin drove for four hours before stopping to rest.

The three people in the car were sore all over and looked ashen-faced.

Especially Uncle De, when has the old man ever ridden in a car like this before? It was so bumpy, his soul almost flew away!
He staggered out of the car and said, "It's really not easy."

It's saying that Lin Shisheng's job is not easy.

Song Xiwei looked at her second son with heartache, knowing that this was a job he liked and that he would never agree to quit. She simply said, "Be careful when you drive. Take a break when you're tired. Don't push yourself."

“What the young mistress says makes sense,” Uncle De said.

Song Xiwei nearly tripped and fell flat on her face. Being called "young mistress" was so awkward!
She looked at her husband.

Lin Heling patted Xiwei's hand. He had said it before, but Uncle De wouldn't listen. The old man was very insistent, which was not surprising. The older generation always had things they wanted to hold onto. If they lost those things, they would feel empty inside!

Meeting her husband's apologetic gaze, Song Xi looked away, thinking that she still needed to get used to it sooner rather than later.

Fortunately, the old man, though stubborn, knew his limits and didn't shout in front of outsiders; otherwise, they would have been arrested dozens of times over.

Lin Shisheng treated his parents and Uncle De to a meal and then took them to the nearest train station.

"How did you get here?" Lin Heling asked.

“Take the train? There are enemies at the Haicheng station, but not here, right? It takes a long time to get home from here, and the train is bumpy with no seats. Who can stand that?” Lin Shisheng said. “Dad, where’s the letter of introduction? I need it.”

He knew that his parents had obtained a lot of letters of introduction, which would come in handy.

As for the missing proof, he'll figure something out. If all else fails, he'll forge one. One of his buddies knows how to do that; he's only learned the basics, which is enough.

"Will it work?" Song Xiwei asked, still worried.

She found that the checks outside were quite strict.

“Okay!” Lin Shisheng nodded, straightened his clothes, and walked forward.

This walk took three hours.

When he returned, he was holding three train tickets.

“Here.” Driver Lin waved his hand smugly.

"Not bad," Lin Heling praised.

Uncle De looked at Lin Shisheng in surprise and laughed, "Shisheng is quick-witted, just like the old man!"

In a short time, Lin Shisheng could see the admiration that Grandpa De had for the old man he was talking about.

It's his good fortune to have such a capable person like him.

“My surname is Lin, and I am also a member of the Lin family, so of course I am like the elders of the Lin family.”

Uncle De was slightly taken aback, and then said, "Yes, yes, you are a grandson of the Lin family, so it's not surprising that you resemble the old master."

A sense of regret inevitably arises in my heart; if only the old man were still alive.

Thinking about it, he felt dejected. But when he thought of Haicheng's situation, a faint smile appeared on his thin, wrinkled old face, and a sharp glint flashed in his eyes.

Lin Shisheng felt a sudden chill.

"Shisheng, take our luggage back for us. We'll be home when we get there," Lin Heling said to him.

Song Xiwei said, "Didn't you say you have friends traveling with you? It's best to travel with them and be careful on the road."

Uncle De pulled out a diamond-encrusted antique dagger from somewhere and stuffed it into Lin Shisheng's hand, saying, "Keep it for self-defense."

The old man's eyes were as deep as a cold pool. "Remember, no matter what happens, make sure you live first. Only with life can you make waves; without life, even a dragon is useless."

These were the survival principles that the old man taught him, and he passed them on to the younger generation of the Lin family.

"This thing..." Uncle De's gaze fell on the dagger, a hint of nostalgia flashing in his eyes, "It belongs to the Lin family, so handing it over to you is returning it to its rightful owner."

If it weren't for meeting the young master and having the help of the little young master to escape Haicheng, who knows who would have benefited from these things?
Now that's settled, those with ulterior motives won't be able to get their hands on anything belonging to the Lin family!
In today's world, even buying a knife is a hassle, let alone such an exquisite dagger.

Lin Shisheng really liked it, but he didn't know if he could accept it, so he looked at his father.

Lin Heling nodded. "Take it."

Lin Shisheng carefully put away the dagger and thanked Uncle De, "Thank you, Grandpa De. My sister will definitely like a generous elder like you!"

Ironically, when Lin Heling and Uncle De recognized each other, they didn't talk much about their families. As a result, Uncle De didn't even know how many children he had.

Upon hearing Lin Shisheng's words, Uncle De's face lit up with surprise and delight. "You have a younger sister?"

Before Lin Shisheng could answer, he turned to Lin Heling and asked, "Young Master, is she a girl from the Lin family?!"

Don't blame him for making a fuss, it's just that... the Lin family is dominated by men and has few women. There are many sons and grandsons, but few daughters and granddaughters. Girls in the Lin family are extremely precious, living more comfortably than princesses.

Take the patriarch's younger sister, for example. She was the only girl in the Lin family. When she turned sixteen, the old patriarch gifted her a whole street of shops, all of them prime locations. When she turned eighteen, he gifted her two small villas and a car...

Miss is capable, and her personality is like that of the Lin family—strong and assertive. The old man often laments that something is wrong, something is wrong, that he made a mistake in giving birth to her. He also says, "Why should a girl work so hard? It would be so much better to dress up beautifully and go shopping..." Although he says this, he secretly supports his daughter's career.

Later, when Miss turned twenty, the old master wanted her to get married, but Miss was unwilling, saying that those foolish and greedy men were not good enough for her, and she refused to marry. So until the Lin family left, Miss was alone.

For the old man, he had no shortage of sons, grandsons, or daughters, but he lacked a granddaughter. He often said, "When will I, an old man, have a granddaughter? Then my life will be complete!"

did not expect……

Unbeknownst to them, the granddaughter the old man had been longing for had already appeared.

Lin Heling nodded helplessly, "She's a girl from the Lin family."

He held his wife's hand, acknowledging her hard work and sacrifices, "I've only been married once, and all five of my children were born to Xiwei. She's the one who has worked the hardest."

Uncle De looked at Song Xiwei and bowed deeply, "On behalf of the Lin family, I thank you, young mistress."

Song Xiwei: "..." If you really want to thank me, please change your address back to Xiao Song or Comrade Song.

Uncle De pretended not to notice her discomfort and continued, "...I'm so happy that the Lin family has so few daughters."

He firmly believed that the Lin family would return, and that the young master would bring the young mistress and several children back to the Lin family. He hoped that getting used to it sooner would prevent them from feeling out of place when they returned.

"What's the girl's name?" Uncle De asked Lin Heling.

“Lin Zhao, the Zhao as bright as the moon,” Lin Heling replied.

"Great name!!" Uncle De kept praising it, showing how much he doted on the child.

Lin Heling then recited the names of Lin Shichang and his brothers.

"The old master will definitely be satisfied with this name," Uncle De said.

at the same time.

Several shifty-eyed men with ruthless glints rushed into Lin De's place, ransacking the place and searching for something.
