Others are fleeing famine, but I am a salted fish
Chapter 298: Being spoiled is like killing a child
As for the jar of wine, since it was unopened, they could only vaguely smell a clear aroma of wine. It was only after the family opened the lid that they realized that this jar of wine was the real gift.
Unfortunately, just when the six guards were ready to beat the young master to the ground for a jar of wine, the real boss came in.
Master Sun's nose was sharper than a dog's. He could smell the rich aroma of wine even through the hanging flower gate in the courtyard. He followed the smell and came over. When he saw the wine jar, he couldn't take his eyes off it. He stepped over his son and six guards and walked straight forward. He picked up the wine jar and left without saying a word...
gone…….
Already….
The seven masters and servants who had fallen out and fought over wine stretched out their hands to Erkang, wailing in their hearts.
Unfortunately, no one paid any attention to them and they were left to be blown away by the wind.
-----------------
Over in the village outside the town, with the seven friendly "neighbors" having seen off, the business of digging pits and setting traps came to an end, and everyone was able to free up their hands for a while at night to have a good rest.
Grandpa Lin asked Lin Baotian and several young men to first divide the "compensation" brought by the seven people among the five people. The 200 kilograms of rice and 200 kilograms of flour were put into the public pot for everyone to eat together.
Lin Baotian, Lin Shuqin, Lin Dashan, Lin Xiaoshan, and the hunter Lin Quanshui all said that they had no objection to the food being included in the public treasury. They did not need the other things, such as more than ten rolls of various cloths, ten pairs of soap shoes, and a set of bedding, so they took them out and distributed them to everyone. After all, they really did not do anything. The seven hundred taels yesterday were too hot to handle, and it would be unreasonable to take more today.
Even the wives of several people generously expressed their willingness to share the blessing, and these supplies were also included in the public treasury and could be distributed by Grandpa Lin.
Of course, behind such generosity is that they each received a lot of money. Grandpa Lin saw it clearly, but he didn't point it out. After all, San Ya earned this money with her own ability, and it was given to the five people as compensation. He couldn't refute it, otherwise, it would weaken San Ya's prestige in everyone's hearts.
However, they still need to be punished, so as not to let them develop the habit of getting something for nothing. Otherwise, in the long run, whenever a conflict occurs, they will rely on San Ya to resolve the trouble for them, and then give them corresponding "compensation". This kind of thinking is not good.
So, after the outsiders left, only the family members were left in the manor, and behind closed doors, Grandpa bluntly pointed out the ownership of the seven hundred taels. Even though two of them were his own son and grandson, he still showed no mercy and scolded them. He made them understand that the seven hundred taels were a gift from San Ya, not something they earned with their own abilities.
Grandpa also approved the hunter Lin Quanshui, because he was the only family outside Linjia Village left for this. He could feel that although the hunter Lin didn't say it, he was still a little uncomfortable in his heart. He always felt that he was from another village and couldn't be compared with people from the same village as them.
In fact, he had misunderstood this point.
These people have endured so many hardships and life-and-death tests along the way, and now they can still live under the same roof. There is no need to distinguish whether they are from the same village.
Therefore, Grandpa Lin did not treat Hunter Lin as an outsider and did not make false insinuations. He just gave him and the other four people a good lesson. He told them to be clear-headed and not to be blinded by a little benefit and do shameful things like the Luo family. Also, they should think clearly that they can live well and have money now, thanks to Lin Sanya.
Don't think others are too talkative. Be a good person and have a clear conscience. If San Ya hadn't stood up for them and intimidated those people, do they think these people would still come to visit with gifts today?
Want to eat fart.
As for the seven hundred taels, San Ya gave it to five people, and he didn't say anything. But if the same thing happens again next time, everyone should think about it and think clearly, how much compensation can they get?
Grandpa Lin scolded everyone for half an hour. During the process, Lin Xiaoyue felt that it was unnecessary to be so strict and wanted to interrupt Grandpa's lecture, but Grandpa yelled back at her. He also scolded her. Now she is with everyone, and everyone still relies on her. What if she is not here for something?
This is the same principle as spoiling a child is like killing him.
She tried to help them because they had escaped together, but she forgot that if one day she was gone, what would happen to the relatives and friends she protected?
Lin Xiaoyue wanted to refute, but when she opened her mouth, she thought of the children who were protected by their parents and families in the early days of the apocalypse, just like in peacetime, like flowers in a greenhouse. But once they leave the protection of their family, the delicate flowers will quickly wither and die.
Grandpa Lin’s words struck her like a bolt of lightning, and she stood there in a daze.
Yes, she habitually puts herself in the position of a strong person, and gives the best protection within her ability to those who are included in the protection circle. However, she didn't expect that she was not a god, and couldn't be with everyone all the time. Even tigers have their naps, what if one day she is not there?
Lin Xiaoyue's body trembled. The more she thought about it, the more frightened she became. She was too conceited. Fortunately, Grandpa Lin spoke frankly to wake her up today. Otherwise, if this continued for a long time, she would definitely make a big mistake.
Under Grandpa Lin's harsh criticism, the others also felt deeply guilty and blamed themselves for their own little thoughts.
Yes, how could they forget that the Luo family was blinded by profit, which was why they were despised by everyone and expelled from the team. But now they are following the old path of the Luo family.
It was not because they accepted the money with a clear conscience, and the amount was less than the amount of Luo's greed, that they forgot that the money did not belong to them. But what about them? After Lin Xiaoyue handed them the banknotes, they all felt that the conflict was worth it.
Not only were they unscathed, but they also made a net profit of 100 taels of silver... They were so blinded by the benefits that they never thought about whether those people would be easy to deal with if they were to rely on themselves alone. Could they get out of those people unscathed?
They didn't dare to think about it, because, without the third girl to stand up for them, they would have no chance of winning against those people on their own.
But what about them? They got something for nothing and are still so proud of themselves?
At once, everyone in the hall realized their own shortcomings, oh no, except Lin the Hunter.
He was very happy at the moment, not for any other reason, but because Mr. Lin did not treat him as an exception and scolded him harshly like those people who came out of the Lin family with the old man.
What does this show?
This means that the old man doesn't treat him as an outsider.
Through this period of time, he knew that Mr. Lin had been the head of Linjia Village for decades, and his attitude was the attitude of everyone. The old man treated him as one of his own, regardless of whether he was close or distant, and only then did he rudely scold him.
