The couple made a living in the 1950s.

When Lin Zhao heard her say these words, a smug look appeared on her face.

She glared at Lin Ai fiercely. This damn girl refused to knock on the door and made her wait outside for so long.

She'll freeze to death.

Lin Zhao was very proud and followed Lin Manyu into the yard.

Lin Ai silently looked at her mother walking in front of her.

Ever since those ten years ago, my family members have been unwilling to have any contact with me.

In addition to living in fear every day, she also had to feel sad about the ruthlessness of her family.

Now, everything is settled.

She was really fed up with them coming to her house again.

When Lin Hanyu and Bai Ye entered the living room, the grandchildren were sitting on the sofa listening to the radio.

There have been a lot of things going on at home recently, so she hasn't taken the children to the Cultural Palace.

Tomorrow is Sunday, I have to take the kids over to have a look.

When the two granddaughters grow up a little, it will become difficult for them to learn dancing.

Lin Zhaoshi sat down on the sofa with her legs crossed, without any politeness at all.

Lin Hanyu frowned slightly and looked at her shoes. Was this how Second Auntie’s yard used to employ servants?

Lin Zhao met her gaze and belatedly realized that she felt a little uncomfortable.

She put her legs down and stepped on the ground with her feet, secretly glancing at Lin Manyu.

"You can marry the young master of the Bai family according to the engagement, and your life should be good."

"I don't know whether our young lady, uncle, young master and young lady are doing well."

"My second uncle and his family went to England a long time ago. Don't you know that?"

"But I didn't know your family was in China!"

Lin Zhao became a little excited as she spoke, saying that there are no good capitalists.

Back then, the news that these servants received was that the whole family was going abroad.

Who would have thought that there would still be someone in their family left in the country.

"Where are Third Master and Third Madam? Why can't I see them?"

"My parents both died on the battlefield during the war of resistance against Japan."

Lin Hanyu didn't look up when he said this, but lowered his head to make tea attentively.

After she had made the tea, she reached out and poured Lu'an Guapian into the Huashen cup in front of Lin Zhaoshi.

Then he looked up and met Lin Zhao's eyes.

"Not only did my family stay in the country, but my uncle's family stayed too."

"My uncle and aunt passed away a few years ago, and my eldest brother has been fighting with the army."

"He was made a general when the country was founded, and is now a lieutenant general. I don't know if you met Mingbo the last time you went to the military compound to look for him."

"As for asking our family to provide for your old age, I think you'd better think it through carefully."

"From ancient times to the present, there has never been a servant who took money and left home for more than 40 years before coming back to his master's house to ask for money again."

"Have you spent all the two large yellow croakers and twenty dollars that our Lin family gave you and your wife?"

Lin Zhaoshi's heart was beating fast as she listened to Lin Manyu's words.

When the Lin family dismissed them, the only daughter of the third master of the Lin family was still a little girl.

How come she even knew how much severance pay the family gave to the servants?

The Lin family has been doing business for longer than the previous dynasty ruled China.

No one knows how much money their family has, but we know that they definitely cannot spend it all.

In the past in Yangzhou, everyone said that the Lin family and the Bai family originated from the Eastern Han Dynasty.

The family was at its peak during the Wei, Jin, Southern and Northern Dynasties.

During the Song Dynasty, aristocratic families were massacred and their property was confiscated.

The ancestors of the Lin and Bai families were the two descendants who survived by chance.

They found the family's hidden gold, silver and money.

Change your name and start a new life.

From then on, two young men from other places came to Yang City to do business. One was named Bai and the other was named Lin.

When she was a child, she learned to read for a period of time with the young ladies, although the words were too complicated for her literacy.

Even though she didn't understand the meaning, she remembered it word for word.

Thinking about the Lin family's immense wealth, Lin Zhaoshi was reluctant to give up her good life.

During the years she worked as a servant, her food and clothing were no worse than those of the ladies in wealthy families.

But think about it, the young master of the Lin family is now a general of the Hua Party.

She was a little scared again.

Lin Zhaoshi sat there with her head down, thinking about the pros and cons, without saying anything.

Lin Ai, who was sitting next to her, felt increasingly depressed until he fell.

She had not yet graduated when the family moved out of the host family's home.

Her father did not ask her to stop studying, and she was always grateful.

Since I was a child, I have always worn the clothes left over by my mother.

It was not until she graduated and started working that she bought herself her first new piece of clothing.

The thing her mother told her most often was that since there was no money at home, she should save it for food.

Now, she knew that her family actually had two large yellow croakers and twenty dollars at that time, and all of a sudden, many things that had happened came to her mind.

My parents work for the Lin family, and the monthly salary they receive for their food and accommodation is not low.

The Lin family provided housing for the whole family, and occasionally Mom and Dad could bring some leftover food home.

Given the family's living expenses at the time, the two of them could definitely save enough money for the month.

In addition, the Lin family gave two large yellow croakers and twenty dollars as severance pay.

Their family was considered a relatively wealthy family at the time.

My brother doesn't not go to school because his family has no money.

He simply doesn't like reading.

The reason why I was able to go to school was because my parents and I had to choose one child from each servant's family to support his education.

She is the only one of moderate age in the family.

She had the opportunity to go to school because of the Lin family, not because her parents wanted to support her education.

She could continue her studies after leaving the Lin family because her parents saw that she had a good job and could pay more salary to the family.

It's not that I let her study just because I want her to live a good life.

Lin Ai suddenly felt that this was the only moment in her life that she had lived most clearly in all these years.

No one in the living room noticed Lin Ai's abnormality.

Lin Hanyu's attention was all on the tea set.

Lin Zhao was a little scared because she had just heard that the eldest son of the Lin family was a general.

She felt a little regretful. If she was locked up, she would suffer for the rest of her life.

The severance pay I received after working as a servant for most of my life should be spent cheaply on my daughter-in-law and granddaughter-in-law.

Then what's the point of her living?

The children had already turned off the radio.

The living room was quiet, and Lin Hanyu and Bai Ye were not in a hurry.

Give her enough time to think it over.

Lin Zhao got up and left ten minutes later.

The old lady left without saying a word or even raising her head. She must have been feeling unwilling.

However, Lin Hanyu and Bai Ye didn't care.

As long as she doesn't disturb their family's life, what she does is none of their business.

Lin Zhao's arrival did not cause much trouble at home.

The next morning, Lin Hanyu woke up early, which was rare for her.

When she got dressed and went downstairs, her eldest daughter-in-law was frying shredded potatoes in the kitchen.

"Mom, wake up."

"Well, I have to take the little ones to the Cultural Palace after breakfast."

"We go early and come back early."

"Okay, my mom also asked me to help my nephews and nieces find some suitable musical instruments to learn."

"Xiaoguang's Aihua is just seven years old. It's a good time."

"It's Aiyuan and Jianping. They're a bit old."

"It's not that bad. It might be a little late to learn dancing."

"It's the right time for a fifteen or sixteen-year-old girl to learn a musical instrument..."

"Mom, there are five duck eggs left at home. Let's go to Dongdan Vegetable Market after returning from the Cultural Palace to see if there are any duck eggs available."

Just as Lin Hanyu finished speaking, the second daughter-in-law came down from the second floor of the kitchen carrying a basin.

In addition to the coal stove for earth heating on the second floor of the kitchen at home, there are also some clay jars for pickled salted duck eggs and wooden boxes with green vegetables.
