Lin Jiaxue panicked after being ordered to leave.

She shouldn't have said such nonsense just now. Now she has offended Lin Wanshu. She will definitely be scolded to death when she returns.

Most importantly, what about her brother Yaocheng?

"No... No, Wan Shu, it's all a misunderstanding..."

She explained somewhat weakly.

Lin Wanshu snorted coldly.

"You mean my ears were hurting just now, and you didn't say anything about me sleeping in?"

Seeing that her quibbling was no longer meaningful, Lin Jiaxue could only explain her purpose.

"I was wrong just now. I was bewildered for a moment and said such things. I came here to call you home for dinner. Dad was very happy to hear that you were back, so he killed a chicken and asked me to come and call you."

Lin Wanshu: …

Would Li Xiuzhi be so kind as to ask Lin Jiemin to kill a chicken to treat her?

I’m afraid it’s not a Hongmen Banquet?

But since he has called her, it would be bad for her not to go. She will have to go there in two days anyway, so she might as well go today.

"I see."

After Lin Wanshu finished speaking, she ignored her and went back to her room.

She had indeed prepared everything for returning to the Lin family in advance and placed them all in the space.

When I took them out, there were two full bags.

Lin Jiaxue hadn't left yet, and when she saw that she was carrying so many things, even a piece of bacon, her eyes widened.

She was so generous that she was willing to give him a piece of bacon?

You know, when she got married, she gave her a set of books.

It would have been fine if she had given me books by great men, but she chose to give me books that she couldn't understand at all.

Lin Jiaxue was so angry at that time.

How could she not be shocked when she saw her taking a piece of bacon, which was contrary to her usual behavior?

Just as I was surprised, I saw a tall and straight man walking out of the house.

With just one glance, Lin Jiaxue was stunned on the spot!

What a strong aura!

Even more impressive than the factory director of her husband's factory... No... There is no comparison at all. This is the aura of a strong man, which is not comparable to that of an ordinary small factory director.

Such a contrast made her previous pride look like a joke.

"Sister...brother-in-law..."

Under the man's powerful aura, Lin Jiaxue stammered as she greeted him.

However, the man didn't even look at her and just walked over with a child in his arms.

Xiao Miaomiao had just woken up and was still sleepy. She hugged her father's neck, leaned on his shoulder, and half-closed her eyes.

Lin Jiaxue was ignored and suddenly felt awkward and embarrassed.

What was even more embarrassing was Lin Wanshu's mocking look.

However, no one in the Qin family seemed to pay attention to her.

Although they didn't say anything, they all protected Lin Wanshu with their actions.

This made Lin Jiaxue regret even more.

Why didn't she control her mouth just now?

It was already five o'clock in the afternoon. Because it was a sudden visit to the Lin family, Lin Wanshu did not plan to bring Hengheng with her and only brought Miaomiao.

"Let me carry it."

Qin Yan held Xiao Miaomiao in one hand and used his other free hand to take the bag from Lin Wanshu.

The bag was indeed a bit heavy, so Lin Wanshu didn't bother to be polite and just handed it over.

After he took it, she reached out to hug Miaomiao.

"Let me hug you."

After all, it's not very convenient for him to hold the baby in one hand and carry things in the other.

However, Qin Yan didn't even intend to let her hold the baby. He turned his body to the side and avoided her.

"No, it's not heavy, I can do it."

The bag in my hand weighs at most 20 to 30 kilograms, and Miaomiao weighs about the same.

This weight is nothing to him.

Lin Jiaxue saw this from the side and couldn't help but be a little surprised.

Aren’t soldiers said to be rough? How could he be so considerate?

Everything was ready. Lin Wanshu said hello to her parents-in-law and went out.

The two families are located at one end of the village and the other at the other, with dozens of households in between.

The couple had outstanding temperaments to begin with, and Lin Wanshu also brought a piece of bacon with her. As she walked along, she attracted countless eyes.

Everyone enthusiastically asked where the two were going.

When they found out that they were going back to her mother's home, everyone couldn't help but be shocked.

"What a big piece of bacon! Lin Jiemin is so lucky to have such a promising daughter."

"Who said it wasn't? Look at those two big bags. They must be filled with a lot of good stuff, right?"

"Need I say more? They both have salaries, and they send things back to the Qin family every now and then. It's been such a long time since they went back to their parents' home, how could they miss out on good things?"

As they walked along the road, they were accompanied by envious discussions.

After hearing this, Lin Jiaxue felt very uncomfortable.

Although her husband works on a pig farm, she is from the countryside and has no job. Her parents-in-law look down on her and treat her with indifference on a daily basis. How could they possibly give her anything to take back to her parents' home?

Wu Dahong was not a stingy person, but he listened to his mother too much. Every time he got his salary, he gave it all to his mother.

It is harder than climbing to the sky for Lin Jiaxue to get some money to spend.

Everyone in the village envied her for marrying a man with a job, but no one knew the pain she was going through behind the scenes.

Seeing Lin Wanshu so glorious and the man being so considerate, Lin Jiaxue felt so regretful in her heart.

Her mother had clearly advised her many times to marry Qin Yan.

But she disliked being a military wife because it was too hard and refused to do it, so she gave the opportunity to Lin Wanshu.

If she had listened to the advice at that time, how could Lin Wanshu have been in trouble?

The more she thought about it, the more she regretted it. Lin Jiaxue couldn't help but blame Li Xiuzhi.

If she had persisted a little longer and tried to persuade him a little more, how could she have missed such a good marriage?

Not long after, they arrived at the end of the village.

The Lin family's house is at the foot of the mountain. The road in the village ends abruptly at their door. Behind it is a steep hillside and there is no road going up.

Before entering the door, I could see smoke rising from the chimney in the distance.

From time to time, Li Xiuzhi's scolding voice could be heard from inside.

It sounded like he was scolding a child, but also like he was scolding Lin Jiemin.

Lin Wanshu looked at the door that she had not stepped into for more than ten years in her previous life, but there was no trace of nostalgia in her eyes, only indifference.

Xiao Miaomiao got down and walked on her own halfway.

At this moment, he was holding Lin Wanshu's hand and looking around with curiosity.

When Lin Jiaxue heard her mother still scolding, she quickly shouted, "Mom, Sister Wanshu and her husband are back."

As soon as the words fell, there was a sudden silence inside.

After a while, a woman with a long face and high cheekbones came out.

When she saw Lin Wanshu, she was stunned at first.

But soon, a warm smile appeared on his face.

"Oh, it's Wan Shu. Hurry up and bring Qin Yan in to sit down. Your dad has been waiting for you for a long time."

Lin Wanshu: …

Is the sun about to rise from the west?

Li Xiuzhi actually smiled at her so warmly?

"Aunt Li."

Lin Wanshu nodded at her indifferently.

Let's see what they want to do.

Li Xiuzhi had expected Lin Wanshu's indifference, but she did not feel disappointed and continued to warmly invite the two into the house.

"Wan Shu, Aunt Li was wrong in the past. Every time I think about how I treated you, I feel bad. Today, I heard that you were back, so I thought of cooking a meal and inviting you to come over for dinner."

Li Xiuzhi spoke with such sincerity that even her eyes were slightly red.

She looked like she was really reflecting on herself.

Lin Wanshu just watched her performance quietly without saying a word.

Li Xiuzhi kept talking to herself, but soon she couldn't hold on any longer.

Finally, seeing that she really didn't intend to reply, he shut up awkwardly.

After they entered the yard, they saw Lin Jiemin standing at the kitchen door.

"dad."

"father in law."

Lin Wanshu and Qin Yan greeted each other one after another, but their voices were equally cold.

The expression on Lin Jiemin's face looked a little embarrassed and a little guilty.

"Hey... Hey... You guys are back?"

He stammered a greeting.

Lin Wanshu's eyes flickered slightly, and she felt that he looked too strange today.

In the yard, Lin Yaoming was holding a dog in his hand, looking straight at Xiao Miaomiao.

The big black dog stretched out its front paws forward, leaned forward slightly, and made low threatening sounds from its mouth.

Where had Miaomiao seen such a ferocious animal? She was so scared that she couldn't help but hide behind her father.

Qin Yan's eyes darkened and he looked at Lin Yaoming coldly.

Lin Yaoming is used to being domineering in the team, and everyone who sees him has to give him some respect.

This also cultivated his fearless character.

But no matter how fierce he was, he was just a child of eleven or twelve years old. How could he have seen someone like Qin Yan who had been to the front line and killed the enemy?

At this moment, just meeting Qin Yan's gloomy gaze, he was frightened so much that his face turned pale, and he stepped back involuntarily.

Even the dog he was holding seemed to sense the danger and hid with its tail between its legs.

The man and the dog retreated dejectedly into the corner.

Seeing that Lin Yaoming had wisely escaped, Qin Yan withdrew his gaze coldly.

Lin Wanshu had no idea what Lin Jiemin and Li Xiuzhi were up to.

I planned to finish my meal quickly and go back early.

Anyway, she had just walked around the village in a swagger, and now everyone knew that she had returned to her parents' home, so she was not afraid of being gossiped about anymore.

Thinking of this, she took the two bags from Qin Yan's hands and handed them to Lin Jiemin.

"These are some specialties I brought back from Yun Province. I tried a new way to make this bacon, so I brought it back specially for you to taste."

When Li Xiuzhi saw the bacon, her eyes suddenly lit up.

I feel like killing a chicken isn’t that painful anymore.

"Hehehe... Wanshu, you are sensible and filial. You know how to bring meat back to honor your father."

As she spoke, she reached out and took the bag and the meat.

She actually didn't have high expectations for what was in the bag.

After all, nothing in the packages she sent back the last few times was usable.

They are all good-looking but useless things.

Even if you exchange it for money, you won't be able to get more than a few cents.

You can steam bacon, which is something real and visible.

It's not those empty talk.

Lin Wanshu didn't say anything and let her take the bag.

Lin Jiemin looked at the large piece of bacon and felt uncomfortable.

His lips moved, but he hesitated to speak.

But after meeting Li Xiuzhi's warning gaze, he swallowed the words on the tip of his tongue.

After receiving a large piece of bacon, Li Xiuzhi's smile became more sincere.

There was a brazier in the kitchen, and she quickly invited Lin Wanshu and his wife to come in and warm themselves by the fire.

"The chicken is already in the pot and will be ready soon. Please wait here for a while."

Li Xiuzhi continued to greet them warmly.

Lin Jiemin also sat next to the brazier, but he remained silent and didn't even fart for a long time.

Lin Jiaxue glanced at Qin Yan from time to time, with a myriad of thoughts in her eyes.

Little Miaomiao could not feel the undercurrents of the adults, and when she came to a strange environment, she was still full of curiosity about everything.

But after watching for a while, she lost interest in it.

Instead, he became curious about Lin Jiaxue who was standing next to him.

"Mom, are your eyes uncomfortable?"

As Xiao Miaomiao spoke, she imitated Lin Jiaxue and glanced to the side from time to time.

That lively little appearance almost made Lin Wanshu laugh.

"Maybe Auntie didn't get enough rest and her eyes got cramps."

Lin Wanshu glanced at Lin Jiaxue and smiled faintly.

Lin Jiaxue's face turned red with embarrassment as if her thoughts were exposed.

She withdrew her gaze in embarrassment. How could she dare to look around again?

Fortunately, the dish was finally ready after a short while.

Li Xiuzhi brought a large pot of chicken and potatoes to the table.

There were also fried eggs, tofu, fish on the table... It looked very rich. Even during the Chinese New Year, there might not be so many dishes.

Lin Wanshu looked at Li Xiuzhi who was busy all the time, and her heart became more and more suspicious.

What exactly are Lin Jiemin and Li Xiuzhi keeping in suspense?

Why do they look weirder than each other?

After the meal was ready, Lin Yaoming and Lin Jiatong also came in.

No one knew where the big black dog that Lin Yaoming was leading just now had gone.

The rebellious look on his face disappeared, replaced by fear and shrinkage.

Lin Jiatong was originally a timid person, and now that she saw her cold-faced brother-in-law, she was even more scared. She didn't dare to get close to him and just hid in the corner.

Three of the four children born to Li Xiuzhi have arrived, but Lin Yaocheng is the only one missing.

Lin Wanshu blinked and asked in surprise.

"Where is Lin Yaocheng?"

Hearing this, Li Xiuzhi froze for a moment, then she said nonchalantly, "Maybe he was delayed by something. Let's not wait for him, let's eat first."

Lin Wanshu found it a little strange. For such a big thing as killing a chicken, Li Xiuzhi was reluctant to call her precious son back to eat?

But she didn't ask any further questions. She just sat down and prepared to eat.

There were seven or eight people sitting around the table, but the atmosphere was surprisingly weird.

Only Li Xiuzhi greeted Lin Wanshu and Qin Yan warmly.

The others barely spoke.

Even Lin Wanshu and Qin Yan, who were being greeted, only responded indifferently.

Probably the only person who was not affected in the whole audience was Miaomiao.

Li Xiuzhi gave her a big chicken leg and she started to eat it.

Lin Jiatong was so greedy that she was drooling.

When a chicken is slaughtered at home, the chicken legs are either Lin Yaocheng's or Lin Yaoming's.

Although Lin Jiatong was also born from Li Xiuzhi's belly, she was obviously not favored.

Even Lin Jiaxue can't compare to her.

From childhood to adulthood, she had never eaten a chicken leg and could only look at Miaomiao with envy.

Li Xiuzhi had just poured wine for Lin Wanshu, Qin Yan, and Lin Jiaxue.

When they met, none of them drank, so they winked at Lin Jiemin.

There was a hint of embarrassment in Lin Jiemin's eyes, but after hesitating for a moment, he still picked up the wine glass.

"Wan... Wan Shu, Qin Yan, Dad will offer you a toast and wish you further success in your career."

This was said in a very proper way, but Lin Jiemin's eyes flickered.

Lin Wanshu became more and more confused.

She lowered her eyes to look at the wine in the glass, hesitated for a moment, and then picked it up.

But just as he put it to his lips, he heard Qiqi screaming, "No! You can't drink this wine!"
