Transmigrated into a Farmhouse: The Stepmother Spoils Her Child to the Heavens
Chapter 46 So what?
The two pastries Lin Cai made were crystal cakes, but they were a little different from real crystal cakes.
What she makes is not only crystal clear, but also available in various colors, and it won't crumble into pieces even when taken apart.
If you want to divide it, you only need a single hair to cut a piece of pastry into many small pieces, and they will all remain intact.
It tastes like jelly, and can be made in various flavors, even filled with molten filling or other fillings.
Because they all wanted them, Lin Cai prepared more than 100 pieces when Gu Dachui went to sell pastries the next day.
Lin Bao did not go with them this time because something happened at the Lin family last night.
At this moment, the Lin family's main gate was pried open, and the inner doors were not spared either. Even the tofu inside was all knocked to the ground.
"Oh dear, what a terrible thing! Who was this heartless bastard who couldn't let people live? How could he have the heart to ruin such a small thing that could be sold for money!"
Lin's mother sat on the doorstep, slapping her thigh and cursing. She didn't know who had entered her house.
All she knew was that when she woke up in the morning, she saw the white tofu on the ground, all broken into crumbs and covered in dust, and her mind went completely blank.
Upon hearing this, Lin Bao immediately returned to the Lin family home, only to find his mother sitting on the doorstep, weeping bitterly.
He walked over and kicked the door shut: "What are you doing? You thieves have come to my house, haven't you? You think you can just run away because I'm not home?"
The Lin family now has many members, but most of them are just there to watch the spectacle. Mr. Lin's father is smoking opium on the side, and his mother is crying on the side.
The village chief also arrived. He tried to persuade them to stop crying, but they wouldn't listen at all. Plus, the onlookers were fanning the flames, which made him even angrier.
"Oh, Lin family, what did I tell you? I saw that you had some nice things, so I thought I'd have you show them to everyone."
"But you all insisted on hiding it, and now look what happened! You have nothing left, and all your efforts were in vain!"
"Isn't it all for nothing? Look at that pile of white tofu on the floor, how much is that worth? It's such a waste!"
Among those speaking were Li Dazui and others, including Li Guixiang. When they saw the white tofu, their faces showed regret, but their hearts were filled with schadenfreude.
Lin Bao walked around the room, glanced at the tofu on the ground, and then saw the footprints of tofu dregs.
He went outside and looked at the village chief: "Our house was robbed, and we lost so much tofu, which was meant to be sold for money. It's like we lost a lot of money."
"Report it to the authorities, village chief. I don't care who it was last night, and I don't want to know who it was. I'll have someone report it to the authorities right now. After they arrest the person, I want him to know that some people's homes are off-limits."
The village chief was extremely unwilling to report the matter to the authorities, but he had no say in the matter.
They could only find Lin's father, who was addicted to opium: "Old Lin, what are you going to do about this? Your family insists on reporting it to the authorities. Do you agree with reporting it to the authorities?"
"I agree, of course I agree. I've been working myself to the bone, making so much tofu, and those heartless bastards ruined it all. I can't quell my anger without arresting them and giving them a good beating."
“Old Lin, I know, but you also know that our Gu Family Village has never reported to the authorities before. If we go straight to the authorities for something as small as this, what will people think?”
“As the village chief, my term is coming to an end in two years. I could just wash my hands of it, but I still live here, my roots are still here, and I have to think about the whole Gujia Village!”
"You've been here since you fled, and you've been here for decades. What were you like when you first arrived? And what are you like now? I don't need to tell you that, do I?"
"I have no other requests. I just hope that while I'm still alive, I can remain the village chief. I hope that under my leadership, Gujia Village can..."
"So the village chief means that our Lin family should suffer this loss, and that my parents should keep quiet and have worked for nothing?"
Lin Hu's loud voice came from outside. The people who had surrounded the courtyard immediately made way when they heard the voice, and they saw that it was Lin Hu who appeared.
Everyone pushed to the side, keeping a safe distance, afraid of getting close to Lin Hu.
"Does the village chief mean what I just said?"
“My Lin family’s house was robbed, and our belongings were smashed. As the victims, are we supposed to just swallow our anger and not pursue the matter?”
"Just for this wretched place, for these ungrateful people, you're going to make my parents swallow their anger?"
The barrage of questions left the village chief speechless. He wanted to retort, but they had hit the nail on the head.
Lin Hu looked at his father, went over and helped his mother up, then glared at Lin Bao before looking at the people in the courtyard.
“Our house was robbed today, and the house was destroyed. The village chief told us to pretend that nothing happened.”
“That’s fine, that’s not impossible, but if their house is robbed again next time, and something is missing or gone, I hope the village chief can repeat what we said today to them.”
"And also, fellow villagers, look carefully at what's inside, remember it well, and when you go back, ask your men and sons if it has anything to do with them."
"If there isn't one, then let me say nothing. If there is one, I hope he will come to me on his own initiative. If I find him, I can't guarantee what will happen."
Those who heard this were startled; the anger and fear on their faces made them tremble uncontrollably.
They are now praying that it has nothing to do with their family, because Lin Hu is even more terrifying than the third son of the Lin family.
The village chief was also startled. He looked at Lin Hu in shock: "Lin Hu, how could you say that? You're just..."
"Yes, I am threatening them, I am intimidating them, so what?"
He's done it, he's said it, he's admitted it, but so what? Who can do anything to him?
When Lin Cai arrived, she heard this domineering statement, her lips twitched, and she walked in from outside.
Seeing Lin Hu, who had been so obsequious to her last time, standing in the middle of the doorway still spouting threats.
After she went inside, everyone saw her. When the village chief saw her, it was as if he had seen his savior.
