Transmigrated into a Farmhouse: The Stepmother Spoils Her Child to the Heavens
Chapter 80 Always Wishful Thinking
If the tofu they make doesn't taste good, then no one will buy it. If no one buys it, they won't be able to sell their tofu. If they can't sell it, they won't earn back the money they spent on the soybeans. Plus, with their labor costs, they'll be working for nothing.
After this calculation, Mr. and Mrs. Lin immediately picked out all the beans, soaked them thoroughly to make sure there were no problems, and then used them to make tofu.
Lin's mother sat at the doorway, carefully picking out rotten beans by the light from outside, while Lin Bao sat in the yard, holding a basin of beans and picking them out as well.
When Lin Cai arrived, he was the first to hear her footsteps. He initially thought it was someone else, but when he saw it was Lin Cai, his eyes lit up.
"Little sister, little sister, what brings you here? Did you come to see me? Is there something you need? Don't worry, I'm fine right now, I can come with you right away."
He put the beans off his leg and stood up, ready to follow, but Lin Cai walked right past him and stood in front of Lin's mother.
"Mom, I'm going to cook something delicious tonight. Would you and Dad like to come eat with me?"
She originally wanted to bring the things here, but there were too many people in the Gu family, and there was also a scar, so it wouldn't be appropriate to bring them here.
Lin's mother was very happy to see her daughter return, but when she heard that her daughter had invited them to dinner, Lin's mother frowned.
"You've only been in business for a few days? How much money would it cost to treat us to a meal? We have food at home, so we'll eat at home. We don't need to go to your place."
"Mom, it didn't cost any money, it didn't cost any money. At most, we cooked a little extra mixed grain rice. Someone brought some meat with them, and we can't finish it all, so please come with Dad!"
Upon hearing that it was about eating meat, Lin's mother frowned even more deeply.
"Since it's meat, why not eat it in portions? If you finish it all at once, what will you eat for the next meal?"
"It's winter now, not summer. If we really can't finish it, we can just freeze it by the well, right?"
Hearing this, Lin Cai felt a headache coming on; she felt she couldn't reason with this old lady.
All she wanted was for her parents to come over for a meal of meat, so why did this old lady have so many excuses to refuse?
Lin Bao, who was standing nearby, couldn't stand it anymore. He moved closer and said, "My dear mother, all your little sister wants is for you and Dad to have a nice meal. It's not a big deal. Why are you making such a fuss?"
He had barely finished speaking when his mother showered him with maternal love: "It's nothing, it's nothing, you call this nothing?"
"Don't you even consider what time it is when you speak? There's nothing to eat, whether on the mountain or in the fields. Wouldn't it be better to eat a little bit of meat today and a little bit tomorrow?"
"You insist on finishing it all in one meal, otherwise you'll be left with nothing but the northwest wind. Do you want your sister to starve to death?"
Lin Bao was being beaten by his own mother and was howling in pain. He was truly wronged!
When did he ever want to starve his own sister to death?
Besides, with him around, how could his sister possibly starve to death?
Seeing her third brother being beaten, Lin Cai stood by without offering any help. Only when her mother got tired and stopped hitting him did Lin Cai pull her mother away.
"Mother, don't worry, that won't happen."
"Even if I ever run out of food, Third Brother will definitely not let me go hungry, right, Third Brother?"
Lin Bao, who hadn't recovered yet, was suddenly called out by his sister. He turned around, hissed, and then nodded: "Yes, yes, that's right. With me here, you definitely won't go hungry."
Seeing her son dote on his younger sister, Lin's mother was naturally happy. They only had one girl in the Lin family, so of course they had to spoil her, and the whole family would spoil her.
However, Lin's mother was still a little hesitant about going to her daughter's house for meat. Lin's father came out of the house with a lit pipe in his hand.
"I'm asking you to eat meat, not to cut it, so why are you hesitating?"
“It was your daughter who told you to go eat, not to steal from someone else. If you, old woman, don’t go, I’ll go by myself.”
He heard everything that was said inside. Actually, he thought the same thing as Lin's mother, but this was the first time his daughter had invited him to dinner, so he couldn't refuse.
Hearing her husband's words, Lin's mother was stunned for a moment. After realizing what he meant, she almost threw the beans off her leg at that stinky old man.
It seems the old man heard everything inside, and when he came out, he hit himself with a hammer, as if he didn't know what was good for him.
He did the good deed but ended up as a bad guy himself. What a lousy old man.
Lin Cai treated her parents to meat, and in the short time it takes for an incense stick to burn, the news somehow reached the Gu family.
When Li Guixiang heard that the Gu family was having meat to eat today and had even invited those two old geezers from the Lin family, she immediately became envious.
They haven't eaten meat in so long, you can't even count on your fingers. Everyone in the family is craving meat now.
"Oh, sister-in-law, what business is it of ours if they eat meat? We're not their parents. Even if they have meat to eat, it's not our turn!"
"Pah! That's the third brother's house, and also the Gu family's house. I'm the eldest sister-in-law of the Gu family. The third brother also has an older brother. As his older brother and sister-in-law, shouldn't you come and invite us to eat meat?"
When Li Guixiang said this, she was quite self-righteous, as if Lin Cai really should come and invite her over for a meal.
Upon hearing Li Guixiang's words, Zhao Laidi burst into laughter: "Hahaha, sister-in-law, I think you're just craving meat!"
"Gu Laosan, Gu Tieniu, died a long time ago. He died several years ago. Now, apart from the children he left behind, the head of the Gu family is that widow."
"That widow is very shrewish, and she has three brothers who are good-for-nothings. Do you think she would treat you as her sister-in-law?"
After Zhao Laidi finished speaking, she laughed again. Some people are just delusional and all they do is daydream.
But every time he went to carry out the mission, he came back with nothing but anger and no good results.
Zhao Laidi decided not to get involved anymore. After she finished talking and laughing, she left, which made Li Guixiang so angry that she almost tore her clothes to shreds.
The news of the Gu family eating meat not only reached the Gu family but also the Hua family.
When Hua Guo heard that the Gu family was having meat to eat today, he naturally wanted some too. Li Da Zui had always indulged his son's wishes.
She looked at Huaguo and said, "Okay, okay, let's eat meat. We'll go to the Gu family in a bit and then we'll eat meat."
