Lin Yishi was worried here, and others were also puzzled, especially the couple who lived in rented houses.

Mrs. Lin was so angry that her chest hurt, "Is the third child afraid of eating a bear-hearted leopard? To dare to speak to us like that, it's really a conscience. If I knew earlier, I shouldn't have given birth to him."

The old man Lin was just as angry, but he didn't keep his harsh words on his lips. The third child was the one he disliked the most. As for the source, he couldn't tell.

But the only thing he knew was that there must be a third child in this family, and a third child who was willing to work and earn money. Only in this way would their family have a better life.

"Let's see first, don't push him too hard." Old Man Lin said, afraid that the third child would not be happy to push him too hard, "You are his mother, talk to him tomorrow, and don't scold people. "

Mrs. Lin replied angrily, which was considered an agreement, but thinking of what he said in the main room just now, she was a little shaken, "Dad, do you think Shige'er can pass the exam?"

Mr. Lin sighed, "It's difficult."

Even if they can, I don't know how long it will take.

At that time, they were not there, even if they didn't know it in the exam, they always felt a little bored.

"Then why don't we let the two children of the second family go?" Mrs. Lin asked. They are grandsons anyway. Although he likes the eldest grandson a little bit, but the eldest grandson has taken the exam for so many years and there is no good news at all, it is better to change On grandson. "The second child is more clever than his two brothers, and maybe his two sons can do the same. Besides, the third child is obviously dissatisfied with Shige'er, and he is not willing to provide for Shige'er, so he may be replaced by the second son. Are you willing?"

Mr. Lin actually had this idea in his heart. He was silent for a while before he said, "Don't be in a hurry, and then check the third child's tone."

The old couple chatted for a long time before falling asleep.

When she woke up in the morning, Mrs. Lin thought about how to tell the third child later. The third child did a good job, but his brain was really not enough, so she could say a few words of comfort and reassurance to ensure that she would give up on them.

At this time, the third child should go to work in the town. She has to figure out what to say, and wait for the third child to come back and have a good talk.

The old lady Lin, who had just walked out of the main house, found that there was no one in the kitchen, and immediately got angry: "Da Ya! Da Ya! What are you girls doing? When can't you turn on the fire for breakfast? What do you feed you! "

The high-pitched and loud voice awakened the people living in the Lin family. Mrs. Huang put on her clothes and walked out of the room, gloating over her misfortune: "Mother, those three girls are lazy, and they should be taught a lesson."

Madam Lin was so angry that she forgot the task of talking to the third child, so she wanted to bring the three girls out to work.

The Lin family's house is not good in the village. They are all brick houses, but they are big enough. There are so many people in the family. The two elders and the eldest family live in the main house.

Lin Laosan lived in the Westinghouse. There was a door in the Westhouse, and there were two small rooms inside. The smaller one was for Lin Laosan alone, and the older one was for his three girls.

When Mrs. Lin raised her arm and was about to knock on the door, Lin Qi opened it first, and he said sleepily, "Mother, why are you early? What's your name?"

Mrs. Lin looked surprised, "Why are you at home?"

Shouldn't it be time to go to work in the town?

Lin Qi yawned, "I sent someone a letter to the town yesterday, I'm not going."

"Don't go?!"

The Huang family, who was originally schadenfreude, couldn't wait. She quickly stepped forward and said, "How can you not go? Who will make money if you don't go?"

Lin Qi frowned, "Sister-in-law, what you said is wrong. With so many people in the family, how can you let me earn money alone?"

Huang Shi was choked, she reluctantly said: "But your wood work is good, your elder brother has no skills, and he can't find work in the town."

"How can I not find it? Well, if Big Brother is willing, I'll go find him a job, and I'm sure it won't be less than my salary." Lin Qi patted his chest and assured, "However, it will be a bit tiring."

"I'm not going!" Lin Dahu didn't want to show up, but seeing that the fire was about to burn him, he had to go out of the house and shout.

Lin Qi spread his hands, "Big brother doesn't want to work, and I won't go either."

"How can that be possible!"

"How can it be the same?!"

The two mothers-in-law spoke at the same time.

Lin Qi tilted his head and said stubbornly, "My eldest brother is my mother's son, but I am not? Why can't my eldest brother stay at home?"

"Yes! Why can't you." Hearing the lively Lin Dahe also come out, he said with a hilarious smile: "Of course, not only the eldest brother, but your second brother, I am not staying at home and not working."

"Lin Dahe, don't talk nonsense!" Mrs. Lin was furious.

Lin Dahe leaned against the door frame, "Mother, why is my son talking nonsense? Big brother sleeps until the sun rises three poles every day without seeing you say anything. He quits all household chores, and has given birth to a son who knows how to spend money. Why don't you see you scolding. scold him?"

Inside and outside the words, it was full of sarcasm.

In fact, in the early years, Lin Dahe was also the only obedient son in the family, but...

Lin Dahe shouted loudly, "Third brother, you can take a rest. You have to make up your mind not to move. I don't believe that someone can force you to move."

Mrs. Lin was so angry that she could barely speak.

Lin Qi's shoulders slumped, he frowned and said, "Mother, it's not that I don't want to move, but I've been tired for so many years, and my body can't take it anymore. I can't even stand still now."

After he finished speaking, his knees were bent, indicating that he was really unsteady.

Of course, as for whether these people believe it or not, what does it have to do with him?

Just after turning around and planning to go in to take a rest, Lin Qi turned his head again and said, "By the way, I'm not feeling well, the children have to serve me for me, and my mother and sister-in-law will be troubled by the work at home."

As soon as the words fell, they closed the door without waiting for the two to return to their senses.

The opposite Lin Dahe looked particularly relieved, he opened his mouth and laughed a few times, then raised his voice: "My child, I'm not feeling well today, you have to take good care of me, but you can't be called to do that. Can't get a good change."

Following the example of the third brother, he brought the door to the house as soon as he finished speaking.

"Mother, what should I do now? Third brother is too much..."

"Shut up!" Mrs. Lin yelled.

While angry, he felt a little dazed and uneasy, and there was always a sense of panic that he couldn't handle.

In the house, Lin Qi faced three frightened girls, who were the original three girls.

Yuan Shi's wife died not long after giving birth to the third girl, and Yuan Shi often didn't stay at home, so she didn't know how difficult it was for the three little girls to live in the Lin family.

The eldest girl has just turned her head, the second girl is about thirteen years old, and the third girl is even younger. At this time, she is hiding behind her two sisters. She is obviously afraid but curiously sticking her head out to look at him.

"Dad, why don't I cook instead?" Daya was a little scared. She and her two younger sisters had always been working at home, cooking, washing, cleaning, feeding pigs and chickens, etc. Every day Busy from morning to evening.

In the night, I can't stop changing, and in exchange, I make money to make money for my cousin to go to school.

Tired must be tired, but even his own father doesn't feel bad for them, so how can other people feel bad.

This time, Dad suddenly changed. Da Ya was different from her two younger sisters. She didn't think she would change.

She especially remembered that a few years ago, the second uncle could not see it. She was frightened and scared because of the big fight between the three sisters and grandparents, and she hoped to get rid of it.

But Da Ya still can't forget it. When Daddy came back that night, not only did he not help them, but instead he scolded them.

'Isn't the girl's house supposed to do the work at home, what's the tiring of cooking and washing clothes? They are squeamish. ' These words came out of Daddy's mouth, and it was from that time that he began to accept his fate.

Father and mother gave her sister this life, so recognize it, even if she died of exhaustion, it was just a repayment for this life.

Daya took a deep breath, and she said plainly, "Dad, let's go out, or grandma will scold people."

Lin Qi didn't care, "Which day did they scold anyone?"

"..." Da Ya didn't have anything to say to answer this, grandfather and grandma Changzhen scolded people at home every day.

However, they never scolded their uncles, aunts and cousins, and they scolded almost all of their three sisters.

"It's early now, you can go back to the room and sleep again." Lin Qi said, nudged the three girls back to the back room to sleep, and when they entered the back room, he also lay on the bed and began to plan.

The background of this era is a bit troublesome, and it is impossible for him to leave the Lin family easily, otherwise he will be detained with a reputation for being unfilial.

Even if the father is not kind, it is wrong to be a child. To put it bluntly, regardless of the reason, as long as it is not filial, it is a heinous crime.

So, how to get rid of the Lin family, and these people are vicious enough, just getting rid of it is really not enough to relieve anger.

At this time, there were scolding sounds from outside the house, and even knocking on the door. Lin Qi ignored them and let them knock on the door, and slowly fell asleep.

Just woke up, refreshed.

Lin Qi didn't say anything before. After he took over the body of the original body, he really felt very tired. He got up before dawn, walked to the town for more than an hour, and waited for the time to work without rest. The worker had to walk for more than an hour to return to the village. It was already nighttime by this time, and he had to get up early after falling asleep.

In this way, day after day, year after year, the iron body can't bear it.

This time, Lin Qi was the most comfortable sleep in his body in years.

I don't know whether the girls in the back room slept or not. When he got up, Da Ya walked out with two younger sisters.

Lin Qi said, "I'm hungry, I'll get you something to eat."

Daya was suspicious. She didn't believe that her father had the ability to get food from Grandma's hands. Grandma knew best what was in the kitchen. The grain, oil, salt, firewood, and rice were even locked in the cabinet, and they didn't pass through her. Can't get it at all.

Lin Qi didn't explain too much, he shouted as soon as he went out, "Mother, open the cabinet where you put the food, I'll make something to eat."

When Mrs. Lin heard this, she said angrily, "What to eat, what to eat!"

Lin Qi was not angry, but just replied, "I don't have anything to eat at home? How can I do it? Why don't I go to the village chief's house to borrow some, and then exchange it back when I have money."

Before he finished speaking, Mr. Lin, who had never appeared, walked out with a livid face, "How dare you!"

Lin Qi felt very innocent, "Father, there is nothing to eat at home, so don't worry about your face anymore, it's the most important thing to be full."

That's right, this old man Lin's temperament is to take face seriously.

Otherwise, I wouldn't be so hopeful that a scholar who has passed the exam will make a change in the family.

Let others know that their family is so poor that they don't even have food. Wouldn't it be a big loss of face, and he must not let this happen.

Lin Qi went on to say, "The harvest is about to happen. Can't you change it after the harvest is over?"

"Shut up for me!" Old Man Lin said angrily. He was panting heavily and had to shout, "Old lady, hurry up and come out with the key!"

The head of the house all opened their mouths. Even if Mrs. Lin was unwilling, she could only walk out with the key. While opening the cabinet of the stove, she scolded, "Eat, eat, eat, you can eat to death."

Lin Qi looked sad when she saw the things in the cabinet, "Mother, there is something to eat, why did you lie to me instead? Am I not your own son? How could you treat me like this?"

Lin Qi's sudden grievance made Mrs. Lin a little stunned. When she wanted to come, she opened the cabinet and allowed him to take the food.

Lin Qihuan really dared.

As if he had been hit by a huge blow, he actually cried while talking.

This is more than a change. While talking, he walked towards the door, attracting the surrounding villagers.

"Father, mother, I've earned a lot of money for my family over the years, right? I go out early and come home late every day in order to earn money for my family. I've been working so hard that I haven't eaten any good food, and the clothes I wear are the best in the family. The old one, even the three girls kept the house clean, and now I'm just tired and want to rest for a day or two, but you don't even give me anything to stutter?"

As he spoke, he sat down on the ground, and regardless of the growing number of people gathered around him, he slammed his fist on the ground, "I killed the chicken for Brother Shi yesterday, and the previous one ate meat, why? When I came to my place, I didn't even have to eat a single bun? What did I do so much for? I spent six or seven taels of silver on my brother Shi, but I didn't even give me a stutter. For what?"

He raised his head and sighed, how miserable and miserable it was.

The surrounding villagers were also talking about it.

"How could the Lin family do this? If they hadn't been forced by Lin San to force them to live so well?"

"If you want me to say, then Lin Yishi is not a good thing. His third uncle has worked so hard to provide for him, but he is good. He either eats chicken or meat, and he doesn't feel bad for his third uncle."

"It's not his biological father, how can he work so hard?"

"The Lin family is really not a thing. You're driving Lin San to the point of madness."

"Isn't that right? I go out so early every day and come back so late. Now it's just a day's rest. I just listen to Mrs. Lin's constant scolding. I don't know what Lin San has done."

One after another, Mr. Lin felt cold all over, especially seeing the mocking eyes of so many people, his face flushed red and his body was shaking.

"Quick, quickly pull him back!"

Called people, but no one dared to go out.

After all, everyone needs a face.

Especially Lin Yishi, he can't wait to go back to town immediately, it's just too embarrassing to be here.

Lin Dahe was not afraid of losing face, but he felt that the matter was not a big deal, and went out with a smile on his face, adding fuel to the fire: "Third brother, it's useless for you to yell, who told you that you can only earn money and not study? If you can read, it doesn't matter if you fail the exam three times in a row, our parents will treat you as a baby in exchange."

After he finished speaking, he smiled sarcastically, "If you don't believe me, look at eldest brother's eldest brother, who has been in school for so many years, and his grades in three or four exams have been worse every time, but so what? Bao, I'm in my twenties, I haven't done any work in the fields once, and I've never interfered in family affairs. Every time I come back from town, my parents either kill chickens or cut meat.

"Lin Dahe, please shut up my mother!" Mrs. Lin was so angry that she didn't care whether she would lose face. It would be even more shameful to let this unremembered talk go on.

He rushed out with big strides, and just wanted to grab Lin Dahe's ear and drag him back, but he didn't want Lin Dahe to flicker flexibly and ran into the crowd.

As he ran, he said, "Why should I shut up? Am I telling the truth? It's rare for your precious grandson to come back from town once, so he asks for money. If he knows, he is the landlord and young master of our village."

"hiss!"

There was a sound of gasping in the crowd.

Three taels of silver, this is almost a harvest of one or two years.

"Is it so expensive to go to a school? The elder brother of the Lin family has been studying in the town for so many years. How much money does it cost?"

"Look at Lin San and you'll know. It's obviously bigger than Lin, but he's older than Lin Dahuan."

"My father refuses to confess, and only **** the blood of my uncle. This kind of person is too embarrassed to read the book of sages?"

"No, my nephew is also studying in a school. I have never heard of such a fee."

"Who knows what he wants the money for? Maybe he will spend it elsewhere."

"No, just call the village chief, don't let the Lin family drive Lin San crazy, then can our village change its head in front of other villagers?"

Seeing that the situation was getting worse and worse, Mr. Lin couldn't hide even if he wanted to, so he could only bite the bullet and go out.

Just wanted to say it was a misunderstanding, but suddenly saw the third child sitting on the ground crying suddenly got up.

Lin Qi stood up, his hands clenched, as if he had made up his mind, "Second brother is right, my parents like Shige'er because he went to a school and became a scholar."

The scene was suddenly quiet, quietly waiting for Lin San's next sentence.

"So I decided, I don't want to study for Shige, I will study by myself!"

"..."

"..."

"..."

Suddenly, someone asked in a very low voice, "If I remember correctly, Lin San is in his thirties, right?"

"No, you remember correctly."

so? ! Are people of this age going to read and read? After a few years, Lin San will be the age to be a grandfather.

"You're not crazy, the third child?!" Mr. Lin didn't choose to say anything.

Lin Qi looked at him and said seriously: "Dad, don't worry, I will definitely study hard."

Said, a pair of eyes looked at the person opposite, as if to say, I must study hard, and strive to be the baby bump of you and my mother!

The people around also understood this meaning, and they were speechless, but they had to sigh, "Lin Sanke is really filial."

"Isn't it true, in order to let the old couple of the Lin family have a high-level look, they thought of going to a school when they were over thirty."

"He... won't really go, will he?"

This is not only the doubts of the villagers, but also the doubts of the Lin family. The third child of the Lin family doesn't really want to go to the school, right? Many people in the Lin family were worried, for fear that he really decided not to serve his brother.

And Lin Qi, who was watching the fun outside, wanted to go, although it was not his own family, but seeing the third child of the Lin family working so hard, it was better for himself to be exchanged for others.

In the end, the village chief came to drive away the people who joined in the fun, and then went to the main room with the Lin family.

Koushan Village is a small village. Almost all the people in the village have the same surname, and they are more or less related.

According to his ancestors, Mr. Lin changed his name to call the village chief uncle.

It is the village chief and the old uncle again, and when he talks, it is inevitable that he has no confidence.

"Uncle, please make a trip yourself." Mr. Lin looked respectful. He turned his head and shouted, "Why don't you hurry up and pour a cup of tea for Uncle."

Village Chief Lin waved his hand and said, "Don't, I won't waste anything as precious as tea, leave it to your precious family."

Obviously, on the way here, I have already understood what happened.

Mr. Lin's face turned red, "Uncle, please don't humiliate me."

Village Chief Lin put both hands on the crutches, he said: "Lin Han, I really don't want to humiliate you as an old uncle, but don't drag down our Koushan Village, you don't tell me about your family's situation, I don't ask, but It doesn't mean I don't know."

Originally, even though he was the village chief, he was not good at taking care of other people's housework. If they could handle it well, he would turn a blind eye, so as not to be a villain and meddle in his own business.

But now it's different. Lin San is making a fuss, and the whole village is watching jokes. If it's outside, it's even watching the whole village's jokes.

He said solemnly: "Lin San didn't say it if he was willing, but since he doesn't want to, don't force him."

Mr. Lin remained silent.

Lin Yishi felt bad when he heard it. If the third uncle didn't give him up, how could he continue to stay in the town, especially when he saw Grandpa's hesitation, he hurriedly said: "Grandpa!"

Village Chief Lin glanced at him and snorted loudly: "Brother Shi, you have to know that a scholar has a good reputation. If you forced Lin San to study for you, have you ever thought about what would happen to you?"

Lin Yishi's face stiffened, of course he thought about it, so he thought of letting his grandfather and grandma use the name of filial piety to persecute the third uncle.

Village Chief Lin ignored him. Although there were many people in the village, there were quite a few scholars who changed. Lin Yishi was the least intelligent one. He never thought that Lin Yishi could pass the exam, so naturally he would not care about it. a child.

Instead of looking at Lin Yishi, he continued, "You guys are also shallow-eyed. Since you get the benefits, why don't you repay it, and it won't make Lin San feel so chilled."

If he had a son who could make money like this, he wouldn't show it even if he didn't like it, and it would even be better to change it, so that he wouldn't push people into a hurry.

Especially Lin Yishi, he clearly knew that Lin San was offering him, and he also knew why Lin San wanted to offer him.

It's nothing more than that I don't have a son under my body, and I want to have someone who will be able to retire in the future.

Lin Yishi was good, he didn't know how to say good things or pretend to be filial. When he came back, he only asked for money, so that Lin San could see that he was not someone he could rely on, and he would be willing to earn more money to pay for it.

In general, in the Lin family, except for the eldest Lin Dahe, who is a sensible person, everyone else is stupid, including Lin Qi.

After more than 30 years of hard work, I have only woken up until now. Is it not stupid.

Village Chief Lin wanted to think about it, but didn't show it. He suggested, "I listened to what Lin San said. I don't want to serve Brother Shi anymore. Your family is not just such a child, why don't you change it?"

"Village Chief, this is our family business!" Huang hurriedly said, why did he change? She is only a son like Shige'er, why should she leave such a good thing to others?

Village Chief Lin sneered, "Why, now it's your turn to be a woman in charge of the house?"

Mr. Lin said with a stern face, "Huang Shi, you have no right to speak."

"Father, I'm not..." As soon as Mrs. Huang opened her mouth, Lin Dahu stopped him, and said with a flattering smile: "Village Chief, the child's temperament is impatient, don't take it to heart, this is not what our world brother said. If he thinks that he will pass the test next time, he will let him try for another year."

Village Chief Lin had a mocking smile on his face: "That's interesting, why didn't I hear the kids talk about it?"

There are several households in the village who are all studying in a school, including the grandson of the village chief.

Although Village Chief Lin didn't say it directly, anyone could see the mocking look on his face.

In other words, his grandson is much smarter than Lin Yishi next time, so why didn't the master say this to his grandson?

Lin Dahu winked and asked Lin Yishi to speak. Perhaps Lin Yishi knew that the lies he made up could only confuse his family, and he did not dare to speak with his head down.

Mr. Lin saw it, his face was even greener, he thought about it for a while, and finally made up his mind, "Uncle, what you said earlier is right, since the third child is not happy, naturally I, the father, will not. Forcing him, if he doesn't want to give to Shige'er, he won't give it up, the second brother's Min-ge'er is not bad, so I will send him to the school."

"no!"

There were several voices in the house.

Three of them are from the Lin Dahu family, and the other is Lin Dahe.

Mr. Lin didn't want to worry about Shige'er any more, he frowned at his second son, and said dissatisfiedly: "Why, if you want to send Minge'er, then send his younger brother, although he is younger, he is also in Kaimeng. age."

"I'm not happy with both sons."

Lin Dahe refused: "I am a father who knows only that, even if they are working hard, it is impossible for them to be admitted as a scholar, so why waste that money."

Besides, he is not the heartless person of the boss, who squeezed his younger brother to raise a son for himself, and he couldn't do such a sinful thing.

Lin Qi also spoke at this time, "Dad, you don't need to say more, I don't confess to anyone, I will confess to myself!"

It's a pride to say that, I can't wait to say directly, in order to be a 'baby bump' for his parents, isn't it just reading and literacy, he is willing to do it even in his thirties!

"..."

The room was silent again, all choked to the point of speechlessness.

In the end, it was Lin Dahe who couldn't help laughing out loud. Seeing the dark faces of his father, mother and eldest brother's family was simply too happy.

The only pity is that the third child is a fool.

In order to be a baby bump for his parents, he actually made such a mess. I went to my eldest brother, where only because of reading and literacy.

"Why are you crazy, you don't even look at how old you are, and you go to a school instead?" If it wasn't for the old uncle, Mr. Lin would have liked to get started directly.

Lin Qi pretended to be looking forward to it, "Don't worry, Dad, give me a few more years, and I promise to give you a talent test and come back!"

It's just that before this one, the money for studying in the school and the money for taking the exam have to be given to him, if not?

I'm sorry, in order to be the 'baby bump' of the parents, even if he went crazy, he would have to get the money. If he didn't give it to him, he would make trouble.
