Do you have any objections to Chapter 208?
He thought he would be free once it got dark, but to his surprise, his younger sister still wouldn't let him go. Not only did she not let him go, she also went to the Lin family.
Lin's mother was quite happy to see her daughter and son come back together, and quickly invited her daughter to sit down and have dinner.
She only glanced at her son twice before ignoring him completely.
Lin's mother pulled Lin Cai: "Cai Cai, why did you come back tonight?"
"Why didn't you come back sooner? If you had come back earlier, Mom would have cooked you something delicious."
Lin Cai, holding her bowl, looked at the boiled tofu and tofu soup on the table, picked up a piece and put it in her bowl: "This is already very good, what more could you want?"
She was telling the truth. When food is scarce, this is already a great feast. What more could you ask for?
"You silly girl, how can this be considered good? Good food should include meat. The fish and meat you pickled before are still there. What are you going to do with them if you're not going to cook them?"
Lin's mother meant that all those things should be left for her daughter to eat when she came back. As for what they ate at home, they could eat whatever they wanted, and there was no need to prepare any meat.
Lin Cai understood and her face showed some displeasure. She looked at her parents and said, "Father and Mother, the meat I prepared was just for easy preservation so you could eat it slowly, not for me to save for you."
"If I want to eat it, I can cook it myself and buy it myself. You don't need to save it for me."
"What nonsense are you spouting, you spendthrift girl? Go buy it yourself, even if you don't have money!"
"Why not save the money instead of spending it?"
“Your father and I are old, we don’t need to eat so much meat. Even if we did, we wouldn’t gain weight, it would be a waste.”
Lin Cai had never heard such a statement before, and she felt very uncomfortable, extremely uncomfortable. Lin Bao, who was next to her, heard what Lin's mother said.
He raised his paws: "Mother, what about me?"
"If you and Dad don't want it, you can make it for me!"
"Don't let my current size fool you, I'm actually quite weak. If I don't take care of myself, you won't even have a grandson to hold in the future!"
Lin Bao had barely finished speaking when he was hit on the back of the head, his face almost falling into the rice bowl.
"You brat, what nonsense are you spouting? How can you talk such nonsense?"
Lin's father was still angry and hit him again. This time, Lin Bao was prepared and didn't slam his face into his rice bowl after being hit.
He looked up at his elderly father: "Father, am I wrong?"
"Look how strong I am now, even you could beat me down. With a physique like this, what girl would want to marry me?"
"No girl is willing to marry me, let alone a grandson, I don't even have a daughter-in-law."
He jumped up and left the table as soon as he finished speaking, and his mother chased him out with a fire poker.
Lin Bao, on the other hand, kept howling and insisting that he was right, that he just wanted to eat meat, and that if even this small request couldn't be met, he would never find a wife!
Lin Cai, who was inside the house, heard the noise but didn't even look up. After finishing her meal, she looked at her father.
"Father, if I want to get married, will you object?"
With a loud thud, the sound came from the doorway—the sound of a stick falling to the ground—followed by Lin's mother's slightly trembling voice.
"Cai, my dear Cai, what you just said was true, you really meant it?"
"Mother, don't you already know?"
"I know, but..."
“Gu Tieniu has been dead for several years, and I have been helping to raise his four children. Although I was not good to them before, they are living a life that is unique in the entire Gu family village now.”
“I can’t guarantee, and I dare not guarantee, how long they can continue living like this, but I can guarantee that as long as I am here, they will live the same kind of life as I do.”
“Cai Cai, Mother knows you’re old enough to understand, and Mother supports you in this matter, but if they find out, they really won’t…”
Lin's mother was worried about the two brothers, Gu Dachui and Gu Ershi, fearing that they would try to prevent Lin Cai from getting married in order to make their current life last longer.
"Mother, don't worry, they won't do that."
Neither Gu Dachui nor Gu Ershi would stop her; they might even help with the arrangements, acting as her family.
During the few months she lived with them, she got to know them and realized that they were definitely different from the Gu family.
With her parents' support, Lin Cai had nothing to worry about. She then added, "The village chief said that it hasn't rained for the past few months, so the land will definitely be difficult to cultivate next year."
"The rice shops in town have stopped selling grain, so stop making tofu for now and store the beans in case of emergency."
Lin's parents had farmed for half their lives, how could they not understand!
Hearing what their daughter said, they had no objections. Besides these, Lin Cai also wanted to ask about the entire Lin family's situation.
But when the words reached his lips, he couldn't get any of them out!
The original owner had never learned anything or knew anything since childhood. She was spoiled and grew up without knowing anything. Her three older brothers, although they were all hooligans, were all skilled in martial arts.
She wouldn't believe it for a second if you said you learned it after you grew up.
The fighting skills Lin Bao displayed when he fought Scarface were unlike anything he had learned as an adult. The level of proficiency and the way his punches landed were something that could only be achieved after more than ten years of training.
She wanted to know why they were keeping it from the original owner of the body, and what secrets the Lin family held.
But when the words were on the tip of her tongue, Lin Cai didn't know how to ask them.
They kept it from the original owner of the body and were unwilling to tell her, so why would they tell her now, and why should they tell her?
She asked, but didn't know how to answer. Should she tell them that the body now housed a different soul, one that was no longer the original one?
Lin Cai felt that if she said that, they would definitely set her up and burn her alive. After all, in ancient times, talking about ghosts and monsters was the most taboo thing, wasn't it?
After finishing her meal, Lin Cai helped her mother clear the dishes and then picked up her lantern and went back home.
Lin Bao was also at the Gu family's house. He had run over in the dark, and when he saw Lin Cai returning with a lantern, he immediately asked with a smile, "Little sister, can third brother stay here tonight?"
Lin Cai blew out the lantern and hung it on the outside wall: "No, there are no rooms left here?"
"No rooms left? How can that be? There's still one room..."
"I said it's gone, and that's final. What, do you have a problem with that?"
Upon hearing this, Lin Bao's next words were immediately cut off. He glanced at himself and then had a sudden inspiration.
