Chapter 184 I Won't Fight with You
Lin Cai nodded and hummed in agreement. After the two left, Lin Bao jumped out and asked, "What's the meaning of these two?"
Scarface, who had come out, followed him back: "Why don't we just go back and ask?"
"Go ask him?" Lin Bao caught up with Scarface.
"She's not my sister, what does it have to do with me?" Scarface put his hands in his pockets and slowly walked back.
"You believe me if I get my sister to withhold your food rations?"
"Lin Bao, you're getting more and more shameless."
"Likewise, why bother with any face-saving between us!"
Scarface didn't want to talk anymore; he didn't want to talk to this person.
When the two returned, they did not see Gu Zhan, but only heard sounds coming from the kitchen.
Lin Bao gave Scarface a meaningful look, but Scarface remained unmoved, completely assuming that Lin Bao was having an eye problem or just having a fit.
Scarface remained unmoved, so Lin Bao walked straight over and said, "What are you doing? Didn't you see me giving you a look?"
"I saw it, what's wrong?"
"Then why don't you hurry up and go inside?"
"What does this have to do with me? Why should I go in?"
Do you still want to stay here?
Scarface, who had already closed his eyes, opened them and looked at Lin Bao: "This is the Gu family... not your Lin family."
"This is my sister's house," Lin Bao said through gritted teeth.
"That's just your sister's house." Not your house.
"You really aren't going?"
With his eyes closed, Lin Bao said it all. He kicked the chair, making it shake.
He glared fiercely at the scar on the chair, then strode toward the kitchen.
Lin Cai was the only one inside. Lin Bao looked left and right but didn't see anyone else. When Lin Cai saw that it was Lin Bao who came in, and saw him looking left and right as if he was looking for something, she asked him.
"Third Brother, what are you looking for?"
"Huh? I'm looking for Big Hammer's wife. It's already noon, and you're already cooking. Where is Big Hammer's wife?"
"She's with her mother. Her mother has work to do today, and she can't manage it all by herself. Huani is thoughtful, so I sent her over to help."
Upon hearing this, Lin Bao remembered that he had seen it when he came over that morning. He exclaimed and sat down in front of the stove.
"Oh, what about you?"
Lin Cai looked up at him upon hearing this: "What about me?"
"You've arranged everything for those siblings, even their wives. What about you? How are you going to arrange things?"
Upon hearing this, Lin Cai paused for a moment, then continued putting the meatballs into the pot, saying as she did so, "Still considering..."
He had been thinking that he could help if his sister didn't have any plans, but when he heard this, Lin Bao was instantly dismayed.
He wanted to know what the man surnamed Gu and his sister had said to each other by the river, and why his sister had said she would reconsider.
Looking at the fire in the stove, Lin Bao wanted to tell Lin Cai not to rush into a decision, but to look around more and find someone reliable.
Besides, we don't need to just find one. With three older brothers, finding seventeen or eighteen wouldn't be a problem.
Lin Bao said what he was thinking, and Gu Zhan, who was carrying a fish, overheard it all.
He took a fish into the kitchen and placed it in an empty bowl, though his movements weren't very gentle.
Lin Cai was still making meatballs, which were made by combining potatoes and minced pork.
They were originally intended for making soup, but they tend to fall apart easily, so she simply made them into balls, fried them, and then used them to make soup.
There were a few more fish almost finished when Gu Zhan brought them over. She wanted to make a sauerkraut fish dish for lunch today.
The Gu family prepared a nice lunch, but Zhang Caixia, who was sent back home, wasn't so lucky!
On her way back, she was scolded the whole way and cried the entire way. The wind and snow hit her in the face, and the tears on her face were blown by the wind, hanging cold and icy, making her face almost crack from the cold.
But Zhang's mother didn't care at all; she kept scolding him for as long as he was gone.
"Tell me about yourself, your father and I raised you all these years, what use are you anyway?"
"You can't even hold onto a man. You eat so much food and use so many good things, where did all that money go?"
“Your father and I always hoped that when you got married, you would marry a good man, so that your father and I could get some benefits from it.”
"But now look what's happened, you went out and came back with nothing, tell me what you..."
Zhang's mother kept complaining about Zhang Caixia, while Zhang Caixia didn't dare to say a word the whole way.
She felt that after this trip, her mother had changed, become a stranger, and became someone she no longer recognized.
In the past, no matter what happened or whose fault it was, my mother would always stand by my side.
But today, her mother not only didn't stand by her side, but also scolded her.
Zhang's mother cursed and complained the whole way, while Zhang Caixia's younger brother, Zhang Feilong, kept fanning the flames and adding fuel to the fire.
Every time Zhang's mother said something, he would chime in with "Yes, that's right," which infuriated Zhang Caixia.
Her younger brother, who was never this bold before when he was at home, has become bolder now that he's out, and even dares to stir up trouble.
Zhang's mother insisted that Zhang Caixia continue her journey and that she absolutely had to marry into the Gu family; otherwise, she would marry Zhang Caixia off to a widower.
As soon as he finished speaking, Zhang Feilong immediately perked up: "Sister, if you don't want to marry the widower at the end of the village, then you should try harder."
"I heard that the man at the end of the village isn't as good as the Brother Gu you mentioned. Putting aside everything else, his big black teeth alone could probably suffocate someone!"
Upon hearing this, Zhang Caixia's face turned pale. She didn't want to marry a bachelor, much less a widower.
Gu Zhan knew he had no choice but to wait, but instead of hearing what he wanted to hear, he encountered something that got in his way.
Lin Cai was speechless when she saw the person loitering at the door!
Wasn't what I said that day clear enough?
She clearly stated that this is the Gu family residence, but not Gu Zhan's Gu family residence. How come this person didn't remember that?
Zhang Caixia lingered outside the door, neither knocking nor going in. After a while, probably feeling cold, Lin Cai came out to check but didn't see her.
Just as she had gathered her tools and was about to leave, Zhang Caixia darted out from the side and knelt down in front of the door.
Lin Cai took several steps back, frowning deeply as she looked at her: "Miss Zhang, what are you doing?"
"Sister Lin, I beg you, I beg you to let me stay."
"I know you like Brother Gu too. Don't worry, I won't compete with you. Just let me be Brother Gu's maid."
"Sister Lin, please help me! Just let me stay with you, I really don't want anything else..."
As Zhang Caixia spoke, she kowtowed, attracting the attention of passersby outside.
