Chapter 169 deemed feasible
"Lin Cai!! What are you doing standing outside in this heavy snow?"
"You still went out in the heavy snow, didn't you?"
"I'm your older brother, I'm stronger than you, how can the two of us compare?"
"Third Brother, why do you think it suddenly snowed here?"
Lin Bao didn't know how to answer for a moment. He knew that it wasn't just snowing here, but also in other places.
Moreover, those places receive much more snowfall than they do here, so if it's just for a day or a short period, it doesn't matter.
But if it's continuous snowfall, then it's hard to say.
Lin Cai turned to look at Lin Bao: "Third Brother, why won't you answer me?"
"You brat, I'm not an expert. How am I supposed to answer questions I don't even know the answer to?"
A know-it-all?
Lin Cai repeated the word softly. How could Lin Bao know the word? She didn't remember saying it.
She had never uttered those words, and they couldn't possibly be here. How could Lin Bao know them?
Lin Cai's gaze was somewhat focused, which Lin Bao quickly noticed. He shifted his gaze and looked at Lin Cai with full vigilance.
"Little sister, why are you looking at me like that?"
"I'm wondering why you're such a grown man and don't even have a wife. Do you want to be a bachelor?"
"Being single is fine, what's wrong with being single? As long as one family is fed, the whole family is not hungry, isn't that great?"
Lin Cai looked at him with a leisurely gaze: "Third Brother, tell me, are you serious? Do you really want to be a bachelor?"
She repeated herself, but Lin Bao didn't detect anything amiss and loudly replied, "Of course, I'll never get married in my life. I'm perfectly fine on my own!"
Before I could even say the word "good," I was slapped on the head, followed by a wave of my mother's love.
"It's fine if I'm alone, it's fine if I beat you to death. I raised you to this age, and you didn't even leave me a grandson. If I had known you were like this, I should have strangled you when you were born."
"If I strangled you back then, I wouldn't have to go through all the trouble of finding food for you or keeping you alive..."
Lin's mother chased after him all over the yard with a bamboo pole in her hand. The yard of the Gu family's new house was larger than that of the Lin family's, and the distance between the mother and son as they circled around increased.
Lin Bao was running ahead when he heard what his mother said. He couldn't help but retort, "Mother, you can't say that. If you had strangled me back then, you wouldn't have such a handsome son now."
"If I don't have you, I don't have you. Do you think I care? Let me tell you, I don't like any of you three brothers. If it weren't for your sister, I would have thrown you away long ago."
"Mother, what you said hurt me deeply. You've pierced my heart completely. Even though my little sister is your precious child, you can't hurt me like this!"
Hearing this, Lin Cai looked at Lin Bao, who was dodging the bamboo pole, and felt a pang of heartache! Another word had been added to the list, so where did this person hear it from?
“So what if I stab you? Can’t I stab you? I’m not only going to stab you, I’m going to stab you until you’re riddled with holes.”
Lin's mother said it, and she did it; she didn't just hit with the bamboo stick anymore, she poked it directly.
Lin Bao was a little too slow, and the bamboo pole behind him felt it could poke him.
The mother and son were running and chasing each other in the yard. Lin Bao didn't dare to slow down at all, for fear that if he slowed down, his mother would hit him with the bamboo pole behind her.
Seeing Lin Bao running so diligently with his head down, Lin Cai quietly waved to her mother and then pointed at Lin Bao, who was running with his head down.
The mother and daughter exchanged a glance, and Lin's mother said loudly, "You brat, you better run faster than I can, or I'll stab you through the neck when I catch up with you."
Lin Bao, who was already running hard, ran even harder after hearing this, shouting, "Mother, you are my own mother, we are still mother and son, can't you let me go for the sake of me being your son?"
"I'll let you go, my foot! I'm telling you, I'll never let you go! You didn't even leave me a grandson! I'll kill you today... You little brat, don't run away..."
As Lin's mother spoke, she sat down next to her daughter. Sitting beside her, watching her son run around, she was overjoyed.
The snow fell for two days and then gradually stopped. The weeds in the fields were frozen solid, and people who came out and saw their own vegetables were heartbroken.
There wasn't much to begin with, and now with this snow, there's practically nothing left!
"Oh my god, how are we supposed to live like this!"
"All the vegetables in the field have died, there's nothing left to eat, everyone might as well starve!"
After looking at the vegetables in the field, they all went home disappointed. There were no vegetables left, but the people were still alive!
If we're still alive, then we have to keep living; life has to go on as usual!
The situation in Lin Cai's courtyard was no better; the coriander and spinach that had sprouted were now dead.
She got the seeds from her room. Because she had sold some wine before, the area around the refrigerator had expanded a bit, and she could now access some of the seeds she had bought earlier.
Lin Bao had been running around all morning for nothing. After realizing what was happening, he didn't want to move anymore, so he grabbed a chair and sat down under the eaves.
"Why are you all so worried? You survived the famine, so why can't you survive now?"
Lin Bao felt there was no need to worry about this at all. He figured he could deal with whatever came his way, and as long as he had hands and feet, he wouldn't starve.
But as soon as he finished speaking, he was hit on the leg with a stick. Lin's father, who had appeared out of nowhere, had given him a blow out of fatherly love.
"You bastard who doesn't understand the hardship of hard times, you don't want to enjoy the good life, you just want to starve, right?"
"Then you can eat only one meal a day starting today, and see how many days you can endure it."
Having been inexplicably struck with a stick and then hearing that his food supply was to be cut off, Lin Bao was completely distraught.
He stared wide-eyed at his elderly father's retreating figure: "Did you hear what my old man just said?"
Sitting next to him was Scarface, who had just come out. He had witnessed Lin Bao being beaten, and he nodded when he heard the question.
"I heard that, and I think it's feasible."
"Workable my foot! Get the hell out of my way."
Damn it, we're about to run out of food, and this guy says it's feasible. Does that mean he's going to run out of food?
“I think the old man is right. Since you think it’s nothing, you should try it and experience what it tastes like.”
Only when you feel it well and truly understand it will you refrain from saying or thinking those things.
