C42 Fifty Years of Pension
C42 Fifty Years of Pension
"Father, mother, brother. You don't blame me for acting on my own, do you?" Lin Miaoting asked carefully.
Lin Kaishan did not say anything. He just quietly tidied up the messy outer room. Tang Xuemei looked at Lin Miaoting with a smile and then shook her head to indicate that she was not angry.
As for Lin Zhize, if not for his father being alone, he would have applauded long ago! Therefore, he could only squeeze to Lin Miaoting's side and give her a thumbs up. He gave her a thumbs-up manually!
After about two hours, the house was finally cleaned up. Tang Xuemei took out five banknotes from the bottom of the cabinet on the brick bed and handed them to Lin Miaoting. It was the five hundred silver notes that Lin Miaoting took back from Jufu Restaurant that day and handed to Tang Xue with her own hands.
"Keer, tomorrow you go to town with your brother and your father to exchange for some silver and give a hundred silver to your grandmother. After that, we will use this silver to find a house to stay in and make plans!"
Tang Xuemei did not forget to look at her husband as she spoke. Seeing that his head was lowered, she could only shake her head secretly. No one would feel good about this matter. Bone and blood familial love was really broken just like that. How heartless and heartless was that!
"It's fine. Don't worry about me. I'm just a little unwilling. Mother actually treated us like that. If Keer did not sell the seasoning recipe a few days ago, she would have gotten a sum of money. Right now, wouldn't our family want it? ..." "
At this point, Lin Kaishan's words sounded a little nasal. As the saying goes, a man's tears are not light, but they have yet to reach the point of sadness. After all, she was Lin Kaishan's biological mother! How could a biological mother treat her son like this? How could she not hurt her son's heart?
"When I come back tomorrow, I'll talk to the village chief and see if there are any empty houses. Let's squeeze in first. Then, I'll see if I can apply for an exploration!"
In the middle of the night, Lin Miaoting heard a slight and heavy sobbing sound in the house. She felt a little uncomfortable in her heart. Was she a little too anxious?
The sky was slightly bright and the sound of the chicken woke up thousands of households. Tang Xuemei had woken up early to cook for Lin Miaoting and her grandfather.
"Yes, Keer has eaten the eggs!" An egg that was slightly hot was stuffed into Lin Miaoting's hands, "Keer, today is your birthday on the 18th day of the first month. Originally, I and your father wanted to give you a good celebration, but in the end, this matter happened, so you should eat an egg first. When we reach the town, we will ask your father to buy you a bowl of noodles to eat!"
Lin Miaoting could hear that Tang Xuemei's words were a little uncomfortable, and she had to bear with it. Mother, it's quite good. As long as the family is accompanying Keer to celebrate her birthday, Keer is the happiest!"
"Okay, we will accompany you in the future!" Lin Zhize swore and was hit on the head by Tang Xuemei.
"Your sister is already fourteen this year. She will be next year. How are you going to spend the rest of your life with her in the future? " Do you still want your sister to get married?! "
"Then I'll go after her!" Lin Zhize muttered in a low voice.
The family ate their breakfast happily, as if nothing bad had happened yesterday.
In the afternoon, Lin Kaishan brought Li Miaoting home from the town. Lin Miaoting first asked Lin Kaishan to bring the newly bought pork and wine to Village Chief Lin's house, while Tang Xuemei and she packed their things at home.
After a while, Lin Kaishan invited the village chief and the well-respected elders in the village. After all, this could be considered a second branch family! It was just that this branch family was not honorable.
"Lin family's Second Brother, are you all ready?" A senior who came from the same sect as Lin Miaoting asked.
"Yes, uncle."
"Then let's go!"
A group of people majestically went to the upper house of the Lin family. Tang Xuemei and Lin Miaoting first sent the things that were packed up in the house to Lin Bowen's house in case those top quality goods came to ask for them.
Wait! When Lin Miaoting and Tang Xuemei finished delivering the things, they planned to go and fetch Lin Kaishan. All I heard was a loud noise coming from the upper room of the Lin family. There was also Madame Lin's unrelenting voice.
"Do you think you don't need to pay for your retirement after giving this little bit of money? The pension that you hand over every year must not be a single cent less!"
"Lin family, aren't you trying to force your son into a dead end?!" An old man in the room said.
"What are you forcing? Isn't that little b * tch of hers worth a lot of money? With so much money, he can get it in a day. He still lacks the yearly tribute silver!" Madame Lin did not give up. The men in the room looked at Lin Tai, hoping that he could come out and express his feelings. How could Lin Tai just smoke and not make a sound?
Suddenly, an old man slammed the table and stood up, "Lin Tai, you were destroyed by this woman in your previous life. I don't think there will be any good results for the rest of your life!"
There was no sound in the room. Those who were older knew that Lin Tai had the chance to be an official back then. How could Madame Lin's family be so greedy? They received a large sum of silver taels. In the end, they were framed and lost their official position. They benefited a scholar from the neighboring village.
Lin Miaoting who walked into the house raised her eyebrows. Although he did not know that part of the past, he could more or less understand that Madame Lin must have cheated Lin Tai when she was young. It was most likely related to this silver money!
"This money is only the money for us to raise them and my second son to marry a wife. My family owed Second Brother a favor for giving birth to him, so he must also pay the pension!" Lin Tai's words made everyone present extremely angry. Lin Kaishan's already injured heart fell into the ice cellar once again.
In fact, Lin Tai didn't want to say anything. It was just that he understood that only if he continued to hold Lin Kaishan in his hands would he be able to do as he wished.
"Uncle Chief, how much is the annual allowance in the village?" Li Miaoting's calm voice broke the silence in the house.
"Normally, people only pay two taels of silver for a year. Some people pay two taels of silver for a year." Lin Miaoting sneered when she heard that. So her family gave two taels of silver a year more! Lin Miaoting turned her gaze to Madame Lin who was sitting in the brick bed the entire time.
"Milk, did we give this retirement silver and you stopped looking for trouble with my family?"
"Yes!" "Yes," Madame Lin said.
"Milk, you have to keep your word. Uncle Village Chief and the other men will be here today as witnesses! My family will pay for this retirement silver!"
Madame Lin was very happy when she heard this. On the other hand, Lin Tai, who was at the side, had some thoughts and was about to say something that sounded like he was not in a hurry. She saw Lin Miaoting take out a hundred silver note and place it on the brick bed?
"This was originally the money I wanted to give to my parents. After all, I sold myself, so I naturally can't be filial in the future. I originally wanted to let them enjoy their old age in peace. " Now that these hundred taels of silver have been given to my grandfather's milk, I can only hope that within these fifty years, they won't harass my family again! " It can also be considered as letting my parents enjoy their old age in peace! "
