Chapter 7: 8

Chapter 8: Lin Amo

  

Lin Laogen’s name is actually very famous in Liushu Village, although every household in the village knows one another, but when it comes to Lin Laogen, the people in the village have a basket of gossip.

 

 

 

The specifics have to start from when Lin Laogen was young, he was a very capable young man in the village, when he became of age and had enlisted in the army- he was named as one of the top ten men in the village.

  

At that time, everyone praised him as someone who was strong, able to work, and capable, but behind his back, but behind his back they said that his brain was too stupid, and he was too honest and kind hearted- he wouldn’t come back if he went to battle with strength and no brain, but who knew that he not only did he come back in the end but he also brought back hundreds of taels of silver.

 

 

Listening to other men in his company, Lin Laogen had the luck of a fool. Once he had entered the barracks, not only was he assigned to the safest area for the army, but later he temporarily encountered the good luck of the battlefield and killed a small general of the enemy army, and won a large amount of silver.

 

 

It was precisely because of this huge sum of money that the Lin family, the poorest in Liushu Village, became a rich household in the village. He built a big house and bought a good field. In the end, Lin Laogen also arranged marriage with a beautiful wife.

 

However, Lin Laogen’s good luck seemed to end here. After getting married, his wife got pregnant very quickly, but who knew that the first child given birth to, not only was he a ger, but he was also an ugly ger with a large green spot on his face.

 

  

The long-tongued women in the village all talked about the child being an unlucky star to the family, and the old woman of the Lin family didn’t like him either so she threw the baby directly into the woods. Fortunately, Lin Laogen didn’t dislike the poor child and already loved him as his own son so he went to the forest to pick the child up. Lin Laogen, who has always been filial and obedient, had angrily quarreled with his mother.

 

Later, it seemed that just as if it was confirmed that his ger was a catastrophe, the Lin family’s luck had not been good, not a single thing was going well, the harvest in the fields was not good, and the family environment gradually became tense again.

  

To make matters worse, after giving birth to a young son, his beautiful wife stole silver taels from the family and ran away with another man. Lin Laogen went after them, but not only did they not repent, they also broke his leg making him limp back to the village. This made the Lin family the laughing stock of the village and they were the ones chattered about during tea and dinner- the old woman of the Lin family blamed everything as the fault of the eldest Lin child and ask Lin Laogen to throw away the ger.

 

However, although Lin Laogen usually listens to his mother’s words, despite being as filial as a soft bun- he protected his two children tightly, and he didn’t agree with anything his mother proposed. In anger, he proposed to split the family up before his mother finally stopped.

After all, even if Lin Laogen had a lame leg, he is still a strong laborer. Without him, the second and third child who are busy with their work at home would not be able to cope. More importantly, the old woman of the Lin family was biased and does not want to let the third child work, and also burdens the eldest and the second with the hard work in order to make money and help the younger son marry a proper wife, so this family was not divided in the end. 

 

However, Lin Laogen didn’t know whether he was stimulated by his mother’s throwing of his baby, or that he suddenly became smart. The money he earned since then, except for his normal filial piety, was never to be handed in again. His ger has a need for a proper dowry and his son was smart and could read, he wanted to be able to send him to school. He doesn’t listen to his mother’s words- apart from not moving out, the family still eats together and work in the same fields, but it is no different from splitting the family.

 

 

But usually, as long as his two children are not involved, Lin Laogen is still very honest and easy to talk to, but once his two children are involved, his bull-temper will rise. 

 

Especially his ugly ger, he didn’t let others speak badly of his ger so now Mrs. Zhou’s words immediately angered him- his face turned red in anger.

The child who complained just now, that is, Lin Laogen’s youngest son, Lin Tianbao continued to add fuel to the original complaint- now that his father was here, he dares the old woman to curse his brother, hmph! 

 

Saying that Lin Amo could not marry was the source of Lin Laogen’s anger, his eyes became redder, and there was an aura of wanting to beat others.

 

Grandma Zhou was frightened by his appearance, and she no longer dared to stay in front of the raging bull- turning around quickly, she stiffly said “I don’t have to care about you. bastards”, and hurriedly left with her skirt lifted at the corners. 

 

As soon as she slipped away, the fight stopped. The village chief patted Lin Laogen’s shoulder and said a few words to comfort him, and then greeted the villagers who were watching the liveliness of the events and persuaded them to leave. Despite being a small village, but such trivialities like this is enough to bother him as the village chief.

 

After everyone had dispersed, Lin Laogen’s anger subsided under the persuasion of the village head, and when he looked at his ger, his expression turned worried. 

 

“Amo, why are you arguing with Mrs. Zhou again? Didn’t Dad tell you? That old lady is not afraid of anyone despite her age. You are still a ger, no one’s saying anything now but when this matter spreads out, nobody would come to propose a marriage. Dad already told you some time ago that you are too fierce, so why don’t you listen to your father’s worries…”

 

 

“What “too fierce”? Dad, people think I’m ugly- I know where I was wrong but I was so angry that I quarreled with Zhou Ana today, you see what brother Zhou has been beaten into, if I didn’t help, Brother Zhou will be dead!” 

 

Brother Lin has a cheerful and sloppy temperament. He doesn’t care what outsiders think. Anyway, he has been accustomed to being pointed at and spoken about since he was a child. He doesn’t care about what is being said.

 

The child Lin Tianbao nodded in agreement and stood by his brother’s side, “Father, this time I really don’t blame our brother for being impulsive, because the old woman of the Zhou family is too much. Besides, my brother won’t be unable to marry, brother Haisheng has already confessed to liking him, it’s just you who don’t agree.” 

 

“Hush!” When he heard his brother’s words, Brother Lin, who was acting indifferent just now, blushed in embarrassment.

“I’ve known for a long time now!” 

 

Lin Tianbao stuck out his tongue at his brother.

 

“No way! No! We can’t get married with the Zhao family. The Zhao family’s old couple are not sincere. When I was in the military with Zhao Dachong, the man always tricked me into helping him. The Liu family was also famous in our village. With two bad people together! That child is just like his parents, a thief, he wants to marry you for the work you’ll do for their family, you won’t live a good life with them!” 

 

Hearing the words of his two children, Lin Laogen’s expression suddenly changed, and his silly and honest character suddenly became serious, wanting to relay the seriousness of his words to his family.

 

“Yes, yes, dad, anyway- let’s take Brother Zhou back to our house and hide him for two days, can’t we? If he goes back now, Grandma Zhou will definitely beat him to vent her anger…” 

 

Seeing their father staring at them with a serious expression, the Lin family brothers immediately nodded their heads seriously, while pulling the thin brother Zhou who was standing next to them to change the subject.

 

 

But Wu Qingyuan, who had been watching the few people, clearly noticed that Brother Lin’s sparkling eyes flashed with a sly look, Lin Tianbao also blinked at his brother, and the two brothers were obviously not as innocent or naive as their father believes. 

 

“Father, who is he?”

 

At this time, the crowd had already dispersed and only a few of them were left. After Lin Laogen nodded and agreed to temporarily take in Brother Zhou, the relieved Lin Amo finally noticed him and asked his father curiously. 

 

Lin Laogen realized that when he was anxious just now, he had forgotten the other matters, and slapped his head and hurriedly introduced Wu Qingyuan.

 

“See here, I forgot, Brother Wu, sorry for this embarrassment, this are the ones I’ve been telling you about just before- my ger Lin Amo, and my son Lin Tianbao.” 

 

After speaking, he introduced him to the two brothers of the Lin family.

 

“Amo, Tianbao, this is Wu Qingyuan, he is here to find relatives, and he wants to stay in our house for a while…” 

 

“Ah, he wants to live in our house?”

 

The two Lin family brothers said in unison, and then looked at Wu Qingyuan with a little bit of hesitation. 

 

Although the country folks are simple, and the people here are much more warm and friendly than the apocalyptic people, but Wu Qingyuan is a strange man after all, there would still be many suspicions regarding what kind of character he has? And their family is full of unmarried gers and girls, so it is inconvenient for a big man to live there.

 

 

Although Lin Laogen is called dumb and a fool by others, he is not as stupid as the others thinks he is. He has considered these issues, but these issues are not a problem for him. 

 

He smiled at Wu Qingyuan and excused himself, “Brother, wait a minute,” then he pulled his ger to the side, and he showed out his earned copper coins earned from Wu Qingyuan today as he explained excitedly.

 

“Amo, don’t worry, this brother Wu is not a bad person. Even if he has bad intentions, can your father, second uncle and third uncle be unable to beat him? Besides, this village is our territory, and he can’t do anything bad. Look, this is the money he gave Dad today. He said that as long as Dad helps him go to the surrounding villages to find news about his relatives, he will pay Dad lots of money. Also, despite living in our house, Dad is not doing it for free so I charge him eight copper coins for accommodation for one night. Anyway, the room in our house is empty. It’s so cost-effective. Don’t you think Daddy is smart…” 

 

In the end, Lin Laogen’s tone had a taste of compliment.

 

Lin Amo looked at the money in his father’s hands, thought for a while, and settled the matter in his mind. 

 

His father goes to the pier every day to work for a long time, and he will earn twenty or thirty copper coins if he exhausts himselfs. If they allow this guy to rent, he will earn an extra 8 copper coins every day, and if his father says so, he will allow this person to rent. Running errands and find some relatives- he doesn’t need to work at the docks for a few days. There is no need him to stop him. This year his dad won’t need to go back to the docks. This is the best of both worlds.

 

In the end, Lin Amo thought it was feasible, and smiled at his father and praised him, “Father, you are so smart!” Then he walked to Wu Qingyuan and exhorted him. 

 

“Okay, we’ll let you live in our house, but there are many girls and gers in our yard. You have to pay attention to manners and boundaries. There is also an accommodation fee of eight copper coins a night. You can settle the meal by yourself. Is this okay for you?”

 

“No problem.” 

 

Wu Qingyuan nodded with a smile without hesitation.

 

 

His six senses were extremely sensitive, and he had heard all the whispers that the two of them exchanged. He looked vaguely at the young man in front of him, and left a thought in his heart. It seems that the person in charge of the Lin family is the ger of Lin Laogen, and he only listens to his son. This pair of father and son are interesting…
