"As long as I can remember, I have gone to the mountains every day to collect herbs for pocket money. But all the pocket money has gone into your pocket. After so many years, the accumulated amount does not need me to carefully calculate it, right?"

The original owner met some herbal medicines with a traveling doctor when she was young. He told her the most basic preparation methods and then taught her how to exchange them for money.

But after all, she was too young to hide things. Mrs. Lin told her everything with a little scare. From then on, in addition to her daily housework, she also had to go to the mountains to collect herbs.

Throughout the year, she will always have a little medicinal smell on her body.

The money accumulated over the years can be used to buy a lot of white flour. So if I eat so much white flour now, I won’t get back my money at all.

Mrs. Lin's face was twisted, with disgust and hatred hidden in her eyes, "What are you eating white flour for, you little brat? That's something only your third uncle can eat. If you eat it, what will your third uncle eat? I, the Lin family, raised you. After so many years, I have really raised a white-eyed wolf!"

These words of evading the important and trivial make people want to laugh.

Is that called raising by the Lin family? It's just like raising a dog. When it's happy, it's fed, and when it's unhappy, it's not fed. The reason why it has grown so big is because there is no famine now.

Lin Yan was not affected by her words. She just shook her head helplessly and said softly: "Grandma, you attach so much importance to the third uncle's career. If I say that I will destroy his career with my own hands, what will you do?"

She was smiling, obviously with a gentle expression, but in Mrs. Lin's opinion, it was simply a devil's smile.

"How dare you! If you ruin my son's career, I will never let you go!"

"Really?"

She raised her feet and walked step by step to Mrs. Lin. Seeing that she was about to hit someone at any time, she didn't panic at all. Instead, she looked like she was walking leisurely.

"My dear third uncle, if only people knew that he was supported by the whole family, he even took away his niece's pocket money. Not only that, he also wanted to sell his niece, just so that he could buy calligraphy treasures."

Only a chuckle was heard. She came closer and said almost in Mrs. Lin's ear, "Grandma, if this kind of thing is publicized, will they cancel the title of Third Uncle?"

There are few options for ordinary people. They either have to immerse themselves in farming or find ways to do business.

If you immerse yourself in farming, you will remain a poor man for the rest of your life. If you are doing business, if you don't have that business acumen, you will be defrauded of all your money sooner or later, and you will have to immerse yourself in farming in the end.

Another way out is to study. If you can obtain a meritorious degree, it will be as simple as one person achieving enlightenment and ascending to heaven.

It’s just that it’s difficult for poor people to study, and just practicing Shuxiu stumps a large number of people. Things like pens, ink, paper and inkstones are also expensive. In addition, if you want to study well, you must maintain good interpersonal relationships, which also costs money.

Therefore, in the countryside, if you want to support a student, the whole family has to tighten their belts to live. Life will be easy only after the students return from their studies and obtain academic honors.

Lin Wenbin is a boy student now. If he passes the exam this year, he will be a scholar. Even if he fails the exam in the future, he will still be a scholar. He can be a master even if he cannot be an official, and he will be respected by his students.

Everyone in the Lin family placed their hopes on him, and Mrs. Lin couldn't let anyone ruin his future. She was like a cat whose tail had been stepped on at the moment, with a ferocious expression, "Little beast, if you really dare to do this, I will really kill you."

With that vicious tone, it would be an exaggeration to call him an evil spirit.

"You can give it a try. Anyway, I've already died once. What else do I have to be afraid of? It's you, grandma..." Lin Yan paused, looked her up and down, and finally Tsk.

"Grandma, you are so old now, and I don't know how many years you can live. Believe me, if you want to kill me, I will definitely drag you into the Palace of Hell.

But, if the third uncle is really prosperous by then, I’m afraid you won’t have the life to enjoy this blessing! "

After saying that, she turned around and found a chair to sit down. She looked so leisurely that she didn't realize how scary what she said was.

Lin Erniu didn't dare to say anything, because it was his mother. But Li Lanhua stared at Old Mrs. Lin with hatred in her eyes, "Mother-in-law, if you kill my daughter, I won't let you go! If you want to enjoy happiness, there is no way!"

As a family, we can always get through difficult times by working together. Just like this, it directly shocked Mrs. Lin.

Those who are barefoot are not afraid of those who wear shoes. Who has the courage to provoke a madman?

Mrs. Lin opened her mouth to say something threatening, but she saw Lin Yan smiling. The smile was full of malice, which was chilling to the heart.

"What exactly do you want to do?"

"It's very simple! My father has done a lot of work over the years, but now he is ill and can't do it anymore, so I can only let my uncle and your two grandchildren do it." Lin Yan twisted his neck and looked at the three house.

"As for Third Uncle, he just needs to return the money he has taken from me over the years. I am a very talkative person."

This request is really not too much at all, but these people are used to getting something for nothing. How can they feel comfortable if they are asked to spit out the benefits they have in their mouths?

"Second brother, do you think so too?" Mrs. Lin did not agree directly, but put the pressure on Lin Erniu.

Lin Erniu looked at his mother who had raised him, and then at his wife who was glaring at him beside him. After thinking for a while, he finally said: "Mom, I have been feeling weak lately and I really can't do any work."

"you!"

"Grandma, why should I embarrass my father? My father has to take care of me these days. Look at the wound on my forehead, it was caused by you. As the saying goes, the mother's debt must be paid by the son, and the mistakes you made, grandma, will naturally be repaid by your son. ah!"

After some nonsense, Mrs. Lin was so angry that she fell down.

Lin Yan stood up from the chair, patted the ashes on her body, and said with a smile: "Grandma, I have the receipt for selling my eldest sister back then. If I go to the Yamen, tell me, your good son will How about it?"

Ancient examinations were not that simple. They not only looked at grades, but also at character. Before the exam, someone will be found to investigate. Anyone who speaks ill of someone will be disqualified from the exam.

Generally speaking, no one would say bad things easily. After all, when the other party becomes prosperous, these two kind words may make the other party owe a favor?

"Grandma, I only give you two choices. One, take good care of our whole family, and I will report Uncle San. Two, you can split up the family, but you have to give me all the property in the family, otherwise I will But I won’t agree to the separation of the family. If the family is separated without my permission, then I will have no choice but to go to the Yamen." (End of Chapter)
