A doctor who travels through two eras

Chapter 58 Three Sons and Three Bowls of Water

In the evening, the Lin family was not busy cooking, but hurried to see Lin Sanqi's future new house.

When she saw the yard full of weeds and a dilapidated pavilion, Jin Caifeng was so anxious that her eyes almost fell out:

"Ah, kid, how can you live in a place like this? There's no one here, and there are many snakes, rats, insects and mosquitoes. This is a really good place, but it was taken away by someone long ago. How can you still stay here?"

Lin Gancao was also a little anxious:
"How about this, Jiageng is still young, he can sleep with us. We can leave half of our east room for you, and you can move out when you get a good house in the future, okay?"

When Lin Sanqi heard his elder brother's suggestion, he was quite grateful.

As the saying goes, it is easy to invite a god but difficult to send him away. If half of the house is really divided out, if Lin Sanqi doesn't leave in the future, this half of the house will belong to him, Lin Sanqi, forever, and the old family will definitely suffer.

Didn’t you see that the second brother’s couple hid far away and didn’t say a word?

Lin Kucan didn't care and started to look around the garden within the garden with a smile. He seldom came to the back garden and didn't know the layout of the place.

But after taking a closer look, he really figured out the trick, so he waved to his youngest son:

"Qizi, do you see the brick wall and archway in front? If you push a door there, this huge garden will belong to you. Do you want me to talk to Dean Shen and Section Chief Quan?"

Lin Sanqi laughed out loud:
"Dad, we are on the same page. I have already talked to Section Chief Quan, and he has agreed. This waterside pavilion and this small garden will be reported as a hospital warehouse. From now on, this piece of land will belong to me."

Lin Kucan also laughed: "Sly, smart, worthy of being my son."

Jin Caifeng turned from sadness to joy when she heard this:
"Really? This little garden will be yours from now on? That's great. If there's a need in the future, I can build a few houses in this yard. Then my lovely grandchildren will have a place to live. Hehehe~~~"

Lin Duzhong and Pei Xuehua both curled their lips. They still insisted on living in the main house in the courtyard. That was the proper house. What good was there in this wild house? It smelled musty.

Lin Kucan toured the house again, inside and out, and there was one thing he was not satisfied with:
"This house is hot in the summer and cold in the winter. We need to find a way to renovate it. I will go to the logistics department tomorrow and I will pay for it on behalf of my son."

The eldest brother Lin had no objection, but the second brother Lin was unhappy when he heard it, but he didn't say anything. Instead, he poked his wife.

Pei Xuehua understood immediately, and then continued:
"Dad, building a house now is a big deal. The materials and labor will cost hundreds of dollars. You still have grandchildren, and there will be more in the future. You can't spend all your retirement money."

Jin Caifeng raised her eyebrows and was about to lose her temper, but was stopped by Lin Sanqi:
"Don't worry, second sister-in-law. We have separated. How can I take advantage of Dad? I have already made an agreement with Section Chief Quan. He will help me with the materials and labor. I will pay for it myself. Dad and Mom don't need to pay out of their own pockets."

Lin Lao Er pretended to be unhappy and cursed:
"We are all family, why do we have to be so divided? Really, I am already 23 years old, I have my own ideas, do I need you to interfere?"

Everyone present knew that this was a reference to Lin Sanqi, meaning, you are 23 years old, how dare you rely on your parents for support?
You have to know that Lin's father and mother have a lot of money and gold, and they are still making money. If they all gave them to Lin Lao San, the youngest son would get a great advantage.

If Lin's father and mother's money were kept, the inheritance could be divided equally among the three sons after the two old people passed away.

So Lin Duzhong and Pei Xuehua are very smart. They would use words to provoke Lin Sanqi from time to time to make him feel embarrassed to take extra money.

Lin Kucan didn't say anything when he heard what his second son and his wife said. If he scolded his second son's wife at this time, it would cause unrest in the family. Isn't this what he feared when he divided the family?

Besides, he knew that his youngest son was a "dragon crossing the river" and did not need the help of the old couple. "Alright, alright, since Qizi has his own ideas, let Qizi do it himself. Let's go home. I'm hungry."

After the old man said this, the Lin family members went back to their rooms to prepare dinner.

After returning home, Jin Caifeng was very dissatisfied with her second son. She kept complaining about him and was in a bad mood.

But when she opened the rice jar, she suddenly found that she had stored a lot of rice at home. Jin Caifeng's mood improved greatly for a moment. Food is life.

"Hubby, look at how much rice Qizi brought back. Should we give some to the eldest and second eldest families?"

Lin Kucan said while reading a book without raising his head:
"No need to share, just the three of us. If you care about your grandchildren, just let them come to our place to eat. Qizi worked hard to get this rice, so let's not be pushy and disappoint Qizi."

Jin Caifeng touched the rice and said with emotion:

"I never thought that we didn't enjoy the blessings of the first and second children, but the blessings of the third child. This child has had a very difficult life. We were not with him for those 10 years, and I don't know how he managed to survive..."

"It's all thanks to our ancestors that our youngest son returned home healthy and well, and that they were able to keep us from starving."

"Yes, may our ancestors bless us..."

During dinner time, the news that Lin Sanqi had been assigned the pavilion in the back garden spread quickly among every household. After dinner, everyone started talking about it while fanning themselves.

Bao Yansheng asked puzzledly: "Do you think the Lin family kid is really stupid or just pretending to be stupid? Can people live in the back garden?"

Matchmaker Wang lowered her voice and said in a mysterious voice:

"I heard that many people died in that pond during the Qing Dynasty and the Republic of China. The maids and concubines who couldn't survive jumped into the water and drowned. They were in a panic at night."

This resonated with Ma Dazhuang, who gestured excitedly:
"One time I went to the back garden, and guess what? I saw such a thick snake. It stood up straight when it saw me, spitting out its tongue and trying to bite me. Oh my god, it was so scary. I wouldn't even live in this back garden for free."

"This Lin Sanqi can just wait to freeze to death in the winter. If you want a house, you should live in this proper courtyard."

"That's right. We live so well here. It's not Lin Sanqi's turn."

Hou Daya seemed to see through everything at this time, and said proudly:
"In my opinion, even Lin Laoguang is biased. The eldest son and the second son live in the main house, and the youngest son has a shabby house. It's not fair. Just wait for the brothers to fight in the future."

"Who says it's not true? I guess they deliberately lost their youngest son 10 years ago to avoid having another burden."

"Oh, how can there be such cruel parents in the world!"

"I knew at first glance that Jin Caifeng was not a good person. People in the South have pointed faces and monkey cheeks, and they look mean..."
