1990, Reborn as a Beachcomber, From Rascal to Brilliant Guy

"Father, you..."

"You good-for-nothing brat, you finally decided to come back?"

Before Lin Shuisheng could finish speaking, Lin Yaoguang suddenly grabbed a broom that was lying to the side and swung it at Lin Shuisheng.

"Hey, Dad, let's talk this out, don't hit me!"

Lin Shuisheng stepped aside and loudly advised.

But Lin Yaoguang not only ignored him, he whipped her even harder.

Because he was carrying a sack, Lin Shuisheng was careless and failed to dodge, taking a direct hit to the calf with the stick, which made him gasp in pain.

Seeing that Lin Yaoguang was serious, he quickly perked up and unleashed his full strength. In the blink of an eye, he slipped through the door and stood at the door of his room.

It wasn't that he didn't want to go in; he was worried that if he caught the chill while sailing at night, he might accidentally pass it on to his wife and children.

"You damned brat, get out here right now!"

Lin Yaoguang chased after Lin Shuisheng through the gate, stood in front of him, holding a pipe in one hand and a broom in the other, his face full of anger.

"Dad, let me explain. I really did have to go to the city on business. You'll see..."

Lin Shuisheng leaned against the door, patiently trying to explain to Lin Yaoguang.

However, when he handed over the sack, intending to show Lin Yaoguang the gifts he had bought from the city,

Lin Yaoguang suddenly swung his broom, knocking the sack to the ground. He then stepped forward and kicked the sack to the edge of the courtyard. He glared angrily at Lin Shuisheng.

"Now that things have come to this, you still dare to try to fool me with this piece of junk? Don't think I don't know what you're up to. Your older brothers have already told you everything you're planning."

Everyone else is buying diesel generators, so you have to buy one too? Don't you even know how much money you have in your pocket?

Have you paid off all the debts you owe?

You haven't made much money, yet you're already thinking about how to enjoy life. Don't you even think about how much money your wife is spending every day during her postpartum period?

You just finished lunch and rushed off to the county town without even seeing your mother-in-law off. You didn't come back until midnight. Don't you know that your family is waiting for the boat to go out to sea and earn money?

I think you're hopeless!

At this point, he swung the broom with a look of utter disappointment, slamming it against the door with a loud "smack."

Lin Shuisheng watched Lin Yaoguang's movements, his arm froze in mid-air, and the expression on his face gradually became somewhat unpleasant.

He knew that Lin Yaoguang had always had a problem with him, thinking that he was always thinking about borrowing money to do business, but he had never succeeded in doing so. He thought that Lin Yaoguang was being unrealistic, overestimating his abilities, and making a fool of himself.

Even in his previous life, after his grandmother accidentally fell and died in the vegetable garden, Lin Yaoguang never cared about him anymore. He would never look for him for anything, as if he didn't exist.

He admitted that he was indeed somewhat disappointing in his past life, always thinking he was very capable no matter what he did and always hoping to achieve great things in one step.

Later, burdened by debt and childlessness, he couldn't bring himself to admit his failure and kept running away from reality. Eventually, he degenerated to the point where his wife had to support the family. It wasn't until he was over fifty, nearing sixty, that he finally understood.

Respect is earned little by little, and the path is walked step by step.

Nothing else matters; the most important thing is to make myself and my family happy.

Now that he has been given a second chance at life, he continues to work towards this goal and has already achieved some success.

He originally thought that this would at least change Lin Yaoguang's impression and attitude towards him.

In retrospect, he had overestimated the reality.

Just like Shen Gongbao said, prejudice in people's hearts is a mountain that you can't move no matter how hard you try.

never mind!

Who can blame him when Lin Yaoguang is his biological father!

If we can't move it, then let's smash it!

Just as he was about to step forward and retrieve the sack, the door behind him was suddenly flung open.

"Dad, it's all my fault. I failed to give Ah Shui a son. I'm not blessed enough for him to succeed. Blame me if you want, hit me if you want!"

Ye Wanqing rushed out of the room wearing shorts and a short-sleeved shirt. Her hair was disheveled, and she opened her arms to block Lin Shuisheng's view. Her eyes were filled with tears, which then welled up and slid down her cheeks.

"You...you're still in your postpartum period! What are you doing out here? Go back inside right now!"

Lin Yaoguang stared wide-eyed at his new bride Ye Wanqing, momentarily at a loss for what to do.

Hearing his words, Ye Wanqing didn't say anything, but silently shed tears, trying her best to open her arms and stand firmly in place.

"Alright, alright, I'll let him off this time, but next time, you can't protect him again."

Seeing Ye Wanqing like this, Lin Yaoguang's anger turned into helplessness. He threw down the broom, hurriedly said a few words, and then turned and walked out in a bad mood.

Really is,

Is his new bride perhaps drugged by that good-for-nothing son?

Why did they protect her so recklessly?

"What's wrong? What happened? Ah Shui, why is Ah Qing crying after coming out of her room?"

At this moment, Chen Xiurong, who had heard the commotion, ran over from the east room of the back hall. When she saw Ye Wanqing standing at the door with tears streaming down her face, she was momentarily stunned.

Just as she thought Lin Shuisheng had returned in the middle of the night and somehow made Ye Wanqing cry,

Li Chanjuan ran out of the house on the left across the street, whispered a few words in her ear, and her face instantly darkened. Then she grabbed a broom from the ground and rushed out.

"Ouch! Ah Rong, are you crazy? How dare you hit me with a broom?"

"I'm beating you up, you old lecher! How dare you stand outside the bride's room and start cursing?"

"No, listen to me, I just wanted to teach that bastard Ah Shui a lesson, who would have thought Ah Qing would show up?"

"Ouch! That's enough! If you dare hit me again, don't blame me for being rude!"

"Go ahead and show me what you've done. I'm going back to my parents' house first thing tomorrow morning to tell my brothers what a good deed you've done, and see if they come looking for you."

"I was wrong, I know I was wrong. Don't shout so loudly, it's not good if someone hears us, it'll be bad for the noodle maker."

"So you know how to peel noodles now? What were you doing all this time? And you dare say you were being rude to me? I think you're getting more and more senile with age!"

"Yes, yes, it was my mistake. Could you put the broom down first? It's pitch black outside, you might slip and fall."

"Hmph! If there's a next time, see how I deal with you!"

Soon, Chen Xiurong returned to the front hall with a broom, and without saying a word, pulled Ye Wanqing into the room, while also glaring at Lin Shuisheng.

Lin Yaoguang followed behind with a sullen expression. When he entered the gate and saw Lin Chaosheng, Lin Haisheng and others covering their mouths and snickering, he immediately glared at them fiercely.

This time, he completely lost face.
