Chapter 701: Bent on clinging to them

” Where were you?” Nowadays Old Madam Lin was having the worst time of her life, as much as she wanted to sit back and rest, the gods were simply being too harsh on them for the sake of saving her son from being thrown into Yamen for years, she sold more than ten mu of land and was now left with less than four mu.          

Their family has gone from being the richest family in the village to the poorest in just the span of a few months, now Old madam Lin really hoped that her son would stop finding trouble with those dodgy people and simply start working hard in the fields but no matter how much she hoped her son was still lazy as ever, this morning she rushed him to the fields hoping that he will take care of the weeds but instead of taking care of the weeds and sowing the seeds that she has soaked for an entire night, he ran off to play with one of his sketchy friends.      

When Old madam Lin went to deliver lunch to Lin Ze and Lin Che expecting them to work hard in the fields she was stunned to find that the field was left as it was before and neither her son nor grandson could be found in the end she had to bully Lin Yunxi to take care of the weeds.      

But her granddaughter was no simpleton either, she fought with her behind closed doors and didn’t even agree to lift a finger until she agreed to weed the field along with her in the end, Old madam Lin had no choice but to go to the fields herself.      

When she returned home tired and hungry, she found out that all the food that she prepared for the family went down Lin Che’s throat, she was so angry that she beat her precious grandson with her broom. It was one thing for him to eat his portion but how dare he eat her portion as well?      

But before she could deal with Lin Che seriously the latter ran away and didn’t return home till now, he didn’t return but Lin Ze did and the second her gaze fell on her pathetic son, the anger she was storing in her heart burst forth. Why? Why was it that when those good for nothings separated from their house, they got better and better but now that it was their turn, her son couldn’t even work hard enough to earn ten copper coins forget about getting ten taels!     

” Oww!” Lin Ze screamed in pain when Old woman Lin hurled her broom at him, he blinked his eyes and dodged his mother’s attacks but he couldn’t do it for long. In the end, he was hit in the back harshly causing him to yelp out loud as he hopped on a spot. ” Why are you hitting me like that? Do you know I returned home with an excellent plan !”      

” I do not wish to hear any of your brilliant plans,” said old woman Lin as she threw her broom on the floor, now she was no longer the same woman who would find trouble with anyone just because she wanted to, it wasn’t that she let go of her crooked ways but now she spent more than three days with hungry stomach or maybe more until her stomach started to hurt.      

With a hungry stomach, where will she get the energy to create trouble for others? These days she worried more about whether she would get to eat a meal the next day or not where will she get the time to plan against anyone?     

” But this one is the best one,” Lin Ze insisted as he chased after his mother who was walking towards her room, he immediately caught hold of her arm and told her about what Tai Zheng had told him, hoping that she will agree with him but instead he received a smack on his face, that was so hard that it made him stagger.      

” Mother, you hit me?” Lin Ze was so stunned that he couldn’t believe what just happened, if not for the sharp sting on his left cheek, he would have thought that he was dreaming.      

Old madam Lin stared at him before she gave him a stern look and said, ” Ah Ze, Ah Ze …what do I have to do for you to understand that we can’t go against those white-eyed wolves, every time you tried to scheme against them, we were the ones who ended up getting in trouble. You wanted to get hold of their weakness earlier too and what happened? They sent you to the yamen. Why not stay at home and do your own thing…now?”      

” Mother, you are forgiving them just like that?” Lin Ze was extremely disappointed with his mother, he thought that she will agree with his suggestion at once but instead of agreeing she was asking him to not go along with the plan for what?      

” Who says that I have forgiven them?” hissed old madam Lin with a disgruntled look on her face. ” I have of course not forgiven them at all, oh how I wish that bitch of theirs would fall in a ditch and lose that child but I also know that I can’t do anything to them, they are not as easy to control as they were before, listen to me Ah Ze and stay away from their family.” With that she turned around and walked inside the room, rubbing her hungry stomach as she closed the door behind her.     

How can Lin Ze forget it so easily? He was still dreaming of earning those two hundred taels, as long as he could get his hands on that plan of the doll house, he will be able to lead the life that he wants to! There was no way he was going to just ignore this suggestion that Tai Zheng has given him, he will surely go and look for Zhang Xiaohui as soon as he can!
