backyard.
There were several dishes on the simple wooden table, and several people ate heartily.
"Burp~ Boss, when will the instant noodles be served? I'm already full if you don't bring it soon."
The thick-necked man buried his face in the bowl, too busy to respond to him, and kicked him.
"Old Fourth, you're really trading rice for chaff. You can't even enjoy the blessings you have. Instant noodles are no match for this table of food. If you ask me, Aunt Lin's cooking is even better than the ones in the restaurant."
"It's really great. It would be great if I could eat it every day."
No one responded after he said this, and the half-grown children fell silent at the same time.
The chicks were chirping in the chicken coop. There was a long row of jars against the wall in the backyard, with various items neatly arranged.
Although it is simple, it is the home they long for.
Thick Neck swallowed the food in his mouth and said firmly: "From now on, we will work under Aunt Lin. Aunt Lin will definitely not let us down."
"We no longer have to live like the rats on the street. We can live an upright life."
They also know in their hearts that everyone is afraid of them and hates them even more.
I used to feel great about this, especially when I saw others being angry but not being able to speak out, I felt inexplicably proud.
So what if they are orphans? They are the only ones who can bully others.
But when I entered Aunt Lin's house and finished the meal, a corner of my heart quietly loosened and cracks appeared in the camouflage shell.
It seems nice to have a home.
"Boss, we will listen to you. From now on, we will do whatever Aunt Lin tells us to do."
"Don't call me Boss anymore." Thick Neck said straightforwardly, "We brothers are ranked by age. I'm the oldest, so just call me Big Brother..."
"Are you all full? Here are some noodles."
Lin smiled and put a bowl of hot soup noodles on the table. The craftsmen outside had already returned and they wanted to drink some wine, so Lin cooked a pot of noodles first for her family to fill their stomachs.
"Is there a banquet going on outside?"
Lin was in a good mood: "Today we broke ground on the new house. Those eating outside are all craftsmen working on it. We've been busy with things at home lately, and the house will be finished in a few days."
Build a house!
Several people looked at each other with envy in their eyes.
Thick Neck knew that they were still a long way from building a house, so he suppressed his inner yearning and mustered up the courage to tell Lin about their recent decision.
Lin didn't show any surprise, but just looked at them seriously.
"You can work for me, but you have to promise me that you won't blackmail or threaten others again."
Thick Neck took the lead and said, "Don't worry, Aunt Lin, we won't do those things again."
"If we work hard in the future, it will definitely not happen again."
Afraid that Lin wouldn't believe them, several people rushed to swear. Suddenly, Lin's originally stern face smiled.
"Okay, it's settled. There's no vacant house at home right now, so you guys should find a place to live first. Once the house is built, you can decide whether to move in or not."
As it got dark, Lin urged them to go home and come back early the next morning.
The craftsmen in the yard drank happily until the moon was high in the sky.
A few boys asked the guests to be seen off, Cui Zhaozhao and Lidong cleared the table, and Lin pounded her lower back, feeling like her whole body was about to fall apart.
Because of the business that Thick Neck had brought in on a whim, and in order to supply the goods early the next morning, he urgently called two women over, lit the lights, and cut another 30 kilograms of shredded vegetables.
She still has to season fifty kilograms of shredded vegetables later, and now all Lin wants to do is lie down and rest for a while.
Just as I was about to go back to the house, I felt a figure standing by the wall in the darkness.
Lin turned her head and saw Cui Chengliang waving at her.
