My Beloved Super Fierce Wife-Chapter 122: Master and the Senior Worker
Chapter 122: Master 122 and the Senior Worker
Li Xiuli’s spirit heightened in an instant, her eyes becoming exceptionally determined.
A smile tugged at her lips uncontrollably.
"What’s the trouble with that? You just leave it to mom, I’ll make sure it’s done perfectly for you."
Lin Tang said with a smile, "Mmm, thank you, Mom."
After speaking, she gave her mother the recipes for the meat sauce, bean sauce, and spicy sauce.
Li Xiuli reached out to take them, her heart pounding with excitement.
Inexplicably, she just had this feeling.
Her daughter’s words must be right!
Thinking of the boys at home that Tangtang always worried about, Li Xiuli had already decided in her heart to have a serious talk with them once she got back.
She would never let her daughter be wronged.
After seeing her parents off, Lin Tang went to the factory to work.
Lin Lu and Li Xiuli, carrying a patched cloth bag, walked briskly towards the brigade.
The couple had just seen their daughter and had a bowl of noodles, filling them with energy.
They arrived at the brigade before nine o’clock.
Just entering the village, they happened upon Lin Fu who was just about to go to the brigade office.
Seeing his younger brother and sister-in-law, Lin Fu smiled.
"How’s Tangtang doing? Is she getting accustomed to everything?" he asked with concern.
The people in the brigade who needed to go to the county had to get a letter of introduction, so Lin Fu naturally knew that Lin Lu and Li Xiuli had gone to the county to see their niece.
Lin Lu’s face beamed with happiness, his words filled with pride.
"She’s doing great, looking a lot more spirited. Tangtang even brought you a gift..."
Lin Fu had been somewhat annoyed by his smugness.
But the moment he heard that his niece had brought a gift for him, his expression instantly changed.
The face that was usually stern now looked much gentler.
"...It’s so kind of Tangtang to think of me."
Li Xiuli took a bottle of medicinal wine out of the patched cloth bag and handed it to him, saying with a smile:
"Big brother is Tangtang’s close uncle; of course, she would think of you, isn’t that right?"
The bottle containing the medicinal wine was exchanged from Lin Tang’s system space.
It didn’t look big, but the actual capacity was quite decent.
The bottle was covered with a grey powder, perfectly suiting the aesthetic of the era.
"What’s this?" Lin Fu took it, full of curiosity.
A strong desire to share welled up inside Lin Lu.
This question from Lin Fu was scratching right where he itched.
With a slight tilt of his head and indescribable pride, he said:
"This is medicinal wine, made by Tangtang herself.
Your sister-in-law and I had a sip, oh my goodness, it’s truly effective.
Big brother, you know how severe the pain in my legs is.
Drinking this wine makes the legs feel warm, it’s incredibly comforting."
Lin Fu was aware of his younger brother’s chronic leg pain.
Why did the younger brother end up with this problem? It was from saving someone.
And why did he save someone? It was because he, as the newly appointed Captain, desperately needed to ’establish his authority.’
Back when the reservoir collapsed, Liu Dazhu almost got swept away by the water.
So many people were watching, but no one dared to go down to rescue him.
It was only the younger brother, thinking that not going down to save someone would look bad on him, the Captain.
So he resolutely jumped into the water to save the man.
It was winter by that time.
The man was saved, but the younger brother ended up with a lifelong ailment.
Lin Fu had seen with his own eyes how his younger brother couldn’t stand upright because of the pain in his legs during the first couple of years.
After being tended to for three to five years, he slowly began to recover.
Seeing his younger brother talk so contentedly about the medicinal wine, Lin Fu’s heart trembled, his eyes filled with concerned anticipation.
"...Younger brother, are you telling the truth? Do you really feel your legs warming up? You’re not deceiving me, are you?"
At Lin Tang’s place, both Lin Lu and Li Xiuli were shocked by how effective the medicinal wine was.
They hadn’t discussed the specifics of its benefits.
Now, Li Xiuli found out the wine actually had a significant effect on her husband’s legs.
She became excited:
"Husband, do you really think this wine is good for your legs?"
Actually, Lin Lu’s legs had gotten much better over the years.
Compared to the previous intermittent pain, now it only hurt when the weather changed.
But.
Li Xiuli was Lin Lu’s bedfellow and knew how much he had suffered because of his legs; it worried her terribly.
Seeing his wife’s urgency, Lin Lu nodded.
"It really works."
Upon hearing this, Lin Fu’s expression relaxed as well.
He gave Lin Lu a hearty slap on the shoulder and said with a laugh, "Well then! Little brother, are you saying that this was made by Tangtang herself?"
Lin Lu straightened his back, affirming, "...Indeed, it was made by Tangtang."
He had great confidence in his daughter.
If Tangtang said she made it herself, then she definitely did.
Lin Fu raised his fist and hit Lin Lu’s shoulder again, envy oozing from every pore.
"Little brother is truly blessed."
It just proved that old saying: whatever doesn’t trip a person up will ultimately make them incredibly strong.
This was exactly the case with Tangtang.
Lin Lu chuckled, "I am indeed blessed."
Seeing his brother’s foolishly grinning face, Lin Fu shook his head with resignation and took the bottle of medicinal wine back home.
This was a gift from his niece, and he couldn’t let those in the office get their eyes on it.
No sooner had he left than Lin Lu immediately took Li Xiuli to the old mansion.
Just in time to catch his parents before they went off to work, to deliver the medicinal wine.
As the couple entered the front door of the old mansion, Lin Xiuyuan and Zhao Shuzhen were just about to leave.
Zhao Shuzhen, upon seeing them arrive, blurted out, "Second brother, second brother’s wife, why have you come?"
Lin Xiuyuan, helpless against his straightforward wife, revealed a helpless smile on his face.
"...Let’s go inside to talk."
With that, he pulled Zhao Shuzhen back into the house.
No sooner had they entered the room.
Lin Xiuyuan asked, "How is Tangtang doing?"
He was cultured and of a slender build.
Sitting beside Lin Lu, they looked nothing like father and son.
Rather, they seemed more like... the young master of a landlord’s family and a longtime servant of the household.
They were not of the same air.
Nor the same looks.
Lin Fu, Lin Lu, and Lin Shou, the three brothers, didn’t resemble Lin Xiuyuan—it was Zhao Shuzhen’s symmetry and grandeur they inherited in their facial features.
Only Lin Anan bore a slight resemblance to Lin Xiuyuan.
Even that slight resemblance was enough to make her beauty surpass many others.
Lin Tang was unanimously recognized by the entire Lin Family as both beautiful and intelligent.
But her beauty was of a delicate type, like that of a porcelain doll, with finely crafted facial features.
Her eyes were large but not intimidating, the corners slightly downturned, giving her an innocuous look.
Her pupils were very black, and her eyelashes were long.
When her eyes bent, they were like stars sewn into them, clear and bright.
Her face was a classical oval, with a small and refined nose, and her lips were red without the need for makeup.
She had been a beauty from a young age.
And Lin Xiuyuan, he had deep and bright eyes, pronounced facial features, and a handsome bone structure.
Upon a closer look, Lin Tang and Lin Xiuyuan didn’t resemble each other much.
But perhaps there was a commonality found in all beautiful people.
Both had fair skin and attractive brows and eyes.
It made people believe that Lin Tang was the only younger relative who had inherited Lin Xiuyuan’s good looks.
Back to the matter at hand.
After hearing Lin Xiuyuan’s question, Lin·Laborer·Lu honestly replied, "...Tangtang is doing well."
Zhao Shuzhen, seeing that they weren’t getting to the point and being in a hurry to go to work, directly asked:
"Why have you come over here?"
Li Xiuli, knowing her mother-in-law’s straightforward nature and dislike for beating around the bush,
took out a bottle of medicinal wine and placed it on the table.
"This is medicinal wine that Tangtang made herself; she asked me and the man of the house to bring a bottle for dad and mom."
