Chapter 231: Chapter 231: The Wang Family’s Farce

In the evening, Lin Xue was originally supposed to return to her room to enter the space and chat with Zhang Yuan, because it had been a while since he last had time to come in.

But the little ones clung to her, wanting her to talk about the Capital City.

First, she took out the clothes she bought for her mom and grandma to try on.

Both of them were pretty tall and had nice figures, and what she bought fit perfectly. The little ones all said they looked great.

Not to mention Xiao Yun, who was looking them up and down, pondering that these were the new styles in the Capital City, and she could learn more by observing.

"Alright! You guys come here! Big Sister has brought gifts for you too! Quick! Everyone gets their share!" Lin Xue secretly took the watches out of her bag.

"What is it, Big Sister? You’re being so mysterious, what did you bring us?" Lin Xia, unlike Xiao Yun who was interested in clothing, rushed over first to ask.

"Here! This is yours! Just open it and see!" Lin Xue took one out of the five boxes and handed it to her.

Then she handed them out one by one, and after everyone received theirs, they started opening them.

"Wow... Big Sister, am I seeing this right? It’s a watch!" Lin Chuan was overjoyed.

Nobody in his class wore watches yet, so this was the first, and he could show it off again.

Compared to Lin Chuan’s excitement, Lin Shan was much calmer and more thoughtful.

While everyone was admiring and trying on their watches, he soberly said to his big sister, "Big Sister, we can’t wear these watches out, can we?"

"Xiao Shan is more considerate! Exactly! You guys! You can’t wear these watches out yet, at least not before it rains! A whole family wearing watches is too conspicuous! So just keep them safe, and we’ll talk about wearing them when it’s appropriate!" Lin Xue appreciated her little brother.

He was always steady and calm, considering matters thoroughly. When everyone else was immersed in joy, he thought of the trouble these watches might bring! Very impressive.

"Ah? Can’t wear them out? Such beautiful watches, it’s a pity we can’t show them!" Lin Chuan felt like a bucket of cold water doused him, calming him down.

The three girls didn’t say anything, only Wang Cuihua followed suit and took off her new clothes.

"These new clothes, I can’t wear them either! I have to keep them safe!"

Bai Xianglan also acted like she was facing a great enemy, taking off her new clothes and folding them carefully.

Lin Xue had a headache. In this broken era, it’s impossible to use anything good openly. If it were in the later generation, never mind a new outfit; people wouldn’t even glance at what you wore.

Watches, let alone, people wouldn’t bother wearing them. Everything was digital, just a phone, no need for a wallet.

"Mom, have you gone to see Grandma’s house after I left?" Lin Xue asked once everyone had carefully put away their gifts.

It was supposed to be a simple question, but when she asked it, everyone’s expressions turned a bit strange.

"What’s wrong? Why do you all have such expressions? Did something happen at Grandma’s house?" Lin Xue asked suspiciously.

Wang Cuihua coughed dryly, and after a while, she spoke up.

"Xiao Xue! Your two aunts acted up again, so Mom hasn’t gone to see Grandma and Grandpa for many days!" Her voice was full of helplessness.

"What’s going on? What are they making a fuss about this time?" Lin Xue frowned at the thought of those two aunts.

She knew the issues from back then well, as the original owner of her body had vivid memories of those two’s true colors.

"Big Sister, let me tell you! Those two aunts said our family helped our third uncle and often sent good food to Grandma and Grandpa but ignored them, claiming it was unfair. Last time when Mom went over, they both came over, insisting Mom find jobs for them too. They even split the fine grains and meat Mom sent to Grandma and Grandpa! It made me so angry!" Lin Xia recounted angrily.

This was something she had pieced together from what she heard from her mom.

"Doesn’t Grandma usually lock everything we send in the storeroom? Even the kids from Uncle’s family haven’t seen it! How could it be taken by the two aunts?" Lin Xue was puzzled.

Whenever they sent over snacks or tea, alcohol, and cigarettes, Grandma would carefully store them in the storeroom and lock it. For so long, the two aunts hadn’t found anything, so how could it be taken now?

"When Mom was on her way, she ran into your eldest aunt..." Wang Cuihua said softly.

"Oh, so that’s it!" Lin Xue understood. Her mom was carrying so many things to give to Grandma and Grandpa. It would have been strange if that greedy sponger had let it slide.

"Let’s go see them tomorrow! Since you haven’t been sending food over, what are Grandma and Grandpa eating?" Lin Xue didn’t need to ask to know. Surely they had returned to the previous standard of living.

Didn’t they start eating wild vegetable porridge as soon as she left? How could the family that had their food taken be doing well?

"Big Sister, don’t worry too much. Grandma and Grandpa are living with Uncle’s family. Now that both the uncle and aunt are working at the milk plant, they won’t let Grandma and Grandpa go hungry!" Lin Shan reminded his overly concerned big sister.

Lin Xue suddenly realized that she was indeed someone who worried too much, managing this and that. Before she came, didn’t they get by? They didn’t starve either.

But, "That’s different! Although the uncle and aunt have food tickets now, they also need to eat! Moreover, can one buy fine grains? I’m... I’m really angry! It took so much effort to get them back to health, who knows how their bodies have been ruined now! No way! We must go see them tomorrow! Bring lots of stuff over! I refuse to believe anything will be taken away." Lin Xue said, gritting her teeth.

"I’ll go too!"

"I’ll go too!"

"Big Sister, I’m coming with you. If anyone dares to take it, I won’t bear the name Lin if I don’t take them down!"

All the little ones stood up, insisting on tagging along.

Such bold words weren’t from Lin Chuan but from our guardian Lin Xia.

"Alright, alright! Are you guys going to start a fight? Calm down! Those two aunts cause trouble easily, it’s driving us nuts! Even Mom can’t handle it!" Wang Cuihua pressed each of them to sit down.

"Mom! If I remember correctly, you can’t handle anyone causing a ruckus!"

"Pfft..." Lin Xue, having just taken a sip of water, gloriously spat it out.

No other reason, the one who said it wasn’t Lin Xia, wasn’t anyone else, but the gentle Lin Yun herself, who had never spoken loudly before.

Moreover, when she said it, she was still so gentle. After she finished, everyone burst out laughing, yet she managed to keep her serene and gentle expression unchanged.

Wang Cuihua wasn’t angry, instead laughing loudly along with the kids, holding Xiao Cai while laughing heartily.

Bai Xianglan couldn’t help but laugh too. This granddaughter, usually so quiet, suddenly came out with this, it was totally unexpected.

"Xiao Yun! Don’t tell jokes like that while your sister is drinking water, I can’t handle it!" Lin Xue put her hand on Lin Yun’s shoulder, unable to stop laughing.

Seeing everyone in the room laughing, Lin Yun finally couldn’t hold it and burst into a bright smile.

Lin Xue was momentarily stunned; indeed... our girl has grown up!
