Chapter 174
"Yes, that's true." Shi Yu scratched his head awkwardly.

Shi Yu was at a loss for words, feeling helpless and depressed about climbing the snow-covered mountains of Taihang.

Yu Feiwan glanced at Shi Yu, picked up his schoolbag and walked out.

Returning home was as fast as an arrow, and several people subconsciously speeded up their pace home.

Unfortunately, there is no one they miss so much at home.

Several people couldn't help but feel disappointed and worried.

"Grandma, haven't your parents come back?"

The old lady shook her head, a little absent-minded, and looked sideways at the gate of the courtyard from time to time.

"Perhaps there is a queue, or there is an increase in inspection items, which delays time."

Yu Feiwan frowned imperceptibly and spoke in a warm voice, as if he was explaining to himself or comforting the rest of the family.

In an era when communications were underdeveloped, it was really worrying.

I miss the convenience of being able to video chat even though we are thousands of miles apart.

As soon as you have enough money, you must install a phone at home as soon as possible.

Yu Feiwan has small goals in mind.

The old lady pursed her lips, as if to reassure herself, and echoed, "I think so."

The atmosphere at lunch was unusually quiet.

Until a familiar yet annoying voice sounded outside the courtyard door.

"mother."

"Mother-in-law."

Wang Qinxiu leaned against the courtyard door with a flattering smile on her face.

Lin Qingshan has the tobacco stick that never leaves his hand on his waist. He looks tall from a distance, but his back is subconsciously hunched, his head is drooped, and his rough palms are unconsciously rubbing the corners of his clothes.
You can vaguely see a scar on Lin Qingshan's cheek.

The old lady was unhappy at first, but when she saw the person coming, she became furious.

The old lady frowned tightly, "What are you doing here?"

"It's only been so long now that you've forgotten the conditions you agreed to."

Wang Qinxiu tentatively crossed the courtyard gate with greedy eyes and a smiling face: "Mother-in-law, Qingshan and I are not here to make trouble. Qingshan has been working as a small worker in the contracting team these days, mixing mud, moving bricks and erecting structures. He has earned a few dollars, so he just follows People inquired about the location and hurriedly tried to send it over, so as not to delay the child's study and growth."

Those sneaky eyes kept scanning the small courtyard, salivating.

This yard is really spacious and beautiful.

However, she didn't come here just to see the courtyard.

Wang Qinxiu was worried that Yu Shuishan and Li Lan would treat Lin Haihong equally.

The old lady glanced at Wang Qinxiu and said, "Are you afraid that Haihong won't be able to go to school?"

"The heart of a villain measures the belly of a gentleman."

As soon as the old lady's words came out, Wang Qinxiu's heart dropped to the ground.

Lin Qingshan followed Wang Qinxiu, took out a few crumpled banknotes from his pocket, and gave them to the old lady with both hands. "Mom, you keep these first."

The calluses on Lin Qingshan's palms became much thicker, and there were also some new blisters and scratches.

The old lady's annoyance ended abruptly when she saw the scarred palms and a long red scar on her dark cheek.

"What's wrong with you?"

The old lady did not take the money immediately, but spoke calmly, suppressing her heartache and pretending to be normal.

Lin Qingshan wiped his face nonchalantly and said with a smile, "After so many years, people have become lazy and useless, and they are useless at everything they do."

"When the contractor team was demolishing the back wall, I accidentally got scratched. It's no big deal. I'm used to it now."

"Mom, I'm already old. I have a wife and children. I just have a scar on my face. It won't be a problem."

There was dirt between Lin Qingshan's fingernails. He wanted to put the money into the old lady's hand regardless, but he was afraid of soiling the old lady's neat clothes, so he had to stand there awkwardly.

The old lady felt sad for a while.

When the child is ignorant, she is angry with him and laments his misfortune.The child suddenly woke up, and she couldn't help but feel distressed.

The old lady took the money, unfolded it one by one, raised her eyebrows and said, "Haihong is here, you can rest assured."

"Haihong has safely enrolled in school and will not be delayed."

The old lady did not explain the current situation in too much detail, fearing that Wang Qinxiu might have thoughts that Long Wangshu should not have.

"Don't worry, don't worry." Lin Qingshan smiled coquettishly.

"Mom, Qin Xiu and I will go back first."

Lin Qingshan glared at Wang Qinxiu without leaving any trace.

Wang Qinxiu curled her lips in displeasure, sat on the empty chair and said with envy, "Mother-in-law, this yard is really beautiful. Look at the pavilion, it's all well-organized."

"When will Qingshan and I enjoy such a blessing?"

"Hai Hong, come here and let mom take a look."

Wang Qinxiu waved to Lin Haihong, who had been standing silently under the eaves.

Lin Haihong pursed his lips, lowered his eyes, then gritted his teeth and walked towards Wang Qinxiu with both hands and feet.

Wang Qin Xiuzai looked at Lin Haihong carefully, her calculating eyes shining brightly.

Apparently, he didn't suffer.

"Mom." Lin Haihong said softly.

There was trembling and anticipation deep in his voice.

He hoped that his mother would not make him ashamed to stand in this small courtyard.

"Just recognize me as your mother."

Wang Qinxiu leaned forward, lowered her voice and whispered, "Have you paid attention to what mom told you?"

"Studying is important, but now you have a better and more important opportunity to get ahead than studying. While studying, you must also seize that opportunity."

"You have also seen that your father is working hard to make money. You child must know how to be grateful and filial."

Lin Haihong's eyes flashed slightly, feeling sad in his heart.

No nods, no shakes.

But his eyes were as cold as the moon, and he listened quietly to Wang Qinxiu's nonsense.

Wang Qinxiu was angry and out of habit wanted to reach out and pinch Lin Haihong's arm hard.

"Wang Qinxiu!" The old lady who was always paying attention here hit the ground hard with her cane.

Wang Qinxiu's hand froze in mid-air in embarrassment.

Lin Qingshan also had a dark face and pulled Lin Haihong over.

"Mom, where is Shuishan?"

"Why don't you see him at home?"

Lin Qingshan’s original intention was just to ease the atmosphere.

The old lady glanced at Wang Qinxiu with disgust and said coldly, "I'm going to the hospital."

"It's nothing, just go back first."

"There are a lot of things at home, so I don't have much time to entertain you."

Wang Qinxiu seemed to be unable to read her eyes. She sat motionless on her chair, her wishful thinking ringing loudly in her heart: "Mother-in-law, how about Qingshan and I stay here to take care of the whole family?"

"There must always be a pillar of support in this family."

"After Shuishan is discharged from the hospital, Qingshan and I will go back."

"You old and young, I'm really worried that you can't take care of yourselves."

The old lady couldn't bear it and hit Wang Qinxiu's arm with her cane, saying bluntly, "If you go back on your word and don't abide by the words you made a few days ago, you can take Haihong back now."

"The temple is too small to accommodate the big Buddha."
