Lin Lan laughed and pulled out her hand, “I’ll serve you the dishes.”
After Han Qingsong washed his face, he said, “I’ll go over for a bit, but I’ll be back in a while.”
Hearing what he said, Lin Lan replaced the large bowl with a big but shallow bowl. After all, he was going to return for dinner, so she was going to leave some more for him.
She served a bowl of vegetables and placed a few tail bones, pig liver and a large clump of pig blood on top. She also handed him a packet of mooncakes.
Han Qingsong took them and left, “You guys can eat first, don’t wait for me.”

At the Old Man Han’s house, without Han Qingsong’s allowance, Old Lady Han was even more stingy.
During the Mid-Autumn Festival, not only did they not buy mooncakes and apples, they didn’t even seem to eat proper meals.
The Eldest sister-in-law Han only said that frying a plate of eggs would give them a change of pace when Old Lady Han broke out into a fit.
“Jinbao is suffering, so what kind of Mid-Autumn Festival are we celebrating? We’re not even reunited, so what are we celebrating?” Old Lady Han was saddened every day and she wasn’t courteous to anyone, yelling at everybody upon first sight, “Are you guys happy now? This is in line with your wishes, isn’t it? You guys don’t have to waste money, work points or food on him anymore; even these eggs are all for you!”
Old Man Han merely smoked silently.
The Eldest Brother Han, “Mother, why are you so angry? It’s a holiday.”
Second Brother Han sneered, “Brother, it’s a festive celebration and the Third Family has built a big brick house. Yet, they can’t bear to have us move in nor can they bear the thought of us celebrating it there. What about our parents? Were they not even going to invite our father and mother? Once they divided their families, there were no other family relations in their eyes.”
The Eldest Brother Han, “What are you talking about? Festive celebrations are always held in the old houses or the parent’s houses. Since when have we ever changed that?”
Han Jinyu snorted, “I think Second Brother is right— she must have instigated it.”
Second sister-in-law Han, “I heard that Old Three had bought a lot of meat, but he didn’t even come to bring us some?”
The children all said that their Third Uncle didn’t come.

The Eldest Brother Han was embarrassed, “We didn’t help them erect the beams. Seven or eight people helped, but there was just one pig head. Just splitting it amongst them is less than you might think.”
Old Lady Han began to cry and wipe her tears again. The fourth child was arrested, the third child was taken away by that sly fox and the remaining two were useless.
The Eldest sister-in-law was in charge of cooking. There were no vegetables in the vegetable garden this season, so there were only pumpkins and dried beans at home. Other than that, there was some farmhouse sauce as well. However, there was no meat and the old lady wouldn’t even let her make eggs, so their living conditions were pretty bad.
Compared with the Third Family, it was really a situation of Heaven and Hell!
That day, Lin Lan divided the meat and gave the biggest share to them, saying that the old couple and the grandchildren should have more to eat.
Nevertheless, the Eldest sister-in-law Han was so angry that she brought it back and secretly gave it to her children. If she gave it to the old lady, it would be the Second Brother and the Fourth Aunt who would have it all. Her children wouldn’t even be able to have a taste of the meat at all.
