NovelEnglishChapter 507
Eldest Sister-in-law used every last bit of her strength to bite back the retort, “Are you serving your in-laws like this?” But she didn’t have the nerve to actually say that. Instead, she just thought that if Lin Lan was here, she would definitely have her back.
Naturally, Gumi couldn’t think of this. She only heard the Youngest Aunt complaining that her Third Aunt-in-law had driven Officer Sun away and her mother was scolded and beaten because of it. She decided that it was Lin Lan’s fault that her mother was constantly scolded.
It was inevitable for a child to complain like that.
Naturally, Lin Lan didn’t stoop as low as to argue with a child’s opinions, but she did feel a bit sad in her heart. It hurt because she usually treated Gumi quite well, but she could see that it was all for naught.
Lin Lan spoke up, “Okay then, everything’s all right now.”
She took Erwang and left.

Walking along the road, Erwang said angrily, “Mother, I thought she was a good person, but in the end, she’s talking like this as well— how annoying.”
Lin Lan said, “It’s not her fault either, children tend to imitate whatever the adults say. She doesn’t go to school and doesn’t acquire any knowledge, so naturally she would not understand the truth.”
Erwang let out a soft hum but didn’t comment further. After all, the child was a bit angry.
Lin Lan took advantage of the situation and asked him to study hard again, “If you don’t study, you would end up being like Gumi. If you have the opportunity to study, you must cherish it.”
“Mother, don’t worry, I will definitely study hard and live up to your expectations,” Erwang said seriously.
Lin Lan laughed as her slight unhappiness was swept away and she took Erwang’s hand, “Come on, let’s go home and live a good life. We don’t have to care about other people’s foolishness.”
The mother and son duo laughed loudly as they raced home.
Maisui had already cleaned the main room and the fire was still burning under the pot. Seeing them coming back, Maisui told them, “Sanwang and Dawang went to the South Road to pick up my father.”
Then she asked if her Eldest Aunt-in-law was okay.
Lin Lan smiled and said, “She’s okay.”
Lin Lan then saw the bowl of rice on the stove, “Why did your Eldest Brother bring it back?”
Maisui curled her lips and said, “I guess he heard them scolding you, so he just brought it back since he was angry.”
Lin Lan didn’t say anything else.

It was already dark outside when Sanwang took his Eldest Brother to the South Road to welcome his father back, “If we come back early, we can eat ribs earlier.”
Dawang, “Whether you welcome him home or not, time won’t change.”
“How is it the same? Wouldn’t we be the ones to welcome father home before mother and the rest?” Sanwang was not convinced.
Dawang: “…” Would that enable you to eat the ribs earlier, then?
He didn’t bother to correct Sanwang because he knew that the kid would twist his logic.
Han Qingsong came back just in time and when he saw them, he stopped the bike and signalled for them to get up.
Sanwang was gearing up, “Father, let me ride it,” He had been coveting riding a bicycle for a long time, but he had no chance to touch it, so he ran out to intercept the bicycle under the pretence of picking up Han Qingsong.
