Chapter 40

The Lin Family

Lin Xiaoyue handled those who asked for a cheaper price well. She was good with her words and pretended to be pitiful.

Liu Shi stood not far away and watched her daughter handle the situation calmly. She felt gratified but also a little envious.

As a mother, she was inferior to her daughter. Looking at the way Aunt Wang was helping her, she thought that she was the one who should be helping, but she didn’t have the ability…

Thinking of this, Liu Shi was a little disappointed.

“Mom.” At this moment, the little boy pulled her hand.

Liu Shi looked down and saw her son looking at her with a smile.

She smiled and touched her son’s head, smiling warmly.

The sounds of meat cutting and chattering filled the yard. In a short amount of time, Lin Xiaoyue sold a lot of pork.

“Lin Xiaoyue, you piece of shit! Who told you to touch the Lin family’s wild boar?!” Suddenly, a sharp voice was heard.

The people who bought the pork dispersed. Her first and second aunt walked over with a few male members of the Lin family while supporting her grandmother.

“My wild boar!” Seeing that a lot of wild boar meat had been cut and sold, Grandma Lin’s heart ached, as if it was her flesh that had been cut.

Lin Xiaoyue frowned. Her wild boar? Is this old woman joking?

“You little b*tch, who told you to sell our wild boar!” Before Lin Xiaoyue could speak, Grandma Lin had already walked towards her.

Her second aunt’s eyes lit up when she saw the large amount of coins in the bowl in front of Lin Xiaoyue, and she reached out to take it.

Lin Xiaoyue’s eyes and hands were quick, and she took the bowl away.

When she took it away, all the members of the Lin family looked at the bowl.

Seeing the large amount of coins and even some silver inside, all of their eyes were filled with greed.

“Why didn’t you tell your family that you got the wild boar? Your grandma is the head of the household. Why didn’t you give her the money?” First Uncle Lin said.

“That’s right, hurry up and give the money to your grandma. Why are you so insensible? You’ll make your grandma angry later,” Second Uncle Lin chimed in.

Lin Xiaoyue frowned, as if she had heard a joke.

Then, she ungracefully dug her ears.

“Did I hear wrong?” Lin Xiaoyue looked at the Lin family sarcastically, and her tone was sharp.

“Previously, you drove us out of the house. The Lin family has nothing to do with us anymore.”

First Uncle Lin frowned and was about to speak when Lin Xiaoyue quickly added, “Since we have nothing to do with each other, why are you speaking as though we are family?”

“I earned this money myself. What does it have to do with the Lin family? There are so many villagers and elders here. Are you trying to steal from us?”

The surrounding people began to speak animatedly.

They had long known that the Lin family was ruthless towards them. They did not expect that they had really been chased out.

Now that they had finally earned some money from the wild boar, they came to steal it.

Seeing how she referred to them as “the Lin family”, although it sounded unfilial, she must have said that because she was disappointed in them.

When the Lin family members heard the criticism from the other villagers, they were upset.

Second Uncle Lin was furious. Just as he was about to scold Lin Xiaoyue, he was grabbed by his fifth brother.

“It was all a misunderstanding. No one has ever treated you like outsiders. We all miss you,” Fifth Uncle Lin stood up and said.
