Chapter 76 The Plan is Perfect
Chapter 76 The Plan is Perfect
If Lin Chuan hadn't reacted quickly, something bad would have happened.
Lin Chuan naturally wouldn't tolerate someone who threatened his safety. He slapped Zhao Yang twice, and Zhao Yang's face swelled up immediately.
Lin Chuan was holding back a bit; otherwise, he would have knocked out at least a few more teeth.
The more Lin Chuan thought about it, the angrier he became. He glared at Zhao Yang, ready to slap him a few more times.
The kid actually started sobbing. Not only did he cry, but a wet patch appeared between his legs, and a foul smell wafted straight to Lin Chuan's nose.
"Damn, what bad luck! Am I that scary?"
Lin Chuan tossed Zhao Yang onto the road.
After dealing with Zhao Yang, Lin Chuan turned to stare at Li Hui, knowing that she was the culprit.
Li Hui wasn't afraid at all, even though Lin Chuan was staring at her. Her face flushed with excitement, and when she saw Lin Chuan looking over, she smiled at him and leaned forward.
"Lin Chuan, you're so handsome! Let's mess with each other! You can do whatever you want with each other!"
As she spoke, Li Hui pulled down her collar, and a glimpse of snow-white skin instantly caught Lin Chuan's eye.
Lin Chuan's expression changed, he jumped off the tractor's hood, picked up his bicycle, and rode away.
Li Hui rubbed her thighs and leaned forward:
"Hey, don't go! I'm serious."
Hearing this, Lin Chuan rode even faster.
We have to hurry. The young man is already very energetic, and with Lin Chuan's super strong physique, if we don't move soon, he'll be saluting.
Lin Chuan only managed to calm his surging blood after riding all the way home.
"Did you get the notification letter? How did the exam go?"
As soon as Lin Chuan entered the courtyard, his mother came out and asked him somewhat nervously.
"No. 1 Middle School".
Lin Chuan handed the admission notice to his mother and ran to the kitchen to drink several cups of cold tea.
Hua Hua, Hui Hui, and Hei Hei, along with a cat and two dogs, all rubbed against Lin Chuan's feet when he returned.
These three little ones seem to have been put at ease by Lin Chuan, as they are no longer as afraid of people. They wander around the house, but they don't want to be held, except by Lin Chuan.
Lin Chuan picked up the two dogs and placed them on his lap, while holding the cat in his arms.
Lin Xue immediately came over and reached out to touch it.
"Brother, why do they want you to hold them and not me?"
"Hmm, maybe it's because I like eating meals and not snacks."
"Really?"
"Hmm, when have you ever seen a kitten or puppy eat snacks?"
Lin Xue had fed the cats and dogs cookies and candy before, and they really wouldn't eat them, so she immediately believed Lin Chuan when he said that.
After hearing Lin Chuan's words, Lin Xue's face showed a conflicted expression.
As the only child in the family, she was pampered by everyone. Lin Feng bought her more snacks that Lin Chuan had bought her before, but she hadn't finished them all.
Lin Xue has been eating a lot lately, and her appetite has decreased significantly compared to before.
But after some hesitation, Lin Xue decided to finally hold the kitten or puppy she had been longing for.
"Brother, I won't eat snacks anymore."
"You don't have to completely abstain from food, just don't eat too much. Snacking shouldn't interfere with your meals."
"Really? Will they let me hold them?"
Hearing that she could also eat snacks, Lin Xue's eyes lit up, but she was also afraid that if she ate snacks, the cats and dogs wouldn't let her hold them.
"Yes, yes, Xiaoxue is so cute. As long as you eat well for a few days, you'll definitely be able to hold them."
"Okay, then I'll eat properly."
At lunchtime, Mom looked at Lin Xue strangely, as she hadn't seen her eat so enthusiastically in a long time.
But this was a good thing, so she didn't dwell on it and turned to look at Lin Chuan:
"You're the one who ordered the wardrobe to be destroyed."
"Um."
"It looks nice, but why did you clear out all the old clothes? The closet is empty."
"Mom, our old clothes are all worn out and don't look good on us. Let's go buy some new ones, and fill up the closet."
"Who wears new clothes to work in the fields? It's a waste of money. Old clothes are still wearable. You're just messing around. I'll have to spend time looking for new ones later."
Lin Chuan buried his head in his food, and after a while he said:
"Hey, Mom, should we go see Grandpa? I should tell them I got into the top high school."
Lin's father moved down from the mountain. There are still relatives on the mountain, including Lin Chuan's grandparents and uncle.
"Lin Jiadang, we should go there. You said you got into the top high school, should we have a celebration?"
It seems to be a Chinese custom to hold a banquet for happy occasions, and getting into the top high school is certainly a happy occasion.
However, Lin Chuan dared not allow a banquet to be held. This kind of banquet is called a college entrance celebration banquet. If everyone else came to his college entrance celebration banquet and he then said he was not going to study anymore, there would be no way to handle the situation.
"Mom, let's not hold it for now. It doesn't seem right to have a banquet for a high school student."
"What's wrong with that? Others who get into the top high school can do it, so can we."
Whether or not a high school holds a banquet depends on how well students do on their exams. Those who do poorly won't hold one, but those who get into the top high school will naturally have no problem doing so.
"Mom, you said our family is so rich now, plus the money I got from the main government, it must be ten or twenty thousand, right?"
This is equivalent to ten or twenty years of income for others. Why would I still be studying this book? It takes six or seven years to finish it.
"It would be so much better if I could stay home with you instead. We're not short of money."
Lin Chuan's words weren't entirely unfounded; the average annual income of farmers is now less than a thousand yuan.
Twenty thousand yuan is definitely enough to live comfortably, and you can even make a profit in the meantime. (Not considering future developments)
"What nonsense are you talking about, child? Of course you should study if you can. You don't need to worry about money now, so just focus on your studies."
My mother thought Lin Chuan was joking and didn't take it seriously. If she knew that Lin Chuan was speaking from the heart, she wouldn't have used such a gentle tone.
After a meal, Lin Chuan finally managed to persuade his mother not to hold a banquet and to go to Linjia Dang to visit his grandparents the next day.
After lunch break, since we decided to go to Linjiadang tomorrow, my mother didn't go to the fields; she stayed home to pack.
She sent Lin Chuan and the other two to the supply and marketing cooperative to buy things to visit her parents-in-law, and they always had to bring some gifts.
Now that he had money, his mother wasn't stingy and directly gave Lin Chuan two hundred yuan.
They asked me to buy cigarettes, alcohol, fruit, meat, vegetables, snacks, and a whole bunch of other random things.
They even wanted to bring several dozen bottles of soda, since their son was strong and might as well use them.
"Mom, there's no need to buy so much. You can just give them some money later. Linjiadang is closer to the county than we are."
The road from Qiaotouwan to the county town is semi-elliptical; if you look at the map, it's actually separated from Qiaotouwan by a mountain.
It takes Lin Chuan and his group more than three hours to get to Linjiadang, but Linjiadang is actually closer to the county town.
It takes more than two hours to walk there, but there's a road leading to the county town in just half an hour, making it much more convenient for them to get there.
Lin Chuan's suggestion to go to Linjiadang was not just to visit the old man; his bigger purpose was to lure his mother out.
I'll take my mom to the county town for a big shopping spree, so she can experience the joy of spending money.
Once Mom goes to Linjiadang, and he persuades her a little more, Mom is definitely going to the county town.
The plan is perfect, now we just wait for tomorrow.
