Chapter 111: Chapter 110: The Plan
Aunt Jin also had red eyes from crying, "Lin Xia! Things have turned out well this time! Baoyuan and Lin Chun will be in the same place, they can look out for each other in the future!"
"Yes! This time my big brother managed to make it! We also need to thank Uncle Jin and you!" Lin Xia reiterated her gratitude.
She was especially thankful for them, as without Uncle Jin’s acquaintance, her big brother might not have been so lucky to be recruited.
"What’s there to thank for! We’re just neighbors living next door!" Aunt Jin waved her hand, kindly reminding her, "Lin Xia! If your dad finds out your big brother left, he will definitely make a fuss! You all be careful!"
What do they, as neighbors, not know about Old Lin’s temperament?
"Thank you, Aunt Jin! We’ll be cautious! We’ll come to visit you at your house when we find a chance!"
"Better not for now! Let’s wait until things calm down a bit before we talk about it!" Aunt Jin also feared that if Lin Xia and her family were seen visiting her home, people might guess that Lin Chun’s departure was related to them.
Lin Xia understood, she replied with a smile, "Then that’s settled! We’ll wait for the future!"
After separating from Aunt Jin and her husband, they returned home, feeling a mix of happiness and sadness at the sight of their big brother’s absence.
They knew that their big brother leaving was a good thing, yet they couldn’t help but worry.
Lin Xia felt it even more deeply, she hoped her big brother’s departure would alter the fate of his early demise from her past life, but who knew what it would be like over there? The job wasn’t without dangers either.
But isn’t that just what life is about? If it’s really your fate, no one can do anything about it.
Lin Xia comforted herself; if she could go back to the past, her big brother’s fate could certainly change too.
"Sis, do you think our big brother’s personality could change?" Lin Qiu asked while sitting on the kang, pondering if it really could change, that would be great.
Lin Xia smiled confidently, "Of course it can change! When he returns, he will surely impress us all!"
After chatting for a while, Lin Dong seriously said to them, "Big sister, second sister! Now that our big brother has left, and I have to return to school tomorrow, can you two manage living here by yourselves?
Should I check if I can commute daily? What if he comes here?"
He was really afraid that Lin Aiguo might come while he was not at home, and his sisters would end up getting severely beaten.
With their big brother gone, he was now the only man in the house, so he had to protect his two sisters.
"Dongzi, even if you could commute, you wouldn’t be home during the day, who knows when he might suddenly come over?"
Lin Xia then formally shared her plan with them, "So I’m thinking, always being on guard is no way to live... If we want to avoid a direct confrontation, it’s better to move to the city. That way, it’ll be harder for him to find us."
Now that her big brother had left, even though Lin Aiguo would have no recourse even if he found out, once he did find them, his rage would be extremely fierce, surely wanting nothing less than to peel their skin off.
If it really came down to a fight, they were his children regardless, and she could brandish a knife and fight him without care, as she didn’t mind what others said.
But her younger brother and sister couldn’t do the same. Xiaoqiu would eventually need to marry and speak well of her in-laws, and Dongzi still needed to pass his exams; they both needed a good reputation.
Lin Dong’s eyes lit up, "That’s a good idea!" He then looked at Lin Qiu and asked, "But what about second sister’s job? She only just started this job a month ago."
Lin Xia expressed regret, "Then she’ll just have to quit!" She looked at Lin Qiu, "Xiaoqiu, but don’t worry, once we settle down in the city, I’ll help you find something else to do!
If we can come across an experienced tailor, we could pay them to teach you as well..."
Speak when the time is right. Originally, she thought of sending Lin Qiu to the bedding factory for two reasons: one was to avoid encountering that scumbag at the soy sauce factory, and the other was to let Lin Qiu learn a bit about the trade.
But now, she can’t continue at the bedding factory any longer, so there’s no hesitation needed.
However, knowing her sister’s temper, she was worried she might get upset about something again.
Lin Qiu didn’t want to become a burden, and she quickly expressed, "Sis! Don’t worry about me. Focus on finding a house first. It’s not like houses are easy to find!"
"Actually, I felt embarrassed to tell you when I came back, I wasn’t really learning anything in the cutting department. I was just doing odd jobs. Plus, every time I run into Xu Haihua, she always creates some drama which is so annoying!"
"Okay! I’ll go look for a house tomorrow!"
Lin Xia thought about it, and since Lin Dong was at home, he would need to go back to school early the next morning. It might be a good idea to take him along to return the household register to the Lin Family.
Previously, she was worried about complications if they returned it too early, so she hadn’t done so. But now that her older brother had left, there was nothing to worry about; it was better to just return it.
"Then Xiaoqiu will stay at home, and Dongzi will come with me to return the household register! If someone is at home, we’ll think of another plan!"
"Okay!" Lin Dong happily agreed, as he could protect his big sister if they encountered anyone during the visit.
Lin Xia and her brother Lin Dong each rode a bicycle to the Lin Family’s house. Upon reaching the gate and seeing it was locked, they exchanged a knowing smile.
Lin Dong whispered, "Big sis! No one’s here!"
"Let’s be quick!" Lin Xia had chosen this time hoping that no one would be home, and luckily, there really was no one.
Lin Xia entered the courtyard with Lin Dong, parked their bicycles, and headed straight for the house.
Lin Dong, braver than Lin Chun, saw Lin Xia using a small axe to pry open the lock and asked, "Sis! Do you need me to do it?"
"No need!"
Lin Xia skillfully placed the household register back, then nailed the lock back on.
They had just walked out of the house when suddenly, someone rammed the gate open with a vehicle wheel.
Both Lin Xia and Lin Dong’s hearts skipped a beat, but when they saw it was Chunli coming in, they both breathed a sigh of relief.
They hadn’t expected Chunli to get off work so early, but they exchanged glances and faced her unafraid, pushing their bicycles as if nothing had happened.
The reason Chunli got off work early and came home was that she had a stomachache. Seeing the unlocked gate, she initially thought it might be Lin Aiguo or one of his children returning home;
However, when she saw Lin Xia and Lin Dong just coming out of the house, she was momentarily stunned. Then an idea struck her, and she immediately knew what they had come for.
A few days ago, she had been worried about this household registration issue and didn’t know whether Lin Chun had sorted it out or not. Now, seeing the expressions on these two kids, she knew for sure it had been taken care of!
But she still pretended to be oblivious, pushing her bicycle inside and exclaimed, "Lin Xia! Lin Dong! You finally came back! Where are you staying now, and why haven’t you been home?"
Lin Xia and Lin Dong coldly glanced at Chunli, treating her words like a dog’s fart, and silently pushed their bicycles past her without a word.
Chunli dropped the facade, her expression turning cold as she watched them leave the gate. She spat on the ground and muttered under her breath, "Hmph! Look at you getting all smug!"
