Rebirth or let the ungrateful wolf be born

It was already nine o'clock in the evening when Lin Musen and his ex-wife returned home. The night was getting darker, and the moonlight was shining on the street, making it seem particularly peaceful. The two walked into the house silently, feeling a little heavy.

Father Lin was still sitting on the sofa watching TV. He would watch TV until 10 o'clock every day before going back to his room to sleep, and today was no exception. The news was playing on the TV, and the sound was particularly clear in the quiet night.

Lin Musen asked softly, "Dad, has Mom gone to bed?" He was just asking casually and didn't expect a definite answer.

However, Lin's father told him honestly: "I didn't rest, I was angry in the room!" He answered smoothly, but his eyes never left the TV screen, as if the answer was not important.

But this sentence was like a stone thrown into a lake, causing ripples. Lin Musen and his ex-wife looked at each other, with a trace of worry and confusion in their eyes. They stopped and stood in the middle of the living room, not knowing what to do.

Lin Musen couldn't help but ask again, "Mom is angry? Why?" He was full of concern, because since he came back, he had never seen Old Lady Lin so sulky. Usually, she would express her dissatisfaction directly.

The whole living room fell into silence, with only the sound from the TV continuing to play. Lin Musen and his ex-wife stood quietly, waiting for his father's answer.

Old Man Lin was watching TV and answered absentmindedly, "When I went to look for you guys to come back for dinner, I found you guys were having a great time outside! When she came back, she was so angry that she went straight back inside without even eating."

Old man Lin didn't seem to care about this matter. He just said it in a matter-of-fact way without thinking. However, young Jiang Jie was displeased when she heard this. She thought that this old lady was really hard to change her nature and always liked to interfere with other people's lifestyles. In her memory, this old lady has always been like this, firmly controlling her life and making her unable to be free for half her life. She originally thought that the old lady would change after returning this time, but she didn't expect that she was still the same deep in her heart.

Lin Musen became nervous when he saw his ex-wife was angry. He secretly regretted that he had already persisted until the last day, and there shouldn't be any more conflicts. Who knew that if he was not careful and let down his guard for a while, problems would arise again.

"Jie'er, don't think too much. I think maybe Mom accidentally cooked too much. We were too excited when we went out just now and forgot to tell her that she didn't need to prepare meals for us." Lin Musen comforted his wife while explaining for his mother.

"Okay, I get it. I'm not angry. It's normal for my mother to do this. Well, you guys take your time eating. I'm a little tired. I'll go back to my room and rest for a while." Jiang Jie said expressionlessly, then turned and went back to the bedroom, leaving the Lin family father and son looking at her departing back in surprise.

Only then did Old Man Lin realize that he had been so busy watching TV that he had said things that his ex-daughter-in-law should not have heard, and he couldn't help but feel regretful.

"Is she angry? Did I say anything wrong?" Old Man Lin frowned and asked Lin Musen in a low voice, feeling extremely scared. He was afraid that his wife would know that his words had made his ex-daughter-in-law angry, and then she would nag him endlessly.

Lin Musen looked at Old Man Lin with displeasure, feeling very angry: "What do you think?"

Old Man Lin looked at his son guiltily and sighed helplessly: "Don't tell your mother, otherwise I won't have peace at home in the future." He knew that if his wife heard about this, the family would be in chaos.

Lin Musen didn't bother to pay attention to his heartless father and pushed open the door of Mrs. Lin's room. Mrs. Lin was not sleeping in the room, but leaning against the head of the bed, concentrating on watching the short video on her mobile phone. She saw her son coming in, but she didn't even raise her head.

"Mom, let me tell you something. Tomorrow we are going to the city to find Chen Yuanyuan. She is back." Lin Musen said to his mother in a relaxed manner. This sentence had been lingering in his mind. He hoped that this topic would help his mother calm down, and at the same time allow him to continue to live in peace with his ex-wife.

After hearing this, Mrs. Lin really put down her phone and showed a surprised smile on her face: "Really? I was wondering why you guys went out to eat for no reason! So that's how it is!"

Lin Musen nodded and said softly, "Yes, when I came back and told Jie'er about it, she was very happy and wanted to go out with me to celebrate. After all, this matter has been bothering us for so long. I took her out just to make her happy and to get things done smoothly tomorrow." Old Mrs. Lin smiled and nodded, indicating that she understood her son's approach.

"So don't be angry about us going out to eat today, and don't blame Jie'er." Lin Musen whispered to his mother again, without mentioning Lin's father at all.

"Nonsense, when have I ever been angry? Don't worry, I won't ignore Jie'er. I still know the importance of things. Don't worry, go back to the room and accompany her, so she won't think too much." Old Mrs. Lin pushed her son who was beside the bed. She must not offend the God of Wealth at this critical moment.

Seeing that his mother had really let go of this matter, Lin Musen was relieved: "Okay, then I'll go back to my room, you should go to bed early!"

Old Man Lin had been outside paying attention to the movements in the room. He did not close the door when Lin Musen entered the room, probably because he wanted him to hear the conversation in the room.

"Thank you, son." Old Man Lin was relieved when he heard that his son didn't mention him at all. He thanked Lin Musen who was walking towards him.

Lin Musen glanced at Old Man Lin, hesitant to speak, and finally just sighed deeply, then returned to his room silently. He knew in his heart that his father was a man who did not seek progress and lived a life of mediocrity. The reason why the family was so poor was closely related to his negative character. However, Lin Musen never realized that perhaps he was not even as good as his father. Although Old Man Lin was mediocre, at least he raised a pair of children and raised Xiaolong and Xiaofeng for him. In contrast, Lin Musen, who was over 40 years old, had achieved nothing, as if he had wasted most of his life.

Father Lin noticed his son's attitude, but he did not get angry. Instead, he continued to watch TV wholeheartedly. For him, life was so simple, and he did not think there was anything wrong with his lifestyle. After all, he was over 70 years old and it was time to enjoy his old age. He was not full of expectations like his wife, and he did not have too many extravagant expectations for the young Jiang Jie, so when getting along with her, he naturally did not need to deliberately please her.
