In the book, she became the daughter of a vicious villain who died early

Liu didn't understand what rebellious period was. She just felt that her child didn't know what was good for him.

How many people want to read and write but don’t have the conditions? He, who has someone to teach him at home, doesn’t even want to learn.

"Don't let him touch the books these days. Leave all the housework to him. If he does more, he will get more food. If he doesn't do anything, he will get nothing."

Letting his children experience the hardships of society early on is a trick often used by parents when modern children are tired of studying.

If the child doesn't want to go to school, then let him go to work, do the hardest and most tiring work, get the least pay, and join the boss in saying the harshest words.

After experiencing the hardships of society, most children will clamor to go back to school.

"Hey!" Liu sighed, "Your brother wasn't like this before. He changed after moving to the new house. I don't know why he became like this."

Because the living standards have improved and there is no burden of life on shoulders, people become leisurely, without any sense of oppression or motivation.

In addition, there is no one to supervise them all the time, and there are many temptations from the outside world. How can a half-grown child keep his original intention unchanged?

Liu was just grumbling and didn't expect Lin Shiyu to answer her. Even if she knew that her soul was already in her twenties, she hadn't married or had children, so how much could she know about raising children? !

"Go and take a rest if you're tired. I'll wake you up when dinner is ready."

Lin Shiyu nodded. She wasn’t tired at all, but she felt uneasy and confused after returning here after spending some time with her family.

After her daughter left, Liu closed the door, and Lin Anru spoke:

"Thanks a lot."

"You know how hard I work, so you should study hard and pass the exam to become an official. Then you can buy a few maids to serve me, an official's wife, and I won't have to work so hard."

"Yes, yes, I will go now."

He wants to be an official, his wife wants to be an official's wife, his daughter wants to be an official's daughter, but his son has no ambition at all. Tsk!

The father and son of the Lin family, one worked hard on mental work, and the other did hard manual labor, while the mother and daughter in the family had already gone to bed.

After resting for a while, Liu got up and urged her son to prepare dinner.

"Mom, isn't it too early? I'm not even hungry yet!"

It started raining not long after they finished breakfast. It was only a little after noon, and they had eaten dry rice with meat in the morning, so they were very hungry.

"You are not hungry, but your mother is hungry, and your sister is hungry too. Go and do it, and then come back and dig the ground."

"All right!"

Lin Boyu had no choice but to put down the hoe in his hand and went to the kitchen. Soon the smell of food wafted out.

"Mom, the food is ready, come and eat!"

Lin Boyu brought the last dish to the table and shouted loudly.

Liu came out of the house, glanced at the dining table casually, and immediately turned to question her son:

"Without bowls and chopsticks, what do you want your mother to eat?"

Lin Boyu felt aggrieved. This was the first time his mother had spoken to him in this tone since he was a child.

"What are you still standing here for? Go get some dishes and chopsticks, and call your father and sister to come out for dinner."

Bang!

Lin Boyu was angry, and when he put the bowl on the table he used so much force that he even scared himself.

He glanced at Liu and breathed a sigh of relief when he saw that he didn't react.

In the past, he was only responsible for cooking, while his mother and sister were responsible for taking and cleaning up the dishes. There were also people to help with lighting the fire. Now, all the responsibilities fell on him.

Lin Anru swallowed the food in her mouth and suddenly asked, "Do you think the meat is delicious?"

Everyone nodded without hesitation.

"Do you know? When dad was a kid, he could only eat such delicious meat during festivals. On weekdays, he couldn't even have thick porridge, let alone meat. It's not like you now, there are no festivals, you can eat meat and dry rice."

Lin Anru recalled and sighed.

"It was the same with mom. At that time, your grandpa was still quite rich, but at most he would give mom eggs occasionally to nourish her body. He never gave her meat."

At that time, Doctor Lin was afraid that his daughter would not be in good health and would cost a lot of money, so he tried to save as much as possible on daily expenses. Later, he accepted Lin Anru as his apprentice, and the expenses became even higher, so he simply saved as much as possible.

Lin Shiyu lowered her head and ate her meal seriously. The couple was educating their son, so she didn't get involved.

Lin Boyu stared at the meat in the bowl in a daze. Not long ago, before the family split up, he and his parents were in a similar situation when they were children.

At that time, let alone meat, even an egg would make him think about it for a long time.

"That was when Dad was a kid. It got better when he grew up." Lin Anru said again: "When I grew up, someone in my family had to go to the military every year, and everyone who went could eat meat once."

In order to eat meat, several brothers even rushed to serve in the army.

After Lin Shiyu finished eating, she put down her chopsticks and sighed, "Dad, you are so pitiful!"

"Compared to you, Dad is really pitiful." Lin Anru continued her words: "When I was a child, we had to do all the work at home except for the work in the kitchen, such as chopping wood, carrying water, sowing seeds, weeding, catching insects, etc. During this time, I also had to squeeze out time to study with your grandfather. It was really hard."

"Dad, you've never thought of giving up after working so hard?"

"No." Lin Anru answered firmly.

"Working day after day, like being tortured every year, is too hard. Life is still long, I don't want to continue living like this for the next few decades, just thinking about it makes me tired. How dare I give up the opportunity to fight for change, when others want this opportunity but have no way to do it!"

Lin Boyu lowered his head. His mind was in a mess at the moment. He felt like he should say something, but he didn't know what to say.

His brain was still working frantically, but before he could come to a conclusion, he was interrupted by Liu's words.

"Boyu, remember to clean up the bowl after eating."

He looked up at the table. Everyone's bowl was empty, except him, who still had half a bowl of rice left.

But he couldn't eat at this moment.

But we can’t throw it away, because it is precious food, and it is the rice that everyone longs to eat!

You have to eat even if you can’t eat!

……

Lin Anru and the other two went to the yard together and lay down to rest.

"I don't know if this will help him."

Liu looked in the direction of her son. Sometimes she wished her family was like an ordinary family, where no one was illiterate, so that there would be no compulsory requirement for their children to study or not.

"We'll have to observe him carefully over the next few days. If things don't work, we'll have to take him to the county town."

Meng's mother moved three times for her children, and he was about to follow suit.

The expenses for him to study in the county town alone were huge enough, and with a son added to the mix, the pressure was really something that their farming family could not afford.

"Eh!"

Liu sighed and then stopped talking.

"Boom boom boom!"

"Boom boom boom!"

There were regular knocks on the door outside the yard.
