Sha Zhu smiled and went home to get half a bottle of wine and walked towards the Lin family. Seeing Lin Donglai sorting firewood, he smiled and said, "Dongli, take out the lunch box. Let's have a good meal together."

"Oh, I want to discuss something with you. I stewed too much chicken and potatoes and we probably can't finish it. How about calling Sister Qin and the others? Or maybe give her family a box of food?"

Lin Donglai laughed when he heard what he said. It was just as he expected. Fortunately, he had a way to deal with it.

"Brother Zhuzi, I'm so sorry, there's only one box of chicken left, and Dongyi and I ate the other two.

I think we should not invite the Jia family. There are so many of them and this amount of meat is not enough. I will ask Dongyi to ask your family to invite Yushui to come and eat together."

When Sha Zhu heard that Qin Huairu didn't have any chicken, he immediately became unhappy: "Dongli, didn't we agree to have a drink together? Why did you eat in advance? This is not allowed."

This reaction was also what Lin Donglai expected. He stared at Sha Zhu with deep eyes and said, "Brother Zhu, you are not going to give the last box of chicken to the Jia family, are you?"

Sha Zhu didn't expect Lin Donglai to ask this and was stunned.

Lin Donglai took the opportunity to ask him again: "Brother Zhuzi, you are so nice to Sister Qin, do you like her? Do you want to marry her?"

When Sha Zhu heard this, he immediately blushed and wiped his sweat: "Don't talk nonsense, kid. I saw that Sister Qin was the only one who earned money to support a whole family. It's not easy for an orphan and a widow, so I wanted to help her."

This nervous look and stern words made Lin Donglai stare at him and smile without saying a word.

Perhaps Sha Zhu was afraid that others would discover what he was thinking, so he did not continue to ask for chicken to be sent to the Jia family and sat down by himself.

Lin Dongyi was a little elf. Upon seeing this, she ran to Sha Zhu's house in the middle courtyard, whispered a few words in Yu Shui's ear, and quickly invited her to her home.

Yu Shui was in the period of growing up. After arriving at the Lin family and finding out what was going on, he started eating happily.

Yu Shui was very satisfied with the meal. She hadn't eaten meat for a long time. Every day, the lunch boxes that Silly Brother brought back were intercepted by the Jia family. She was angry but could not say anything.

Sha Zhu, who was sitting opposite, was eating while thinking about Qin Huairu's angry look just now. The more he thought about it, the more guilty he felt. He was afraid that Qin Huairu would ignore him if she knew that he didn't bring meat to her home today.

Lin Donglai didn't care about Sha Zhu's thoughts at all. It was his business if he wanted to be a bootlicker, but he couldn't waste the fruits of his hard work.

Seeing Shazhu and Yushui walking out of the Lin family with satisfied faces, Yan Bugui felt annoyed again. To describe him as regretting his decision was the most appropriate.

The days passed one after another, and three days went by in the blink of an eye.

Lin Donglai went into the mountains twice in the past few days. The first time, he dug a trap halfway up the mountain and at the top of the mountain, and used his hunting skills to catch two pheasants and five rabbits.

Of course, all these prey were collected and put into the space.

The second time he went into the mountains, he thought there would be a big wild boar in the trap, but it was empty, and he wasted a lot of effort.

Fortunately, with the help of hunting skills, he did not return empty-handed. This time he harvested two hares and two pheasants, which were all put into the space without exception.

Lin Donglai chopped two more bundles of firewood and carried them home. This time he felt much lighter than before. He couldn't help but mutter to himself:

"The effect of the spiritual spring water is indeed powerful. I feel that my physical condition has improved a lot in just a few days."

These days, Lin Donglai and his sister have been eating rice, noodles and vegetables bought some time ago. They are easily hungry because their stomachs are empty, so he decided to get some meat today.

At this time, except for a few women who were gossiping, everyone was at work. After he carried the firewood home and spread it out, he took out some money and decided to take his sister to a restaurant for a good meal.

When the little girl heard that she could go to a restaurant, she immediately smiled and became very excited. After changing her clothes, she followed him obediently.

Looking back at his sister, Lin Donglai felt a little sad. A child of this age should be learning knowledge in school and should not stay at home all day.

When her parents were alive, the younger sister went to school every day. But after her parents passed away, she was worried about her disappointing brother and she didn't have the money to pay the tuition, so she stopped going to school.

Right now, we have about a hundred yuan at home, and there are some wild rabbits and pheasants in the space. We can make a lot of money by selling them, and we can support my sister's schooling.

He could go to school after explaining the situation to the teacher and paying the tuition. Thinking of this, he said to the little girl, "Dong Yi, do you still want to go to school?"

The little girl's eyes immediately became red when she heard about going to school. She had excellent grades in school and was the class monitor, so how could she not want to go to school? It was just that a sudden change at home forced her to give up.

"Brother, I don't want to go to school. I just want to stay at home with you." The little girl bit her lip, as if she had made a great decision.

Lin Dong felt even more distressed when he saw his sister's little appearance. He touched her head and comforted her: "Dongyi, brother can make money now. Our family has enough money to pay for tuition. I still hope you can continue to go to school."

The little girl walked quietly without expressing her opinion.

Lin Donglai understood that his sister had not yet recovered from the incident and felt insecure.

He made a decision in his mind that no matter what would happen in the future, he would hurry up and pay his sister's tuition while he had the means so that she could continue to go to school.

After arriving at the restaurant and looking at the menu on the sign, Lin Donglai remembered the half wild rabbit in the space. Since stewing rabbit meat in the yard would attract people's attention, it would be better to stew it outside.

Letting his sister sit down first, he found a place where no one would notice, took out the half rabbit, and asked the kitchen to help process it into braised rabbit meat.

Then I ordered a side dish and some tofu, plus two steamed buns, and the total cost was a little over one dollar.

Children are children. Looking at the dishes being served one by one, red and green, a smile immediately appeared on the little girl’s face.

Putting aside the topic of school, the brother and sister ate meat with big mouthfuls and talked about interesting things in their childhood. The word "comfortable" can be used to describe their happiness.

After a while, the brother and sister had eaten their fill and packed up the remaining rabbit meat and prepared to go home.

Unexpectedly, the little girl was in a good mood and begged her brother to take her to the Shichahai Beach for a stroll. It was rare for a sister to make a request, so Lin Donglai of course agreed.

Along the way, Lin Donglai tried again and again, and finally convinced his sister to let down her guard and agree to return to school.

After walking for a while, they arrived at the Shichahai Lake. In the spring, the ice and snow of Shichahai Lake had melted long ago. The lake was sparkling, and the trees were sprouting tender leaves, creating a thriving scene.

In addition to a few people having fun at the Shichahai Lake, there are also many people fishing with fishing rods by the lake.

Seeing this, Lin Donglai couldn't help but sigh inwardly, no matter what era, fishing, this ancient and peaceful activity, exudes its unique charm.

In the past, he loved to watch some fishing videos on his mobile phone in his spare time. Now, when he sees someone fishing, he will naturally stop and watch for a while.

The little girl saw her brother stop, so she stopped too, following his gaze, and the two of them stared at someone not far away.
