My Beloved Super Fierce Wife-Chapter 156: Battle of Public Opinion! About to Start!

The people in the brigade looked at him differently after they learned he’d spent so much grain and money to get his son a temporary job.

Just like looking at a rat in a ditch.

They all thought he was taking advantage of the brigade, that he wasn’t clean-handed managing the warehouse.

Was he that kind of person?

Liu Guohui’s eyes hardened when he heard his father say that everything was destiny.

"I don’t believe in fate!"

As he spoke, he glanced at Lin Tang and then turned and went back.

Lin Tang’s good news of being featured in the newspaper became the hottest topic in the Shuangshan Brigade.

Even after dark, there were still clusters of members talking about it excitedly.

The buzz about this lasted for half a month.

In the following time, the news even spread to several neighboring brigades.

But back to the present.

Lin Tang was helplessly answering all sorts of questions from the uncles and aunties of the brigade.

It wasn’t until almost ten in the evening that things finally calmed down.

Seeing that it was getting late, Lin Fu announced over the loudspeaker, and the members went home still engrossed in the excitement.

Lin Tang followed her family home.

Li Xiuli, recalling the letter she received today and fearing she might forget, hurried to give it to Lin Tang.

"Tangtang, this is the letter your dad signed for you this afternoon from the Provincial City, is it about the same thing as your newspaper article?"

Her eyes kept darting to the letter in Lin Tang’s hand, without asking to see it, her curiosity barely contained.

Lin Lu and the three Lin brothers felt the same way.

As for Ning Xinrou and Zhou Mei, they were busy putting the little ones to bed and had no time to join the fuss.

Lin Tang looked at her adorable family with a smile of helpless indulgence.

"If you want to see, let’s look together, it’s probably about the newspaper thing," she said.

At this moment, Lin Lu recalled the letter his daughter had received before.

The letter looked thick, but Lin Tang had never mentioned it.

He felt there was something fishy about the letter.

It seemed like... Tangtang was deliberately avoiding them about it.

Lin Tang didn’t know her father had guessed the letter sent to her was dodgy, and even if she did, she wasn’t worried.

Her family, though country folk, had always respected her.

As long as she didn’t want to talk about it, they wouldn’t ask further questions.

On this point, the Lin Family did better than anyone.

Lin Tang opened the envelope.

Inside were two folded newspapers and eight yuan.

Beyond that, there was another letter.

Lin Lu and Li Xiuli saw the several pieces of cash, their eyes widened in disbelief.

"How come there is money? It’s no small amount either," Li Xiuli exclaimed in shock.

Does writing earn so much money?

Lin Tang said, "It should be the remuneration for my article, let me read the letter first."

But really, this remuneration wasn’t little at all.

She had thought even two yuan would have been a lot.

The three Lin brothers: Their sister made them feel like they were as good as worthless snacks.

Lin Tang read the letter, which simply said that the article was good, hence it was published, and the remuneration had been sent, etc.

The most important thing was the telephone number of the newspaper office included at the bottom.

Lin Tang caressed those digits with her finger, her mind full of "Finally, my chance has come."

The stack of letters in the System Space that could serve as evidence was probably about to see the light of day.

Since she had decided to stand up to those people, she intended to turn the world upside down.

She didn’t plan to let anyone involved off the hook!

First step: The war of public opinion.

Was about to begin!!

Lin Qingmu sensed something off in his sister’s expression and asked tentatively, "Tangtang, what’s wrong?"

Lin Tang quickly regained her composure, concealing the complex thoughts that had just surfaced in her mind.

"Nothing, the letter said I wrote well and that if I have other articles, I can continue to submit them."

Lin Lu and Li Xiuli, upon hearing this, were so proud that they trembled.

They had had so many surprises that nothing was surprising anymore.

Ever since Tangtang joined the Textile Factory, so many good things had come to the family.

The couple had almost become numb to it all.

Li Xiuli’s face was unstoppable with laughter.

Her smile was so wide that the wrinkles on her forehead and the corners of her eyes deepened significantly.

"...My daughter of course writes well!"

Lin Lu thought of the pig-farming guide his daughter had written for the eldest, the business plan for the Sauce Factory for his older brother, each a thick stack, and she even found time to submit articles to newspapers...

With all these things, how could her body take it?

The worried eyes of the old father gazed at Lin Tang.

"Tangtang, don’t forget to take care of yourself!

I feel like you’ve never stopped, always writing something.

When you’re off work, go out with some classmates for a walk instead of staying at home all the time writing and reading, it’s not good for your eyes or your body."

Li Xiuli thought it over for a moment and felt it made sense.

Her expression became serious, and she also advised,

"Your dad is right, go look for Qingqing and Xiaoyun when you’re free,

see what fun things there are in the county, go out and have some fun,

and then you can come back and tell Goudan and the others, let them broaden their horizons as well."

There must be many nice places in the city.

Lin Qingshan thought of the pig-farming guide he carefully flipped through every day in his room, now slightly dog-eared, and felt a mix of warmth and sourness in his heart.

Silly girl!

Not knowing how late she writes each night before going off to work in the county the next day to finish that stuff.

"...Tangtang, what matters most is your happiness, don’t be always worrying about home and the brigade.

Our family is getting better and better now, and we’ll soon be able to collect and divide the grain.

The vegetables in our field are growing well, and the pigs and rabbits in the backyard are growing fast..."

Lin Qingshan shared the home situation with his sister so that Lin Tang would know the family was no longer in the tough spot it was before because of her.

All of them thought the same, wishing for her to be happy.

They asked for nothing else.

But.

The three brothers Lin Qingshan, Lin Lu, and Lin Qingmu also knew that their sister, because of the cost of education, always felt the need to make up to the family.

She used to be driven by the desire to go to university, and now she was driven by the desire to provide for and take care of them.

These were things Tangtang never mentioned, but they all knew.

After Lin Qingshan finished speaking, Lin Qingmu, who was usually nonchalant, suddenly became serious.

He lifted his hand and lightly knocked on Lin Tang’s head.

His hand was so light it could hardly be felt.

"Silly girl!"

"You’re already a factory worker, how come you don’t indulge in some city dweller’s pleasures? We have everything at home, why worry so much?

You’re always thinking of mom and dad, making me and the elder brothers look like useless pastries.

And don’t say I didn’t tell you, just fly freely, at home you have your brothers. Leave us some room to be filial to the parents."

Lin Qingmu cajoled with his mixture of jokes, openly teasing himself while covertly urging Lin Tang to think of herself.

No matter how you put it, what freaked him out were the things his sister had brought back.

The three brothers had scrounged up their stashed away money that very afternoon, planning to hand it to her when Tangtang went back to the county.

They couldn’t let their sister go hungry.

Lin Tang met her family’s anxious eyes, afraid she would go hungry or be wronged, and felt a crack open in her heart, letting in warm sunshine.

It was so warm that her nose tingled with emotion.

The young girl took a deep breath to calm the surge in her heart.

"Oh, you can relax, am I such a foolish person?

Apart from my salary, I also have the money Xiaoyun helped me make by selling the skin cream.

I only spent a bit on grains and meat.

Those flawed goods don’t require coupons, they’re hard to come by, so I just bought them.

Our home needs these things, we can keep them or, if mom can’t bear to, we can ’trade’ them with the aunties in the village..."
