Aunt Zhou strode forward, the lively sounds emanating from the red-brick house quickening her heartbeat and her pace.

Upon reaching the entrance, she saw the Lin family’s main hall filled with villagers. To be more precise, they were all like her, bearing gifts in their hands, all here to present offerings to the Lin family.

Aunt Zhou was taken aback. She had thought she was the only one clever enough to think of currying favor with the Lin family by bringing gifts. She hadn’t expected so many others to have the same idea. The crowd was so large that she could barely squeeze through the door.

Aunt Zhou, her eyes wide with urgency, spotted Mother Lin inside, who had just returned from town and was politely declining the villagers’ gifts. She waved and called out, “Aunt An, it’s Aunt Zhou from town!”

Upon hearing her voice, Mother Lin looked over and saw Aunt Zhou standing outside. Although she didn’t know why Aunt Zhou had come, Mother Lin believed in treating all guests with courtesy.

She asked the villagers to make some room, creating a small gap for Aunt Zhou to squeeze through. Aunt Zhou handed over a basket of eggs and a basket of apples to Mother Lin, saying, “Aunt An, I came specifically to apologize for today’s incident. You must accept these gifts, please don’t be polite with me.”

Mother Lin was somewhat perplexed as she was handed another gift. She felt helpless. Today, everyone seemed to be bringing gifts. She could refuse one or two, but how could she possibly turn away a dozen or more?

However, after some thought, she decided to accept Aunt Zhou’s gift. After all, Aunt Zhou was a businesswoman in town. After today’s incident, she would surely not cause trouble in the store again. Wouldn’t that make her a good customer?

Mother Lin set aside the fruits and eggs, and handed a return gift to Aunt Zhou, saying, “I’ve accepted your gift, so don’t refuse mine. You’ve come a long way, sit down and have a cup of tea.”

Aunt Zhou was now very respectful towards Mother Lin, her tone ingratiating. “I’ll accept it then. You’re even offering me tea, but with so many guests in your house today, what’s the occasion? If you need help, I can stay and lend a hand. Don’t mind if I’m a bit slow!”

Aunt Zhou’s friendly attitude was approved by the other villagers. They started chatting with her, saying, “We’re just like you, here to bring gifts to Lin Lao’er’s family. We’re grateful to them. You’re from town, you must have heard about it.

“There’s a wealthy pig farm in the neighboring county that recently went bankrupt. This has caused many people in the villages there to lose their jobs.

“Those people, having no other choice, are now planning to go back to their old ways and work outside. Many families have only the elderly and children left at home. It’s a pitiful sight.

“My son was lucky to work at Boss Su’s pig farm. That’s why our family is living comfortably. But since Boss Su and his family have moved away, we can only express our gratitude to his wife’s family.”

“Why pity them? Do you know? If the wealthy pig farm hadn’t gone bankrupt, we would have been the unlucky ones. I heard that the Rich Pig Farm and our Daqing pig farm were competitors. In the end, only one could survive. The boss of the Rich Pig Farm is not as strong as our Daqing’s boss!”

As the villagers chatted, Aunt Zhou finally understood why so many people were bringing gifts to the Lin family.

She was now thoroughly impressed by this family. She realized that she needed to work harder to foster this relationship. In the future, in addition to frequenting Sister Hua’s Gourmet Shop, she needed to think of other ways to maintain this connection.

Aunt Zhou also asked Mother Lin about Gu Zi’s situation. “Aunt An, did your daughter really move to the city? I heard that the cost of living in the city is high. Their family must be spending a lot.”

Upon hearing Aunt Zhou’s words, Mother Lin, who was missing her daughter, was about to say something when she heard a car honking outside. Then she heard someone say, “Aren’t those Lin Miao’s biological parents? Why are they here again? They better not cause trouble for Lin Lao’er’s family!”

Hearing that those two had arrived, the smile on Mother Lin’s face faded. She stepped outside, where Gu Shan and his wife, Zhang Mei, were approaching.

Mother Lin felt there was no need for any unnecessary pleasantries with them. After all, there was no need to pretend that the relationship between the two families was good. “Mr. Gu, Mrs. Gu, what brings you here?” she asked.
