Chapter 352: New Home, New Atmosphere
Lin Fan parked the car in the garage and took out the fruits and vegetables he had purchased. He walked towards the living room on the first floor with a smile, while his parents, hearing the noise, immediately came out to greet him, their smiles tinged with a sense of restraint.
"Mom and Dad, are you getting used to the new house?"
Lin Fan placed the vegetables in the kitchen and handed the fruit to his mother, whose wrinkled face bloomed with a smile.
"I’m pretty used to it. It’s just your dad keeps grumbling about how he can’t find his tools anywhere. The night we came back, he didn’t even sleep inside. He sat in that pavilion all night, claiming this isn’t a home, it’s the Garden of Immortal Palace."
"You old hag, always talking about me. Aren’t you the same!"
His father, still with a cast on his leg, leaned on his cane and glared at his mother before saying, "Ever since we came back, your mom’s been complaining about how those two patches of land are planted with flowers. If they were planted with two rows of corn, we could have at least made forty or fifty yuan. It’s such a waste. She insists that next year we must plow it over to grow crops, plant two rows of eggplants and peppers, then we won’t have to buy vegetables anymore."
"That won’t do."
Lin Fan smiled at his mother, having anticipated that his parents, who had farmed their entire lives, would have their own ideas about the garden, so he had already thought of a solution: "We can live in this house and use everything in it, but since we only contributed the land and not money, we have an agreement as a model house. Occasionally, the company will bring clients over to visit. Don’t underestimate these flowers; they cost over thirty thousand yuan. If you take good care of them, they won’t charge us, but if you leveled them, I’d be in big trouble."
