Chapter 42 -42: Only You Are Being Lazy
“What are you prattling on about, girl? Don’t you use the silver that Changhong earns from hunting? Who’s feeding you?” Lin Baiyi stopped his work, frowning irritatedly at his daughter.
“Dad, I just feel bad for big brother.” Lin Caihe retorted, pouting her lips.
“You feel bad for your big brother, and so does Sangsang. Who do you think Changhong goes hunting in the mountains for? If one day I ask him to stop hunting and not bring home any grain, would you accept that?”
Lin Baiyi countered her with a stern tone.
He would not pander to his own daughter, who spent every day butting heads with Sangsang, contradicting everything she said, nearly enough to anger him to death!
“I…”
Now, Lin Caihe found herself speechless.
How could she not understand the situation at home? If Lin Changhong really stopped hunting, they could starve to death.
But she didn’t solely rely on Lin Changhong alone. After all, her father could now make bamboo baskets and such, and she could hold her head high once he sold them for silver.
“Dad, after you sell these things for silver tomorrow, can you buy me a colorful silk flower? I won’t ask for a pearl flower because they’re too expensive. Just a colorful silk flower would be pretty enough.”
She asked.
“Go away, I don’t need your help here. Go help your grandma gather pigweed.” After hearing her words, Lin Baiyi was grinding his teeth in anger.
He got blisters on his hands from working on bamboo crafts and hadn’t even seen a coin yet. And yet, his daughter had already planned out her purchases with the hypothetical money, wanting to buy colorful silk flowers?
“Go pick some wildflowers to wear instead. The money earned from these bamboo crafts isn’t for you to waste. The idea came from Sangsang, so she’ll decide how to spend the money.”
“Dad!”
Hearing her father’s words, Lin Caihe felt so frustrated she could cry.
She really wanted to ask: Who was his real daughter? Was it her, or Lin Caisang?
“Caihe, after I sell my medicinal herbs for silver, I’ll buy you a colorful silk flower.” Lin Caisang eventually couldn’t bear it and spoke up for Lin Caihe.
She knew Lin Baiyi was not indifferent to his daughter, but he felt the silver earned from selling these bamboo products should be spent where necessary, not on frivolous things.
But after all, Lin Caihe was just a young girl. Her desire for beauty was very natural.
“I don’t want it. Who knows whether your tree roots can be sold for silver.” In her annoyance, Lin Caihe glared at her.
Upon hearing this, Lin Changfeng glared at Lin Caihe.
“Sangsang, Brother Molian asked us to come over. Let’s go.” Closing the door behind them, he reminded Lin Caisang.
“Okay.”
Lin Caisang nodded.
“Big brother, I’m coming too.”
As soon as Lin Caihe saw this, she wanted to join them, but Lin Changfeng didn’t give her the chance.
“Brother Molian only asked for me, Sangsang, and Changhong. He didn’t include you. What are you going there for? To cause trouble?”
“I…”
Lin Caihe halted her steps.
“Instead of fantasizing about nonsense all day, stay quietly at home. If you can’t, go join grandma and mom to gather pigweed. Qing’er has already gone. You’re the only one who’s being lazy, refusing to leave the house.”

Lin Changfeng gave her his two cents, and then he left with Lin Caisang to the next door.
“Big brother!”
Hearing his words, Lin Caihe was nearly driven nuts.
How was she being lazy? She’d just stayed home for the day. Not to mention, she wasn’t the only one. Wasn’t Lin Caisang also staying at home without leaving?
“Dad, did you see what big brother said? Has anyone ever treated their own sister like that? Is Sister Sangsang his real sister?”
“Alright, Caihe. If you don’t want to stay at home, you can go to grandma and mom.” Lin Baiyi didn’t know what to do with his daughter. He couldn’t just punish her every time, right?
