However, after a moment of reflection, Lin Feng set aside all his thoughts and took his sister by the hand as they stepped into the market.
Although they had come to buy a bed today, Lin Feng was not in a hurry; after all, there was no rush for the bed. So, he and his sister began to stroll through the market.
Whenever Lin Feng saw something he liked, he bought it without considering the price. At first, Lin Ling was a bit hesitant, but eventually, perhaps due to a woman's innate shopping instinct or other reasons, she too joined in on the shopping spree.
Of course, the thoughtful Lin Ling did not forget to buy gifts for several women at home and even helped pick out many items for their mom.
At this point, Lin Feng had finally moved past his initial reflections.
Before long, the two had already filled two shopping carts. There was no choice; Lin Feng and Lin Ling had bought too much. As a result, the market sent over a salesperson to assist them in selecting items and to help pack everything up while they waited for Lin Feng to pay.
"Alright, that's enough. Let's go buy the bed now," Lin Feng said to his sister as they finished selecting items.
"Okay, I lost track of time while shopping. Look, it's almost ten o'clock," Lin Ling replied as she glanced at her watch.
"Don't worry; this market stays open late into the night. If you want to keep shopping, we can continue," Lin Feng reassured her. Although Lin Ling was not his biological sister, Lin Feng had always pampered her since they were young. Tonight, he planned to let her enjoy herself thoroughly, so he continued speaking.
"Maybe another time. Besides, everyone at home is waiting for us. We can come back another day," Lin Ling said with a bright smile on her face from her brother's indulgence.
"Alright then. Excuse me, could you please take us to see your beds?" Lin Feng said to the salesperson assigned to assist them.
"Sure, please follow me," the salesperson replied happily upon hearing that after buying so many items they still wanted to purchase a bed. This was a big-ticket item that could earn her several hundred dollars in commission for the night, so she led them eagerly.
The market manager had sent her with a task tonight, and correspondingly, if Lin Feng and his sister bought more items, she would earn additional commission.
Then, Lin Feng and Lin Ling selected a large bed along with two high-quality mattresses before finally deciding to head home.
As for the items that Lin Feng purchased, after he made the payment, there were city staff who naturally delivered them back to him. Since delivery was part of the service when buying furniture, the city did not mind delivering other items that Lin Feng had bought as well. After all, Lin Feng was a major customer, and the city had to treat him with care.
Lin Feng thanked them and left his address and contact information. He had already informed the city manager that he urgently needed these items, and the manager assured Lin Feng that they would send someone to follow him and deliver the goods, so he didn't have to worry.
The manager also understood that buying furniture late at night meant it was urgently needed.
Thus, Lin Feng left with his sister feeling satisfied. Even while sitting in the taxi, he could still sense his sister's excitement.
When they arrived home, it wasn't long before the delivery staff arrived to help Lin Feng carry the bed into the bedroom and assemble it before leaving. Lin Feng and his sister then began to arrange their bedroom.
Earlier, Lin Feng had also purchased a set of bedding, but since it was new, it needed to be cleaned before use. This task was naturally left to the women present.
Meanwhile, Lin Feng had another task to attend to: installing the heating system.
Actually, when he went out to make his purchases, Lin Feng had already requested a heater from a local store and arranged for it to be delivered late at night. Of course, this meant he would have to pay a higher fee, but Lin Feng wasn't short on money. He felt that during such cold weather, without heating, everyone would have trouble sleeping comfortably.
Lin Feng was quite familiar with how unbearable winter nights could be without heating; after all, he had lived there for many years. He remembered when he was younger and used to sleep with his sister. Back then, Lin Ling would always cuddle up to him for warmth.
Lin Feng also recalled that his mother wasn't in great health and suffered from rheumatism, which made her susceptible to cold during winter. Having a heater would definitely help her sleep better.
Of course, this was only a temporary solution. Lin Feng planned to take good care of his mother during his time at home. With Tesla, a skilled healer, around, Lin Feng believed he could help alleviate his mother's ailments. Although she had some minor issues due to years of hard work, she wasn't in terrible shape overall.
However, this matter couldn't be rushed, so Lin Feng decided not to mention it to his mother for now.
Once everything was settled, everyone except Lin Feng took their showers and went to bed. Lin Feng sat on the old sofa lost in thought.
The sofa in Lin Feng's home was quite old but held many memories from his childhood. So even though he was sitting on it now, he felt grounded and comfortable.
Of course, everyone had prepared a complete set of bedding for Lin Feng, fearing that he might catch a cold. Although Lin Feng didn't think he would get cold, he still accepted it gladly, as it was a sign of care.
The next day, Lin Feng was awakened by the sounds coming from the kitchen. When he opened his eyes, he saw four or five faces swaying in front of him, with his mischievous sister Lin Ling being the most playful among them. However, she was also startled by Lin Feng suddenly opening his eyes.
Upon getting up, Lin Feng realized that a lavish breakfast had already been laid out on the dining table, and everyone had been preparing to wake him up.
"Lin Feng, hurry up and wash up, then come eat breakfast; it won't taste good if it gets cold," Lin Mother called out to him.
"Okay," Lin Feng replied and began to tidy up his bedding.
But Lin Ling snatched it away from him, helping to fold the blankets while saying, "Brother, leave it to me; you quickly go wash up."
Seeing Lin Ling actively helping him fold the bedding, Lin Feng didn't feel the need to be polite. After all, it wasn't inappropriate for his sister to help him; she often helped him with this before.
After washing up, Lin Feng enjoyed a hearty breakfast.
Then he went outside to make a phone call.
Last night, Lin Feng had already informed Li Zhong about what happened here. Upon hearing this, Li Zhong immediately expressed his intention to rush over overnight to help Lin Feng deal with the matter. To Li Zhong, this was just a small issue; since Lin Erhu wanted to act tough, Li Zhong would show him who was really in charge.
Lin Feng quickly stopped Li Zhong when he heard he was coming overnight. If Lin Erhu was just going to be difficult, Lin Feng wasn't worried. However, Lin Erhu's brother was a village official. Although he held a minor position, he still directly managed their village. Therefore, Lin Feng thought it would be better to deal with Lin Erhu's brother as well. After all, his mother would likely choose to continue living here in their hometown. Lin Feng felt it was necessary to create a safety net for her there so that he could feel at ease.
So the two of them agreed that Li Zhong would set off in the morning and bring along a few people who could help resolve the issue. As for who to bring, that would depend on Li Zhong's judgment. Lin Feng believed that Li Zhong would handle this matter well.
Next, everyone sat down again, especially Lin Mother and Lin Ling; they were very curious about how Lin Feng had become so capable in just six months.
Seeing this, Lin Feng knew his mother would eventually ask about it. So he brought out the explanation he had prepared before returning home. He mainly talked about how he had made money through business and met some influential friends but didn't mention much else. After all, some things were inconvenient to share with his mother to avoid making her too worried.
The conversation ended with a satisfied smile from Lin Mother, and at that moment, Lin Erhu's voice echoed again from the yard. Lin Erhu had come early in the morning once more.
Hearing Lin Erhu's voice, both Lin Mother and Lin Ling instinctively shuddered. It seemed that Lin Erhu had instilled quite a bit of fear in them.
Seeing his family so frightened by Lin Erhu, Lin Feng felt even more displeased. This Lin Erhu was truly going too far.
"Don't be afraid; just stay at home. I'll go out to confront him." At this moment, Lin Feng could no longer hold back. After giving everyone a brief warning, he stepped outside. He genuinely wanted to see why Lin Erhu dared to continue causing trouble.
"Lin Feng, be careful," Lin Mother urged with a worried expression.
"Yeah, don't worry, Mom." The more cautious his mother was, the stronger Lin Feng's resentment toward Lin Erhu became. Nevertheless, he turned back to reassure his mother.
Then, Lin Feng strode confidently to the door, locked it behind him after stepping outside.
"Heh heh... Lin Feng, I didn't expect you to dare come out," Lin Erhu said with an unpleasant look on his face. He was injured and swollen but still grinned menacingly at Lin Feng.
"Hmph, if you're not afraid, why should I be? It's just a matter of hitting someone until my hands hurt," Lin Feng retorted boldly.
"Hmph... you’re asking for it. Let me tell you, in our village, I am the law. Offending me will definitely lead to a bad outcome," Lin Erhu sneered angrily at Lin Feng for daring to speak to him like that.
