My dad's marriage into my family made me rich, and my fierce yet adorable older sister spoils m

Although Lin Zhe felt something was off, when he saw his stepfather Yang Weidong, who was dressed in a smart Zhongshan suit and wearing a Shanghai brand watch on his wrist, his doubts were instantly replaced by vanity!

After all, the thought of finally living the life he had longed for in his previous life filled Lin Zhe with excitement!

Yang Weidong!

This is a high-ranking official in the city!

Even the thought of the beautiful women Lin Chuan had seen when she went to see him in her past life made Lin Zhemei grin from ear to ear.

He would be content with just one of his three older sisters.

"Weidong, you really care about this child so much!"

Beside him, Lin Chuan's biological mother, Ge Fengyan, with her fashionable perm and newly bought clothes, came over with a big smile on her face.

However, she still glanced at Lin Zhe's slightly yellowed old clothes with some disdain, and then looked at Yang Weidong ingratiatingly.

"That brat's been living in that rural area with his useless, good-for-nothing father, eating chaff and wild vegetables all day. We really need to investigate him. After we've done that, we'll take him to the department store to buy him some new clothes. He can't embarrass you when you're out in public!"

A barely perceptible hint of coldness flashed in Yang Weidong's eyes, but on the surface he still smiled as if a gentle breeze was blowing.

He patted Lin Zhe's shoulder with his slightly thin hand. "Xiao Yan is right. Now that you've entered the Yang family, you're my son, Yang Weidong's own son. Come on, Xiao Zhe, let's get a blood drawn."

Inside the blood-drawing room, a nurse inserted a needle into Lin Zhe's vein. Although it hurt a little, Lin Zhe didn't care anymore.

However, one could see that tube after tube of bright red blood was being drawn out, and there were already four large tubes.

In no time, Lin Zhe's face began to turn pale, and his head began to feel dizzy.

"Nurse...why are you drawing so much blood?" Lin Zhe asked weakly, leaning against the wall.

"A comprehensive checkup means more blood will be drawn, resulting in more tests. A more detailed checkup is good for your health."

Before the nurse could speak, Yang Weidong, who was standing to the side, was already talking with a smile.

As he spoke, he handed me a White Rabbit candy, saying, "Are you feeling a little dizzy? Here, suck on this; it'll give you some sugar and nutrients."

Lin Zhe opened his eyes wide and was immediately flattered as he accepted the White Rabbit milk candy. He quickly stuffed the candy into his mouth and felt the rich milky aroma instantly spread in his mouth!

He was overjoyed!

Forget about feeling dizzy! He's so happy right now, he feels like he's in heaven.

Back in the countryside, let alone White Rabbit milk candy, his good-for-nothing father couldn't afford even a hard block of brown sugar.

Thinking of this, Lin Zhe couldn't help but sneer smugly to himself.

Lin Chuan, you big idiot, you probably haven't even realized it yet.

Now, all you can do is stay in that dilapidated pigsty to fulfill your filial duties. I imagine that right now, you and that old geezer are probably shivering in the haystack, unable to even get a hot cornmeal porridge or bean paste to drink.

Once he gets a job in the city and lives a life of luxury, you absolutely mustn't come begging me for anything!

Lin Zhe was having a wonderful dream, imagining the future, but he didn't notice at all that Yang Weidong was talking quietly with a doctor in a white coat in the corridor outside the door.

"Section Chief Yang, this child's blood type is a preliminary match with yours."

The doctor lowered his voice, his eyes darting around.

"Next, we need to determine if there's a tissue match for your kidneys. If the match is successful, your uremia... can be saved!"

Upon hearing this, a hint of excitement flashed in Yang Weidong's eyes.

He turned his head and glanced at Lin Zhe, who was happily eating candy.

"Get the results as soon as possible," he said, his once gentle face now twisted with a hint of ferocity.

His eyes were fixed on the direction of the laboratory, like a venomous snake eyeing its prey. "My body can't hold on much longer. As long as the match is successful, schedule the surgery immediately..."

"clear."

"Achoo—!!"

In the Guan family compound, thousands of miles away, Lin Chuan couldn't help but sneeze loudly.

"What's wrong, Xiao Chuan? Did you catch a cold because it rained yesterday?"

Guan Hongying was carrying a large, rough porcelain basin out of the kitchen when she heard Lin Chuan sneeze. She immediately stepped forward nervously.

Lin Chuan waved his hand, rubbed his nose a couple of times, and said with a grin.

"It's alright, Mom. I guess someone's just talking about me behind my back."

However, when Lin Chuan's gaze fell on the large porcelain basin, his eyes widened instantly.

A huge bowl of braised pork with glass noodles!

The pork was cut into pieces about half the size of a palm, with alternating layers of fat and lean meat. It was stewed until tender and juicy, and the sweet potato noodles, soaked in the rich, oily broth, looked incredibly appetizing. The scallions sprinkled on top made it even more tempting.

"Come on, another pot of pork stew with glass noodles! Eat as much as you want today!"

Fearing that the vegetables she bought today wouldn't be enough for everyone, Guan Hongying went to stew some more food.

Fortunately, this dish doesn't require much skill.

In an era when every household is tightening their belts to get through the winter, the Guan family's meal was ten times more lavish than what city dwellers celebrate during the Lunar New Year!

"Hongying, children," Lin Hai said, picking up the wine cup filled with sorghum liquor. His voice was not loud, but it carried the solemnity of a scholar.

"I, Lin, spent the first half of my life teaching and educating, considering myself noble and upright, yet I ended up with a broken family. To be able to enter the Guan family now is my great fortune!"

As he spoke, he turned to look at Guan Hongying, his eyes gentle, and his heart felt warmer than ever before!

"Hongying, from now on I will teach the children to read and write, and to be reasonable and good people! You protected this family, and from now on I will protect your souls! This glass of wine is a toast to you!"

"Speak," Professor Lin said, tilting his head back and downing the spicy sorghum liquor in one gulp.

"Cough cough cough..."

Because he hadn't drunk such strong liquor before, and because he drank it too quickly, Lin Hai choked and coughed repeatedly, his fair face instantly turning bright red.

Guan Hongying originally wanted to toast Lin Hai, but seeing his appearance, she was so frightened that she quickly put down her cup.

"Oh my goodness! Drink slowly!"

Guan Hongying felt extremely distressed and quickly reached out to pat Lin Hai's back.

However, while patting her, she couldn't help but giggle foolishly: "Brother Lin, you're speaking in such a formal way that I don't quite understand, but I just know! From now on, you're my man! Anyone who dares to bully you, I'll chop them to pieces!"

Although Guan Hongying still speaks with a domineering air, Lin Hai now feels a warm current flowing through his heart, unlike when he was not used to it at first.

"Great!! Mom! So cool!"

Lin Chuan led the applause and cheers.
