Moonlight Shining Brightly over the Fields, the Young Man's Heroic Bearing Outshining Spring

Lakeside Village!

Lin Chen's return to the village drew everyone's attention.

Even the old village chief hurried back to the Lin Family after hearing the news, asking about the situation.

Only after learning that Lin Chen had merely returned home to practice martial arts did he finally relax.

After seeing the old village chief off, Lin Chen thought of the man's anxious expression when he had rushed over earlier. He could understand the old village chief's concerns.

He could now be said to be the hope of the entire village, so naturally, the chief did not want anything to happen to him.

When Mother Lin saw her son return, she was overjoyed. That evening, she prepared a whole table of dishes, including fish and meat, and even had Father Lin buy several pounds of beef.

"Chen'er, tell your mother about what happened at the martial arts academy."

At the dinner table, Mother Lin wore an expectant look.

"What's there to tell? You wouldn't understand even if I did." Father Lin took a sip of the muddy wine in his cup. "Don't tell your mother too much. She has nothing else to talk about under the old camphor tree these days. If you tell her about the martial arts academy, she'll spend several days discussing it with the village women."

"Lin Jiang, what do you mean? What's wrong with me chatting in the village?" Mother Lin slapped the table. "Have I done any less housework?"

"That's not what I meant. I..."

"You what? Do you think I go to the village every day just to listen to them praise me? Liang'er is old enough to marry, too. I have to find out which families have good girls."

Lin Chen had never interfered in his parents' bickering and had silently continued eating.
