LIN FAMILY RULES

2. Lin's Daughter's Daily Life

I am the only daughter of the Lin family, and the Lin Family Rules, which have caused the internet to cry out in outrageous outrage, have been my daily routine for many years. I've always assumed that the average girl in the family in was expected to do all of these things.

I wake up at 4:30am on time because mom and dad have to get up at 5:30am for morning exercise, and I have to prepare breakfast according to the family's preferences before then. Mom is on a diet and prefers a western style breakfast with zero sugar, low calories, low fat and high protein; Dad likes to eat the traditional Tianjin buns, which must be accompanied by hand-beaten soymilk.

Just as breakfast is ready, my parents wake up. However, I don't have time to enjoy a leisurely breakfast with them. I have to pull my little yellow cart to the morning market to pick fresh and affordable vegetables.

According to the Lin family rules:

"Daily meal budgets must be strictly controlled within 10-15 yuan, and any excess must be borne individually. Each meal should include beef, lamb, pork, and chicken. Constantly monitor the community group for discounted groceries. No duplicates every five days and no overnight dishes.."

After buying groceries, I have 30 minutes before the "Young Master of the Lin Family," my older brother, wakes up. I head back to the kitchen to prepare his breakfast.

The "Young Master of the Lin Family" likes desserts. I toast two slices of bread, make a sweet doughnut, a custard tart, and a glass of orange juice. The Lin family doesn't drink outside beverages; it must be freshly squeezed fruit juice. I quickly eat the leftover bits and pieces for my own breakfast after everyone finishes eating. Just as I was about to sit down and catch my breath, my mom suddenly called me.

"Tidy up the house after a while. There should be no trace of garbage, and you have to wipe the floor with your hands. No dust should be left on the tables and windows. Change your clothes so you don't look like a beggar picking up trash. Your brother is bringing his girlfriend home for dinner tonight, so prepare well."

Look! Sure enough, Internet netizens are too exaggerated, there are still girls willing to communicate with my brother even if the family rules are such a fire

"Mom, can the other person accept our family rules?"

My mom, with a triumphant laugh, squinted her eyes like a victorious rooster, "Of course! Those online say they would rather be single for life than visit us, hum! They want to marry into our Lin family, but I don't. Not all cats and dogs can enter our house .Besides, your brother has a stable career, a secure job; they're just jealous! The girlfriend Ah Cheng brought home this time is from the provincial capital, reportedly from a wealthy business family, a high-achieving graduate from a prestigious university. Give yourself an extra 10 yuan for dinner, and prepare well."
