Chapter 6 The Zheng Family

Thinking of these, Lin Yu felt more and more that it was imminent to create a wealth of zΓ o. It stands to reason that she can have a bride price to give to the whole family when she marries in the future. However, as soon as he is old, even if he is "gilded" in the palace, after all, he is still a person who runs for three, and his physical functions are not the same as those of a little girl, but whoever is rich and powerful, who doesn't want to find a young and easy to raise? This is not modern, there is no popular true love, at her age, she is a stepmother to others, who will spend more money to marry her an old girl? Second, she doesn't have a beautiful face, otherwise she wouldn't have been the most inferior palace maid in the palace for so many years, so Lin Yu didn't have the idea of finding a golden beetle son-in-law, she was very self-aware.

Since getting married is a problem, Sun, as a sister-in-law who is not very generous, may take care of her for a day or two because of Daquan's face, but after a long time, it is difficult to ensure that their nominal sister-in-law will not have conflicts. She is an outsider, if she brings conflicts to the eldest brother's family, Lin Yu is very unwilling. Anyway, she was able to come back to Lin Jiagou because of the residual family relationship in the memory of the former master, and no matter what, the Daquan family is indeed a support for her in this strange world, but she really doesn't want to be a burden to the Daquan family. People have faces and bark, and her pride does not allow herself to be used as a drag oil bottle.

But how can you make money on your own? Now it is going to be late autumn, as the so-called "spring and summer are long and autumn harvest and winter are hidden", the autumn harvest has passed, in this rural area, winter is already the idle season, everyone is "cat winter", where will there be a money-making business?

Before Lin Yu came back from his thoughts, he heard a knock on the door, but it was Sun who walked in.

"Oh, are you two awake? The rice is boiling in the pot (teng), you can take it out and eat it yourself after washing your face, I will go up the mountain with Da Zhuang and his mother, and slowly pour the remaining gourds from the field to the house. ”

"Gourd?" Lin Yu was excited and asked, "But that melon with golden skin and big head?" ”

"yes!"

"When did we have this gourd? I don't remember growing it at home! ”

"It's only in the last four or five years that the species has become popular. It's big, easy to store, and hungry, and it's popular to grow this now! I won't tell you, I'm going to take the basket and go first. As he spoke, Sun neatly took a turban from the cabinet and wrapped his hair, and was about to go to the outhouse to get the earthen basket.

"Sister-in-law, I'm going to help you too!" said that it was too late, Lin Yu lifted the lid of the pot, took a piece of boiled cornmeal steamed buns, took a bite, and was about to go out with Sun.

"I'll go too!" Taicai did the same, and also took a piece of steamed bread and put it in his mouth.

Sun smiled, "Done!" Then big sister, let's go over together! ”

The big and strong mother was already standing at the door, it was a black rural woman in her thirties, looking at Lin Yulai, her eyes flashed with shrewdness, looking from top to bottom, which made people very uncomfortable.

"Sister-in-law Zheng!" Lin Yu nodded towards Da Zhuang's mother. Most of the people in the village have the surname Lin, so everyone calls him his maiden name.

"Hmm." Da Zhuang Niang responded in a nasal voice, and then pulled the little dark leather monkey next to her, and said, "This is your Aunt Yu!" ”

Lin Yu instantly left three drops of sweat on his head, but he also responded to Da Zhuang's call of "Aunt Yu" with a smile.

And behind Zheng's family, there was also a cowardly figure, which was much whiter than Zheng's mother and son, and when he saw Lin Yu's eyes looking straight at him, he shrank behind Zheng's again.

"This isβ€”" Lin Yu asked.

"This is Da Zhuang's little aunt, called Shan Yatou, fifteen years old." Zheng pulled out the little girl behind him and said, "It's not a call yet!" ”

"Sister Rain!" Lin Shan wore pigtails, two bags on her head, her eyes were a little small, and she was also timid when she spoke.

It turned out that Lin Shan was also an unmarried daughter living in her brother's house, and Lin Yu gave her a warm smile.

Lin Shan's expression froze for a moment, and then the corners of her mouth pulled an arc. However, before he could form a smile, he was interrupted by a loud voice from Zheng. "Let's go! Don't rub around at this door! ”

Lin Yu smiled helplessly and followed the two sisters-in-law up the mountain together.

Because Liyun County is in the north, close to Hushan Country, it is also a mountainous area. Most of the villages here are ditches, forks, mountains and the like. Except for a small part of the wheat fields of the common people at the foot of the mountain, the rest of the fields are opened up near the mountains, and they have to walk for a while when they go to their own fields.

These people are used to going up and down the river, and they still have wind under their feet when they walk on the rugged mountain road, but they suffer from the forest rain and work hard in the back.

"Hey, your sister-in-law is too pampered, it's only a few steps away, and you can let us leave her so far!" Zheng stabbed Sun's arm and said.

"Sister, hurry up, wait for you to fall into the place, it's noon!" Sun's loud voice immediately rang out.

"Huh!" Lin Yu responded, and sped up his pace, in fact, a total of ten steps and eight steps, Lin Yu could hear them talking, but he still pretended not to know, and continued to follow closely.

"I said, sister-in-law Sun, the Mid-Autumn Festival will be in the future, and it is time to buy two mooncakes at the Ming'er Market, right?" Zheng asked Sun as he walked briskly.

"When it comes to the New Year's Festival, this money will be taken out like a stone, and it is not the same thing if you don't eat it! But this piece of moon cake costs three cents, and you can buy half a catty of white noodles! Sun muttered.

"Mother, I want to eat moon cakes!" Taicai hurriedly trotted to catch up with Sun and shouted.

Sun slapped Taicai on the head, "You know how to eat in one day!" ”

Seeing that Sun hit Taicai's head again, Lin Yu quickened his pace and chased after Taicai to protect him, afraid that he would say something that would make Sun angry.

"The eldest sister is not young, is she?"

Seeing that Zheng asked knowingly, Lin Yu was not very happy. Since she woke up early in the morning, I felt that this Zheng family was a joker, much higher than her sister-in-law, at least her sister-in-law was not as blatant as her.

"Twenty-nine." Lin Yu replied lightly.

"I'll just say, you're not young anymore, no wonder you are so protective of your wealth, you know, if you marry early, your children should have so much wealth! Look at you, it's good to grow up in our village, but you can't always stay at your brother and sister-in-law's house, women, it's serious to get married. Let's just say that we are a girl, we got engaged in the summer, just because she has always been well-behaved, the other party likes it very much, and she gave five taels of silver to the bride price! Zheng said proudly.

Lin Yu was a little disgusted, why did the Zheng family keep encouraging her to marry, as if he had eaten her family's food!

Probably the Sun family also hated others saying that Lin Yu was an old girl or something like that, and when he heard the Zheng family mention it again, he immediately talked about other topics and diverted from it.
