Chapter 85: Found It
After Lin Changqing and the people of Yaxing completed the formalities, Lin Zhu became a landlord's wife she had never thought of before. In Aunt Li's eyes, Lin Zhu has changed too much in less than a year. Although on the surface, she still looks like the little girl in a cotton skirt, with no extra decorations on her body, and she doesn't even wear an extra flower on her head. Even Youqing, since she got the silk flowers from Dr. Zhang from Lin Zhu, she likes to wear them every day. Now Lin Zhu has such a big family business, fortunately, Lin Zhu still thinks about the little benefit she had at the beginning, and is willing to take her family with her, and the rich days in the future will definitely not be far away.
Lin Zhu took two boxes of snacks and two small jars of wine to the village chief's house. "Come on, come on, what else do you bring? Take the eldest lady as an outsider. "Aunt Li came to Lin Zhu to welcome her into the house, and said angrily." Auntie, I came to thank Uncle Xie Lin for help a few days ago, you can keep this snack, and this wine is specially bought for Uncle Lin. Lin Zhu replied with a smile.
"Then I'll have to try it." Lin Changqing came in from outside and heard Lin Zhu say that he would send wine, and said happily. "Just know how to drink." Aunt Li gave him a blank look.
"Uncle Lin, this is a little bit of my heart, please accept it." Lin Zhu took out a bulging purse with twenty taels of silver in it. Aunt Li opened it and took a look, and handed the purse to Lin Changqing with some undecidedness, Lin Changqing took it and looked at it, and looked at Aunt Li in surprise, "Xiaozhu, what are you doing here?" Lin Changqing returned the silver to Lin Zhu, and said a little angrily, "Is this looking down on you Uncle Lin?" ”
"Uncle Lin, it's not like this, you help me buy land these days. Always walking around outside, although there are eldest mothers and big brother Lin. But the things in the field have been delayed a lot. It's not just that you're even tired and a little thin from your aunt and Brother Lin, but I can't express it yet. Lin Zhu said as he walked up to Aunt Li. Shaking her arm.
Lin Changqing listened, and looked at Aunt Li again, although she couldn't see that she was thin, she was also darker, and she looked a little haggard. "Besides, Second Brother Lin is about to get married, you and your aunt must not prepare." Lin Zhu persuaded again. Speaking of the matter of his second son, Lin Changqing was silent, although he had already been married, but because the family provided him with education. I haven't been so surplus all the time, so the family matter has dragged down, the girl has already come to ask, this year must be married, but the bride price and the new house also have to be prepared, but it is not a small amount, with the twenty taels given by Lin Zhu, plus their own savings, not only can solve the problem of the bride price and the new house. can also do the marriage again decently.
Thinking of this, Lin Changqing didn't shirk it, "Okay, Uncle accepted it." Uncle Xie Lu thanked you for your second brother. When he has a chance, let him repay you well. Aunt Li also patted Lin Zhu's hand and said, "Thanks to you, I solved a piece of Auntie's heart disease." "Look at what you say. If it weren't for your kindness to help me, I don't know what Lu Dao is like now. ”
Lin Zhu and Aunt Li finished speaking. came out to play with Ruyu, and happened to meet Liu Qiucui walking around with a stomach in the yard. "Sister-in-law Lin, where are you going?" Seeing her walking out of the gate with her eight-month-old belly, Lin Zhu asked with concern, although she didn't speak well before, but for the sake of Aunt Li's face, Lin Zhu no longer cared about her. "Xiaozhu is here, but I haven't seen you for a few days, I heard that your watermelon is selling well, sister-in-law congratulates you." Liu Qiucui also changed her sour and mean appearance in the past, the dishes she ate every day were picked from Lin Zhu's house, and after eating this special dish, it was difficult for her to eat the ordinary dishes in the house. "Sister-in-law has to thank you, a few days ago I asked the doctor to check the pulse, people said that this child is very good, thanks to the dishes you gave my sister-in-law, my body will be so good." Looking at Lin Zhu, Liu Qiucui remembered what the doctor said that day when she asked the doctor to check her pulse, the doctor said that her body was not easy to get pregnant, and even if she was pregnant, she would be prone to slippage because her body was extremely sensitive. I also asked her if she had eaten any special supplements to make her body so healthy and her fetus very good. When I thought of these, Liu Qiucui always felt that it was the reason for eating Lin Zhu's dishes, and felt incredible, those dishes would not have such a magical effect. But since she was pregnant, she has been bitter, and she will not vomit when she eats the dishes she took from Lin Zhu, so Lin Zhu is a benefactor to her.
Lin Zhu saw that she was sincerely thanking her, and also said that she was not polite, the most important thing was that the mother and son were good. This is Aunt Li's first grandson, of course Lin Zhu can help. After saying a few words, Lin Zhu said goodbye to her and went to Ruyu's house.
"Did you run into my sister-in-law?" Ruyu asked. Lin Zhu looked at the embroidery work in her hand, "Well, after talking for a while, she seems to be waiting for someone at the door, is she waiting for your eldest brother?" He picked up the purse next to him and looked at it, "Your craftsmanship is getting better and better, this purse is so beautiful." "Who else can you wait for, her mother, since she came to my house for a meal three months ago, she has come to eat every once in a while, and she also brings her grandson." Lin Zhu smiled when she heard this, this is not something she can do with her beak. "Her grandson is three years old and still lets him be hugged, he can't eat by himself and has to be fed, and he loves to make trouble, and we can't eat well with him. If it weren't for her mother saying that this dish was given by someone else, she would have wanted to take it, but she wouldn't let her take it, and said that her mother was stingy. Later, my mother told her that there were things in the vegetable garden for her to pick. That's when it stopped. ”
Speaking of Liu Qiucui's mother, Ruyu was dissatisfied, she used to think that the conditions at home were not good, and often said some ugly things in her house, saying that her family was not good or bad, and how to treat her daughter badly, but she never saw her make up for her daughter, but it was always Liu Qiucui who took things back with a large bag when she returned to her parents' house. Now that she is coming over to eat and drink again, if it weren't for the sake of the child in her sister-in-law's belly, she would have turned her face a long time ago.
"Alright, don't be angry. The more you worry about such a person, the more energetic she becomes, and when you don't answer her, it's good to cold her for a while, and when the sister-in-law gives birth to a child, she will stop. Lin Zhu smiled and persuaded Ruyu. I was afraid that she would be unhappy, so I changed the topic, "Your craftsmanship has become so good, my aunt must be very happy, I heard that your embroidery work is not sold in the town, it is all sold in the county, right?" ”
"Well, the last time you took me and my sister to the county, didn't we go to the embroidery village to buy embroidery thread, the shopkeeper of the embroidery village saw me and my sister's purse embroidered beautifully, so he asked us if we would like to work in their embroidery. However, my sister said that our craftsmanship was not good, so we could only make some small things, and asked him if he would accept it, but he actually accepted it. Ruyu was happy when she thought of it. When I came back to talk to Xiaoli Xiaowan and them, they all said that they would send the embroidery work to the embroidery village in the county, which was much more than the money given by the town. ”
"Then you've sold it for a lot of money." Lin Zhu looked at her smug appearance and asked with a smile. "My embroidery is not as good as my sister's, and the price is less, but, hehe, I learned to tie auspicious knots from Chang's mother, and my auspicious knots are strong and beautiful, and they sell very well." Ruyu snickered. After talking to Ruyu for a while, Lin Zhu went home. Before leaving, she ran into Liu Qiucui's mother, Wang, and wanted to say hello to her, but who knew that she snorted, turned her head and left, Lin Zhu shook his head funny, didn't care, and went home directly.
On the way home, I happened to meet Wang Zhuodun's father, and the old man Wang stopped her, "Miss Xiaozhu, thank you for your help to my family." "Grandpa Wang is too polite, in fact, it should be me Xie Lu Xie to your family, Uncle Wang and Second Brother Wang and Third Brother Wang have helped me a lot." Lin Zhu didn't want them to always thank him, "And with Uncle Wang here, I can rest assured about the affairs of Zhuangzi." Don't say thank you or no. "Hehe, well, thank you for your kindness." Old Man Wang smiled and left.
Lin Zhu returned home and told Chang's mother about what happened today, and Chang's mother said with a smile, "This kind of person can be found everywhere, but he loves to be greedy for a small bargain, so he doesn't get in the way, as long as he ignores her." When Village Chief Lin's family has money, she will bow her head and stammer. Chang's mother invited Lin Zhu to sit down, "Girl, I don't know whether to talk about some things or not." "Chang's mother has something to say." Lin Zhu looked at her face with embarrassment, but there was a hint of joy on her eyebrows.
"When I went to town a month ago, I found my head of the house, and he found my son, and I gave him the hundred taels to ransom him, and now he came back with a letter and said that he was already on his way. I wanted to ask the girl if I could give him something to do in the Zhuangzi, even if it was farming. "All along, Chang's mother always went out on those four days off every month, according to what she said when she came, to look for her husband. Now that even her son has been found, and the five-year period has not yet arrived, Lin Zhu also feels that she can't do without her, so she said, "Congratulations to Mother Chang for getting her wish." However, farming on Zhuangzi is a bit overkill, and there is still some money for selling watermelons, so I took out 3,000 taels to buy a house in the county seat first, and the rest of the money went to buy land, preferably in a place with mountains and rivers. What do you think? ”
"Girl, you're too ......," Chang's mother was a little speechless, "You trust us so much, how can we repay your great kindness." ”
"Mother Chang, you also know that there are few trustworthy people around me, you have always been very good to me and Fu Dou'er, and of course I trust your family. Although Uncle Lin also helped me, after all, he was the head of a village, and Uncle Wang couldn't be busy alone. Since Uncle Chang has this ability, of course I am willing to ask him to help.
"No matter what, Xie Lu, Miss Xie." After saying that, Chang's mother knelt down and kowtowed to Lin Zhu three times, Lin Zhu didn't react for a while, and when she came back to her senses, Chang's mother had already kowtowed, and Lin Zhu hurriedly helped her up. (To be continued......)
