Chapter Twenty-Five: A Good-Hearted Girl
"Whew~~"
Qiqi's nostrils made a dissatisfied sound against the floor, and it didn't dare to disobey Min Huaiye's back, if it was in ancient times, why should it bend its knees.
However, the times have changed, and now it can only hide in the dark space, if it is not for the call of Min Huaiye, it is still waiting for the end of its life in the dark place.
Lin Xiaoyan and Lin Xiaohua left the east street when they met a stall selling breakfast, and they each ate a bowl of porridge and an egg.
At this time, Lin Xiaoyan saw that the ready-to-wear store where she bought clothes last night had opened early, so she went in and bought two big red satins, and then bought five catties of candy at the candy store.
"Sister, what do you mean by that?" Lin Xiaohua remembered that she had bought a lot of clothes and bed sheets last night, and she didn't understand why Lin Xiaoyan bought so many things?
And they just had breakfast, what did she do with so much sugar?
"Sister, listen to me, we don't have these things, we can't go home." Lin Xiaoyan said with a smile.
Lin Xiaoyan remembers the countryside in the new era, she likes to wear red clothes, they think it is called festivity, she can't use these things, but it is still good to give them to the grandmother of the original owner.
After all the things were ready, Lin Xiaoyan and Lin Xiaohua walked towards Niutian Village together.
If it weren't for the embarrassment of getting up in the morning to meet, she wouldn't have hid in her mother's house, looking at the white belly exposed in the sky, I don't know if Min Huaiye would have gotten up at this time.
However, none of this has anything to do with her, looking at Lin Xiaohua's expectant eyes, Lin Xiaoyan couldn't help but sigh in her heart.
A mother like Li is harsh and abuses her daughter in the new era, and if it is serious, she will be sentenced.
It's a pity that the rural people in this era are pedantic and patriarchal, and being a woman is simply sad, but Lin Xiaoyan will soon change her fate.
After walking about a kilometer and climbing over a mountain, the two of them walked almost another half kilometer before they saw the village in front of them.
It's not the same as the waterside village, the crops and vegetables in the fields and the fruits in the orchards are growing very well, and even the mountains in the distance are very lush.
For a while, Lin Xiaoyan remembered the old saying: Relying on the mountains to eat the mountains and relying on the water to draft the water.
As soon as Lin Xiaoyan walked to the entrance of the village, many villagers came forward to greet her: "Hey, isn't this Miss Xiaoyan?" I haven't seen you for a few days, and I'm back in a new dress. ”
"Eh, that's ...... Xiaohua, I remember that she married to a place where birds don't poop and chickens don't lay eggs, why did she come back in such a beautiful dress? ”
"Sister Xiaoyan's skirt is so beautiful."
Facing the doubts of the villagers, Lin Xiaoyan saw a little girl of four or five years old, with two pigtails on her head, wearing a patched dress that adults don't want, wearing pants that have been changed countless times on her lower body, and a pair of straw sandals for adults under her feet, she looked at Lin Xiaoyan with envy and said.
"Isn't this Sister Orchid, let's eat a piece of candy." Lin Xiaoyan found the name of the little girl in the memory of the original owner and said to her with a smile.
Then, she looked at the other villagers who came up and said, "Aunt Zhang, I haven't seen you for a long time, come, eat a piece of candy." ”
"Uncle Chen, you also eat a piece of candy."
"Isn't this Grandma Wu, I haven't seen you for a long time, your body is still so tough, come, eat a candy."
"Aunt Mei, you also eat a candy ......"
Lin Xiaoyan was not stingy at all, and gave candy to others whenever she met people, and the villagers who ate the candy couldn't help but sigh: "Did Xiaoyan pick up the gold ingot?" So generous? ”
"Haha, the gold ingots are so easy to pick up, I just sold a dish to a big restaurant in the city, I took the money to redeem my sister, these two pieces of red cloth are the silk I plan to give to my grandparents to make clothes for the New Year."
Lin Xiaoyan replied with a smile.
Sugar is rarer than meat in Niutian Village, and many people can't eat it once in their lives, because it's too expensive, and a small bag will cost hundreds of copper plates, and if you're not careful, you'll have to use up a few taels of silver.
That's a year's income from their frugality, which is used to buy candy, which is too cost-effective.
"Xiao Yan is really a good girl, she doesn't forget to honor her grandparents after making money"
The villagers who ate the candy given by Lin Xiaoyan praised one after another.
"My grandparents have worked hard for us for most of their lives, and now they have made money, so of course I honor them."
I don't know who it was, so I made a curious inquiry and asked, "How much did you earn?" ”
"Not much, just twenty-five taels of silver." Lin Xiaoyan explained honestly.
"Twenty-five taels?" The man who asked exclaimed, "So much silver, take it out quickly and I will see, I have grown so big, I have never seen what twenty-five taels of silver look like." ”
Lin Xiaoyan smiled ashamedly and replied: "I'm really embarrassed, I ransomed my sister back with twenty taels of silver, and then used the remaining five taels of silver to buy silk for my grandparents, and now I have no money." ”
When everyone heard this, they bought Lin Xiaohua back with twenty taels of silver, and instantly let out a sigh.
The big guy looked at Lin Xiaohua at the bottom of the mountain, and sighed one after another: "Xiaoyan, you have been deceived, how can it be worth twenty taels of silver with your sister's appearance." ”
"It's all a family, so if you don't lose it." Lin Xiaoyan replied with a smile: "Back then, my family was poor, and my mother married my sister to a poor place with bad mountains and rivers, and now that I am rich, of course I want to take my sister out of that kind of ghost place to enjoy happiness." ”
"Xiao Yan is really a good girl with a kind heart."
Some of the older villagers in the village knew that Lin Xiaoyan had been fooled as soon as they heard it, but even so, no one poked it again, more with the attitude of watching the excitement.
At this time, the Li family, who was cooking at home, twisted the cooked pig food, was feeding the pigs in the pigsty, and did not forget to curse in his mouth: "Lin Xiaoyan, you lose money, what do you run, now you have to do laundry and cooking, these things have to be done by the old lady, damn Du, on the grounds that he has the grandson of the Lin family in his stomach, he is too lazy to do it at home......"
"Lin Xiaoyan is waiting for you to come back one day, see how I clean up your ......"
Li poured the pig food in the bucket into the pig trough, and then twisted the wooden barrel and walked back, when suddenly a shouting voice came from outside the door: "Third aunt, Sister Xiaoyan is back." ”
What the?
Is the money-losing guy who killed a thousand knives really back?
Li put the wooden barrel in his hand to the side, and immediately walked towards the gate, the messenger was none other than Uncle Lin Xiaoyan's youngest son.
"Lin Xiaoxuan, you said that Lin Xiaoyan is back, where did you see it?" Li asked Lin Xiaoshui, a seven-year-old child in front of him.
"At the entrance of the village, Sister Xiaoyan is dressed beautifully, holding a big bag of candy in her hand, and she will send it when she sees someone." Lin Xiaoxuan recounted.
"What?" Li screamed and roared: "Stinky and shameless Lin Xiaoyan, my mother is bitter and tired at home, and when she comes back, she doesn't know how to go home first to help with housework, so she actually takes my candy and sends it outside, how can it be ......?"
Li said as he looked left and right, his eyes locked on a one-meter-long two-finger-wide wooden stick, and he picked it up and walked outside.
At the same time, she didn't let her curse in her mouth: "Lin Xiaoyan, my mother has to break your leg this time, see how you run in the future......"
