"I'll sign it."

Zhao Xiangling didn't hesitate for long, didn't go to someone to check the authenticity of the content, opened the ink, and pressed his handprint on the IOU.

She believed that Lin Meiyi would not cheat her, because she didn't want anything from her at all.

But the Lin family didn't want her to do anything, but she couldn't forget their kindness to her.

Lin Youcai and his wife nodded in agreement with their daughter's approach, asked Lin Meiyi to put away the IOU, and beckoned the big guy to sit down and eat.

The arrival of the Zhang family made Zhao Xiangling very nervous for a while, and she only now knew that there was an old lady in the Lin family, who had never seen it before, and thought that the Lin family had Lin Meiyi, a few sisters and brothers.

Seeing that she was afraid of Zhang's, Liu hurriedly explained that her mother-in-law was very good, but she didn't go out much because she was sick, and at the same time briefly explained the population of the family, and reminded Zhao Xiangling not to disturb Zhang's rest if she had nothing to do in the future.

Zhao Xiangling responded one by one, she ate the meat and vegetables in the bowl nervously, and began to secretly observe the words and deeds of the Lin family.

In fact, she didn't know much about the situation of the Lin family, but she still had to know a little more about Wang Yun, and she was busy running around before, so she couldn't understand the situation of the Lin family, so she had a preconceived idea and set a position for the Lin family from their clothes at the beginning.

In Zhao Xiangling's opinion at the beginning, the Lin family was dressed simply, wearing all old clothes, and it seemed that the family conditions were only at the level of food and clothing.

But the Lin family has valuables such as ox carts, and they eat three meals a day like the rich people in the city, and there are several dishes at every meal, both meat and vegetarian, which are better than what her family ate during the New Year.

In addition, Lin Meiyi gave her twenty taels of silver at once, which was the silver she put on her body, not the same parents who wanted to come, what does this mean?

This shows that the children of the Lin family have at least twenty taels of private houses in their hands, and the daughters of the village chiefs of their villages are not so generous.

Therefore, now Zhao Xiangling is becoming more and more unable to understand the Lin family's background.

But one thing is for sure, the Lin family has some family background, but I don't know what kind of family background it makes a living.

Zhao Xiangling's mind was full of questions, but when she first arrived, she was embarrassed to ask too much, so she pressed it in her heart first, planning to go to the Wang family's workshop and ask the people there.

Lin Meiyi saw Zhao Xiangling's careful thoughts, smiled, and asked directly: "The money you owe must be repaid, do you have any plans for the future?"

Lin Meiyi didn't mention it, the Liu family almost forgot about this important question, and now when she heard her ask, she warmly invited:

"Why don't you follow my family to make hairpins? I think you're a clever girl, and it's not a problem to support yourself. ”

"Yiyi, what do you think?" Liu asked Lin Meiyi with a smile, after all, she just mentioned this matter, and it was her daughter who really made the decision.

But she thought her daughter would definitely agree.

Lin Meiyi nodded and said with a smile: "It's okay." ”

Zhao Xiangling asked in surprise: "Are you also making hairpins?" ”

She remembered that Miss Wang's small workshop was also making hairpins, of course, in addition to hairpins, they also made other gadgets, all of which were very novel, and she had never seen them.

Could it be that the hairpins that the Lin family is making are also taken over from Miss Wang?

Lin Meiyi saw Zhao Xiangling's suspicious expression, and couldn't help but chuckle, "I don't make the same kind of hairpin as her, but the choice is yours, you can go with her if you want, but you can't delay the housework at home." ”

"No, no, no!" Zhao Xiangling hurriedly shook her head, "Then I'll follow you, so close to home, I can take care of it." ”

"And, I believe that Miss Lin, you will not do badly." Zhao Xiangling added with a smile.

Lin Meiyi noticed that she no longer affectionately called herself Yiyi.

Very good, it seems that Zhao Xiangling has realized that she is not an innocent girl who is pretending to be an adult.

Lin Meiyi was very happy not to be regarded as a child pretending to be an adult, and Zhao Xiangling's choice eased her depression a lot, so she said a few more words.

"You won't regret choosing me, you come to the backyard embroidery room to find me after helping my mother do the housework tomorrow morning, and I'll tell you about the rules in the embroidery room."

Zhao Xiangling bowed, "Okay." ”

After eating the meal and saying what he had to say, the big guys dispersed and went back to their rooms to rest.

However, Erya and Goudan did not go back to their room after washing, but knocked on Lin Meiyi's door.

"Come in."

The eldest sister's chuckle came from the house, and the sister and brother laughed, and immediately pushed open the door and walked in.

As soon as the second girl entered the house, she rushed into her sister's arms, and she was delicate for a while, and then she withdrew from her sister's arms.

Goudan sat on the kang, twisted a piece of pastry on a plate, and quietly added food to himself, eating the table full of crumbs.

Lin Meiyi led Erya over, and as soon as she raised her eyes, she saw the mess on the kang, and her brows suddenly furrowed.

"I'll clean it up when I'm done!" The dog hurriedly spoke, for fear that the eldest sister would slap it down.

When Lin Meiyi heard this, her brows relaxed, she sat down on the edge of the kang, and asked suspiciously, "Why are you two looking for me at night?" ”

"We have questions for you." Erya said seriously.

Lin Meiyi looked at the dog, this kid had already licked his fingers clean, climbed down the kang, took the rag she put on the window edge, and carefully cleaned the crumbs on the kang, not daring to be sloppy at all, cleaning very seriously.

Sensing her gaze, he raised his head and asked suspiciously while wiping, "Eldest sister, why did you tear up Sister Zhao's deed of sale?" ”

Hearing this, Lin Meiyi smiled helplessly, "You guys are here to ask this?" ”

The sister and brother nodded, they thought about it for a long time and didn't understand why the eldest sister did this.

Lin Meiyi didn't expect her sister and brother to think about it at the same time, and she felt pleasantly surprised, so she didn't show it on her face, but she had already made up her mind to tell her sister and brother more about human relations in the future.

"You've been listening to the cause and effect of this, you should be clear, right?" Lin Meiyi asked.

The sister and brother nodded, they had already figured it out, but because they figured it out, they couldn't understand the eldest sister's behavior of tearing up the deed.

The eldest sister promised to take Zhao Xiangling in, and also took the money to redeem the deed of sale for Zhao Xiangling, then this deed of sale should be the eldest sister's, Zhao Xiangling herself said that it is okay to be a slave or a maid, why doesn't the eldest sister want this slave?

Anyway, to put it mildly, Erya and Goudan just think that Zhao Xiangling has picked up a big bargain, and it is not worth it for the eldest sister.

Lin Meiyi learned the thoughts of the two, and her heart was warm and grateful.

Holding one shoulder with one hand, he explained carefully: "If you promise to help her, you will help her, and I don't want her to do anything, just tear it up, isn't it just a slave?" I'll buy two in a few days, and my father will work so hard to serve the fields alone, it's time to add two more right-hand men to him. ”

"Huh?" The sister and brother were stunned, a little unresponsive, weren't they talking about tearing up the deed? Why is it now about buying slaves?
