Chapter 3: Forced Marriage
She forgot, she had no silver.
Lin Xiaojiu raised his eyes and glanced at Luo Xuanze, sighed slightly in his heart, and said apologetically to Liu Langzhong: "I'm really sorry, I came out in a hurry, and I forgot to bring the silver, so I'll go back and get it." ”
In the same village, how could Liu Langzhong not know her difficulties, waved his hand again and again and said that he owed it first, and went to the mountains to collect medicine with a small basket.
Lin Xiaojiu sighed, raised his eyes and smiled at Luo Xuanze, "Silly big man, I told you your name, you have to remember it." ”
Luo Xuanze nodded, his dark eyes were as clear as water, so sincere that Lin Xiaojiu couldn't bear to lie to him.
Although he didn't remember the past, he could also know that Lin Xiaojiu was helping him, and even he knew that the wounds on his body were all dealt with by her, his movements were gentle, and his fingers were soft, making him feel very relaxed with her.
So when he found out that she was gone, he immediately chased her out.
Lin Xiaojiu blinked, and a smile flashed in his eyes, "Your name is Lin Xiaoze, your brother is my younger brother, and you came to join my sister, if others want to ask about it in the future, you will say so." ”
"Brother, sister?" Luo Xuanze frowned, feeling that something was wrong in his heart, but he knew that it was Lin Xiaojiu who saved him, treated his wounds, and took him to see a doctor, Lin Xiaojiu was not the one who wanted to harm him.
Thinking about it carefully, Luo Xuanze nodded seriously, "Well, I'm my younger brother, and I'm here to join my sister." ”
Lin Xiaojiu almost laughed out loud when he saw his serious and innocent appearance, and took him back to Wen's courtyard with a smile.
When the two entered the courtyard, Wen happened to yawn and walked out of the room, and when he saw the appearance of the two people who had just returned from outside, he immediately threw the wet cloth towel in his hand into the wooden basin.
"In the early morning, why don't you pick up at home to cook and laundry, and run out with a big man? I'm afraid that others won't know that you picked up a wild man and came back! ”
Yesterday, he had already pulled out the gold ore in Lin Xiaojiu's hand, and he didn't find a place to pick up the gold ore, and he suffered such a big loss, Wen's face was naturally not good, and he didn't have the heart to coax Lin Xiaojiu to take out something again.
Lin Xiaojiu frowned, but when he thought of the consultation fee owed by Liu Langzhong, he still opened his mouth, "Auntie, I just found out that he seems to have hit his head, and I don't remember what happened before, so I took him to Liu Langzhong to have a look, can you lend me a few copper plates, and I will ...... the consultation fee."
"What's the fee? What is the consultation fee? Wen shouted loudly at the top of his voice, reached out and picked up the broom on the wall and hit the two of them, "You money-loser!" On weekdays, asking you to make up some money for your family is like asking for your life, and you are very happy to spend money on wild men! You're capable now, aren't you? Then get out of here! Don't suck my blood! ”
Lin Xiaojiu trembled with anger, and the hand at her side tightened hard, and her white fingertips showed her mood.
In the past, she always wanted to spend some silver to settle things, but she didn't know that the appetite of the evil wolf would be raised, and the dowry left by her mother had been looted by the Wen family, and now she can make the Wen family worry about the value, and the only thing left is to marry the rich man Liu in the village as a concubine and exchange some silver, looking at this situation, the Wen family just wants to force her through Luo Xuanze's matter!
But what Wen didn't know was that her Lin Xiaojiu was no longer a soft bun to be kneaded, and she never planned to let go of the concubine who bullied her by Liu's rich family in her previous life.
Lin Xiaojiu took a deep breath, forcibly suppressed the anger surging in his heart, and said aggrievedly: "Auntie, that's the money I owe, as long as Auntie pays it back for me, I will agree to what Auntie said before." ”
After all, the broom in Wen's hand didn't fall on her, and when she heard what she said, her eyes lit up, and she immediately threw the broom and laughed, "Oh, feed me a little wine, you finally did the right thing!" Wait, my aunt will send silver to Liu Langzhong! ”
Liu Langzhong's house was in the west of the village, but Wen went to the east of the village with small steps.
A hint of ridicule flashed in Lin Xiaojiu's eyes, the land in the east of the village was occupied by the mansion of the rich man Liu, what the Wen family was doing, he could figure it out with his toes.
But it doesn't matter, she didn't plan to avoid it, mining that gold mine, she doesn't have manpower and power now, she knows a little about the connections in the hands of Rich Liu in her previous life, and the old man himself is sick and won't live long, she can take advantage of this time to grab those things from him.
She thought for a while and raised her eyes to look at Luo Xuanze, "Xiao Ze, my sister may soon marry into the family of the rich man Liu in the village, and then you and I will go to live in that big mansion in the east of the village, okay?" ”
Luo Xuanze glanced at the disappearing figure outside the door, and quietly clenched his fists, "Why does my sister want to marry?" Is it because of the money I owe because I was treated before? ”
"No, that's just an excuse," Lin Xiaojiu smiled, pretending to be relaxed, "We're penniless now, and where we go is just jumping from one fire pit to another, the left and right are about the same, so let's change to a better one, maybe, I just got married, and Rich Liu was washed to death by my Chongxi?" ”
Hearing her words, Luo Xuanze was not comforted, but was even more worried in his heart, but he also had a thought that became more and more determined.
Lin Xiaojiu is very good, he doesn't allow anyone to bully her!
"Okay, I'll accompany you to Rich Liu's house."
"Hmm!" Lin Xiaojiu nodded, the smile on his face was like a morning glow.
Two days later, Lin Xiaojiu changed into a red shirt and skirt, and entered the Liu family's mansion in a half-old sedan chair, followed by her "silly brother" who came to join her sister.
There is no scene of red makeup, no guard of honor to greet relatives, and there is not even a ceremony in the church.
Lin Xiaojiu sat on the edge of the bed with his head on his head, and clenched the half of the scissors hidden in his sleeve tighter.
"Squeak-"
The door of the cave room was pushed open, and the sound of a staggering old footsteps accompanied by the sound of crutches hitting the ground gradually approached, Lin Xiaojiu scolded in his heart, this rich man Liu was already terminally ill, and he still coveted the young girl, and he deserved to suddenly be unable to sleep in his previous life!
"Wine, my little beauty......"
The hijab on his head was light, and an old and thin paw touched Lin Xiaojiu's chin, an old man over sixty years old wantonly looked at the delicate little lady wrapped in red in front of him, his wrinkled lips snorted silently, and the urgency in his eyes was undisguised.
A flash of disgust and hatred flashed in her eyes, and she turned her head away from his touch.
Rich Lord Liu's face was sallow, sensing her resistance, a touch of gloom flashed in his eyes, he suddenly threw his crutches, and eagerly threw her on the bed, his old face was hideous and terrifying, "Since you have entered the door of my Liu family, you should think about how to serve me comfortably!" If you don't know what to do, I'll throw you into the green building!" Don't struggle, let me have a ......."
