Chapter 21: Asking for Favors

Yun San looked at the figure that suddenly ran away, his eyes were a little deeper, and the corners of his lips pursed into a meaningful smile.

Lin Yanniang went to the kitchen and saw that her mother was killing chickens, so she silently went to deal with rabbit meat.

This kind of thing, as an Orion family, is not a difficult thing for them, but she still didn't let the two younger brothers help, let alone let the younger sister see it.

While he was busy, there were two joyful greetings from the courtyard.

It's the little sister and cousin Lin Xinghua.

Thinking of the greedy little girl who knew how to coax people, Lin Yanniang didn't feel it.

Compared with Lin Jinhua, who always looked down on their second room with a condescending face, this little cousin can be regarded as the closest to their second room.

“…… Well, it's a big guy, and there's meat to eat tonight. Lin Xue's voice came from the kitchen door.

"My cousin is amazing, I hit the big guy last time, and I hit the big guy again today, I want to be bolder, I want to go hunting!"

Seven-year-old Lin Xinghua and four-year-old Lin Xue had the best relationship, and at this time they entered the kitchen hand in hand, but the words that came out made Lin Yanniang, who was squatting at the back door, a little crying and laughing.

"Second aunt." Lin Xinghua greeted Lin Song sweetly.

"You're here." Lin Song glanced at the little girl with a smile and didn't say anything.

There are three girls in the big room, the big girl is arrogant, and she has never looked down on the sister in the second room, although the second girl is well-behaved, although she rarely comes to the second room, but her personality is much better than that of the big girl, and she can get along well with her cousins.

This little girl has a lively and cute temperament, is very likable, and is also the child who runs most often in the second room, and she and Xue'er are sisters who grow up together and have the best relationship.

The most laughable thing is that the little girl likes Yan Niang very much, and she used to shout that she wanted to learn martial arts to be a hunter, and she went up the mountain to hunt whatever meat she wanted.

Merely...... I'm afraid of being tired of practicing martial arts, and I'm afraid of blood when I handle the prey, and in the end, I only come over after my cousin comes back from hunting, and I will have a meal if I have meat, and I won't be disappointed if I don't have it.

"Cousin, my mother asked me to ask, what kind of prey is there today, grandpa hasn't eaten meat for a long time."

Lin Xinghua came to the back door of the kitchen while speaking, and stood on the threshold with Lin Xue, staring curiously at the things in Lin Yanniang's hand while not forgetting the task.

"How long has it been since Grandpa had eaten meat?" Lin Yanniang didn't look at her little cousin, she was constantly busy at hand, and her tone was very flat.

"The day before yesterday, you came back from hunting and didn't have any prey, you didn't eat it, yesterday at noon, grandma cut a piece of meat and went home, stewed back to the pot meat, I also tasted a piece, there was still a little left in the evening, I didn't eat it."

Lin Xinghua explained seriously.

"Yesterday my family ate fish, and my sister went up the mountain to catch it." Lin Xue hurriedly said what she was eating on the side.

Pork is meat, rabbit is meat, chicken is meat, and fish is of course meat.

So, their family also ate meat yesterday and today.

"Oh, I knew I was going to your house yesterday." When Lin Xinghua heard this, she immediately pursed her lips with some annoyance.

"There are also today." Lin Xue can understand the mood of her little cousin, who doesn't like to eat meat? Therefore, she warmly invited Lin Xinghua.

"Then I'll go back after dinner." When Lin Xinghua heard this, she nodded happily and agreed.

She looked at the things in the lobby sister's hand expectantly, but when she saw that it was a little scary, she quickly closed her eyes, stepped back in fear, and stood inside the threshold.

"Let's go play in the yard and call you when we eat." Lin Song saw that the two little girls were scared, and they knew that they were a little scary when dealing with their prey, so they hurriedly reminded them.

The two little girls hurriedly turned around and ran into the front yard.

Lin Yanniang said "hehe" and sped up the movements in her hands.

"Yan Niang, ...... over there of your grandfather" Lin Song looked at his eldest girl with some concern.

"Don't pay attention to it, he is not hungry in the big room, our family has not tasted meat for a long time." Lin Yanniang's calm tone was tinged with a faint coolness.

Their Lin family's two rooms have long been separated.

They did not have to live in two old people, and they received the least amount of family property, and there was almost no land.

Because her father Lin Ping'an is a hunter, he can only make a living by hunting.

But they asked for one tael each of the two elders every month, but they never broke it.

Where do the poor need to pay back so much in such a separate way? Many second and youngest sons from poor families will still default on their money.

But their Lin family, because there is a daughter in the family, married into the town and lives a big family.

Mrs. Lin, who raised such a rich daughter, felt that her life could not be too bad, so as not to let her daughter-in-law's family look down on her.

The dowry gifts I received back then were all in my hands, and now I am also subsidizing the big house, but I ask that the second room must not be less, otherwise I will lose face if I can't provide a good life.

It turned out that when her father could run all over the mountains, it was not so difficult to hunt, and although the family was not good, he could still give two taels of silver a month.

But three years ago her father almost died.

After that, she could no longer go to the mountains to hunt, and the family was going to run out of food, and the old lady thought that her father was deliberate, and wanted to take the opportunity not to pay the old silver, and she came to scold.

In the end, after confirming that her father really couldn't hunt, she shut up, and didn't say that she would continue to ask for Feng Laoyin, nor did she say that she didn't have to give Feng Laoyin anymore.

And so it dragged on.

Later, at the age of twelve, she carried a bow and arrow on her back and followed a group of village uncles and brothers up the mountain, and single-handedly provoked the head of the family.

Life is naturally difficult, the two younger brothers are still so young, and the younger sister is still holding in her hands, and the family can only be borne by her.

She refused to give Feng Laoyin again, because now she is the one who makes money in the second room, not her father.

The old lady made trouble twice, but was finally beaten back by the old man, and no one ever mentioned Feng Laoyin again.

It's just that when she comes back from hunting, there will always be people who come to the door to ask for benefits.

It's not that grandpa wants to eat or grandma wants to eat, as long as there is something at home, whether it is to be sold for money or not, he always takes it and grabs it, and never empty-handed.

Later, she learned to be obedient, and the prey she wanted to sell was never brought home, but was handed over to Uncle Lin Liu to help her deal with it, and finally gave her the money.

Yesterday, she played a big guy, and the money was naturally not bad, but she saved a man and came back, and the house was blocked by people, so naturally no one mentioned eating meat.

And all her prey was sold that day, and indeed nothing was left, because the money owed to Yaolu had to be repaid.

Today I hit the big guy again, the harvest was better than the day before yesterday, and there was still a person at home who was recuperating from her injuries, so she brought back these prey, and planned to have a good meal for the family.

But I didn't expect someone to know that the news was coming quickly, so they directly sent the little girl over to spread the word.

If it had been before, she would naturally let go, but after the trouble the night before, and then thinking of what she said on the mountain today, she frowned and sneered in her heart.
