The crowd gradually dispersed, and Widow Lin also took a broom and prepared to go home. Just a few steps away, I heard a sweet and greasy voice: "Auntie! ”

Looking back, it was Xin Jiaoniang who was holding her younger brother, and she wanted to say that the children of the Xin family looked very good.

The most outstanding is Xin Jiaoniang, with red lips and white teeth, bright eyes and bright teeth. She doesn't look like a peasant girl at all, and it's not an exaggeration to say that she is an official lady.

Jiao Niang hugged Xin An and solemnly saluted Widow Lin: "Thank you Aunt Lin for your protection." That day, Lin Yu forced me, and it was Aunt Lin who helped me speak! Invite my aunt to my house for a cup of hot tea! ”

Widow Lin waved her hand: "Your father and mother also helped me in the past." I should protect you too, don't take it to heart. My identity is unlucky, so I won't go to your house. ”

After saying that, Widow Lin left. Jiao Niang knew that the bad luck that Widow Lin said meant her identity as a widow. The people in the village are ignorant and dislike widows, but in Jiao Niang's opinion, making friends with a person should be based on her character and virtue.

There are two flowers, one on each branch. Jiao Niang here has just experienced an inexplicable disturbance, but Xin Ping over there has sold the noodles smoothly.

After Xin Ping entered the town, he went to the post station to send a letter. Then I went to the largest "Tongfu Building" in town. The shopkeeper of "Tongfu Building" originally wanted to lower the price, but Xin Ping took the noodles to "Qingyuju" and asked for the price. The shopkeeper Tong was in a hurry, and he didn't lower the price, and took the initiative to add 30 yuan, so that Xin Ping would take the noodles to "Tongfu Building" to sell in the future.

Xin Ping took one or two or thirty coins and walked to the street in a daze. He never dreamed that a basket of vermicelli could make so much money!

Xin Ping first went to buy some white cotton cloth, and then ordered some sweet potatoes, so that everything could be delivered to the village carriage. The brother and sister said that if the noodles could be sold for money, the two of them would make more.

Thinking of his sister-in-law's entrustment, Xin Ping went to buy half a basket of coal. Xin Ping carried these coals on his back, after all, no one in the village used coal, and if it was known, he would definitely have to chew his tongue.

bought some rice cakes for Xin An, thinking about Jiao Niang's red and swollen fingers, Xin Ping gritted his teeth and bought a box of cream for Jiao Niang. Plus some meat and vegetables. The silver that had just arrived was gone.

On the carriage back to the village, the people in the same village shook their heads and sighed when they saw that Xin Ping had bought so many things. I'm afraid that the Xin family will be defeated soon.

Xin Ping naturally didn't know what the people in the village thought of them. also gave a few more money to drive the carriage to the door of Xin's house.

Jiao Niang watched Xin Ping move things home in a basket, and knew that the matter of selling vermicelli was done. She couldn't help but laugh along.

Jiao Niang stood at the door and smiled, shaking the eyes of Zhu Erlin who was passing by. Zhu Erlin was distracted and crashed into the tree in front of him.

Zhu Sanlin, who was following him, smiled sarcastically: "Second brother, be careful not to fall into the pond." ”

Zhu Erlin's face immediately turned red, but he still said stiffly: "My fair lady, the gentleman is good." What do you know? Zhu Sanlin smiled even more disdainfully.

When Jiao Niang saw the Zhu family brothers, she hurriedly waved her hand to them: "Second Brother Zhu, Third Brother Zhu." You wait, just so you bring what I'm going to give Aunt Zhu. ”

Jiao Niang motioned to Xin Ping to bring out a pot of vermicelli in the kitchen and give it to the Zhu brothers. Zhu Erlin took the noodles and said to Jiao Niang courteously: "Sister Jiao Niang, you are too polite, I will send you the basin later." ”

Xin Ping immediately stood between the two and said coldly: "No need, I'll pick it up later." ”

Jiao Niang didn't feel the dark turbulence between her brother and Zhu Erlin at all. She thought about sending the pot of vermicelli she left at home to Widow Lin later. Express her gratitude.

When Xin Ping put everything in order, Jiao Niang told Xin Ping about Widow Lin's help. Xin Ping gritted his teeth angrily when he heard this, they couldn't be stunned in this Panyun Village. They all come to the door!

Xin Ping pressed his temper and hugged Xin An. said that they would go together to thank Widow Lin. The three brothers and sisters walked towards Widow Lin's house like this.

Widow Lin's house was not far from the river, and as soon as the three brothers and sisters walked to the river, they saw Lin Ruyi washing clothes by the river. And she squatted alone by the river to wash, and the other aunts and daughters-in-law were far away from her.

Speaking of Lin Ruyi, the degree of tragedy in the original work is comparable to that of Xin Jianniang. Lin Ruyi died of her father when she was a child and lived with her mother.

It's just that both of them are very handsome. As the saying goes, there are many rights and wrongs in front of the widow's door. A few days after Lin Ruyi's father died, someone pried the doors and windows of their house in the middle of the night, and Widow Lin rushed out with a kitchen knife, scolding and shouting to attract the villagers, which turned the corner.

But the gossip can't be suppressed, what" saw the man who was from the house in the middle of the night, and walked out of Widow Lin's house. "I always see anyone taking things for Widow Lin's house."

In this way, Widow Lin became the imaginary enemy of the women of the whole village and the object of the men of the whole village. Widow Lin had to stand up and protect herself and her daughter. But the reputation of her mother and daughter can be said to be ruined.

The widow Lin in the original book finally died of illness, and the daughter she wanted to protect the most was also sent by the clan to be a concubine, and finally died tragically at the hands of the big house.

Thinking of this, Jiao Niang felt embarrassed, Lin Ruyi's appearance and character were obviously excellent. When she read it, she felt that I felt pity, and the damn author actually wrote about people so miserably.

"Ruyi girl, is your mother at home?" Xin Ping looked at his sister in a daze, shook his head and stepped forward to ask.

Lin Ruyi was taken aback, and looked up to see that it was Xin Ping. The face suddenly turned red, and it looked even better. She nodded, and spoke in a small voice: "My mother is at home, I'll take you there." ”

Jiao Niang looked at Lin Ruyi's graceful steps in front of her, and felt that this was a real classical beauty!

"Mother. Brother Xin and Sister Jiao are here. Lin Ruyi pushed open the door of the hall, and Widow Lin was making a fuss. Jiao Niang knew that this was to be sold to the merchant, and the merchant who walked the streets and alleys provided colored threads to the women in the village. And then recycle it for three pennies, and there are many people in the village who are doing this.

Widow Lin saw that the Jiao Niang brothers and sisters hurriedly put down the work in their hands and stood up: "Why are you two here, still holding Xin An, Ruyi hurry up and pour water." ”

Xin Ping hurriedly put the noodles on the table and said, "Auntie, don't bother, I heard about you relieving Jiao Niang." I came to thank you. After speaking, Xin Ping and Jiao Niang saluted Widow Lin at the same time.

Widow Lin hurriedly waved her hand and said, "Jiao Niang has already thanked me." I don't want anything, and you two should also save some flowers, after all, most of your family's land has been sold, and you have a younger brother to support. ”

Xin Ping and Widow Lin pushed for a while, and Jiao Niang hugged Xin An and looked at Widow Lin's house. Although you can see the poverty of the owner at a glance, the house is cleaned up. It can be seen that the owner of the house is a neat man.

Jiao Niang made up her mind and smiled at Widow Lin: "Auntie, you must accept this thing." I have something to ask you for help, and if you don't accept it, I won't dare to speak. ”

When Widow Lin heard this, she no longer shirked and accepted the noodles.

"Auntie, I said don't be angry, I want to hire you and Sister Ruyi to work for one tael of silver per person a month. What do you think? ”
