Liulang was afraid that He Mai would misunderstand, so he said in a good voice: "If it weren't for the sudden mention of the matter of falling in love, I wouldn't have mentioned his family in a dignified manner, and their Xu family ...... with me."

As if he had been shocked to think of something, Rokuro suddenly took the peace lock that Lin'er was playing with in his little hand and looked through the patterns on it.

Seeing that he was behaving differently, He Mai couldn't help but look over curiously, and saw the three words on the peace lock: Xu Bulin.

Xu Pingyao's sisters, as well as Liulang's former good brother Xu family's son-in-law, are all surnamed Xu. And Lin'er's name is Xu Bulin......

So, is it possible for Lin'er to ......

He Mai looked at Rokuro with a solemn face, turned the peace lock over and over, and estimated that what he guessed should be the same as himself.

She didn't speak, just waited for Rokuro to put the peace lock back into Lin'er's little hand with a slight distraction.

"Lin'er is also surnamed Xu, I can't imagine such a coincidence." Rokuro said with a faint smile to Hemai.

He Mai understood and nodded slightly, "It should just be the same surname." There are so many surnames in the world, how can they be of the same blood as the person you know? ”

Liulang smiled: "Yes, you are right, how many people in the world have the surname Xu, and how many do I know?" ”

Between laughing and chatting, Chunhua knocked on the door outside, and He Mai knew that He Lin was finished with Chunhua, so he hurriedly got up and went to open the door.

Chunhua had a look of confusion on her face, so she just took Xiaohu over, but she didn't ask Lin'er to go to the room to rest.

Lin'er was so happy to go to bed with Liulang, without crying or making trouble, she sat obediently next to Liulang and watched him wipe his arrows and bows.

When He Mai saw the appearance of the spring flowers, he was a little relieved that he couldn't get rid of the Qin family, and went out of the house to visit the Qin family's house.

Qin's face was not as relaxed and happy as in the next day, but with a hint of sadness and stagnation.

Seeing He Mai enter the house, Qin put away his unhappiness, and said reluctantly and gently: "Lin'er is in your room tonight, can it be in the way?" It's better to leave it with me, and I'll take care of him. ”

"Lin'er and Liulang kiss! I wish it was gluing together! I can't tell the difference, and you want to see him even more. He Mai said with a smile.

"That's good, that's good......" Qin nodded and replied like this.

Seeing that she was depressed, He Mai knew that He Lin should have told the Qin family about her refusal to go to the imperial capital.

She shouldn't have mentioned this matter again, but at this moment, she couldn't help but say to the Qin family: "Actually, it's good for my brother to stay at home." Everyone has their own ambitions, and studying to catch the exam is a successful Yangguan Road, but it may not be suitable for my brother. He stays at home, and he doesn't necessarily plough the fields, isn't Rokuro and I planning to open a bigger store this year? At that time, my brother will go to the store to help and be a second shopkeeper, which is also good. ”

Qin Shi listened to He Mai's relief, and his face was still sad, "But your brother is clearly a seedling of reading...... He has a weak temperament and does business, isn't he waiting to be bullied? ”

He Mai smiled: "If you say so, officialdom is unpredictable, I don't know how many times more complicated than doing business." ”

The Qin family stopped, and said quietly: "It is your father's wish to make the Lin family a champion, and it is also the wish of our ancestors of the Lin family. ”

He Mai was silent for a while, and said in a low voice: "Grandma, we still have a little tiger in our family, right?" Since his brother is the material for learning, Xiaohu will not be bad. Besides, with me and Rokuro here, we will be able to ensure that Xiaohu will be free and unrestrained in the future. ”

These words made Qin's face a lot happier, and she sighed and silently let go of her eyes.

……

……

It is not yet a famine year, and the town is not as quiet and prosperous as when the refugees came, and I heard that there are still many refugees in Qinglu Village, so He Mai also put down the idea of reopening the bun shop.

The family lived in the house and rarely walked around the village.

The family had enough to eat, but He Mai had heard that several families in the village had been eating for several days.

But on this day, those families who couldn't eat food gathered in front of Lizheng's house to cry, causing most of the people in the village to come out and watch.

"There's nowhere to buy rice and grain, I hoarded hundreds of catties of sorghum a year ago, but it was snatched away by that group of refugees!" Tian Laohan cried with tears in his eyes, and kept wiping his eyes with his black sleeves.

Li was listening silently with a cigarette pouch in his mouth, his face was depressed.

"We are old and hungry, and we don't have anything to gnaw on the bark of the tree, but there are nursing children and confinement women at home! This is to starve us to death! Tian Laohan's mother-in-law cried.

"The county order has set up porridge shacks and placed residences for those scoundrels, but we, the well-behaved croppers, are going to become starving ghosts, where is such a reason!"

Another villager, who had been hungry for a few meals, said indignantly.

"Why should the relief food in the town be given to those refugees? I've heard that people are dying of hunger in the nearby villages! Could it be that our lives are not as important as those people? We have been honest all our lives, but we have never done that evil thing of killing people and setting fires! ”

Li Zheng couldn't listen to it anymore, shook the cigarette pouch in his hand fiercely, and his face was gloomy as if it was going to rain: "I'll go to the town next day and find the county order to go!" ”

The crowd of black oppressors was silent for a while, but soon someone muttered in a low voice: "What's the use of looking for the county order?" When the relief food was delivered, everyone starved to death! ”

Li Zheng's face turned white again, and he stared at the crowd for a while: "Then what do you say?" ”

Fang just muttered that the man stretched his neck, and quickly glanced behind him, "Who in the village has more food, can't you take out some relief first?" Can you help a foreign mother-in-law and baby, and endure to watch your neighbors starve to death for decades? ”

The directivity of these words is too obvious, isn't it just talking about the Lin family?

Li Zheng's face froze, and he glanced back behind him.

Behind him, the Qin clan and Chunhua stood together, and next to Chunhua stood Lin'er, holding Xiaohu in her arms.

Lin'er was holding a frozen pear and looked at everyone without knowing what to do.

The eyes of all the villagers looked at the two women of the Lin family in unison, and Chunhua's face was flushed, and she was a little weak.

He Lin returned home for a while, and the food at home was even better than during the Chinese New Year.

There are five adults and two children in the family, and there are always two meat dishes on the table at every meal, and the staple esophagus made of white rice and white noodles is enough to eat.

In such a season of natural and man-made disasters, looking around, I am afraid that there are few people in ten miles and eight towns on such days.

If the family has enough food, if these people really want her family to take food out for relief...... But how can you refuse?

Thinking about it, Chunhua took two steps back, hid behind Qin, and hung her head.

The people in the village were just talking before, but when they saw the cowardly appearance of the Lin family's woman, their thoughts of not reporting much hope were gradually ignited - the Lin family earned so much silver and changed the big house, and the family was afraid that they would not be able to eat all the food!

Even if you give them some relief food, what is it?
