Chapter Fifty-Nine: I Seek to Kill and Bury Corpses
Having won the respect of the Lin and Bai families, Old Man Tian nodded happily.
The three families simply chose a place together, just between the Bai family and the Tian family, there was a room with a pile of stones, spacious enough to be just right, with sand as paper and stone as a table.
After setting the place, he killed a wild rooster and sprinkled the chicken's blood in a circle, even if the school was officially established.
After the celebration, the families went home to rest.
Early the next morning.
Lin Ximiao was still in a daze, and was woken up by a series of sisters.
"Yue'er, what's the matter?" Lin Ximiao struggled to stand up.
Yesterday, the old man was late and too tired.
"The old man is waiting for you at the door, saying that he wants to discuss the matter of the field with you."
Seeing that she was awake, Lin Xiyue ran to the edge of the basin and carefully groomed her hair, obviously just woken up.
Lin Ximiao's mind was confused, she came to her so early to ask for it, where did she get a few acres of land?
You can't go out.
"Yue'er, you go and invite Old Man Tian to tea first." Lin Ximiao said.
Lin Xiyue put down the simple version of the wooden comb: "Sister, don't joke with me, we have tea there?" Even if there is, all the people who came yesterday were used up, and now there is not even a bowl of grape frost sweet water. ”
Listening to her little mouth, Lin Ximiao glanced back at her: "What?" Don't you welcome Mr. Tian's family to come? ”
"Not really." Lin Xiyue twisted her body and sat down on the stone: "I just don't like the second daughter-in-law of their family, holding the shelf, obviously I just don't want to come." But when you eat, you don't have a soft mouth at all, even if you grab soft rice. ”
Lin Xiyue puffed out her cheeks.
Lin Ximiao is very strange, she has some impression of Lin Ruansoft's child, but Yue'er has always been at odds with girls on weekdays, when did she get angry because she was robbed of food and eaten by Soft?
The voice of Old Man Tian Xingchen speaking sounded in the courtyard.
couldn't drag it anymore, Lin Ximiao got up and gathered her hair, got up and went out.
"Old man, why are you here, as a junior, I should be visiting you."
Lin Ximiao went out with a smile.
Lin Xuanhe was talking to Old Man Tian in the courtyard, and when he saw her come out, he knew that the two of them had something to say, so he called the eldest sister and left.
Looking at his back, Old Man Tian stroked his beard and said with a smile: "Your Lin family has such a young master, it will be difficult in the future." ”
Lin Ximiao smiled and said modestly, she found that since her exile, the little bun seemed to be particularly popular with the elderly.
"Miss Lin, I won't go around in circles with you, I just want to see the piece of land you said when I came so early today."
Old Man Tian stared at Lin Ximiao, he got up early today and walked around the Lin family, but he didn't see an inch of cultivated land.
Their family has come, and if there is no land, it will cost the lives of the family.
"Old man, you come with me." Lin Ximiao said with a smile.
Her attitude was calm, which relieved Old Man Tian's tense mind a little.
The two entered the mountain one after the other.
Old man Tian looked at the green on the mountain, and frowned: "Girl, don't cheat me, this old man, my Tian family, in this Tianjia Village, there is still some power." ”
Lin Ximiao didn't talk, but changed the topic: "Old man, were the chestnut cakes delicious yesterday?" ”
"It's okay, girl, what the hell do you mean."
Listening to Old Man Tian's voice, Lin Ximiao turned around and smiled, and brushed away the grass with her hand.
"Old man, these are the raw materials for making chestnut cakes, as far as I know, there are no such things as chestnuts on the market today, we make them, how much can you sell, how much."
"I can't guarantee that it will be more than enough to pay next year's taxes."
Old Man Tian looked at the small green balls in his eyes, and the tip of his tongue recalled yesterday's chestnut cake.
The taste was sweet and fluffy, and he estimated that the pastries of large families were like this.
"These little balls, are they chestnuts?" Old Man Tian asked suspiciously.
Lin Ximiao squatted down, smashed one open, took out the chestnut kernel and handed it to Old Man Tian, and ate one herself.
"Probably God has mercy, we were exiled here, and we really didn't have anything to eat, and we found out that this green ball ball was the chestnut recorded in the book."
Lin Ximiao casually talked nonsense, anyway, Shangshu Mansion has been raided, and countless books have been burned, and what books the original owner has read, he knows that the original owner himself knows.
Old Man Tian took a bite of the chestnut, and the sweet smell really spread in his mouth.
"It's strange that those people didn't find anything when they went up the mountain, and your Lin family is really protected by God."
Old Man Tian looked at Lin Ximiao with excitement and guilt.
"Big girl, you told me all the secrets of the Lin family's life, I, I thought just now that you were going to kill my old man and bury him in this ravine, I really lived in vain at such an old age."
Lin Ximiao had a black line for a while, killing people and burying corpses, the old man's thinking is quite jumpy.
"Miss Lin, can you still sell me that chestnut cake?" Old Man Tian asked tentatively.
"Yes, what's not to do."
Lin Ximiao smiled: "It's just that old man, you have to do me a favor, you also saw it, our gang was exiled, there is nothing, and it is up to you to buy and sell things." ”
As soon as he heard that it could be sold, Old Man Tian smiled widely, as if he saw countless pieces of silver, and he poured it into his pocket.
stroked his beard, and his voice was amplified a little: "Of course, they all moved over, let's close the door, we are a family." ”
"Grandpa, then I'll help you down the mountain, I'll make a few cages tonight, and let my uncle and aunt sell them first, okay?"
Lin Ximiao climbed along the pole, her mouth was as sweet as if she didn't want money.
All the way down the mountain, the coaxing old man Tian even had to go to the back of the three sons.
Sending Old Man Tian home, Lin Ximiao turned around and went to Bai's house, just in time to stop Bai Youling, who was about to go up the mountain.
told Bai Youling about selling chestnut cakes.
After listening to Lin Ximiao's words, Bai Youling nodded at that time: "Sister Lin, everything is up to you." ”
"Okay, I'll tell you first." Lin Ximiao squatted on the ground, scratching the sand with a branch.
The money from the sale of chestnuts was planned to be left to the Tian family.
If the Lin Bai family has anything to buy, they are all from the Tian family, so naturally they can't be too much.
Then there is the work of picking chestnuts, one is that the Bai family is all girls, and it is not safe to go up the mountain, and in one, she has selfish intentions and wants these girls to make chestnut cakes and listen to books.
Then Bai Youling selected the clever one from among them and helped her manage the Lin and Bai families, from furniture and things to trivial matters such as food and clothing.
After all, she has to complete the task, she can't stay in the village all the time, Xiao Baozi and those men have to charge outside, and someone at home must support her.
Listening to Lin Ximiao's arrangement, Bai Youling also completely settled down.
In this way, it can be regarded as completely kneading the two Lin and Bai families.
After discussing everything, the two of them directly notified Lin Bai and the two of them to go to the school for a meeting in the evening.
