Chapter 184: Not telling the truth
On Chinese New Year's Eve, every family under Tianshou Mountain sticks peach charms, and the snow-shrouded Ling Village has a little more color.
At Lin Qiushan's house, the atmosphere of the New Year is particularly strong.
Wearing a new jacket, Dongxue, Hele, and Hexi, holding the snacks in their arms while eating while playing in the courtyard, Lin Qiushan led his eldest son and grandson to be busy defeathering the chickens, Geng took his eldest daughter-in-law and granddaughter to wash all kinds of fresh vegetables on the side, and Ma, who had a big belly, helped with some small work on the side.
There was a smile on everyone's face.
While Geng was busy working, he told his little daughter-in-law to go farther away, not to be next to this side, for fear that she would fall. Ma smiled well, but did not move under his feet.
The women of ordinary peasant families are still busy in the fields the day before giving birth, and they are not so precious. Since she had a body, her mother-in-law took her sister-in-law and eldest niece to take all the work, and she just sat and enjoyed it. Now the family is busy with the New Year's dinner, she can't help with a big job, she can still do a little help, and the child in her belly is not noisy.
"Mother, you sit here and watch, listen to grandma, don't lean over." The sensible Dongxue dragged a small stool over and pulled Ma to sit.
"Okay, mother, sit down." Ma responded with a smile and gently pinched his daughter's fleshy face. In the past six months, all kinds of food have been eaten, and this girl has grown a lot of meat, and her father will not recognize it if she comes back.
Dongxue looked up with a smile on her little face, and let her mother pinch it. handed over the dried fruit in his arms, "Mother eats dried fruit." ”
"Mother doesn't eat it, winter snow eats."
"Then mother, do you eat nuts? Winter snow will peel walnuts for you to eat. "The paper skin peach that my brother brought back is easy to peel, and it can be peeled in winter and snow, and it doesn't need to be smashed with a hammer.
"Okay, Dongxue will be peeled for my mother!"
Ma accepted his daughter's kindness, smiled and watched her trot into the house, and ran out with a bag of walnuts in her arms, and called her two brothers to peel walnuts together.
"Let's peel more for my mother, and when my brother says that my mother eats more walnuts, the younger brother in my belly will be very smart, and he will study like my brother in the future!"
"Then I'm going to be smart, too!"
He Le put the freshly peeled walnuts in his mouth, smacked and ate them deliciously, and was so angry that Dongxue went to pat him, saying that he was grabbing food with his younger brothers and sisters.
Geng smiled and glanced at a few children, and sighed in his heart, in previous years, there was no shortage of food at home, but it was only enough for the family to have a full stomach, and how could there be such a wealth of fresh vegetables, fresh meat and fruits to eat in winter.
There is not so much money to save either.
Last night, she and the old man counted this year's income, and they didn't know, but they were shocked.
Since the old man went to the palace to play jewelry, he gave sixty-two taels before and after the king of Guanggong Fei Yue. The eldest daughter-in-law and eldest granddaughter not only brought back two good pieces of cloth, but also brought back ten taels of silver, which was less than a month's work.
And she and her little daughter-in-law took over the work at home, and they also got more than two taels of silver. Coupled with the 20 gold obtained everywhere and Chang Shan's loss, the family has saved more than 300 taels of silver this year!
This is really unexpected. This year, the family was able to save this money. So happy that she and the old man didn't sleep well all night.
The old man consulted with her, and when he left, he would bring him ten taels of gold. This year, Xi'er gave a lot of subsidies to the family, and the family didn't have anything for her, so she gave her ten taels of gold, and I heard that the gold over there was valuable.
Thinking like this, Geng glanced at the door, "Is there a sound of footsteps, is it long enough to come back?" ”
When Dongxue heard this, he immediately jumped up, "I'll take a look!" ”
Lin Zhaoxia got up early in the morning to pack her things, and after a while, she was going to send Zhao Guangyuan and Changzhi back to Daqi, and then she was going back to Hangzhou.
When he finished cleaning up, he called Changzhi, so long that he muttered and refused to get up, and drilled into the bed, like a chrysalis, and buried himself in it.
Zhao Guangyuan frowned, slapped him on the back, and then Zhao Guangyuan also took a kick on his foot.
Zhao Guangyuan hissed, and was about to lift his quilt, so long that he called "mother", tore off the quilt and jumped into Lin Zhaoxia's arms, and hung it on her.
He hadn't slept enough.
Last night, he went out with his father and mother and uncle to have a reunion dinner in advance, and went to see the Bund together, had a good time outside, came back late, and talked to his father and mother all night, he didn't sleep enough at all. And I can't bear to be a mother.
Lin Zhaoxia hugged him, swayed around a few times, and coaxed him. Seeing his little head lying in his shoulder socket, and his small body hanging on himself, he felt a mother's love surging in his heart.
Zhao Guangyuan looked at it with some disapproval, turning over the age of six, where did he look like his mother when he was six years old.
Lin Zhaoxia glanced at Zhao Guangyuan while dangling his son, Zhao Guangyuan looked at her for a second, then lay back, pulled the quilt, and closed his eyes.
Lin Zhaoxia was amused to see it, and he shook him when he raised his legs, "You can't afford it, didn't you say you want to send me to the train station?" ”
"It's still early." Zhao Guangyuan turned his reluctance into friction, lying down and reluctant to get up.
It's good to miss the train.
Stretched out his hand from the quilt and gently dragged her, Lin Zhaoxia fell on the bed, woke up Changzhi, glanced at his father in a daze, and was glared at by his father, and automatically got into the quilt on the other side.
Zhao Guangyuan lifted the quilt, pulled Lin Zhaoxia and lay back, hugged her from behind, and rested his head in her shoulder socket. He couldn't bear her.
"I'll be back in my second year of junior high school."
I didn't want to be separated from her for a moment. Zhao Guangyuan closed his eyes and didn't respond.
"Just two days apart."
Still didn't respond, hugged tighter. Chang Zhi raised half of his body to look to the side, snorted, and then received a slap on his feet, bared his teeth, raised his little fist at his father's back, and lay back again, unable to beat.
In the end, the father and son were reluctant, so they turned over, cleaned up, and drove Lin Zhaoxia to the train station.
On the way back, Chang Zhi checked and checked the seat belt on his body in the back seat, and said with some uncertainty: "Dad, don't be reckless, if you can't drive, let's park the car at the train station, and then drive back when my mother comes back?" ”
Zhao Guangyuan glanced at his nervous son from the rearview mirror, "Sit at ease, Dad has already got his driver's license." ”
"But if you're a trainee driver, you'll have to drive an elevated ...... later," he nervously picked up the seat.
Although Dad looks like a seasoned driver, is it really okay to be so reckless? Mother didn't stop it, it's really a pair of unreliable fathers and mothers, alas, worry.
Zhao Guangyuan was too lazy to argue with his son, and as soon as he stepped on the accelerator, the car rushed forward.
At half past eleven, Lin Zhaoxia returned to his home in Hangzhou.
Dad Lin was very happy to see her, and pulled her to ask long and short questions. Mother Lin took the big bag and small bag she brought back, and complained about why she didn't wait for them to finish eating, thinking that she came back late.
Lin Zhaoxia didn't pay much attention to her attitude, and looked around the room, "Hasn't Yanran returned yet?" ”
Dad Lin pulled her to sit next to her, "No, it's on the way." "Smile and talk to her.
"I'm fine, Dad, don't worry. Are you still taking Chinese medicine, is there any better......
After chatting with Dad Lin for a few words, Lin Zhaoxia was about to go into the kitchen to help.
Seeing that her mother had already prepared all the side dishes, she just waited for Yanran to come back and started stir-frying, and there was nothing else to do for a while. walked around the house and returned to the room where she lived.
Originally, the big house of the Lin family had been sold, and now the remaining small house has only two rooms, and she and Lin Yanran were arranged to sleep in one room, and there were not even two beds in the house, so a twin bed was placed.
Lin Yanran slept on the lower bunk, and Lin's mother had already laid out the sheets and pillowcases, and she was afraid that Lin Yanran would be cold and laid out an electric blanket, and the upper layer was still piled with all kinds of sundries, Lin Zhaoxia looked at it in a daze.
Mother Lin walked in, "There is no storage room at home, and you usually don't come back, so you just put things on there." You'll clean up after a while. ”
Lin Zhaoxia smiled: "Okay, Mom." ”
"The sheets and pillowcases are all in the cupboard, you take it yourself."
"Okay." Lin Zhaoxia responded with a smile and climbed to the top bunk to clean up......
Halfway through the packing, Lin Yanran came back. Mother Lin happily helped take her luggage to the house.
Lin Yanran stood at the door, fanned her hand to her nose, and stepped back, "Why is there so much ash." Glancing at Lin Zhaoxia on the top bunk, "Coming back?" ”
Lin Zhaoxia smiled and nodded, "I'm back." You go to the living room first, I'm going to clean up. ”
Lin Yanran turned around and went out, Mother Lin put down Lin Yanran's suitcase and said to Lin Zhaoxia, "Lighter, raise so much ash, get to Yanran's bed, how can she sleep." ”
took a feather duster, dusted it on Lin Yanran's bed, took another quilt cover from the cabinet, covered the lower bunk tightly, and turned around and went out.
Lin Zhaoxia glanced down at the bunk, the sheet was hers. I was stunned for a while, and then I moved the things off the top bunk as if nothing happened, dusted and wiped it again, and then put on the bed cover, quilt cover, and pillowcase.
After lunch and a short break, Lin Zhaoxia didn't go out, reading books and brushing his mobile phone in the house. When Father Lin woke up, he accompanied Father Lin to walk around the community, and when he came back, he and Mother Lin prepared the Chinese New Year's Eve dinner in the evening.
When the meal was ready, Lin Yanran also came back from outside, several people ate the Chinese New Year's Eve dinner together, and after eating, seeing Lin Yanran running out again, Lin Mama pulled him, "Where are you going again." ”
"Get together with friends." After saying that, I went out with my bag on my back.
Mother Lin said a few words dissatisfied, and Father Lin echoed beside her, "I have to leave tomorrow, and I won't say how much I stay at home." I just thought about running out. ”
Mother Lin was not happy when she heard this, "Her current work, the family can't help, and she can't rely on her to make connections outside, she can fall from the sky just by staying at home and working?" ”
Dad Lin opened his mouth, didn't you just say that she was not at home, and she was burning her ass at home? But after glancing at Mother Lin, he didn't bother to argue with her and shut up.
Lin Zhaoxia sat aside without squeaking, quietly peeling apples for Lin's father.
Seeing that she didn't squeak, Mother Lin asked her, "Why can't you stay still?" The fire at home is also burning to the butt? Leaving in the second year of junior high school? ”
Lin Zhaoxia didn't raise his head, "Hmm." You also heard Yanran say that their crew has to film during the Chinese New Year, and we are similar to them, the crew will ask us to change the script at any time, and we will be on call 24 hours a day. ”
After speaking, he pursed his lips. I'm a little sorry in my heart.
But thinking that she would transfer money on time every month, what medicine would Dad Lin take, as long as Mother Lin spoke, she would transfer money to the house, and she felt some guilt in her heart.
In this home, she is less and less able to feel the temperature. She became more and more polite with them. Lin Yanran could still run out when she got home, but she couldn't.
Seeing that Mother Lin was going to say something more, Father Lin said: "Just be busy with work, you don't have to worry about it at home." Dad can now take care of himself. ”
Lin Zhaoxia hummed softly and handed the apple to Dad Lin's hand. Dad Lin took it with a smile.
Lin Zhaoxia took another one and cut it for Lin's mother, Lin's mother glanced at her, and remembered Lin Yanran's face that she saw at first glance today, her brows furrowed slightly, Yanran had changed so much that she almost didn't recognize it.
Stared at Lin Zhaoxia, "How much money did you give Yanran?" ”
Lin Zhaoxia was beaten, Lin's father also looked at her, Lin Zhaoxia smiled, "I don't have any money, so I gave her 50,000." ”
"You got her fifty thousand!" Dad Lin frowned, the family took 70,000, Xia Xia took 50,000 for her, and she spent more than 100,000 yuan with her eyes and nose?
Mother Lin was also calculating the accounts in her heart, and she was shocked when she calculated it, she spent so much money?
Lin Zhaoxia didn't answer when she heard them muttering there, as far as she could see on Lin Yanran's face, she moved in several places, and she couldn't beat hundreds of thousands.
As for where Lin Yanran borrowed the money, she didn't care about that. She didn't want her to pay back the 50,000 yuan, but don't come to her to borrow it again in the future.
Her money didn't blow in the wind, either.
This year, she didn't earn much from the job of a screenwriter, only about 100,000 yuan, and on average, it would be enough for her to live in Haishi. Zhao Guangyuan earns his, the antique shop earns a lot this year, plus he resells pearls and other things back and forth, he makes a lot of money, but he has more than 10,000 soldiers and horses, and he consumes at least seventy or eighty thousand taels of silver a month, and there is no more money to spare.
The account on the Internet was a surprise this year.
I made two sets of wedding dresses, lent out a headdress, and earned some money. Later, he sold purse clothes and other items, and many people bought the jewelry made by Lin Dad, and he also made a lot of money.
Filial piety to Lin's father and mother, Lin Zhaoxia is willing to pay, after all, she raised her. Lin Yanran can borrow money if she wants to, if she borrows it and pays it back, but if Lin's mother thinks that she should take the money, she is not willing to borrow.
At night, Mother Lin lay down and tossed and turned and didn't fall asleep, and pushed Father Lin, who was lying on the side, "Is Yanran spending too much money this year?" She secretly made up a lot, and I didn't see her take it back.
After the New Year just now, Lin Zhaoxia gave Lin's father and Lin's mother 10,000 yuan as filial piety money. But Yanran only gave a thousand. Mother Lin felt a little uncomfortable.
Dad Lin was originally a patient, and he was exhausted from staying up until the early hours of the morning, so he ignored her with his eyes closed.
Mother Lin said to herself again, "Yesterday, Xia Xia came back with a bunch of New Year's goods, and then returned empty-handed." "I only gave a thousand red envelopes.
Thinking that Lin Yanran not only gave 100,000 yuan to her family this year, but also gave Yanran 50,000 yuan, "You say, does Xia Xia's job as a screenwriter earn a lot?" Or let Ran Ran learn from her. Let her take it with her. ”
It's so easy to be a big star, they don't have anything in their family, just an ordinary person, it's easy to get out of the way, and they should find a job seriously.
When Dad Lin heard that she was thinking too much again, he yelled dissatisfiedly, "Xia Xia borrowed money from others, but she didn't pay it back, and you told her about it again, and she didn't pay off her old debts and added new debts." Ran Ran can't sit still, where can she do Xia Xia's job. ”
Mother Lin was dissatisfied with Father Lin's belittling of her biological daughter, "Why can't you do that job?" If you can write, you can write scripts. Wouldn't it be nice to let Xia Xia take it for a while! ”
And she didn't believe that Lin Zhaoxia had no money, and people who had no money should have a sad look on their faces, and they were all struggling with food, clothing, and use, but Lin Zhaoxia didn't look at it.
Mother Lin felt that Lin Zhaoxia didn't tell them the truth.
