As she spoke, Lin Wumei kowtowed twice, picked up the bewildered Su Shi and walked out, and refused the bowl of rice handed by Wang Cuilan, and the two walked slowly against the wind and snow.

When the door closed, Lin Wumei relieved herself and whispered: "Milk, this family can only give us this bowl of rice at most, and then continue to ask for it, it is our fault to spread it, first sell it for two days of bitter meat, and then go to the gate of his house to kneel and ask for it, and when they see it, they will not give it." ”

Su Shi thought about it, this method is good, they have been hungry for a few days, their faces are yellow and thin, and they kneel at the gate at noon to borrow food, and no matter what they want, Lao Lin's family will give it.

She laughed and patted Lin Wumei's hand: "Although you are a girl, you are very flexible, eat half a potato more tonight." ”

"Thank you, milk!"

When Lin Wumei heard this, she smiled happily, and said a few words in a row that made Su Shi smile, went back to eat half a potato, and told Lin Min and his family about the plan.

"Yes, that's it."

After listening to it, he pondered it carefully, and found that this plan was good, Lin Min nodded, and didn't say anything to Lin Wumei to eat one more potato, he asked Xiaoqiao to hide the New Year's goods and rations he bought, and only left a little at home to put on the bright side.

and told Lin Mingze to hide in Lao Lin's family in two days, if there is a debt collector to find him, he will not admit it, and let Lao Lin's family get ahead, who will let them have more sons.

There are so many people, how can I say that I can stop the debt collectors.

"Done."

Lin Mingze responded absent-mindedly, but he was thinking about whether to continue to go out and play cards in the afternoon, he won a glass of wine last time, how can he win a little more this time.

"Just gone?" Fang Hongying asked in disbelief: "I thought it would be at least as long as before." ”

"It's not good to be gone, what do you want."

Seeing that the person was gone, he immediately breathed a sigh of relief, Lin Yuandong heard his daughter-in-law say this, and hurriedly 'puffed' on the ground, he patted Hongying on the shoulder: "Boil some water, wash our feet, let's go back to sleep." ”

He greeted his two sons, returned to the backyard wing first, and sat on the kang, thinking that something was wrong.

But I don't understand what's wrong.

Knowing that he is not very smart, his mind is not flexible, and his mind is not very transparent, Lin Yuandong doesn't think about it much, anyway, what he can't figure out, the third Lin Yuannan will definitely be able to figure it out.

"Sister, let's go back." Sanfu frowned, he stared at the closed door, and after thinking for a long time, he didn't understand the reason why these two people left easily, so he was ready to take Lin Xiangrong back to rest.

"I'll talk to my grandmother, third brother, you go back first."

Seeing that the people in the house were almost gone, Lin Xiangrong threw himself into the arms of Wang Cuilan, who was reprimanding Lin Yuandong, and asked with beautiful big eyes: "Milk, why did the third mother and the sisterless sister leave?" ”

Walking too easily, it makes people mutter.

"I don't know about this milk."

Just go.

It's just that the bowl of rice was not taken away, Wang Cuilan panicked in her heart, for fear of getting some moths on her head, she glared at Lin Dawei: "You still want to give them our family's New Year's goods as required!" ”

Lin Dawei, who only knew that he was smoking a leaf cigarette with his head down, stretched out his hand and waved the smoke that was spit out by himself, and he twisted his brows: "Otherwise, just watch the third brother and sister kneel on the ground and cry?" What is this like when it comes out! ”

"You know it's not good to get it out! If you have to come down, if you should come down, what should you do with the third child! Wang Cuilan was angry, put her granddaughter on the kang and grabbed the cigarette in Lin Dawei's hand.

He dodged sideways, and touched Lin Xiangrong's head again next time: "Okay, it's not okay, tomorrow I'll go over and send a bowl of rice, two more potatoes and a little vegetables, enough for their family to eat for a while." ”

"Lord, the heart of defense is indispensable, we can be kind, but we can't always be kind, there is a sentence in the book that people are good and are bullied, if we have no bottom line to retreat, it will only make people bully us more and more."

Lin Xiangrong hugged Lin Dawei's hand and rubbed it, she didn't understand the thoughts of the older generation, but after thinking about it, people of this generation attach great importance to family and the relationship between neighbors, and it is normal to be carried away.

She mentioned something, but was interrupted by Wang Cuilan.

"Hmph, don't talk to him so much, he's just a mud leg who can't read big words, go, grandma will send you back to sleep."

picked up his granddaughter, wrapped her in a coat and went to the west wing, when he entered the house, Lin Yuannan was discussing with Zhou Zhaodi about borrowing grain today, and the three rich, who were not very old but could be regarded as a laborer, were making up their minds loudly.

Seeing that she was holding Lin Xiangrong in, they were all silent, and Wang Cuilan snorted when she saw this: "What are you discussing?" ”

Then put down the little granddaughter in her arms, and she pinched the little granddaughter's face: "I don't know how to pick up my good granddaughter." ”

Lin Xiangrong smiled brightly at her, turned his head and threw himself into Sanfu's arms and rubbed it, took an orange handed by him, and took a bite of his sour face: "Third brother, it's so sour." ”

Mifu, who deliberately handed her a sour orange, laughed.

"I didn't discuss anything, Mom, how did you discuss it with Dad?"

Lin Yuannan pretended to be stunned and smiled, turned his head and asked the old couple what they thought.

As a result, I rolled my eyes.

"What can you think, it's all your father's younger siblings, and you have to send some rations tomorrow, okay, you guys go to bed early."

Wang Cuilan was annoyed, so she dealt with it casually and left.

The room was quiet again, only the sound of Lin Xiangrong and Sanfu playing sounded, and the two jumped on the kang, and after a while, they were sent to sleep by Zhou Zhaodi.

When she woke up, Lin Dawei had already sent over with a basket of rations, Lin Xiangrong listened to what Sanfu said, so she didn't care too much, she ate something, sat on the stool and made a basket in a good way, and chatted with Lin Lili who was reading the newspaper from time to time.

Seeing the little niece puffing out her face and weaving a basket, the little meat hand was very dexterous to weave a rough shape with bamboo strips, and quickly perfected it along the way, Lin Lili put down the newspaper and walked over to help her knit it together.

"That's amazing." Lin Lili said with a smile: "I can support my family at such a young age, and our family will definitely not be wrong in the future." ”

She thought for a moment: "You're going to school in two years, right?" ”

"Well, after the Chinese New Year, my mother said that she would take me to apply for a permit, and then I could go to school." Lin Xiangrong waved his fist excitedly: "Listen to the third brother, the school is good, there is everything in it." ”

Seeing that she was not rejecting going to school at all, Lin Lili breathed a sigh of relief, picked up her little niece who had finished weaving the basket, grabbed the newspaper and pointed to the words on it to teach it word by word.

Lin Lili's eyes lit up: "It seems that our family has a little Wenqu star!" ”
