Chapter 61 Discovering Lin Yan's Secret

Ours?

Erni's eyes lit up, and she immediately let go of her hand.

"Father, why didn't you say so earlier!"

She kicked her calf and ran around the cow, babbling non-stop: "Oh, I said, why is this cow so beautiful, so it belongs to our family... It must cost a lot of money... "

Lin Yuxi: ...

He strode over, picked up Erni and put her on the bullock cart: "Calm down for me!"

Without waiting for Erni to speak, she led the cow and walked into the yard.

After entering the yard, Lin Yuxi thought about tying the rope so that the cattle would not run around.

Erni took the opportunity to climb down from the bullock cart, and ran into the hall in a hurry.

Zhao Chunhua stared at the fire in the kitchen, only Mother Lin and a few children were in the main room.

"Grandpa brought the ox cart back and said it belonged to our family!"

Mother Lin was taken aback, and hurried out, and saw the cows in the yard at a glance. She walked over and grabbed Lin Yuxi.

"Third, did you buy this cow?"

Lin Yuxi shook his head: "I bought this with my younger siblings. Don't we have to deliver this tofu every day? It's not worthwhile to always rent Lin San's. We might as well buy a cow ourselves."

Cows are so expensive. Except for Lin San, only Lizhenghe's family has them in Dashan Village. Now Lao Lin's family also owns an ox cart.

Mother Lin frowned, knowing the reason, she didn't say anything, but urged Lin Yuxi to say:

"Is the rope tied up? After you've tied it up, wash your hands and go eat. The whole family is waiting for you!"

Lin Yuxi patted the ashes on his hands, and walked towards the water tank: "It's tied up, I'm going to wash my hands, and I'll come in right away!"

Mother Lin let out a "hmm" and went into the kitchen. After a while, she and Zhao Chunhua and Yang Hongfen went to the main room with the dishes.

After dinner, Yang Hongfen led the children back to the house as usual, preparing to bathe them.

Lin Yuxi went to the kitchen ahead of time and poured hot water into the wooden basins and barrels. After Zhao Chunhua and Xiaohua cleaned up the dishes, the hot water was ready.

Zhao Chunhua put down the bowls and chopsticks, and waved towards Xiaohua: "Xiaohua, you go back to the house to help your mother bathe your younger brothers and sisters, and I will wash the bowls and chopsticks."

Xiao Hua said "Mmm", Lin Yuxi picked up two buckets of hot water and followed her, walking towards the big room.

When Li Yushu came out of the room, she saw Lin Yuxi who had entered the kitchen with an empty bucket, and she hurried over.

"Third brother, third sister-in-law."

"Why is Yushu here?" Zhao Chunhua raised her head, wondering.

"I'm here to find third brother." Li Yushu explained, turning her gaze to Lin Yuxi: "Third brother, how is the thing I asked you to find a carpenter to make today?"

"I can get it tomorrow afternoon. The carpenter has never made this thing before, so I have to wait until it is finished to calculate the price, but I have to pay a tael of silver as a deposit. If you pay more, you will be refunded less!"

Lin Yuxi smiled and said, "I was thinking that I would bring it back to you when they are done!"

Zhao Chunhua was confused when she heard what they said. After washing the last bowl, she raised her head and asked, "What are you talking about?"

Lin Yuxi only looked at the drawing, but didn't know what it was. Hearing this, he also looked at Li Yushu as if he was waiting to be puzzled.

Li Yushu didn't answer, but smiled and said: "You will know when you get it back."

The two people who said this were very curious, but Li Yushu left with a smile after speaking, so she had to hold back and wait for the things to be ready tomorrow.

As soon as Li Yushu entered the room with her front feet, she took off her shoes and lay down on the kang, when Yang Hongfen carried Lin Yan into the room with her back feet.

Lin Yan's eyes were half-closed, feeling drowsy, Yang Hongfen carefully placed him on the kang.

Li Yushu whispered from the side: "Thank you, sister-in-law."

Yang Hongfen waved her hand, and also whispered back: "It's nothing, I'm leaving, you should rest earlier!"

Li Yushu nodded, watched Yang Hongfen leave, then turned to look at Lin Yan who was already asleep, with tenderness in her eyes unconsciously.

She raised her hand to cover Lin Yan with the thin quilt, then leaned over and kissed him on the forehead.

The straw curtains on the window blocked the moonlight that wanted to slip into the house, and it was quiet everywhere. Li Yushu also lay down and closed her eyes.

I don't know how much time has passed, and in a daze, Li Yushu heard that familiar voice again.

Her heart skipped a beat, and her drowsiness disappeared instantly. She subconsciously held her breath and listened carefully. When she heard the door open, she opened her eyes.

Supporting Kang to sit up with his hands, his eyes fell to the side. The place where Lin Yan was sleeping was empty at this moment.

Li Yushu pursed her lips, carefully got off the kang, put on her shoes, and then gently closed the straw curtains. The bright moonlight scrambled in, illuminating the room brightly.

Holding her back with one hand and the wall with the other, she walked towards the door with slow steps.

Under the moonlight outside, it was like daytime. Standing at the door, Li Yushu saw Lin Yan standing on a small wooden pier and climbing in through the kitchen window with difficulty.

And Sanya was standing under the window, with a bowl beside her. When Lin Yan handed out a plate, she climbed up the small wooden pier, took it, and quickly poured the contents into the bowl.

Then he ran to the water tank in the yard, scooped up water with a gourd ladle to wash the dishes, and then ran back to pass the dishes through the window.

Immediately afterwards, Lin Yan climbed out of the window, while Sanya squatted aside, holding the bowl and eating with big mouthfuls.

The two are doing their own things, which means they have nothing to do with each other.

When Lin Yan climbed down, Sanya also put down the bowl, apparently finished eating.

Then the two worked together to move the small wooden pier to the corner of the yard.

"Why didn't you come yesterday!" Sanya ran back to pick up the bowl with indifferent eyes.

She was really hungry last night, the kind that felt like she was going to starve to death.

Lin Yan quickly explained: "Yesterday when my mother and the others came back late, I slept in the nurse's place. I didn't mean it!"

"Heh" Sanya lowered her eyes, holding back the chill in her eyes, she didn't talk, but went to the water tank to wash the dishes.

She had to wash the bowls and put them back, otherwise Mother would have to take her anger out on her when she found out that the bowls were missing.

Seeing this, Lin Yan kicked his calves to follow, with an anxious expression on his face: "Sister Sanya, don't be angry, I promise, I will come in the future!"

To Sanya who had been deceived once, these words were not very credible. She held the bowl expressionlessly and pushed Lin Yan away.

"I'm sleepy, go back to sleep!"

Hearing this, Lin Yan didn't care about the stain on his clothes, but nodded and said, "Go, I'll bring some food to the old place tomorrow morning!"

Sanya didn't speak, she gently pushed open the door of the second room, and walked in without looking back.

Seeing this, Lin Yan couldn't help but feel a little disappointed.

He pursed his lips and went back to the house dejectedly.

As he walked, a pair of familiar shoes came into view. Lin Yan suddenly raised his head and bumped into Li Yushu's eyes.

He couldn't help taking a step back, feeling a little guilty: "Mom, why are you awake?"

Li Yushu pursed her lips, her eyes fell on Lin Yan's sleeve, where there was a bright stain.

Lin Yan followed her gaze, then subconsciously put his hands behind his back.

Li Yushu looked at his flustered appearance and raised her eyebrows slightly. She really didn't know how to teach the child, but she felt that no matter what the child did, he had to give him a chance to defend himself.

So Li Yushu said flatly: "It's cold outside at night, so go inside first."

After speaking, she turned around and walked inside.

Little did they know that the calmer she appeared, the more nervous Lin Yan felt.

He knew it was wrong to lie, but on Sanya's side... He bit his lip and followed behind Li Yushu nervously.
