Chapter 22 Homecoming at the end of the month
"Not much, this is the share of those ordered paintings. You need to come over tomorrow to help Xia Fangming and Ma Sanbao complete the paintings. There is no wages, but I can provide you with a pot of tea for free." The shopkeeper said with a smile .

On the first day of work in the teahouse, the Lin family earned a fortune.A good start, a family of three fell asleep, all laughing.

A new book was quietly put on the shelves in the Chen Family Bookstore in Luochuan County.The new book contains ten poems, and each capital has notes and sources about the poem.Only a few strokes of "Thoughts in a Quiet Night" were written.The new book was sold out in less than a month after it hit the shelves.

This month, the income of the three members of the Lin family is quite high, and the business of the teahouse is also booming.Lin Sanfu bought three bolts of coarse cloth, two boxes of snacks, two jugs of liquor, and cut three or four catties of meat.The family of three left the city early in the morning and walked back to Linjiacun.

"Lin Sanfu got rich!"

"I thought he couldn't do it!"

"I heard that the teahouse pays him five taels a month. If he works for a year, he will buy a house in Luochuan County!"

The villagers who were busy with farm work saw Lin Sanfu's family of three walking on the ridge from a distance.All of them showed envious and jealous eyes.Old Lin's family, Mr. Lin and Luo Shi, who had received a report from the villagers, stayed at home and did not go out for a stroll.

Shiro and Tiezi, like other children in the village, ran to the side of the road and waited.When Lin Sanfu's family of three approached, the two brothers ran over at a flying speed.

"Uncle, tell me the story of Journey to the West, okay?" Shiro shook Lin Sanfu's arm, acting coquettishly and foolishly.

Tie Zi also looked forward to it, "Uncle, I want to hear it too."

The children in the village also surrounded Lin Sanfu's family of three, reluctant to leave for a long time, and clamoring for a story.

Lin Qiaoqiao said with a smile: "I'll tell you later, after I go home and see my grandma first. You wait obediently by the river, and I'll come as soon as I go."

There were sour bubbles in Shiro's eyes, "Sister Qiaoqiao, what can you say? Storytelling is a man's business!"

"Sister Qiaoqiao is also a storyteller. My master has already told me that, and the restaurant also invited sister Qiaoqiao. It's just that the wages are calculated together with my aunt." Tiezi immediately defended Lin Qiaoqiao.

"Sycophant!" said Shiro.

The children in the village just need someone who is willing to tell them a story, and it doesn't matter who tells them.After getting an affirmative reply, they all dispersed.

"Grandpa, grandma! We're home, grandma, and my mother even bought cloth for you and grandpa to make new clothes." Before entering the yard, Lin Qiaoqiao shouted loudly.

With a smile on his face and still cursing on his lips, Luo Shi came out of the main room together with Old Man Lin. "What are you talking about, I'm not deaf! The chickens in the house will be so scared that they won't be able to lay eggs!"

Lin Qiaoqiao smiled like a flower.With the improvement of food this month, the three members of Lin Sanfu's family finally look like they are not skinny.There is some flesh on her face, her complexion has improved, but Lin Qiaoqiao's hair has not changed much, it is still withered and yellow with few split ends.

"Why spend this unjust money?" Old Man Lin said.

However, his hand reached out to the shochu in Lin Sanfu's hand.

"Mother! Here it is. It's more, it's the filial money that my son gave to your elders." Lin Sanfu handed over a tael of silver ingots to Luo Shi.

Luo Shi was so moved that he kept holding Lin Sanfu's hand.Almost burst into tears in public.

"Mother won't spend the money, mother will keep it. Maybe in the future, my son will want to study again." Luo Shi said.

Zhang Ying took out a piece of coarse cloth from the back basket, and walked towards Erfang.

"Stop, what are you going to do?" Luo Shi's eyes were sharp, and he couldn't care less about playing the scene of mother's kindness and son's filial piety with Lin Sanfu.

He rushed over, and then, the hungry wolf pounced on the food.He snatched the cloth from Zhang Ying and held it in his arms.

"Mother! Those two pieces of cloth are filial piety for you and father, and this piece of cloth is used to make clothes for the family. The clothing store sells it too expensive, and it happens that the second sister-in-law is good at craftsmanship. Let the second sister-in-law help everyone in the family Make a set of summer clothes, and make a pair of new shoes for you and dad. If there is any leftover cloth, it will belong to the second sister-in-law. It is worth the wages. It is also time-consuming to make clothes, and it will delay the second sister-in-law's embroidery." Lin Sanfu said with a smile.

Luo Shi was a little distressed about spending money, and finally, after hesitating for a while, he handed the cloth in his arms to Zhang Ying.

"Those two bolts of cloth are used to make winter clothes for parents, and their quilts should be changed too. Later, I will let my second sister-in-law do it too." Lin Sanfu said again.

Roche looked pained. "Son! You have spent a lot of money! You only earned a few dollars! You'd better save some for yourself, don't spend it. You see that Qiaoqiao is not small, and she needs to make plans for her. Now we Now that the family has money, you should think about it for yourself. Take Yingzi to see the doctor and recuperate, maybe I can hold my grandson. My mother is still young and her body is strong, so she can still take care of her grandson."

Lin Sanfu nodded and agreed, "Okay, my son will take care of it. After my son saves some money, he bought a house in Luochuan County. Then he went back to the village and picked up his parents to live with him."

Old man Lin was listening, smiling cheerfully.

Luo Shi also had a happy face, "I knew my third son was filial."

After Lin Qiaoqiao took the things out of the basket and sorted them, "Father! I'm going out to play."

"You know how to run like crazy." Luo Shi turned his head and cursed.

Lin Qiaoqiao said with a smile: "Don't worry, baby, I will never stain or break my clothes!"

Luo Shi blushed, "Go play with you!"

Lin Qiaoqiao smiled and led Tie Zi to play.Shiro ran to the field to find Dalang.

The river is at the west end of the village, and Lin Qiaoqiao is going to meet there.Seeing Lin Qiaoqiao approaching, a group of little radish heads surrounded them happily.

"Sister Qiaoqiao!"

"Sit here, this rock is the biggest!"

"Sister Qiaoqiao, this wild fruit is for you to eat."

A group of radish heads were very enthusiastic, and some women or unmarried girls were washing clothes or washing hair on the stone bed by the river.

"Everyone is seated, I'm going to tell a story." Lin Qiaoqiao said with a smile.

Lin Qiaoqiao stuffed the wild fruit into his pocket.Farmers are not as particular as the wealthy people in Luochuan County. They all have pockets sewn into their clothes to facilitate storage of small items.

"Do you know that Nuwa repairs the sky?" Lin Qiaoqiao asked with a smile.

"Know!"

"I know too!"

"I heard from my grandfather."

"Hush! Be quiet, when I'm telling a story, when you want to speak, do you need to raise your hands first to understand?" Lin Qiaoqiao raised her hand and made a demonstration for everyone to see.

A group of little radish heads covered their mouths, and each of them nodded obediently.

Lin Qiaoqiao said: "It is said that Nu Wa left behind a sacred stone after mending the sky, and the sacred stone has been beaten by wind and rain..."
