Chapter 68
"Why are you dragging me?" Gao Shicai shook off Du Mingran's hand: "Two big men are flirting, what should I do if my sister-in-law misunderstands me?"

Du Mingran didn't think much about it at first, it was like swallowing a fly when he said that, seeing that he still wanted to go out, he slammed the door of the dormitory: "The husband and wife are talking, you don't just walk there to join in the fun. "

"Aren't I worried about Ah Shi?" Gao Shicai leaned on the crack of the door to look out, but unfortunately the stone table was blocked by a small piece of bamboo forest in front of the house, so he couldn't see anything.

Du Mingran was speechless, ignored him, and took the book to read.

Gao Shicai stood up resentfully, went to his bed and lay down on his back. Seeing that the two people on the left and right were reading, he suddenly felt dizzy.

No, he can't fall alone.

"Nerd, you still read and don't want your eyes anymore?"

Feng Qing rubbed his eyes and ignored him.

Feng Qing has the nickname of Bookworm, not because he loves to read, but when he reads, he always likes to put his face on the book, his eyes are narrowed into a slit, and he looks stupid like that.

But those who are familiar with him know that Feng Qing did this because his eyes were broken.

Not to mention the words on the book, it is a big living person, and you can't see it clearly even if you are far away from him.

People nowadays call it blindness, which is myopia in later generations.

There are not a few scholars who have this symptom, but doctors can't cure it, and everyone can't do anything.

Boring, Gao Shicai sucked his teeth, and a carp sat up straight.

Forget it, let him read too.

……

"When I came here just now, I stopped by and bought you some pastries. You can eat when you are hungry after reading." Baobao Lin pointed to the oiled paper bag on the stone table.

Gu Shi: "En."

Lin Baobao has always known that Gu Shi is a person who doesn't talk much, but for some reason today, he felt a little blocked for no reason: "Then you study hard, I'm going back."

She stood up and put her back on her back to leave, when someone grabbed her wrist suddenly.

At the same time, some pictures flooded into her mind, and Lin Baobao's face turned pale instantly.

Gu Shi let go of his hand, seeing the girl opposite had a bad expression: "What's the matter, is there something uncomfortable?"

He said and raised his hand to touch her forehead.

Lin Baobao subconsciously turned his head to avoid it.

Gu Shi's hands froze in the air, his eyes darkened: "I didn't mean that just now..."

His endless words brought Lin Baobao back to his senses: "What?"

Gu Shi pursed his lips, and said awkwardly, "I don't want you to come."

When he said this, he didn't dare to look at her, but stared at the pastry on the stone table.

Baby Lin: ...

At first she was indeed a little emotional because of Gu Shi's attitude, but later she was completely frightened by the death of the big girl.

Yes, just now, she saw the big girl throwing herself into the river, but she didn't see the cause, only a corpse picked up from the pond.

Gu Shi didn't know what was going on, thought she was still angry, and asked tentatively: "Why don't I show you around the academy."

Just then, the sound of a gong came from the front yard.

"Next time we go shopping, you go to class first." Lin Baobao turned to leave, noticed Gu Shi's expression, paused and said: "Don't copy books at night, it's bad for your eyes. It's best not to copy in the future, It's not that I can't afford you."

Looking at the back of Lin Baobao leaving quickly, Gu Shi narrowed his eyes slightly. Mr. Xu had never taught them so early.

Mr. Xu: Hmph, why do I want to disturb your good business by letting you annoy me every day?

Lin Baobao was worried about the big girl's accident, so he hurriedly hired a bullock cart to go back after shopping.

"Sister-in-law, you're back." Er Niu squatted at the gate of the courtyard and looked eagerly at the direction of the village entrance. As soon as the ox cart stopped, she ran over and lay on the back basket looking for a while: "Where's my candied haws?"

Lin Baobao paid the fare: "I didn't see a hawker selling candied haws today. I bought pastries."

Fortunately, when she bought it for Gu Shi, she specially bought an extra pack.

Er Niu was a little disappointed not to see the candied haws, but she became happy when she heard that there were fragrant and sweet pastries.

Listening to Lin Baobao asking about the big girl, he hurriedly said: "My aunt is here again. I don't know what she said to my sister. My sister took the work and went to the house to do it. She said she was going to accompany my mother. I stayed in the house, but my mother said I would disturb her rest and drove me out. By the way, my mother even gave my sister a piece of cloth to make her own clothes."

Speaking of this second girl is still a little angry.

The cloth was bought by my sister last time. Everyone in the family has two sets of new clothes, and she and her sister only have one set, and the rest of the cloth was put away by her mother.

Ask her and say she doesn't have time to do it now.

Lin Baobao paused slightly. The Zhao family didn't talk to the big girl in the past few days. How could she find her as soon as she went out?
Thinking of the death of the eldest girl, Lin Baobao's eyes were filled with anger. She is a sister-in-law, and Feng's mother-in-law is on top of her. She didn't want to take care of her sister-in-law's small family, but this time she can't.

"Sister-in-law, what's the matter?" Er Niu keenly sensed that Lin Baobao was in a bad mood.

"It's okay." Lin Baobao took out a pastry from the basket and handed it to her: "Go and eat with Ermao and the others."

"Thank you, sister, you are so kind." Er Niu cheerfully ran away holding the oiled paper bag.

Baby Lin entered the yard.

"Her sister-in-law is back." Zhao Liushi just came out of the main room, saw the meat in the basket, and said enviously: "It must cost a lot of money to buy such meat?"

Lin Baobao glanced at her lightly: "Are you going back?"

The smile on Zhao Liushi's face froze.

"She's staying at our house for dinner today." Feng Shi came out of the house upon hearing the noise.

"Mom?" Lin Baobao was puzzled.

Feng pulled her aside: "She brought a chicken this time."

Baby Lin: ...

Lin Baobao recalled the scene he saw earlier. The body of the big girl was found in the morning, although he didn't know what happened to make a 14-year-old girl choose to commit suicide.

But she had a premonition that she must have something to do with the Zhao family and even Zhao's own mother.

It is still the truth of the saying "Only a thousand days can be a thief, but there is no thousand days to prevent a thief".

It is impossible for her to look at the big girl all the time, and she is impatient to guard against this and that every day. The best way is to catch her body, scare people once and then dare not hit the big girl.

Thinking of this, after lunch, Zhao Liushi still stayed at the Lin's house, and Baobao Lin didn't say anything.

What surprised Lin Baobao was that the big girl who had never been close to her actually found her in private.

"My aunt gave it to me." The eldest girl lowered her head and handed a mahogany hairpin to Baobao Lin: "I... I'm a little scared."

The eldest girl is not stupid. She knows that Mrs. Zhao loves her grandma's cousins, and she also knows that the money she earns from picking honeysuckle is given to Mrs. Zhao, and she subsidizes her mother's family.

But she is different from Erniu. When she was a child, Mrs. Zhao did not treat her badly. Until Erniu was born, maybe it was because she felt unable to straighten up after having two daughters in a row.

Mrs. Zhao stopped getting close to them at first, and instead focused on the people on her grandmother's side.

But she still remembers that when the whole family surrounded her and gave her all the good things, her mother also secretly hid a piece of candy for her to eat.
