Chapter 43

Ever since she was caught eavesdropping in person by Fang Lin and sisters that day, Mrs. Li was always a little embarrassed when she saw them. If Fang Lin was working in Mrs. Shen's room on weekdays, she seldom came to warm up. It's about Shen Ping'an or Shen Ruyi, but the more you hide, the more chances you will bump into each other, especially when the whole family eats together, either the chopsticks catch the chopsticks, or the arm touches the elbow.

Fang Lin made shoes for Duan Nanshan and entrusted Shen Pingan to send them to him. When he came back, he brought half a pheasant with him. There were too many people in the family to share the food. Fang Lin cut some cabbage and half a catty. Tofu, stewed chicken soup with vermicelli, the family spent the new year warmly.

The next day is the 24th of the twelfth lunar month, the day of house sweeping.

Fang Min's business in Qingquan Village is pretty good, and he doesn't stay at home all day. Sun's attitude has improved a lot in recent days. The whole family is preparing to clean up. Fang Min is not there, so he just muttered a few words, Fang Linquan pretended not to hear.

Cleaning the house is not an easy task. It takes a lot of effort just to move the things in the house to the yard.

The old couple of the Shen family lived in the main room first. The old Mrs. Shen put a square handkerchief on her head, tied a long stick to the broom, and began to sweep the cobwebs and dust on the beams and walls of the house. After her family lived in the west house and Shen Ershan's family lived in the east house, Fang Lin started to tidy up the utility room where she and Fang Min lived.

Shen Yuanyuan took a broom and followed, "Cousin Lin, let me help you."

Fang Lin smiled, the house she lived in didn't have many things, so she didn't need help. Shen Yuanyuan had been turning around the past few days to ask how much the dowry was sold for, but she had bypassed them all, and she still hasn't given up. , is also really persevering.

In front of the house, Fang Lin didn't open the door. She turned around and said to Shen Yuanyuan who was following behind her, "Are you really curious about how much money I have? It doesn't matter if I have mountains of gold and silver, or I'm so poor that I can't solve the pot and only have a copper coin left. That's all myself. What are you staring at for so little money?"

Seeing Fang Lin expressing her thoughts so bluntly, Shen Yuanyuan blushed, "I... I don't really want to know... Even my mother, you know her cousin, she insists on asking, but I can't help it ah."

"In this case, then I'll tell you, I have 100 taels, do you believe it?" Fang Lin suddenly had a mischievous idea, and teased Shen Yuanyuan.

Shen Yuanyuan naturally didn't believe it. She just thought that Fang Lin, an old girl who couldn't get married, was living in her own home and received more dowry gifts than her. Lin is not worth the price if she sells it. What's more, Nanshan is just a mountain dweller, how much money can he have? Thinking of this, Shen Yuanyuan immediately felt a lot more balanced, "Cousin, don't be joking, I don't want to ask, it's okay. I'm going to help my mother." After saying that, he ran away without a trace.

It didn't take much for Fang Lin to clean the house. After all, she had cleaned up the house before she moved in.

Sweeping the house in the morning should be cleaning in the afternoon. The quilts of Fang Lin and her sisters are newly made and do not need to be removed and washed. She took Fang Min and her dirty clothes out to wash, and Mrs. Li walked past the house several times with a basin in her hand. , and finally leaned forward cheekily, "Sister Lin is busy, thanks to you today, otherwise the cabinet in my room would not be able to be moved out."

"I'm just lending a helping hand. It's my second uncle and cousin Ping'an who are helping." Fang Lin kept rubbing her clothes, raised her head and smiled. After all, there was nothing wrong with her two aunts. To be reasonable, Mrs. Li likes to take advantage of a small advantage, but in fact, it's not all for living.
