Traveling: Village Girl Plays "Staying" Husband

Chapter 73

Xiangcheng, Liuqingxuan is located in the southeastern state capital, which is equivalent to a modern provincial city.

In a two-deep courtyard, Lin Yu packed up his things and washed his hands before saying to Lin Sang, "Brother, why don't you go and buy some daily necessities?"

Lin Sang looked at the neatly tidied house and said, "Well, I inquired clearly with the people in the dental shop yesterday. Although this place is in the suburbs, there is a market not far away. Brother, I will go there in a while. Let's make a list."

Lin Yu found a piece of paper that she asked for from Xiao Er who was living in the store, but she had no pen and ink, so she could only say, "Brother, can you see if there are half-burnt wood branches or charcoal ends in Grandma Hong's kitchen?"

When Lin Sauna went out with the list, the landlady, Grandma Hong, came over with concern and asked, "Miss Lin, have you packed everything?"

Lin Yu hurriedly came out with a smile and agreed, "Is it Grandma Hong? Come on, sit down, the house has just been tidied up, and the water hasn't boiled yet, so I can only ask you to sit down."

Grandma Hong put the kettle in her hand on the table next to Lin Yu and said, "I see you two brothers and sisters have been busy. I'm afraid you don't have someone to boil water for you, so I'll bring it for you."

Lin Yu was thirsty, and she dared not drink cold water if she was able. Seeing that Grandma Hong was thirsty, she said gratefully, "Thank you Grandma Hong, Lin Yu is really thirsty! Grandma Hong, don't call me Lin Yu from now on." Girl, call me Lin Yu, our family met a bandit on the road, and my husband-in-law ran away to protect me."

It's human nature to take the initiative to explain some situations so that others don't always want to find out the news, so when Grandma Hong came to deliver water for the first time, Lin Yu said what she had thought up.

"Ah? Is that going to happen?" Grandma Hong looked at Lin Yu in surprise and asked. There is no one in the world who doesn't gossip at all.

Lin Yu also looked worried but still believed in his husband: "Grandma Hong, Lin Yu doesn't know what will happen. My husband has learned one trick and two moves. I believe he will be fine!"

Grandma Hong has experienced a lot of pain when she was an older person, and Lin Yu's encounter hit her soft spot, so she comforted her and said, "Lin Yu, don't worry, auspicious people have their own appearance, and I also believe that your husband will definitely Nothing will happen. It’s just that you came from Cang Mansion far away to dry salt by the sea, what would you do if he didn’t come?”

Lin Yu pretended to be helpless: "Grandma Hong, my brother and I don't know what to do for the time being. My husband told me on the way that this is the only way to go to the beach. If we get separated, we will wait for him here." Come find it."

Grandma Hong hurriedly said: "That's good, that's good, it's better to wait here for your husband-in-law to find you. You brothers and sisters don't know where you live, and you can't go to the seaside. The control there is very strict, and you can't go in without the introduction of acquaintances." of."

Lin Yu nodded in agreement with Grandma Hong's words and said, "My husband-in-law said this. He said that our salt industry in Liuqing State is very strict. There is indeed no acquaintance who cannot be brought in, so we will wait here for him."

Lin Yu lived in the inner room of the second entrance, and the rent was two taels of silver a month. Grandma Hong briefly introduced the two families living in the front room.

A wooden wall separates me from the right front room. I live in a family named Zhu from the countryside of Xiangzhou. A couple of about 27 and [-] years old, with a son and a daughter and two children, live in the market. In the business of selling fine wine, life is also passable.

The left front room also lived in a family. The man’s surname was Li. The couple were about 35-[-]. They had two sons and a daughter.

Grandma Hong said with a smile: "I am a lonely old woman who is afraid of being alone, so I like crowds and popularity. Both of them have a lot of people. Now that your brothers and sisters live here, it will be even more lively!"

Grandma Hong looks like she is in her sixties, and she is quite kind-hearted. Lin Yu has been through Lin Zhang and Xiao Li, two top elders, and she is not used to being so kind to Grandma Hong!

She smiled embarrassingly and said, "Grandma Hong, don't be afraid of noise in the future! Lin Yu has a three-month-old child in her belly."

Grandma Hong asked in surprise: "Is this true? There hasn't been a baby crying in this yard for many years! If you can give birth here, Grandma Hong will be so happy!"

Lin Yu tentatively asked, "Grandma Hong, aren't you afraid of noise?"

Grandma Hong smiled and said, "Don't worry, Lin Yu. Grandma Hong is also from here. I'm sorry for my life. I didn't keep the three children I gave birth to. The old man left early. As long as you don't think my old lady's life is bad, one What's so scary about a child crying a little bit?"

Now Lin Yu is really relieved!She was also afraid that when she really had a baby, it would affect everyone, and then she would have to find a house to live in.

They haven't made up their minds to settle here, so it is temporarily impossible to buy a house and fields by themselves. If the landlord makes it difficult for them, they have to move, but moving around is really troublesome!Hope these two neighbors can also get along well, distant relatives are not as good as close neighbors!

She ate a bit too much for dinner. Seeing that her sister hadn't had anything good to eat for so many days, Lin Sang specially bought a stewed pullet for her to eat. After eating half of the chicken, she felt full!
Outside the door was a road and a path leading to the vegetable garden. Lin Yu went out and walked along the path while it was still early. Just as she was about to enter the yard, she suddenly heard someone talking: "Sister Zhu, Did you hear that someone has rented and lived in the two rooms on the opposite side of your house."

The sister of the Zhu family said: "I just heard from grandma Hong that they are two siblings, and that the younger sister is three months old. She was going to the seaside to make a living. I heard that my husband died on the way. Something to do! Sister-in-law Li, what can you do if the world is so chaotic? Be careful when you travel far!"

Mrs. Li sighed and said: "Our manager said that this shop has the most knives and weapons. Everyone has to bring a knife with him when he travels far away. But after all, I think the past few years have been pretty good. In the past When there is chaos, at that time, which place is not chaos? This girl from the Lin family seems to be a poor person!"

The sister of the Zhu family said worriedly: "I don't know if this newcomer is easy to get along with? The two of my family are the kings of the sky. If you meet a difficult family, you will be troubled in the future!"

Mrs. Li comforted her and said, "Which family doesn't have children? Which family's children are safe? Everyone is away from home, so I don't think it will be too difficult?"

Lin Yu listened to the conversation between the two women. Although he said they were talking about her behind her back, they didn't say anything bad. Judging from what they said, they were still gentlemen, and it seemed that they wouldn't be too difficult to get along with.

After turning around for a while, Lin Yu came in. Seeing her coming back, Lin Sang asked anxiously, "Yu'er, it's getting dark, so you can't wander around."

Lin Yu smiled and said, "Brother, I'm all to blame for letting my sister eat so much food. If I can't digest it, I'll have to ask you to get up and take a walk with me in the middle of the night."

Lin Sang said distressedly: "Even though my brother doesn't know why you came so far to the south, you didn't eat or drink well along the way, and you didn't think anything was wrong, but the child in your stomach should be careful."

Lin Yu was a little tired from walking, so she sat down and took a sip of the water that Lin Sang handed over, and said with a smile, "Brother, if any girl marries you in the future, she must be a happy little wife!"

Lin Sang said shyly, "What little daughter-in-law! Brother is not in a hurry."

Lin Yu said sincerely: "Brother, when we find a place to settle down, I will find a good girl for you and come back to be your sister-in-law!"

Lin Sang said embarrassingly: "Yu'er, brother is really not in a hurry. I just want to ask you, what are we going to do now? We can't just sit at home, don't say that we only have a little money, no matter how much money we have. will eat poor."

Lin Yu remembered that this was the seaside, the kelp was very cheap, and the crystallization of kelp was so fresh that it could be used as monosodium glutamate, so she had an idea: "Brother, you should find a restaurant to work."

Lin Sang asked puzzledly: "Why are you looking for a restaurant? We can buy another guy to do the tofu business. This way we can earn more money."

Lin Yu shook his head and said, "Brother, I'm not going to let you go to the restaurant to be a boy all the time. It's too tiring and too difficult to do. Do you remember the kelp powder I made? I want to sell it to Go to the restaurant."

Lin Sang's eyes lit up: "You said it's the powder you often use when cooking?"

Lin Yu nodded and said, "Well, that's the thing! The kelp here is worthless, but after we make the powder, I'm afraid we can earn a lot of money!"

Lin Sang said excitedly: "Okay, brother will go to work in a restaurant tomorrow! Yu'er, what do you need to prepare? Write it down and I'll bring it back in the afternoon."

Lin Yu pondered for a while before saying: "We need to hire someone to build a stove, and then ask Blacksmith Li in the front room to make a round pot for us, and then we will buy kelp and flour or rice noodles, and then bring some small ones. Once the porcelain jar comes back, it will be done!"

Lin Sang wrote down the things his sister asked him to buy one by one, and finally put down the pen and paper in his hand and asked, "Yu'er, brother wants to tell you the truth, you already have a child in your stomach, you really don't want to go back to the backing Have you settled it?"

Lin Yu shook his head and said, "I don't want to go back in recent years!"

Lin Sang asked again: "Is the reconciliation between you and Second Brother Xiao insignificant?"

Lin Yu was stunned: "Brother, do you know?"

Lin Sang nodded: "Yu'er, what will you do if Second Brother Xiao finds you?"

"What should I do? No matter what, let him rewrite a letter of divorce or divorce!" Lin Yu said lightly.

Lin Sang asked again: "What if he disagrees?"

Lin Yu smiled bitterly and said, "Brother, he won't disagree! I'm afraid that the reason why he came to me in a hurry is to solve this problem! Even if I disagree, I'm afraid he will be anxious!"

Lin Sang was even more puzzled: "Yu'er, what happened to you guys? Brother Xiao has always loved you very much, how could he suddenly write you a fake letter of Heli and leave? "

Lin Yu shook his head lightly and said, "Brother, don't ask! In short, he is the one who wants to leave, not your sister, I let him go. He is a person who does great things, not someone that a village girl like me can be worthy of. , you don’t need to ask any more, I think he will definitely not find him again, from now on I will spend my whole life with my elder brother and sister-in-law, and of course my children! Will my elder brother make things difficult for me?”

Lin Sang sighed and said: "Why is it difficult for my brother? It's just that my brother is not willing to let my sister live alone with the child at a young age! You see farther than my brother. Now that you have made up your mind, my brother will not ask you again. !"
