Chapter 13 A monk who can run away can't run away from the temple

Chapter 13: The monk can escape but cannot escape the temple

Lin Zhi didn't show any displeasure because of her ridicule, "The hens that don't lay eggs are probably sick. What should I do if my aunt brings the chickens back and gets infected?"

"Don't scare me with such words!" Wu Chunxia said this, but she was still feeling embarrassed. Her family also raised two chickens, but she couldn't afford to worry about it.

"As long as Auntie doesn't blame me for not reminding her in the future." Lin Zhi sat down on the chair, with the words "As you wish" written on her face.

"No wonder the chickens at home have been looking so weak these past two days." Nie Chong muttered to himself beside him, then looked at Wu Chunxia, ​​"Auntie, why don't you find someone to take a look at it?"

"It doesn't cost money to see a doctor. Besides, you don't know whether you are sick or not."

Wu Chunxia was a farmer, so of course she knew that chickens were sick and couldn't lay eggs. She couldn't take sick chickens. Anyway, monks couldn't run away from the temple. She would wait and see the situation in a few days.

Gu~

Lin Zhi, who was sitting on a chair to rest, lazily touched her belly and asked, "Is lunch ready?"

Wu Chunxia got angry when she saw her ordering people, "Do you think you are here to enjoy a blessing? You know you have to eat at noon, but you don't know that you have to go to the fields to help, and you still have our family to serve you?"

"Didn't Auntie say yesterday that Brother Chong and I are not missing a bowl of rice? And I don't know how to cook."

"Who is born knowing how to cook?" Wu Chunxia was polite to her, but she took it seriously and her eyes darkened, "Which family's daughter-in-law doesn't work? I really don't know how her family taught her how to do it.

If you want to live and have food to eat, just dream!"

Wu Chunxia glared at her, then slammed the door and walked out. I'll feed you a few meals to see if you're still honest!

"She didn't do anything to you, right?" After Wu Chunxia walked away, Lin Zhi turned around and asked Nie Chong. He shook his head and said, "I'm sorry, I came back late. She didn't get suspicious, right?"

"No, I didn't say anything." Nie Chong looked at Lin Zhi's hair, "Sister-in-law, where have you been? Why did you cut your hair?"

"Does it look good?" Lin Zhi shook her head, her flowing hair swaying with her movements.

"Good-looking." My sister-in-law is truly the most beautiful person he has ever seen.

"Hair can be sold for money, and I've sold a lot of it." What they need most now is trust in each other, so Lin Zhi didn't hide it from Nie Chong, "By the way, I even bought something..."

She brought in the bag hidden in the yard. In addition to a bag of books, Lin Zhi also bought a bag of mung beans, two toothbrushes, several rolls of gauze, and a tube of toothpaste. These few things alone made her exhausted.

.

Lin Zhi gave one of the toothbrushes to Nie Chong, "This is for you. Brush it morning and night. This is good for your teeth and makes you less likely to get sick. If your eldest brother can't brush his teeth, just wipe them with gauze."

She can tolerate other things, but she really can't do it without brushing her teeth.

Nie Chong originally thought that Lin Zhi had forgotten Nie Shujun's toothbrush. Seeing that she was thinking about his eldest brother, he nodded happily, "Hmm... are these books going to be used to light the fire?"

"Of course not, I want to read these books."

"Can't you read such a dirty book?" Nie Chong opened one at random and saw Lin Zhi's name written on it, "Hey, this is my sister-in-law's book?"

"My dream is to be a doctor. Only by studying can I have the opportunity to go to university. Only by passing the university can I become a doctor and treat others."

Lin Zhi's eyes shone brightly, and for a moment something seemed to hit Nie Chong's heart, as if studying was a great thing, and being a doctor was also a great thing.

He thought of the books he had thrown in the corner and suddenly felt a little ashamed.

In the past, his eldest brother often told him that only by studying can he have a future.

If nothing happens to my eldest brother, I will definitely be able to talk to my sister-in-law...

Lin Zhi checked it and found that several of the books were dirty, torn, and wrinkled. It seemed that they needed to be sorted out before they could be used.

"What are you going to do with these soybeans?"

After helping Lin Zhi pack away the books, Nie Chong noticed the bag of soybeans. How many kilograms did it cost?

"I plan to grow some bean sprouts and sell them in town to make some money."

"We have soybeans at home, we can ask aunt for them."

"..."

Lin Zhi had actually forgotten about this incident.

You know, she was very tired when she walked back carrying five pounds of soybeans and a bag of books.

But she didn't buy much, "These are fresh soybeans, for growing bean sprouts."

The germination rate of old beans is not high. Lin Zhi didn't understand this, so she asked Aunt Fang specifically. She often went to the vegetable market and knew where the soybeans were fresh and cheap, which could save Lin Zhi a lot of effort.

Then she asked, "Do you have a larger basin at home?"

"Except for the basin for eating, the rest are in my mother's room. My sister-in-law can choose what she wants."

Although a lot of the eating bowls were stolen by the second roommate, the basins for washing faces and washing clothes were still there, but these were used on a daily basis, and there was nothing extra for Lin Zhi.

When he was in trouble, Nie Chong took out two brand new enamel basins from under the bed, "These were originally intended for eldest brother's wedding. Sister-in-law, do you think this is okay?"

Although it was a bit small, it should be enough for the time being, but when she heard that it was for Nie Shujun's wedding, she was a little hesitant, "Can I use it?"

"You are already my sister-in-law, and you can use everything in the house." Nie Chong blinked, does his sister-in-law still regard him as an outsider?

"Then I won't be polite." At most, she can wait until she makes money and then buy new ones to compensate him.

All that was needed was the east wind. After Linzhi cleaned the two water basins and put them in the yard to dry, she was so hungry that her chest pressed against her back.

She called Nie Chong, who was also hungry, "Let's go eat."

Nie Chong stood still and said, "Auntie's house doesn't have anything to eat at this point. I went to the mountain to pick up some firewood in the morning, and I also picked a few cucumbers when I came back. Let's deal with it today."

In the era when briquettes were not yet popular, firewood was also an extremely important resource. Sometimes it was impossible to pick it up even if you wanted to. Therefore, every household had to prepare some in case of emergency needs.

It seems that all the firewood at home is piled up by Wu Chunxia...

"We can eat like this, but what does your brother want to eat?" Lin Zhi smiled lightly, "It doesn't matter, let's go and see."

"How about I go by myself, and you can take care of my eldest brother at home... My eldest brother hasn't wiped himself yet today."

Wu Chunxia didn't look like she was joking just now. Nie Chong really didn't want his sister-in-law to scold her again, so he might as well let her cultivate a relationship with her eldest brother.

Clean up Nie Shujun...

Lin Zhi definitely didn't want to shirk, "Then why don't we come back quickly? Besides, you can't carry so many things by yourself."

So many things?

My sister-in-law must have fainted from hunger.

Nie Chong thought it would be good if they could get two Wowotou back.

He couldn't bear to hit Lin Zhi, so he could only follow her silently, thinking about how he should speak to Wu Chunxia when he saw her later.
