When Mrs. Lin saw Lin Xiaoman, her eyes suddenly widened and she took two steps back.

But then I realized that this seemed too guilty, so I forced myself to stand upright and said, "Damn girl, you don't know how to scream when you see someone?"

Her face, which originally seemed quite peaceful, turned out to be meaner than before, either because her mouth was crooked or because her true nature was exposed and she didn't want to pretend anymore.

Even her voice was slurred, obviously a sequelae of a crooked mouth.

Lin Xiaoman didn't seem to hear Mrs. Lin's scolding, and walked past Mrs. Lin without looking away. He thought that Mrs. Lin would catch up and continue to scold her like before, but she didn't expect that she didn't say a word.

As she passed by, Lin Xiaoman heard her exhale suddenly.

Are you afraid of her?

Lin Xiaoman looked back and saw Mrs. Lin's face that was ferocious with hatred.

Unexpectedly, Lin Xiaoman would turn around suddenly. Mrs. Lin hurriedly put away the expression on her face, but the muscles on her face were out of control, and the expression was put away too quickly, making her look extremely funny.

Lin Xiaoman chuckled, and the laughter was full of sarcasm, which made Mrs. Lin grit her teeth in anger.

After walking for a while, Lin Dajiao suddenly said: "You nursed her... your mother was so frightened that she had a stroke."

Lin Xiaoman raised his eyebrows, "I can still walk, it's not serious."

Lin Dajiao snorted coldly, "Is it serious? Your mother is also soft-hearted. Why didn't you take her away?"

Lin Xiaoman looked back at Mrs. Lin's figure still standing there, bit her lip and murmured: "Yeah, why didn't you take her away?"

Lin Dajiao talked about the things about Old Mrs. Lin's family again. Before, people in the village knew about Lin Xiaoman and Old Mrs. Lin's family, and they didn't know how to tell Lin Xiaoman about the things about Old Mrs. Lin's family. Lin Xiaoman was happy or unhappy.

No one came to Lin Xiaoman to say this.

Lin Xiaoman and Lin Erhu were both very busy and seldom walked around the village. When Lin Goudan came over a few days ago, he didn't mention the situation of Mrs. Lin to them. The two siblings really didn't know Mrs. Lin.

What happened to Tai’s family recently.

After listening to Lin Dajiao's words, Lin Xiaoman realized that on the New Year's Eve, both Mrs. Lin and Mr. Lin were frightened and fainted. When Mr. Lin and his family got up in the morning and finished sweeping the snow in the yard, and came to call the old couple, Mr. Lin hid in there by himself.

In the room next to her, Mrs. Lin was left alone, lying on the kang covered in filth, with more air coming out and less air coming in.

What's rare is that the road was blocked by heavy snow, and it was already two days later when the village doctor was invited. Not only did Mrs. Lin not die, she also recovered.

Lin Dajiao said: "You were frightened. When you woke up, you shouted that your mother was here, and you scolded your aunt as your mother. She ate and pulled on the bed, and tortured your aunt to pieces. Later, the road was opened.

Soon, your uncle left with his family, saying he was going to the city to do business. Your uncle was lying on the kang and couldn't get up. Your uncle and his family were able to go to the fields the next day after they left. Everyone in the village said she was just faking.

, just to train your auntie."

Lin Xiaoman thought of Mrs. Yao. She couldn't explain how she felt about this eldest uncle. When her parents were here, Mrs. Yao sweet-talked them and was more affectionate to them than to her own children.

But her parents were gone, and although the Yao family didn't explicitly abuse them, they still scolded them for being a loser, scolding them for killing their parents, and driving them around like spinning tops.

Life in the Lin family was difficult, at least half of it was because of Yao's instigation.

Lin Xiaoman was angry with her. The only one who had the best relationship with his uncle's family was Lin Goudan, and even Lin Wenyao was a complete snobbery.

What's rare is that after their family separated, they didn't disturb their siblings' lives again. Perhaps it was because she asked Erhu to give Lin Wenyao the two taels of silver.

Although her uncle's family doesn't need to be friends, as long as they don't plot against her family like Lin Laosan, she doesn't mind helping each other.

"Auntie, do you know where my uncle's family has moved?"

Lin Dajiao said: "I heard from my eldest brother that it seems that in Huaihua Hutong, your uncle has a stall selling tea bought from your fourth grandma. I heard that the business is not bad, but he still has to support your eldest cousin to study and live.

It has to be tight."

Huaihua Hutong is not far from the county government office. It is a lively street, and most businesses doing business there do well.

Lin Xiaoman just didn't expect that they would sell tea for two cents a bowl. How much can they earn in a good day if the business is good? Here, even a well-off family cannot afford to support a few scholars, let alone start from scratch with nothing.

Boss Lin has a family, and she admires them.

Now Lin Wenyao is obviously grateful to their brother and sister. At this time, if she helps their family again, if he obtains a meritorious service and becomes an official in the future, they and their brother can also rely on the big tree to enjoy the shade.

.

Lin Xiaoman kept this in mind, told Lin Dajiao some village gossip and returned to the west of the village.

The aroma of meat is also wafting in the west of the village, but it is not as good as the pots made by Lin Xiaoman, but it is still meat after all. Many Xu family members gathered outside the yard where Peng Guancha and others lived, waiting to share the food.

Peng Guancha saw Lin Xiaoman greeting her, "Miss Xiaoman, my meat has been divided. Should you come over and help me cook it? Or should I send it to your house?"

Lin Xiaoman was holding two bowls of vegetables, and there was no more meat left in his hands. When he was about to ask Peng Guancha to send it over, Lin Erhu came out from Xu Qiuliang's house nearby.

Lin Xiaoman said: "Erhu, take Uncle Peng's meat."

Lin Erhu agreed to take Peng Guancha's meat, which contained more than twenty kilograms of meat. Peng Guancha was afraid that he would take it away, but seeing that he took it easily, he thought that his own one was about the same size as Lin Erhu.

The son, who couldn't even carry a basin of water, suddenly lamented: A child without a father and a mother is pitiful.

Xu Qiuliang stood at the entrance of the courtyard and waited for his siblings and Lin Dajiao to pass by. He said to Lin Erhu: "You can memorize all the lessons I taught you today. I will test you tomorrow."

Lin Erhu simply said, "I got it!"

Lin Xiaoman saw that when Lin Dajiao saw Xu Qiuliang, her originally dark face quickly became rosy. When Xu Qiuliang saw Lin Dajiao, his fair face also turned a little red.

Is this... a show?

Lin Xiaoman was happy for Lin Dajiao. She was originally worried that Xu Qiuliang, once a high official, would look down on a mountain village woman like Lin Dajiao. But now it seems that since he did not refuse and did not show off to Lin Dajiao, he mentioned it to Lu Jin.

He is quite pleased with this marriage.

When the two of them come into contact in a few days of land reclamation, their relationship may develop by leaps and bounds.

Just when Lin Xiaoman thought that scholars were thin-skinned and did not dare to show too obviously in front of everyone, Xu Qiuliang cleared his throat and asked in a low voice: "Miss Lin, what is in your bowl?"

Lin Xiaoman was still wondering why Xu Qiuliang's name for him had changed. When he looked over, what he saw was Xu Qiuliang staring at the bowl in Lin Dajiao's hand.

Lin Dajiao was also surprised. She glanced at the bowl she was holding in her hand and said, "This is wild boar stewed with potatoes, and the top is braised pig offal."

After the introduction, he hesitated and asked: "Sir, do you want to try it?"
