The villagers clicked their tongues and ridiculed Wu Jingui and his wife and their eldest son for being idiots, and drove Lin Mai, the God of Wealth, out of the house.
Then she told Lin Mai that she was late. Just last month, Zhou Caiyun was driven back to her parents' home by her husband's family.
If you want to find Zhou Caiyun, you have to go to her natal home.
Lin Mai inquired about the detailed address of Zhou Caiyun's parents' home and drove a tractor there.
It's not raining heavily today, but the spring rain is lingering, so you still need to wear a raincoat.
When Lin Mai called from behind to stop Zhou Caiyun who had picked vegetables from the vegetable field and returned home, Lin Mai was wearing a raincoat, so Zhou Caiyun could not recognize her for a moment.
Lin Mai drove the tractor right in front of her, pushed back his raincoat and hat, and moved his head closer to her, pretending to be disappointed: "No, Sister Caiyun, you don't even remember me, but I always forget
I won’t let you go.”
Only then did Zhou Caiyun recognize her and was filled with surprise: "Mai Zi, why are you here?"
"Of course I came here to find you."
Lin Mai looked around and saw no one nearby.
Then he took out three big solidarity notes from his body and handed them to her: "This is private money for you. Take it and don't tell anyone."
Zhou Caiyun quickly hid behind him: "Why did you give me money? I don't want it!"
Lin Mai said seriously: "You helped me when I was kicked out of the Wu family. I gave you money, why don't you want it? I will be angry if you don't want it!"
Zhou Caiyun waved her hand: "You still keep that little thing in mind, I don't want the money anyway."
While the two were talking, a seven or eight-year-old boy ran over.
She said to Zhou Caiyun with a frosty face: "Auntie, my mother is waiting for you to go home to feed the pigs, but you are here chatting with others, eating our family's free food and not doing any work?"
After the little boy left, Zhou Caiyun smiled awkwardly at Lin Mai: "My brother's son is a child who is not sensible and does not understand the importance of what he says."
How could Lin and Mai not understand that the attitude of Zhou Caiyun's brother and children towards her was actually the attitude of her mother's family towards her.
If Zhou Caiyun's natal family was kind to him, her nephew would not and would not dare to speak to her like this.
He cannot say such a thing as a child. It must be because adults talk too much and listen too much that he can imitate others.
Originally, Lin Mai needed a helper when doing business. Since Zhou Caiyun was not doing well in her parents' family, it was better to ask her to work for her.
Lin Mai didn't say a word about her parents' treatment of her, so as not to make her sad: "Since I gave you the money and you don't want it, how about you work with me?
Food and accommodation are included, thirty yuan a month, and if business is good, there will be a commission."
Although Zhou Caiyun only returned to her parents' home for a month, she was kicked out by her husband's family and was sterile, so it was impossible for her to get married again.
In addition, Zhou Caiyun's natal village has many people but little land. After the fields were contracted to each household, her natal family was not allocated much land.
My family had little land for farming, and they had a married daughter named Zhou Caiyun, so my brother and sister-in-law disliked her very much.
Although her parents felt sorry for her, they couldn't care about her. Moreover, she was driven back by her parents' family. They thought she had lost the face of their Zhou family, so they treated her badly.
Although it was frustrating to live in her parents' house, Zhou Caiyun had no place to go and could only live a miserable life every day.
Now Lin Mai wants to take her away and give her a job, how can she disagree?
He immediately said happily: "Okay, I'll go back and say hello to my parents, brother and sister-in-law, pack my things and follow you."
Zhou Caiyun returned home and soon brought her father and brother.
She smiled apologetically at Lin Mai: "My dad and brother want to invite you to our house."
Lin Mai drove the tractor to the door of her parents' house, got off the tractor, and entered the house with Zhou Caiyun, her father and her brother.
On rainy days, almost all of Zhou Caiyun’s natal family were at home.
Zhou's mother and Zhou Caiyun's sister-in-law were quite enthusiastic when they met Lin Mai. They invited her to sit down and made her some brown sugar water.
Lin Mai smiled and asked them to be welcome.
After everyone sat down, Father Zhou spoke: "I heard from Caiyun that you want to bring her to the city to work for you?"
Lin Mai nodded: "Don't you agree?"
Father Zhou smiled: "Why don't you agree! It's just that we don't know much about you..."
At this point, he became hesitant: "If I'm not afraid of making you angry, what if you are a human trafficker and kidnapped Caiyun and sold her?"
Father Zhou smiled and said, "Don't blame me for overthinking. The world has been too complicated in the past two years and there are too many bad people.
Just in the past two months, there was a young man in our village who wanted to work in the city, but he left and never returned.
Later, the body was found in a remote corner of the city, and the case has not been solved yet."
Although Zhou Caiyun was kicked out by her husband's family, living in her husband's family made them lose face and made their life even more difficult.
But after all, she was their daughter. They disliked her, but they never thought about letting her have any good or bad consequences.
Lin Mai smiled: "I can understand your worries. I have a good relationship with Grandpa Fang from Simei Town. I can ask Grandpa Fang to guarantee Sister Caiyun's safety. What do you think?"
Grandpa Fang is somewhat famous in the entire area. If he comes forward to vouch for it, Zhou's father, Zhou's mother and others will naturally feel at ease.
Lin Mai drove a tractor and took Zhou Caiyun, her father and her brother back to Simei Town.
Grandpa Fang not only vouched for it himself, but also arrested several cadres from the brigade to vouch with him. Father Zhou and Brother Zhou were relieved.
Because he knew that Lin Mai would not take Zhou Caiyun back to the city until the rain stopped, Zhou's father specially invited Lin Mai to have a meal at his house tomorrow to express his gratitude.
Lin Mai waved her hand and declined: "I am not free tomorrow. When the rain stops, I will go to the uncle's village to pick up Sister Caiyun and then go to the uncle's house for dinner."
It rained for four days before it stopped.
In the past four days, Lin Mai drove a tractor and collected thousands of eggs at a price of three cents each, as well as several hundred kilograms of flour.
I also bought some cooking oil and rice.
She collected ten large jars of potherb mustard pickles.
She paid a deposit for all these jars of pickles.
She collects mustard pickles to make sauerkraut buns, and the sauerkraut buns are delicious after adjusting the flavor.
The rain stopped on the fifth day, the flowers were red and the grass was green, and the air was so fresh it felt like we were in an oxygen bar.
Even the birds were chirping excitedly. Everyone loves a sunny day.
After breakfast, Lin Mai was going to take Doudou to Zhou Caiyun's parents' house and pick her up to go to the city with her.
Grandpa Fang and Grandma Fang helped her put eggs, flour, cooking oil, rice, mustard pickles on the tractor.
Neighbors saw him and came over to help him.
At this time, Wu Xiaotao slowly came over with a small basket in his hand.
Lin Mai saw it and pretended not to see it.
Grandma Fang didn't know why, so she asked her kindly: "Daughter, who are you looking for?"
Wu Xiaotao looked straight at Lin Mai and said timidly: "I have something to say to my sister-in-law~"
"Your sister-in-law?" Grandma Fang looked at her, then at Lin Mai, suddenly realized, and asked in a deep voice, "Are you Wu Xiaoyu's sister?"
Wu Xiaotao nodded.
Grandma Fang’s expression turned ugly at that time: “Mai Zi has nothing to do with your brother, why do you call her sister-in-law?
Let me tell you, you can eat shit, but you can't scream!"
When several neighbors who were helping heard this, they burst into laughter.
