The Lin family originally had only three adobe houses. Later, after Lin Yueniang took the original owner back to Lujiacun, she made money and built two thatched houses in the corner.
Later, Ge Shi did not want to see Lin Yueniang and her mother, Mrs. Lin, so Lin Yueniang simply took Mrs. Lin into her thatched house.
On weekdays, the Ge family of three ate with the door closed, ignoring Lin Yueniang and Mrs. Lin. Gradually, these people who came in from the same door gradually became two families.
Even so, Ge was still not satisfied. She wanted to drive Lin Yueniang and Mrs. Lin out of the house, but she was afraid that this would be detrimental to her son's future academic achievements, so she had to give up.
When Li Tannian arrived at Lin's house, Lin Yueniang happened to be gone, so she simply carried her things into Mrs. Lin's room.
Mrs. Lin has been paralyzed for many years, but she is always very clear-headed. Seeing Li Tannian coming over, her yellow eyes moved. When she saw the person clearly, a look of disbelief appeared on her face.
"Sister Nian, why are you back?" After asking this, she felt a little scared again.
Sister Nian had long been led astray by Ge. Normally, she disliked her and Lin Yueniang very much. Even when she came back, she would never enter her house.
Except, when she came to defraud money on behalf of Ge...
"Sister Nian, there is no money at home anymore. Your mother borrowed money from outside a while ago to send it to you. Don't blame your mother. It's all grandma who is useless and has dragged you and your mother down."
Li Tannian was stunned: "I'm here to give you some sprouts." After saying that, she put the sprouts on the small table next to Mrs. Lin's bed. Along the way, she took out a bag of money and gave it to Mrs. Lin.
too.
The money bag was bulging, and she added some more on top of the money Lin Yueniang gave her that day.
Mrs. Lin looked at the money bag and was shocked.
Sister Nian actually gave them money! In the past, Sister Nian disliked her as an old woman lying on the bed because she smelled too much. She would scold her for a while even when she passed her door. Now, she actually gave her money!
When Mrs. Lin reacted, she quickly handed the money bag to Li Tannian.
"Sister Nian, why did you give me this? Take it back quickly. Your mother can make tofu. Your mother and I are still hungry, but you. This is your mother's wish. No matter how much you blame her, don't blame her.
I have to refuse her kindness."
Li Tannian saw the anxiety and uneasiness on Old Mrs. Lin's face. She coughed dryly and said to herself: "Grandma, don't worry. I have made a small business recently and am not short of money. You should spend the money quickly."
"
Old Mrs. Lin had no idea that Li Tannian would actually make a living. Her old, cloudy eyes were filled with tears.
"Sister Nian, you have really grown up, and your mother should be relieved."
Seeing her tearful appearance, Li Tannian finally couldn't bear it. He was afraid that if he stayed any longer, she would cry endlessly, so he had to say a few more words and left in a hurry.
But what she didn't know about her was that Gemini had been peeking at her in the room.
As soon as Li Tannian left, Ge Shi entered Old Mrs. Lin's room. Seeing that Old Mrs. Lin was holding such a large bag of money, a glimmer of light flashed on her face, and she reached out and took the money bag from Lin.
The old lady snatched it from her hand.
"Eldest daughter-in-law, this is what Sister Nian gave to Yueniang. You can't take it for her."
As soon as Mrs. Lin finished speaking, she was glared at by Ge Shi fiercely: "If I don't tell you, if you don't tell me, how could Lin Yueniang know about it? You'd better not talk too much!"
After humming, Lin Yueniang spotted the sprouts on the side table again. Her eyes lit up and she hurriedly carried the sprouts out.
"Daughter-in-law, you, how could you do this? You are trying to force me to death!"
Lin Yueniang pretended not to hear Mrs. Lin's voice, but Lin Ziyan, who was in the room and was a scholar, heard the sound and said with some dissatisfaction: "Mom, what are you arguing with Grandma? Grandma?"
Her body is like that, why can't you give her some space?"
Ge Shi didn't want to delay his son's studies, so he responded repeatedly and handed the maltose to Lin Ziyan.
"Brother Yan, try it quickly. This maltose is so sweet. When you are hungry while studying, why don't you try it together?"
"Mom, where did you come from this good stuff?" Lin Ziyan said with joy on his face, "Hurry up and get some for me, and I'll send it to Yu Lian."
When Ge Shi heard this, he was not happy.
Although she likes Zhou Yulian's daughter-in-law, she hasn't married her yet. Even if she does, how can she be as noble as a man?
This good thing must be given to men!
With this thought in his mind, Geshi didn't show it on his face and just said: "Don't go, your sister Yulian must still be feeling uncomfortable."
"But because of what happened last time?" Lin Ziyan's face tightened.
He felt heartbroken when he thought of the last time Sister Lian had kindly cared about that ugly guy Li Tannian, but she came back angry and crying.
"No, Li Tannian just came here. Maybe Sister Lian ran into her outside. If you go like this, don't you make Sister Lian unhappy?"
Ge Shi kept up his efforts, and Lin Ziyan's face darkened: "Li Tannian just came here?"
"Is that possible? So, don't go." Ge's voice fell. Seeing that her son walked out angrily without saying a word, she hurriedly shouted, "Brother Ye, you are looking for Sister Lian, who is not here either."
It’s a while and a half, I’ll go back after eating some sprouted sugar!”
Lin Ziyan didn't reply and disappeared at the door of his house in an instant.
Seeing this, Ge Shi shook his head, sniffed the maltose a few more times, and then brought the maltose back to Lin Ziyan's room.
Anyway, as long as the son is given this good thing away, if he is willing to find Sister Lian, just wait for him to find her.
On the other side, when Li Tannian was approaching the gate of Patriarch Lu's house, he happened to meet Zhao Susu going out to dig wild vegetables.
Seeing her coming, Zhao Susu didn't even bother to dig wild vegetables, and directly took her to her home.
"Sister Nian, why are you here!" As she asked, she realized that there seemed to be something in her basket. When she opened the basket, she saw that it was actually a large bowl of sprouted sugar. She couldn't help but be startled.
"I made some sprouts for a few children. I thought Tie Qiu might also like them, so I brought some for him and brought you the basket along the way."
"You came right here, why did you bring anything with you!" Zhao Susu waved her hand and realized it later, she couldn't help but said in shock, "Did you make these sprouts? Sister Nian, you can actually make sprouts?"
When he saw Li Tannian nodding, Zhao Susu's whole face was filled with admiration.
"You're so good at making this candy. If you sell it in the town, it will cost a lot of money. Sister Nian, I really like you more and more!" She couldn't help but say with joy.
"If you want to learn, I can teach you." Li Tannian replied directly.
Zhao Susu waved her hands repeatedly. These skills are all for people to make a living. Sister Nian is a nice person, so she can't be so unkind.
Immediately, she said no matter what, she would drag him home.
Patriarch Lu's family has been separated for a long time. The eldest son and second son have already separated. Now, Patriarch Lu lives with his younger son.
Patriarch Lu's house is a large blue brick house that is rare in the village. As soon as he entered the door, he found that the courtyard was clean and tidy, and there was no one in the courtyard. Zhao Susu put away the maltose and went back to the house to pour her tea.
Li Tannian wanted to give the things away and leave, but Zhao Susu was so enthusiastic. Suddenly, he saw some semi-finished wooden tables and stools.
"My man made these, and she went to town to work!"
When Zhao Susu's voice came, Li Tannian remembered that her husband, Lu Cheng, was a carpenter. Then she thought of the tables, chairs and benches in her home that were missing arms and legs. She hurriedly asked, "Can Brother Cheng help me make some tables, chairs and benches for my house?"
Zhao Susu slapped her thigh and said very boldly: "Why not? When my man comes back, I will let him do it for you. Don't worry, it will be done in a few days."
Li Tannian thanked him. Thinking that he was often away from home, he hurriedly asked, "Can you give me another pair of crutches?"
When Zhao Susu slaps her thigh, this matter will be easier to handle!
She took a ready-made cane directly from the house and said, "Give it to you!"
Li Tannian looked at the 'old crutch' and couldn't help but shake his head: "That's not it."
Zhao Susu didn't understand, so Li Tannian asked her for paper and pen, and wanted to draw on paper for her to see. Zhao Susu hurriedly went into the room and took out Iron Ball's pen and paper.
Li Tannian quickly drew an armpit stick and explained its use to Zhao Susu. Zhao Susu listened for a long time, her eyes lit up, and she gradually felt proud of having discovered a great secret.
"Did you do it for Lu Zhi? Sister Nian, you are so kind to Lu Zhi! Lu Zhi married you, which is really a blessing he has cultivated in eight lifetimes. I knew that everything I told you was a lie! How could you possibly
For that Lin Ziyan..."
Zhao Susu suddenly realized that she had mentioned something she shouldn't have mentioned, and hurriedly shut up.
Li Tannian looked blank.
I'm afraid she is the only one in the whole village, Zhao Susu, who feels that Lu Zhi marrying her is a blessing earned through eight lifetimes.
With this thought in his mind, Li Tannian didn't say much. He just took out twenty or thirty copper coins and gave her as deposit.
Zhao Susu asked for nothing. Not only did they save Tie Qiu, but they also generously gave her a big bowl of maltose. How could she accept any more money from them?
"If you don't accept the money, I'll go out and buy it." Li Tannian said and was about to leave.
Seeing this, Zhao Susu had no choice but to accept her deposit, thinking that she would just charge her this much.
When Li Tannian came out of Patriarch Lu's house, she found someone following her. She curled her lips coldly, turned around and saw Lin Ziyan, who was wearing a green-gray straight skirt.
Lin Ziyan has red lips and white teeth, and is quite elegant.
If it weren't for the fact that his pupils shrank violently when he saw her, like a frightened rabbit, she might have looked at him one more time.
"What's the matter?" She twitched the corner of her mouth with a smile, and her mind recalled the time and time again that Ge Shi had coaxed money from the original owner.
Lin Ziyan looked pitiful and innocent and was obsessed with the original owner. I don't know if he knew that most of the money he spent came from the woman he hated the most.
When Lin Ziyan saw Li Tannian, his face turned pale subconsciously.
After a long time, he seemed to have overcome a huge psychological obstacle, and said with disgust on his face: "Li Tannian, why are you bullying Sister Lian? I have told you how many times, if you have any objections, just go to me.
Come on, Sister Lian is just a weak and weak woman! How can she be an eyesore to you?"
