Lin Yuxi took Xiaoduo home and took a small slice of ginseng, preparing to give it to Zhou and Yu next time, and another portion to Wang.
In any case, it is a little weak, and it is not impossible to make up for it a little.
But she felt that the problem was not with them, and they had to find the other half's reasons.
After experiencing Li Li's case, Lin Joy is no longer so naive. Men at this time are different from those in the previous life who would go to the hospital to see the men's department by themselves. They are very face-saving.
Even if it was a previous life, I could only see it secretly and understand it.
The next day, Lin Yuxi took Xiaoduo to the river to wash clothes. Although a well had been drilled in the yard, it was more convenient to wash clothes by the river.
It was afternoon when we went there, and there were no people by the river. There was a man squatting by the grass in the distance.
Lin Yuxi took a closer look and saw that it was Chen Xiuyun.
Xiaoduo called someone, "Sister-in-law."
Chen Xiuyun heard the voice, wiped her tears and turned around, "Sister-in-law, Xiaoduo."
Lin Yuxi put her things on the stone slab next to her, "What's wrong? You were bullied by your mother and you are hiding here crying alone?"
"No, I didn't cry..."
Lin Joy stared at her, her eyes seeming to say: Do you think I believe it?
Chen Xiuyun was a little embarrassed and turned away again to wipe her tears.
Lin Xixi didn't insist on asking why she was crying, but just asked casually. Chen Xiuyun didn't say anything, so she stopped asking, and played with Xiaoduo on the lawn for a while before going to wash clothes.
Later, Chen Xiuyun's clothes must have been washed first, and she took her clothes to help wash them.
Lin Xixi smiled and said, "Thank you."
Chen Xiuyun hesitated for a moment, then said, "Sister-in-law, my grandparents seem to have made a marriage arrangement for me, but I don't want it."
"Are you just sad about this?" Lin Yuxi thought for a moment and said, "Then tell them you don't want to."
"They won't listen to me. Anyway, it doesn't matter whether I want it or not. They just consider whether the money is enough. Sister-in-law, wasn't this how you were married to my eldest brother?"
Lin Joy tilted his head and looked at her, "Are you saying that I don't want to marry your eldest brother at all?"
Chen Xiuyun was stunned for a moment, lowered his head, "I didn't mean that."
"So what, what you said is the truth anyway. Look, he is a sick man. Who wants to marry a sick man? Although he is getting better now, if he were to choose again, he would definitely not be chosen."
Lin Joy didn't know what the original Lin Joy was thinking. Anyway, she was unwilling to lose her life without feelings.
Chen Xiuyun said, "If only I were like you, I could just say what I'm thinking."
"It's up to you whether you say it or not." Lin Yuxi knew that these ideas were too advanced for her, but she still said so.
After washing the clothes, Chen Xiuyun finally decided to tell Lin Yuxi what happened.
"I heard my grandma telling my parents that they wanted to give me one hundred taels of silver and that they wanted to adopt me to the third grandpa's house, but the third grandpa was unwilling and even scolded my grandma."
Lin Yuxi thought to herself, one hundred taels, that must not be an ordinary family. Are you marrying an old man or being a concubine?
Chen Xiuyun was about to cry as she spoke, "Sister-in-law, I don't want to get married. They must want me to be a concubine. They are afraid of affecting my brother's reputation, so they want to adopt me out. Can you help me?"
good?"
Lin Joy said, "I can't help you with this matter. As you know, we have separated. Now I just want to live my own life and don't want to provoke them."
She is soft-hearted, but she doesn't take everything on her. If Wu's dream is shattered, it would be like poking a hornet's nest.
Chen Xiuyun didn't blame her, but she suddenly became desperate again, because she felt that Lin Joy was her only hope, and now her hope had rejected her.
She couldn't think of any other way besides finding Lin Joy.
"I understand. Anyway, thank you sister-in-law for saying these things to me." Chen Xiuyun nodded, helped Lin Yuxi pack up, and then went home carrying her own basket.
Lin Hexi looked at her back and sighed, oh, why don't you feel comfortable?
Xiaoduo picked two more small flowers for her. The weather was cold, so it would be good to find these two.
"Mother, why don't you smile?"
Lin Yuxi came back to her senses and touched her head, "Isn't she smiling? Xiaoduo is so good."
At night, Lin Xixi waited for Xiaoduo to fall asleep, and then cooked a pot of health tea for Chen Zhongqian.
Recently, Dean Yue wanted to accept direct disciples, and everyone was working hard, including Chen Zhongqian. Now that he has decided to take this path, it is of course easier to find a powerful teacher for himself.
After he returns home, he will teach Xiao Duo how to read and read Xiao Yu's homework. After dinner, he will help Lin Yuxi clean up, exercise in the yard, and then go back to the house to read.
Lin Hexi went in quietly, and he was watching intently. He didn't put the book down until she put the teapot in his hand.
"Still not asleep?"
"Seeing that you work too hard, I'm afraid that you will be exhausted and no one will help me with the work, so I brought you a cup of tea." Lin Yuxi said.
Chen Zhongqian smiled. She always liked this. She was obviously concerned, but she wanted to make herself look like a bad woman.
He poured a cup of tea and drank it. It had a herbal aroma, which was light and a little sweet. He didn't know how it was mixed.
Anyway, after drinking it, I felt less tired, slept more deeply than before, and woke up refreshed the next morning.
Lin Xiyi did not leave immediately after giving the tea. He went to see the sleeping Xiaoyu, but still did not leave. Chen Zhongqian turned around and asked, "Is there anything else?"
"It's not really a problem, I just feel a little bored."
She told Chen Zhongqian what Chen Xiuyun told her today, "I'm not very capable, so I can't help that much, but I feel that she is quite wronged. What do you think?"
Regarding this matter, Chen Zhongqian had the same idea as her.
He will also feel that Chen Xiuyun is quite innocent, Chen Mingyi and Wu will not care what she thinks, and Chen Hongchang and Yang also use her as a tool to exchange money.
But now that his family is living a pretty good life, he is unwilling to break the current peace for Chen Xiuyun, unless he can come up with a best-of-two-pronged approach that will prevent the Chen family from causing trouble and help Chen Xiuyun.
Lin Yuxi just complained to him and smiled, "I'm going to bed first, don't watch it too late."
"Um."
Lin Yuxi went out of his room and sat in the yard for a while.
When did she, a person from the 21st century, have such feelings for the people here?
He turned out to be a warm-hearted person who felt uncomfortable even though he couldn't help others. He was really looking for trouble.
