Siheyuan: Starting from the Old Society

"Hello, Mr. Lin!" Sato Haruo was the first to greet.

Lin Si'an was no stranger to him, having done business with him before. Could it be that he was looking for her to do business again?

"Hello, Mr. Sato. What business do you want to discuss this time?" Lin Sian asked with a smile.

"I just want to buy something from you!" Kudo Haruo was very humble.

Of course, you can never judge a person by his appearance. Lin Sian would not think that he is a good person just because of his appearance.

The two entered the office for a detailed discussion and soon signed the contract. In addition to the previous transaction items, Sato Haruo also purchased a large amount of oil, which was a huge amount.

Then Lin Sian came to the warehouse.

Seeing the five brand new cars, Lin Sian nodded with satisfaction.

These cars are all Ford brand, so of course he has to support his own products.

He tried driving one of them, and although the manual transmission and the right-side driver's seat made him feel a little awkward, it was generally pretty good.

The guards seemed extremely excited. After all, they would no longer have to do such hard labor as pulling carts.

"Zhou Qiang, order another car for me." Lin Sian decided that since Hao Meili was also a member of the family, she couldn't be left out.

After returning home, five cars were parked outside the yard, attracting many neighbors to watch and causing a traffic jam for a while.

Lin Sian was embarrassed to ask the guards to disperse them, so he asked Zhou Wu, who was patrolling nearby, to come forward to assist.

At the same time, he decided to open a gate in the yard next door so that cars could be parked directly in the yard.

"Si'an, you are really generous. You bought five cars at once." Chen Ruoting seemed to be praising, but there was a hint of sarcasm in her tone.

Indeed, for a family, one car is enough. Even if there are many people in the family, two cars are definitely enough. There is no need to buy five cars. Isn't it a waste of money?

"Si'an, let me guess, you should have a house and a car, right?" Xiu Yu on the side said excitedly.

"Hehe, my Xiu Yu is still smart." Lin Sian praised and kissed her on the cheek.

At this moment, the car on the far left suddenly started, then began to reverse and drove in front of Lin Sian.

Everyone looked closely and found that it was Qiu Haitang who was driving.

Lin Sian looked at her with some concern. After all, she was pregnant. What if she drove too fast and got into a car accident?

But Qiu Haitang didn't seem to care. She rolled down the window and asked, "Si'an, can I take you for a ride?"

"Haitang, you're so pregnant, you'd better not drive. The car is so bumpy, you might lose the baby." Lin Sian threatened.

Qiu Haitang rolled her eyes, stepped on the accelerator and drove away quickly. Lin Sian immediately became anxious and quickly sent someone to look for her.

Fortunately, Qiu Haitang knew her limits and came back not long after.

It was already dinner time and everyone sat together to eat.

Chen Ruoting did not forget to criticize Qiu Haitang, but Lin Sian did not want to dwell on this issue too much.

He asked about Hao Meili's whereabouts.

"Jinque, go and invite Aunt Hao to come for dinner." Chen Ruoting ordered.

"Madam, Aunt Hao went out early in the morning and hasn't come back yet." Jinque responded.

"Alas, people are becoming more and more unruly nowadays." Chen Ruoting said as she glanced at Qiu Haitang, obviously making a veiled suggestion.

Damn it! Chen Ruoting, you bitch! Qiu Haitang cursed inwardly.

Lin Sian seemed a little worried about Hao Meili. After all, what happened last night was a big blow to her.

Therefore, after dinner, he asked Agui to take a few people to Hao Meili's parents' home to check out the situation.

It was not until nine o'clock in the evening that Ah Gui came back in a hurry. "Mr. Lin, something bad has happened!" he reported in a panic.

"What's going on?" Lin Sian's heart tightened, and he had an ominous premonition!

Ah Gui reported: "Master Li, Fifth Concubine's mother hanged herself yesterday!"

Lin Sian was shocked when he heard this and immediately rushed to Hao Meili's room to visit her.

"Beautiful, beautiful, beautiful!" Lin Sian called out anxiously.

He walked into the room and saw Hao Meili sitting motionless on the bed, her face stiff and haggard, her eyes empty and lifeless, like a body without a soul.

Lin Sian's call seemed not to reach her ears, and she did not respond.

Even when Lin Sian sat next to her, there was no fluctuation on her face.

"Meili, what happened to your mother?" Lin Sian asked softly, holding her hand gently.

Her hands were as cold as ice.

Wrapped in Lin Sian's warmth, Hao Meili seemed to regain some vitality.

She turned her head to look at Lin Sian, tears rolling down her eyes, leaving two tear marks on her face.

"My mother is dead!" she cried out, but her voice was hoarse from not having any water for the whole day.

Seeing her suddenly out of control emotions, Lin Sian hugged her tightly and comforted her softly:

"Meili, don't get excited. I am also very sad about your mother's death, but the dead cannot be resurrected.

"The most important thing for us now is to take care of your mother's funeral and let her pass away peacefully and with dignity. This is the last thing we can do for her."

After hearing Lin Sian's words, Hao Meili seemed to regain her composure. She struggled to sit up from Lin Sian's arms.

"Meili, it's very late now. I will ask someone to take care of everything, and we will go there to take care of the funeral tomorrow."

Lin Sian would definitely not let her go out at this time, as she might collapse suddenly at any time in such a weak state.

"You take a rest first. I'll ask the kitchen to prepare some food. Then you take a good rest and get enough energy. Tomorrow we will send your mother off for the last time."

After Lin Sian poured her a glass of warm water, she went out and told the kitchen to prepare some light food, and asked Agui to take people to the Hao family to help clean up.

Hao Meili listened to Lin Sian's words. In order to properly arrange the funeral for her mother tomorrow, she ate something and washed up. She looked a lot more energetic.

But the sadness in his eyes was hard to dispel.

"Meili, you should have a good rest. Tomorrow we will go together to take care of your mother's funeral affairs." Lin Sian gave her instructions and prepared to leave.

"Wait, wait a minute!" Hao Meili stopped Lin Sian, "Sian, I want to ask you a favor."

"Can you help me kill Hao Jianhua?" She looked at Lin Sian pleadingly.

Then she started to undress again, "Don't you like my body? I'll give it to you."

"As long as you help me kill Hao Jianhua, I am willing to be your real concubine, have children with you, and serve you well for the rest of my life."

Lin Sian quickly stopped her, "Meili, let's do it one thing at a time. Let's take care of your mother's funeral tomorrow."

"We'll talk about this after your mother leaves with dignity. But don't worry, I will definitely not let you down," he said.

"Okay, alright." Hao Meili listened to Lin Sian's words and no longer insisted. She lay down on the bed and fell into a deep sleep.

The next day, Lin Sian took Hao Meili and others to the Hao family and personally took care of the funeral arrangements for his mother-in-law whom he had never met.

At this time, Agui secretly found Lin Sian, pulled him to a corner and said:

"Master Lin, the coroner I called over last night said that Fifth Concubine's mother is pregnant. This is two deaths for one person!"
