Farmer's Favorite

The dress of the matchmaker is very unique.

When Matchmaker Wang entered the gate of Lin's house, sharp-eyed people saw her.

Now, there is only one unmarried girl left in the Lin family, so the matchmaker came to the door to say goodbye to this girl.

It's just that people in the village don't know the old man Lin's confusion, and they are not happy when the matchmaker comes to the door, so they inform Mrs. Lin and Li in the blink of an eye.

That's how it was, as soon as old man Lin saw off Matchmaker Wang, he welcomed Mrs. Lin and his two sons.

There was a blank look on the face at first, and then he shouted boldly: "What are you doing here, don't you think you don't have this home, get out of here quickly."

After being together for so many years, the old man Lin raised an eyebrow, and Mrs. Lin and Li knew what it meant.

With such a guilty look, she still doesn't understand.

Immediately he said angrily: "Lin Chang, you bastard, don't think I don't know what you're up to, Lin Lin is your daughter, yes, but she's also my daughter, the words of the matchmaker, you are a father I promised, but I, a mother, would not agree."

"What are you messing around with? What is my plan?" Old man Lin was stern, and he didn't even dare to look straight at the people who were arguing at the door.

Maybe it was a few months apart, Lin Li was not afraid of old man Lin at this time, and she didn't bother to continue talking to him, so she just pushed old man Lin away and walked into the house.

The earth tile house that has lived in for decades, but only left for a few months, has been ruined.

Looking at Lin Lin who was touching tears in the hall, Mrs. Lin Li couldn't help feeling angry. Why didn't she feel pain for her only little daughter, but this little daughter was as stubborn as her father. You can live a good life with her, but live a foolish life with her father.

She stepped forward, grabbed Lin Lin's arm and asked, "Tell me, what kind of good family did your father find for you, and made you cry like this?"

From the beginning, Lin Lin wept silently, and now when she saw her mother and eldest brother and second brother coming, she immediately raised her head and cried out her throat, without stopping, intermittently talking about the two people the matchmaker said Everything about the family was told.

"100 taels of betrothal money." Lin Li panted heavily, his eyes widened, and he growled at old man Lin: "You sold Lin Dong for ten taels of silver, and now you plan to sell him for a hundred taels of betrothal money. Lin Lin can't do it?"

"This... where is this for sale? That is a wealthy family. Lin Lin will not have to worry about marrying her for the rest of her life. She eats delicacies and wears silk and satin. Even if she is always served by maids, she will be a rich wife in the future!" Old man Lin Talking with his neck stuck.

Lin Li's heart was restless, and when he saw the old man Lin opposite him, he would always think of the gunpowder buried in the ground, as if being choked by someone choking his neck.

Regardless of what other people said, Lin Li looked straight at Lin Lin and said to her: "This is a major event in your life. If you really want to marry that family, you may be able to live a rich life, but you will definitely not feel comfortable. , without children, when you get old, you will be alone, a man is older than you, if he dies first, there may be a nunnery waiting for you."

When Lin Lin heard this, her body trembled.

Her head drooped, and the expression on her face was a bit unclear.

"What are you talking about? That family wants to save face, so why would they send Lin Lin to a nunnery." Old man Lin's voice trembled and his tone was blunt, because even he didn't quite believe what he said.

After all, who would be sure about what happened after that.

Among other things, Lin Xiaoshuang in their village is just like this.

Although he was young, if he could give birth to a son and a daughter for the rich man, how could he be driven back.

If the family that Matchmaker Wang mentioned was cruel.

It is not impossible to send them to a nunnery.

Old man Lin had an open heart on his face, and his words were also very empty, so he simply went out and sat on the threshold, not wanting to waste his time talking.

Lin Li looked at it and immediately relieved her anger. She took Lin Lin's hand and said, "Just tell me, as long as you don't want to marry, I will decide this matter, and I will definitely not let you jump into this pit of fire."

After finishing speaking, Mrs. Lin Li patted Lin Lin's hand again, and said to herself: "Look at what mother said, you will definitely not agree, so I'll ask someone to write back to the matchmaker and ask her to withdraw the offer." A family affair."

"I should."

Three words are an understatement.

But it seemed to explode in the main room.

Lin Li's hands froze, she didn't seem to understand, and the smile on her face was even a little stiff.

"Yes? What should you do? You still don't understand what Mother said, and you still want to jump into the fire by yourself?" Lin Li said, his tone extremely displeased.

Lin Lin's words were full of tears, and she said weakly: "You don't care about father, so why don't I care?"

Obviously complaining.

Lin Li's anger exploded immediately, and he said angrily, "I don't care about my father? What do you want me to do? Just let him drag our family to worship Lin Ping's family? Are they without hands or feet or do we owe them? Is my life going to fail?"

At this moment, Lin Li was furious.

In Xishan Village, if you pull out a random person, even a child, you will say that Lin Li is a filial person. Although he does not live with his foolish father, he will still give him enough food every month. money.

If he really didn't care, he would be happy to throw the money into the water.

He pointed at Lin Lin angrily, and shouted: "You still want me to care, your father actually buried the gunpowder in the place where I work for outsiders, but if there is an emergency, the person who died is not Lin Ping, but Lin Ping. Me. Why don't you ask him why he is so cruel? "

After the voice fell, the person sitting by the threshold remained motionless, without a word of rebuttal.

Lin Li laughed at himself, flung his sleeves and left straight away.

Lin Li didn't follow along, but Ben held Lin Lin's hand and let go of it before he knew it.

She can clearly see the temper of her old man.

How could she not understand this daughter who came out of her stomach.

She sighed slightly, and said: "Don't say these words so nicely, there are some things you understand, and I understand, you insist on accepting this marriage, and you know why."

After finishing speaking, ignoring Lin Lin's pale face, Lin Li stood up unsteadily.

Lin Qi, who had never spoken, stepped forward to support her, but before he left, he said: "As long as you want to go back on your word before you get married, just come to me."

After saying that, the two mother and son left the earth tile house.

Along the way, Lin Li was a little dull, one of her own old man and one of her own daughter, how could she feel comfortable with this mess.

But at the same time, she also knew.

The positions that Old Man Lin and Lin Lin were standing at were different from what she had experienced at this time.

If it was still the same poor family as before, and such a rich person came to propose marriage, for Lin Lin's better life in the future, she would agree.

Because, at that time, they were really poor and afraid.

But now it's different.

Although he is not very rich, at least he has enough food and clothing, and he does not need his own children to suffer that crime outside.

However, no matter how much she thought about it, it was Lin Lin who was willing to marry.

She sighed softly, and slowly said:

"Actually, I saw your father's temperament long before I got married, but I didn't take it to heart at that time. I thought he was a filial man. His character must be good. After all, I was blind. If Nian turns his temper back, it won't harm your children."

"However, it's useless to talk too much. As long as you live well now, let him live alone for that stupid thing, as long as he doesn't starve to death." Lin Li patted the back of Lin Qi's hand, and refused to let him go. He continued to send.

Lin Qi looked at the back of his mother leaving.

There are some inexplicable emotions in my heart.

Still thinking about when this blocked emotion came about, the drooping hand fell into a warm palm.

Without looking sideways, Lin Qi was able to know who was coming.

The blocked emotion is gone, he hooked the corner of his mouth, "Aren't you at home? Why did you come out?"

Zhuang Xinyan bent over, put his forehead on Lin Qi's shoulder, and said in a muffled voice: "That guy Lin Baocheng encouraged Huwazi to come and call, saying that he had something important to do. If others come to invite me, can I go? Huwazi will come to invite me. I have to give some face, right?"

Lin Qi stretched out his free hand and touched Zhuang Xinyan's head, and the smile on his face became even bigger.

Huwazi loves to cry, and sheds tears whenever something goes wrong. The man's face is cold, but his heart is warm in a mess.

In the village, if children were asked who their favorite adult was, maybe not all of them would say Brother Zhuang or Uncle Zhuang.

Lin Qi asked: "Didn't you stuff caramel for him? The third brother said that the little baby has a good mouth, and if he eats it, his teeth will be broken."

Zhuang Xinyan didn't say anything, but just raised his head, and instantly attached the little husband's lips, stretched out the tip of his tongue to pry his lips open, and fed a small piece of caramel in his mouth.

Lin Qi was stunned for a moment, and when he realized it, his mouth was full of sweetness.

His face was blushing, and he stared directly at him, only to find that the man was already a few steps away, looking back and smiling at him.

Lin Qi bared his teeth, "Stop for me."

Zhuang Xinyan ran away when he heard the words, but his speed was not fast, and his little husband kept chasing after him.

Until they reached Village Chief Lin's house.

Only then did he stop, and first he stretched out his hand to bring the little husband into his arms. He whispered something in the little husband's ear, which made Lin Qi's ears turn red. After all, he didn't continue to trouble him.

"Brother, you are here, come in quickly."

When Lin Baocheng heard the movement, he couldn't help waving his hands. Looking at the two people entering the room, he scratched his head, but he always felt that something was missing.

He went straight into the house, and when he saw Lin Dong, he suddenly realized, and turned around and asked, "Where's my little tiger, why didn't you come back?"

"I don't want to leave if I stay at home. You go over and bring him back later." Zhuang Xinyan put his hands on his chest. He wanted to hug him just now, but just as he stretched out his hand, the black monkey looked like it was about to cry. Let him really can't do it.

"Hey, my son has been thinking about going to your house for a long time, just let him play more." Lin Baocheng smiled foolishly, thinking in his heart, it would be good to put more Huwazi at the second brother's house, just as he and Lin Dong can have a warm relationship. warm.

Zhuang Xinyan rolled his eyes at this man, and asked, "Why do you want us to come?"

"This boy, it's not serious for a child to run away." Village head Lin also gave the child a look, and said: "This time I let you come here for the Zhou family's business."

Upon hearing this, Lin Qi first turned his attention to the third brother.

At this moment, the third younger brother didn't have the same alienation towards the Zhou family as before, nor did he have the kind of enthusiasm towards relatives and friends, but just looking at it, I think the third younger brother still has some changes in his attitude towards the Zhou family.

"Yes, it's just for the Zhou family's affairs." Lin Baocheng interjected, "The people of the Zhou family have come to the door no less than ten times since they came to recognize their relatives. Every time they come, they come with big bags and small bags. Quite a lot, how dare we take it, it’s just that they forced us to shirk it, and we can only bring them something of similar value as a gift in return. It’s only been a few days, and my family is almost empty gone."

It's really telling grievances.

As Lin Dong listened, he secretly stepped on Lin Baocheng's foot.

Lin Baocheng wailed, and his aggrieved expression became even more aggravated.

Village head Lin also coughed lightly.

However, what the child said was indeed true.

The Zhou family can be regarded as everyone in the town, so how can the things they send be cheap.

They don't want to take advantage of this, so the gifts they return naturally have to be more expensive. Although the children are not at a loss, it's just that the cash has been exchanged for things, so it is inevitable that they will not be able to move their hands and feet.

"What the Zhou family sent is nothing more than cloth and grain. If you want to sell it to me, at least the price will not be lower than outside." Zhuang Xin extended his hand to pick up the peanuts on the table, peeled the shells and took two The bulging peanuts were stuffed into Lin Qi's hands.

Lin Baocheng was overjoyed, but hesitant: "Brother, this is a lot, what do you want so much for?"

"The Mid-Autumn Festival is also the time for giving gifts. Not to mention in the past, but now that the shops are more open, it is inevitable that some places will give gifts."

Zhuang Xinyan also understands human nature.

"That's just right, brother, don't worry, the price is definitely not high." Lin Baocheng rubbed his hands happily, and before he even laughed, he was pulled on the head by Village Chief Lin with a pipe.

Village head Lin bluffed: "Did you call Xiaozhuang here to tell you these things?"

"Ah, I was just about to say it." Lin Baocheng gritted his teeth in pain, and said, "The people from the Zhou family came just now and said that the reason why their grain and oil shop overwhelms other shops is because they have clear oil. Fang Zi, if I want it, I can give it to me directly, and there is no need for a penny."

The expression on Lin Baocheng's face became extremely serious at this time, and he continued: "We don't want his prescription, but we just think that the Zhou family's generosity is for Lin Dong's sake, isn't it? It means that Lin Dong's life experience is really as the Zhou family said?"

Among other things, a good prescription is worth a lot of money.

Just like the recipes for making paper and salted eggs in Zhuang Xinyan's hands, they can make him a lifetime of profits.

Although the recipe for clear oil is not as precious as these two, it is extremely valuable for grain and oil shops.

Sending such a valuable prescription to your door for nothing, if you don't treat it sincerely, then... there is another purpose.

Zhuang Xinyan continued to peel the peanuts in his hand, and he casually said: "They want to give it, just take it, let's not mention whether the identity of the third brother is what they said, but the fault of the second wife of the Zhou family is what is said It can't make up for it, the first room and the second room belong to Zhou's family, so this prescription can be used as temporary compensation."

As he said, Zhou Yingshi, the second wife of the Zhou family, had selfish motives back then.

Although they don't know why Zhou's family members get along so well with each other, they can't cover up what Zhou Yingshi did to Lin Dong.

However, Zhuang Xinyan felt that this matter was really getting more and more interesting.

In the beginning, the news about the third brother's identity came from the Bafang Pavilion too quickly.

What happened more than ten years ago was completely found out in a few days, as if someone deliberately arranged it for them to investigate.

Afterwards, the Zhou family came to the door, and he asked Bafang Pavilion to investigate, but the things he investigated were so confusing that it was not convincing at all.

However, when the truth of this mysterious case is slowly revealed, it will be even more exciting.

Zhuang Xinyan waited long for the moment when the truth came.
