Chapter 149 Ancient Peasants (6) (1/2)

Li Lanlan knew how to make money as soon as she became sensible. As a result, every time she earned money, she was deceived and coaxed into doing good deeds by her biological father. Growing up, she had never received any money from her biological father.

Holding the copper in her hand at this moment, she suddenly understood how to deal with her biological father. \u0026 # 8221;\u0026 # 64;\u0026 # 26356;\u0026 # 22810;\u0026 # 86;\u0026 # 73;\u0026 # 80;\u0026 # 31456;\u0026 # 33410;\u0026 # 65292;\u0026 # 35831;\u0026 # 20851;\u0026 # 27880;“\u0026 # 19968;\u0026 # 36215;\u0026 # 30475;\u0026 [# ]20070;\u0026 # 21543;\u0026 # 109;\u0026 # 46;\u0026 # 100;\u0026 # 117;\u0026 # 48;\u0026 # 48;\u0026 # 46 ;\u0026 # 99;\u0026 # 111;\u0026 # 109;\u0026 # 8221;\u0026 # 10;

It's useless to stop him from doing good things. It's only useful to show his weakness and tell him how miserable her life is.

In the past, Li Lanlan only thought that there was something wrong with her own father. She hated him for his habit of caring about his family and sacrificing himself to help others when he saw others pitiful. Moreover, Li's father also took it for granted. He believed that helping others was a good thing. Since If it is a good deed, relatives should also come together.

The reason why relatives of the Li family do not interact with him is because of this problem of his.

At first, he would lobby his relatives to do good deeds with him. If the relatives were unwilling, he would start borrowing money and use the borrowed money to do good deeds.

Father Li didn't think about not paying back the money. If he was a hateful person, he wasn't that hateful. Judging from his heart, he was indeed full of kindness.

If you borrow money, of course you have to pay it back. Father Li thought very clearly.

But where does he have the money to pay back? Every time the crops in the field are sold, or he earns money by working for others, before he can pay back the money, it is spent on various people who need help.

Over time, the relatives who were borrowed money naturally became unwilling to interact with him.

Even Li Lanlan's maternal family cut off contact with Li's father in this way. In order to avoid Li's father getting involved, they also had no contact with Li Lanlan, their granddaughter.

Li Lanlan doesn't blame her grandparents. She still remembers that when she was a child, her uncle would always come to the village from time to time and give her food. The food was only enough for her to have a full meal. Her uncle would always stand by and look at her. After eating it, I felt relieved and left.

She knew that her mother-in-law couldn't bear the hardship of her granddaughter, and was worried that Li's father would give the food to others if she gave her food directly, so she endured the trouble and specially prepared the food and sent it over to watch her eat it.

You can tell what kind of image Father Li has among his relatives by going to such great lengths to bring food to his granddaughter.

But now, he, who always only took money from outside and never gave money to his own family, gave money to Li Lanlan.

Holding the money in her hands, she felt like crying and laughing at the same time.

Li Lanlan naturally knew that her father gave her money not because she was his daughter, but because she was "poor".

As long as it's "poor", he will give the money to anyone.

But maybe because she had been hurt enough before, after having this realization in her heart, Li Lanlan didn't feel much fluctuation in her heart.

She didn't push the money back, but took it and wiped her tears and said, "Thank you, Dad."

What Father Li likes most is when people say thank you to him, and now his own daughter also expresses the same gratitude. A smile immediately appeared on his face: "Why are you so polite? If you need anything in the future, come back to me."

Li Lanlan used to feel sorry for him. He had been running outside for a day and was as tired as a dead dog when he came back. She did all the hard work by herself silently. This man's heart was full of flesh. Father Li was very fond of her. The fathers in the village were very kind to their daughter, so she naturally wanted to take good care of him.

But it was only after she got married that she discovered that what her biological father wanted was not to be taken care of, but to take care of others.

No matter how he developed such a problem, Li Lanlan, who had always been helpless with him, immediately felt at ease.

She is the son and he is the father. If he lives a good life, it is okay if they do not interact with each other for the rest of his life. If Father Li lives a bad life and asks for help, can she watch him suffer?

I'm afraid I'll feel distressed and embarrassed at the same time.

But now that she has found a way to deal with her biological father, this matter that has been weighing on Li Lanlan's heart like a huge stone should be solved.

After coming out of Li's house, Lin Shiheng didn't wait for Li Lanlan to ask, and said bluntly: "You can just take this money. I won't care whether you keep it or use it."

Li Lanlan looked at him gratefully: "Mr. Sir, thank you."

Lin Shiheng turned sideways, smiled and held his wife's hand, "You and I, why bother saying thank you."

The people in the village were not polite, nor were they like Lin Shiheng, who would pull his newlywed wife to talk sweet words on the road. Li Lanlan's face turned red, and she felt as if there was a heat in her heart.

"Hey! What is Mr. Xiucai doing?"

Just as she was shy, a loud voice suddenly appeared, with a strong emotion of watching the show. Li Lanlan trembled in shock, and tried to pull back with her strong hand.

Lin Shiheng did not let go, but held it tighter, with a very calm expression on his face. He looked up at the village woman walking in their direction, smiled, and wrote lightly: "Take Lan Lan back home." ”

"Hey, look at my memory, today is the day when Lan Lan comes home. Lan Lan, you are lucky, the scholar guild loves others!"

What this village woman actually wanted to say was that Lin Shiheng held Li Lanlan's hand and kissed Mimi during the day, but seeing Lin Shiheng's normal face and not letting go of his hand, she was too embarrassed to say that was not what she was talking about. Simply follow Lin Shiheng's words and continue.

She was just passing by, said a few words casually, and left with her farm tools, leaving only Li Lanlan, who was blushing like a shrimp, feeling the pounding of her heart.

"Ms. sir, let go quickly..."

"Why let go?"

The scholar with a face as white as jade smiled lightly at her and said in a gentle voice: "We are husband and wife. It is normal to be affectionate. There is nothing to be shy about."

Li Lanlan heard what he said. Although she still felt shy, she still obeyed and did not try to withdraw her hand.

The two of them, one delicate and beautiful, the other handsome and elegant, were walking together on the road, holding hands, attracting the attention of many people along the way.

Li Lanlan was shy, but Lin Shiheng had a "this is normal" expression on his face. He held his wife's hand and walked over, calmly greeting the villagers.

"Third uncle, good morning."

"Uncle Qi, have you eaten?"

"Fifth Aunt, me? I took Lan Lan home and am about to go back now."

Even if the Lin family is separated and Lin's father is bedridden, Lin Shiheng, a scholar, is in decline among many families who are looking for a son-in-law. He is still a scholar.

If a noble scholar greets you in such a pleasant manner, of course you should also greet him in a pleasant manner when he comes back.

Everyone in the village was a little flattered to be called. After watching the two people leave, they became excited and walked toward the fields while gossiping.

"Xiucai Lin looks different today than usual."

"Yes, isn't he usually quiet? Today he greeted me when he saw me from a distance and even smiled at me."

"Is it because you have a wife?"

"I'm sure it is. I haven't noticed it before. This girl from the Li family is really good-looking. The two of them look good together."

The men just said a few words and let it go. The main thing was to discuss whether Lin Shiheng's cheerful look when he saw people celebrating happy events was because of Li Lanlan.

Women's concerns are very different.

"Did you see the way Lin Xiucai looked at Li Lanlan? My man has never looked at me like this. He is worthy of being a scholar, he just loves people."

"I really didn't expect it. I said before that Lin Xiucai was not a good matchmaker, but I didn't expect that he still loves his wife. Looking at him like this, he doesn't seem to dislike Li Lanlan at all. Her father is a mentally ill person."

Yes, in the eyes of the villagers, Father Li, who had to let others eat even if he didn't have anything to eat, was a mentally ill person.

Originally, when Lin Shiheng married Li Lanlan, many people said that there would be inevitable friction between the two. Now the Lin family needs people to work. How could Li Lanlan, a newly married girl, do so much work? And the Li family has a father-in-law who is confused. , If you bother the Li family if you have nothing to do, the Lin family will definitely have opinions.

Unexpectedly, these two people got along quite well.

The women didn't care much about Li Lanlan's appearance as a submissive little daughter-in-law. The focus of their attention was still Lin Shiheng.

"I haven't seen Lin Xiucai for a long time. Why do I feel like he has changed a little? He looks just like those officials in the county."

"Have you met Mr. Guan? I think Lin Xiucai has not changed. It's just that he just got married and his thoughts are inevitably focused on his wife. He seems to be a little easier to get along with than before."

"That's true. My man went out to carry firewood in the morning and told me that he saw two people walking this way. It was Lin Xiucai's basket. His wife wanted to carry it but she refused to let him. He said that she was afraid that she would be tired. Before, she told me about the Lin family's work. "Chong, looking at the face of the Li family girl, she doesn't seem to have endured hardship."

The woman who said this had unconcealed regret and envy on her face. Her daughter was in her prime and had fallen in love with Lin Shiheng before. However, she was afraid that the Lin family's situation was complicated now, and her daughter would suffer hardship after marrying him, and then become the king again. Following in the scholar's footsteps, she refused to agree. Now that she saw Li Lanlan living a good life, she felt a little uncomfortable.

But there is nothing we can do about it. Now that Lin Xiucai has married Li Lanlan, there is no point in regretting it. He can only sigh and sigh: "I never expected that Lin Xiucai, who is married, is still considerate. The girl from the Li family blessed."

The women in the village are not all those who like to see other people's jokes. If something good happens, they will be happy. Especially Li Lanlan, because everyone saw what kind of life her father lived before. Now she has a Good husband, they also breathed a sigh of relief for her.

"No, looking at the many families in our village, there are not many people like Lin Xiucai who are both good-looking and talented and love their wives. If you ask me, Lin Xiucai is also a scholar. If he succeeds in the examination in the future, the Li family will The girl’s luck is yet to come.”

A group of people were chatting and laughing, and Zhou Daya came out holding the wash basin.

As soon as she got closer, she heard a group of people admiring Li Lanlan, and mixed in a few words about Lin Xiucai's thoughtfulness, and she immediately stopped in her tracks.

The women who discussed matters about husband and wife were all married. After all, unmarried girls were thin-skinned and would avoid hearing anything from afar. But Zhou Daya was different. She had always been worried about Li Lanlan's marriage to Lin Shiheng. pregnant.

She also knew in her heart that even if Li Lanlan didn't marry Lin Shiheng, her mother would not agree to her marriage, but she was not convinced. Forget it if it were someone else. Li Lanlan, her family is so poor and she has such a father. Why? ? !

Now when he heard the names of these two people, Zhou Daya didn't care about anything else. He leaned over and asked, "What are you talking about? Didn't Li Lanlan live a good life when she married into the Lin family?"

The expectation on her face was so obvious that the married women all glanced at this little girl who had her thoughts on her face, and the women with men of the same age at home shook their heads in their hearts.

No one wants their son to marry a daughter-in-law who has another man in her heart. This week Daya didn't hide her thoughts at all. No matter how much her family pampered her, she might not be able to find her husband's family.

When a woman saw Zhou Daya asking questions, she told how Lin Shiheng was considerate of Li Lanlan and how the two of them held hands in public and looked very affectionate.

Zhou Daya's face immediately turned cloudy.

She loves to be serious, but she is also very vain on weekdays. Some women can't stand her. Seeing that she doesn't like to hear this, they get excited and say, "I heard that Lin Xiucai studies at home every day. Maybe he can really pass the examination." , when the time comes, Li Lanlan will become a lady, wearing gold and silver, and she will be the first in our village. "

Zhou Daya's face suddenly darkened.

"I don't think so."

"You little girl don't understand. As soon as this man gets rich, he wants to make his woman look beautiful. Lin Xiucai is a wife-loving woman at first glance. Li Lanlan's good days are still to come."

Zhou Daya was not happy.

Zhou Daya was very unhappy.

When she thought about Li Lanlan, who could not compare with her except for her appearance, wearing gold and silver, and being cared for by Lin Xiucai, she felt a kind of irritability rising from the bottom of her heart.

If it weren't for Li Lanlan, she would definitely be able to make her mother agree.

Why is she, Li Lanlan, living so well?

"Even if Lin Xiucai is admitted to the Juren Examination, he still has to go to school. If he is really rich, being filial to Aunt Lin is not enough. How can he buy jewelry for Li Lanlan."

Zhou Daya insisted, and then with a bit of pride, she turned sideways, revealing her ears with silver earrings.

"Besides, men in the village don't like to buy jewelry. Many people don't have silver earrings like mine."

She showed off the pair of silver earrings she bought for her family for more than a day or two. Some people would be envious of them at first, but they would get a little annoying after a long time.

Who doesn’t know that it was a dowry brought by Zhou’s mother-in-law herself? It was originally a silver bracelet. Because Zhou Daya had a bad temper, her mother specially fused her own silver bracelet with earrings and made it into a good husband in order to make people think highly of her. The necklace comes out.

She shows off her jewelry every day, so that these women who had no jewelry in the first place did not feel jealous or unhappy, but now they are full of jewelry.

"It's getting late, so I went to the fields first."\u0026 # 8221;\u0026 # 64;\u0026 # 26356;\u0026 # 22810;\u0026 # 86;\u0026 # 73;\u0026 # 80;\u0026 # 31456;\u0026 # 33410;\u0026 # 65292;\u0026 # 35831;\u0026 # 20851;\u0026 # 27880;"\u0026 # 19968 ;\u0026 # 36215;\u0026 # 30475;\u0026 # 20070;\u0026 # 21543;\u0026 # 109;\u0026 # 46;\u0026 # 100;\u0026 # 117;\u0026 # 48;\u0026 # 48;\u0026 # 46;\u0026 # 99;\u0026 # 111;\u0026 # 109;\u0026 # 8221;\u0026 # 10;

"Me too, let's go together."

Zhou Daya became even more unhappy when she saw her silver earrings exposed and everyone left.

Originally, no woman in the village could be as lucky as her.

That Li Lanlan couldn't even compare to one of her fingers.

The next day, Lin Shiheng went to the county.

He copied a lot of books during this period, but the money he earned from copying books was still not enough. After leaving the bookstore, Lin Shiheng walked around the street and then went to the county government office.

The county government has to clear its accounts every year, and the accounts to be cleared have accumulated for a whole year. It requires many people to calculate and clear the accounts for a long time, which is a hard job.

Presumably the clerk in the county government who cleans the accounts doesn't mind spending some money to hire someone to clear the accounts.

Before rushing for the exam, it is better to show some money-making skills and appease the family and relatives.

When we returned, it was already dusk.

The scholar in white had a smile on his lips, holding two wooden boxes for holding jewelry in his slender hands.
