Chapter 412 Rich people have distant relatives in the mountains
New Year's Day.
Fu's mother and her family were going back to Nanshan to pay homage to their ancestors and leave. They left after having breakfast, while Lin Jiaojiao's family also went to visit the graves of Lin's mother and other elders.
Later, Lin Jiaojiao went alone to burn some New Year money for Lin Shen, and talked a lot before leaving.
Lan Jiuhou was outside the bamboo forest, listening to her talking to herself.
It seems that this has become her lifestyle habit.
Every time she came here to be alone for a while, she would talk about her true thoughts, feelings and troubles that he didn't know about, as if she was venting.
So every time she went back, she would feel particularly happy and all her previous fatigue would be gone.
He suddenly felt that it didn't matter what the truth about Lin Shen was.
Lin Jiaojiao walked on the path back, gazing at the white tiles and green walls not far away, as well as the big red lanterns hanging under the eaves, which looked like a beautiful ink painting.
This is her home.
A little community she built herself.
She will live here for the rest of her life.
"Ajiu, time flies."
Lan Jiu walked beside her carrying a basket, and smiled slightly as he listened to her sigh.
"Yes, I still remember the first time I saw the lady..."
"Ah! Stop talking!"
Lin Jiaojiao interrupted loudly and hurriedly, quickening her pace to move forward. If she hadn't been walking, she would have dug a huge palace on the ground.
She felt extremely embarrassed when she thought about how she rolled on the ground and cried so hard just to go out and play.
That picture is simply not too beautiful.
Lan Jiu saw her embarrassment and quickened his pace to catch up.
"Okay, okay, I won't say anything, but the lady was really cute at that time..."
When Lin Jiaojiao heard the voice behind her, she immediately stopped, turned around and pinched his chattering mouth.
"Stop talking!"
She raised her eyebrows and looked at Lan Jiu, whose mouth was pinched into a sausage shape by her fingers. His eyebrows were curved and full of smiles. She caught a glimpse of his skin under his round collar out of the corner of her eyes. Just as she was about to move her eyes down, she saw him nod.
She loosened her hand and moved down to grab his round collar, pulling it down. It was not the type that fit close to the neck, and there was a large gap inside. She looked a little lost.
"Oh, this is too loose. It looks good but it doesn't keep me warm. I should put a scarf inside when I get home."
Lan Jiu raised his hand and held the hand on the round collar, and said softly.
"It's not cold, miss, look, my hands are warm."
The warmth from the back of her hand made her face, which had turned pale due to the cold wind, rosier. The temperature around her gradually rose and the atmosphere became more charming.
She stared at his lips which had turned red from being pinched by her, her throat itchy and sliding up and down, and she couldn't help but murmur.
"Ajiu..."
Just as her head tilted forward slightly, the warmth on the back of her hand disappeared, and a gust of cold wind made her suddenly sober. She also saw the villagers getting closer and closer on the road behind her.
She immediately loosened her collar, put her fist to her lips and coughed.
"Cough, go home, I don't know if Lin Chun has taken care of the sheep."
As she spoke, she turned around and hurried home, cursing herself in her heart for being a female hooligan for wanting to kiss in public.
Would Jiu think she was too aggressive?
Of course Lan Jiu wouldn't. He turned his head and glanced at the blind villagers not far away, with a hint of hostility in his eyes.
It was just a little bit off.
Seeing someone in front of her, Zhou Guifang tried to get closer and ask more about Lin Dadan's family, but the man just looked back and left.
She brought her family to Linjia Village, only to find that Lin Dadan was not at home when she arrived at his house. She was planning to break into the house and wait, but was told by a passing villager that Lin Dadan's family had already moved to a large house with blue bricks and black tiles in the east.
She never expected that the daughter-in-law whom she had always looked down upon would be so successful now.
Thinking of the humiliation she received when she applied for the job last time, she decided to never have any contact with the man again. But now things are different. The man her daughter-in-law is with has become a sixth-rank official, and he has opened shops everywhere.
She just wanted to come and visit people during the New Year to ease the relationship.
For this purpose, she even took the trouble to buy five kilograms of pork. Meat is expensive during the Chinese New Year, and she felt so sorry for it.
"The house in front of my mother-in-law is so beautiful. Does my uncle live in such a nice place? You said you wanted my uncle to bring me three large bags of potato chips. No, I want ten large bags now!"
Seven-year-old Zhou Shuxin thought happily that if she had known that her uncle lived in such a big house, she should have lived with him. She didn't want the whole family to be crowded in that shabby little yard.
Zhou Guifang naturally doted on her granddaughter and agreed without even thinking.
Zhou Meng looked at the house in front of her with greed and jealousy on her face. It was all Lin Dadan's fault. If she hadn't stopped her from staying to work, causing her to accomplish nothing now, she would have lived in a house like this a long time ago.
Zhou Shuxin is her daughter who was born when she was in her thirties. Her three sons who lost money before her were all married off by her.
She lowered her head and said, "Yes, your uncle's family is rich now. Remember to ask your aunt for a New Year's red envelope when the time comes."
"I know mother."
Huang Dong walked behind them carrying a basket, and listened to their words with an embarrassed and worried look on his face. Although he did not agree with Zhou Xiaofeng marrying Lin Dadan at first, she was a piece of his flesh and blood after all, so naturally he hoped that his child would live a better life.
Zhou Guifang and her group followed the two people in front from a distance until they saw them enter the largest house, then they hurriedly quickened their pace and came to the gate to watch.
"These two people are actually from Lord Lin's family. I should have walked faster if I had known."
Zhou Guifang felt very regretful. She wished she could establish a relationship with the Lin family so that she wouldn't have to care about the faces of Lin Dada and the others.
"Mom, is that Sister Lin Chun?"
Zhou Meng looked in the direction Zhou Shuxin pointed, and saw a sturdy woman pushing a cart on the road in the direction of the farm. Judging from her figure and physique, who else could it be but Lin Chun?
Zhou Guifang was already walking quickly towards Lin Chun, and the other three immediately followed.
"Sister Chun."
Lin Chun looked at the four people who were getting closer and closer. She was stunned at first, and then frowned slightly.
This was the first time she saw her grandmother and others come to Linjia Village.
"Grandma, Grandpa, Aunt, Xinxin."
Zhou Guifang responded with a smile. She also saw what was in the cart that Lin Chun was pushing, a cart full of meat.
There was a whole processed lamb, as well as similarly processed chickens, ducks and rabbits.
Zhou Meng saw that everything had been marinated, so he bent down curiously to get close to the mutton and smell the spices on it, then looked up with a smile.
"Xiaochun, how did you know that your aunt loves to eat mutton? Why did you prepare so much meat to entertain your aunt?"
"Sister Lin Chun, I want to eat meat too!"
When Lin Chun saw Tongfu waving at her at the gate of the Lin Mansion, she hurriedly pushed the car forward.
"No, the meat belongs to the boss."
But she also reminded them not to wander around and that she would come back to find them after delivering the things.
Tongfu ran down the stairs when he saw Lin Chun pushing the cart to the door.
"Sister Lin Chun, you are finally here. The charcoal fire is ready and we are just waiting for your meat."
Lin Chun removed the things that were fixing the car plate, and together with Lan, they carried all the meat in the car. After putting the things in the designated position, they asked.
"Tongfu, are my mother and father here?"
Tongfu nodded and said, "Here they are. Manager Lin is in the main room, and Uncle Zhou is in the kitchen helping to make roasted pepper sauce."
She thought for a moment and decided to go find her father first. Before she even walked into the kitchen, she sneezed several times because of the pungent smell.
Tongfu had been helping in the kitchen before and was already accustomed to the smell.
"Sister Lin Chun, can I go in and call Uncle Zhou for you?"
"Thank you for your help, Tongfu."
"It's not a big deal."
Lin Chun stopped and watched Tongfu walk into the kitchen. After a while, Zhou Xiaofeng, wearing an apron around his waist, came out.
"What happened to Chun'er? Is there something wrong on the farm?"
When Zhou Xiaofeng got closer, a strong pungent smell hit her in the face and she sneezed several times.
Zhou Xiaofeng raised his arm and smelled the smell on his body, but unfortunately he could not smell anything. He had just stir-fried a pot of chili peppers, which choked him. Now his mouth and nose were filled with this smell.
"Dad and grandma are here, they're outside."
He immediately lowered his arms and his face instantly darkened.
No one asks the poor in the downtown area, and the rich has distant relatives in the mountains.
