"Lin Lan..." Yang Liying wailed and covered her face.

Lin Lan patted her shoulder lightly, and comforted her softly: "Cry! It's good to cry out."

After crying so much, Yang Liying felt that her heart was not so heavy, she took out a handkerchief and wiped her face embarrassedly: "Thank you Lin Lan, I am much better."

"Yeah!" Lin Lan said warmly, "Take good care of your body. When you are well, go to my place to have a look. I bought a lot of nice clothes. Xiang Yang also bought a watch, imported goods! Go and see which one you like. Brand? Pick one carefully.”

Yang Liying nodded again and again: "I see."

Lin Lan came home from Yang Liying's house, Wu Shufen went back to the room and took out 1000 yuan: "Xiaolan, you left and your elder brother sent you some mountain goods. This is the money for buying a house. Your father said to give you some back first. The rest will be returned to you after the New Year."

Lin Lan looked at her: "Mom, didn't Dad say he wanted to expand the pig farm? Why did you think of paying me back?"

Wu Shufen stuffed the money into her hand, and said with a reproachful smile, "Your father and the others go to the river to pick stones to build a pig farm, and it won't cost much."

Lin Lan nodded: "If it's not enough, come and get it from me!"

The mother and daughter came out of the room, took out the red beans and large white beans in the steamer, and began to pound red bean paste and peel the bean skin.

Wu Shufen remembered the electric iron she brought into the house, and asked, "Xiaolan, is that an iron in your bag?"

Lin Lan nodded: "It's an electric iron. If you don't tell me, I forgot. Tomorrow, I have to ask Carpenter Li to make two ironing racks."

Irons these days are not steam-type hanging irons. When ironing clothes, you have to brush some water on the clothes. When ironing woolen, woolen, and woolen materials, you have to use a wet towel to spread the iron on the clothes. .

Otherwise, it is easy to burn the clothes, not to mention, those who can't iron will get burnt marks.

Wu Shufen thought of Lin Lan's renovation of several facades, and looked at her worriedly: "I don't worry about anything else, I'm just worried that the policy has changed again..."

"Mom," Lin Lan held Wu Shufen's hand, "Don't worry, I asked Dongzi to find out. If each shop employs two people, there will be no problems."

Wu Shufen shook her head: "Why don't you worry, you forgot Xu Landlord on your aunt's team, why is it gone?"

Lin Lan really didn't remember it, she smiled and shook her head: "I forgot."

"If you forget, forget it!" Wu Shufen thought about it and urged: "Anyway, remember, be careful, don't make the stall too big and make people jealous."

Lin Lan nodded: "I will pay attention."

Before the mother and daughter had finished pounding the soybean paste, Lin Yuezhen returned home with two baskets, and the three of them got busy together.

Wangcai in the yard cried "Wow, woof".

"Who's here?" Lin Lan walked to the door of the kitchen and saw a middle-aged man with a thong on his back and a mouse-like face standing at the door, "Who are you looking for?"

The man poked his head, looked at the yard with his eyes rolling around, and said with a smile: "Sister, I collect live chickens, do you have any chickens for sale?"

Lin Lan looked at him indifferently: "No." She felt that this person was not a good guy, and remembered what Lin Guoliang said about the chicken thief last time, and she became vigilant.

The man looked at Wangcai who was baring his teeth and barking at him non-stop, and said with a sneer, "Your dog is really well-raised."

Lin Lan didn't scold Wangcai either, and said coldly, "Go away! My family doesn't have any chickens to sell."

"Forget it if you don't have one." The man shrank his head and backed out.

Wu Shufen walked out and looked at Lin Lan: "The chickens here are more expensive than those in the countryside, why would anyone collect chickens here?"

Lin Lan also felt that something was wrong: "It may be a chicken thief who came to step on it."

Wu Shufen felt the same, Lin Lan closed the courtyard door, went back to the kitchen and continued to make pumpkin cakes.

The pumpkin cakes were ready and put into bamboo baskets. Lin Lan checked the time and said to Wu Shufen, "Mom, I'll go pick up Xiaodouzi."

Wu Shufen smiled and said, "Are you really going to pick him up?"

"I'm an adult and I have to keep my word, otherwise he won't trust us in the future." Lin Lan put on her gloves with a smile and wrapped the scarf around her, "I'm leaving!"

Lin Lan rode her bicycle to the school gate, the bell rang for the end of get out of class, and the children poured out of the school gate like a flock of sheep.

Xiaodouzi ran out with a small schoolbag on his back, saw Lin Lan standing there leaning on his bicycle, looking at him with a smile, and ran over waving his hands: "Mom, you really came to pick me up!"

"Be happy!" Lin Lan reached out and took out a scarf from his bag to wrap around him, and patted the back seat with a smile, "Sit in the back, it's windy in front."

Xiaodouzi nodded: "I will climb up by myself." He climbed up by stepping on the rear seat bar.

Seeing that he had sat down, Lin Lan said, "Did you tell Brother Kai that your mother is coming to pick you up?"

"I told you, Brother Kai is on duty today, and he still has to clean the classroom!"

"Okay, let's go." Lin Lan stepped into the car, pedaled the bicycle and walked forward.

Xiaodouzi hugged her waist, leaned his head on her back, and hummed happily: "Xiaoerlang, carry your schoolbag and go to school..."

Listening to his cheerful singing, Lin Lan also smiled happily: "Mom is here to pick you up, so happy!"

"Hmm!" Xiaodouzi held Lin Lan's braid, "Mom, you're gone, I miss you every day, and I miss Uncle Xiangyang."

Lin Lan said sweetly in her heart: "Mom misses you too, so I rushed back immediately after I bought the goods."

Xiaodouzi smiled and narrowed his eyes: "I went to Eucalyptus Grove to help sell pastries on Sunday, and taught my aunt to settle accounts."

Lin Lan said happily: "Hey! My son is really capable!"

Xiaodouzi pursed his lips and laughed, and suddenly remembered something, frowned and said, "Mom, Brother Dandan came to see me, saying that his mother came to sue Uncle Yao, and that the grandmother was crying secretly, saying that he didn't like it." his mom."

"Mom, why does Brother Dandan's mother want to sue Uncle Yao? Why doesn't Brother Dandan like his mother?"

Lin Lan didn't know how to explain it to him, so she shook her head and said, "Mom doesn't know either. When you grow up, you will understand when you learn more."

Xiaodouzi nodded: "Yeah! Let's visit Uncle Yao's house on Sunday, shall we?"

"Okay, mom will take you to see your grandma on Sunday."

The mother and son crossed the stone bridge and arrived at Jigeng Road. They saw a group of people gathered in front of a courtyard in front of them, and heart-piercing cries came from the courtyard.

The onlookers blocked the way, Lin Lan squeezed the brakes, stepped on the ground and got out of the car, pushed the car over, saw Li Guizhi was also watching the fun inside, and pulled her sleeve: "Sister Li, what are you doing?" gone."

"Ah!" Li Guizhi sighed, "The little grandson of the Su family was taken away, and he was said to be playing at the door, but he disappeared in a blink of an eye. I searched everywhere but couldn't find it. went out to find it."

The man who collected the chickens flashed in Lin Lan's mind: "Have they reported to the police station? Did a man who looked like a hozen ask your family to buy chickens this afternoon?"

Li Guizhi shook his head: "No!"
