The heroine in a period novel became a group favorite after being read her mind

Chapter 25 Heavy Rain and House Collapse

"Why did the leadership team come to investigate?" Lin Yuanxi asked, looking at the children: "Could it be that they are here to fine us? Our family has paid all the money for the birth of a child."

The family I met almost stopped eating, but in order not to hide and have a baby secretly, they still gritted their teeth and gave the money.

"No, I heard people are here to check the development and household census. There are also bosses from the city who come to hang out. There are quite a lot of people."

Lin Yuannan, who was well-informed, tapped his rice bowl with chopsticks. He glanced outside the door and whispered, "I heard that those big bosses are here to do business."

"What business?" Lin Yuanxi couldn't help but lower his voice, and the others also listened.

"It seems like someone here is selling something, and the big boss took a fancy to it, so he came here to buy it and walk around, but I don't know if it's true or not."

Lin Yuannan spread his hands, then lowered his head to eat.

This dish has no taste. Add some salt and oil and fry it. If there are other seasonings, add a little seasoning. If not, just serve it dry. The rice is brown rice, but it is beaten a little finer so that it doesn't choke the throat.

【big boss? 】

[Is he the boss who comes with the leadership team? 】

[Isn’t that the person who wants to protect the old Liu family? No, we can’t let him think about the old Liu family. Otherwise, not many people will dare to take care of what the old Liu family does in the future. 】

[We have to find a way to prevent him from being biased. 】

Lin Xiangrong rolled her eyes in Zhou Zhaodi's arms, thinking about destroying Liu Meng's chance to save the jewelry merchant's life by accident.

The others paused with their chopsticks and continued to say something. Today, Wang Cuilan held their ears and warned them for a long time. A group of adults would not reveal their secrets in front of a child.

"The harvest is not good, as you all know, we have to find a way to get through this winter. Next year, the richest man and the second richest man will have to go to school. We can't let the children miss school." Wang Cuilan nagged and picked up an egg for Zhou Zhaodi.

Now the good Sun Ke has to be nursed by Zhou Zhaodi, so good things cannot be left out of her.

"What kind of work can we do in winter?" Zhang Miao put down his chopsticks and said, "If you ask me, let my brother-in-law and sister-in-law find a way to arrange jobs for a few brothers in the town."

My brother-in-law and sister-in-law both work in the town, earning dozens of dollars a month, and live in a big house. They don't have to work in the fields every day. In winter, I worry about not being able to eat and going hungry. Life is comfortable these days.

If only her men could go to work in the town and gain a foothold in a few years, that would be fine in the future!

Fang Hongying, who had just given some private money to her parents' family, said nothing, but she was a little moved. She couldn't help but look up at Wang Cuilan, only to see Wang Cuilan staring at Zhang Miao with a mean look on her face.

At the moment, he felt a little gloating about his misfortune, and pricked up his ears to hear how Zhang Miao was scolded.

"You can't shut your mouth even after dinner, how about a good job arrangement?" Wang Cuilan rolled her eyes and almost poked Zhang Miao in the forehead with her finger: "Xiaosi's job is not stable yet, and Lili's job is not stable either. Come down, if anyone dares to trick them with crooked ideas, don’t blame me for falling out!"

"Humph."

Zhang Miao was scolded so much that she only dared to hum.

"How are you going to spend this winter?"

After Lin Dawei finished eating, he stared outside the door. It seemed to be raining lightly outside.

It rains a little before it snows, which shows how cold the winter can be.

The colder the winter, the harder it will be for the people, especially those who eat from the soil. If the harvest is not good, they will probably go hungry this winter.

And how can a family with so many people endure it?

[In winter, you can go to the mountains to catch hares and sell them. A rabbit can be sold for a lot of money. Otherwise, you can hunt game. The control is not very strict now, so you can take advantage of the opportunity to sell it. 】

As for shopping for goods, that requires eyesight. The plot has not been unlocked until later, so Lin Xiangrong cannot see the details. Even if she knows there is something, she may not recognize it when it is placed in front of her.

Even if you recognize it and buy it by luck, how to sell it to someone who knows how to sell it and how much it will cost is still a problem.

In this way, he not only wants to take away the jewelry merchant's opportunity from Liu Meng, but even steals it to himself.Lin Xiangrong thought about it carefully and didn't know what to do for the time being.

However, I have thought about how winter will pass.

Hare and game?
At this time, the control was indeed not very strict, and even hunting and tiger hunting still existed, but hunting was not as frequent as before.

But looking at it now, it will indeed make life more relaxed in the future and not so tight.

They pricked up their ears and continued to listen, but did not hear Lin Xiangrong's voice. While they were a little disappointed, those words gave them a way out.

Only Lin Yuannan quickly followed Lin Xiangrong's words and thought of the big boss.

Toward the big boss of Liu Lao'er's family?

Was it because something happened that he came towards them? Could they have intercepted him before this happened?

If you can, life will be easier in the future. If your daughter has to go to school or the secret is exposed, you won't have no way out.

He rolled his eyes and looked at Lin Dawei, who also heard the voice. The two decided to talk about this matter in private.

Sure enough, it rained heavily during the night.

The heavy raindrops made a crackling sound on the roof, but the whole family didn't pay attention. After all, it had rained a lot in the past.

Only Lin Xiangrong opened his eyes and stared at the text that appeared in front of him with a small look of horror.

[Ah ah ah, help, the house is going to collapse! 】

[The mud house is going to collapse!Dad, Mom and Third Brother, get up quickly! 】

【Someone is going to die! 】

[The west wing is about to collapse! 】

The mud houses in the countryside were already a little unstable, and as time went by they gradually came close to breaking down. It seemed that something had happened to this house before. The roof was a little shaky, and when the wind blew, the walls seemed to be shaking.

The beams also looked a little unstable.

Lin Xiangrong, who had already seen the prompt, was so anxious that he almost spoke.

【Help! ! !The house is going to die soon! 】

Lin Xiangrong was so anxious that he was sweating on his forehead when there was a knock on the door.

"The third child! Lin Yuannan! The third child's wife! Stop sleeping, something happened to the house!"

When Wang Cuilan got up at night, she heard the scream of her precious granddaughter hidden in the pouring rain. She pricked up her ears and immediately couldn't sit still. She hurried to the west wing while picking up her pants.

When he saw that the top layer of the roof had been lifted up, he immediately panicked and started banging on the door, directly waking up Zhou Zhaodi and Lin Yuannan.

"What?" Zhou Zhaodi lit the oil lamp and looked up. There was a hole in the roof, and the wood on it was rotten. Raindrops continued to fall, and the quilt on the side was already wet.

[Mom and Dad, you are finally awake. 】

Lin Xiangrong breathed a sigh of relief. It would be good if he woke up. Otherwise, if the wood or beams above fell, the whole family would be in trouble and they would not be able to sleep at night.

The two of them got up quickly, carried the third rich man to Wang Cuilan's room, and wrapped Lin Xiangrong tightly and sent him away. Wang Cuilan had quickly packed away the things on the bed.

Several people looked at the roof with rotten wood and worried.
