The splendid youth of the farm gate

Chapter 10 Accidental Discovery
"Xiao Tao!" Throwing the vegetable cutting knife in her hand, Mrs. Lin sat next to Lin Xiaotao, and said softly, "What are you doing? You are still young, and Baozhong is not very old. See more doctors. There will always be children after taking a few patches of medicine."

Lin Xiaotao tilted her head in Lin's arms, tears streaming down like broken beads, "Sister, why can't I have a baby, you and the second sister can give me one each! Why, I don't have any!"

Lin's heart felt sore when she heard that, she has one son and two daughters, and her second sister Qiaoqiao has two sons and one daughter, just like what Xiaotao said, it would be nice if they both gave one to Xiaotao!
"Don't worry, there will always be children. Your mother-in-law is just a bit more talkative, and she is not a bad person. Besides, there is Bao Zhong protecting you. You should be nice and let your mother-in-law be more. When you have children Enough."

Lin Xiaotao nodded, wiped away the tears from her face, raised her head and asked Lin: "Sister, why did you bring green fruits here, but is there something wrong at home?"

After hearing what the third daughter said, Mrs. Zhong also raised her head to look at Mrs. Lin, and said, "That's right, didn't the elder son-in-law say that he couldn't move because of his back injury? Is it appropriate for you to throw him out of the house?"

It's fine if Zhong doesn't say anything, but as soon as she mentioned Luo Xingzu, Lin felt that she couldn't hold back the tears in her eyes.They were still worried afterwards, and invited Dr. Qi to see it. Dr. Qi said that Luo Xingzu's waist had been missing for a year or so, and he was afraid it would never get better!

"Sister, is that family bullying you again?"

Lin shook her head, resisted the soreness in her nasal cavity, and said softly, "No, I'm just..."

For a while, he couldn't find a good excuse.

Mrs. Zhong sighed, and said softly: "Is your mother-in-law looking after your daughter-in-law for your uncle?"

Lin looked up at Zhong in astonishment.

"mother……"

Mrs. Zhong shook her head, and said softly: "The matchmaker hired by your mother-in-law has been visiting our village for the past two days, but the big guy was frightened when he heard that the girl's family offered a bride price of ten taels of silver."

A wry smile appeared on Lin's face.

Lin Xiaotao frowned, looked at Lin with a suspicious expression and asked, "Sister, your uncle wants to marry the young daughter of Mr. Zhang's family?"

Lin nodded.

Lin Xiaotao opened her mouth so wide that she could spit out an egg, and then asked again, "Did your mother-in-law plan to ask you to give this dowry?"

Lin Shi shook his head, Zhong Shi and Lin Xiaotao breathed a sigh of relief, but after listening to Lin Shi's next words, they couldn't say a word for a while.

"We were not asked to come out, but our family was asked to prepay their five-year pension funds in advance."

a long time!

"When the family was separated, it was agreed that one tael of silver would be the pension fund for five years. Isn't that five taels?" Zhong asked with a trembling voice.

Lin nodded helplessly.

"You goddamn old woman!" Lin Xiaotao gritted her teeth and said angrily, "Brother-in-law hurt her back just to help them, and the harvest is not good this year, where are you going to get the five taels of silver?"

Lin was silent, her eyes turned red in an instant.

Zhong sighed, and wanted to enlighten her eldest daughter a few words, but she didn't know how to enlighten her.

Whoever gave birth to her loves her dearly, so what if she loves her married daughter no matter how distressed she is?Three daughters, the eldest daughter-in-law is simple and honest, but the parents at home are hard to say, the second daughter and son-in-law are capable but irritable, let alone the third daughter!Zhong only felt that there was a stone in her heart that made her breathless.

Qingguo didn't know where the small river in Shizhen Village originated.But I heard from an old scholar in the village that this small river will flow into the Li River in Xingcheng County after passing through several villages.

Xingcheng County!Holding her small chin, Qingguo let out a long sigh as she watched the river rushing eastward. Even though her aunt Luo Xiangju married to Xingcheng County, she had never been there once.Hey, it would be nice to have a look sometime!
"Guoer, this is for you to play with." Uncle Lin Zhengda handed Qingguo a straw grasshopper that he had just woven.

The emerald green green grasshopper, which was almost a real grasshopper, was thrown by Lin Zhengda in front of Qingguo with a string of long grass.

"So lovely."

Qing Guo could only feel a bright light in front of her eyes, the grasshopper made up by her uncle was much more realistic than the one she bought for ten yuan on the street in her previous life.

and many more!

A thought quickly flashed across Qingguo's mind, and as the thought flashed, her heart also jumped sharply with a "plop, plop".

"Uncle, what else can you make up?" Qing Guo asked while clutching the grasshopper.

Before Lin Zhengda could speak, his brother-in-law Lin Fangda had already said.

"Your uncle knows a lot." Lin Fangda and You Rongyan wrung their fingers and said, "There are so many butterflies, birds, chickens, ducks, dragons and horses, and so many sheep!"

The more Qing Guo listened to the more smiles on his face, he blurted out and shouted: "I want it, big uncle, I want everything that little uncle said."

Lin Zhengda scratched his head, as if he didn't expect this little niece, who was about her age but very thoughtful, to like these things.

Immediately nodded and said: "Okay, I'll go pick palm leaves with your uncle, don't run around here."

Qingguo nodded heavily.

She will definitely not run around, she swears, even if she waits to become a fossil, she will not run around.

But even so, Lin Zhengda still called out to Lin Shanwen who was looking for fish in the river with a fork.

"Father, Fang Da and I are going to find some palm leaves to weave things for Guoer to play with. Watch her and don't let her go into the river."

Lin Shanwen nodded and said, "Understood, you go."

After Lin Zhengda and Lin Fangda left, Qingguo watched her thin and small grandpa looking for fish in the river with eyes as big as copper bells.

The river water is crystal clear, and the shallow part only reaches the bottom of Lin Shanwen's thighs. Qingguo watched her grandfather throw the harpoon into the water several times, but when he lifted it, he couldn't see even a fish scale .

"Grandpa, your harpoon should be aimed at a lower position than the fish." Qing Guo shouted from the shore.

Lin Shanwen raised his head and smiled at Qingguo. Although he didn't take it seriously, when he saw another fish, he couldn't help throwing the harpoon slightly below the fish.

With a sound of "crash", the calm river stirred up a lot of waves. Lin Shanwen picked up the harpoon in his hand, and suddenly found a big carp shaking its head and tail on the harpoon.

"Ah!" Lin Shanwen let out an unbelievable exclamation, and then shouted loudly to the green fruit on the bank: "Guoer, there are fish to eat!"

After the green fruit on the bank laughed like a silver bell, it grabbed the bamboo basket and started to walk into the river, "Grandpa, the basket."

"Caught a fish, caught a fish..."

Two cheers, one big and one small, sounded behind him. When Qing Guo turned her head, she saw her uncle and uncle running this way, even though they were so happy that they nearly jumped up, they didn't throw away a lot of things in their hands. Palm leaves.
