take a wife to support the family

Chapter 378: Li Yingchun Was Surprised 2
Yingchun's back was pressed against the wooden door, and her beating heart hadn't calmed down when she heard Yang Lin whisper, don't be afraid, she stood there in a daze, and only after a while did she feel that her heart seemed to be about to jump out of her cavity.

After a while, Yingchun didn't answer, Yang Lin said again: "I have no bad intentions for you, you are a girl, walking at night is really worrying. Tomorrow... I will see you off."

"If you don't speak, I'll take it as your agreement." Yang Lin said.

Yingchun covered her mouth, her mind was in a mess, and she couldn't speak a word.Yang Lin backed away slowly, Yingchun let out a sigh of relief when he heard his footsteps going away.

Her mind was in a mess, as if she had washed her face and feet in despair, she tidied up and lay on the bed.She stood for half a day, her legs and feet were numb and painful, and she felt more comfortable after lying down.

Yingchun has lived in the county for many days, so she naturally knows that although the county is peaceful, it's not that nothing happens.When the big girl and the little daughter-in-law go out at night, it is always easy for people to gag and drag them into the alley to defile them. Others don't know that the county government officers come and go to Lamei's house every day.

Yingchun prides herself on being bold, lives in a small courtyard by herself, and doesn't ask anyone to see her off when she comes out of Lamei's place every night.

She hides a pair of small scissors in her sleeve, which can protect herself in case of trouble.Lamei and Wang Xiaofu sent her off for two days at first, but she must not send them off afterwards: "You are patronizing to send me off, are you still doing your own business?"

Lamei asks the vegetable farmer to deliver vegetables every day, including the vegetables that Yingchun will use, which saves Yingchun a lot of work, so she doesn't want to trouble her sister and brother-in-law any more.

In the past few years, she thought of herself too much as a great person, and she didn't like this, and she was not as good as her, so she did something wrong in a daze.Now that I live a serious life by myself, I have to be successful, and I can't take my sister's affection as a right.

When a girl walks at night, she is naturally guilty. First, she is afraid that some shameless person will take advantage of her. Second, she can't control the random thoughts in her mind. She can think of ghosts and ghosts at the slightest shadow, and she trembles with fright.

Yingchun on the road tonight was a little frightened by Yang Lin. After calming down and thinking about it, he forgot to thank him...

Yingchun fell asleep in a daze, and forgot about it the next day: Anyone can say polite words, but Yang Lin just said that, and she didn't take it seriously.

Unexpectedly, that night, Yang Lin really watched her close the stall and go home before returning to his own home.This time Yang Lin didn't say anything, but Yingchun was a little entangled: favors are the worst thing to owe, and Yang Lin treats her like this, but she has nothing to repay, so she dare not accept his kindness.

Two or three days later, Yang Lin seemed to regard sending Yingchun home as an errand, not too late every day.

Yingchun hesitated to tell him to tell him not to come in the future, but before she opened her mouth, Yang Lin walked away first, and it turned out that he was hiding from her.Yingchun wanted to say it several times, but he couldn't find a chance, so he had to give up.

Yang Lin's own family has no one who knows the cold and the hot, so he either eats dinner with Wang Xiaofu, or eats hot and sour noodles at Yingchun's.

Yang Lin quietly put the money in the bottom of the bowl, Yingchun's small business is hard to make a profit, and it's a girl's family, making a living is difficult, he, a big man, can't bear to take such a small advantage.

Yingchun whispered these things to Lamei: "It's like I'm hanging on to him, taking advantage of all the benefits and not giving anyone an answer, what do you want me to do?"

Lamei said: "Although it is difficult to owe favors, it is not difficult for our family to pay back favors from others. Don't panic, you didn't take money that you shouldn't have, and you didn't find him to ask him to do something for you, and you can't owe it." What."

Yang Lin is the deputy head arrester, in charge of arrests, robbery and anti-smuggling in the county, so what's wrong with escorting individuals?
Yingchun spends his days doing business energetically, and at night he goes back to lie on the bed and turn over like pancakes, thinking that this can't go on like this: for a long time, even if Yang Lin is determined to marry a wife, there is a rumor that he takes care of her every day, he It is also difficult to marry a good girl.

One day, Yang Lin saw Yingchun coming to the door, took out the key to unlock it, and was about to leave when Yingchun entered the door. Suddenly, Yingchun turned around and said to him: "Captain Yang, I have something to tell you."

Yang Lin was so nervous that his throat tightened, and he was not as fierce as the magistrate. He walked up to him stiffly, and asked in a hoarse voice, "What do you want to say?"

Yingchun took a deep breath: "These days, thank you for your care. I dare not forget this kindness. In the future, when you get married and have children, I will definitely give you a big gift."

Yang Lin's expression could not be seen in the dark, he only heard him say: "No need! I, I don't intend to get married..."

Yingchun said softly: "You work hard as errands. I heard that before dawn, you have to go to the yamen to check and inspect everywhere. There is nothing serious in the county. It depends on you."

Her throat was injured before, it was not delicate like an ordinary girl, but rather hoarse, like a scar from the rubbing of the world, one couldn't help feeling distressed.

Yang Lin was speechless. He hadn't heard Yingchun speak so softly for several years. He only heard her say, "You have worked hard every day on duty. I feel sorry for sending me off again. In the future, don't send me off. I can do it myself."

Yang Lin's mouth was full of bitterness, and he repeated woodenly: "No more?"

"Well, I appreciate your kindness, so you don't need to see me off." Yingchun pushed the door into the room, closed the door behind her back, and heard Yang Lin whisper "Okay" after a while, his voice seemed to be crying, and he raised his hand to wipe his face, full of tears .

After this day, Yang Lin came less often, and came to eat noodles every four or five days, which was similar to others, and he was paid according to the money, and left after eating, and Yingchun didn't say anything else.

Lamei also asked Wang Xiaofu: "Catcher Yang said that he gave us the meal money and brought him with us when cooking every day. If he didn't come these days, what should we do?"

Wang Xiaofu smiled and said, "It doesn't matter, the big deal is to return the deposit to him."

Aunt Wang sighed at the side: "I think Yang Butou is a good guy, please advise Yingchun girl, don't be stubborn, I'm afraid you will enjoy the blessings in the future."

Lamei knew very well that her sisters, no matter how gentle or stubborn they were on the surface, had a certain sense of death in their bones, and no persuasion would work for what they believed in.

In particular, Yingchun has suffered from men's losses, and she is extremely defensive. She said that she is only afraid of bad things, and only said to Mrs. Wang: "Twisted melons are not sweet. She has suffered so much. We are reluctant to force her again, and let her go." Bar."

Aunt Wang hugged Tingyu and sighed straight away. Tingyu was a small person, eccentric, and sighed after her grandma, which made everyone laugh.

Everyone laughed for a while, even if this matter is over, don't mention it any more.

Unexpectedly, there will be unpredictable things in the sky, and those who do business well will never expect that the sky will fall to them.

At the beginning, Yingchun put all her savings into the food stalls. Before returning to the capital, she cooked porridge and ate it every day, so she could still eat meat at Lamei's house.

After a month or so, she will be able to eat meat every other day or two, and there is no shortage of meat and oil.Feeling relieved, his face changed accordingly, the brows that were frowned in the past were relaxed, and the whole person looked a lot brighter.

She was gradually becoming famous in the county, but she made a friend: they were not strangers, just Liu Zhong and Liu Yaowen, father and son.

At the beginning, Liu Yaowen lied to Yingchun that he was innocent, but he refused to admit it afterwards. If Yingchun hadn't hung himself on the beam of his house with a rope, how could he have hurt his house at all?

Later Liu Yaowen fled to avoid the limelight, but Song Haonian caught up with him, broke his leg, and threw him to a neighboring county to fend for himself.Liu Zhong and his wife were kicked out of the Liu Mansion and went to a neighboring county to find their son.

There has been no movement in the past few years. Everyone in Qingliu Town has long forgotten that there is such a person. Who would have thought that they would come back to Taiping County?

It turned out that when Liu Zhong and his wife were looking for their son in a neighboring county, they didn't have much money, so the family of three had to sell their clothes to survive.

When Liu Zhong and his wife found Liu Yaowen, Liu Yaowen's leg could not be healed for a long time. They told them that if they didn't saw it off, their whole body would rot to death. The last bit of money they had was used to ask the doctor to saw Liu Yaowen's leg In the end, they didn't even have a decent place to live. Fortunately, there was a hut beside the road where someone died, and it was empty, so they lived in it. At least there was a place to keep out the rain.

Liu Zhong's family earns some money by washing and washing clothes for others, and Liu Zhong does part-time labor for others.Pian Liuzhong is used to being a big housekeeper, so it's better to direct others. After a few days, other people's housekeepers will hate him for being troublesome. If he refuses to hire him, he has nowhere to go.

He is not young, so he can't carry rice sacks like a young man. Fortunately, he can talk and flatter the shopkeeper of the rice shop, so he can keep this job.

Pianliu Zhong's house washes clothes by the water in the winter. It is not suitable to compete with others for water, but someone pushes them into the water.He was half dead when he was caught, and he was rescued with great difficulty, but he was sick and sick, and died after suffering for half a year.

Liu Zhong raised Liu Yaowen by himself, how could he survive? He used to treat his son as a thorn in his side, but now he has become a thorn in his side, beating and scolding at home all day, urging him to find a job outside.

Liu Yaowen is a cripple with a broken leg who can't write or draw, how can he find a job?
The life of father and son got worse and worse, and finally they had to live by begging.

People are poor and short-sighted, and when they are really poor, they don't care about face anymore. Liu Zhong thought, they dare not go back to Qingliu Town, but when he was a housekeeper, he also knew a few friends in Taiping County. Now he In such a state of desperation, he simply tried his luck. In case of luck, whoever has pity on him will give him one or two taels of silver, which is just a few months of chewing.

The father and son begged all the way back to Taiping County. No one recognized them. When they found a friend's house, how could a friend recognize them?They all said, "My loyal brother went out to do business, where did you come from as a beggar, and dare to pretend to be him?"

The father and son stayed in the bridge hole for the night and begged in the county during the day. It happened that Yingchun was setting up a stall selling hot and sour noodles there that day. , the whole face is warm and golden.

Liu Yaowen's long face was twisted fiercely, he gritted his teeth and said, "Father, it's this bitch..."

Liu Zhong hated Yingchun even more than he did. If she had been willing to swallow her anger back then, he is still the head butler of Liu's mansion, how could he be in this situation?
Apart from begging for food, the father and son also sneaked around to get by. They had a tacit understanding for a long time. The two of them looked at each other and made a plan. They watched Yingchun close the stall, and they hung behind her, trying to give her a good look.
