The noise over there could almost be heard in the entire cornfield, and Lin Nianhe naturally heard it clearly, but she didn't answer, let alone react. She just moved her mouth faster and took the time to put the strawberry that had just been stuffed into her mouth. Swallow.
Until Aunt Li couldn't hold it any longer, she approached Lin Nianhe and asked her: "Xiao Lin Zhiqing, what is going on? Miao Zhiqing asked you how much money you borrowed?"
Aunt Li thought, with Lin Nianhe's generosity, she wouldn't make the educated youth in the same college cry like this for a dozen or twenty yuan, right?
Lin Nianhe laughed when he heard Aunt Li's words.
It had to be Aunt Li, she really asked the right question.
She stood up, stretched her sore ankles, pulled off the gauze scarf and said to Aunt Li: "Miao Zhiqing's family needs to prepare three rounds and one ring and eighty-eight yuan in gift money. Ask me to borrow two hundred yuan."
Originally, everyone in the cornfield was paying attention here, but if Lin Nianhe spoke louder, all the aunts nearby heard him.
Lin Nianhe heard the gasps one after another.
Aunt Li staggered and looked at Miao Yulan with eyes as wide as bells.
I hadn't noticed it before, but Miao Zhiqing has such a big face!
Lin Nianhe looked at Aunt Li and said softly: "And I didn't say I wouldn't borrow it. Although Miao Zhiqing and I have only known each other for a day, we can't help but help, right?"
"It's just that I don't have that much money, so I summed up how much Wang Zhiqing lent her, and I also asked my family to borrow the same amount. It's not good for my brother to be unable to get married, Aunt Li, don't you think so? "
Aunt Li rolled her eyes and poked Lin Nianhe on the forehead: "I said no! You silly girl, it's not like this marriage can't be concluded without three twists and turns! Besides, that's someone else's brother, not you. Brother, why are you joining in the fun?"
As soon as Aunt Li roared, the other aunts also recovered from the shock.
Two hundred dollars!
They farmers can't save so much in three to five years!
"Miao Zhiqing, to put it bluntly, no matter how big your butt is, you should wear the same size pants. If you don't have that precious life, don't get involved with the wife in the city."
"Besides, how can you ask someone how much money you want to borrow after just one day of acquaintance? You are usually quite honest, but why are you so bold all of a sudden?"
"Girl of the Miao family, don't be confused. How can you pay back this money if you borrow it? What will you do if you don't get married? Marry Lin Zhiqing's brother?"
Lin Nianhe waved his hands repeatedly: "Auntie, don't talk nonsense. I don't dare to interfere with my brother's finding a partner. If my mother finds out, she will have to whip me."
Good guy, it's not enough for her to pay two hundred yuan for a ride, but she actually wants to send her brother there too?
Miao Yulan's original image of a weak person instantly changed into that of a fool who knew no sense of proportion. She sat in the field, listening to these harsh words, and turned to look at Wang Xue blankly.
This... doesn't it mean that Lin Nianhe can rely on the opinions of the masses to help? Why is it different from what was planned?
Wang Xue did not expect that the situation could change so quickly. She looked at Miao Yulan blankly, not knowing what to do next.
At this moment, Li Dahe came over with his hands behind his back.
Seeing a group of people shouting about not working, the little old man raised his eyebrows: "What are you doing? All the work is done?"
This question Lin Nianhe said: "Under the mobilization of Wang Zhiqing, we are trying to find a way for Miao Zhiqing to collect the money for her brother's gift!"
Li Dahe's eyebrows trembled, his eyes widened and he shouted angrily: "I'm not active in my work every day, and I'm the first foreigner to be distracted! Every one of them counts, and one work point will be deducted!"
"ah?"
"Captain! Can you blame us for this?"
"Miao Zhiqing has been howling since she started work. I thought her father was dead! Is it wrong to ask?"
"Miao Zhiqing, please speak up. Everyone is kind-hearted to help you find a solution. There is no reason to deduct work points for accompanying you!"
Miao Yulan was besieged by a group of aunts and was so frightened that she did not dare to shed tears.
Li Dahe also knew that if everyone's work points were deducted today, Miao Yulan would have to be eaten alive, so he yelled again: "Okay! If you wait any longer, if you don't complete today's task, your work points will be deducted!"
The aunts all cheered and dispersed, and no one dared to waste time anymore.
Lin Nianhe also quickly wrapped a gauze scarf and hid under the corn leaves.
Li Dahe didn't bother to care about the bride price, rolled his eyes and walked away.
He walked lightly, leaving resentment in the cornfield.
These days, work points are food and life!
She was almost killed and had to have her work points deducted. It's strange that the aunts were so kind to Miao Yulan.
Listening to the strange taunts, Miao Yulan wanted to run away.
But her work wasn't finished yet and she couldn't leave.
Miao Yulan bent down to work, her sweat and tears moistening the earth. However, she was not in the mood to dislike this miserable life. She was just racking her brains to think about where to get the money to buy a bride price for her brother.
Wang Xue also worked hard and was very confused——
Obviously when she was at home in the past, she only had to pretend to be pitiful outside, and her stepmother had to satisfy her request even if she hated her to death. Why didn't this tried-and-true trick not work today?
Lin Nianhe could feel the sadness of Miao Yulan and Wang Xue, because they glared at her whenever they had the chance, and it was difficult for her to ignore them.
But she doesn't have any psychological burden. She's not the one who has to cause trouble at work. You can't just throw the responsibility on her just because she's not miserable.
If there was anything wrong with her, it was that she shouldn't have eaten melon at noon.
Lin Nianhe had a long memory, and when he returned to the educated youth spot, he went straight into his small room, bolted the door, and didn't listen to what was going on outside the window.
To celebrate coming back alive from the first day of farm work, Lin Nianhe made braised pork with the pork belly sent by Su Yuncheng in the evening, and stir-fried a handful of green vegetables. It was a combination of meat and vegetables, with balanced nutrition.
Her cooking skills were learned from a chef after she was reborn, and she can cook home-cooked meals with ease.
Lin Nianhe was particularly satisfied with this braised pork meal. It had to be said that the pork in this era was really fragrant and full of meat flavor.
She deliberately made more and left half of it to save herself the effort of cooking at noon tomorrow.
After eating and drinking, Lin Nianhe closed the curtains. After taking a bath, Lin Nianhe applied layer after layer of whitening skin care products very carefully. The amount was slightly too much, which made her face white twice.
She originally wanted to read a book for a while before falling asleep. Unexpectedly, she fell into a deep sleep as soon as her head hit the pillow.
midnight.
When Lin Nianhe was sleeping soundly, a shrill scream pulled her out of her sleep.
She sat up suddenly from the kang, held her breath and listened carefully, and heard the broken screams of pain one after another outside the east wall, interspersed with the sound of metal twisting, which was particularly frightening.
Lin Nianhe raised his eyebrows, already understanding what was happening outside.
She quietly got off the kang, put away all the things that shouldn't be in the room, then put on her coat and moved the animal trap next to the door.
It was already bustling outside. The educated youths in the front yard were the first to arrive. Sun Guanghui was holding a flashlight, serious but confused.
The villagers followed closely behind. This voice disturbed the dreams of countless people. Everyone rushed over, firstly because they were afraid that something would really happen, and secondly because they were afraid that they would not get first-hand information.
Lin Nianhe waited until there were more people outside before opening the door and sticking his head out.
Li Dahe pushed through the crowd and walked in: "Xiao Lin educated youth, what's going on?"
Lin Nianhe pointed to the gap between the courtyard wall and the house: "The sound over there seems to be someone climbing over the wall."
Li Dahe took a flashlight and looked up, and saw a black shadow squirming on the ground. If he hadn't made some human noise, Li Dahe would have mistaken him for a black python.
"Go, get him out!" Li Dahe frowned and turned back to signal his wife to comfort Lin Nianhe.
Before Aunt Li could move, Wang Shumei and Wen Lan ran to Lin Nianhe first. Wen Lan stood in front of Lin Nianhe with a golden sword, while Wang Shumei held her shoulders and patted her shoulders comfortingly.
Seeing Sun Guanghui taking the lead and trying to squeeze into the crack in the wall, Lin Nianhe quickly reminded him: "Watch your step."
Only then did Sun Guanghui see the mousetrap in that area.
He clicked his tongue, carefully leaned in, plucked the man's hair and pulled him out.
As soon as this man showed up, everyone at the scene fell silent.
They had seen mousetraps before, but this man had almost enough mousetraps for the entire Shili Brigade...
