Chapter 428 Not Sowing

"Does mom also think that I am not as good as her? She is living a good life now and lives in the city. Mom would also like to be close to a daughter like that, right?"

Mother Lin knew who she was talking about. She held her grandson in her arms and spoke softly.

"What's the point of you saying all this now? Mom found such a good marriage for you, but you refused to marry Li Guangyuan. Do you regret it now? If you had listened to Mom, you would have gone to the city and become a city dweller."

Lin Jiayi turned her head and looked out the window. "I don't care about city people, let alone the Qin family."

Lin's mother just thought she was sulking.

What happened to the Qin family? I heard that Qin Yang has become an official now, and the eldest brother of the Qin family has also started a business.

The Qin family's business is different from Li Guangyuan's. Theirs are big businesses that make money.

As for the claim that she didn't care about city people, Lin's mother didn't believe it at all.

Who among the villagers doesn’t envy the city dwellers for eating commercial grain?

Not to mention others, just look at the two sisters-in-law of the Li family, they are almost going crazy wanting to marry city people.

Thinking of this, Lin's mother couldn't help but speak, "How is your sister-in-law? I heard that your mother-in-law asked a matchmaker to look for several men for her during the Spring Festival, but there was no suitable one? In my opinion, your sister-in-law is not young anymore, and it's time for her to find a partner and get married. She is a nuisance at home all day long."

"I want her to get married, but who in the family listens to me now?" When talking about the Li family, Lin Jiayi was even more aggrieved. "Li Hongmei didn't marry well at the beginning, and she blamed me. She still hates me. I don't know what she said to Li Dongmei. Now Li Dongmei doesn't even listen to her mother, let alone us."

"So she's just going to stay at home like an old maid? You have to talk to Guangyuan about this. It's not that you dislike this sister-in-law, but a woman's good years are only a few years. If she becomes an old maid, it will be hard for her to get married."

Lin Jiayi was looking forward to that scene.

Her two sisters-in-law have higher standards than each other.

I originally thought that Li Hongmei was the most difficult to deal with because she was cunning, but I didn't expect that Li Dongmei was also a person with big ideas without making any noise.

"Let them be. It would be wrong for me to say one more word in that family now. If they are willing to raise their daughter as a treasure, then let them raise her as they please."

Mother Lin nodded, and understood her daughter's difficulties. "That's true. Fortunately, your sister-in-law is running to the city with Guangyuan all day long. It's a good opportunity to help him, and save you the trouble of taking care of the children and running around. But your eldest sister-in-law, when I met your cousin during the New Year, he mentioned that your eldest sister-in-law was also making a fuss at her husband's house. I think they are a good family there, and the man knows how to protect her. Although they are a little poor, what family is not poor now? With hands and feet, you can always live a good life, but she insists on comparing herself with other people's own son. How can she compare?"

Lin Jiayi looked at her son who was already asleep in his mother's arms, gritted her teeth and said with some hesitation, "Of course, someone who is not your biological child cannot be compared to your biological child."

She said this very seriously, and Lin's mother didn't know whether she heard it or not. She just said worriedly, "If she continues to make such a fuss over there, she won't really get divorced, right? If she gets divorced and goes back to her parents' home, how are you going to live?"

Lin Jiayi snorted coldly, "Don't worry, Mom. She is smarter than anyone else. This marriage cannot be divorced. Not to mention that the Ma family will not let her divorce. If she really divorces and returns to the village, she will be drowned by spit."

……………………

After finishing his homework, Lin Jiadong quietly opened the door when he heard no movement outside.

Seeing my mother cooking in the outer room, I called out quietly, "Mom, is my eldest sister gone?"

Mother Lin didn't look up as she added firewood to the stove. "She's gone, she's gone a long time ago. You too, your elder sister had such a hard life, why did you have to stab her in the heart?"

Lin Jiadong stood up and walked out of the house with a swagger.

"She has a hard life, that's her own life. What does it have to do with us? What does it have to do with my second sister? Every time she comes back, it's as if we owe her something. She gets angry when my second sister is mentioned. Didn't she insist on marrying my eldest brother-in-law in the first place?"

Mother Lin used the straw in her hand to hit him lightly on the body, "What nonsense are you talking about? I told you earlier that you are not allowed to mention this matter anymore."

“Okay, okay, I won’t mention it,” Lam Ka Tung surrendered quickly.

Mother Lin saw that he didn't take it to heart, and patiently advised, "Don't worry about the situation at the beginning. Your elder sister and second sister have been married for so many years. Regardless of your elder sister's situation, you don't want your second sister and your second brother-in-law to have a rift because of this, right? They don't have any children yet, and the Qin family is so rich, and your second brother-in-law is capable. If he is really dissatisfied with your second sister because of this, I think you should not continue your studies."

Lin Jiadong's expression changed slightly when he heard this.

It wasn't that he was afraid of not being able to go to school, but he thought about how good the relationship was between his second sister and her husband. If they really had a rift because of this, he would feel really sorry for his second sister.

"I know, Mom. I'll remember it and won't say it next time."

At this time, Lin's father came back from the field carrying a hoe, and Lin Jiadong's eyes lit up.

"Dad, you're back," he stepped forward, took the hoe from Lin's father's shoulder, and followed Lin's father into the house.

Father Lin's scalp tingled when he was looked at by him. While washing his hands, he asked, "What are you doing? Do you need to pay the school fee again? Didn't your second sister agree to support your studies?"

"No."

Lin Jiadong didn't like his parents bringing this up, but thinking about what was going to happen next, he didn't take it too seriously and asked directly.

"Dad, did you hear the loudspeaker announcement in the field today? The village chief said that the village wants to plant yellow peaches. Anyone who wants to plant can go to him to buy saplings. Don't we have a piece of mountain land? Do you want to plant peach trees there too?"

In the past, the village contracted out the hilltops, but after a few were contracted out, no one was interested in the rest.

Later, the village cadres discussed it and divided it into blocks and distributed it to the villagers.

Their family got one piece.

Father Lin actually heard about this matter, and a few of them who were working in the fields were sitting together discussing it.

Hearing his son say this, he directly refused and said, "No."

"Why not? Dad, do you also think that Third Brother Sun is reckless in planting yellow peaches? Don't listen to them. I think they are just jealous of Third Brother Sun and his family. Look, the Sun family has become extremely wealthy in the past two years. How can it be reckless?"

Mother Lin heard the father and son talking and looked over.

Father Sun insisted, "I don't care what others say. I can see that if you want to eat peaches, I will plant some hairy peach trees on our land so that you can eat as much as you want. As for the yellow peaches, who knows what Sun Lao San is up to? Maybe the peach saplings are just a cover. When we buy the saplings and work hard to raise them, but they don't bear fruit in the end, you won't have a place to cry then."

Lin Jiadong felt that what his father said was wrong and wanted to say something else, but Lin's mother spoke.

"Jiadong, you don't understand family matters, just study hard. Your father has lived to such an old age, isn't he better than you?"

Lin's father didn't want to continue

Continue the topic, "Is the meal ready? I'm hungry, let's eat."

Lin Jiadong moved his mouth, but finally stopped talking.

He met his second sister quite often in the city, and he guessed something in the past six months.

If I'm not mistaken, the yellow peaches planted by Third Brother Sun were probably planted by Second Sister.

His second sister is a very powerful person. Everyone in Qinjia Village and the county knows her. Brother Sun San and others also respect her very much.

But everyone in the family thinks that my second sister...

Never mind, maybe it's better this way.
