Even the slightest thought that Lin's mother had originally had to bring the two together vanished instantly.

Lin Jiujiu, who was in the kitchen, had extraordinary senses. Even without her deliberately eavesdropping, she could hear the conversation of the group.

Lin Jiujiu smiled slightly. She suddenly realized that her younger brother wasn't so incredibly stupid after all.

After the Lin family members were taken away, they were quickly released. Only the elderly couple were imprisoned in the county government office and there has been no news of them since.

After this incident, everyone in the village said that Lin Jiujiu had powerful backers, and no one dared to cause trouble for her anymore.

The construction of her house went exceptionally smoothly.

However, it has already taken shape in just a few days.

The overall layout of the courtyard adopted the design of Hui-style gardens that Lin Jiujiu had seen in a small world she once lived in, and the pavilions and towers were also in line with the aesthetics of this era.

In addition to the main courtyard, there are two courtyards on the east and west sides. The structure of the courtyards is not complicated. They are all two-story buildings, separating the reception area from the living area.

She had already decided that the main courtyard would be where she, her parents, and her younger sister would live, and the remaining four courtyards would be for each of her brothers, making it convenient whether they lived together or separately in the future.

The last remaining spot can be used as a guest courtyard for now, and will be reserved for Xiaodouding's wedding in the future.

In addition, rows of small houses will be built around the courtyard wall. Once the houses are built, the family will definitely not be able to manage such a large area, and they will definitely have to hire people.

She didn't like the smell in her home, so she specially designed a drainage system that draws spring water from the hillside into her house.

They commissioned a batch of ceramic toilets and washbasins from a craftsman specializing in porcelain firing.

Everything went smoothly, which made Lin Jiujiu very happy.

The only thing that bothered her was the two people who arrived at her door promptly at dawn and didn't leave until dark.
