When Little Taohua was abandoned by her biological parents at the start, the normal storyline would surely involve a difficult life. However, Little Taohua had powerful backing! Besides Heavenly Da...
Chapter 102 This is a real blessing!
Little Peach Blossom patted her belly and said, "I've already eaten."
"Oh, you've already eaten. What did you eat?"
"Dad, Little Peach Blossom ate a rabbit leg and a chicken leg! Dad, let me tell you, I played a part in roasting that rabbit and chicken. I heard that Chinese medicine can be eaten, so I ground some powder and put it on top. The rabbit and chicken smelled so good!" Lin Yuqing described excitedly. Lin Guangyi, on the other hand, wanted to kick his son. Did he even have the right to speak here? No way!
"Oh." Lin Guangyi said expressionlessly.
"Dad, do you think I should thank the person who gave me this prescription after I've heard about it?"
"It's up to you to decide."
"Then I'll go to town tomorrow and see if I run into them. If I do, I'll thank them. I need to take two eggs with me. Mom, could you get me two eggs?"
Wang Qiu wanted to hit someone, but since his older brother and the others were all there, he could only force a smile and say, "Wait, I'll get it for you tomorrow!"
"But I need it now, I'm afraid I'll forget tomorrow."
Wang Qiu glared at her son: "Fine, I'll get it for you!"
"Thank you, Mom!" Lin Yuqing said happily.
Lin Guangsheng raised an eyebrow at his nephew and said, "Not bad, he has a sense of responsibility."
"Hehe." Lin Yuqing was delighted by her uncle's praise.
That brat!
Lin Yuqing was completely unaware that she had offended her parents.
After that, Lin Guangyi couldn't find a suitable topic to talk about, which made him even angrier.
Little Peach Blossom was unaware of her second uncle's thoughts. After everyone had finished eating, she went back to her room with her mother for a nap. Her little belly rose and fell, and surprisingly, she slept quite soundly, seemingly unaffected by what happened that morning.
But the way of Heaven is different; it has its eye on a person, or more precisely, the person currently living in the big house in Xiaotaohua Xiaolin Village.
Lin Fengjuan ate very quickly. Everyone knew she was going to town to arrange a marriage for someone, so no one said anything. After she finished eating, she quickly went back to her room to get some things and then went to town.
Having spent the last six months getting acquainted with the town, Lin Fengjuan found the girl's temporary residence with ease and knocked on the door.
"Sister Juan." Upon seeing the familiar Lin Fengjuan outside the door, the woman inside immediately burst into tears.
"Hey, that's good news, why are you crying?"
"I can't help it."
"Alright, your good days are coming."
"Really?" The other person looked up in surprise.
"Absolutely true!"
"Thank you, Sister Juan. I wouldn't have a good life if it weren't for you."
"What are you saying? It's all thanks to your own hard work. Otherwise, if you had just been suffering in that family, your life would have been over."
"Okay. Sister Juan, have some water."
"Don't bring me water yet, let me tell you about this."
"I'm listening." The other person obediently sat down opposite Lin Fengjuan.
"The person I'm telling you about comes from a well-off family. Although he has several brothers, he's considered the most favored among them. They own a large brick house with tiled roofs, and someone in his family works in town. The whole family is well-off."
He Yunzhi never dared to dream of such a condition before, but now, she has sold herself to such a faraway place, and unexpectedly, things have taken a turn for the better.
Lin Fengjuan continued, "His son also took a liking to you at first sight. This morning he even came to me specifically to say that he would give you a dowry of three hundred yuan and a bicycle."
"No, this won't do, it's too expensive."
Lin Fengjuan patted her hand: "It's not expensive, their family can afford it, and they seem to genuinely think you're a good person and want to marry you."
"I... I have no merit whatsoever..."
“What’s wrong with you? Look, you’re beautiful, educated, and have a good personality. There’s just one thing: I told them that you were the only one left after your family had a tragedy, which is why I was the one who acted as matchmaker. In other words, you have no relatives left in this life, no family of your own.”
“Sister Juan, it’s okay. My family is practically nonexistent anyway. I know you’re doing this for my own good.”
"Oh, you silly girl."
"Thank you, Sister Juan, thank you so much."
"I already said there's no need to thank me, and I didn't help you for free, so you still have to give me a bonus."
"I'll give it all to you, I don't want a single penny of the bride price."
"What are you saying! You must bring the betrothal gifts!"
"No, we agreed that you have to pay me if you introduce me to someone," He Yunzhi insisted.
After much persuasion, Lin Fengjuan finally relented: "Alright, you don't need to give me too much, just fifty will do."
"No, I'll either give you all of it, or I'll give you half!"
"Sigh, I'll just shamelessly accept half."
"Sister Juan."
"Alright, alright, stop crying. Just wait patiently. I'll go to that family to mediate, and then you can wait to be the bride and get married beautifully."
“Yes!” He Yunzhi nodded emphatically.
"Your life has finally turned around from hardship to happiness."
He Yunzhi laughed along with her.
Yes, after hardship comes happiness.
"Alright, that's all I have to say. I have to go to work this afternoon and get back."
"Why the rush?"
"There's nothing I can do about this. I'm leaving now. Don't see me off, and don't go out. It's not safe for a young woman like you to be out there."
"Yes, I remember them all."
"Then I'm leaving."
Goodbye, Sister Juan.
Lin Fengjuan took a deep breath, thinking about how quickly they had come and gone.
I was a little tired, but I was happy to be tired.
Thinking about the 150 yuan I'll soon receive, I feel my life will be better from now on. And the 20 yuan in wedding money I received this morning makes me feel even happier.
Lin Fengjuan was dreaming about the future when she accidentally bumped into someone on the street: "Excuse me, comrade, are you alright?"
"It's nothing," the other person waved their hand.
"It's good that you're alright," Lin Fengjuan breathed a sigh of relief. At this moment, the other person looked up and suddenly stared at Lin Fengjuan: "Who are you?"
Upon seeing the other person's face, Lin Fengjuan's pupils shrank: "Sorry, I have something to do, I'll be going now." After saying that, she ran away as if fleeing.
The man who had been staring at Lin Fengjuan's retreating figure finally remembered who she was after a long while: "Sister Feng!"
"What Sister Feng? Do you know Lin Fengjuan?" Someone who knew Lin Fengjuan chimed in curiously.
"Lin Fengjuan?" the other person murmured.
"Yes, didn't you just call her Sister Feng? Comrade Lin Fengjuan is really pitiful. Her husband treated her like that, what did she do wrong?"
"Could you please explain what happened?"
"Who are you!"
"I used to be colleagues with Lin Fengjuan. I was worried when she suddenly disappeared, but I didn't expect to see her here."
"Wow, Lin Fengjuan was a worker back then, amazing."
The other person twitched their lips, neither admitting nor denying.
"Let me tell you, Comrade Lin Fengjuan is truly pitiful. You have no idea, when her family had that misfortune, her husband was heartless. He abandoned her and their child. If she hadn't been able to come back and seek refuge with relatives, she probably wouldn't have survived." The other person was quite talkative, recounting Lin Fengjuan's entire story. After finishing, he still seemed to have more to say: "Now she's living a good life. The Lin family in Xiaolin Village is a well-known wealthy family in the town. As long as you stay there, you won't have any problem eating and drinking your fill. It's a paradise."
