Chapter 128 Begging Him
After receiving an IV drip, Mr. Lin ate some steamed buns and drank the malted milk prepared by Lin Yiyi. He felt much more energetic.
Knowing that the conditions on the farm were not good, I bought some coarse grain buns for Lin's father to take back for dinner and breakfast.
Steamed buns are better than corn bread.
Father Lin lives in a large dormitory. Everyone is poor and eats about the same amount of food. If you live too well, it will easily make people jealous.
In order to avoid unnecessary trouble, Lin Yiyi pretended to be distressed and said, "We have been apart for a long time, and eating white noodles can be considered as celebrating a good day. Dad, we have to go back early the day after tomorrow. I have paid for the medical expenses. You only need to come to the clinic every day for infusion."
Father Lin had mixed feelings as his family had fallen into the current situation. Although he and his wife lived together, they seldom had the chance to see each other due to their different daily responsibilities. Knowing that his daughter had married casually just to make a living, as a father, it was like stabbing him in the heart.
Not wanting his daughter to worry, Father Lin agreed with a smile, "Okay, I understand."
As a father, he couldn't take good care of his daughter and might even drag her down. Now that things had come to this, he only hoped that Zhao Sheng would treat Yiyi well and not look down on her because of her parents' affairs. Lin Jie wanted to say a few words to his son-in-law, and the others also went to the bench in the corridor to wait.
Father Lin sighed, coughed twice, and spoke to his son-in-law, "Since you and Yiyi are already husband and wife, we as parents can only bless you and hope you cherish and love your daughter. Yiyi's mother and I are in prison and can't take care of ourselves. I don't know if there will be a day when our family will be reunited. I entrust my daughter to you."
Zhao Sheng looked at the thin, sickly middle-aged man, nodded in agreement, and said seriously: "Dad, don't worry, Yiyi will be taken care of by me in the future."
After that, the two fell silent.
In fact, both men were not satisfied with each other, but because of Lin Yiyi, they still sat together and talked. Finally, Zhao Sheng revealed the matter of the quilt to Lin's father, and the brief conversation ended.
The father-in-law just doesn't like his son-in-law at all.
I feel like my cabbages are being eaten by pigs.
But as a man, Zhao Sheng's willingness to accompany his wife on this journey of thousands of miles, as well as the incident with the quilt, made Lin's father look at him with new eyes. Zhao Sheng is a responsible, bold and careful person.
After the infusion, Lin Yiyi and Zhao Sheng sent Lin's father back to the farm and agreed to pick him up early the next morning.
It was already dinner time when they returned to the town. After dinner, they went back to the guesthouse. Neither of them took the initiative to talk to each other the whole afternoon. They just relied on tacit eye contact to communicate.
Lin Yiyi took out an apple from her bag. Because water was in short supply here, she naturally found a knife from the man's backpack and started peeling the apple. After a short while, she successfully slimmed down the apple.
She leaned on the table with her chin on her left hand, munching on a piece of fruit with her right hand, and looked at the man who was sitting opposite her with a look of anger.
Zhao Sheng glanced at her with a gloomy expression. What she did in the afternoon further confirmed what he was thinking. With someone backing her up, Lin Yiyi stopped pestering him.
If she really gets too independent, she won't care about him anymore. She is sweet-mouthed and good at coaxing people. If he doesn't keep a close eye on her, he won't know where she'll go.
He was so angry, but Lin Yiyi still had an appetite for apples. The man said in a deep voice, "Come here."
Lin Yiyi: “…”No.
The woman stood up obediently, walked over and sat on the man's lap, nestling in Zhao Sheng's arms and crunching an apple.
Father Lin was in poor health and had to come to town for intravenous drip for the next few days and needed someone to help. She turned her attention to Yang Rongguang and Ma Jiping, but she didn't know how to start the conversation.
I want to spend money to hire someone directly, but I'm afraid that they will agree to it in person but not do it behind my back, which is likely to have a bad impact.
Different identities, management staff and prisoners under reform.
It's a rather tricky matter, and she needs Zhao Sheng's help.
The two were very close to each other. He lowered his eyes to look at him, his eyes were dark and filled with emotions that were difficult to understand.
Lin Yiyi raised her head to look at him and asked softly, "Do you want to eat?"
The man didn't say anything nor refused, his eyes stayed on her face, wanting her to take the initiative.
Okay, it’s time for him to coax her again.
He started asking people to guess what made him unhappy, and would ignore people if they guessed wrong.
Lin Yiyi held the apple in her mouth and freed her hand to peel one for him, but just as she picked up the knife, the man stopped her. Zhao Sheng took the apple from her mouth, took two bites, and then handed it to her again.
The two of them had done the most intimate things, but Lin Yiyi just didn't want to eat what he had nibbled.
He turned away but said nicely, "Eat it. Eating more apples is good for your health."
Then Lin Yiyi changed the subject again, "We will be back the day after tomorrow. My dad needs to come to town for an IV and I don't know who can help take care of him and take him to and from school."
Not wanting to eat what he had already eaten, Zhao Sheng swallowed the fruit in his mouth expressionlessly, and continued to chew the apple slowly without responding to her.
Being ignored by the man, Lin Yiyi knew that he was being stingy and tried to act coquettishly, "Can you help me think of a solution? You are smarter than me and have more ideas." He is also very cunning.
Zhao Sheng just paused and then continued to remain silent.
When asking for help, you must be humble.
Someone who is very good at reading people's expressions quickly made amends.
Lin Yiyi grabbed the man's wrist, took a small bite of the apple from his hand, ate it quickly, and then sought help and coaxed him, "Please, can you help me?"
Zhao Sheng felt that it was not enough and refused to compromise easily, so he did not answer.
"Say something? What do you want me to do to give you some advice?"
Three visits to the thatched cottage finally made it happen.
