As a worker in the street office, Sun Xiang became a third-party witness to the rental contract between Old Man Zhao and Lin Yian, and it was also the first time she knew Old Man Zhao's full name.
"Zhao Jinxin... must be crazy about money."
After muttering to herself, Sun Xiang hurried back to the street office because she had other work to do.
Lin Yian, who left with Sun Xiang, had already returned to the Zhao family courtyard with his disguised bag.
"Mr. Zhao, please check it yourself. I will send you food every month from now on. Please help hide the things I find."
As long as nothing unexpected happens, Baiping City will be a place she can visit frequently in the future.
Lin Yian needs to find a relatively safe place for the source and transit of her things, and the place where Mr. Zhao, who is currently under her control, is the best choice.
Mr. Zhao opened the bag and took a look. The quality of the flour was excellent, so this deal was a good one.
"I will do what I promised."
Lin Yian nodded, and then he saw Xiaodong hiding behind the door in the side room, peeking at him. His heart softened and he said, "You... forget it, how old is Xiaodong?"
"Ten years old."
"Go back to the house!"
Mr. Zhao tied up the flour bag tightly and said, "It has nothing to do with you. I will clean up this yard during this time, but you have to bring your own things."
After saying that, Mr. Zhao walked into the house carrying a bag in one hand.
Lin Yian did not follow him, but looked at Mr. Zhao's back and shouted, "If there are some things that are inconvenient for you to teach Xiaodong, you can come to me."
The gate was closed again, and the courtyard, which had just seemed a little angry, returned to peace.
Xiaodong obediently brought the bowl for kneading dough and wanted to hand it to his grandfather, but his grandfather waved it away.
"I'll make you some dumpling soup today. Go get a bowl and scoop some flour back."
"good."
Xiaodong carefully opened the bag of flour and found a surprise hidden inside.
"Grandpa, look at this."
Old Zhao looked down and saw his granddaughter holding two round eggs in her hands. He looked back and saw five eggs in the bag.
………………
"Third sister, you seem very happy."
Lin Yian refilled the kettle with mung bean soup and added two more pieces of rock sugar: "Swallow the food in your mouth before talking."
Lin Jianbin pounded his chest and finally felt relieved. Just as he was about to ask again, he...
"I'm just happy."
It's better to have someone familiar with the situation in the city than to rush around like a headless fly.
Lin Jianzhen picked up a piece of shredded potato with chopsticks and said, "Third sister, we met those people from yesterday in the examination room."
"Did they cause you any trouble?"
Seeing his sister act like she would beat someone up if he just nodded, Lin Jianzhen quickly shook his head: "No. Tian Kun just said a few sarcastic words, but Jianhua retorted."
Lin Yian nodded with satisfaction: "That's good; if there is anything, I will solve it for you, you just focus on the exam."
solve?
Lin Jianhua thought of what had happened in the capital before and mourned for those three people in advance.
I hope they are smart and don't cause trouble in front of his sister.
Two days passed in a flash. Lin Yian postponed his return ticket for one day and came to the Zhao family courtyard with his three younger brothers.
"Sister, what did you bring us here for?"
Lin Yian walked up and knocked on the door: "Grandpa Zhao, it's me. I rented a temporary place to stay. Let me show you."
“Rent a house!”
Lin Yian pushed open the door in front of him and walked in first: "Keep your voice down and come in first."
After learning the whole story, the three Lin brothers looked at each other.
Their sister really deserves the name Aci.
Lin Yian didn’t care whether the three kids believed in her kindness or not; they couldn’t escape her control anyway.
"Grandpa Zhao, these are my three younger brothers. They will go to school at the No. 3 Middle School here. I'm sorry to trouble you to take care of them."
Mr. Zhao looked up at the three young men and said, "You rented a place, why should I take care of it?"
Lin Yian was already accustomed to the awkward old man's way of speaking, so he pushed his three younger brothers directly into the east wing and let them see the environment for themselves.
"Think for yourself about what you want to add later, and have it all ready before you start school."
Lin Jianbin couldn't help but roll his eyes: "Third sister, you just said we can't go out without your permission... Ouch!"
Lin Yian waved his fist and said with a smile: "See through but don't say it, understand?"
In the courtyard.
Xiaodong was still dressed in an ambiguous gender style. Lin Yian squatted down and whispered something to Xiaodong, then stuffed a package into the little guy and pushed him into the west wing.
"You don't consider yourself an outsider."
Lin Yian closed the doors of the two side rooms and said with a smile, "Grandpa Zhao, let's talk for a moment."
Inside the main house.
"Can Xiaodong's illness be cured?"
Lin Yian picked up the teapot and poured herself a glass of water: "Yes, but first she has to change into girl's clothes again, so that she can admit from the bottom of her heart that she is a girl. She has already had her first period, and now is the best time to correct it."
Old Zhao closed his eyes and thought that he was the one who delayed his granddaughter.
"What do you want?"
Lin Yian sighed exaggeratedly and raised the teacup in his hand: "Hey, haven't I told you everything I want? You don't have to feel any burden. After all, I will have to rent here for quite some time, not to mention that I still need your help. We can benefit each other."
After a moment, the two white porcelain teacups touched lightly.
As for whether there is sincerity in this transaction, I am afraid only the parties involved can know.
After walking out of the main house, the sky was already filled with sunset glow and the air began to be filled with the aroma of food.
Lin Yian couldn't help but stretch.
She found out that Xie Qinglan was not among the candidates admitted to the No. 3 Middle School this time, so Xiao Zhen's death was most likely avoided.
Now that everything is on track, it seems that things will be much easier in the future.
There are still three years left, that’s enough!
