Chapter 73 Sorry for staying overnight
Lin Mo and Luo Shuyan both felt bad. Although they had not discussed it before, they had the same idea: if the Zhao family refused, then forget it.
I didn't expect Zhao Liya to agree.
When Lin Mo left, he took out two taels of silver and wanted to give it to Zhao Liya: "I'm sorry to have caused trouble for Miss Zhao."
Zhao Liya didn't accept his money, but smiled and said, "Forget it. Convert it into prey and send it back slowly. We'd like to try some wild game. There's no rush. You can send it back anytime. I have one more unwelcome request. If my brother and I are not in the village in the future, please help look after my parents, brothers, and sisters."
Lin Mo's expression relaxed and he nodded: "Don't worry, it's no problem!"
He didn't like owing others, so when Zhao Liya made a request, he felt at ease.
Luo Shuyan did the same and smiled gratefully at Zhao Liya.
After seeing off Lin Mo and the other two, Zhao Liya took Luo Shuyan home. When they talked about this, the whole family was shocked, but they had no objection to taking Luo Shuyan in.
The Qi couple are really bad guys. Everyone hates them, but no one wants to provoke them.
Widow Qu and Mrs. Deng were both mothers. Their own daughters were fine, but when they saw other girls in such a plight, they couldn't help but feel motherly. They held Luo Shuyan's hands to comfort her, sighing with pity.
"If I had a daughter as good as this, I would cherish her in my hands. How could someone be so cruel?"
"Hey, I'm not cruel just because they're not my biological children! Oh Shuyan, please don't mind me, I don't mean anything else!"
Luo Shuyan smiled and shook her head, "The aunts are all good people, I'm not ungrateful."
This made Mrs. Deng and Widow Qu feel even more pity for her.
Luo Shuyan stayed at the Zhao family, and it was impossible to arrange another room for her for the time being, so Qu Yutao took the initiative to invite her to live with her.
Qu Yutao had also been in a state of panic before. The two girls could empathize with each other. Although they had never interacted before, they would say hello when they met occasionally, and they were considered half-acquaintances.
It's just right for two people to live together.
Luo family.
The Luo family was exiled because Uncle Luo's father had messed up a job, but no one else in the family was affected. Now the elders are long gone, and only Uncle Luo's family and Uncle Luo's younger brother's family are here.
Since their parents and elders had long passed away, the two brothers naturally separated.
Uncle Luo and Madam Qi had a pair of legitimate children besides Luo Shuyan, a concubine's daughter. Madam Qi originally had a legitimate eldest son, half a year older than Luo Shuyan, but he died of illness at the age of two, while Luo Shuyan lived on. From that time on, Madam Qi hated her immensely.
After being exiled here, they beat and scolded me in various ways.
Qi suffered such a great loss today. She returned home and spent a long time washing off the mud on her body, head and face. When she breathed, there seemed to be an lingering smell of mud in her mouth and nose, which made her feel nauseous and she cursed Luo Shuyan even more bitterly.
He was waiting for Luo Shuyan to come back and was determined to give her a good beating.
No, I waited and waited, but it was almost dark and Luo Shuyan still hadn't come back.
"Mom, I'm hungry, I want to eat!"
"Mom, why hasn't Luo Shuyan come back to cook yet? Will she let us eat?"
Both the youngest son Luo Xiaohui and biological daughter Luo Shuyu couldn't help but grumble and complain.
Qi was so angry that she scolded her husband: "What does that damn girl mean? Do you want me to invite her? Did she die in the fields? Why don't you hurry back and cook!"
Uncle Luo: "I'll go call her right away."
It was ridiculous that the couple took it for granted that Luo Shuyan would run away for a while and then go back to the rice fields to continue harvesting rice.
The couple unexpectedly agreed that Luo Shuyan was afraid of being scolded when she returned home, so she was still working hard in the rice fields.
Uncle Luo went to the fields but didn't see anyone. When he asked the villagers who were busy working in the neighboring rice fields, he found out that Luo Shuyan never went back to work!
The villagers also subtly but kindly advised Uncle Luo: "The rice is ripe now. If you don't harvest it quickly, it will fall to the ground. What a pity. The weather at this time of year is as unpredictable as a child's face. If you don't harvest it quickly while the weather is good, if it rains, the rice won't have time to dry out and will sprout. Once it sprouts, everything will be ruined! Shuyan, no matter how capable she is, is just a girl. You have several acres of land. If she relies on herself alone, it will take her forever to harvest. You better hurry up."
How could Uncle Luo listen to anything? He mumbled a few words and hurried back.
He was shocked!
That damn girl Luo Shuyan was actually lazy? She was lazy all day! Did she want to die? As the villager said, if she missed the harvest, even if she was beaten to death, it wouldn't make up for it.
As for harvesting the crops yourself? That's impossible.
In previous years, Lin Mo and Yu Xiaofang helped with farming and harvesting, so they didn't have to do anything. They had long been accustomed to it, so how could they possibly compromise?
If Lin Mo wants to marry Luo Shuyan, he has to work for them obediently!
Otherwise, don’t even think about it!
Shocked and angry, Uncle Luo returned home and told Qi about it in a rage, and Qi also became angry.
"That shameless thing must have gone to find Lin Mo! Why do we have such a thing at home?"
Qi and Uncle Luo angrily went to Lin Mo's house to look for someone. Luo Shuyu was curious and excitedly followed his brother to watch the fun.
Lin Mo and Yu Xiaofang had anticipated their arrival and had already hidden Luo Shuyan.
Relying on the fact that she was Lin Mo's "future mother-in-law", Qi never took Lin Mo seriously, and cursed him viciously without restraint, accusing Lin Mo of hiding Luo Shuyan, calling him shameless and forcing him to hand her over.
Lin Mo could not help but clench his fists, and veins on his forehead were throbbing.
He could obviously kick these two things out without any effort, but because they were Luo Shuyan's father and mother, he could not fight with them at all.
Even though Yancun has no rules or etiquette, it is unreasonable for a prospective son-in-law to hit his father-in-law and mother-in-law.
Yu Xiaofang was furious. Lin Mo wanted to be their son-in-law, but he, Yu Xiaofang, didn't want to. Yu Xiaofang picked up a long broom and chased after Uncle Luo, beating him up all over the place, cursing and beating him. Uncle Luo fled in panic, and the scene was in chaos. Finally, he took advantage of the chaos to drive them away.
Yu Xiaofang said angrily, "Cousin, if you don't give this piece of trash a good beating and eliminate the trouble in the future, you and Sister Shuyan will never have a good life together in the future."
In fact, he was tempted to persuade his cousin to give up the marriage. But he couldn't say it, because Sister Shuyan was such a good person.
If her cousin gave up on her, her life would be over!
Lin Mo's eyes were heavy. How could he not know this truth? At worst, he could just fight them and see who died first!
