Chapter 88 Unmoved
In the past, because Luo Shuyan was in the hands of Qi family, Lin Mo was afraid to act rashly and had to swallow his anger in front of Qi family. Today, he finally got a chance to let out a sigh of relief.
Yu Xiaofang clapped his hands and laughed: "What a joy!"
Lin Mo also felt very happy.
Lin Mo also knew that Luo Shuyan would appear in front of everyone today. Originally, he planned to go with Yu Xiaofang to help prepare the ground and to be there to maintain order, but after Zhao Liya and the others discussed it, they told him not to go.
It would be best if he pretended to know nothing.
If he went, it would be clear that they all colluded to trick the Luo couple, which would be morally untenable. Since this thing has been done, it is natural to do it as perfectly as possible, and it is best not to give anyone any handle, so as not to lose anything.
Otherwise, it would be too frustrating that Luo Shuyan was the one who suffered the most injustice, but the unscrupulous and cruel couple gained her sympathy.
If Lin Mo and the others didn't go, this matter would simply be that the Zhao family took advantage of the opportunity and bought back Luo Shuyan. Even if there were people like the Qi family who were suspicious, their suspicions would be limited.
More importantly, even if Lin Mo and the others don't go, the Zhao family can handle it with ease.
Lin Mo thought about it and felt that it made sense, so he decided to go into the city with Yu Xiaofang today.
If he were in the village, someone would definitely come and tell him the moment Luo Shuyan showed up. It would be awkward for him to go there, and it would be awkward for him not to go there either, so he simply went to the city. He had only just returned a short time ago.
Sure enough, as soon as he returned home, four groups of people came to his house before Qi to talk to him about Shu Yan.
His reaction was naturally shock at first, then excitement, surprise and joy. If Qi hadn't come, he would have gone to the Zhao family right now.
Even though he had heard about today's situation from four groups of people, he still felt a little uneasy. He wanted to see her with his own eyes and hear her say "It's okay!"
Today, they went to the city to buy a lot of meat, so Lin Mo asked Yu Xiaofang to take most of it and send it to the Zhao family.
Since he hadn't gone into the mountains to hunt in the past few days, he specially bought some meat to celebrate.
Yu Xiaofang said with a smile: "Why not bring them all with you? It would be great if we could have dinner at Zhao's house tonight! Anyway, we have already talked about this matter, there is no need to hide it. From now on, when we come back from hunting, we can just go to Zhao's house for dinner! Sister Shuyan's cooking skills are so good..."
Just thinking about it makes me greedy and miss it.
Lin Mo thought about it and thought it was a good idea. "Then take them all!"
"Okay!"
The two men carried the meat and went to Zhao's house without any reservation. Even the villagers they met on the road would ask them, "Are you going to Zhao's house?"
So Lin Mo nodded: "Yeah!"
Everyone showed an expression of understanding, it was natural to go.
Luo Shuyan's good days are coming soon!
After all, the Zhao family was much more approachable than the Qi family's Luo Lao Da and his wife. As long as Lin Mo was willing to pay some money and talk things over, the Zhao family might not be unwilling to give Lin Mo the indenture. Lin Mo could definitely come up with dozens or even hundreds of taels of silver.
When Lin Mo and Yu Xiaofang arrived at the Zhao residence, Zhao Liya and the others weren't surprised at all. Amidst the pleasantries and jokes, they explained today's events. Lin Mo bowed to the Zhao family in thanks, letting Zhao Xiang support him with a smile.
"We didn't do anything, there's no need to do this!"
In fact, everything is just going with the flow and lending a hand.
Lin Mo said solemnly, "But this matter is a rebirth of kindness for us. Uncle Zhao, if you need anything in the future, just give me your instructions. I will go through fire and water for you without hesitation."
"Stop talking like that!"
Zhao Xiang said hurriedly.
Zhao Liya smiled and said, "My father is right. Brother Lin, there's no need to be so formal. We're all friends from now on, and it's only natural for friends to help each other. There's no need to talk about 'favors' as serious as that. Since you're here, why don't you stay home for dinner tonight? We'll celebrate properly!"
Yu Xiaofang said with a smile, "Okay, okay, we thought so too. Look, we've brought the dishes. In the future, maybe you'll come over often to eat for free. Don't be disgusted, hehe!"
Lin Mo glanced at him with disdain.
But the Zhao family all laughed.
"Why would I dislike it? More people is better, it's more lively!"
"Of course not!"
"It's us who are taking advantage of you. Shuyan's cooking skills are amazing. No one who has tasted it will forget it!"
Everyone laughed: "Yes, yes!"
Lin Mo and Luo Shuyan looked at each other. Luo Shuyan's face flushed and she pursed her lips and smiled, saying, "I'm going to cook!" After saying that, she turned around and left quickly.
Mrs. Deng and the others were amused and hurried to help. This child must be embarrassed!
Lin Mo brought a piece of pork belly, a piece of pork ribs, a whole leg of lamb, tofu, winter bamboo shoots, etc. today.
Zhao Liya and the others had originally planned to celebrate today, so they didn't have time to buy meat. However, they killed a chicken, a duck, and several eels.
Adding what Lin Mo brought, it can be said to be very rich.
Zhao Liya smiled and said, "It's still early, why not just cook it all? If we can't finish it tonight, we can still eat more tomorrow. We might as well invite Brother Lin and Brother Xiaofang to come for lunch tomorrow, it will be lively!"
Deng smiled and said, "That's fine. Anyway, we can stay here in this weather."
If you make it today, you won’t have to go through so much trouble tomorrow at noon.
Then everyone got busy, slaughtering chickens and ducks, killing eels, chopping lamb legs, chopping ribs, and cutting pork belly.
The pork belly is braised; we have betel taro at home, so we can make steamed pork ribs with betel taro; the lamb shanks are naturally stewed with tofu, winter bamboo shoots, and sprinkled with cilantro and garlic sprouts for a particularly delicious flavor. The chicken is chopped and stir-fried, then braised; the duck is stewed in soup with soaked mushrooms; and the yellow eel is stir-fried with shredded eel.
Make another serving of stir-fried cabbage and you’re done.
Zhao Liya explained it briefly, and Luo Shuyan understood it immediately. She quickly prepared various dishes and arranged the steaming, boiling, and stewing on the stove and finally stir-fried the dishes.
When the dishes were served steaming hot, the aroma was so tempting that it made people salivate. Tonight's celebration was very exciting and made people happy from the bottom of their hearts.
Everyone sat around the table and congratulated Luo Shuyan on her new life. After bad times have passed, good times will come. From now on, only good luck and good fortune will remain.
Luo Shuyan's eyes were slightly red as she thanked him solemnly.
She secretly said in her heart that from now on, she had new relatives.
The kind of relatives who are not relatives but are better than relatives.
The dishes on the table were all extremely delicious. Everyone was extremely satisfied with the meal and praised it endlessly. Everyone looked at Lin Mo with a mixture of teasing and envy: What a treat!
Since Luo Shuyan had already appeared in public, she naturally did not hide it. The next day, she went to the fields to work with Qu Guafu and others.
Once the land is prepared, it's time to plant the seeds. With proper care, the crops can be harvested and sold in less than two months.
Boss Luo and Qi were angry and anxious, but there was nothing they could do.
