Chapter 7 Chapter 7 Grab your things and let’s go!
The people in the village sensed that something was wrong in the Lin family's atmosphere, and they all said, "It's late, we have to go to the fields." The moment they finished speaking, everyone dispersed, and the yard became much emptier.
At some point, Lin Chunxing's illness had healed, and she stood quietly behind Lin Chuntao.
Thinking that the Zhang family had taken a fancy to Lin Xian'er, Tian's anger was like a raging fire, and all her resentment fell on Lin Chuntao.
Seeing that Tian was hiding her anger, the Lin family members in the yard slowly looked at Lin Chuntao and Lin Chunxing.
Lin Chuntao stood straight with her head held high, not afraid of their scrutiny at all.
Qian Shi was not very clear about the specific situation of Lin Chuntao and the others. She was not sure whether they were sick or not. She turned around and questioned Lin Changhe: "Lin Changhe? Your daughter has epilepsy?"
Lin Changhe was bewildered. "No... I don't know. I only saw the attack today."
Looking at Lin Changhe's expression, Qian finally understood that this was a play performed by Lin Chunxing and Lin Chuntao.
Meeting Lin Chuntao's fearless gaze, she said in a deep voice, "Lin Chuntao, you're teaching my sister to destroy her own reputation. Do you want her to never marry? How could you even think of such a despicable trick?"
Lin Chuntao chuckled. "What dirty trick? My sister is just sick. If she has trouble getting married in the future, I'll take care of her. You don't need to worry about her!"
"You raise it, what do you use to raise it?"
"What do I have to do with you? Who do you think you are?"
"You should go and discuss your aunt's marriage with grandma. After all, they can offer a betrothal gift of 28 taels. Let me think about it, if these 28 taels come in, the marriages of several of my cousins won't be a problem! You really solved a big problem for grandpa, grandma, and uncles. You will definitely be a hero of the Lin family in the future!"
As Tian listened to Lin Chuntao's chatter, the anger in her heart grew more and more intense.
But the most important thing now is to resolve Lin Xianer's problem. She went to Muramasa's house in a hurry with a lot of anger in her heart.
The old couple Muramasa were just about to lock the door and go downstairs, but they stopped when they saw the old lady coming.
"Brother and sister-in-law, are you going to the fields?"
"I'm going to pull some weeds." Sun saw that her face was not right and asked, "Who pissed you off?"
Tian waved her hand and said, "It's a long story. I just came to ask, big brother, if Chuntao's marriage certificate can be changed?"
Lincunzheng was stunned: "What to change?"
Tian said shamelessly: "Just change Chuntao to Xianer."
"We originally wanted Xian'er to marry someone to stay at home, but who knew that Chuntao would go and get someone without even saying a word."
Sun frowned and said, "Sister-in-law, if you ask me, it would be a good idea for Chuntao to marry someone. I remember she is two years older than Xian'er, and she is already nineteen and still single."
Tian curled her lips and said, "I found it for her. Who knew she would do such a thing?"
Sun said, "That's fine. You're definitely looking for a good family anyway. Chuntao's matter has already been settled, so let's give it to Xian'er, it's the same!"
Tian hated Sun for pretending to be ignorant even though she knew the truth, but she couldn't say it directly.
Muramasa also advised: "The marriage certificate is kept by the government, we can't change it. Sister-in-law, you should find another family for Xian'er."
"If you really want to keep Xian'er at home, I'll call you in the next batch. You can also recruit another one, but you have to make it clear in advance that this one won't be able to divide the twelve acres of land."
They talked about Lin Xian'er's marriage yesterday. The expressions of her sons were still lingering in her mind. She felt a little relieved when she heard that they could get 12 acres of land. If there was no land, Xian'er would be a thorn in the eyes of her brothers if she stayed at home.
The marriage certificate could not be changed, and Tian hated Lin Chuntao very much.
When she returned from Muramasa's house, everyone was still in the yard working in the fields.
Tian rushed into the yard, pointed at Lin Chuntao and yelled, "Get out! You and you! You! All of you, get out!"
Lin Chuntao looked at Tian with a fearless expression: "You can go, but let me be clear, if we leave through this door, will we have nothing to do with your Lin family in the future?"
"Yes! Get out of here, get out now! You unlucky star! You ungrateful bastard!"
The old lady yelled in frustration. Lin Chuntao looked at Lin Changhe and the old man and said, "Dad! Grandpa, did you hear what grandma said?"
Lin Changhe and the old man were both silent. Lin Chuntao said, "You are silent. Do you also agree that we should get out of this house? If so, we can leave now, but I will go to find Muramasa. We want to sign a document. From now on, we have nothing to do with you. Don't look for us. Even if we are chewing tree bark outside, we will never set foot in your house!"
The old man didn't expect Lin Chuntao to dare to speak to him like that. If he didn't teach them a lesson, they would be like people who didn't know how high the sky is and how thick the earth is!
He waved his hand, "Alright! Go find Muramasa and sign the agreement!"
After hearing what the old man said, Lin Chuntao called Pei Ying: "Go back to the house and get your things. Let's go!"
Lin Changhe was caught off guard by all this. He hadn't yet recovered from Chun Xing's illness, so why was he asked to get out?
"Where are you going to live?"
Lin Chunxing followed behind Lin Chuntao and glared at Lin Changhe: "Don't worry about us sleeping in the cave. Just watch the widow give birth to a son for you!"
"you……"
Pei Ying packed up his things and took down the pot and rice. Lin Chunxing folded up the bed sheet and the quilt on the straw in the shop. Lin Chunxing also took out the copper coins hidden in the straw and asked Chunxing to give her the bed sheet so that she could hide the copper coins.
Pei Ying took the pot and rice.
When the people in Lao Lin's family saw them coming out with things, including iron pots and sacks, their eyes widened.
Tian pointed at them and said, "Put down my things. You are not allowed to take even a single thread from this house."
"Old lady, what I hold in my hand is my own thing!" Pei Ying's tone was cold, and she met his terrifying eyes. But Tian thought of her four sons and started to act rashly: "Who can prove that this is yours?"
Pei Ying looked at her, "The village chief and the village head can both prove it."
Lin Chuntao walked up to Pei Ying and stared at the old lady. "What we took was what my mother brought when she got married. There were originally two sets, but you snatched one away. Think of it as covering your coffin when the time comes! We're only taking this one."
Tian was so angry that she felt dizzy and staggered, clutching her chest. Lin Chuntao pretended not to see anything and said in a deep voice, "Let's go."
The three sisters followed Lin Chuntao, and Pei Ying followed behind. He held the pot and rice in one hand, and then took out a butcher knife from his bag. The blade was shiny!
Lin Changhe was so scared that he took a few steps back. The people in the yard also gasped. Before he knew it, Lin Chuntao and the others had already left the yard.
Lin Jiawang from the eldest wife's house was filled with shock. "Mom, is that bitch Chuntao really going to break off relations with us?"
Zhang snorted coldly, "If they sever their ties, where will they live? What will they eat? Just wait and see, they might not even make it to tomorrow morning to come back!"
Lin Jiawang uttered an "oh," frowning slightly before adding, "Didn't Chuntao say she wanted to go find Grandfather to sign a written agreement?"
Zhang rolled her eyes at her son in anger, "Do you think your great-grandfather would sign a document just because she asked him to?"
"Stop standing there and do what you need to do."

The old couple Muramasa arrived at the fields later, and those who arrived earlier were all discussing the in-laws that Qian had found for Lin Chunxing.
Some people gloated over the misfortune, "Now we're going to have a good show. I think that matchmaker is not easy to deal with. She might come back in two or three days."
"Who are you talking about?"
The woman turned around and looked over. Seeing that it was Sun, she felt a little embarrassed to continue gossiping, so she changed the subject and said, "Aunt, we are talking about Chuntao and her sisters."
"What happened to them?"
"Today, someone came to propose marriage to Chun Xing, but she convulsed and fell to the ground. Then the betrothal partner took a fancy to Xian Er and was willing to add an extra eight taels of silver as a betrothal gift."
When the woman finished speaking, Sun's eyes widened. "Is it this morning?"
"Yes, Auntie, you don't know, Third Auntie doesn't want to marry Xian'er. She said Xian'er is young and wants to stay for a few more years, but Xian'er is three years older than Chunxing."
Sun suddenly realized that Tian had come to ask if Chuntao's marriage certificate could be exchanged for Xian'er's because someone had set their eyes on Lin Xian'er?
But isn't this a good thing? Why is Tian so angry that she looks like she's going to die?
"Whose betrothal gift is this? It's such a generous gift! We can't even save up more than twenty taels in years!"
"I heard from the matchmaker that this family is from the outskirts of the county town, and the man works as an accountant in the city. Auntie, you don't know that the man looks about the same age as Lin Lao San."
Upon hearing this, Sun exclaimed, "Who introduced this family to me?"
"Look for the wife that Lin Lao San just married. Who else could it be?"
A woman in the fields below sighed, "They say children without mothers are pitiful. If Xu Xiu were still alive, she wouldn't let others mistreat her daughter like this."
The women in the fields were talking to each other as they worked.
Lin Chuntao brought her sisters and quilts to find Muramasa. Fortunately, there were not many people in the village, but there were many people in the fields.
"Chun Tao, what are you doing? Why are you still holding your bedding?"
Lin Chuntao smiled and replied loudly, "We were kicked out of the house by our grandparents and our biological father. They want to sever ties with us. I came to ask Grandpa Muramasa to go back and help us sign a document."
"What?"
"Kicked out? Why..."
The man exclaimed and wanted to ask why, but someone next to him pulled his sleeve and said, "Why else? The marriage proposal didn't work out, so you dislike Chun Xing because she's sick."
Lin Chuntao frowned slightly. She was a little anxious in handling this matter. She didn't care about her reputation, but she had never communicated with Chunxing. She just told Chunxing the method and Chunxing did it. Now everyone is saying that Chunxing is sick. She wondered if she would be unhappy.
Thinking about this, Lin Chuntao looked at Chun Xing behind her, only to see that her expression was calm.
Seeing Lin Chuntao's worried look, Lin Chunxing smiled at her.
Others said she was sick, but she wasn't really sick and wouldn't lose any weight, but marrying an old widower like that would ruin her life. Let others say whatever they wanted, she didn't care.
