Chapter 4 Chapter 4 The presence of Bacillus cirrhosae has been detected ten miles from the host, please...
There is a square table in the main room.
When Lin Chuntao went in, a family of more than a dozen people had already sat around the table, preparing to eat.
Seeing Lin Chuntao come in with a bowl, everyone had different expressions. Lin Changhe frowned and asked her, "What are you doing here? Why don't you go over to eat?"
Lin Chuntao glanced at Lin Changhe indifferently, without answering, just looking at the things on the table.
The old lady was already unhappy, and now she was even more angry when she saw her.
"What are you doing here?"
Lin Chuntao glanced at the old lady with a smile and replied, "Come and see what delicious food you have."
At this time, no one was on guard. Lin Chuntao walked sideways behind everyone's chairs and saw a plate of stacked meat patties, stir-fried vegetables, stir-fried melon slices, and a bowl of beans cooked in soup on the table. In the colander next to it was a golden cornmeal bun with a very smooth surface, which was obviously made of fine flour.
The cousins stared at the plate of meat patties. Lin Chuntao glanced at it and estimated that everyone at the table should have one piece, as it was cut according to the number of people.
She was circling behind the adults, her eyes fixed on the corn buns, which made Zhang nervous. She had a strong feeling that Lin Chuntao would snatch away the half basket of corn buns. She was mentally prepared, but she saw Lin Chuntao plunge her chopsticks into the meat patties, pick up five or six pieces, and then run away.
After rushing into the next room and quickly bolting the door, outside were the screams of the aunt and the old lady's scolding, and the angry curse of Old Man Lin scolding Lin Changhe for his poor parenting.
Seeing Lin Chuntao's series of actions, Lin Chunxing asked, "Sister, what's wrong?"
Lin Chuntao didn't answer, but just smiled and said, "Come on, eat meat pie!"
As she said that, she gave one piece to each of her three sisters and Pei Ying. She still had one and a half pieces left, which she kept in her own bowl.
Lin Chuntao didn’t think the meat pie was very delicious, but it was meat after all, and she and her sisters hadn’t eaten a piece of meat in several years.
The cousins also looked at it with envy, pursed their lips, and hoped in their hearts that Lin Chuntao would share some with them.
But Lin Chuntao just smiled and said: "Sisters, ask your mother to save some for you next time. Since I don't have a mother, I can only grab some to eat, and I can't share it with my sisters."
Several cousins felt a little resentful. Their mother would only give things like meat patties to their brothers and sisters, so how could they get a chance?
If they tried to snatch it, they would definitely be beaten.
They are not as good as Lin Chuntao and the others. They don’t have mothers, so it’s okay if they are robbed.
The three sisters looked at the meat pie in the bowl and were shocked. Pei Ying didn't expect that Lin Chuntao would grab the meat pie and still have his share.
There was constant knocking on the door and shouting outside.
"Lin Chuntao! You bitch, open the door for me! Are you guys eating those meat patties too? Bring them out to me!"
Listening to the old lady's scolding, Lin Chuntao took a bite of the meat pie. As expected, it was something she had snatched away; it actually tasted quite fragrant.
She looked at Pei Ying and Lin Chunxing. They were not eating, but just looking at her quietly. She frowned.
"Hurry up and eat, do you want to return it?"
After the voice fell, several people picked up the meat patties and fed them into their mouths.
In fact, one piece only takes three or four bites. It is a very small piece. You can finish it in one bite if you order it in big bites.
After eating the meat pie, Lin Chuntao didn't open the door. Although the buckwheat bun was not delicious, it was filling. The wild vegetables were also natural vegetables, and the potatoes were also plain potatoes, so they were all edible.
The scolding outside never stopped. The old lady cursed her for eating something that would cause her intestines to rot, but Lin Chuntao was immune to it.
When the old lady returned to the table, the bamboo plate containing the meat patties was empty, and her two grandsons were still grabbing her and crying.
"Grandma! I want meat pie! I want meat pie!"
Tian looked at the people at the table and saw that the fourth son's wife, the second son's wife, and Qian all had grease on their lips. She was immediately furious and glared at them viciously.
But after years of living together, the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law have become thick-skinned and fearless.
The child was making a lot of noise, and then the old lady said, "Don't cry, eat first, and then I'll boil eggs for you two."
Lin Xian'er pouted and said, "Mom, Jiabao and I didn't get to eat the meat pie either."
The old lady was furious because she didn't get to eat it either.
But it was her daughter who was speaking, so she could only muffle her response: "I'll cook one for each of you who didn't get a cake."
Those who can eat eggs are happy, but those who want to eat eggs after eating meat pie are in a bad mood.
Uncle Lin Changhai looked at Lin Changhe and said, "Third brother, Chuntao is like this, you have to teach her well."
Lin Changhe was also helpless. "How can I teach her? She's so old now and has a husband. Can I really hit her?"
"I would like to give her away, but I have nothing. What can I give her?"
Zhang frowned slightly. "Third brother, Chuntao is just a girl. How could she expect a betrothal gift when she gets married? Now she's getting married like this, without asking for anything. And she even wants you to give her something? No family in this village would give something to their daughters."
Lin Changhe suddenly realized, "Yes, I was fooled by this damn girl!"
Miao Feng from the fifth room laughed when he heard this, "Third brother, do you understand now? Do you want to kick Chuntao out directly?"
Lin Changhe fell silent. Qian glanced at Miao and said, "Fifth brother's wife is really good at talking. How will the people in the village view your third brother if you kick him out?"
Everyone in the room had their own thoughts. Lin Chuntao had already eaten and came out from the next room.
She stood at the door and peeked into the house. She met her uncle's eyes and asked with a smile, "Uncle, haven't you finished eating yet?"
Lin Changhai looked at her and found that she looked neither like the third brother nor like his dead mother.
He is a bit like Lin Lao Er, a scoundrel who throws a tantrum, fights and grabs!
He is as shameless as the second brother. He just snatched the meat pie and now he can come over and talk to me with a smile.
Lin Changhai didn't bother to pay attention to her.
Lin Changhe looked at her like that and scolded her with a sullen face: "Lin Chuntao, who taught you to steal things?"
Lin Chuntao looked at her original father and felt that it was a little ridiculous. "Dad, it's a little ridiculous for you to ask this question. Stealing other people's things is called stealing, but how can eating something from your own home be called stealing?"
"I want not only food but also new clothes."
"Dad, do you know when the clothes I'm wearing were made? The year before my mother died, we haven't made clothes since she passed away. My cousins all have my mother to worry about, and she can only make a set every two years. What about us?"
"You can't bully us for not having a mother just because others do, right?"
Lin Chuntao finished her words without waiting for Lin Changhe to reply. She sighed, "If you don't have a backer, you have to find a way."
After saying this, he walked away slowly.
Pei Ying, Lin Chunxing and others followed her.
There was no one around, so Lin Chuntao told Pei Ying, "If anyone asks about that pot and rice, just tell them it's yours."
Pei Ying understood what Lin Chuntao meant.
"Yeah, I know."
After dinner, everyone went to the yard to enjoy the cool air.
Lin Changhe watched the old lady go to the backyard, and he followed her stealthily.
"Mom, I have to separate Chuntao, otherwise I won't be at ease."
The old lady frowned, looking unhappy.
Lin Changhe continued, "Dingxiang is pregnant with a son. If that crazy girl Chuntao pushes me with evil intentions, how am I going to survive?"
"She dares?"
"Why wouldn't she dare? Look at her like this at night. I think she just doesn't want anyone to have a good time."
The old lady's eyes moved slightly. Lin Chuntao might not have dared to do it before, but after tonight, she was not sure anymore.
Looking at Lin Changhe again, he had a tearful face: "Mom, please have pity on me. My eldest brother, second brother, fourth brother, and fifth brother all have several sons, but I don't have any. Just give her a few pounds of food and throw a chicken to her, and let her move to that shabby house at the foot of the mountain. Don't let her harm me."
After all, he was her son, so the old lady had no choice but to say, "Let's talk about it tomorrow."
"Why after tomorrow?"
Lin Changhe asked again, but the old lady rolled her eyes and ignored him.
Now even Lin Duoer can get engaged in two years. The old lady thinks that Lin Changhe has shit in his head if he separates them at this time.
Furthermore, she wanted to go to Muramasa and ask if the marriage certificate could be changed to change Lin Chuntao to Xian'er.
She had to find a way to keep her daughter at home.
*
Lin Chuntao was extremely tired that day. Even though the bed was not comfortable enough, she fell asleep soon after lying down.
At one o'clock in the morning, the moon was still hanging on the top of the sky.
The first rooster crowed outside the house.
Then Lin Chuntao heard a string of cold words.
"Hello, host. The check-in system has been activated. We have detected the presence of cyanobacteria ten miles away from you. Please proceed."
"Hello, host. The check-in system has been activated. We have detected the presence of cyanobacteria ten miles away from you. Please proceed."
“…”
Lin Chuntao was awakened by the broadcast and was in a daze for a long time. She signed in...system?
She is very familiar with this, as it often appears in novels. Is this God's compensation to her?
Her golden finger came late but it arrived.
"Will I get money after signing in?"
After Lin Chuntao asked, she only received a cold answer: "No."
Perhaps because she was too frustrated, the system added: "But the host can get points after signing in at the designated location, and the points can be exchanged for things."
"Show me what I can exchange for."
"Because the host has zero points, the panel cannot be viewed. Please go there as soon as possible."
Lin Chuntao looked at the direction of the arrow in front of her, stretched, and sat up.
Fly legs are also meat, and the check-in cannot be exchanged for money immediately, but the mushrooms can be carried away and sold for money. This place is not far from the county town.
Lin Chuntao sat up and thought that since the Lin family did not reject the Zhang family, the Zhang family would come to propose marriage as agreed today.
What if the Zhang family comes before she returns from the mountains? Wouldn’t it be very dangerous for her sisters at home?
Thinking of this, she pushed Lin Chunxing next to her.
Lin Chunxing woke up in a daze and asked in a low voice, "What's wrong, sister?"
"Wake up my sister, let's go pick mushrooms."
Lin Chunxing nodded, and Lin Chuntao tiptoed over and called Pei Ying.
Pei Ying sat up suddenly after being pushed. Lin Chuntao whispered, "It's me, Lin Chuntao."
"We're going into the mountains to pick mushrooms. Do you want to come?"
"Now?"
"Um."
Pei Ying nodded, "I'll go."
Lin Chuntao whispered, "We're not home, so let's hide the pot and the rice in the straw."
"I hid it last night."
After Pei Ying got up, Lin Chunxing also woke up Chunhe and Duoer. They tiptoed downstairs, put on their backpacks, and went out to the mountain.
