The fact that my brother-in-law is willing to give them such good fruits to eat is enough to show how much he values them.
Thinking about the expressions of his elder brother and sister-in-law, Li Song felt sad.
It's a pity that the grocery store is occupied by his eldest brother and his wife. He is just a handyman now and can't even give his eldest brother-in-law a discount.
Thinking of this, Li Song lowered his head in shame again.
After watching the two finish eating, Lin Heng asked Li Song to pack the food and calculate the money, while he took Lin Wan aside to talk.
When Lin Wan saw her elder brother's attitude, she knew that he had something important to tell her.
Puzzled, "Brother, what happened?"
Lin Heng glanced at his busy brother-in-law and said loudly, "It's nothing. Things have been a little bit unstable recently. Buy some more food when you are free."
Then he whispered to Lin Wan, "If one day we want to leave Lin'an County and live somewhere else, will you come with us?"
Lin Wan was shocked: "Brother, where are you going? Why are you leaving?"
"I don't know. It hasn't been decided yet. But it's been dry for two years. You know how much food prices have risen recently. If it doesn't rain, no one will be able to survive."
Lin Wan had been smart since she was young, and she immediately understood that something big must have happened.
Otherwise, who would be willing to leave the place where they have lived all their lives and go to an unknown place to make a living?
But she also knew the character of her family members, so she didn't say much.
Lin Wan glanced at Li Song and said, "Of course I want to be with my mother and elder brother, but you also know that my husband has always been filial and may not be able to leave his parents-in-law."
Lin Heng also understood his brother-in-law's personality and knew that this matter would most likely not succeed.
But I hope the little bit of ingredients he added today will have some effect.
Lin Heng sighed, "It won't hurt to prepare more food. We'll let you know when we really need to leave."
"Okay, I understand, brother." Lin Wan replied with tears in her eyes.
After this departure, they don’t know if they will ever see each other again in this life.
The two chatted for a while, and seeing that Li Song had packed all his things, Lin Heng put the silver on the counter, said goodbye to the two and left.
Li Song couldn't be the owner of a grocery store, so he could only accept Lin Heng's money with a blushing face.
Fortunately, I weighed a little more when I weighed things for my brother-in-law, so I don’t think my brother and sister-in-law would notice.
Turning around, he saw his wife’s eyes were red, and he asked her what was wrong with concern.
Lin Wan blinked and said to Li Song, "It's nothing. Just now, my elder brother said that Xiao Ke'er is much better now. I am happy."
Li Song didn't understand the situation, but he was happy for his niece Lin Ke.
Lin Wan looked at her husband's silly look and sighed softly.
He then said, "Brother Gang also said that the price of food has increased again in the past two days, so he asked us to stock up more food."
"You know, we can't make the decision at home. I'm afraid my elder brother and his wife won't agree to this."
"Alas!" they both lamented at the same time.
Suddenly, Lin Wan had an idea: "I still have a few taels of private money, which I earned from embroidery work. How about I give it to my eldest brother and ask him to buy food for us, and then hide it for emergency use."
Li Song's eyes lit up after hearing this: "This is a good idea. If we really run out of food, given the temperament of my eldest brother and his wife, our family will definitely not get any food. We should also make some plans for ourselves."
Then he rummaged around in a corner of the grocery store and took out a dime, which was worth about two taels.
He said a little ashamedly: "I, I have only secretly saved this little money over the years..."
When Lin Wan saw the silver that Li Song took out, she was even more shocked than when she saw the fruit given by her elder brother.
Who would have thought that her husband could save up these two taels of silver right under the nose of Zhou Ba Pi's sister-in-law!
It really made her look at him in a new light.
