Meng Jiusi was still hesitating.
He was used to giving, and suddenly he got such a precious thing. He was completely confused and didn't know what to do.
"It's settled!" Lin Zhao saw the character flaws in his fourth brother and felt a little uncomfortable. He had never been loved unconditionally.
Poor fourth brother.
Damn human traffickers!
"Fourth brother, when will you get your feet treated?" She changed the subject.
Meng Jiusi said: "Tonight."
"The kerosene lamp is too dim. I'll get you some candles at night."
"good."
Seeing his sister frowning as she swatted mosquitoes, Meng Jiusi said, "...I dried some mosquito repellent herbs. Can you take some back later? Put some in a piece of cloth and carry it with you to keep away mosquitoes."
"Does it really work?" Lin Zhao's eyes lit up.
She needs it.
The four cubs also need it.
She and her four children have been in trouble ever since the mosquito repellent bag lost its effectiveness.
Gu Chenghuai doesn't attract mosquitoes. I don't know if it's because his muscles are too hard for mosquitoes to bite him.
"It works." Meng Jiusi said firmly.
When talking about professionalism, he looks confident.
"Then I want it. Your three nephews and one niece also need it." Lin Zhao didn't be polite to his brother.
Thinking of her fourth brother's two children, she hesitated for a moment and asked, "Fourth brother, is it okay for my two nephews to live with their biological mother?"
Meng Jiusi was silent, a hint of worry flashed in his eyes.
To put it nicely, my ex-wife is gentle, but to put it bluntly, she is cowardly. Her family is full of evil intentions, so it's hard to say what will happen now that he's gone.
Lin Zhao saw something and said, "Fourth brother, don't worry too much. I will find a way to find out the news about my two nephews. If they are not doing well, I will bring them here."
It is very dangerous for a girl to take a long-distance bus. Meng Jiusi was afraid that his sister would get into an accident, so he shook his head and said, "They are with their biological mother, so they should be fine."
At least I don’t have to worry about food and drink.
He kept a lot of money.
Lin Zhao was half-believing and half-doubting.
It doesn't look very reliable.
She frowned slightly. No, Fourth Sister-in-law wouldn't be able to figure it out either! ? Don't.
Never mind, she would find out somehow.
"Fourth brother, where is your home?"
Meng Jiusi avoided the question and said, "You should leave. It will be bad for you if someone sees you."
No one in the Harvest Brigade knew that they were brother and sister, and if they saw them, they might spread all kinds of nonsense.
"I don't want to. You tell me first." Lin Zhao used the same method she used to pester her eldest, second, and third brothers to coax her fourth brother.
The three brothers of the Lin family can't stand hearing their sister act coquettishly since they were young, let alone Lin Xiaosi, who is seeing his sister act coquettishly with him for the first time.
Meng Jiusi's brows softened.
Before his brain could work, he blurted out a string of addresses.
After saying this, he covered his face blankly.
Then his face became serious.
"Zhao Zhao, it's very dangerous for a little girl to ride in a car, especially a pretty one. Don't think you are fearless just because you are strong. It's really dangerous."
Meng Jiusi had heard of more than one case of young girls being abducted in the capital. Places like train stations are full of all kinds of people, and who knows who would be willing to kidnap someone with a smile on their face and an honest look.
"I'm not stupid. If I went there, I would definitely call for help." Lin Zhao pretended to be unhappy.
Meng Jiusi was nervous and at a loss, "I...I..."
I wanted to comfort my sister but I was tongue-tied and couldn't say a single nice word. I bit the flesh in my mouth in a hurry and gasped in pain.
"Fourth brother?" Lin Zhao asked worriedly, "Did you bite your mouth? Are you okay?"
Of course it hurt when he was bitten, but... when Meng Jiusi met his sister's concerned eyes, he didn't feel that painful anymore.
He waved his hand, "It's okay."
When you lick it with the tip of your tongue, you can taste a light fishy and salty taste in your mouth.
Bitten.
Seeing that his sister was teasing him deliberately, Meng Jiusi's calm black eyes showed helplessness.
After his mouth stopped hurting so much, his tone became more serious.
"It's not safe for young girls to ride in a car. The criminals who traffic women and children come in groups and have many tricks. You should never travel far alone."
Lin Zhao felt a little warm in her heart, but her face showed helplessness.
"I know. Didn't I tell you that I would call someone when I go away?"
Meng Jiusi thought of the Lin family's brothers, and his tense expression finally relaxed.
"Just be aware of this. I don't want you to get into any accidents."
Just a few days after recognizing his sister, he has already begun to get closer to the three brothers of the Lin family.
Lin Zhao smiled.
"Fourth brother, I told my uncle about finding you. He was very happy. He asked me to bring you some things. I'll ask Cheng Huai to bring them to you after dark."
Meng Jiusi really lacked everything. After thinking for a while, he didn't bother to be polite with his sister and said embarrassedly, "Thank you for your help."
"What's the big deal? We are a family." Lin Zhao emphasized softly.
"Don't feel any psychological burden, Fourth Brother. Dad said that we brothers and sisters are the closest people in this world. No matter what happens, we can be trusted and relied upon.
I am your sister, you really don't have to say thank you to me every time. I am very happy to have the opportunity to take care of your fourth brother. "
She looked at Meng Jiusi with a serious look in her eyes, "I am very happy that Fourth Brother can find his way home and come back to us."
Because of his rough experiences since childhood, Meng Jiusi is less used to accepting kindness than malice from others.
Even though he kept murmuring in his heart that he was no longer the "pitiful bastard" who could be stepped on by anyone, he had a father, a mother, an older brother, a younger sister, and many nephews... he still felt uncomfortable and even felt so helpless that he wanted to escape.
He was silent with his eyes lowered, and Lin Zhao could not read his emotions.
She picked up the sharp stone that Meng Jiusi used to cut grass for pigs, bent down and started cutting grass for the pigs. Of course, people who came to receive education were not qualified to receive work tools.
Lin Zhao was a little unfamiliar with the cutting movements at first. After all, she hadn't worked since she married Gu Chenghuai. Fortunately, she still had muscle memory and soon became familiar with it.
Please help me cut enough fat quickly so that my fourth brother can go back and get his feet treated.
"Fourth brother, you can slowly get used to us. There's no rush. Our father told me not to push you."
Lin Heling is very meticulous and has met many people. He knows what kind of person Xiao Si is just by meeting him once.
He specifically told Zhaozhao and his siblings to take it slow.
"...Dad said that?" Meng Jiusi came back to his senses and saw his sister helping him collect grass for pigs. He hurriedly tried to take back the "small tool" in her hand.
"Yes." Lin Zhao dodged to the side and stuffed the cut pig grass into the basket. "Dad specifically told us to do that."
Seeing that the fourth brother was not reluctant to hear about the Lin family, she continued, "In the past twenty years, my brothers and I have always had extra supplies from our parents. We still have a room for you. Your room has everything. Dad makes new clothes for you every year. Your wardrobe... is full of clothes, thick and thin, from childhood to adulthood..."
"Dad said that it was a great pity that he never had the chance to let you wear the clothes he made before." The smile in her eyes deepened, and she said, "I'm going to sort out the clothes I made in the past two years and send them all to you. You wait to receive them."
Lin Heling made the clothes similar to those of the eldest and second oldest brothers, so the clothes were a little smaller, and they were just perfect for Meng Jiusi.
"Oh, by the way, Dad also said that he would make you a new cotton-padded jacket. It snows here in the winter and it's very cold. Oh, yes, I also want to make another one for Grandpa Meng. He raised you and is our Lin family's benefactor. We will repay him to the best of our ability."
Meng Jiusi was deeply moved.
He was concentrating on cutting grass for pigs, and his hands holding the grass were unstable.
His throat rolled, and his voice became a little hoarse, "Zhao Zhao, let Dad make it for you. I have a special status and cannot wear too good clothes. Just give me an old cotton coat."
"This old cotton-padded jacket doesn't keep me warm." Lin Zhao frowned.
She gently comforted her fourth brother, "Don't worry, Dad knows what to do. Use new cotton and sew a few big patches on the outside of the cotton-padded jacket. No one will be able to see it."
Meng Jiusi knew that his sister didn't like to hear him thank her, so he didn't say anything else.
Lin Zhao was very satisfied.
She was strong, and after getting used to it, she cut quickly. She filled the basket and clapped her hands, "It's full, let's go back!"
"Um."
Meng Jiusi was afraid of running into the villagers, so he looked at his sister and asked, "You go first?"
"No." Lin Zhao refused. "I still need to get some mosquito repellent herbs from you. Your three nephews and one niece are almost swollen from mosquito bites!"
She has a physique that attracts mosquitoes, and so do her four cubs.
I can't sleep well at night without a mosquito repellent bag.
"Let your brother-in-law bring it to you at night." Meng Jiusi felt it was too dangerous.
Lin Zhao smiled and said, "It's already this late, no one from the village will come to the foot of the mountain. Don't worry, Fourth Brother, I will be fine. Even if I run into someone, I will have something to say."
She is a military dependent and has a job, so the villagers can use her and are basically willing to give her some face. When she asked for some mosquito repellent herbs, no one said anything.
What it all comes down to is that the madness of the big cities has not yet spread to the countryside.
The Fengshou Brigade is not close to the county, and it is not easy to go there. The members of the brigade are not very clear about what is happening outside. They only vaguely know that some bad elements have been caught in the city and they will be sent to the countryside for education.
Seeing that there were skinny kids among the educated people, many people in the village said it was nonsense.
Only after the captain scolded them did they dare not continue complaining.
Also because of.
The people from the Harvest Team did not bother Meng Jiusi and the others. They simply ignored those who did bad things, and took a few more glances at those who did good things.
Meng Jiusi looked at his sister and sighed softly, "It's really lawless."
"If anyone sees us, you must stay away from me and pretend you don't know me, okay?" he warned me worriedly.
"I know." Lin Zhao picked up the basket full of pig grass and walked forward first. After a few steps, he slowed down and turned back naturally. "Fourth brother, I'll ask your brother-in-law to bring you food tonight. You can sleep later."
The mountain road was difficult to walk on, and Meng Jiusi walked slowly due to his limp.
Noticing that his sister deliberately slowed down her pace, his eyes were filled with tenderness.
"good."
The sun has completely set, the dryness of the day is long gone, and the mountain breeze brings cool breezes.
The brother and sister walked towards the foot of the mountain while chatting.
"Fourth brother, what do you do at night?"
Meng Jiusi was stunned for a moment, and reviewed his life over the past few days. He said calmly, "Lying in bed, staring at the ceiling, or memorizing medical skills."
Feeling that these were somewhat boring, he smiled awkwardly, "Very boring, right?"
"No." Lin Zhao's eyes were filled with surprise, "Why do you think so?" He said word by word, "I think it's cool."
Memorize medical skills.
She felt that her fourth brother was shining.
"Fourth brother, how about I bring you some medical books to help you pass the time?"
People always have to have goals and things they are passionate about. As they endured this, Lin Zhao was worried about his fourth brother's mental state.
Traditional Chinese Medicine is so awesome, every Chinese Medicine doctor deserves protection! !
Meng Jiusi was tempted, but he was afraid that his sister would get into trouble, so he was about to refuse.
Lin Zhao guessed what he was going to say and interrupted him, saying in a domineering tone, "It's settled. I'll go find him when I have the chance."
She has a storage ring, so it’s easy for her to hide books!
"Fourth brother, you promised me that you would make a lot of money for me to spend. If your medical skills are not improved, when the country opens up, no rich people will come to you for treatment. You have to learn, and you have to learn in depth."
"I am a vulgar person, very vain. When I think of my fourth brother being a famous doctor, my face almost breaks with laughter!"
Meng Jiusi shook his head, "You are not vain."
Straightforward and passionate, bright like a little sun.
Lin Zhao wanted to cover her mouth and laugh, but when she raised her hands, she saw that they were dirty and she felt disgusted. "In Fourth Brother's eyes, I am good in every way, right?"
Meng Jiusi's ears, which had turned to a tan, felt hot, and he said with unusual firmness, "Yes."
"Hahaha, keep it up, fourth brother." Lin Zhao was in a good mood and laughed out loud.
Her laughter has an infectious charm.
Meng Jiusi curled his lips unconsciously, and the remaining haze in his heart completely disappeared at this moment.
He looked up at the sky and suddenly felt that he was favored.
As they were talking, the brother and sister arrived at the foot of the mountain.
A beautiful woman was cooking soup in a clay pot, and a little girl named Xiaoxiao was standing beside her, smiling softly.
Next to them, a middle-aged couple who looked bookish, the man was chopping wood clumsily, and the woman was washing clothes.
Noticing Lin Zhao, little Xiaoxiao hid behind her mother, only showing a pair of eyes to secretly look at her.
Tian Ruo hugged her daughter and smiled apologetically at Lin Zhao, "The child is timid, Comrade Lin, please don't mind."
Lin Zhao shook her head. "It's okay."
It would be strange if the kid could be a successful person in society if things have come to this.
She took out two candies and placed them on the table. "For the children."
After saying this, he didn't look at them again, but looked at Meng Jiusi, "Fourth brother, where is Grandpa Meng?"
Meng Jiusi looked unhappy, "I'm going to clean up the pigsty."
There are no cows in the village, so educated people like them have to raise pigs, three of them.
It’s all his fault because of his bad feet, otherwise grandpa wouldn’t have to suffer so much at such an old age.
Meng Jiusi gave the herbs to his sister.
"This is a herbal medicine that repels mosquitoes. It will last for six or seven days. If you find it is no longer useful, come back and ask me for more."
Lin Zhao took the leaf.
Yes, Meng Jiusi had no other container, so he could only wrap it in the big leaves he had picked up before and give it to her.
"Thank you, Fourth Brother. I'll go back first."
Meng Jiusi said, "Be careful on the road."
Lin Zhao waved at him and walked away briskly.
"Mom, candy?" Xiaoxiao looked at the two candies Lin Zhao placed, her eyes full of desire.
"Keep it." Meng Jiusi said gently.
Without waiting for Tian Ruo to say thank you, he limped towards the pigpen. Grandpa was old, and there was no way he could do the job of shoveling pig manure, so he must be careful not to hurt his waist.
Xiaoxiao took the candy, but couldn't bear to eat it. She gave one to her mother and kept the other carefully.
"Why don't you eat?" Tian Ruo asked.
Xiaoxiao smiled shyly and whispered, "It's a waste to eat it all at once. I'll lick it every few days, and life won't be so hard."
Tian Ruo felt a pain in her heart and tears welled up in her eyes.
Her smile.
Lin Zhao didn't know about these things.
Not long after she walked, she saw a tall figure in front of her.
"Gu Chenghuai?"
The tall figure approached quickly, "Did you give the things to Fourth Brother?"
"Yes, fourth brother said he would start treating feet tonight." Lin Zhao said in a cheerful voice, in a good mood.
"When you deliver things at night, bring a few more candles. I'm worried that the kerosene lamp is too dim and he might stab the wrong spot."
Gu Chenghuai said gently: "Okay."
