Chapter 9 Falling out

The Lin family's good shows are one after another, and they are even better than the outdoor movies shown in the farm during the farmers' leisure time.

Several neighbors were about to leave, after all, every household had work to do, but when they saw the Ma family's bride-picking party coming, they hurriedly stopped. Zhao San's wife even put her hands on her waist, wishing she could get close to the Lin couple's faces to see their expressions.

There were so many people at the door, and the people on the bus also saw it and couldn't help but tease Ma Rongliang.

"Your future uncle and aunt are quite proactive. They have been waiting for you at the door before you even arrived."

"How can they not be positive? Their son's future is in Liangzi's hands."

There was no respect for the Lin family in the words, and someone even put his arm around Ma Rongliang's shoulders and said, "I heard that your wife is very beautiful. Is that true?"

"Of course it's true, otherwise why would Liangzi leave the city girl behind and marry a girl from the countryside?"

Before Ma Rongliang could speak, someone had already squeezed his eyes and smiled. He smiled back and said, "We'll know whether she's pretty or not in a little while, right?"

Although he didn't look for her in the city, because the Zhao family had a bad reputation for always going to their house to cause trouble, it was also true that he liked Lin Qiao because she was good-looking.

Lin Qiao probably took advantage of her parents' good looks, with a tall and slim figure and bright features. There were no girls as pretty as her in the city. It was a pity that she was too young. He was only eleven or twelve when he went to the countryside. Otherwise, he would not have married Zhao Xiaoxia and would have gotten Lin Qiao long ago.

People are in high spirits when they are happy. Ma Rongliang was all smiles and even adjusted his suit carefully before getting off the car.

This only became popular after the reform and opening up. Generally, only those in charge of supply and marketing in major units have this system, which is very rare.

Unexpectedly, after getting off the car, before I could even say hello to Lin Shouyi and his wife, a familiar old face interrupted me, "Who do I think you are? You look so decent, even wearing a suit. You are wearing a human skin, and you really think you are a human being!"

These words were really unpleasant to hear, and Ma Rongliang looked unhappy at the time, thinking that he was getting married today and had not caused any conflict with the other party.

He ignored her, but that didn't mean she ignored him. Mrs. Zhao's face was almost blooming with laughter. "It's a pity that some people's trips were in vain. Miss Qiao has been married since she was a child. The man is much better looking and is a military officer from Yandu."

"Lin Qiao has a childhood marriage?" This time Ma Rongliang couldn't treat her as if she was talking nonsense.

He frowned and turned to look at the Lin couple with a look of disbelief.

At first glance, he realized that the couple had grim looks on their faces. They didn't look like they were out to greet him, but more like their father had just died.

His friends who came with him to pick up the bride also noticed it. They all stopped laughing and looked at each other in confusion.

In silence, the strange mood of Zhao San's wife became clearer. "Master Lin is a good judge of vision. He found a good son-in-law for Qiao. Look at the car he drives. It's dozens of blocks ahead of other buses. And it was driven by a driver."

Following her line of sight, Ma Rongliang noticed the jeep parked not far away.

Although the rural dirt road was narrow and the two cars could not drive side by side, with a distance between them, his rented car was instantly outclassed.

Besides, he grew up in the city and had seen more than these country people. He could tell at a glance that the license plate on the car was indeed from Yandu.

The passenger door was half open, and the young man's superior nose and jawline could be vaguely seen. However, despite the commotion here, the other party didn't even look over, and it was unclear whether he didn't want to or was disdainful.

Ma Rongliang's expression changed several times, and finally all the shock, regret and frustration turned into anger, "You introduced me to a childhood sweetheart, you're making a fool of me!"

"That's right. They've already set out the wine, invited the guests, and are just waiting to pick up the bride, and you told them that the wedding is over!"

The buddies he brought with him also started to make a fuss, pulling their collars and rolling up their sleeves, demanding an explanation.

Lin Wei saw that the situation was not right and wanted to come out to smooth things over, but Lin Shouyi held it in for a long time and said, "Our Lin Hui will soon be old enough."

Not to mention him, Sun Xiuzhi's eyes widened when she heard it, "What do you mean?"

The words had already been spoken, so Lin Shouyi simply threw in the towel, "I can't turn into another Lin Qiao, what else can I do? People are waiting over there, at least let Hui girl go over and get married first, and she can get the certificate when she is old enough."

Sun Xiuzhi was furious at the time, "Lin Shouyi, are you crazy?"

She may be mean, greedy, but she has never thought of selling her daughter. But this man, a few days ago, said that if Lin Qiao really didn't want to do it, then forget it, but he forced her to do something bad, which is not good to say, and he is more cold-blooded than anyone else.

Ma Rongliang was already in a bad mood, and he was so angry that he laughed when he saw this reaction.

"You want to get married, but I don't want it. You want to shove all the ugly things into my hands and treat me like a garbage collector?"

In fact, Lin Hui was pretty and could not be called ugly. But there were many pretty girls like her in the city, not to mention Lin Qiao.

This was an unpleasant thing to say, but even though Lin Hui had never liked him before, she still felt embarrassed.

At this point, it was certain that he would not be able to marry Lin Qiao. Ma Rongliang sneered at Lin Shouyi and his wife and said, "This matter is not over yet!" He called a few of his friends to get in the car and leave.

A group of people came happily and left angrily, leaving their neighbors with nothing to lose.

Zhao San's wife felt even happier. She had never felt so happy since she returned to the city as an educated youth.

Let these two families be more shameless than each other. Now they have not gained any benefit but have gotten themselves into trouble. If one of them is not picked up, the marriage will fall through and they will definitely be laughed at when they return home.

The two companies have now broken up, and there may be a lot of excitement in the future.

Since she had no plans to get married, Lin Qiao didn't want to have anything to do with the Ma family, so she didn't go out to see the excitement.

After everyone left, she came out of the room and said, "Let's go and get the letter of introduction first."

"Have you finished cleaning up?" Ji Duo also looked calm, as if nothing had happened.

"There are still a few pieces of clothes left. My mother is folding them for me."

Ji Duo said nothing. He walked into the house and took a look. He saw some patched old clothes. "You don't need to bring any clothes. Go back and buy new ones."

It was obvious that he didn't want to stay here any longer. The two of them had been delayed all night yesterday, and if they didn't hurry up, time would not be enough.

Lin Qiao didn't care about the clothes anymore. She put the important things into her schoolbag and packed the rest into a small bundle. "These are enough." It was a bit pitiful how little she had.

Liu Yulan also understood something, and her gentle expression suddenly tensed up, "Are you leaving now?"

Lin Qiao said "hmm", thought about it and held her hand again, "Don't worry, Mom. I'll write to you when I'm settled."

Finally, my daughter stopped rejecting me, but we didn't stay together for long and she had to leave. It would be even harder to see her in Yandu. Liu Yulan nodded, with a forced smile, "Can I talk to you alone?"

Lin Qiao was about to take people out, but Ji Duo had already turned around and walked out the door, "I'll wait for you in the car."

As soon as the person left, Liu Yulan immediately felt her pocket and took out all the money inside. "I didn't bring much with me this time. You take it first."

Lin Qiao didn't expect that she wanted to give him money. He was stunned and instinctively refused.

“

Good girl, let mom rest assured." Liu Yulan held her hand tightly and put the money into her palm without allowing her to refuse. Her eyes turned red. "The two families haven't been in touch for more than ten years. I don't know how their families are doing. Please keep some money in your hand. It will be useful if anything happens."

Then she pinched the back of her hand and said, "If they treat you badly, just come back. We don't have to climb this high branch. Mom will find you one there. The conditions may not be very good, but at least he is down-to-earth and can live a good life with you."

No matter what the future holds, Lin Qiao believes that what she said at this moment is absolutely sincere.

I wonder if the original owner in the book knew that she had given her alimony.

Lin Qiao always felt that the original owner was well-educated and had a good personality. If she wasn't so lacking in love and regarded the male protagonist as the only one in her life, she wouldn't have done that.

She didn't refuse anymore and put the money into the pocket sewn on the inside of her clothes.

Liu Yulan then let go and helped her carry the bag. "Come on, mom will see you off."

When the two walked out of the door, they ran into Sun Xiuzhi and Lin Shouyi arguing in the yard.

The people outside who were watching the excitement had already dispersed, but Sun Xiuzhi's eyes were still red, and it was obvious that she was still angry. "Lin Shouyi, you old fool! Don't you know who Ma Rongliang is? And you asked your daughter to jump into the fire pit. How could I be so blind to find such a heartless person like you!"

"You are human, why didn't you say it was a hellhole when you introduced it to Qiao?"

If this thing succeeded, it would be fine. If it didn't, Lin Shouyi would lose all his face, and he didn't know how he would be gossiped by the villagers. He was now furious. When he saw Lin Wei, he immediately shouted: "Come here, you bastard!"

This was to settle the previous score with Lin Wei. Lin Wei subconsciously shrank, but quickly straightened his neck.

Unfortunately, before Lin Shouyi could get angry, Lin Qiao's voice rang out from the side, "Brother, come here, I have something to tell you."

In fact, the one the couple wanted to kill the most was Lin Qiao, but with Liu Yulan and Ji Duo around, they couldn't do anything to Lin Qiao now.

Lin Wei immediately changed direction and followed Lin Qiao through the front and back doors of the main house and went to the vegetable garden behind the yard.

It was just the beginning of spring, and the garden still looked a little empty, with only a few green shoots sprouting here and there. Lin Qiao counted out a few bills that Liu Yulan had stuffed into his pocket, and handed them to Lin Wei, "This is the money that my brother lent me. Fortunately, I have you, otherwise I really don't know what to do."

When Lin Wei was eight months old, Sun Xiuzhi became pregnant with her second child, Lin Hui.

At that time, she was overwhelmed and could not take care of him, so she left Lin Wei to Old Lady Lin. Lin Wei had drunk the rice porridge cooked by Old Lady Lin and had also drunk Liu Yulan's milk. It can be said that he grew up with the original body and loved the original body more than his biological sister Lin Hui.

So when Sun Xiuzhi wanted to trade Lin Qiao for his job, he refused no matter what.

Unfortunately, there are always some parents in the world who are self-motivated. They always say "I'm doing this for your own good" and don't care whether their children want it or not. Lin Wei couldn't persuade his parents, so he could only secretly give all his savings to Lin Qiao and let her go out and hide for a while.

But in this era, it is difficult to take a single step without an introduction. Where can Lin Qiao, a young girl, hide?

And what good would it do if you escaped?

Lin Shouyi and his wife were determined to sell her. If there was no Ma Rongliang, there would be Zhang Rongliang and Zhao Rongliang...

So Lin Qiao chose to go to Yandu to find the Ji family.

Seeing that Lin Qiao wanted to return the money, Lin Wei quickly stepped back and said, "I'll give it to you, what else do you want to return?"

Then he lowered his head with a wry smile, "If it weren't for me, you wouldn't need this money."

Lin Shouyi and his wife probably didn't know that every action they took was hurting their son and crushing his self-esteem and conscience.

Lin Qiao sighed inwardly, "What are you going to do in the future?"

"Let's do what we have to do," Lin Weiman said indifferently, "What can they do to me? At most they can beat me up twice, but they can't kill me."

"I mean, there will be no more jobs in the city."

"I didn't have a job originally. I thought farming was a good job. Why did I have to go to the city to be a worker?"

What Lin Wei couldn't stand the most was work. He turned around and wanted to leave. After taking a few big steps, he suddenly remembered something, "Oh, by the way, I heard my parents mention the Ji family. It seems that something is not going well with the Ji family, and it is related to Master Ji. You should be careful and don't get bullied."
