Lin Yiyi continued, "Dajun, after my sister gets married, the affairs of the family will be handed over to you, and the public treasury will also be handed over to you. My sister's wedding gift includes food, money, and wedding candy, all of which will be handed over to you. After all, you are the head of the family now. Tell me, can you manage this family well?"

Lin Dajun wanted to refuse at first, but when he heard that he would be in charge of the food, money, and wedding candies, he could no longer refuse. He immediately said, "Don't worry, sister. I can do it."

Lin Yiyi gave Lin Dajun a gratified smile: "Sister believes in you."

Lin Dajun looked at Lin Yiyi and felt a little weird inside. His sister actually believed him so much.

Lin Erjun clenched his fists, feeling unhappy. Why did he leave all the food, money and wedding candies to his eldest brother? Was it because he was the oldest brother? But how could his eldest brother be as smart as he was? In the past, his eldest brother would listen to whatever he said. But he couldn't refute it. One was the eldest brother and the other was the eldest sister. What could he say?

Lin Yiyi added, "Dajun, since you said you can manage the family well and are worthy of this family, then you should take your brothers to clean the house first, and then fill the water tank. The Xiao family will come to propose marriage tomorrow, and we can't do this in our family."

Lin Dajun had just promised that he could support the family, so of course he couldn't refuse now, so he said, "Don't worry, sister, I'll go now." Lin Sanjun was only 12 years old and always followed his brother. Lin Sijun was only 10 years old and had no opinion of his own, so when Lin Dajun wanted to take them to work, they followed him.

Lin Yiyi said: "Second Army, stay. I have something else to tell you."

Lin Erjun stayed, but his expression was a little unfriendly. He lowered his head and looked at his toes.

Lin Yiyi said: "Erjun, I want to discuss something with you."

Lin Erjun nodded.

Who are you trying to bet on?

Lin Yiyi didn't care. She leaned on the bed and continued softly, "Erjun, you and Dajun are the same age. Although Dajun was born earlier and is the eldest brother, I know that you are smarter than him. It's just that Dajun is the eldest brother. In terms of status, after I get married, he will be the head of the family, so food, money, and wedding candies can only be managed by him. But I hope you can help Dajun and remember every penny he spends. If he does something wrong, you can remind him. You are brothers, you must supervise and help each other."

Lin Erjun said "oh".

Lin Yiyi continued, "In some families, the eldest son is not worthy of the family reputation, so they rely on the second and third sons to take over, and even give the rights of the housekeeper to the second and third sons. But our family cannot do this. Our family must be united and friendly."

Lin Erjun's ears twitched. It's not the case for every family to have the eldest son be the head of the family. Some families value the second or third son. If the eldest son makes a mistake, does that mean he can no longer be the head of the family?

Lin Yiyi sighed: "It's all my fault that my sister is in poor health after selling blood. Staying at home is also a waste of food at home. Get married early and get some food so that I can help you. Otherwise, I really don't want to get married, and my sister can't bear to leave you."

Lin Erjun thought again, yes, although he wanted to keep his sister at home so that she could do the laundry and cook for them, but if his sister didn't get married, they would have no food and no money.

Lin Yiyi: "Erjun, go help your elder brother clean and fetch water."

Lin Erjun followed him out.

After Lin Erjun left, Lin Yi slid down from the bedside and lay on the bed. She looked at the ceiling and wondered how she could have traveled through time and space here while sleeping at home. This was unscientific. In novels, anyone who traveled through time and space must have died in a car accident or from illness, but she was neither of these two. She was sleeping at home just now, and she had a physical examination every year and was healthy. So how could she, a healthy, living person, have traveled through time and space?

Lin Yiyi turned her head and looked at Lin Wudi who was sleeping beside her. The two-year-old child was not only skinny, but also had a sunken face. His small body was curled up, and tears were hanging from the corners of his eyes. Lin Yiyi reached out and touched Lin Wudi's face. What should she do with this child?

In the original plot, Lin Wudi was given away, and the family that adopted him was a good one, so he was well educated, which is why they were able to take Daya in to take care of him in his old age at the end of the plot.

But now she is here, and she is getting married. If she gets married, and then gives Lin Wudi away, it will not sound good to tell others. Daya gave Lin Wudi away because she had no family and could not make ends meet. Besides, Lin Wudi was so good, she was reluctant to give him away.

Lin Yiyi had no objection to marrying Xiao Yu. In this era, she still had the Lin family as a burden. How could she go to work? Now there was no work to do. She was asked to search for food in the mountains and fields, and she didn't even know wild vegetables. So when she couldn't support herself, marrying was the best choice, and marrying could get rid of the Lin family. So when Qin Xiangju brought it up, she knew the answer without even thinking.

Besides, she really likes the tall and handsome Xiao Yu. When she first saw the poster, she thought this man was stunningly handsome. Now that she has traveled back to the drama or the book and met the real person, who is a bit scheming, she thinks Xiao Yu is more attractive than the one in the poster.

A man can be filial, but he can't be blindly filial. A man can't argue too much with a woman, but he can't watch his wife being bullied. When Xiao Yu said that he would add 10 yuan to the betrothal gift to make 16 yuan for good luck, she felt that this man was really considerate.

When Lin Yiyi was lost in thought, Lin Dajun came and said, "Sister, the water tank is full and the house is clean."

Lin Yiyi came back to her senses: "Thank you, Dajun. With you here, I feel relieved. I feel like I have someone to rely on. As expected, the old saying is true. A woman must have many brothers in her family so that she can stand up straight."

Although Lin Dajun had selfish motives, he was still happy to be praised by his elder sister. When a person is happy, he will have fewer dark thoughts. So at this moment, he couldn't help but say, "Don't worry, elder sister, after you marry Brother Yu, if he dares to bully you, I will bring my brothers to support you."

Lin Yiyi chuckled: "Then the elder sister is waiting for you."

Lin Dajun: "Just wait."

Lin Yiyi said: "Dajun, my elder sister needs your help with something right now."

Lin Dajun had just received a compliment from Lin Yiyi, and with the help of the supervisor, he said: "Big sister, is there anything you need my help with? Just tell me."

Lin Yiyi: "Tomorrow the Xiao family will come to propose marriage. I want to take a bath today, but... but I'm sick from selling blood. Can you help me boil some hot water?"

Boiling water is a simple matter. All rural children know how to do it. Lin Dajun said, "Okay."

The Lin family didn't have an iron pot. The iron had been handed in long ago. At the beginning, there was a big pot in the canteen of the brigade, so the iron pot was handed in. Later, the big pot was disbanded, and Lin's father found a few sand pots, and then built a few small stoves, and put the sand pots on them to use as pots. Not only the Lin family, but also many families in the Shanglin production brigade used sand pots in this way. Speaking of sand pots, they were exchanged with grain from the sand pot factory in the town. Oh, before liberation, this was a sand pot factory, and later it became a clothing factory, but a large number of tea pots were still there. If someone brought grain to exchange, the people in the factory would take them out for exchange, and the Lin family exchanged two.

Lin Dajun boiled hot water twice, a total of four sand pots, equivalent to three thermos of water, and exchanged it for cold water. Only then did Lin Yiyi take a comfortable bath.

After taking a shower, the Lin brothers sat in the yard. They couldn't sleep, but they couldn't move to waste their energy, so they could only sit. Seeing them, Lin Yiyi said, "Dajun, come with me to the captain's house. I have something to discuss with him."

Lin Dajun: "Sister, what do you want to talk to the captain about?"

Lin Yiyi: "The Xiao family will come to propose marriage tomorrow. There is no adult at home, so I plan to ask the captain and his wife to be witnesses. By the way, I'd like to say hello to the captain. I'm getting married soon, and I ask him to take care of you. Otherwise... otherwise I really will be worried about you. I... I don't want to get married anymore. Even if there is no food, at least our family is together." As she spoke, she choked up again.

Lin Dajun: "Don't worry, sister. I will take care of this family."

Lin Erjun: "Don't worry, sister. We will take good care of ourselves."

The Lin brothers are now most afraid that their eldest sister will not marry and they will not be able to get the betrothal gifts and food.

With their comfort, Lin Yiyi finally smiled again: "Then Dajun, come with me to the captain's house. Erjun, you stay at home and take good care of your brothers."

Lin Erjun: "I'll go too. Although I'm not the eldest brother, I'm also worried about eldest sister's marriage. Sister, let me go. With one more person, there will be one more person to discuss things with if anything happens." Mainly because the eldest brother is the head of the family, he is worried that the eldest brother only thinks about himself and he doesn't trust him.

Lin Yiyi said: "Okay then, after all, you are as big as the army. The army can be in charge, and so can you. One more person means we have more strength. Let's go."

Lin Dajun was nervous. Will the eldest sister let Erjun be the head of the family? No, he must be the head of the family. He must be in charge of the food, money, and wedding candy.

Lin Yiyi took Lin Dajun and Lin Erjun to the captain's house.

The captain's family had already gone to bed, but they were not sleeping in the house, but outside. It was the custom of the people here that in summer, everyone would spread out mats and sleep outside to keep cool, because the house was too hot and sleeping outside was cooler. However, all the people who slept there were men, and even when they slept, they were all wearing clothes and pants.

So when Lin Yiyi came, the captain was sleeping on the cool mat outside the house, and the captain's son also slept with him. But it was not time to go to bed yet, and although everyone was asleep, they did not fall asleep. When they saw someone coming, they immediately got up.
