Chapter 36



Lin Yiyi said, "Auntie." This is Lu Xiaochun, Xiao Dashi's mother. The Xiao family has twin genes. Qin Xiangju gave birth to a boy and a girl, and Lu Xiaochun gave birth to twins, Xiao Dashi and Xiao Xiaoshi. However, the younger one was not well taken care of in the womb, and at that time, rural people would not go to big hospitals for checkups, so when Xiao Xiaoshi was just born, his physique was very weak. Once he had a fever, which damaged his brain, and he became stupid, but not stupid in the way that a fool would, but a little honest, almost like a mentally retarded person. But when he had a fever, he was already eight years old, so he still had the IQ of an eight-year-old child.

At this moment, the twin brothers followed Lu Xiaochun. When Xiao Dashi saw Lin Yiyi, he called her, "Cousin."

Xiao Xiaoshi looked at Lin Yiyi curiously. Seeing Lin Yiyi looking at him, he grinned, showing a simple and honest smile, and obediently called out, "Cousin." When he called out, he looked a little shy.

Lin Yiyi knew all about the situation of all the relatives of the Xiao family. Qin Xiangju told her about it in the past few days.

Lin Yiyi said: "Big Shi, small Shi is good."

Seeing that Lin Yiyi responded to him, Xiao Xiaoshi leaned towards his brother, feeling shy.

Lu Xiaochun: "Are you taking your brother for a walk?"

Lin Yiyi said: "Brother Yu has gone to work, I came to see him off, is Auntie going to be busy now?"

Lu Xiaochun: "That's right, let's go to the mountain and see if there is anything to eat."

Lin Yiyi: "Then I won't bother you, auntie. Please be careful when you go up the mountain."

Lu Xiaochun: "Hey, Auntie knows."

Lin Yiyi returned to the Xiao family. Today, the Xiao family was not at home. They went to find food. Except for the two children and Grandma Xiao, Lin Yiyi put Lin Wudi down and let him play with Xiao Rui and Xiao Ling with the cloth ball she made. She went to write. Lin Yiyi set a goal for herself to write a short story a month, and each short story was about 100,000 words. If 100,000 words were to be published, the word count would be just right. And 100,000 words a month would bring 200 yuan in royalties alone. Lin Yiyi was simply too satisfied. According to the number of 100,000 words, the daily task was 3,000 to 4,000 words.

But before writing the article, Lin Yiyi thought of one more thing, about the mung beans and soybeans at home. These beans can be kept for up to two years, and the beans that Xiao Yu exchanged could not be from this year, they must be from last year or 58 years, so it is not appropriate to keep them any longer.

But mung beans and soybeans are not good for eating just by cooking them in soup. If you want to eat them properly, you can only grow them into sprouts. Lin Yiyi is certainly not like the heroines in other novels who can do everything, but she can really grow bean sprouts. Many readers have an interest in learning about something described in a novel, and Lin Yiyi is no exception. Once, when she was reading a novel, she saw the heroine sprouting mung beans and soybeans. Out of curiosity, she went to buy mung beans and soybeans, and then tried it according to the description in the book. It really worked. Although the author also noted that this was a reference to Baidu, the feeling of success after trying it yourself is different.

With the idea in mind, Lin Yiyi took action. She went to get a bucket and a basket and took them to her room. First, she picked the soybeans and put them in the bucket. They had to soak for a day. The next day, she poured the soybeans into the basket, then put a small stool in the bucket, put the basket on the small stool, and then covered it with a wet towel. The reason why the small stool was put in the bucket was because the soybeans in the basket had to be watered every day. If the water below was blocked, they would stink. With the small stool, the water in the basket would flow into the bucket, and the soybeans would not stink.

Seeing Lin Yiyi busy, Grandma Xiao asked curiously: "Yiyi, what are you doing?"

Lin Yiyi said mysteriously: "Grandma, just wait. In three days, I will add another dish to our family."

Grandma Xiao smiled and said, "You are so mysterious. Okay, I will wait for you."

Lin Yiyi: "I'm sure grandma will like it."

This is also why Grandma Xiao likes Lin Yiyi. She is generous and always smiles. She is not like the eldest grandson's wife, who is calculating when she looks at him, nor is she like the youngest grandson's wife, who shrinks her body every day and dares not say anything. But this girl is different. Her eyes are pure and innocent.

After soaking the soybeans, Lin Yiyi continued her creation for today.

At dinner time, Xiao Yu came back. He got home around six o'clock, and the family was waiting for him to eat. During the meal, Xiao Yu said, "A milk powder ticket costs two yuan, or two kilograms of grain. Do you want to exchange it, sister-in-law? My colleague has some, and he is willing to exchange it."

Qi Spinach's heart moved.

Qin Xianglian said, "Even if we get the ticket, we still have to buy the milk powder separately, right?"

Xiao Yu: "Yes, I have to go to the department store to see if it has it. If the department store doesn't have it, I have to buy it outside."

Qin Xiangju: "If each room wants to buy nutritional supplements, they can use their own money to buy them. The public money belongs to everyone. If a room does not have enough, it needs to use the money of other rooms to subsidize it. There is no way to see a doctor. Buying nutritional supplements is a matter of one's own."

Qi Bocai was speechless. She also knew that it was impossible for the public to take out money to buy milk powder for her son. However, "Does my second brother and sister-in-law plan to buy it?"

Lin Yiyi: "I was planning to buy it. I have a broken bone and need to make up for it." She didn't say that she was giving it to Lin Wudi, she just paid for it herself. There is nothing wrong with paying for it yourself with the royalties you earn. Otherwise, it would be bad to say in front of everyone that she was giving it to Lin Wudi, but the Xiao family didn't give it to Xiao Rui.

Qi Bocai: "How much money did my second brother's wife earn from the royalties two days ago?"

Lin Yiyi: "Brother Yu keeps all our family's money. Brother Yu, how much was my previous royalties? I forgot. You should remember the money you took out, right?"

Suddenly, everyone looked at Xiao Yu.

Xiao Yu said: "It's enough for you to buy a can of milk powder."

Lin Yiyi said: "Brother Yu, you are so nice."

Xiao-Woo: "Yeah."

Grandma Xiao and Qin Xiangju smiled and shook their heads, while Qi Bocai looked gloomy.

After dinner, Lin Yiyi pulled Xiao Yu and said, "Brother Yu, grandma said there is a stone mill over there in the playground in the village. I want to grind some rice noodles there to feed my younger brother. The army here has 26 catties of rice in exchange for dried shrimps. I plan to grind 10 catties. 10 catties of rice should be about 9 catties of rice noodles, which can feed my younger brother for a few months." The Lin brothers put 145 catties of food here. After 10 catties of rice, there are still 135 catties. The food of the Xiao family cannot be said to be bad. Every day, they have wild vegetable soup or sweet potato rice porridge, which is better than that of ordinary families. However, Lin Yiyi thinks that it is not a good idea to feed the fifth brother Lin like this. The child is skinny and does not grow meat.

However, it was not just the fifth brother Lin, Xiao Rui was also like this, the children ate whatever everyone else ate. But when Lin Yiyi saw the rice that the younger brothers of the Lin family had put down, she wanted to give some to Xiao Wu, since he was eating from his brothers anyway, what could the Xiao family say?

Xiao Yu said, "Okay."

When Lin Yiyi said this, she didn't hide from anyone, and everyone heard it. Just as she thought, the fifth brother Lin was fed by the Lin family, and the Xiao family would not say anything.

Qin Xiangju said, "We still have some rice at home. Bring two more kilograms and grind it for Xiaorui to drink." As for Xiao Zhu, the granddaughter, Qin Xiangju would not grind rice into rice flour for her to eat. The Xiao family did not deliberately abuse their granddaughters, but they would not give them special treatment either. Of course, if it was their own daughter, it would be different. So granddaughters and daughters are different.

Xiao-Woo: "Brother, let's go together."

Xiao Wu: "Okay, I'm fine."

Qi Spinach: "Mom, Xiaorui alone is not enough, Xiaozhu also needs to be supplemented."

Qin Xiangju: "Then take some from Xiaorui."

Qi Bocai was unhappy again: "Xiao Rui is still young, he doesn't even have enough to eat, how can he share with Xiao Zhu?"

Qin Xiangju: "Then I'll take it from you. I'll give you the rice you save to make rice noodles for Xiaozhumo."

Of course Qi Bocai was not happy either. She barely ate enough to eat every day, so how could she save money? In her ranking, her son and herself were the most important, followed by her daughter. In other words, she was good to her daughter, but only as long as it did not harm the interests of her and her son.

Grinding rice flour is very quick, and it was ready in less than an hour. Qin Xiangju took out a few clean cans for everyone to pack rice flour into, but unfortunately, Lin Yiyi had 9 kilograms of rice flour, and the can was a fruit can, so it was not enough.

There was no other choice but to wrap it in a clean cloth and put it in the basket.

Lin Yiyi tried using a wooden spoon and found that one pound of rice can produce about 45 spoons of rice noodles, that is to say, one spoon of rice noodles is about 5 grams. If the rice noodles are soaked in hot water, the weight can be increased three or four times. Two spoons are just right for Lin Wudi to eat at each meal, and six spoons a day can last for two months.

When she went to bed at night, Lin Yiyi was so happy just thinking about rice noodles. She pinched Lin Wudi's face and said, "Silly boy, I will give you rice noodles tomorrow. Are you happy?"

Brother Lin Wu was lying on his back with his eyes rolling around: "Eat rice noodles, they're delicious."

Lin Yiyi: "You haven't even tried it, how do you know it's delicious?"

Brother Lin Wu: “It’s delicious.”

Xiao Yu came in after taking a shower and was stunned when he saw something in the room: "What is this?" What he actually wanted to ask was, how did you bring the bucket in? However, the Xiao family had several buckets, so they were not nervous to use them.

Lin Yiyi: "It's a secret. You'll know in three days. Don't peek now."

Xiao Yu likes her mysterious look the most.

Lin Yiyi: "Are you going to the department store to look at milk powder and malted milk tomorrow?"

Xiao Yu: "Milk powder and maltose are in high demand. How can it be our turn to buy them now?"

Lin Yiyi: "Then the milk powder coupons you exchanged are useless, right?"

Xiao Yu went to bed: "No milk powder ticket."

Lin Yiyi: "Ah? Are you lying?"

Xiao Yu: "Not really. One of my comrades is from Inner Mongolia. If they have connections there, they won't have any problem getting the milk powder for our babies."

The milk powder on the market now is basically from Inner Mongolia and Shanghai.

Lin Yiyi: "You asked your comrades to help? Forget it. It's not worth it to owe favors to others for such things." Favors must be repaid, so it's better not to owe favors to others for small matters. "Little brother can eat rice noodles instead of milk powder."

Xiao Yu said, "It's okay. I wouldn't ask about people we are related to. Besides, you are weak and need nourishment." He actually wanted to nourish her. And he knew his limits. He could ask someone to give him milk powder. Their relationship must be strong.

Lin Yiyi narrowed her eyes and smiled: "Brother Yu, you are so nice."

Xiao Yu: “…” You were so angry yesterday, but today you’re happy and your mouth is sweet.

Lin Yiyi: "Brother Yu, when can I go to the county town?" Here, it is inconvenient to do anything. No matter what is prepared, it has to be shared by everyone. It is not that she is stingy, but take the mung bean soup for example. There are so many people in the Xiao family. If one pound of mung beans is boiled into soup, one bowl for each person is gone. But how many mung beans are there in the family?

Xiao Yu: "I was just about to tell you. I went to see today that the former director was promoted to the city. The vacant house in his family is just right for us to live in. When do you want to go and take a look?" The public security system is different from other employees. Because there are not many people in the public security system, not as many as those in the factory, so the public security staff housing is not tight. Especially for someone like Xiao Yu, the internal department cannot seize his house. "However, if you go to the city, your household registration cannot be transferred, so there is no commercial grain."

Lin Yiyi: “Ah?”

Xiao Yu: "There are two ways to transfer your household registration: one is to work, and the other is to buy a house. If you have a job in the county, your household registration can be transferred there and you can receive commodity grain, or if you buy a house in the county, your household registration can be naturally registered. In my case, the vocational college of the public security system can give me a place to live. As long as I am still in the public security system, or when I retire, I can still live in this house until I die. However, it will only last until I die, and then the house will be taken back."

Lin Yiyi: "I know that we only have the right to live in and use the houses of the public security system, but we do not have the ownership rights and cannot buy or sell them."

Xiao-Woo: "Yes."

Lin Yiyi: "It doesn't matter. We can just not have commercial food. We have money, right? If we find a suitable house, we can buy it and then we can transfer our hukou."

Xiao Yu: "Okay." That's what he meant.

Lin Yiyi: "Then I'll go look at the house tomorrow?"

Xiao Yu: "...So anxious?"

Lin Yiyi: "I don't want you to have to ride your bike back and forth every day."

Xiao Yu: "..." He didn't believe it at all. But even though he knew the reason, he was still happy to hear her say that.

Lin Yiyi stretched out her leg and hooked his leg in trousers: "Why are you sleeping in trousers? Aren't you hot?"

Xiao Yu: “…” He was just a little embarrassed to take off his trousers.

Lin Yiyi: "Brother Yu, do you have leg hair?" She thinks men with leg hair are particularly sexy.

Xiao Yu: "...Yes." However, he felt that he was a little dangerous.

Lin Yiyi: "Take off your pants and let me see."

Xiao Yu: "No need?"

Lin Yiyi: "We are husband and wife, and you are still wearing trousers in bed. Do you dislike me?"

Xiao-Woo: "No."

Lin Yiyi turned around and ignored him: "I don't believe it. If you don't want to take it off, then don't. I'll kill you from the heat."

Xiao Yu: "..." Looking at the young wife's back, her smooth and white shoulders were exposed, and her thin back became extremely attractive at this moment. Although the young wife was only 15 years old, after spending a few days with her, Xiao Yu really couldn't regard her as a 15-year-old girl. In his eyes, she was an attractive woman, a mature woman... a woman who could spend the wedding night with him.

Xiao Yu: Even if his wife is angry, he won't take off his pants. But, a wife being angry is a big problem, and she needs to be coaxed. He thought about it, stretched out his hand and pulled Lin Yiyi's arm. He held the remaining arm with one hand, which was so thin.

Lin Yiyi: "Don't touch me unless you take off your pants."

Xiao Yu: "..."

Lin Yiyi: "Will you not take it off in the future? Will you still wear your pants and sleep in the same quilt with me when it's cold?"

Xiao-Woo: "It's cold, take it off."

Lin Yiyi: “…” This man is also a talented person.

Seeing that she was silent again, Xiao Yu moved closer to her, a little closer, her back pressed against his chest, and their breaths seemed to be intertwined. Lin Yiyi certainly felt it, and her heartbeat accelerated a little. Although she had flirted with him and wanted this and that, after all, she was 28 years old and single and lonely, but when they really got close, she was also nervous.

Xiao Yu slowly stretched out his arm, he was also nervous. Before, they were unconsciously hugging each other after falling asleep, but now they were awake. The strong and slender arm wrapped around Lin Yiyi's slender waist, the arm was a little stiff, but still full of strength. Xiao Yu was nervous, not only was his chest pounding, but his tongue licked his lips unconsciously, not only was he nervous, but there was also a hint of excitement when a man hugged a woman: "Go to sleep."

Lin Yiyi was also nervous. Although she knew he wouldn't do anything to her, after all, she was still young, she still had a little desire in her heart: "Yeah."

So, the two of them slept in each other's arms, like a silly boy and a silly girl who were secretly in love.

After a long while, Lin Yiyi couldn't fall asleep. She was newly married, and her husband was sleeping next to her. This husband had a good figure and good looks, and he was the type she admired. But now? What was the difference between just chatting with him under the quilt?

Moreover, this man was very honest. He just hugged her and did nothing else.

Lin Yiyi turned around and faced Xiao Yu. Xiao Yu, who had originally closed his eyes, suddenly opened them and the two looked at each other.

Lin Yiyi: "Brother Yu..."

Xiao Yu: “Hmm?” His Adam’s apple rolled.

Lin Yiyi stretched out her hand and placed it on Xiao Yu's shoulder nervously and tremblingly. The man instinctively knew what Lin Yiyi wanted to do, but he did not move.

Lin Yiyi's face moved closer to Xiao Yu's: "Can I kiss you?" She asked. It was still the soft voice of a young girl, with a hint of coquettishness.

Xiao Yu's breathing was a little heavy, and he hummed only to catch his breath.

Lin Yiyi's lips pressed against his. She had never been kissed before, but she had read novels. Which novel nowadays doesn't have a kissing scene? She opened her mouth, gently held his lips, and licked them with the tip of her tongue.

The string that Xiao Yu had been holding tightly together broke, and a surge of restlessness surged in his body. He turned over and took control. Then, imitating Lin Yiyi's actions, he bit Lin Yiyi's lips, eagerly... and passionately.

the next day

There is a saying among modern people that the conflicts between men and women cannot be solved by having sex once. If one time is not enough, do it twice. Some people say that as long as two people have sex, the relationship will become intimate. In fact, this saying makes sense. Women will naturally have a sense of dependence on men who have slept with them, because she is willing to sleep with this man, which means that she has a certain affection for this man. Of course, this is not true for all, but for most people.

And today, the newlywed couple who were reluctant to say goodbye to each other at the village gate were also like this.

Before last night, Xiao Yu treated Lin Yiyi as his wife, but this feeling was accompanied by his affection and sense of responsibility for Lin Yiyi. After yesterday, he seemed to have opened up a new world. A man who had never kissed before knew the beauty of kissing, the pleasure flowing through the body, the feeling of a woman lying softly in his arms. He was very new and liked it very much. From that moment on, he treated Lin Yiyi as his woman. Beyond affection and sense of responsibility, a deeper feeling was added. In other words, the affection was upgraded.

Xiao Yu: "I'm going to work, you go back. Tomorrow is Sunday and we have a day off. I'll take you to see the house. We can look at it later if we need anything."

Lin Yiyi: "Go ahead, I'll watch you. When I can't see you anymore, I'll go back."

Xiao Yu: “…” With a helpless look on his face, his wife was even more clingy than yesterday.

After returning to Xiao's house, Lin Yiyi watered the soybeans first, and then began to write. Perhaps because she was calm and emotionally sweet today, her thinking was particularly good today. She wrote tens of thousands of words in the morning, which made Lin Yiyi, who had a daily goal of 3,000 to 4,000 words, very excited. Thinking that she had to go to the county town to look at houses tomorrow and had no time to write, she worked hard in the afternoon and wrote 20,000 words in one day.

After she finished writing but it was not yet time for dinner, she took Lin Wudi to visit Old Lady Ge's house.

However, Lin Dajun and his friends were not seen at Old Lady Ge's house.

Old Lady Ge said, "They went to the reservoir to play in the water."

When Lin Yiyi heard this, she felt worried. The reservoir was very dangerous. Even though there was a drought now and the water level was not as high as before, it did not mean that the reservoir was dry. Besides, there was a lot of mud under the reservoir and if you sank into it, you would not be able to get out.

Old Lady Ge said, "They were reading in the afternoon, very well behaved, and they just left not long ago." Old Lady Ge didn't think too much about the dangers of the reservoir. First, rural children often go to play in the water. Although adults will remind them, they don't take it too seriously. Who says that children nowadays are free to do anything? Second, Lin Dajun is a 13-year-old boy, and everyone can treat him as an adult, so they don't worry about it at all.

But Lin Yiyi didn't think so. In the period novels, aren't there many passers-by who were cannon fodder at the reservoir? So, she carried Lin Wudi and hurried to the reservoir to find Lin Dajun and the others. Damn kid, there are so many places to have fun, but you have to go to the reservoir.

The reservoir is at the foot of the mountain at the end of the village. It is close to the mountain from Old Lady Ge's house, but Lin Yiyi is still very cautious when she thinks of the wild boar. She is not sure whether the pheasant and wild boar incident is the original owner's luck. Even if it is, she dare not face the wild boar. So she begs in her heart, if it is really related to the heroine's luck, God should not send her wild boars again, she really can't bear it. Pheasants and pheasant eggs are acceptable, and fish are also acceptable.
