Chapter 54 Let Her Marry
She steals?
Lin Qi just thought it was ridiculous, then she laughed and asked, "You said I stole her watch? Where is the evidence?"
After being suspected of being a ghost, Lin Qi was too lazy to pretend and now speaks more and more fluently.
"Wanwan's watch is missing. I found it in your backpack." Ma Guizhi disliked Lin Qi for being a fool before, but she hated thieves even more.
Lin Qi frowned. They actually went through her bag. Fortunately, her money and valuables were in the cave, otherwise she couldn't explain where she got the money, and the watch that she hadn't sent to her brother yet.
"We've caught the criminal red-handed. What else do you have to say?" Zhu Qing glanced at Lin Qi, her eyes looking as if she was looking at something dirty.
"When I left, you were still asleep. When I came back, you were all already at the educated youth site. I was in the mountains the whole day, so how could I have stolen it?" Lin Qi asked back.
"I didn't expect you to be so eloquent." Ma Guizhi looked at Lin Qi with new eyes. "You said you didn't come back, so you didn't come back? Who can prove it?"
Lin Qi: “…No.”
After a busy day in the mountains, Lin Qi had to deal with these things when she came back. She was exhausted both physically and mentally.
"See, she has nothing to say. She was the one who stole it." Feng Qian pointed at Lin Qi.
Jiang Wanwan bit her lip, her eyes red, and she looked aggrieved and pitiful. "That was a birthday present my mother gave me. You could have stolen something else, but how could you steal my watch?"
Lin Qi sneered, "If I stole your watch, would I hide it in my backpack and wait for you to find it?"
"What do you mean? Can the watch run into your backpack by itself?" Zhu Qing asked back.
"How did it get into my bag? Probably only its owner knows. Am I right, Jiang Wanwan?" Lin Qi's eyes were cold.
Jiang Wanwan felt a chill on her back, as if she was being stared at by something scary. She opened her mouth, but couldn't say a word.
Jiang Wanwan's face was filled with horror, her eyes almost popping out.
What did this Lin Qi do to her?
Everyone present noticed that something was wrong with Jiang Wanwan, and their hair stood on end and their teeth chattered.
This Lin Qi is really a ghost!
She can control people's bodies!
They were so frightened that they wanted to run away, but they were too scared, their feet were totally out of control, and they could only stay where they were.
The two older ones, the captain and the deputy captain, also changed their expressions and were at a loss for a moment.
"I'll give you another chance. Tell me how your watch got into my backpack?" Lin Qi said.
The next second, Jiang Wanwan regained her freedom and fell to the ground uncontrollably.
But at this time, no one dared to help her.
In the face of the unknown terrifying force, no one dared to go against Lin Qi.
"It was me, I released it." Jiang Wanwan cried out in tears.
"Very good, the truth is out." Lin Qi turned her head and looked at the captain and the deputy captain. "Do you have anything else to say?"
"No." The captain pretended to be calm.
That night, almost everyone at the educated youth site did not sleep.
Only Lin Qi slept until dawn. As soon as it was light, she went out with her backpack and headed straight to the mountains. She took her watch and banknotes, filled a cloth bag with smoked fish, and a jar of wine, and then she went to the town along the mountain path.
When she arrived at the post office, she was greeted by an uncle again. He was a little uncomfortable when he saw Lin Qi's slightly empty backpack.
"Mailing something again?" the uncle asked.
"Yes. I send things and pick up things. The postman informed me that there is my package at the post office." Lin Qi said. In addition to the package, there is also a remittance slip.
After leaving the post office, Lin Qi followed the uncle home again. She sold the wine to the uncle, and in addition to receiving the money, she also received a few cloth bags from the uncle.
"You use cloth bags more often, so I got you a cloth bag but not a sack," the uncle explained.
"Thank you." She was indeed in need of cloth bags.
"Is this wine really gone?" The uncle poured himself a glass of wine, and with every sip he took, he looked intoxicated.
"There's still some left, I want to keep it for myself." Lin Qi said.
"What kind of wine is a little kid drinking? I'll sell it all to you, uncle." This wine is good, not much worse than Moutai. After drinking it, I feel refreshed and relaxed. The uncle really thinks this wine is good.
"No, I won't sell it. This wine isn't intoxicating, and I can drink it." Lin Qi said.
After leaving her uncle's house, Lin Qi went to buy thirty meat buns and twenty steamed buns. After buying them, she did not go to the supply and marketing cooperative, but returned directly to Anliang Brigade.
She was running very fast now, and it was only two or three in the afternoon when she returned to Anliang Brigade.
As soon as Lin Qi returned to the village entrance, she was stopped by Luo Laizi.
"Lin Qi, the educated youth site can no longer accommodate you, so please move in and live with me." Luo Laizi said.
Lin Qi was too lazy to talk nonsense with him, "Get out of the way."
"I'm serious." Luo Laizi looked into Lin Qi's eyes. "Everyone is afraid of you, but I'm not. Everyone dislikes you, but I don't. I think those people in the educated youth camp don't want to live with you. Lin Qi, those educated youth went to the team leader this morning and begged him to separate you from the educated youth camp. There are no empty houses in the team, so why don't you live with me and we can live together."
Luo Laizi originally wanted to say "I will marry you", but his intuition told him that if he said these three words, his fate would be miserable.
"Get out of the way! Don't make me say it a second time!" Lin Qi was getting impatient. The smell on Luo Laizi was too strong, making her want to vomit.
"Don't be ungrateful. Besides me, who else is there——"
Bang!
Luo Laizi took several steps back, his face pale and he was in so much pain that he couldn't speak.
"Don't show up in front of me next time, or it won't be as simple as a punch."
Lin Qi did not return to the educated youth point and was stopped again. This time, the people who stopped her were the team leader and the deputy team leader.
After a night, the two men's fear of her seemed to have faded a little. In addition, the sun was shining brightly, and the warm sunlight seemed to bring strength to people.
The captain looked at Lin Qi's shadow on the ground and couldn't suppress his curiosity. He bravely asked, "Are you really not a human?"
"I suspect you are insulting me with this." Lin Qi told a cold joke.
The joke was not funny, but both the captain and the deputy captain relaxed a lot.
"Then explain to me what's wrong with you?" said the captain.
"I once learned Kung Fu from a master for several years. I have a good talent and I am better than my master, so I am better than my master." Lin Qi said lightly.
After her explanation, the captain and the deputy captain were mostly convinced.
"What happened to Jiang Wanwan yesterday?" the captain continued to ask.
"I just poked her jaw with a stone, causing her pain and making her speechless. It was dark and you couldn't see me do it." Lin Qi explained with reason and evidence.
"I see." The team leader believed it. "I told you that ghosts don't exist in this world. But we believe you, but others don't, especially the female educated youths in the educated youth center. They said they don't want to live under the same roof with you, and either you move out or they move out. But there are no empty houses in the team--"
Lin Qi didn't respond. Since there was no vacant house, what was the purpose of telling her this?
"Lin Qi, have you ever thought about getting married in the Anliang Brigade?" asked the deputy captain.
"Get married?" Having been single for two lifetimes, Lin Qi had never thought about getting married.
"Yes, get married. I've read your materials, and you'll be seventeen in four months. In the countryside, it's common to get married at the age of sixteen or seventeen. If it weren't for the natural disasters in the past few years, marriages would have stopped. I'm afraid there wouldn't be many girls over eighteen years old who haven't married in our brigade." The deputy captain smiled amiably, "You're just the right age to get married."
Lin Qi refused, "I don't want to get married."
"You haven't figured it out yet. I'll introduce you to a young man. You two can spend a few days together. When you figure it out, you'll want to get married." The deputy captain continued to persuade with an experienced look, "You know that guy. His name is Luo Qingbai, and he's just 20 years old this year. He's handsome, he has older brothers and sisters, he's the youngest, and he's the most loved by his parents, but he's not spoiled at all. On the contrary, he's mature, steady, down-to-earth and hardworking, and he can earn ten work points a day."
"It was Luo Qingbai who said he wanted to marry me?" Lin Qi remembered the name Luo Qingbai, but she really didn't pay attention to what he looked like at that time.
The deputy captain nodded, "He took the initiative to ask me to help him connect."
Lin Qi asked again, "Will his family agree?"
"As long as we explain clearly to his family that you are not a ghost, but you know martial arts, there is no reason for his family to disagree." The deputy captain was full of confidence.
"They agree, but I don't. I don't want to get married." Lin Qi refused very straightforwardly, "You can ask me to move out of the educated youth camp, but help me build a house."
"Building a house is not easy. Our brigade does not have blue bricks, and you certainly won't want to live in a thatched hut, so we can only build an adobe house. The adobe house needs to be made of mud bricks, using yellow mud from the mountains and gray mud from the fields, plus straw chopped with a guillotine, and water, and people and cows step on it to mix them evenly. Finally, pour the mud into the mold, press it firmly, remove the mold, and a mud brick is ready. In addition to making mud bricks, you also have to dig the foundation and lay the foundation stone. You also have to cut down trees and make doors and windows... In short, building a house is very troublesome and time-consuming." said the brigade leader.
If building houses wasn't so difficult, their team wouldn't have to have more than a dozen people squeezed into four or five rooms.
"I'm not afraid of trouble. I can move out first and live in a cave, and then move back into the house when it's built." Lin Qi said.
The captain still looked embarrassed. "It will take a lot of manpower to build a house. I'm worried that no one will dare to help you. Although we will explain to the team members that you are not a ghost, they may not believe it in a short period of time."
"What if wild boar meat is used as a reward?" Lin Qi asked.
The captain and the deputy captain looked at each other and felt a little moved.
The captain asked, "How much wild boar meat can you give?"
Lin Qi: "Two kilograms a day, settled on the same day."
"Okay! I'll find someone for you." The captain agreed quickly. Even if others were unwilling, for the sake of two kilograms of pork, he drove his sons and nephews to help.
The deputy captain had the same idea as the captain at this time. Since they were responsible for finding people, he would sign up for his sons and nephews first.
"Where do you want to build the house?" asked the captain, with a hint of impatience in his tone.
Lin Qi pretended to think, and after half a minute, she said, "Let's go to the bullpen. There are fewer people there, and it's quiet."
