Chapter 102: Sowing Dissension



Lin Anru refused, and the driver did not mention the refund of the fare.

Admiration is admiration, but life is life.

Although the driver did not return the money to Lin Anru, he took her directly to the place where she could catch the bus in town, saving Lin Anru a lot of time.

"Young man, study hard. When you pass the exam and come back, I can brag to others about my car. It's the one that carried the scholar!"

"Thank you for your good wishes." Lin Anru bowed to him.

When Lin Anru was not at home, Liu felt like she was missing a soul and couldn't even sleep peacefully.

"Mom, do you want to drink porridge for your nose too?"

Lin Shiyu stood on the chair and reached out to take the spoon from her hand. She was just a little bit away from it, and she suspected that Liu would choke to death on the porridge.

Liu turned a deaf ear to her words and only realized later that she had snatched the spoon from her hand.

"Hey! I wonder how your father is doing?"

Without a spoon, Liu completely gave up eating breakfast and put the bowl directly on the table. She had no appetite anyway.

"Mom, my dad is going there to study, not to work for a living. What could happen?"

Lin Shiyu was speechless. Her father was not a child. How could he not take care of himself at such a grown-up?

"That's right, Mom. Dad is just studying. He's inside the house all day long. You might as well worry about me than him. At least when I go out, I'm basically always under the sun. It's not surprising that I faint from the heat."

Lin Boyu resonated, his mother just thought too much.

"You're so heartless that you didn't even see your dad off when he went on a long trip, and you actually went back home to sleep in."

Although my daughter has already explained it, no matter how tired or sleepy she is, can't she wait another half hour before going to bed?

Lin Boyu lowered his head and drank the porridge. It was so delicious.

"It's not far. Mom is really worried about Dad, so let's go to the county town to look for him. The round-trip fare is about ten cents, and we have enough money at home."

Lin Shiyu sincerely gave a solution to the problem.

It only takes half a day to get from here to the county town by oxcart. In modern times, it only takes about an hour to drive there. It's quite close.

"No, no, with this money, wouldn't it be nice for the three of us, mother and children, to buy some meat and eat it?"

Lin Boyu, who was drinking porridge with his head down, immediately looked up: "If mom doesn't go, can we buy meat today?"

"Buy your big head." Liu picked up the porridge in her bowl and finished it in one gulp: "I'm going to go see your aunt. You two remember to clean up the dishes."

Ever since the day Lin Boyu was instructed by Lin Shiyu to make rice rolls, all the work in the kitchen has been tacitly assigned to Lin Boyu.

Lin Anyi had been lying in bed for two days, feeling uncomfortable all over. All she did was sleep and be in a daze. She couldn't even get up secretly for a walk because Old Lady Lin and Chang Lin took turns watching her.

Even her father, who was obviously unhappy, stared at her at the door from time to time.

So painful~

She thought, cooking, sweeping the floor, or fetching water were all fine, as long as she could get up and move around, she would never complain.

Ah! She really is a worthless person. Lying down is more tiring than working.

After trying to get up secretly for who knows how many times and being discovered by Old Mrs. Lin, Old Mrs. Lin couldn't bear to see her miserable look, so she told the other members of the Lin family about her efforts to protect the fetus.

Logically speaking, she was not even three months pregnant, so this matter should not be publicized, but Old Mrs. Lin did not really believe it, so she let it spread, as her daughter was more important.

The first reason why I didn't notify other members of the Lin family before was that I didn't want everyone to know and disturb my daughter's rest. The second reason was that I was concerned about Mr. Lin's mood.

Grandpa Lin was already unhappy that his daughter and son-in-law were going back to live with her parents for a long time. If this matter were to spread out and let the villagers know, Grandpa Lin didn't know what would happen.

This is the custom here. If you want Mr. Lin not to care, it is not a simple matter, but a matter for the entire village and the entire town.

After all, people's words are scary. Living in this world, you can never escape being talked about by outsiders.

As soon as the news of Lin Anyi's pregnancy preservation came out, Zhang brought several children to visit her and chatted with her for a while.

Lin Anyi felt much better after someone chatted with her. When they left, Chang Lin gave each of the three children a gift of one hundred coins.

Not long after Zhang and her three children left, Sun also came with her two children.

After the busy farming season, Lin Anji had to go to serve in the army, and she was also busy, so when Lin Anyi came over the day before yesterday, she didn't have time to greet her. They just chatted for a few words and had no idea that she was pregnant.

As soon as Mrs. Lin told her this morning, she put down what she was doing and brought the few remaining eggs in the house to Lin Anyi.

"Thank you, sister-in-law!"

"We're a family, there's no need to be so polite. The most important thing right now is the one in your belly. Even if you're tired of lying down, just lie down properly."

Sun looked at her enviously. Even if she needed to protect the fetus, being able to get pregnant and give birth to a child was a good thing.

She's nothing like me. She can't get pregnant even if she wants to.

Lin Anyi is a dozen years younger than Lin Anji and the others, and a dozen years older than the next generation. So many people in the Lin family get along well with her and speak to her more casually.

"I know, sister-in-law."

Lin Anyi agreed obediently. It was obvious that Sun had been warned by Old Lady Lin that if she didn't agree, someone would have to come and persuade her later.

"It's good to know. To know this woman..."

"Sister-in-law, did anything big happen in my second brother's family after I got married? Why do I feel like Shijie has changed so much?"

Not wanting to listen to her sister-in-law's nagging, Lin Anyi quickly changed the subject.

Before she got married, her brothers loved her, and she loved her nephews and nieces, and had a lot of fun playing with them.

Except for Lin Shiyu, who had always lived with her grandfather, she thought she was familiar with all the children in the family, so she noticed the changes in Lin Shijie at a glance.

She used to be a little girl who spoke in a low voice and avoided people's eyes, but this time she came back and looked very different. Although she still kept her head down, her voice had changed.

He spoke softly but clearly, and he no longer avoided people's gazes. There was also an inexplicable arrogance about him.

This change seems a bit big!

Sun heard that Lin Shijie was silent in advance, and Liu came in when she was silent.

"What are you talking about?"

"What else can we talk about? It's just family matters..."

Lin Anyi’s favorite person is his third sister-in-law. She just talked about the previous topic without her even saying anything.

After hearing this, Liu was silent for a moment.

Lin Anyi was confused and thought there was something fishy going on.

"Listen to my third sister-in-law's advice and stay away from your second brother's family."

After saying this, Liu immediately stopped talking. What she said just now sounded like she was trying to sow discord!
