Chapter 251 Leaving



On the other side, Lu Yanzhou, who was eating dumplings with his head down, nodded slightly, then took a sip of the hot soup noodles.

I had eaten these dumplings before at the Lin family, and they tasted exactly the same. However, I didn’t expect to be able to pick shepherd’s purse at this time of year. I guess Lin Yunchu must have spent a long time looking for it in the fields.

If he had known that when Xiao Er said he wanted to eat dumplings yesterday, he would not have shown that he also wanted to eat them.

Seeing Lu Yanzhou's response, Xiao Er was even happier. He thought to himself, I didn't expect this thing to be so delicious. When he goes back and wants to eat it in the future, he can ask his own chef to make it.

Two days later.

Lu Yanzhou got up early, washed up, and went to the woodshed in his backyard. When he opened the door, he thought he would see Xiao Er leaning on the couch reading a book as usual.

The room was completely silent, with the original bedding neatly folded, as if no one had slept there all night. If it weren't for a hundred-liang silver note lying quietly on the bed, he would have suspected that there was something wrong with his eyes.

Yesterday, he was discussing academic matters with Xiao Er here, and he didn't hear Xiao Er mention leaving. If it weren't for the one hundred taels of silver note, he would really think that someone had come and kidnapped Xiao Er.

Lu Yanzhou took two steps forward and picked up the silver note worth one hundred taels. Thinking of the scene that day when he and Lin Yunchu both refused to accept it, he didn't expect that Xiao Er still kept the silver note here.

I thought it must be the followers he mentioned who came to find me, so they left quietly together.

Lu Yanzhou sighed lightly, carried the bedding back to the front room, took the one hundred taels of silver note and went to the Lin family.

After listening to what Lu Yanzhou said, Lin Yunchu felt a little emotional as she held the one hundred taels of silver that Lu Yanzhou stuffed into her hand.

Although he was not clear about Xiao Er's identity, after spending the past few days with him, he knew that Xiao Er was probably not a bad person. What's more, Lin Changan seemed to like him quite a bit.

If I wait for Lin Changan to come back at night and find out that Xiao Er left so quietly, I'm afraid he will be sad.

"It's okay. I think his followers must have come looking for him. As long as he's okay, it's fine."

This is probably the best outcome. Xiao Er's injuries have almost healed, and Lu Yanzhou has stayed at home for several days, so it's time for him to go back to the academy.

Now that Xiao Er has left, everything has returned to the way it was before.

Thinking that Lu Yanzhou was about to take part in the Autumn Examination and would need money for many purposes, Lin Yunchu handed over the banknotes in her hand. She was not short of money now, and she had no use for the banknotes left by Xiao Er.

"You should keep it."

Lu Yanzhou shook his head. Lin Yunchu understood and folded the banknote in half and put it in his pocket. He said softly, "Then I'll keep it for now. If I meet Brother Xiao in the future, I'll return it to him."

Although he and Lu Yanzhou saved him together, he had already given Lin Yunchu a jade pendant, which looked very valuable. He could not accept the silver note of one hundred taels.

If I have the chance to meet him again, I will return it to him.

During the days that Xiao Er stayed at the Lu family, apart from spending two taels of silver on the doctor, he also had some food delivered to them every day, so he didn't spend that much money.

Lu Yanzhou nodded. He thought the same as Lin Yunchu. He thought Xiao Er was knowledgeable and didn't look like a bad person.

If you meet him again in the future, just return the banknote to him.

After Xiao Er left, Lu Yanzhou didn't dare to delay any longer and hurried back to the academy.

The days in Qingxi Village did not change because of Xiao Er. Everything went on as usual day after day, and everything returned to peace.

Soon it was time to plant potatoes. Every day, Lin Yunchu and his father led the villagers to plow the land and plant. Qingxi Village was bustling with activity.

The business of the Lin family workshop gradually got on track, and many people came to the door, wanting to buy Lin's potato flour.

Lin Yunchu asked his father and mother to find two more people in the village to help in his workshop. The people in the village were even more attentive when they saw the Lin family.

Everyone knows that working as a helper in the Lin family workshop is not tiring and the pay is high. Most importantly, it is in the village and you can go home every day.

Thinking of this, everyone tried even harder to get close to the Lin family. When the Lin family workshop needed to recruit people again in the future, they would be given priority.

Lin Yunchu looked at Li Lanxiang, who was hiding herself in the crowd, and felt amused.

She came here in the first place because of Li Lanxiang and Wang Erniu, but she was busy making money every day and didn't think about them at all, as long as they didn't come up to her and provoke her.

She didn't take the previous events too seriously. At first, it was because Lin Qingshan and Lin Changping went to the Li and Wang families and scolded them.

The two of them did not dare to bully Lin Yunchu like they did in the past, and now the Lin family was the object of flattery by everyone in the village.

The two were warned by their families not to cause trouble for Lin Yunchu again, otherwise they would definitely be punished.

At first, the two families were worried that the Lin family would not take them to plant potatoes because of this, and they were anxious for a long time. If all the families in the village followed the Lin family to plant potatoes, only their family would be left behind.

From then on, everyone's life became better, so wouldn't their family be able to only eat coarse food? Fortunately, the Lin family didn't make a fuss about their two families in the end, so they were completely relieved.

Now, let alone wanting to bully the Lin family, if anyone in the village speaks ill of the Lin family behind their backs, they will probably be drowned in everyone's saliva.

This time, the Lin family did not charge everyone for the potato seeds. Not only did the helpers hired for the Lin family's workshop come from the village, but even when the Lin family needed manpower on the fields,

The workers were all recruited from the village, and the daily wages they were paid were much higher than those for temporary jobs in the town. Everyone knew that this was because the Lin family took into consideration that everyone was from the same village.

That's why I want to help out. Otherwise, with such high wages, it would be hard to find people anywhere. Now, who in the surrounding area doesn't envy the people in Qingxi Village?

No one's heart is made of stone. The Lin family treats everyone very well. Now everyone's life is much better than before. Every now and then they can cut a piece of meat to satisfy their hunger.

Moreover, after this crop of potatoes is harvested, there will be no shortage of food this winter. We won’t have to go hungry anymore and can have a comfortable New Year.

Father Lin now listened to Lin Yunchu's words and no longer forced his family members to do the work in his own fields. When it came to planting, weeding and harvesting, he would find helpers in the village.

Her family felt a lot more relaxed, and the people in the village also had something to do and could get paid. When Lin Yunchu walked in the village, people would often greet her.

I also saw many people starting to wear new clothes.
