Wei Xiao sighed softly, gently pinched Lin Qinghuan's fair and smooth face, and sighed, "We still have to wait a long time."
Lin Qinghuan nestled in Wei Xiao's arms, gently poking his chest with her finger. "It'll be a while since then. I'll be seventeen this year. In a little over a year, we can get married."
Wei Xiao reached out and put his arm around Lin Qinghuan's slender waist. The two bodies pressed tightly together. He felt the soft flesh of Lin Qinghuan's chest and his mind wandered.
Lin Qinghuan felt Wei Xiao's body was burning hot, and his face was also very red. The two hot bodies were stuck together.
Wei Xiao's body reacted, and he hurriedly released Lin Qinghuan, stood up, and tried to calm his desire.
After a long pause, Wei Xiao looked at Lin Qinghuan and said, "Qinghuan, I have two and a half days of leave left. After that, I have to go back to the army. It may be a long time before we see each other again."
After hearing Wei Xiaoxiao's words, Lin Qinghuan looked at Wei Xiaoxiao with reluctance in her eyes.
Wei Xiao looked at Lin Qinghuan's beautiful eyes with longing in them, wishing he could stay with her every moment. However, it was late at night, and staying in Lin Qinghuan's room would make the Lin family think too much.
Reaching out to touch Lin Qinghuan's face, Wei Xiao said softly, "I can't stay in your room forever. You should get some rest. See you tomorrow."
Lin Qinghuan's bright eyes instantly dimmed, and she lowered her head in disappointment. The thought of not seeing Wei Xiao for a long time in the future made her reluctant to let him leave.
Wei Xiao reached out and hugged Lin Qinghuan, kissed her on the forehead, and quickly walked out of Lin Qinghuan's room.
Lin Qinghuan closed the door to her room, turned off the lights, and went to sleep.
next day
When Lin Qinghuan woke up, there was a commotion in the courtyard. Lin Qinghuan listened carefully and realized that it was her uncle and grandfather who had arrived.
Lin Qinghuan quickly got up, put the gauze on her face, and hurried to the yard. She looked at Grandpa Lin and Uncle Lin and greeted them one by one.
"Qinghuan, I'm relieved to see you're alright." Uncle Lin said, looking at Lin Qinghuan's face and asking worriedly, "The injury on your face..."
Uncle Lin paused here, his eyes filled with reluctance.
"I'm fine, I won't die, at most I'll have a scar on my face," Lin Qinghuan said calmly.
Grandpa Lin's face darkened with anger. He glared at Lin's father and said with dissatisfaction, "Lin Piaoxue not only stole all the money in the house, but also viciously slashed Qinghuan's face. It's all because you, a good-for-nothing, failed to raise your daughter properly, which allowed Lin Piaoxue to act so recklessly and arrogantly."
Mr. Lin looked at Mr. Lin with a bitter expression. He was helpless because his daughter, Lin Piaoxue, treated him the way she did.
Uncle Lin looked at Father Lin with sympathy, "Second son, if you urgently need money, I can lend it to you. You can pay me back whenever you have the money."
"Thank you, brother. Qinghuan gave me over two hundred yuan, which should be enough for a while."
Mr. Lin declined Mr. Lin's offer of help.
Lin Qinghuan looked at her uncle and asked with a smile, "Uncle, can you lend me ten thousand yuan? I'll pay you back later, okay?"
"Sure, but what do you need so much money for?" Uncle Lin asked curiously.
Lin Qinghuan sighed, "I desperately protected the money and prevented the robbers from taking it, hoping that my family's life would become prosperous so that I could marry Wei Xiao in peace and not be bothered by my family's affairs."
"But my hopes were dashed by Lin Piaoxue. I lent you 10,000 yuan so that my father could open a small brick factory and buy a horse-drawn cart. We could then use our own cart to help transport bricks to nearby villages, and it would also make it easier for us to go to the city," Lin Qinghuan said eloquently.
Lin's father and the three brothers looked at Lin Qinghuan in disbelief. They never expected that she would borrow such a large sum of money from her uncle for the sake of the family. What if she lost it?
Grandpa Lin slapped Lin's father on the head, looked at Lin's father and the three Lin brothers, and said angrily, "If you ever treat Qinghuan badly again, I'll skin you alive."
Lin's father and the three Lin brothers all shook their heads, indicating that they would treat Lin Qinghuan well.
Lin Qinghuan smiled indifferently. She had two boxes of jewelry and ginseng in her space. The one thing she had in abundance right now was money.
Moreover, the necklace was left to her by Grandma Lin. She couldn't enjoy wealth and luxury herself, but instead let the Lin family live in poverty. That was too ungrateful of her roots.
Lin Qinghuan smiled brightly at Wei Xiao, then turned around to wash up.
Uncle Lin patted Father Lin on the shoulder and said with deep emotion, "Mother has such good judgment. She saw that Qinghuan was a good child from a young age. You must treat Qinghuan well, otherwise how will you face your mother after you pass away?"
“Brother, Qinghuan is my daughter, of course I love her,” said Lin’s father.
When Wei Xiao heard Lin's father's words, a hint of mockery flashed in his eyes. Qing Huan had suffered so much in the past, and now she was saying such things. Didn't her conscience hurt?
Lin's father looked at Wei Xiao with a speechless expression. He had already been merciful enough not to burn Qing Huan alive when that wandering ghost possessed her body.
Lin Qinghuan pulled Wei Xi aside, handed him a glass of water, and urged, "Drink it quickly!"
Wei Xiao smiled and took the cup, then gulped down the water in a few mouthfuls.
"The water Qinghuan poured is just delicious."
Lin Qinghuan smiled smugly. She had added spiritual spring water to the water, so it naturally tasted better than ordinary water.
