Moving is a joyous occasion.
The Lin family plans to celebrate.
Since we're all from the village, there's no need for a big celebration; we'll just gather together for dinner in the evening.
When Lin Weiming went to inform them, the villagers all laughed and said:
“Your family is so lucky these days. The house you built is so beautiful. I’m so envious… Even if you hadn’t come today, we would have gone to see it. The new house is so magnificent. I wish my family could build one someday.”
"Welcome, welcome." Lin Weiming couldn't suppress his smile.
As evening fell, villagers began to arrive at the Lin family's house one after another.
The women carried baskets filled with grains, vegetables, mushrooms, and chestnuts picked from the mountain.
Most villagers are not wealthy and don't have much money to give as gifts, but even a cabbage or a bowl of rice is a heartfelt gift.
The women first took the things to the kitchen, some helped cook, while others went to see the Lin family's new house.
"This house is huge!" Zhao Chunniang exclaimed with envy as she stepped inside.
“That’s right!” The other women nodded in agreement, their mouths tingling with a sour taste. “There are four rooms just for the children. My family alone can’t fit them all.”
"Oh, there's a study here!" A woman pushed open the door to Lin Zhongyuan's study. The others didn't dare to go in and quickly retreated, afraid of disturbing the peace and quiet of his place.
"What's so special about a study? I see that every family in the city has one. The eldest son of the Lin family is a promising student, so he definitely needs a study. Who knows, he might even become the top scholar... Did you see that dining hall? I heard that a great deity is enshrined in there, which is why the Lin family has become so wealthy and built such a nice house!" Old Madam Du said mysteriously as she came over.
Everyone: "Oh~"
I see!
Lin Wanyue was, after all, just a young girl. Although they had heard that she had some skills, they watched her every day, watching her go fishing and playing in the mud without any complaints. She didn't seem to have the demeanor of a fairy.
However, the memorial tablets enshrined in the Lin family's meditation room look different from those elsewhere!
There are four pieces at once!
Doesn't this mean that the Lin family has four great immortals protecting them from all directions?
No wonder the Lin family is so wealthy.
So these people exchanged glances, awkwardly pushing and shoving each other, bowing to the ancestral tablets in the meditation room while muttering prayers, hoping that the tablets would also bless their families with prosperity and the construction of new houses, out of consideration for being from the same village.
Little Pink Butterfly glanced at Laifu beside her and said, "At least you have someone to worship you now. Your life as a ghost is enough."
"Waaah..." Laifu was so moved that he cried his eyes out.
Two thousand years have passed, and people are actually asking him for blessings!
Soon, the aroma of food wafted from the kitchen.
The women hurried to the kitchen to help serve the dishes.
Liu Junlan thanked them for their help in building her house and for their generous meals. In the morning, she asked Lin Weiming to go to town to buy half a pig and various offal.
The pig intestines and some large bones were braised with spices, and the aroma was irresistible as soon as it was opened.
The remaining pork was sliced into pieces, and there were also quite a few large chunks. It was served with various green vegetables, and surprisingly, ten large bowls were prepared, which were laid out on the table in a very presentable manner.
While the villagers were enjoying their meal, Lin Wanyue didn't forget to prepare food for the three ghosts in her house.
Master Cui loved nothing but Hua Zi.
"Even though you're already a little devil, you still need to take care of your health. Don't smoke so fast..." Lin Wanyue burned two cigarettes for him and gave him this advice.
"Alright, alright, of course I know." Master Cui agreed verbally, but then took the cigarette and let it drift away.
Even a fool could tell that Lin Wanyue had gone off to smoke.
Little Pink Butterfly and Lai Fu have similar tastes; they both accept all kinds of candies, creams, milk teas, and pastries.
That evening, after seeing off the last guest, Lin Weiming hurriedly went to take a shower.
"Wife, hehe, wife...we won't have to worry about those two brats at night anymore, hehehe..." Lin Weiming blushed and pulled his wife's hand to his face.
"What are you doing?" Xuefu pulled her hand back, her delicate eyebrows furrowing slightly as she smelled it. "...Have you been drinking?"
Wine is brewed from grains and is very precious.
Even though they bought a lot of meat this time, they didn't buy any alcohol.
“It’s duck…” Lin Weiming grinned foolishly. “That kid Zhou Jiren brought it over. He said it was something the old man had kept for many years. It tasted good, so I tried a little.”
"Go away! With your alcohol tolerance, how dare you drink?" Xuefu shook her head helplessly.
Sure enough, Lin Weiming held her, buried his head in her body, and fell asleep in no time.
Xuefu: "..."
Furious, Xuefu could only push the person aside and curl up in her blanket to go to sleep.
…
"Wanwan, aren't you afraid to sleep alone?" Liu Junlan pushed open Lin Wanyue's bedroom door and sat on the edge of the bed to ask.
"Don't be afraid!" Lin Wanyue nodded, hugging the blanket, her face full of excitement: "Grandma, this big bed is beautiful! I love it!"
The carved wooden bed emitted a faint glow, which was reflected on the snow-white walls, creating a shimmering, moonlit scene.
Lin Diao Diao lay down on the footstool and fell fast asleep.
"Alright, if you're scared at night, come to Grandma's room." Although Liu Junlan was a little worried about her, seeing how much she liked it, she let her go.
