Others are fleeing famine, but I am a salted fish

Hearing the sound, Old Man Lin limped out of the main room with a face as black as the bottom of a pot.

Lin Xiaoyue glared at Dazhi who was being helped up by Zhang, and warned him coldly, "The betrothal gift that the old lady of the Lin family received, you should go and ask for it yourself. Our family has severed the relationship with them, we will not take the blame for them, so get out of here if you know what's good for you. If I see you harassing my family again, you will be carried back on a stretcher next time!"

Dazhi had never seen a woman as fierce and aggressive as Lin Xiaoyue. With the help of Zhang, he stood up from the ground tremblingly, raised his hand tremblingly, pointed at Lin Xiaoyue, and opened and closed his mouth for a long time but couldn't fart.

He swept his eyes around the Lin family yard, and finally, he looked pitifully at Lin Zhaodi for help, hoping that she would remember their past friendship and stop the ghostly and brutal Lin Sanya.

Unfortunately, after the engagement was cancelled, Lin Zhaodi saw the true face of this family and helped him suppress her own San Ya?

Want to eat fart!

What's more, this marriage was originally arranged privately by Old Lady Lin. Lin Zhaodi knew very well that Old Lady Lin did not arrange this marriage for her, which seemed quite good in the eyes of outsiders, just because she loved her granddaughter.

In fact, it was because Dazhi's father was seriously ill at that time, and he needed to find a wife as soon as possible. Moreover, when Dazhi was engaged, he was just a student. If it weren't for the greed for the three taels of engagement money, Mrs. Lin would not have been so bored as to arrange a marriage for the maid from the third room.

In the end, the marriage was arranged, but before the wedding could take place, Dazhi's father died of illness. However, the other party did not mention canceling the marriage because they were afraid of what others would say. It was delayed until three years later when Dazhi passed the imperial examination and the family finally had the confidence to cancel the marriage.

In fact, Lin Zhaodi had no feelings about the engagement from the beginning to the end, so when the man proposed to cancel the engagement, she didn't care at all. At most, the cancellation of the engagement would damage her reputation and make her parents feel guilty, and they would feel choked because they were unable to save the situation.

Therefore, in Lin Xiaoyue's view, the scholar's frequent pleading glances at her were just like flirting with a blind man.

Sure enough, Lin Zhaodi didn't even glance at the other person. She turned around to pick up the things she had just thrown on the ground, then took the weak-legged Lin mother from Lin Xiaoyue's hands, and turned into the kitchen to prepare breakfast.

Lin Xiaoyue freed her hands, grabbed the mother and son by the neck in one hand each, had them dragged out of the yard, and threw them out of the house.

Xiao Si and Xiao Wu followed Lin Xiaoyue closely with their short legs. When Lin Xiaoyue walked, they followed. When Lin Xiaoyue stopped, they stopped at the gate of the courtyard. They tilted their heads and blinked their eyes, watching Sister San Ya punish the two big fools. They found it very interesting.

Before Lin Xiaoyue could say anything to drive them away, the mother and son had already had difficulty breathing due to Lin Xiaoyue's sharp gaze. They lost all their souls and retreated on their buttocks.

"Oh my God, someone is killing someone!" Finally, unable to withstand the fierce murderous aura emanating from Lin Xiaoyue, Zhang and Dazhi were so scared that they screamed and their faces turned pale. They fled in panic, their speed was so fast that it seemed as if they were being chased by a ghost.

Gee tut.

How dare you come and cause trouble with just this little courage?

Really tired of living.

Lin Xiaoyue sneered coldly, turned around with Xiaosi and Xiaowu, and met the solemn expression of Old Man Lin.

Compared with Lin Xiaoyue's indifference, Xiao Si and Xiao Wu are still afraid of Old Man Lin's stern face.

"Come with me." Old Man Lin said, turned around and moved towards the backyard with his crutches.

Lin Xiaoyue was stunned for a moment, then looked up at the sky, and estimated that even if she went to the town now, she would be in a hurry. So she decided to talk to Old Man Lin first to see if she could persuade his stubborn mind, so that when the disaster came, she would not have to protect her family and escape the famine, and she would also have to worry about people from the old house popping up from time to time, doing bad things and instigating Old Man Lin to cause internal divisions, which would be a big trouble.

So, Lin Xiaoyue decided to put off going to town for a while.

Xiao Si and Xiao Wu held Lin Xiaoyue's hands. They were still not very reassured about Old Man Lin's attitude. They were worried that Old Man Lin would talk to Lin Xiaoyue alone to scold her, so even though the two girls were afraid of Old Man Lin's majesty, they still held Lin Xiaoyue's hands tightly and refused to let go.

Lin Xiaoyue lowered her head, smiled and comforted the two little ones, motioning them to go to the kitchen to help Lin's mother and Lin Zhaodi make breakfast first, and then eat obediently, she would be back soon.

Obviously, Lin's mother and Lin Zhaodi in the kitchen also heard the voice of Lin's father calling Lin Xiaoyue. The mother and daughter stood at the kitchen door and looked at Lin Xiaoyue worriedly.

Lin Xiaoyue waved to them, indicating that there was no problem.

When they arrived at the backyard, Father Lin unexpectedly got straight to the point and asked Lin Xiaoyue bluntly, "Is it really impossible to save the broken relationship?"

Lin Xiaoyue raised her eyebrows, quite surprised that Father Lin, who usually always tried to smooth things over, asked directly without beating around the bush.

Lin Xiaoyue thought: Isn’t that obvious?

She thought that Father Lin was very calm and composed. In fact, when Lin Xiaoyue lowered her head to think about how to persuade Father Lin, she saw Father Lin's trembling hands and realized that Father Lin was just holding on.

Father Lin, who looked strong on the outside but weak on the inside, was in extreme anxiety just like his shaking hands. I think Father Lin should have figured it out in the past half month. How the old house treated his family over the years, anyone with eyes could see it.

Lin Xiaoyue sighed, stretched out her hand to help the trembling old man Lin sit down next to the stone mortar in the backyard, and then she leaned on her father and sat next to him. Trying to sound less aggressive, she said to old man Lin, "Dad, we all know that you are a very filial person. But last time, the people in the old house wanted to sell me out, although they failed. But if they want to target us sisters again in the future, can you stop them?"

……

"Dad, do you still remember my elder sister?"

When San Ya suddenly mentioned her eldest daughter, Old Man Lin was stunned for a moment, and his face looked a little ugly.

The eldest daughter is his first child, so naturally he has the deepest feelings for her and feels guilty for not being able to protect her.

Lin Xiaoyue did not stop talking just because of Lin's father's ugly face. In the original owner's memory, the eldest sister was really kind, gentle, and caring to the younger sisters, and always protected them no matter what happened.

Unlike her second sister Lin Zhaodi who would always stand up for the younger ones when things got in trouble, her presence was subtle and silent. No matter which of the younger ones were bullied, beaten or scolded, the eldest sister would always hug them, protect them under her wings, and shelter them from the wind and rain.
