The little Fubao in the deserted village made all the dignitaries in the court go crazy with envy

The distance from Yuxi Village to Shangdong Village is quite long, and even if you take a shortcut it still takes an hour or so.

It was already dark when the Zhang family finally returned home.

By then, the Lin family had already finished dinner.

While it was still dark and the moonlight was shining brightly, Lin Huaisong and Lin Huaibai, holding kettles and ladles in their hands, walked around the yard to water the gentiana growing in the corner.

Turning his head to look at the adults sitting and chatting under the eaves, Lin Huaisong sighed with an air of old-fashionedness, "Grandma, uncle, aunt, and uncle, they really are not unhappy at all, they are really generous."

Lin Huaibai squatted down, and gently stroked the leaves of the Hundred-Angle Grass in front of him with his small hands. He snorted in a way that didn't match his movements, "I'm not happy. Why should our good things be shared with the Zhang family? They are all bad guys, greedy and evil!"

Now the two kids don’t even want to call them grandpa and grandma.

Lin Huaisong also squatted down, frowning, "They are stealing our Hundred-phase Grass now, will they take over all our business in the future and make us unable to make any money?"

"Of course. When they were selling buns in town, didn't they complain that the buns sold by other families were not clean and that eating them would cause diarrhea, vomiting and diarrhea?"

"Oh, it would be nice if I didn't have to give them the Hundred-Angle Grass. I'd rather give it to the grandparents in the village than let them grow it at home."

The children didn't dare let the adults hear them, and they kept muttering to themselves with their heads down.

After Baixiang threw the green ball to Baixiang grass, he also squatted down like his brothers, holding his cheeks with his little hands, "Don't be unhappy, bad people can't grow my Baixiang grass."

"How do you know? Will the Hundred-Angled Grass choose the good or the bad?"

"I just know it, just believe me!" The little girl smiled with her eyes curved, as if she had no worries at all.

Baixiangcao will not choose between bad people and good people, she will choose.

Moreover, the Hundred-Angled Grass was too far away from her, so she couldn't survive.

Grandma was so smart. She agreed to the Zhang family's conditions, allowing my aunt to break off the engagement and making sure the Zhang family got nothing.

Grandma Lin, who was regarded as very smart by her granddaughter, had no idea that the herb could not survive if it was far away from home. She fanned away mosquitoes with a palm-leaf fan and discussed with her son and daughter-in-law about going to Shangdong Village in three days.

"Mom, is it really decided? This was originally the only business of our family..." Zhang Cui'e was unhappy. After calming down from her excitement, she began to feel sorry for her family's business of growing the herb.

Mrs. Lin smiled and said, "Whether it's unique or not, so what? We don't seek to be rich or powerful, as long as we can live a stable life, that's enough."

Li Sulan also joked, "You always think that whatever mom says is right and whatever mom does is right. Why do you keep nagging me now that mom has made a decision?"

"How can they be the same? I'm not saying that I want to keep it all to myself. As long as mother has decided, I won't say much about who our business gets. But I will feel uncomfortable if it is given to the Zhang family. Coming from that family, I know them best. They won't remember our kindness. Once the Hundred-Angle Grass is planted, they will come back to take a bite out of us and destroy the little business we have." This is what makes Zhang Cui'e most angry and feel the most guilty towards her family.

"Don't think too much. How can they mess with our family? We only do business with the old doctor on our one-third acre of land. I trust the old doctor's character, and the Zhang family can't take it away." Lin Dashan said in a relaxed tone.

I told my mother that what our family wants is not wealth and honor, but a stable life is a great blessing.

They are not greedy.

At worst, I can just do business with Sifang Pharmacy on those two acres of land, and the income will be enough for my life.

Old man Lin was also enjoying the cool air on a recliner at this moment. When he looked up, he saw the sky full of stars and the moonlight as bright as water.

He was in a very good mood. "We will go to Zhang's house in three days. The eldest brother will go to the old village chief's house to borrow an ox cart. You go with Erhe and Cui'e. The Zhang family wants us to give them medicinal seedlings. We dare not make trouble this time. They will definitely give us the broken engagement letter without hesitation. When this matter is settled, our family will live happily."

Zhang Cui'e unconsciously clasped her fingers together, "Dad, you don't blame me. Once the news of the broken engagement gets out, no matter what the reason is, I will cause trouble for my family and cause gossip."

Old Man Lin turned his head to look at her, his eyes gentle, "Right and wrong are in the hearts of the people. We Lin family members always act with our heads held high. People who don't know us, let them say whatever they want. People who know us won't just follow the crowd. What's the big deal about some rumors? Don't be afraid. Life is short, so we should be kind to others and ourselves."

"Yeah, yeah!" Zhang Cui'e lowered her head, big tears falling on the back of her hands.

Beside her, the man's strong hand covered the back of her hand, his palm warm.

The others seemed not to notice her tears and continued to chat and laugh cheerfully, enjoying the peaceful moment.

"Hey, old lady, look at my face. Does it look better? I feel full of energy lately, as if I could sit up at any time."

"Come on, you think the moonlight is the sun? Who can tell whether you look good or bad in the middle of the night? At first glance, our family's faces are all black."

"After hearing what Dad said, I feel the same way. Dad, Mom, I used my right hand to hold the chopsticks today, and they didn't fall to the ground!"

"Oh, how can I, as your elder brother, not catch up with you? Look at my left eye. Do you believe me when I say that my left eye can see you clearly?"

"..."

"Puchi! My son and I are totally unruly!"

"Hahahaha!"

The moonlight gently enveloped this small courtyard full of laughter. Under the night sky, the faint fragrance of the herb lingered in the nostrils of everyone in the Lin family.

Breaking off an engagement is a big deal, and people in the village who heard the news couldn't help but talk about it.

Every household in Yuxi Village who had not yet gone to bed was talking about this matter.

The old village chief lives in the east end of the village. His two sons are married, and there are eleven people from three generations living together. It is quite lively at this time.

"The Lin family has paid a huge price this time. It's such a loss. Originally, this was their family's only business. After the family adds land, we dare not imagine how much they can earn. They will definitely be very successful. Now, in order to help their daughter-in-law break off the engagement, they are really willing to give up such a good business. Just wait and see, the Zhang family in Shangdong Village is not like that. They won't remember their kindness at all and are trying hard to snatch their business. Aren't they stupid?" Lin Wen, the wife of the village chief, shook her head. She really couldn't understand how the Lin family could be so generous. As an outsider, she felt sorry for them.

The eldest daughter-in-law of the old village chief was moved, and she tried to probe the father-in-law who was smoking a pipe in silence opposite, "Dad, after the Lin family gave the medicinal seedlings to the Zhang family, it is no longer the only business. In my opinion, it is better to let everyone in our village make money together than to let people like the Zhang family make money. The village will be better off, and everyone will be grateful to the Lin family. Dad, the old village chief will also become the first enviable village official in the surrounding area, and then you will be able to stand out in front of the town guards-"
