Day two.

Li Wu, who was brought by Aunt Li, came early as agreed to see the piglets.

His original plan was to watch it today and come and catch it tomorrow.

But I never expected that when I saw the fifteen piglets in the litter, all of them had shiny fur, I couldn't take my eyes off them.

Extremely happy.

I immediately decided that I must buy this litter of piglets today no matter what.

"Miss Lin, wait a minute while I go to the next village to hire an ox cart. I'll take all the piglets. I'll give you the money now."

Li Wu had a dark complexion and spoke in a muffled voice, but he looked kind. Lin Acai felt at first glance that he was a real person.

"Uncle Li, go ahead. Don't worry. I'll keep all the piglets for you. As long as I'm here, none of them will be lost."

Lin Acai is good at observing people's words and expressions.

She felt that Aunt Li might have already told him about her grandmother's concern for the piglets, so she promised frankly.

If it were someone else, they would probably take this opportunity to lower the price, but Uncle Li did not do that.

Lin Acai saw all of this and immediately made a decision in her mind.

He will only sell this litter of piglets to Uncle Li, and no one else can even think about it.

"That's good! I'll be back soon. Please keep the money first."

After saying this, General Li Wu took out the fifteen taels of silver he had carried along the way and handed it to Lin Acai without hesitation.

Lin Acai didn't want to take the call at first, but Aunt Li asked her to, so she couldn't refuse and took it.

After taking the silver, Lin Acai suddenly remembered that there was someone else in the room.

He glanced uneasily towards the house.

He is quite sensible.

Didn't show up.

In fact, thinking about what happened yesterday, she felt a little regretful. After so many days, she knew that this man's style of doing things was still quite decent.

At least.

No one had any bad intentions towards her because she was a girl with two little kids.

Just based on this point, he deserves the title of gentleman.

And yesterday, she brazenly said that he wanted to default on her paying ten taels of silver.

It's really hurtful.

"Second girl...what are you thinking about? Why are you so absent-minded?"

Aunt Li looked at Lin Acai holding the purse in a daze, thinking that she was too happy again and was thinking of her father and elder brother.

But it's strange that more than half a month ago, this girl was always in tears and would often go to her against the wall to complain.

How come I suddenly become much more clear now?

It seems that adversity can really make people grow quickly.

Can make people understand...

"Aunt Li, when I have enough money, I want to go to the city and open a clinic that specializes in treating women. What do you think?"

Lin Acai's unreasonable words made Aunt Li suddenly stunned.

Then he reacted and nodded heavily: "Second girl, you have this ability, of course it is a good way to make a living, maybe you can really make a name for yourself in the future!

It is said that it is not uncommon for noble ladies in the city to be like your sister-in-law. If you can think positively and don't care about your reputation as an unmarried woman, it is certainly possible.

...I am just worried that if you get married in the future, your husband’s family will dislike you..."

Lin Acai did not interrupt Aunt Li, but patiently listened to her finish her words.

"Aunt Li...it's okay, I don't care. I've already made up my mind. If no one is willing to marry me...I will never marry.

It’s good to earn money to support myself and my brother. I have already thought about it. When we get to the city, I will send them to school…”

Why not marry?

These words sounded like thunder to Aunt Li, and she shook her head.

This second girl's sacrifice is too great. She even wants to stay with her two younger brothers for the rest of her life and not get married.

Oh my...poor child, how come you suddenly became an orphan?

Aunt Li was soft-hearted and couldn't bear to see the person in front of her suffer such a fate and yet be so sensible. She couldn't help but pull Lin Acai's hand and admonish her:

"My child, listen to your aunt and don't think about not getting married yet. When you come to this world, you never know what kind of people you will meet and what kind of things you will encounter.

You should be more open-minded. Maybe your future husband doesn’t care about what you do at all. It’s also possible…”

Next to the pigsty, the conversation between the two women had already been heard by the man inside through the wide open window.

Don't know why.

When he heard that she was not going to marry, his heart suddenly trembled for no reason.

It's a bit confusing.

Could it be?

Did he misunderstand her yesterday?

She didn't even care about her own reputation, so how could she play tricks on him and deliberately tease him?

For the sake of her two younger brothers, she gave up her marriage.

As for this kind of dedication, I'm afraid no girl would easily promise to do so.

Thinking of this, he suddenly lowered his head and touched the arrow wound above his chest with his hand.

He suddenly felt that Miss Lin's plan to open a clinic was not groundless, nor was it just empty talk.

Before I knew it, a long time had passed and the noise outside became louder again.

The little piglets are screaming at the top of their lungs!

Several times, Xiao Jue couldn't help but look outside.

When the piglets' cries gradually died down, he guessed that they had been caught and put on the ox cart.

Just about to lie down again.

Suddenly, Fubao was heard shouting, "The old witch is coming! The old witch is coming!"

Their grandmother had already appeared at the foot of the mountain.

It was about a mile away from their yard.

Seeing the last piglet successfully boarded the ox cart, Li Wu had already tied the door of the wooden box securely.

Lin Acai looked calm.

No panic at all.

What's the harm in coming?

It was too late. No matter how much she made a fuss, the piglets had already been loaded onto the ox cart. How could she get them down?

"Aunt Li, I think you should stop waiting and go home quickly to ask Brother Dazhuang to drive the old sow back. Otherwise, when the old witch comes and sees the piglets being sold, she will inevitably set her sights on the sow again."

"But... your brother Dazhuang's wages for his work will not be settled until tomorrow. I haven't paid you yet, so how can you drive the sow over... This... is not good..."

Aunt Li hesitated before telling the truth, and was obviously a little embarrassed.

"Oh, Aunt Li, is this a big deal? You're overthinking it. Go back quickly! There's no rush for the money. Let's drive the sow into the pigsty first."

As Lin Acai spoke, she pushed Aunt Li who was still hesitating.

Aunt Li was stunned for a while, but was finally persuaded to come to her senses. She gritted her teeth and said, "Okay! I'll go back and call Da Zhuang."

As a result, when the cheap hind pig stepped into their yard, the old sow and the piglets had disappeared.

She didn't see a single hair.

Before, Lin Acai was wondering why the old witch hadn't shown up yet since Brother Dazhuang and Aunt Li had driven the old sow into the pigsty.

It turned out that the old witch accidentally broke her leg a few days ago.

She was lame!

Feelings did not show up——

It was all because of her own legs and feet.
