Quick Wear: If I Had Regret Medicine

Chapter 92 The Drowned Cousin 9

But now that things have developed to this point, he can only accept it.

The next morning, Shen got up, packed up and headed towards the river.

Xuanhe was at home alone. She had not gone out anywhere today and was packing her things.

Around noon, Chen Chang arrived with his men.

He was followed by a famous matchmaker from the next village, and her loud voice could be heard before he even entered the house.

"Oh, good things are coming! Look, the magpies at the door are chirping. Aunt Lin, are you home?"

The matchmaker was very pleasing to the eye, with a chubby face. She helped many people find love, and was well-known in all the surrounding villages.

Of course the matchmaker knew that all the Lin family members were at home, so she made special inquiries and only came over after it was agreed.

She looked at the wide-open door and led her people straight in.

If Chen Chang hadn't given her a lot of money, she would actually not be very willing to make this trip.

Although she had been a matchmaker for countless people, she could never see how Chen Chang and the second daughter of the Lin family were a good match.

The two of them will definitely not be happy in the future.

"It's Sister Wang, come in quickly." Grandma Lin has been waiting for the Chen family to come today.

However, when she saw the person coming, her face still looked a little bad.

When ordinary families come to propose marriage, it is necessary to invite a matchmaker, but the parents must at least come along.

The matchmaker and Chen Chang came to Chen's house, but his parents were not there, which showed that they were not interested in the matter at all.

I don't know what he was holding in his hand, but it looked very perfunctory.

But in this matter, she did not do anything to support her second granddaughter.

Since the moment her second granddaughter pushed Lin Xuanhe into the river, she no longer took this person seriously.

So how she lives after getting married is her business, and whether she lives or dies is none of her business.

A long time ago, although the second granddaughter was not as likable as the eldest granddaughter, she was at least honest.

During this period of time, I have been very careful every time I eat or work. I don’t know how I developed this character.

Lin Ruru, who was in the room, had not gotten out of bed yet because she had a fever all night.

However, it is not her turn to step in today's matter. Mrs. Liu and Grandma Lin can handle it alone.

Listening to people outside talking about her marriage to Chen Chang, she felt like the sky was falling.

She regretted very much that she had not planned this matter well. The reason why her plan failed was because of its poor planning.

She just couldn't bear to see Lin Xuanhe living such a good life. There were only two granddaughters in the Lin family, but Lin Xuanhe didn't have to do any work.

Moreover, why was Shen so good to Xuanhe when both Liu and Shen had only one daughter?

Even though she was unwilling at this moment, she did not dare to torture herself because she was seriously ill and could not get out of bed.

In this day and age, a cold can take a person's life, so she has been listening to Yugi obediently from yesterday until today.

The matchmaker and the Lin family discussed the matter very quickly and the wedding was set for a month later.

Logically speaking, Lin Ruru has brothers and sisters who are not married, but this was an accident after all, and people in the countryside sometimes don’t care so much.

Xuanhe sat in her room, listening to what was happening outside and looking at Chen Chang's happy expression. She imagined what the scene would be like when Lin Rourou married him.

The Lin family had been silent these days, but soon they became noisy again because of the Lin family's house construction.

Shen went to Dahe and told Lin Yuan what had happened in the past few days. If she could come back, she would have come back with him long ago.

He also told Lin Yuan about the plan to build a house, and that the twenty taels of silver he got from the division of the family property should be used wisely.

Because Lin Yuan was not at home, there were many things to do regarding building the house.

There were many things that Shen couldn't do, so she could only go to Shen's house and call Uncle Shen over.

With his help, many things are on the right track.

It's winter now, and many people are actually sitting at home with nothing to do.

So when the news that the Lin family was going to build a house spread, many people came to help, and they were provided with two meals a day.

Xuanhe also went to the town to buy a lot of food these days, which was specially bought for the people who helped.

Every day people come and go to transport stones to our house. Those stones are from nearby mountains.

When Xuanhe saw these stones, he imagined in his mind that the house was finally not made of mud.

Just like their current house, the walls have cracked and sitting inside always feels like it is a dilapidated building.

In half a month, their house was built.

During this period, thanks to the help of the Lin family and neighbors, they worked very quickly.

However, a lot of the twenty taels of silver he got from the division of the family property had been spent, and there was basically nothing left.

Although they are not paid, they should at least be given better food.

Moreover, the furniture in the house was made by Grandpa Shen. The new house has four rooms, a living room and a kitchen.

The tables, chairs, benches and cabinets inside were all made by Grandpa Shen, and many of them were already made by Grandpa Shen.

They just need to move in, but this time Shen has to pay for it.

Grandpa Shen and his friends were determined not to accept it at first, but when they heard Shen say that if they didn't want to win the money, they could go find someone else to buy it, Grandpa Shen accepted the money.

After the first branch of the Lin family had completed its house, the third branch of the Lin family also planned to build a house.

They chose to build their site next to Xuanhe's house. Xianhe had heard his two little cousins ​​speak ill of Lin Ruru more than once.

Lin Ru Ru has been acting like a madman at home recently, and she has been beaten many times by the Niu Shi.

She actually wanted Liu to give him the ten taels of silver from the family division, saying that she wanted to do business.

When she heard this, Liu slapped her on the back.

Let alone ten taels of silver, Liu wouldn't even give him ten cents.

However, something even more outrageous happened. When Liu got up this morning, she did not see Lin Ruru.

Because the family business was now divided and she had to do a lot of things by herself, she gave the cooking job to Lin Ruru. When she saw the cold stove in the kitchen, she thought Lin Ruru was sleeping in.

Unexpectedly, when I went to her room, I found that Lin Ruru was nowhere to be found in the room.

Liu didn't care at the time because Lin Ruru's cooking tasted very average.

When she went into the house to change clothes and cook, she found that the house had been moved.

Liu was subconsciously startled at this moment and hurried to the cabinet to look for the hidden silver and money.

Who would have thought that when I went over there, I would see the cabinet in a mess.

He took out everything inside and took the box that contained her silver. Sure enough, there was nothing inside.

There was not a penny left in it, and it was at this moment that my heart was pounding.

"Boss, go and stop them! That bastard has taken all the money in the house!"

After hearing what Liu said, Uncle Lin, who had just come back from a morning of work, subconsciously put on the shoes he had just taken off.

Because everyone knew that Lin Ruru wanted money, he also understood what his wife was talking about at this time.

There was a cry in Liu's voice. If this money was really spent by Lin Ruru, their family would really not be able to survive.

She went back with Uncle Lin, and on the way there, they both kept running.

But when they heard that Lin Ruru was going to town in the village's ox cart today, they both felt unwell.

The oxcart had left half an hour ago, and now they couldn't catch up even if they went faster.

But neither of them gave up and put all their life's energy into this day.

When they arrived in the town, it was almost noon. They saw Uncle An driving the ox cart and immediately went up to him and asked, "Uncle An, did my daughter come to the street today in the ox cart?"

Uncle An was holding a cigarette in his hand. Seeing them at this moment, he was a little surprised. "Didn't you ask your child to go to the street?"

"Uncle An, do you know where she went?"

Uncle Lin's face was covered in sweat at this time, and he asked Uncle An anxiously.

"Oh, it seems he went to the restaurant."

Uncle An saw how anxious they were and could only explain to them.

After hearing what was said, Mrs. Liu and Uncle Lin ran towards the restaurant. When they arrived at the restaurant, it was time for dinner.

Since they didn't see anyone outside, they were both a little timid.

Because the people who come into the restaurant are all well-dressed, and their temperament is different from others.

But when the two of them thought about the money, they went to the lobby under many people's strange looks.

"Please come in. Are you here to have dinner?" The waiter in the lobby saw them and came towards them immediately.

Judging from the way these two people are dressed, they are obviously people who cannot afford to eat. Now that there are many people around, I am afraid that they will cause trouble.

"Excuse me, we are here to look for a girl, alone, about fourteen or fifteen years old."

Speaking of this, Xiao Er was still quite impressed.

"Yes, but who are they?"

"We are her parents. Please take us to find her!"

Liu was anxious to go over and pull the waiter, but the waiter dodged her hand just as she stretched out her hand.

"Are you really her parents? You are not here to cause trouble, are you? She is our guest now and is having her meal!"

The waiter looked at them suspiciously, and Liu was no longer able to do anything at this time. She could only quickly search in the lobby.

Just now, Liu heard the waiter say that she had already ordered the dishes. At this time, all she wanted was to find the person quickly and see if she could get the money back.

Mrs. Liu didn't find anyone on the first floor, so she ran around the lobby alone, while Uncle Lin had already gone up to the second floor.

"Hey, what are you doing?"

The waiter looked at the people in two directions and his head started to hurt. What was going on with these two people?

It was a busy time and the shopkeeper was not there, so he could only go to the lobby to find that person and try to get them out.

Liu saw that Lin Ruru was not in the lobby and had no choice but to go to the second floor.

The waiter was so slow that he couldn't catch up with them. He could only see them looking for someone in the middle of the table.

In a corner, Liu finally saw Lin Ruru eating.

"You dead man, do you want to kill our family?"

Liu's tone was very excited. Seeing them like this, many people who were eating were disturbed.

"what happened?"

"What happened?"

Many people who were eating nearby were disturbed, and the waiter hated them so much.

"Little Brother, how much did her meal cost?"

The dishes on the table were confirmed by the waiter, so when he heard Liu's words, he immediately said, "It cost two taels of silver in total."

Because today when Lin Ruru came to order food, she ordered meat dishes and filled the whole table. The waiter said that she couldn't finish it and she was complained about it.

"so much!"

Liu couldn't help but yell. She grabbed Lin Ruru, who was still standing there in a daze, and took her outside.

"Mom, let go, I haven't finished my meal yet!"

Lin Ruru was still thinking about eating at this time. She had already ordered. Was it going to be a waste to wait for a table of dishes?

But she was pulled by the ear by Liu and was forced to go downstairs.

The waiter was quite happy to see them leave, because he had already paid for the food. Now that they had left, he felt relaxed and happy at the same time, as he could take the food on the table away later.

"Brother, I see the food on the table is not here yet."

When Uncle Lin saw that the second brother watched Lin Ruru being taken away without stopping her, he knew that the meal had already been paid for.

"We don't offer refunds for meals."

The waiter frowned and looked at the honest Uncle Lin in front of him.

"Then pack it for us."

Hearing his words, the waiter nodded. If he didn't agree today, who knows what would happen in the future.

"But you have to pay for the packing fee yourself."

Compared with the two taels of silver, the packing fee was nothing at this time, and Uncle Lin readily agreed.

When Uncle Lin went out, he saw Liu standing at the door and asked her, "Did you get the rest of the money back?"

Liu looked around and found that many people were looking in their direction. "Let's talk while we walk."

"I only have five taels of silver left from the money I just brought back. The rest was spent by that dead woman, and she didn't even tell me what she spent it on. I just slapped her a few times and she ran away."

Liu's face was now full of regret. Everyone in the second branch of the Lin family knew where the money was kept at home.

But she never thought that the child she raised would take away all the money in the family and spend two taels of silver just on meals when coming to the town.

"Let's go back first and pretend that we don't have this daughter."

Uncle Lin's words shocked Mrs. Liu who was standing next to him and she almost dropped the box on the ground. "Is this too serious?"

"I should have kicked her out last time when she pushed someone into the river. Didn't she know that I had to use a lot of our divided property to compensate my eldest brother's family?"

Uncle Lin felt guilty towards my eldest brother's family, so he gave them a lot of food when they built the house some time ago. He had discussed this with Liu.
