"Your Aunt Lin is not an outsider." Wang's sister-in-law sighed, "This child has been like this since he was young. He is too timid and has few playmates in the village."

"Cuicui is a good girl."

Lin thought Cuicui had a good personality and had things she liked to do, so she would not be bored even when she was alone.

"Let's not talk about her. What did you say just now?"

Lin smiled faintly and told her that her family was going to build a house.

"Winter is coming soon after the autumn harvest, and I want to move in before it gets cold. Time is a bit tight, so I'd like to trouble Brother Wang to call a few more people over."

Wang's wife asked about the location of the new house and slapped her thigh. "You have good taste. My husband told me a long time ago that the feng shui of that piece of land is one of the best in the village. It's right on the slope, and there are no houses around. It's quiet and open."

"Don't worry, I'll go back and tell him that my family isn't rushing to harvest, and he's at home doing nothing."

Mrs. Lin held her back and said, "Everyone is busy at this critical moment. Tell Brother Wang that those who are willing to come will be paid 20% more based on the market price. As for meals, I guarantee there will be meat every meal."

"Don't worry, leave it to me."

Mrs. Wang left happily as if she was building her own house.

Xiahe Village hasn't built any new houses in the past two years. After hearing what Lin said, the houses have to be built in a hurry, and the village will be lively for a while.

Silang came back from the threshing ground and just happened to hear the two talking, and was stunned for a moment.

Third Aunt built a new house and is moving away.

"What's wrong? Is there a problem in the threshing ground?" Lin turned her head and saw Silang with his head lowered, moving slowly. She didn't know what he was thinking, and she waved her hand in front of his eyes.

"Ah... no..." Shiro's smile was a little ugly.

"I'm glad you're okay. Come back for dinner soon."

Lin patted him and turned back to the yard.

Shi Lang couldn't help but say, "That Third Aunt..."

"What's wrong?" Lin turned around.

"Aunt San, are you...are you going to move out?" Silang couldn't help but ask.

"Yes, I just bought some land from your village chief grandfather."

Lin had no intention of hiding it from them, so she took out the written contract from her bosom and unfolded it for him to see.

Silang was illiterate, but he still read it carefully for a long time.

The more I watch, the more I want to cry.

Suddenly a teardrop hit the back of my hand and splashed everywhere.

Lin was flustered: "Why are you still crying?"

Si Lang was afraid that his tears would stain the contract, so he quickly folded it and handed it to Lin. He shook his head and said, "I'm happy for Third Aunt. Now that the new house is built, we don't have to squeeze into one room anymore."

After saying this, she cried even harder, tears streaming down her face.

Lin stared at him for a while and suddenly understood why the child reacted so strongly.

"Can't bear to see Auntie move away?"

"..."

Silang wanted to say yes, but didn't want to say it out loud. It was a good thing that Third Aunt built a new house, and he couldn't say it and make Third Aunt upset.

Seeing that he didn't say anything, Lin said to herself, "Since you're not reluctant, then forget it. I was originally planning to give you a piece of land..."

"What?" Silang raised his head and stared at his aunt in surprise. "What place?"

Lin raised her hand to wipe away the tears on Silang's little face: "What I mean is that Third Aunt will not abandon you. Okay, wash your hands and eat first, and we'll talk in detail after dinner."

Old man Cui led the Cui family back from the fields. The sound of the group of people, big and small, chatting could be heard from far away, adding a bit of liveliness to the village.
