The wife of two taels of silver

Chapter 26 Return to the Village

That night, Lin Haitang, her mother and her two children slept soundly, but Wan Yi had a very bad night.

The matter was brought to the attention of the old lady, who acted decisively and confined Wan Yi to her home. After the wound on her hand healed, she was forced to kneel in the ancestral hall for a night as punishment.

The old lady was very old and did not move to the capital with her son's family. Instead, she stayed in her hometown with her second grandson. Although she usually did not ask about the affairs of the mansion, she was not confused at all.

Even Liu Shuyun and Liu Shulian were punished.

The old lady leaned on her cane and tapped the floor: "We discovered this early. If we had waited a few years, by the time He'er had grown up and had developed his temper, it would have been too late!"

I have to say that the old lady has a very sharp eye.

Lin Haitang had no idea what was going on in the Liu family tonight. She and her two children were sleeping soundly in their dreams.

After opening his eyes in the morning, Lin Haitang went to the space first.

Lin Haitang never knew that being pregnant could make her so greedy. She missed oranges so much that she had to go into the space to pick them.

The sourer it was, the more she liked it. She couldn't stop eating it, and soon the orange peel had formed a small peak.

Lin Haitang planned to write a few more chapters of Dream of the Red Chamber for Liu Shuyun before leaving, so that he wouldn't have to come to her house to urge her to finish her work soon after she got home.

It was almost time. If it was any later, Gu Mo and Gu Zhilan would wake up. Lin Haitang thought about it and left the space.

Now the two little guys are extremely dependent on Lin Haitang. When they see Lin Haitang, they rub their eyes and stick to her.

"Mom, you woke up so early." Gu Mo put on his clothes sensibly.

Lin Haitang buttoned his shirt and said, "Mom just woke up too. Hurry up and get dressed. I need to go wash my face." Lin Haitang said in a hoarse voice.

She has always been like this to her nephew and has long been used to it. She speaks in a low voice when she sees her nephew, and she does the same when it comes to Gu Mo and Gu Zhilan.

"Dong dong".

Caiyun's voice rang out: "Miss Lin, are you awake? I will help you wash up."

"Come in." Lin Haitang raised her voice.

When Caiyun came in, she was followed by two little maids, holding either a washbasin or a towel in their hands.

Seeing this scene, Lin Haitang felt quite fresh. This was the first time she had received such treatment since arriving here.

No need to boil water or take care of the kids. It's so nice to be rich.

"Miss Lin, the water is ready, you can wash now."

Lin Haitang tested the water temperature with her hand and it was just right.

"Miss Lin, breakfast is ready." Caiyun lowered her eyes and only spoke when Lin Haitang wiped her face. She made no sound at other times.

Lin Haitang nodded and turned to look for the two children.

Caiyun was waiting by the side while they were eating. Lin Haitang quite liked the eight-treasure porridge and ate two small bowls.

Everything went smoothly, and the carriage prepared by Liu Shuyun was waiting outside the door early.

When they arrived at the door, Liu Shuyun led Liu Qinghe over and apologized to Gu Mo and Gu Zhilan.

Next to the carriage, Liu Qinghe held Liu Shuyun's hand, his eyes were red and his eyelids were swollen from crying.

"He'er." Liu Shulian said.

Liu Qinghe shuddered, walked up to Gu Mo and Gu Zhilan, bowed properly, and sobbed, "I'm sorry, please forgive me."

Gu Mo and Gu Zhilan snuggled up to Lin Haitang, saying nothing and looking up at her.

"No need to look at me. Do you want to forgive him? If you want to forgive, then forgive him. If you don't want to forgive, then refuse." Lin Haitang rubbed his two little heads.

Liu Qinghe came over to apologize. It was a matter between the three children. She had done everything else she should have done and she would not interfere in any other way.

Gu Mo saw that Gu Zhilan was still a little scared, so he walked forward, helped Liu Qinghe, and said, "My sister and I forgive you, but we don't want to play with you anymore."

We forgive you because you cried so pitifully, but what you did was really too much. We don’t want to play with you anymore.

Ugh.

Liu Shuyun sighed softly, lamenting that although Gu Mo was young and had not received any education, he was much stronger than Liu Qinghe.

He took out a pair of jade pendants and handed them to Gu Mo and Gu Zhilan respectively, saying, "Sister-in-law, this is our apology. You must accept it."

Lin Haitang didn't know much about jade, but he could tell that this jade was crystal clear and a rare piece of good jade.

Good jade should not be wasted.

After saying goodbye at the Liu Mansion, Lin Haitang, her mother and her two children got on a carriage and left Yancheng with the creaking of wheels.

Before leaving, Lin Haitang went to Xiannong Bookstore and met the shopkeeper Cai.

She gave the prepared manuscripts of the first thirty-three chapters to Shopkeeper Cai, saying that she was pregnant and it would be inconvenient for her to do so. She would go to Hua'an County to ask her for the manuscripts at the end of next month.

Shopkeeper Cai was still in charge of these matters, so he agreed.

On the way back this time, there was a special person and car to escort her, which really saved Lin Haitang a lot of effort.

The carriage was big enough, and probably because Lin Haitang was pregnant, there was a small couch in the carriage.

Lin Haitang lay on it. No matter how stable the carriage was, it was still swaying, which was quite comfortable. After a while, Lin Haitang fell asleep.

Gu Mo and Gu Zhilan sat obediently playing with the small toys in their hands.

That was the little wooden figure that Gu An carved for the two children before he left.

The carving was simple and rough, but the two children couldn't put it down and took it with them wherever they went.

Gu Zhilan looked at the little figure in her hand, then at the sleeping Lin Haitang, her head leaning against her brother's, and whispered, "Brother, I miss Daddy."

"I think so."

"Brother, is there really a little brother in my belly?"

Gu Mo thought for a moment and said, "I don't know, why can't it be my sister?"

Gu Zhilan was silent for a while and said, "Lanlan doesn't know either, but I feel like it's my younger brother."

……

When we arrived in Hua'an County, it was already dark.

Lin Haitang asked the driver to take them to the inn.

It was getting late, so they decided not to continue walking. Besides, the carriage was too conspicuous, and Lin Haitang didn't want the villagers to know about it. So they decided to go back by ox cart tomorrow.

After sitting in the carriage for a whole day, Lin Haitang felt like her whole frame was about to fall apart.

After wrapping the two children in clothes, Lin Haitang held one in each hand and said, "Run, run, run, it's so cold──"

"Sir, are you staying in the hotel or just stopping for a meal?" The waiter bent over, holding a sweat towel on his head, a white towel on his shoulders, and had a flattering smile on his face.

Lin Haitang took out some money and said, "Let's stay in the hotel. I'll give you a good room and some food."

"Okay~" the waiter responded loudly.

Lin Haitang took the doorplate and led the two children upstairs.

The food was served quickly and both children were very hungry so they ate voraciously.

Lin Haitang didn't have much of an appetite. Because of the baby in her belly, her appetite was sometimes good and sometimes bad, just like the weather in April, cloudy and sunny.

The two children enjoyed the meal, so Lin Haitang simply brought the children and their food into the space and let the two children run around and play.

After a while, the quiet space was filled with the laughter of children.

Gu Mo and Gu Zhilan's happiness did not spread to Lin Haitang. She frowned and looked around the space.

Something's wrong. This space... seems to have gotten bigger...

Lin Haitang walked around the entire space and measured it with her feet. She was not wrong, it really had become bigger.

It has become bigger, and there are some things in the space that were not there before.

I still remember the last time Lin Haitang wanted to eat tomatoes and cried, but there were no tomatoes in the space. Now they appear.

Small red tomatoes were hanging on the rack. Lin Haitang picked one and put it in her mouth.

The more he ate, the more strange Lin Haitang's expression became.

What was this? A reward for her keeping the child?

Lin Haitang couldn't even get angry.

She didn't want to die, but she couldn't go back, and she was unwilling to stay here. Now that space had come to her, it felt like a piece of delicious chocolate cake was stuck in her throat.

I couldn't vomit it out, and it took a long time to go down, which made me feel uncomfortable.

You have to swallow it even if it hurts.

She wants to live.
