The wife of two taels of silver

Chapter 41 Giving Gifts

When they arrived at the door, Zhang Ben was already waiting for them.

"Madam, what is this?" When Zhang Ben first saw Sanyou, he thought he was a hired coachman, but it turned out that there was a strange woman in the car, holding Lin Haitang's hand.

Lin Haitang introduced Zhang Ben: "This is Sanyou, and this is Liu Wanwan. This couple will be part of our family from now on."

When Lin Haitang spoke to Liu Wanwan, she was very gentle, almost like coaxing a child: "Wanwan, this is Brother Zhang Ben, the husband of Sister Xiangjun."

Liu Wanwan coughed twice, bowed to Zhang Ben, and said, "Brother Zhang Ben."

Zhang Ben waved his hand awkwardly and said, "Just call me Brother Zhang."

Sanyou was a very outgoing person. He went up to Zhang Ben, put his arm around his shoulders, and said, "Brother Ben, let's protect them from now on."

"Okay, big brother." Facing Sanyou, Zhang Ben felt much more at ease.

Everyone walked inside.

Lin Haitang thought of a question and asked, "Sanyou, you have returned to the secular world, so what is your last name?"

"My last name is Liu," Sanyou said proudly, puffing out his chest, "It's the same last name as my wife."

Zhang Ben and Zhao Xiangjun were both a little surprised. If a man takes his wife's surname, he will be married into the wife's family. How could he be so proud of it?

"Then you really benefited from Wanwan's help." As a modern man, Lin Haitang naturally didn't feel that there was any difference between having the same surname as his wife.

Zhao Xiangjun and Zhang Ben were helping to clean up the house and prepare it for Sanyou and Wanwan to live in. Lin Haitang pulled Sanyou aside and said, "Don't worry. I'll give you the pill tonight. Then you can go back to your room and give it to Wanwan."

San nodded, his tone filled with fear: "Luckily you showed up in time, if you were a little later, Wanwan would be gone."

Lin Haitang raised an eyebrow and said, "Aren't you a fortune teller? Why didn't you predict that I would appear at this time to save Wanwan?"

Sanyou shook his head and said, "I only know that you will show up, but I don't know the exact time. I can only wait here with Wanwan."

Lin Haitang choked up. Just imagine, your lover will die soon, and every day is a countdown. You know there is someone who can save him, but you can't find that person.

It gives you hope, but at the same time it makes you lose hope.

Lin Haitang patted Sanyou on the shoulder and consoled him, "Hasn't this what we've been waiting for? Come on, come with me to deliver the things."

"Go and call Brother Zhang over. I'm in need of a coachman. You go and clean the room." Lin Haitang still needed a coachman. There were too many things. It would definitely not be possible to carry them manually. She might as well just drive the carriage over.

Go to Li Erzhu's house first and call Li Erzhu and Lin Qiaoxia.

"Sister, it's me, Lin Haitang." Lin Haitang knocked on the door of Li Erzhu's house.

Li Erzhu hurried out of the house, opened the door, and said, "It's Haitang, Brother Zhang is here too, come in quickly."

"Haitang..." A rough voice came, and Lin Haitang almost didn't hear clearly what was said.

Lin Haitang had just walked to the door of the main hall when Lin Qiaoxia also walked here. When the two met, before Lin Haitang could start speaking, Lin Qiaoxia knelt down in front of her.

"Haitang, thank you, sister..." Lin Qiaoxia wanted to kneel down.

Of course Lin Haitang couldn't let her kneel, so she said, "Sister, get up quickly!"

Lin Qiaoxia insisted on kneeling. Her voice was so hoarse that she couldn't even speak clearly, and now she was crying, it was even harder to hear: "Without you, what will happen to my little girl..."

Lin Haitang could guess what Lin Qiaoxia was saying, and knew that no matter what she said, Lin Qiaoxia would have to kneel down, so she simply knelt down as well: "Sister, if you don't get up, I will kneel with you."

As she spoke, her knees had already dropped to the ground. Lin Qiaoxia quickly shook her head, quickly stood up and pulled Lin Haitang up.

"That's right, sister, brother Zhuzi, I'm here to tell you something today." Lin Haitang said to the two of them.

Lin Qiaoxia pulled Lin Haitang to sit on a stool and poured her a cup of tea.

"You said, as long as it is something I can do, I will go through fire and water to do it." Li Erzhu said that he was now full of gratitude and wanted to work like a slave for Lin Haitang's family.

Lin Haitang smiled and said, "Brother Zhuzi, it's not that serious. It's just that many villagers helped to find the child last night. I thought I should buy some things and send them door to door as a thank you."

Li Erzhu thought for a moment and said, "Of course it's possible, but there's no need to go to such lengths. We're all from the same village, and we'll all help each other out when we need help. Besides, when Uncle Gu was alive, he did a lot to help the village. Even Gu An has helped everyone a lot, so we shouldn't feel bad about it."

Lin Haitang shook her head and said, "Brother Zhuzi, you also said that it was the good reputation earned by my father-in-law and Momo's father. You also know my personality. My reputation is not that good. My bad reputation has spread farther than their good reputation."

Lin Haitang said bit by bit: "Their good reputation is not meant to be wasted like this. Gu Mo will also take the path of scientific examinations in the future. As a mother, I can't help him, but I can't hold him back either."

"That's true," Li Erzhu nodded and said, "Then I'll go buy some things tomorrow and deliver it to you when I get back."

Lin Haitang smiled and said, "Brother Zhuzi, I've bought everything. Let's go deliver it now. I don't know who came last night, and I can't tell where anyone's house is. I have to rely on you to lead the way."

"How much is it? I'll get it for you." Li Erzhu stood up and went to the inner room to get the money.

Lin Haitang stopped him and said, "Brother Zhuzi, this is to pave the way for Mo Mo's future. Why would I ask you to take the money? Speaking of which, it was you and your wife who helped me today."

"Brother Zhang, go get the things down." Lin Haitang said to Zhang Ben.

Lin Qiaoxia was a little anxious and said, "Haitang, how can you pay for it yourself? You don't need to say anything else, just tell me how much it is. I'll get it for you."

At this time, Zhang Ben also brought the things over.

There were two pounds of glutinous rice, two pounds of pork, two pounds of spare ribs, two bags of brown sugar, and two boxes of pastries; the glutinous rice was packed in a big red box, the pork and spare ribs were placed in a bamboo basket covered with a red cloth, and the brown sugar and pastries were wrapped in a layer of red cloth, which looked very festive.

Lin Haitang was a bit superstitious. When her three children met with a disaster, she thought of buying some things for them and wrapping them in red cloth to calm them down.

"Sister, Brother Zhuzi, please don't refuse. This is not for you. It's for our girl. Such a big thing happened to the child. We need to calm her down." Lin Haitang piled the things in front of Li Erzhu and Lin Qiaoxia.

Li Erzhu looked embarrassed, not knowing where to put his hands and feet. He said, "Well, well, how can I thank you, Haitang?"

Lin Haitang said, "Brother Zhuzi, please come and help me with the few acres of land at my family's farm when the harvest comes. Brother Zhang can't handle it all by himself, so I have to rely on you."

"Hey! That's nothing. Leave it to me!" Li Erzhu felt a little relieved after hearing Lin Haitang say that.

"Then let's not reminisce here, let's go and send Dingxi off first. I originally wanted to ask my sister to go with us, but her throat is too bad." Lin Haitang looked at Lin Qiaoxia worriedly.

This voice is even uglier than the quacking of a duck.

Lin Qiaoxia tilted her head back, gulped down two large bowls of water, and said, "I'll go with you too."

It's really not appropriate to let Lin Haitang go with two grown men.

"Okay, send the girl to my house first." Lin Haitang said.

After this incident, I dare not leave my child alone at home.

Several people started to set off. Li Erzhu and Zhang Ben drove the car outside and did not get into the carriage.

On the way, Lin Qiaoxia's eyes widened when she heard that each household would be given two kilograms of pork and six eggs.

My goodness, her sister is a spendthrift.

After sending the girl home, they began their journey of giving gifts.

The first family they sent him to was Lin Haitang's neighbor, named Gu Baoqing. They were from the same clan as Gu An, and Gu An called him brother.

Li Erzhu knocked on the door: "Baoqing, Baoqing, the gift-bearing people are here."

Gu Baoqing came out with a puzzled look on his face. He opened the door and saw Li Erzhu. He said, "It's you, kid. What gift are you giving me?"

Of course, Gu Baoqing was joking. They grew up together and he just thought Li Erzhu was making fun of him. Just as he was about to invite him into the house to ask about the child, he saw Lin Haitang, Lin Qiaoxia and Zhang Ben.

Lin Qiaoxia was holding a red cloth bag in her hand, and through the seam you could see that there were eggs inside.

Zhang Ben was holding a piece of pork with a red rope tied on it. The meat looked to weigh two pounds!

"This..." Gu Baoqing stuttered. How come there really is a gift being sent to him?

Li Erzhu said, "Why are you standing here? You didn't even invite us into the yard?"

Gu Baoqing quickly invited them in and said, "Come in, come in, but what are you doing?"

"Brother Baoqing, thank you for helping to find the child so late last night. Take these things quickly." Lin Haitang said, taking the meat from Zhang Ben's hand and stuffing it into Gu Baoqing's hand. "Now that the child has been found, we have the heart to come here to thank you. Brother Baoqing, please don't think we are late."

Lin Qiaoxia was speechless, and Li Erzhu said, "Yes, Baoqing, thank you so much for yesterday. Without your help in finding the child, we really don't know what to do. Take these things quickly."

Gu Baoqing's eyes widened, and despite his size, he jumped back instantly: "Hurry up and take these things back! These belong to our neighbors. Gu An and I are from the same clan, and my uncle and aunt have helped me a lot. If I take these things, I will be too embarrassed to stay in the village!"

Lin Haitang took the eggs from Lin Qiaoxia and said, "Brother Baoqing, you also said that we are neighbors. Your help is a favor, and we can't take it for granted. Brother Baoqing, please take it quickly. Brother Zhuzi and I have prepared the same gift for every family. You are the first one to receive it. Take it quickly. My arms are not strong enough, so I can't hold it up for too long."

Gu Baoqing still refused to take it, so Lin Haitang said, "Brother Baoqing, just take it. Otherwise, if anything happens in the future, we won't be able to ask you for help."

Li Erzhu said, "Baoqing, hurry up and hold it. Haitang is pregnant, are you going to ask her to hold it all the time?"

Gu Baoqing then took the things and said, "No more words, Gu An's family, if you have any problems in the future, just tell me, I will definitely help you!"

After a few more pleasantries, the group left.

Gu Baoqing was quite excited as he watched the carriage go away. In the past, when he helped the villagers, it was good enough to provide them with a meal. No one had ever given them meat and eggs.

The Gu An family is obviously very reasonable, and they are very kind to their children. Who on earth spread such vicious rumors? Gu Baoqing looked at the meat again and again, feeling very happy.

When the items were delivered to other families, the situation was almost the same. They all refused to accept the gifts. It was only after Lin Haitang and others persuaded them again and again that they accepted them.

Forty-two households helped, so Lin Haitang and his team delivered gifts to forty-two households. By the time they finished delivering, the moon was already high in the sky.

Lin Qiaoxia supported Lin Haitang all the way. When they were walking back, Lin Qiaoxia asked, "Does your leg hurt?"

"What?" Lin Haitang really couldn't hear clearly.

"Legs! Are you tired?" Lin Qiaoxia blurted out word by word.

Lin Haitang shook her head and said, "It's okay, sister. Now that the girl has been found, don't cry anymore. Drink more water. Take care of your throat."

"I know." Lin Qiaoxia nodded.

To be honest, when Gu Mo and Gu Zhilan were missing, Lin Haitang was worried, but she was not like Lin Qiaoxia, who felt like the sky was falling and completely collapsed.

The girl really is her whole world.

Finally home, can stop and rest for a while.

They hadn't eaten yet, so Lin Haitang didn't let Li Erzhu and Lin Qiaoxia go back and asked them to eat at home.

"Sister, you two don't have to go back. Just eat here. You'll have to cook for yourself when you go back." Lin Haitang pulled Lin Qiaoxia into the kitchen.

Zhao Xiangjun also said, "That's right, don't leave. I'm cooking your meal. It would be a waste if you don't eat it. It's so hot today, and it won't be ready until tomorrow morning."

Lin Qiaoxia and Li Erzhu did not refuse and went back after finishing their meal.

Before dinner, Lin Haitang secretly went to the space, added some spiritual spring water to the teacup, and asked Lin Qiaoxia to drink it.

The three children liked Liu Wanwan very much and kept playing with her.

Liu Wanwan was weak and couldn't do any big movements. She just sat beside them and watched them play games. Although she coughed from time to time, there was a smile between her eyebrows.

When everything quieted down, Lin Haitang went to the space.

There were already quite a few pills stored up. Lin Haitang took one out and handed it to Liu Sanyou who had been waiting for a long time.

"Here you go, just let Wanwan eat it." Lin Haitang put the small bottle in Sanyou's hand.

Holding the medicine bottle tightly in his palm, Liu Sanyou clasped his fists towards Lin Haitang and bowed, "Thank you, Miss Lin."

"Three things," Lin Haitang asked, "Why can't I get rid of this baby in my belly?"

Liu Sanyou looked directly at Lin Haitang and said, "Lin Haitang, as the carrier of the divine weapon, do you think your body can't protect a fetus?"

Artifact? Are you talking about space?

Lin Haitang asked doubtfully, "Divine weapon? Do you know the origin of this thing?"

Liu Sanyou shook his head: "I don't have that ability yet. This thing has everything you need and can even save lives. If it's not a divine weapon, what else can it be?"

Well, what Liu Sanyou said is right.

The effect of the pill was obvious. When I saw Liu Wanwan the next day, she was no longer as pale as when I first met her. She had become rosy and shiny, and she no longer coughed when she spoke.

It’s really a magical tool.
