Rebirth: I Raise a Husband in Another World
Chapter 65: Building a House and the Whole Village Knows
What could Lin Han say? He couldn't be so honest as to say that he didn't like officialdom, so he decided to tell a white lie.
Lin Han suddenly became depressed, even his back revealed loneliness, and he whispered softly: "I originally wanted to take the imperial examination, but things are unpredictable.
The boy's parents died in the flood, and all the property in the house was washed away by the flood. The boy was lucky to be able to survive.
I guess you don’t know that when I came to Xinghua Village, I was penniless and only managed to survive thanks to the people of Xinghua Village taking me in.
How can I afford to take the imperial examination? Besides, my parents have passed away, and I should observe three years of mourning for them, so I naturally cannot take the imperial examination."
After Lin Han finished speaking, Uncle Li didn't speak for a long time. He looked at the ground and sighed repeatedly. This floor is really hard.
Uncle Li is now very ashamed and regretful. He shouldn't have asked that question, "Why don't you take the imperial examination?"
Now, the scar that Uncle Li thought was Lin Han has been accurately revealed. He is afraid that Lin Han will be unable to get over it.
Uncle Li sighed a few more times, and finally made up his mind. He comforted Lin Han with a guilty look on his face: "Lin Han, the dead are gone. We must look forward to everything. Don't be too sad.
The imperial examination is not the only path in this world. Look, aren’t you living a good life now?
You are a good hunter. You have only been in Xinghua Village for three months and you are already building a new house. Wait until the house is completed.
Marry someone you like, have one or two children, and live happily as a family."
Uncle Li was afraid that Lin Han would be upset, so he collected all the words of blessing he knew in his life and told them to Lin Han.
After listening to what Grandpa Li said, Lin Han decided not to act too much, otherwise he would scare the old man.
Lin Han replied in a slightly more positive voice: "I understand. Thank you for your guidance, sir. I will always remember your kindness in my heart."
His voice was not as sad as before, and his tone showed a little more expectation for life. Feeling the change in Lin Han's tone, Uncle Li gradually felt relieved.
Thinking of what Lin Han had just said, Uncle Li felt quite embarrassed and said awkwardly: "Haha, it's my duty, it's my duty. This is what an elder like me should do."
Fortunately, the city gate was not far from Uncle Wang, and they arrived there without saying a few words. Uncle Li never thought that one day he would be so looking forward to seeing Uncle Wang.
The moment he saw Uncle Wang, Uncle Li felt like a bird locked in a cage about to be released, as if he was about to spread his wings and fly away in the next second.
At this time, Uncle Li stopped talking. He pretended to ignore Lin Han and walked to Uncle Wang and started chatting with him.
Uncle Li gave an awkward fake smile and started an awkward conversation: "Haha, Old Man Wang, how have you been lately?"
Uncle Wang didn't know what was wrong with Uncle Li to ask such a question. They didn't have a good relationship when they were young, but they got along well now that they were old.
Uncle Wang rolled his eyes unabashedly and said, "Isn't that how we live? What kind of question are you asking?"
Uncle Li asked casually in a hurry, but who knew Uncle Wang would be so disrespectful to him.
I had no choice but to continue this one-man show, pretending to be nonchalant and laughing: "Isn't this just to show my concern for our old friend? If you don't want to hear it, I won't say it anymore."
Uncle Wang always felt that there was something strange about Uncle Li, but he couldn't put his finger on it. He thought Uncle Li was up to something bad again and couldn't help but shudder.
In the end, I decided to remain unchanged and simply ignore Uncle Li.
Uncle Li saw that Uncle Wang didn't respond and didn't say anything. He then looked at Lin Han, whose face was calm and no emotion could be seen on it. He guessed that he should have let it go.
Uncle Li was not sure but he did not dare to ask what had stirred up Lin Han's sorrow again.
Little did he know that at this moment Lin Han was thinking in his heart: I’m sorry to the original owner, the original owner’s parents, for pulling you out as a shield.
From now on, I will burn lots of paper for you every Qingming Festival, so that you will have plenty of money to spend even in the underworld.
I will bring you many offerings during the Chinese New Year. This is the only thing I can do for you.
After a cup of tea, all the people returning to the village had arrived. Lin Han was still helping Uncle Wang load the car. After loading, they all got on the ox cart and set off back to Xinghua Village.
Lin Han sat on the ox cart admiring the scenery along the road, having no idea what he would face after returning to the village.
It turned out that after they paid for the bricks and tiles and left, Manager Wang sent someone to transport the bricks and tiles bought by Lin Han to Xinghua Village.
So many blue bricks and tiles naturally require a lot of ox carts to pull them. When the huge convoy arrives at Xinghua Village, everyone will be curious and want to take a look.
What's more, ancient farmers did the same thing every day: they worked in the fields during the day, went home to eat at mealtime, and went to bed at night.
Days like this are repetitive and boring, so anything new that happens will attract people's attention.
The people who transported the bricks and tiles didn't know where Lin Han's house was, so they asked the people in Xinghua Village.
After a few words, we finally understood what was going on. It turned out that Lin Han was going to build a new house.
This news caused a huge uproar in Xinghua Village and spread very quickly. You know, building a house in the countryside is a big deal.
For the villagers of Xinghua Village, building a new house requires almost the whole family's efforts. Not to mention exhausting their savings, it will cost a lot of money to build it.
Villager 1: "What!!! Lin Han wants to build a new house? Wasn't he penniless when he came to our village? How come he has enough money to build a new house now?"
The second villager said with a look of disgust: "Your news is too outdated. Not long ago, Lin Han just killed a wild boar and then a black bear.
Black bears, you know what black bears are, right? Their paws and gallbladders can be used as medicine. I guess he got the money to build his house from selling black bears."
The third villager sighed, "Oh my god, Lin Han is making money so fast! It's only been a short time, and he's already built a house."
Villager Four also lamented that people with the same background have different fates: "Who says it's not true? It's true that people with the same background have different fates!
There aren't many girls like Shuang'er in our village, and Lin Han is so outstanding that she makes all of us look like dirt."
Villager Three was also depressed after hearing this, but he was still confident in himself. He comforted Villager Four, saying, "Hey, why underestimate yourself?
Lin Han is excellent, but we are not bad either. Maybe those girls like Shuang'er prefer our style."
Villager 4 was not very confident in himself and said sadly: "Do you believe what you said?"
Villager Three chuckled and said nothing more.
Villager Five looked on with envy as the transporters unloaded the bricks and tiles and piled them up in the open space in front of Lin Han's yard.
I feel so much emotion: "I am 40 years old and still haven't built a big house. My family has to live in a small house."
