After saying this, Xiangliu vomited immediately and her face turned pale.

"Liu'er, what's wrong with you? Are you okay?"

Zhang also ran over to support her. It looked like she was really pregnant.

"Every pregnant woman goes through this. Every woman goes through this. There's nothing to be squeamish about."

Zhang rolled her eyes and said, "But whose child is Xiangliu pregnant with? If the baby doesn't look like Ergou, she will strangle it to death."

"Li Lang, I feel so uncomfortable and uneasy. You said that if I ran away from Fenghe Tower, the boss of the building would definitely send someone to look for me.

What should I do if she finds me?

Also, your wife, Lin, doesn't know about this yet. Will she accept me and the child?"

These two problems made Li Ergou and Zhang feel troubled. Fenghe Tower was very tricky, and they had the final say on Lin Lin's words.

"What are you afraid of? Shangdong Village is not an easy place to find. If the people from Fenghe Tower come to arrest you, I will take you to hide in the mountains."

Zhang had a simple idea, thinking that she could hide in the deep mountains for the rest of her life.

Xiang Liu lowered her eyebrows and grabbed the corner of Li Ergou's clothes with her small hands.

"Li Lang, giving birth to a child will cause me great harm. I must explain this to you before I give birth to this child.

I want you to help me redeem myself from Fenghe Tower. Also, I don’t want to be your mistress, I want to be your wife.

If you don't agree to these requests, I won't have this child."

The Li family's biggest weakness is their child. If they don't have this child, it is very likely that they will never have another one in this life. This has always been the case with the Li family.

"Liu'er, let's talk nicely. Don't be impulsive."

Xiang Liu shook off Li Ergou's hand on her and turned her back to Li Ergou, looking like she had made his beloved wife very angry.

"Okay, okay, tell me how much silver it will take to redeem you, and I'll find a way."

"Eighty taels, not a penny less. That's what Lou Ma said herself."

"Eighty taels?"

Zhang yelled at the top of her lungs, "You're a lowly person, and you're asking for eighty taels? Why don't you just rob me?"

Xiangliu saw that it was almost time, so she stood up and said softly.

"Li Lang, I came here today with the help of my sisters. I can't harm them. I have to go back to Fenghe Tower first.

But I only have two requests: redeem yourself and become my legal wife.

Lou Ma doesn't know I'm pregnant yet. If you don't hurry up, you might lose the baby."

Xiangliu left, leaving behind the disheveled Li Ergou and his mother.

Li Ergou scratched his head with both hands and pulled out a lot of hair.

"Divorcing Lin Lin is easy, but eighty taels of silver? Son, where are we going to get that much silver? Or let it go. Anyway, she might not be pregnant with our child."

Zhang wanted to give up. After all, she just looked down on women like Xiangliu, who were delicate and weak and didn't look like they could work.

"Mom, I promise that Liu'er is pregnant with my son. Have you forgotten the curse that our family can only have one child per generation?

Lin Lin has been unable to get pregnant for five years. It is obvious that my son, Li Ergou, also looks down on such a mother.

I must find the eighty taels. By the way, we also have trees on another hill. We sold them all.

I also have two acres of dry land, so I'll sell it all. Then give me a few taels of silver to try my luck at the casino. Maybe I can find the money to redeem Liu'er."

The whimsical Li Ergou could no longer sit still. He had to deal with these things quickly and his son had to be born safely.

……

Lin Ting received a letter from Xiangliu at noon, and the tasks she assigned him had been half completed.

As long as he waits a little longer, everything will be as Lin Ting wishes.

Lin Ting tore up the letter and threw it into the stove where the medicine was being boiled.

After preparing lunch and the medicinal soup, Lin Ting borrowed Wan Weiran's carriage and returned to Wushan Village.

This time when she came back, she bought a lot of things, including a chicken, eggs, rice and oil.

When he got home, he saw Shen Wanyi playing in the mud at the door. He hadn't seen her for a few days and Lin Ting really missed her.

"Xiaobao, what interesting things are you doing?"

When Shen Wanyi looked up, she saw her mother whom she had been thinking about day and night. She immediately dropped the wooden stick in her hand and ran towards Lin Ting with a smile.

"Mom, Xiaobao misses you and Daddy so much, wuwuwu..."

As I was laughing, I burst into tears.

Lin Ting squatted down and hugged her, gently stroking her back: "Mom misses Xiaobao too, very much..."

Hearing Shen Wanyi's crying, Yang Xiuxiu thought something had happened and hurried over to see what was going on.

I was relieved when I saw that it was Lin Ting who came back.

"Lin Ting, you're back. Where's Qingzhou?"

Yang Xiuxiu looked around but couldn't see Shen Qingzhou. She had been worried about Shen Qingzhou's health these days.

"Mother-in-law, Qingzhou is still in Wanhetang. His legs need daily dressing changes and medication. It's more convenient for him to stay in Wanhetang."

A trace of worry flashed in Yang Xiuxiu's eyes: "Oh, let's go home first. Why did you buy so much food again? We haven't even finished eating the last time we bought it."

Lin Ting held Shen Wanyi's hand and held a can of cooking oil in his other hand.

After putting all the things away, the nervous Yang Xiuxiu couldn't help but ask Lin Ting.

"Lin Ting, what did Doctor Wan say about Qingzhou's injury?"

"The treatment went smoothly. As long as he continues to exercise slowly, he will be able to pass away. Don't worry, mother-in-law."

Hearing Lin Ting say this, the stone in Yang Xiuxiu's heart finally fell. The knot that had been in her heart for several years seemed to be untied at once, and tears followed.

"He can still walk, that's great, that's great..."

Yang Xiuxiu turned around, grabbed the corner of her clothes to wipe her tears, and kept murmuring the three words "That's great".

"Mother-in-law, have you and father-in-law sorted out the matter of building a house in our vegetable garden?"

What Yang Xiuxiu and Shen Dali were most worried about every day was Shen Qingzhou's injury. They had collected all the vegetables, but as for the foundation, the two wanted to wait until they came back to discuss how to deal with it.

"I've fixed it a little, but I haven't started repairing it yet."

They can only live in the Shen family's old house for three months. Now a month has almost passed, and Shen Dali and the others are not enthusiastic at all.

Lin Ting felt that he still had to rely on her.

"I'll take care of the foundation. Shen Qingzhou and I have almost finalized the building plan."

Shen Dali is like this. He is always calm and composed in everything he does, which makes people anxious just watching him.

"Okay, your father-in-law went to the river again today. If you need me for the house construction, just call me. Your father-in-law is a man who would be better suited to farming."

After telling Yang Xiuxiu to put the things away, Lin Ting took Shen Wanyi's hand and walked towards Tian Wang's house in the village.

Tian Wang's mother has been in poor health, so there should be someone at home.

"Grandma Tian, ​​hello Uncle Tian!"

The door of the Tian family was open. When Lin Ting and Shen Wanyi entered, they saw Aunt Tian and Tian Wang sitting outside the house to enjoy the cool air.

"Wanyi, Lin Ting? Who are you looking for here?"

Everyone in the village knows each other, but Lin Ting never visits other people's homes.

This person suddenly came to Tian Wang's house and he didn't react.

"Brother Tian, ​​Auntie, I have something to ask you."
