Transmigrated into a Farmhouse: The Stepmother Spoils Her Child to the Heavens
Chapter 11 The pot comes from the sky
When Lin Cai said she wanted to go back, Lin Bao, as the older brother, was the first to disagree.
"Go back? What do you mean, go back? I'm telling you, you're not allowed to go back. That place wasn't your home to begin with, so why would you go back?"
"Third brother, I'm already married, why am I still staying at my parents' house?"
"So what if you're married? Why can't you stay at your parents' home after you're married? If I say you can stay, you can stay, and your parents won't have any objections. Why do you care so much about the rest?"
Lin Cai was quite moved to hear this, but she really couldn't stay in the Lin family forever, not to mention that she was now a widow.
Even if she isn't married, someone who's married is still married, so how can she stay at her parents' home forever?
There has never been such a rule since ancient times, has there?
If she really stays, the whole Gu family village will probably gossip about the Lin family and her!
Even if neither he nor the Lin family cared, he still couldn't be so selfish.
My eldest, second, and third brothers are still single. Although they're quite successful, that doesn't mean they can't get married.
If it were the old Lin Cai, she definitely wouldn't care about this kind of thing, but now it's her, and she can't help but care.
She not only wants to live a good life herself, but also to ensure that the Lin family lives a good life and that her three older brothers can all get married.
Lin's parents didn't want their daughter to go back, but Lin Cai insisted, and in the end they had no choice but to let her take Xiao Chunhua back with her.
Along the way, Lin Bao carried Xiao Chunhua, and the two of them walked behind, whispering to each other from time to time, talking about some secret.
Lin Cai wasn't curious at all; all she wanted to do now was go back and see how the three brothers were doing.
They're still just kids, and boys at that, so there's bound to be some issues with tidying up, doing housework, and cooking. Right now, she's just praying that the house won't be a mess!
But just as they were getting close, Lin Cai heard a commotion.
"Big Hammer, why are you so stubborn? The Wang family has everything, all the good food and drinks they need, why won't you agree?"
"Agree with you my ass! If you're so satisfied and like it so much, why don't you let your son go over there?"
"Everyone says that marriages should be arranged by parents and matchmakers, and your son has both. Wouldn't it be faster to send your son to the Wang family?"
When Ershi speaks to outsiders, he really doesn't hold back when it comes to anything, and Lin Cai could hear what he was saying from a great distance.
Hearing Ershi's harsh words, the other party immediately became angry.
“I’m telling you, Gu Dachui, I’m doing this for your own good. Look at your stepmother, she hasn’t come back in so long and she even took your sister away. Do you think she’ll still want the three of you as a burden?”
"She's still young. She can remarry with just your sister. But if she takes all three of you with her, what man would want to marry her?"
Lin Cai, who had just reached the door, twitched at the corner of her mouth. A pot had fallen from the sky, and she couldn't even catch it.
She pushed through the crowd and went inside: "What's wrong? What's wrong? What happened?"
"Why is it so lively in front of the widow's house when it's not a holiday or festival?"
She glanced at the people watching the show outside, then looked at the person who had just dumped a pot on her.
"Hey sister-in-law, it's not a holiday or festival, what are you doing here? Did you bring us something nice?"
“That’s great! Look at these kids, they’re all skin and bones. Luckily, my sister-in-law brought some good stuff, I’ll make it for the kids right now.”
As he spoke, his eyes looked at Sister-in-law Gu, but he couldn't see her anywhere. Then he looked to the side.
Still seeing nothing, he turned to the three brothers and asked, "Did you bring the things inside?"
"Why don't you invite your aunt inside? We may not have tea, but we certainly have some water, right?"
Those present were somewhat bewildered by Lin Cai's actions; they had watched the drama unfold for a while, but what they saw was completely different from what they expected.
Among the people at the door, one couldn't help but speak up and remind them: "Tie Niu's family, your sister-in-law didn't come here with anything; she came to propose marriage."
"Huh? What does that mean? A matchmaker? Who are you matchmaking for? What kind of matchmaking?"
Lin Cai asked several questions, looking completely bewildered. The person at the door couldn't bear to watch any longer and simply explained what Lin Cai hadn't seen or heard.
After listening, Lin Cai suddenly realized and exclaimed "Oh!" Then she slapped her thigh and said, "Oh dear, isn't this a good thing?"
"There is food, drink, and clothing. You have everything you need. You can't find such a good thing even if you look up a lantern."
Hearing this, Da Chui felt a chill in his heart. She clearly knew who he liked, yet she still wanted him to marry into the Wang family. Was she only after that little bit of food?
After hearing Lin Cai's words, Gu's eldest sister-in-law assumed that the matter was settled and looked at Lin Cai with a smile.
“Sister-in-law, you are so sensible. I tried my best to persuade him, but Da Chui just wouldn’t agree. You know, if it weren’t for me, his aunt, thinking of him, how could he have gotten such a good opportunity!”
"Yes, yes, you're right, sister-in-law. We really owe a lot to you, sister-in-law. But the Wang family you mentioned is..."
As soon as the Wang family was mentioned, Sister-in-law Gu became interested and immediately started telling Lin Cai about how rich and powerful the Wang family was.
Hearing those words, Lin Cai also showed great interest in him and seemed eager to send Gu Dachui over as soon as possible.
After hearing what Gu's sister-in-law had said, Lin Cai looked at her with a fawning expression and said, "Sister-in-law, the Wang family is so rich, and they only have one daughter. The dowry for marrying into the family must be quite high, right?"
"I wonder how much the Wang family is willing to offer for Da Chui to marry into their family?"
Sister-in-law Gu also saw the greed on Lin Cai's face and cursed Lin Cai in her heart for being so short-sighted.
However, thinking of what the Wang family had given her, she patiently replied, "Of course, they received a lot of good stuff."
"What good stuff is there?" Lin Cai asked eagerly.
Then, Gu's eldest sister-in-law said triumphantly, "A pound of meat, a bag of sugar, and a chicken are enough to feed your family for a long time."
The implication was that Lin Cai's family had gotten a huge bargain.
Hearing what she said, Lin Cai stammered, "That's it?"
"That's all," replied the eldest sister-in-law of the Gu family.
"That's it?" Lin Cai asked again, unwilling to give up.
"Just like that, it's gone." Sister-in-law Gu frowned as she looked at Lin Cai.
As soon as she finished speaking, Lin Cai's expression changed: "A pound of meat, a bag of sugar, a chicken, and you want a son-in-law?"
