   Although she didn't like Ji's family, Zhao Liniang still prepared a generous homecoming gift, half a basket of vegetables and four eggs, and finally, a piece of bacon was added. This homecoming gift for ordinary people is usually Zhao Liniang was willing to give a large piece of meat to some common farm products that were not very valuable, which could be regarded as a generous husband's family, which showed that he valued brother Yan very much and gave him face in front of his mother's family.

The bacon was prepared for Lin Lixuan when he got married. At that time, Zhao Liniang bought four catties of fresh fat meat and five catties of bacon. , It can be stored for a long time. These days, fingernail-sized slices of meat are mixed with stir-fried vegetables in the dishes, and there is not much left. Zhao Liniang felt a little distressed when cutting the meat.

Handing the bamboo basket full of items to Ji Yan, Zhao Liniang watched them go out.

Lin Lixuan walked out of the Lin family's yard for the first time, and looked at the scenery of Bixi Village quite curiously. They went out earlier, the morning dew on the weeds by the roadside was crystal clear, and only a round of orange red appeared faintly on the corner of the mountain, but the village There have been people smoking for a long time.

He didn't know where Ji's family was, so he followed Ji Yan closely, turned his head and asked the young man next to him, "Do you want me to get it?"

Ji Yan shook his head and smiled slightly: "It's not heavy, Brother Lin, I'll come Just take it." Brother Yan has been in a good mood since he left the house, with a smile on his lips, two dimples on his cheeks, very cute.

Lin Lixuan didn't force him when he rejected him. Although he felt a lot of pity for the thin young man in front of him, he still regarded him as a man in his heart. Shuang'er's appearance is not much different from that of a man, except that there is a pregnancy mole between the eyebrows. Although Lin Lixuan has inherited some memories from the original owner, he is not born and raised here. He has only seen Ji Yan and Shuang'er so far. The world's gender consciousness remains ambiguous.

An old man with a hoe on his shoulder, a sickle in his hand, and wearing worn-out shorts walked towards the two of them. The old man's bronze-colored arms were bare-exposed. Although he was old, his tense muscles still looked very powerful. He recognized Brother Yan, and when he saw him, he greeted him with a smile: "Good morning, Brother Yan."

Ji Yan nodded with a smile, and said, "Good morning, Grandpa Cheng."

Lin Lixuan followed suit and said hello.

The old man's wife and children died early, and he was lonely for most of his life. Because he had no children or grandchildren, he took great care of the juniors in the village, and he had a good relationship with Ji Yanhe.

Uncle Cheng's bright eyes swept over Lin Lixuan, and he asked in surprise, "Lin Xiucai, are you... alright?

" My mind cleared up, and I remembered the past." Although it wasn't a stupid thing done by myself, but now he has become Lin Lixuan here, and the original owner can't let him do it.

"Just think about it, and live a good life with Brother Yan in the future." Uncle Cheng said cheerfully. A few days ago, he was still regretting that Brother Yan had a miserable life and married a fool. Who knew Lin Xiucai was not stupid Yes, this is really a happy event.

Ji Yan turned his head to look at Lin Lixuan, and nodded embarrassingly at Uncle Cheng. The old man laughed, his bark-like eyes wrinkled, and asked again: "Are you going to accompany Brother Yan back home?" "

"Yes."

"..."

Uncle Cheng chatted with them casually, and continued to walk forward with a hoe on his shoulders. After a few steps, the old man was still a little puzzled: how do you feel... this Lin Xiucai is the same as before? Not the same?

The old man has lived for so long and is very familiar with every household in the village. It's not that he has never seen the former Lin Lixuan and the former Lin Xiucai. To be able to talk to an old man like him in a harmonious voice today, and there is no incomprehensible words like "Zhihu Zheye" in his mouth...

However, Lin Xiucai should have changed after going through the previous catastrophe. Just hope that this couple can live a good life in the future.

Lin Lixuan and Ji Yan walked all the way, attracting the attention of all the villagers like monkeys being watched, especially the few women standing and talking in twos and threes by the field. Whispering and pointing at them, they don't know what they are talking about.

Lin Lixuan has long been used to all kinds of gazes in modern times, and he doesn't care about the visits of those uncles and aunts. He generously lets them watch, and is not afraid of their discussion, but Ji Yan next to him seems at a loss and nervous He tugged at his sleeve: "Brother Lin, let's go quickly."

"You said... isn't Lin Xiucai stupid?" A middle-aged woman with a white scarf on her head asked in surprise.

Shuang'er, who was about forty years old and had a scar on his face, said, "It seems so, you can see that the smirk around his mouth is gone, he looks like a normal person, and he was talking to Uncle Cheng just now. Another gentle-looking aunt said: "

Looks like you are quite compatible with Brother Yan." Once

passed on to ten, ten to a hundred, "That stupid scholar of the Lin family who has been stupid for three years is not stupid anymore!!!" This one is amazing The news instantly swept the gossip circle of Shuang'er, a woman in Bixi Village.

In the past few days, Zhao Liniang also told the villagers she met that her son had recovered from his illness and was no longer stupid. Because in the past, as long as Lin Lixuan showed any signs of normalcy, Zhao Liniang was convinced that he had recovered from his illness, and told the villagers everywhere.

Now her son has really improved, but no one believes her words.

Now that everyone actually saw Lin Lixuan who had returned to normal, only later did they realize that Zhao Liniang hadn't lied, and that Lin Xiucai was really healed.

Didn't Brother Yan get lucky and marry a scholar? From the looks of it, Lin Xiucai... seems to be nice to him?

Ji's family also has two new couples returning home this day.

Three days ago, three couples had their wedding ceremony on the same day. This is a common occurrence in the village, because weddings require wine and banquets, and banquets cost money. Being crowded together can save a lot of money.

Mrs. Ji handed the two baskets back home to the two couples respectively. A simple-looking man with strong limbs took the basket from his grandmother with a smile on his face. Standing beside him was a handsome pair who was a head shorter than him. Son, those pair of sons are embracing his arms, like a bird clinging to a person.

And another handsome man with excellent facial features seemed not so happy to take the basket, there was no smile on his face, and reluctance was written all over his body.

"Accompany your daughters-in-law to go back to your natal home." Mrs. Ji instructed, she is a short woman with mean looks and high cheekbones. She is the biggest person in Ji's family and takes care of everything in the family. The old lady's husband died early, and she brought up all three sons, all of whom were extremely filial to her.

Mrs. Ji's eldest son is named Ji Youcai, and the villagers call him Boss Ji. He is kind, dumb-mouthed, not very good at speaking, and is an honest middle-aged man. . Among the three sons, Mrs. Ji dislikes him the most. The other two sons are married and have children, and the eldest is still a bachelor. Mrs. Ji excuses that her eldest son has a bad fate and should not marry early. He didn't want to give out the dowry money for Boss Ji's marriage at all. The second and third child had landed on the ground, and Boss Ji was still single. Fortunately, he later met a woman Li Yue'e who was fleeing famine, and he was willing to marry him without anything. Family.

When Li Yue'e chose to marry him, many men in the village envied Boss Ji. This was probably the happiest time in Ji Youcai's life for half his life.

Li Yue'e was born an extremely beautiful woman, even if she was fleeing famine, her black clothes and muddy face still did not hide her beauty. She claimed to be the servant girl of a wealthy family, and was forced to escape because her master's family suffered a disaster. However, some gossiping women in Bixi Village said behind their backs that she was the housewife of a rich man who was kicked out because of a mistake...

After she married Boss Ji, she gave birth to him a son and two ... The eldest son is named Ji Qian, and the twin brothers are eighteen-year-old Ji Yan and nine-year-old Ji Yu. Ji Qian, Ji Yan, and Ji Yu all inherited Li Yue'e's appearance, and they were extremely born. outstanding.

Mrs. Ji's second son, Ji Youjin, also works in the fields and is fairly honest. His wife, Liu Yufeng, is aggressive and lazy. She yells all day in the village and always finds ways to avoid working at home.

Ji Youjin has two sons. The eldest son Ji Shu is an active worker at the county dock. He was married the year before last, and the eldest daughter-in-law is the daughter of a shopkeeper. The second son, Ji Ya, has a simple and honest appearance and an honest appearance. Three days ago, he married Ji Yanyi and married Zhao Qingqing, a handsome twin son from Zhaojia Village.

What Mrs. Ji loves the most is her third son, Ji Youyin. Ji Youyin is very cute, has a sharp mouth, and is a youngest son, so she is very fond of Mrs. Ji. When he was fifteen or sixteen, Mrs. Ji gave him He found a master carpenter and learned the craft of carpentry. The elder brother and the second elder brother made a living from the fields. As long as he made good furniture, they lived a much more prosperous life than the elder brother and the second elder brother.

He has a couple of sons and daughters, and his son Ji Xuan is still studying in the county academy. Just like Zhao Liniang is willing to devote everything to Lin Lixuan's education, Mrs. Ji is also very partial to her precious grandson, and she is willing to use the family's public money to send him to study. The other grandchildren will not be given away if they can read a few words. Only Ji Xuan can continue to stay in the academy.

His youngest daughter, Ji Ru, was pampered by her mother Liu Li since she was a child. Liu Li wholeheartedly hoped that her daughter could climb high.

Boss Ji's eldest son Ji Qian, his twin son Ji Yan, and Ji's second son Ji Ya got married on the same day. Speaking of which, Ji Qian and Ji Ya's dowry gifts for marrying a daughter-in-law all came from Mrs. Ji's order from Zhao Liniang. Thirteen taels of silver.
