Rebirth 81: Being forced into marriage by my sister’s best friend at the beginning

Chapter 80 The friendship between gentlemen!Heading to Xiping Village

When they returned to the village entrance, Widow Wang and the others sat chatting under the big willow tree again.

Seeing Lin Ran coming back with a dilapidated suitcase, he couldn't help but laugh: "Xiao Ran, why are you dragging the suitcase back?"

That wasn't enough, she took a step forward to see what was in the suitcase.

Of course Lin Ran stopped her, which made Widow Wang very dissatisfied.

"It's not a treasure. Is there something shameful in it?"

"Even if it is, what does it have to do with you?" Lin Ran asked.

Going through someone else's suitcase is an extremely disrespectful thing in itself.

Of course, Lin Ran would not be polite to her. He snarled and hurried home happily.

Looking at Lin Ran's leaving figure and thinking about the increasingly better life of the Lin family, these gossips continued to chew their tongues behind their backs with some jealousy.

"In my opinion, he must have stolen something from someone else's house and even dragged the suitcase back."

"Hey, it's true, the house smells bad when you keep doing all this stuff."

"His father would be so sad if he knew."

Lin Ran had long been accustomed to their gossip.

When I got home, my mother had already prepared the meal.

In rural areas, people eat early. In order to save electricity, they usually don’t turn on the lights at night, so they finish their meals while it’s still dark.

"Xiao Ran, where did you go to make a fortune today?" Lin Wanjun couldn't help but joked when she saw her brother dragging his suitcase home.

Lin Ran chuckled: "I picked up a good treasure today."

"What?" Lin Wanjun's eyes lit up. Her brother always brought surprises to her.

Lin Ran showed the Lotus Dzi Bead to his sister and mother. Women are always interested in jewelry and other items.

Although they did not understand the value of the Lotus Dzi Beads, the mother and daughter found them very beautiful.

"Look at this lotus. It's so lifelike. It costs at least ten yuan, right?"

Lin Ran couldn't help but smile, but he did not tell the specific price.

Instead, he took out 1000 yuan from his pocket and handed it to his mother, saying, "Mom, this is the hard work I paid for helping people identify the goods today. Please accept it."

When they saw 1000 yuan in cash, their eyes widened instantly.

"Xiaoran, are you going to rob a bank?" Lin Wanjun joked.

"Sister, do you think I can rob a bank with my body?" Lin Ran rolled his eyes at her.

However, Lin's mother still looked like a traditional mother. She refused to accept the 1000 yuan and insisted on telling Lin Ran the origin of the money.

They are already used to it if they usually bring back a few hundred yuan.

But she was still a little worried about bringing so much at once, fearing that Lin Ran wouldn't be able to resist the temptation and go astray.

"It's okay, Mom, these are my appraisal fees, just accept them."

Lin Ran said: "Dad will be discharged from the hospital soon. Then the chickens at home will also be killed to supplement his nutrition."

"This money will be used to recuperate your health."

After hearing Lin Ran's explanation, her mother was still a little worried, but Lin Wanjun also helped to smooth things over and said, "Mom, haven't you gotten used to Xiaoran's magical performance during this time?"

The two siblings sang together and finally got their mother to take the money.

Lin Wanjun also held her mother's hand and comforted her: "Mom, this is Xiaoran's heart. Don't let him down."

There were tears in the mother's eyes. The two children were so sensible. My husband would definitely be happy to come out.

"Okay, mom will save it for you first, and I will return it to you when you need it."

After saying that, he carefully put away the money and then greeted the two siblings to eat.

……

After the meal, Lin Ran placed the products Ouzhu gave him one by one on the ground.

As he had predicted in the market before, except for the Lotus Dzi Beads, most of the remaining items were worthless things.

But it has certain archaeological significance.

As a leading figure in the industry in his previous life, Lin Ran's research on Tibetan Buddhism has never stopped, and they will also keep pace with the times.

Of course, this lotus dzi bead has covered the value of all commodities.

Lin Ran knew that as long as he sold the lotus dzi bead to the big boss, he would not only get a generous reward, but also sell him a favor.

Then you can ask him to solve Zhang Mazi's matter.

But he didn't want to.

He wiped the lotus dzi beads clean and put them together with the treasures he had found earlier.

He would never trade the Lotus Dzi Beads unless absolutely necessary.

It’s not just that Lotus Dzi Beads are extremely valuable and cannot be sold at a good price in this era.

More importantly, this is the agreement between him and Ouzhu.

This is the true friendship between gentlemen!

He has always been full of yearning for Tibetan areas, which are known as places of pilgrimage.

When people are confused, they often take a trip to Tibetan areas to stay away from the crowds and noise and feel inner peace.

Just like how this lotus dzi bead made him feel.

This was an agreement between him and Ouzhu. The days are long and he will definitely have the opportunity to visit Tibetan areas in the future.

When the time comes to show him this Lotus Dzi Bead, he will definitely be moved by it. In the distant capital, there is a young man who treats him as an old acquaintance.

The goods that Ouzhu gave him have been packed away. Some trinkets that can be sold are sorted out, and the rest are kept in his bedroom for safekeeping.

Lying on the bed, Lin Ran originally just wanted to lie down for a while and think about the future development.

But as soon as I lay down, a feeling of fatigue came over me.

Then I remembered that I had gone to two trading markets in one go today, dragging such a heavy suitcase.

Moreover, I have experienced so many things and met so many people.

If it weren't for Zhang Mazi, today would be a happy day.

Unfortunately, things didn't go as planned, and there was another troublesome thing ahead.

My father will be discharged from the hospital soon, there are still a few days left.

I had just undergone surgery. If I knew that such a big change had occurred in my family, I didn't know how angry I would be.

With his father's character, he is low-key and reserved, but it is absolutely impossible to watch his family being bullied.

It is very likely that Zhang Mazi will be troubled, and then the problem will become bigger.

Time is running out. Although his power is limited, as the only son in the family, he must solve the problem as soon as possible!

Dealing with the scumbag Zhang Mazi properly before his father comes home is the best of both worlds.

Lin Ran clenched his fists. This family had paid so much for him in his previous life, but he had no chance to repay.

In this life, even if I put in all my efforts, I must protect this family!

With the sound of insects outside the window, Lin Ran fell into sleep unconsciously.

Because he went to bed early yesterday, Lin Ran felt full of strength the next day, and the previous depression was gone.

After gathering my thoughts, I decided to try my luck in the nearby Xiping Village.

Xiping Village is located to the west of Xialin Village and is also the poorest village among the surrounding villages.

Many homes in their village do not yet have electricity, but it is rumored that during the Qing Dynasty, high-ranking officials once built villas in Xiping Village.

If you go there, you may actually gain something unexpected.

It's just that the journey is long and bumpy, and I'm afraid it will be another tiring day.

But thinking of his sister's grievances and the pain at home, Lin Ran felt filled with strength again.

"If you move people, they will live, but if you move trees, they will die. I don't believe that you can't fight against a local ruffian!"
