Through the troubled times and famine, I just want to farm peacefully
Chapter 303 Wood Carving
After entering the city, Lin Yinan stopped and turned to look at Lin Dongmei and her sister.
"What are you two planning?"
Lin Dongmei lowered her head uneasily, her hands tightly clasped together. The backs of her hands were rough, swollen and covered with cracks, looking like an old woman's hands. She was only fifteen years old this year.
With outstanding older brothers and sisters to support her, she has been responsible for all the dirty and tiring work at home since she was young.
Lin Yinan glanced at Lin Chunfang behind her. She shrank back behind her sister uneasily, revealing a pair of large eyes with distinct black and white.
Lin Chunfang was eleven years old, and his eyes were clear, no longer the ignorant youth.
"Sister Anan, please take us in, please?" Lin Dongmei begged, "I can do a lot of work."
Fearing that she would disagree, Lin Chunfang added in a low voice, "I can work, too. I don't eat as much as before."
"What if your mother comes looking for you?" Lin Yinan was afraid of that unreasonable woman.
Lin Chunfang waved her hands quickly, "She is not our mother. Even if she comes looking for me, I won't acknowledge her! Not only does she want to sell my second sister to the old man as a concubine, she also wants to sell me to a brothel for money."
Not only Lin Yinan, but even Lin Dongmei was stunned.
They didn't expect that Yu Suqin would even sell her own daughter for money. She was simply insane.
"You can stay here, but you can't be lazy at work. You have to follow the instructions. Can you do it?" Lin Yinan said seriously.
The two sisters nodded repeatedly, and Lin Chunfang even raised her finger to swear.
"No problem! We promise to work hard and not be lazy."
Then Lin Yinan took them to the dining hall. There was a room at the back where Yu Niang and her son had lived before, so they were allowed to stay there temporarily.
Leave the two sisters to Aunt Li and let them help in the cafeteria first.
During this period, many people came from the county town, and the canteen was temporarily overwhelmed.
After the guards tied up the evil woman and her family, the people waiting for registration outside the city gate became much more orderly and lined up consciously to wait for registration.
At this time, Liang Wen came out of the city with a group of people. They were preparing to reclaim the wasteland that had not been reclaimed last year and plant crops this year.
There were still a few people left before it was Aunt Liang's turn. She glanced at the team that was coming out.
"Liang Wen!" She murmured, somewhat unable to believe what she saw.
When Aunt Liang saw little brother Liang who had grown taller and bigger following Liang Wen, tears instantly flowed down her face.
"Boss, please help me check, are those the Liang Wen brothers?"
Aunt Liang's husband and son looked carefully and found that it was indeed the Liang Wen brothers.
"Liang Wen!" Aunt Liang's eldest son shouted at Liang Wen.
Liang Wen stopped when he heard the shouting, and when he saw the familiar faces of Aunt Liang and the others, he was stunned.
"aunt!"
"Brother, who are you looking at?" Liang was chatting and laughing with someone and didn't hear anyone calling him brother.
Liang Wen was a little excited, and his hands holding the hoe were shaking slightly, "Little brother, I saw our aunt's family."
Brother Liang followed his gaze and his eyes widened immediately.
"Brother, it's really our aunt."
So, Liang Wen gave instructions to the people in the team and walked towards the queue with his younger brother Liang.
"Aunt, uncle!"
Seeing the two brothers standing alive in front of her, Aunt Liang reached out to touch their faces in disbelief.
"It's great that you are all still alive!" she choked.
When the Japanese pirates came, everyone was busy escaping. After they escaped, she found that her brother and his family did not escape.
The two brothers are still alive, so are her younger brother and sister-in-law also alive? Aunt Liang looked at them with hope.
"Where are your parents?"
Liang Wen said sadly, "They are all gone."
His cousin quickly changed the subject, "I see that you two brothers are doing well now."
"Thanks to the city lord for taking us in." Liang Wen said sincerely when talking about this.
As they were talking, it was soon the turn of Aunt Liang's family to register.
Hearing that the village was to be rearranged, Aunt Liang stammered, "Can we go back to our original village?"
"Your original village is full. If you insist on going back, there will only be poor fields left in the village. All the good fields and good land have been divided up. If you go to the newly arranged village, you will be able to be allocated fertile fields." The clerk in charge of household registration advised.
Liang Wen, "Auntie, let's choose a new village. It has fertile fields and grows good food."
After hearing what her nephew said, Aunt Liang did not insist on returning to her original village.
"Then you can help us make the arrangements. Even if we go back to the old house, the thatched cottage would have collapsed long ago."
After Aunt Liang and her family had completed the registration, the clerk asked them to wait outside the city for a day before they would go to the village together early the next morning.
"Aunt, uncle, you guys rest here for a while, and when my brother and I get back from work, you can stay at our house for a night."
Aunt Liang and her husband said they had no objection, but my cousin asked, "Awen, where are you going?"
"We are going to open up wasteland over there."
"Come on, I'll go with you."
Liang Wen had no choice but to take his two cousins with him to the reclaimed land.
The two cousins were honest people with words in their eyes. After arriving at the wasteland, they did not sit there idly, but picked up sickles to help cut the grass.
After work, Brother Liang Wen took Aunt Liang and her family into the city. He cut two pounds of meat at the Longtan Grain Store and planned to cook it at home in the evening.
Seeing him buying so much meat at once, Aunt Liang was frightened and said that the two brothers did not know how to live. Liang Wen had to explain to her that it was a reward given last year. The two brothers usually ate in the cafeteria and had not spent a penny.
At first, Aunt Liang was skeptical, but when she saw the house allocated to them by the county government, she had to believe it.
"The city lord is such a good man!"
After dinner, the family sat in the yard and chatted in the dim light.
My cousin fumbled in his bag and took out a few exquisite wood carvings.
"Awen, I carved this for you."
Liang Wen took the wood carving in his hand and examined it carefully. "Cousin, did you carve this? It looks just like the real thing!"
“Hey, I carved it for fun.” The cousin smiled embarrassedly when he was praised.
After looking for a while, Liang Wen seemed to suddenly think of something and stood up abruptly.
"Little brother, you take care of my aunt and uncle. I'm going to go out for a while."
As he said this, he hurried out holding the wood carving in his hand.
After dinner, Lin Yinan had a rare moment of leisure.
Yun Shijiu rarely got close to her today, so he held her in his arms and took a walk in the yard. The mother and daughter were whispering to each other about something, and Yun Shijiu laughed from time to time.
From a distance, she saw Yun Mo and Liang Wen walking in.
"An Nan, Liang Wen said he wants to talk to you about something."
"City Lord!"
Liang Wen bowed to Lin Yinan, then spread out his palms, revealing several exquisite wood carvings.
"City Lord, look at this!"
Yun Shijiu in her arms thought it was something for her, so she quickly stretched out her paw to take it.
Lin Yinan picked up the wooden sculpture and stuffed one into Yun Shijiu's hand.
The wood carving in his hand is exquisitely crafted, and the expression on the face is lifelike.
"Where did you get this?"
Liang Wen said excitedly, "This was carved by my cousin."
Then, he told Lin Yinan about his encounter with his aunt’s family.
"Your uncle and two cousins are all carpenters?"
"Yes, these dolls were made by my cousin."
She was worried about not being able to find a craftsman who could carve, and then someone gave her a pillow just when she felt sleepy. Lin Yinan was overjoyed.
"Okay! Tell them not to leave in a hurry tomorrow. I'll meet them."
"Okay, I'll go back and tell them."
After handing the remaining dolls to Lin Yinan, Liang Wen returned home with a brisk pace.
He had a hunch that his aunt and uncle's family would definitely be able to stay in Longtan County.
