Siheyuan: The wife was intercepted after returning from the battlefield
Chapter 32 Proposal
It turns out that the girl's name is Lin Qingyan. Her father was a private school teacher before liberation. Although their life was poor, they could still have enough food and clothing. She has an older brother, Lin Yong, and a twin sister, Lin Qingya, who is eighteen years old this year.
When she was eight years old, her father died of illness, and she relied on her mother to raise the three siblings. In the past two years, her mother's health was not good and she needed a lot of money for medical treatment. The family's situation also deteriorated rapidly. Not only did they owe a lot of money to the village, but life became difficult. In addition, there was a famine this year, and the family really couldn't make ends meet. Usually, the two sisters would go into the mountains together to find food, but the younger sister was sick, so Lin Qingyan went into the mountains to find food by herself. Unexpectedly, she was bitten by a snake. If she hadn't met Lin Ping, her life would be in danger.
After Lin Ping understood the situation, he smiled and said, "I didn't expect that we both have the last name Lin. We might have been one family five hundred years ago. I'll take you back to the village. You can't leave on your own in this state."
Lin Qingyan still needed to find something to eat, so how could she agree? She struggled to get up, but Lin Ping held her down and said, "Think about what would happen to your family if something happened to you?"
Lin Qingyan compromised after hearing this, and Lin Ping smiled and said, "Wait for me to get something and then we'll go back."
Knowing the difficulties of the Lin family, Lin Ping took out a 30-pound wild boar from the storage space and returned to the original place. He picked up Lin Qingyan and said, "Come on, I'll take you home."
Lin Qingyan exclaimed, her face flushed, "Put me down quickly, if someone sees me like this, will I still be alive?"
Lin Ping said seriously: "Can you leave by yourself? Besides, I will take responsibility for it." After that, he ignored Lin Qingyan's struggle, hugged her and strode out of the forest.
Lin Qingyan's heart was beating like a deer, and she shyly buried her head in Lin Ping's arms, not daring to look up.
Arriving at the foot of the mountain, Lin Ping asked, "Qingyan, where do you live?"
Lin Qingyan whispered, "Linjia Village." Then she showed Lin Ping the way.
Holding Lin Qingyan and a little wild boar in his hands, he walked towards Linjia Village. When he arrived at the village entrance, he found that it was only a few miles away from Wangjiabao.
When they arrived at the village entrance, Lin Qingyan refused to let Lin Ping hold her, and struggled to get off the ground, insisting on walking by herself. Lin Ping knew that the girl was young, so he did not force her, but just stretched out a hand to support her.
Although Lin Qingyan's face turned red, she did not struggle anymore.
Just as he arrived at the gate of Lin's house, a girl rushed out from the yard. Lin Ping was a little dumbfounded. Although he knew that Lin Qingyan had a twin sister, they looked too much alike, with the same height and figure. Lin Ping couldn't tell which was which.
Seeing her sister coming back so early and with a strange man by her side, Lin Qingya immediately asked cautiously, "Sister, who is he?"
It’s no wonder that Lin Qingya is vigilant, as there are many people in the village who are concerned about them and their sisters.
After Lin Qingyan explained the whole story, Lin Qingya's hostility was reduced a lot, and she stepped aside to let Lin Ping into the yard.
Lin Qingyan asked, "Aren't you still having a fever? Why did you get out of bed?"
Lin Qingya smiled and said, "I'm much better." Although she said that, her face looked pale and weak.
The three of them came into the house. Lin Ping put the little wild boar on the ground. Before he could say anything, a middle-aged woman came out from the inner room, looked at Lin Ping and asked, "Who are you?"
Lin Qingyan had to explain it again. The woman said gratefully, "Thank you, young man. If it weren't for you, we Qingyan would be finished." After she said that, her eyes turned red.
Lin Qingyan advised: "Mom, I'm fine, don't worry."
The woman sighed, "It is my body that has brought trouble upon you all. I might as well just die."
Lin Qingyan's eyes turned red when she heard this and said, "Mom, what nonsense are you talking about? You still want to live a hundred years."
The woman touched Lin Qingyan's head lovingly and said with a smile: "Okay, don't let the guests laugh at you."
After saying that, he turned to Qingya and said, "Hurry up and cook. The guests must not have eaten yet."
Lin Qingya nodded, turned around and went out to cook.
Lin Ping was thinking about the girl and wanted to please his future mother-in-law, so he said, "Auntie, I can treat illnesses. How about I take a look at you?"
Lin Qingyan was surprised to hear this: "Brother Lin, can you treat illnesses?"
Lin Ping smiled and nodded, "I know a little bit."
Lin Qingya said quickly: "Then you can take a look at my mother. My mother has been ill for several years and she can't be cured."
The woman shook her head and said, "Forget it. I know my illness is incurable. Now that your elder brother is getting married, I am afraid I won't see you get married."
Lin Ping smiled and said, "Auntie, please let me try."
The woman had a very good impression of Lin Ping, so she smiled and said, "Then you can give it a try."
Lin Ping didn't know how to treat illnesses, he just pretended to feel her pulse, then said, "Madam, I can treat your illness, but you need silver needles. I'll go to town to buy some tomorrow and treat you."
Lin Qingyan said happily after hearing this: "That's great, Brother Lin, I don't know what to say. Not only did you save my life, but now you have cured my mother. I really don't know how to repay you."
Lin Ping said casually: "Then pledge yourself to me." As soon as he finished speaking, he felt something was wrong and quickly touched his nose and laughed dryly twice.
Lin Qingyan's face turned red with shame and she said angrily, "Brother Lin, what nonsense are you talking about?"
The woman looked at Lin Ping meaningfully, thinking that he was indeed here for her daughter. However, the young man was a good person, and if he had a good family background, he would be a good match for her.
Lin Qingyan's face flushed as she lowered her head and twisted the corner of her clothes. Lin Ping knew he had said the wrong thing, so he laughed it off and said, "Qingyan, I was just kidding."
The woman didn't think so, otherwise why would Lin Ping be so eager to treat her illness? So she began to ask Lin Ping about his family affairs in a roundabout way. When she learned that Lin Ping was the security chief of the Sijiucheng Steel Rolling Mill, she couldn't help but start to worry whether her daughter was worthy of him. She became anxious and worried for a while.
After a while, Lin Qingya came in with a meal, including a few vegetable dumplings and a big pot of porridge.
Lin Ping knew that this was the greatest sincerity the Lin family could show, so he didn’t despise it and ate the vegetable dumplings and porridge directly. He wiped his mouth and said, “Thank you, I’m full.”
The woman was very pleased when she saw him, thinking that he was a good young man, but she didn't know whether his family was satisfied with this marriage, so she smiled and said, "It's good as long as you are full."
Lin Qingya curled her lips and said, "You are such a good eater. You ate all our dinner."
Lin Qingyan glared at her sister and said, "Qingya, stop talking nonsense."
Lin Ping didn't care and smiled, "Auntie, I'm going to go back first. I'll come back tomorrow to treat you after I buy some silver needles."
The woman smiled and said, "Okay."
After Lin Ping left, Lin Qingya pouted and said, "Sister, what are we going to eat at home tonight? Brother and sister-in-law can't not eat when they come back from the county town, right?"
Lin Qingyan pointed at the wild boar on the ground and asked, "Look what that is?"
Lin Qingya saw the wild boar left by Lin Ping and jumped up and asked, "Why didn't that man take the wild boar with him?"
The woman smiled and said, "They left it there on purpose. I'm afraid your sister is going to get married."
Lin Qingyan's face flushed red with shame when she heard this, making her look even more beautiful. She hugged the woman's arm and said coquettishly, "Mom..."
Lin Qingya opened her mouth in surprise and asked, "You just met, and you're talking about marriage so soon?"
The woman smiled and said, "That young man is a good person, but he is an official of a large factory in the city. I don't know if his family is willing to let him marry a rural girl. If this marriage can really be accomplished, your sister will be blessed."
Without mentioning what the mother and daughter of the Lin family thought, Lin Ping returned to Wangjiabao and threw a wild boar on the ground as soon as he entered the house.
Looking at the wild boar weighing more than 100 kilograms, Wang Daniu said in surprise: "Well done, Pingzi, you really managed to catch it."
Lin Ping ignored Wang Daniu and said to Sanni, "Aunt, do you know Lin Qingyan from Linjia Village?"
Sanni was stunned at first, but then she understood. The two sisters from the Lin family were very famous in the neighborhood. There were so many people proposing marriage to them that it was not surprising that her nephew fell in love with them.
So he smiled and said, "How could you not know? They are two famous sisters in the area. Why are you attracted to them?"
Lin Ping admitted generously: "Yes, I like her. Can you propose to me, aunt?"
Sanni smiled and said, "It's no problem to propose marriage. With your situation, you are a good match for her. I just don't know if my elder sister is willing for you to marry a country girl?"
Lin Ping waved his hands and said, "Why not? My mother has been arranging blind dates for me every day in the past few years. If she knew I was going to get married, she would be so happy that she would die."
Sanni smiled and said, "Okay, then I'll go and propose marriage to you."
The next morning.
Lin Ping ran to the county town to buy a pair of silver needles, and then brought Sanni and some gifts to Linjia Village.
When Li Fang saw Lin Ping bringing people here, she knew what was going on and was very happy. No matter whether Lin Ping could cure the disease or not, her daughter would be able to marry into a good family, so she enthusiastically invited Sanni and Lin Ping into the house.
The eldest son and his wife of the Lin family also knew that someone was coming to treat their mother today, so they were waiting at home. It can be seen that this situation did not look like someone coming to treat an illness, but rather like someone coming to propose marriage.
Sure enough, after they sat down, Sanni smiled and said, "Sister Fang, I came here today mainly to propose marriage to my Pingzi. I wonder what your family thinks?"
The woman looked at Lin Qingyan, and when she saw her daughter run into the house in shame, she understood her daughter's thoughts, so she asked, "I don't have any requirements. As long as they are attracted to each other, I will agree. But there is one thing. Will your family agree to let you marry a rural girl?"
After saying that, she looked at Lin Ping seriously, and Lin Ping also said seriously: "Don't worry, Auntie, I can decide my own marriage, and I can give Qingyan the life she wants, and I will never let her down in the future."
The woman nodded and said, "Okay, I agree to this marriage."
Lin Ping said embarrassedly: "Auntie, I want to take Qingyan with me when I go back. When we get to Sijiu City, we can get the marriage certificate. Is that ok with you?"
The woman turned around and called Lin Qingyan out, asking, "Qingyan, what do you mean?"
Lin Qingyan blushed and lowered her head and said, "I will listen to my mother."
Sanni was overjoyed when she heard this, and smiled at Lin Ping, "Why are you standing there like an idiot? Why don't you give the betrothal gift to your mother-in-law?"
Lin Ping came to his senses after hearing this and quickly took out two hundred yuan from his pocket and handed it to Li Fang. In fact, he took it out from the space.
Li Fang had never seen so much money before, so she quickly pushed the money back and said, "Pingzi, you gave us too much. We are not selling our daughter. Put the money away quickly, or I will be angry."
Lin Ping knew that this person was being honest, so he advised: "Even if you don't think about yourself, you should think about Qingyan. I know a little bit about the situation at home. Do you think Qingyan can go with me without worry? Besides, this little money is really nothing to me. You can take it without worry. Otherwise, Qingyan will not be able to go with me without worry."
Although the Lin family's son and daughter-in-law were jealous of the money, they did not show any greed. Lin Ping saw all of this.
