I escaped from natural disasters and won by relying on the system.

Where did this brother-in-law get the fruit?

She had never seen such beautiful fruits when she was at her mother's house. They must be delicious.

Wang Guihua thought about it while swallowing her saliva frantically.

Lin Wan was also stunned by the fruit her elder brother brought out.

Even when her father was still alive, she had never seen such big and good fruits.

After she reacted, she quickly snatched the fruit from the two children's hands, put the two halves together and handed them to Lin Heng.

"Brother, where did you get the fruit?"

"The owner of the bookstore just gave it to the kids. Please don't mess with it."

Lin Heng handed the apples to the two children again and glared at his younger sister.

Wang Guihua looked anxious, as if she wanted to say something but hesitated.

Lin Heng pretended not to see it and deliberately provoked him, "Eat quickly, this is a tribute to the nobles in the capital, ordinary people can't eat it."

When Wang Guihua heard Lin Heng say this, she became even more jealous.

After waiting for a long time, seeing that Lin Heng had no intention of giving it to her, she awkwardly withdrew her outstretched hand.

While swallowing his saliva, he kept muttering how stingy his uncle was.

Lin Wan had no time to care about Wang Guihua at this moment. Any delicious food at home was usually eaten by her sister-in-law and her family.

Now that her elder brother has given her things, she will not be generous to others.

Lin Wan recalled that her sister-in-law brought back a few wrinkled fruits the size of a child's fist a few days ago, and said they were 20 cents each.

Now, the two fruits that my eldest brother brought over are probably worth a month’s salary for him.

She felt that her eldest brother must have spent a lot of money to buy this fruit for Ke'er. Even if Shopkeeper Zhang treated her eldest brother well, he would not give such good fruit to her eldest brother.

But if he bought it, where did he buy it?

Forget it, don’t think too much about it. Ke’er was injured so badly, she needs to be well nursed back to health. This fruit should be taken back for Ke’er to eat.

So she took the fruit from the two children and planned to return it to her eldest brother.

The two children looked at their empty hands, then at the big, red fruit in their mother's hands, and pouted their lips as if they wanted to cry.

Xiao Tongtong was young after all, and she couldn't resist the temptation of the fruit, so she burst into tears.

"Look at you. You said you would give the food to the child, so you should give it to the child. Why are you making such a fuss?"

Lin Heng said as he snatched the two halves of the apple from Lin Wan's hands and handed them back to the two children.

"Eat quickly. Your uncle tells you to eat, so just eat well. I don't want to see who dares to say anything more."

When Xiao Tongtong saw the fruit was back in her hands, she stopped crying immediately.

While sobbing, he glanced at his mother out of the corner of his eye.

Lin Wan was glared at by her eldest brother, and then looked at the two children who were looking at her eagerly.

I couldn't bear it, so I nodded.

"yeah!"

The two children cheered and raised the fruits in their hands to take a bite.

This fruit is really big, even bigger than their faces.

Wang became unhappy when she saw that she had nothing to do with the whole tug of war.

He said to the two children, "You unruly brats, you don't know how to respect your elders when you have good things, and you put them in your mouth first. Your grandparents really love you in vain."

Lin Heng frowned.

Although there was an element of intent in his action, as an aunt, labeling the two children as unfilial is actually ruining them.

Lin Heng's face darkened.

"Sister-in-law, be careful what you say. Can't the child eat a few bites of what my uncle gave him?

I have never seen a family with two sons who still needs a few-year-old grandson to take care of them. You are the first.

I want to go out on the street and ask what the reason is!"

“You, you…I, I…!”

"You greedy woman, what are you talking about here? Come back with me."

Along with the voice came a middle-aged man with a big belly and a greasy face.

This person is Li Song’s elder brother Li Dachuan.

After scolding his wife, Li Dachuan turned around and said with a smile: "Oh, my brother-in-law is here, please go to the backyard and sit down and have a drink of water. This woman is ignorant, please don't bother with her."

Lin Heng couldn't bear to look at Brother Li Song's greasy yet elegant appearance.

It depends on how many years of education Li Song has received. He has the temperament of a scholar, which is a world of difference compared to his older brother.

While Li Dachuan was greeting Lin Heng, he stared at the apples in the hands of the two children.

After chatting for a long time, seeing that Lin Heng had no intention of giving him any fruit, he frowned and took his wife back to the backyard.

The two children only felt relieved and ate the delicious fruit when they saw that their uncle and aunt, whom they were most afraid of, had left.

Xiao Tongtong took the first bite.

Then he looked at Lin Heng with shining eyes and happily circled around Lin Heng.

"Uncle, the fruit is delicious."

Lin Heng touched Xiao Tongtong's little bun and said to the two children, "If it tastes good, eat it quickly. Uncle has more here.

Then he broke off an apple and handed it to Lin Wan and her husband, asking them to eat it first before talking.

Seeing that their eldest brother insisted, Lin Wan and the others stopped refusing.

Besides, the two of them also thought it through. Since the eldest brother insisted on giving it to them, if they didn't eat it, it wouldn't be able to enter their parents' stomachs, so they might as well eat it themselves.

So they each took half of the fruit and started eating.

After taking a bite, both of them squinted their eyes happily.

This is really, really, really delicious.

The two children only knew that it tasted good, but they didn’t know how rare such fruit was in this world.

The fact that my brother-in-law is willing to give them such good fruits to eat is enough to show how much he values ​​them.

Thinking about the expressions of his elder brother and sister-in-law, Li Song felt sad.

It's a pity that the grocery store is occupied by his eldest brother and his wife. He is just a handyman now and can't even give his eldest brother-in-law a discount.

Thinking of this, Li Song lowered his head in shame again.

After watching the two finish eating, Lin Heng asked Li Song to pack the food and calculate the money, while he took Lin Wan aside to talk.

When Lin Wan saw her elder brother's attitude, she knew that he had something important to tell her.

Puzzled, "Brother, what happened?"

Lin Heng glanced at his busy brother-in-law and said loudly, "It's nothing. Things have been a little bit unstable recently. Buy some more food when you are free."

Then he whispered to Lin Wan, "If one day we want to leave Lin'an County and live somewhere else, will you come with us?"

Lin Wan was shocked: "Brother, where are you going? Why are you leaving?"

"I don't know. It hasn't been decided yet. But it's been dry for two years. You know how much food prices have risen recently. If it doesn't rain, no one will be able to survive."

Lin Wan had been smart since she was young, and she immediately understood that something big must have happened.

Otherwise, who would be willing to leave the place where they have lived all their lives and go to an unknown place to make a living?

But she also knew the character of her family members, so she didn't say much.

Lin Wan glanced at Li Song and said, "Of course I want to be with my mother and elder brother, but you also know that my husband has always been filial and may not be able to leave his parents-in-law."

Lin Heng also understood his brother-in-law's personality and knew that this matter would most likely not succeed.

But I hope the little bit of ingredients he added today will have some effect.

Lin Heng sighed, "It won't hurt to prepare more food. We'll let you know when we really need to leave."

"Okay, I understand, brother." Lin Wan replied with tears in her eyes.

After this departure, they don’t know if they will ever see each other again in this life.

The two chatted for a while, and seeing that Li Song had packed all his things, Lin Heng put the silver on the counter, said goodbye to the two and left.

Li Song couldn't be the owner of a grocery store, so he could only accept Lin Heng's money with a blushing face.

Fortunately, I weighed a little more when I weighed things for my brother-in-law, so I don’t think my brother and sister-in-law would notice.

Turning around, he saw his wife’s eyes were red, and he asked her what was wrong with concern.

Lin Wan blinked and said to Li Song, "It's nothing. Just now, my elder brother said that Xiao Ke'er is much better now. I am happy."

Li Song didn't understand the situation, but he was happy for his niece Lin Ke.

Lin Wan looked at her husband's silly look and sighed softly.

He then said, "Brother Gang also said that the price of food has increased again in the past two days, so he asked us to stock up more food."

"You know, we can't make the decision at home. I'm afraid my elder brother and his wife won't agree to this."

"Alas!" they both lamented at the same time.

Suddenly, Lin Wan had an idea: "I still have a few taels of private money, which I earned from embroidery work. How about I give it to my eldest brother and ask him to buy food for us, and then hide it for emergency use."

Li Song's eyes lit up after hearing this: "This is a good idea. If we really run out of food, given the temperament of my eldest brother and his wife, our family will definitely not get any food. We should also make some plans for ourselves."

Then he rummaged around in a corner of the grocery store and took out a dime, which was worth about two taels.

He said a little ashamedly: "I, I have only secretly saved this little money over the years..."

When Lin Wan saw the silver that Li Song took out, she was even more shocked than when she saw the fruit given by her elder brother.

Who would have thought that her husband could save up these two taels of silver right under the nose of Zhou Ba Pi's sister-in-law!

It really impressed her.
