Chapter 729 Old Shadows of the Republic of China (16) Three in One(1/2)
Old shadow of the Republic of China 16
If you have seen this woman speak Japanese in kimono, then her identity is not difficult to guess. Even if you are not a Japanese, you have long since defected to the Japanese traitor. It is really not a good thing to be involved in this kind of thing.
Therefore, Lin Yuhuai glanced at the check handed over by the woman and said inexplicably: "What are you doing with me a piece of paper?"
"Sir, this is a check. You can be in the bank." The woman smiled and explained that those around her could not help but laugh with kindness.
"I don't know you. I haven't seen you before!" Lin Yuhuai shook his head, hugged Lin Dehai and left the scene with great strides.
"Hey" The woman shouted from behind and saw Lin Yuhuai not hearing it, but in a blink of an eye, she turned into the alley on the side without any trace.
The man in the car said, "Okay, Fangzi. Put away your kindness."
The woman looked around with a smile on her face and then returned to the car helplessly. The smile on her face instantly stopped and said, "Don't talk if you don't understand. When the man just talked to us, there were at least three lipbas around him. Some things are not OK without these lipbas. Why do you have to use a whip to solve the problem that can be solved by this little money? What is this effort compared to the benefits we get?"
The man snorted lightly, but did not continue to speak.
The woman, known as Fangzi, looked out and then said coldly: "Drive."
Lin Yuhuai did not take Lin Dehai to the hospital. First, he did not bring so much money on him. Second, in his opinion, other medical skills were simply unsatisfactory than his own girls. He could bring back the remaining breath from the gates of hell. Such medical skills were doubtful? Lin Dehai was drowsy, but when he opened his eyes, he looked at it as the way home, and he also felt relieved. Compared to the Western doctors in the hospital who had to perform surgery at any time with knives and saws, he still believed in traditional Chinese medicine more.
Before the father and son could come back, the child who was playing at the door quickly ran back to notify their Mr. Lin. Therefore, as soon as Lin Yuhuai entered the door, he saw Lin Yutong waiting.
"This is" Lin Yutong's No. 1 pulse, "Is there a car accident?" Otherwise, it would not be such a way to get hurt.
But why did you get into a car accident? The chance of a car accident is lower now than being kicked in the head by a donkey.
While putting the person on the kang, Lin Yuhuai said, "It was all done by him. It wasn't the car that hit him, it was him who hit him!"
"Pay" Lin Dehai struggled to say, "Pay money"
"What are you still paying?" Lin Yuhuai snorted, "If someone doesn't let you compensate you, we should burn incense. If you want others to compensate, you think everyone is fool! Besides, who do you think the person in the car is? If you are willing to cheat by you, then we have to be careful. Who knows what the next plan is? I beg you to rest at home when you are old. If you like to go to Widow Liu's house, we don't stop you. Can you stop?"
This sentence makes Lin Dehai so embarrassed: "I'm helping"
Go to the widow's house to help? What are you doing?
Lin Yuhuai ignored him and turned to look at Lin Yutong who was busy pinching the needle: "How is it? It's okay."
Lin Yutong looked with a tiger's face: "I almost had to slump on the kang. It's hard to say what I could recover." As he said that, he blinked at Lin Yuhuai with his back on his back.
Lin Yuhuai understood, but the expression on his face was a little relieved: "It's okay to be paralyzed! It's okay to be paralyzed! I'm saving myself from going out to cause trouble for me." He turned around and walked away as if he was impatient in the room. "You take care of me here, I'll talk to my brother-in-law."
Lin Dehai pointed at Lin Yuhuai's back and gasped, his eyes filled with grievances as if he was looking forward to Lin Yutong making the decision for him. Lin Yutong's hands were very vigorous. Lin Dehai hissed, tears were almost falling, and his mouth was whimpering. This time he almost lost his life, and the debt of 200 yuan was still not settled.
Lin Yutong ignored him and saw Xingzi coming in, she reminded him: "Don't call me off the kang. I'll go back and prescribe the prescription, and I'll call me to deliver it after I catch the medicine."
Xingzi responded and stood up to send Lin Yutong out. Lin's mother came out of the room opposite and whispered: "I'll go for serving him, don't ask Xingzi to come forward."
Lin Yutong was stunned for a moment and understood a little. After all, Xingzi was not Lin Dehai's biological daughter, so it was indeed inconvenient to serve her in close proximity. But if she wanted her biological daughter to serve her, she would rather spend money to hire someone. This so-called father-daughter relationship is really not close to this.
Before Xingzi could react, Lin Dehai inside could speak again after using the needle. He probably heard Lin's mother's words and was furious inside, "You don't need to serve him. If you are really mean, please bring Widow Liu."
Lin's mother leaned against the door and snorted coldly, "Do you want me to take you to Widow Liu's house and ask him to serve you food and drink?"
"Okay!" Lin Dehai immediately responded, "You asked Huaizi to come back, and I'll send me over now. I've been staying in this house for a long time. I feel disgusted when I see you."
Xingzi's face became pale, but Lin Yutong seriously thought about the possibility of this matter. The couple had long been together, and they had to make a bunch of things like this, making a noise, and they couldn't live this life. Although the current situation of divorce is not popular, the idea of taking a concubine has not withdrawn from the stage of history. But people like Lin's mother and Lin Dehai hate each other for not dying, but have to endure this kind of life under the same roof, which is really difficult for people to live under the same roof.
So after she returned home, she saw the Fourth Master and Lin Yuhuai talking in the main hall to the end, so she directly mentioned it to Lin Yuhuai, "I am old and I want to have a comfortable life. I ask my mother to serve Ahma. It's really not enough to fight. What's the situation with Widow Liu?"
Lin Yuhuai was shocked by Lin Yutong's thoughts and opened her mouth and didn't know how to say it.
But Lin Yutong said, "Who dares to marry her daughter to our family? Xingzi is a big girl every day. The girl's face is so precious. It's not a big deal to be scolded by Ama all day long. Yang Zi is also old, and when she is old, she needs to be looked down upon. Instead of being disgusted with each other like this, it's better to separate her."
Lin Yuhuai showed an expression of indescribable expression: "This Widow Liu is not a bad person. After my mother left, this Widow Liu's man was exhausted at the train station. She had no children, so she was driven out by her husband's family. The fifth aunt was a matchmaker and said that Ama. The marriage was agreed, but her mother came back. I stopped this matter. Over the years, Ama has not made any child, but she only earned money to Widow Liu and bought a small yard. Although it was remote and dilapidated, it was still a nest. As for Widow Liu, she has not found anyone in these years. She has washed and menddled clothes, and she can make up her stomach. No one expected that these two people were confused and had been living like this for so many years. Everyone around me knew that I felt like a mirror in my heart, but no one had picked it up."
Lin Yutong looked at Lin Yuhuai, "Since that's the case, why are you hesitating? Give Widow Liu three yuan a month. If she is happy, she will send the master over. If you have a headache and fever, we will take care of the doctor and take medicine. As long as she calms down the old man's service, she will be relieved and the old man will be at ease. My mother is relieved at home, and Xingzi and Yangzi are also straightened. Hello, I, everyone's good things, what can't be done?"
Lin Yuhuai rubbed her teeth and said, "Don't let her father go out?" This is unauthorized.
"It's not about throwing him out of the door, it's about this house." Lin Yutong was talking when footsteps came from outside, followed by Xingzi's shouting: "Brother, sister, hurry up and take a look, parents are fighting."
Lin Yuhuai's face changed, "These two are really not kings."
The Fourth Master watched Lin Yuhuai go out and urged Lin Yutong: "You go and see again. The sick and the wounded, you can fight and get into trouble." He is a son-in-law, so it's better not to see others make a fool of themselves.
Lin Yutong responded and chased after him. There were already a circle of people at the door of the house. The fifth aunt's family lived in the wing opposite the Lin family, and Uncle Lin San lived in the main house. They all surrounded him.
Lin’s mother’s head was messy, with blood marks on her face, and tears fell down: “Lin Dehai, you are a turtle boy, you know how to cheat the child. If you owe such debts, who are you worthy of? I haven’t taken a child home for many years. I have raised you for a few years, and Huaizi has raised you for years, and your conscience has been eaten by dogs. I turned around and sold the small yard of Widow Liu.”
"You dare!" Lin Dehai half-climbed on the edge of the kang and snapped the kang, "She is much better than you. That was bought by me for her. I am happy, you can't control it! Even if I sell my life for money, I will never let you touch her hair. If you don't believe me, I will try it. If you can't kill me, I will strangle you to death."
This embarrassing spirit!
Lin Yutong helped Lin's mother back. Seeing that her body was not seriously injured, she went to see Lin Dehai again, "This rib is broken, don't mess around."
Lin Yuhuai waved his hand to Lin Yutong: "You go back first, I will handle the family affairs." As he said that, he said to Xingzi, "Go to her side with your sister first. After prescribing, you can get medicine."
This is beating them, and I don't want their sisters to listen.
When he returned to the house, the Fourth Master had already gone to the study. Xingzi pulled Lin Yutong and whispered: "Sister, I don't want to go to middle school anymore. I want to do something."
"Doing things?" Lin Yutong pointed to the stool on the side and asked her to sit down, "What do you do?"
"Last time I ate the braised pork made by everyone, it tasted so good." Xingzi hurriedly looked up, "Sister, I will use your recipe for braised pork to share the money. After deducting the cost, how about half the price? I'll forget it. If the braised pork is ready, don't have a shop. You can sell it with just a basket and walk around the streets and alleys. Don't go to other places, just a piece nearby. No matter who you are here, you have to give your brother some face and dare not bully me. If you sell about twenty kilograms of braised pork in a day, you can earn two or three cents. In this month, you'll have more than ten yuan, which is enough to catch up with your brother's salary. With this money, your family will be relaxed."
This is really a good way.
"I'm just very tired." Lin Yutong looked at Xingzi with some pity, "I don't want any of your part either. Let's be here tonight, I'll teach you braised pork." They didn't want to rely on themselves to subsidize them.
As she was talking here, Lin Yutong had already written the prescription, "You go and get the medicine first, come here tonight." She stuffed her another handful of money.
After beating Xingzi out, the Fourth Master came out, "Today, Aizi told me that he met the Japanese in Liulichang."
It was not surprising to meet the Japanese. Lin Yutong asked the Fourth Master: "What is strange about it?"
"I'm afraid they're going for cultural relics." The Fourth Master said, stuffing the scrap draft paper into the stove and burning it, then said: "Huaizi said that the Japanese people came out of Dong Fan's shop today."
"Are you talking about Dong Fan and the Japanese?" Lin Yutong looked at the flames rising on the stove, and had a bad premonition in her heart, "No way?"
"It's hard to say!" The Fourth Master snorted, "This Dong Fan is a standard egoism. It depends on whether he knows that these people are Japanese now. Moreover, he has seen Huaizi, and Huaizi has made such a move in Liulichang again today. I'm afraid that someone in Liulichang will know his father-in-law, so it's not difficult to find Huaizi. As long as you find Huaizi, it's not difficult to find us. This person still has to keep a close eye on it."
Why is it so difficult to live a peaceful life?
In the middle of the afternoon, not only Xingzi came, but also Lin's mother came out of the house and followed her.
"Have you settled at home?" Lin Yutong asked the mother and daughter.
Xingzi glanced at Lin's mother and whispered: "Brother called a car and took his father to Aunt Liu. Two yuan a month, and our family can deliver rice, flour, oil and food and drinks to our family on a monthly basis."
Lin's mother curled her lips: "This woman has always been smart. She has figured out your brother's temper and knew that he would not be wronged. What is the right food for me? It's more and more, not less. The extra one is enough for her to chew. Isn't this two dollars in her own pocket? I can coax you to buy a house for her and coax you to buy some small accessories every now and then. After more than ten years, I have saved a lot. Now, relying on you, Ama, I have earned the money for retirement."
"Mom!" Xingzi looked at Lin Yutong's face carefully, and then said: "She is a woman with no children, no daughter, no husband, and if she doesn't even have such selfishness, she will become a fool. You are different from her, nothing like her."
Lin's mother stopped talking.
Lin Yutong smiled and pulled Xingzi to the kitchen and told her how to braise meat. Lin's mother was also interested in learning while watching, and asked Lin Yutong in a low voice: "Have you told my son-in-law about this?"
"What's the matter?" Lin Yutong was a little confused.
Lin's mother carefully looked at the study, "This prescription is something passed down by ancestors from generation to generation. You just hand it over to Xingzi, and your son-in-law can agree. You have already thought about it. Stay this prescription in your own home. With this skill, you can't stand being poor for generations."
If the old man can survive if his child is braised with pork, he and the Fourth Master should have hit him to death.
She waved her hand: "I can make the decision on this matter. It's okay!"
Only then did Xingzi realize how unreliable the request he made today was. She thought she would not want the elder sister to subsidize her, but who directly took away the golden doll heired from the family: "I don't know, sister."
Lin Yutong didn't care about this: "With this skill, you can straighten up any family you marry into in the future." No dowry is important.
At night, the yard was filled with the fragrance of braised meat. Lin Yutong took out some, cut it into pieces, and asked apricots to send some to the families who were good at it. Lin Yuhuai and Yangzi came back and came directly, and the rice was eaten by Lin Yutong.
At the dinner table, Lin Yuhuai also drank two glasses. Lin Yutong heard the two of them whispering about Dong Fan.
"He often sells some antiques, calligraphy and paintings to foreigners, not all of them are real. Most of them are made of old goods from wild kilns outside the city." Lin Yuhuai turned the wine glass in his hand, took another stack of money and put it in front of the Fourth Master, "This is the two hundred yuan, it's useless, you can put it away."
The Fourth Master smiled: "Have you sold the porcelain piece?"
Lin Yuhuai smiled: "Well! The porcelain pieces were sold together and they sold them for 250 yuan. They paid back the debts owed by the master and repaid dozens of dollars." As he said that, he gave all the remaining money to Xingzi, "This is the capital for you to do business."
Xingzi wiped a hand on the lapel of her clothes again, and then she held the money up and didn't know what to do.
Lin Yutong added soup to the Fourth Master, and then Lin Yuhuai lowered his voice and said to the Fourth Master: "I met Dong Fan today. This guy is very smart. I promise me that I don't know anything and say nothing."
"Is it trustworthy?" asked the Fourth Master.
"His wife has never given birth. A few years ago, he raised a female student, and now he has given birth to two sons for him, both of whom are in a house. He is not happy to offend anyone, because he is afraid of pushing people to anger, so he attacks the child." Lin Yuhuai snorted, "We can't do this, but he feels guilty. He told me that the woman who went to his store today has been asking about the people who are learning antique packaging in Liulichang."
"His he said?" The Fourth Master said confidently.
Lin Yuhuai nodded: "The woman bought three thousand oceans of fake things in his store, and he said everything he poured beans into the bamboo tube."
The Fourth Master frowned: "This person is really unbelievable. You will take the time to see him tomorrow and tell him that this may be his further opportunity. As long as you report the Japanese's idea of attacking cultural relics to the master he wants to flatter, he will be a great achievement. It is more effective than giving away any treasure."
Lin Yuhuai suddenly realized: "This guy is still an official fan. If that's the case, it's easy to deal with. I kept it and told him to shut up and dare not say a word."
With vigilance, nothing happened. Then I heard that the bandits along the railway had touched the real guys. Needless to say, this is a way to clear obstacles for cultural relics to travel south.
This New Year is coming in such an atmosphere.
For rich families, there are all kinds of concerns about the New Year. For poor people, it is really difficult for them to celebrate the New Year.
The braised pork business of apricots was particularly prosperous before the New Year. Some people who eat good foods have to book in advance. The Lin family’s yard tastes braised pork every day. For many days, the income of a day is around one yuan. Some people who can’t afford meat can come with one or two cents, buy a can of marinade, and go back to use this juice and stew a pot of cabbage and potatoes. It’s also very fragrant. Even the Lin family members come here too. Lin Yuhuai don’t have any money, so they give it better every day. In fact, braised pork has to be made with an old soup base. The older the soup base, the better the taste. Now these are not paid attention to.
