"Alright, let's not talk anymore. Hurry up and eat.”Mrs. Qian said as she picked up her chopsticks and started eating. Those starving fellows hurriedly followed suit.
After dinner, Chui Enterprise called Lin Siyan back to the Lins. The mother and daughter were whispering at home. They were worried about the couple's life and whether they were harmonious with Li **.
Seeing that Lin Siyan's answer did not seem to be fake, and that her daughter's complexion was much better than before she got married, and more importantly, there was no resentment between her brows, she felt much better. What she felt the most guilty about was listening to her eldest son and marrying her daughter to a rich but unknown hunter in the village.
Lin Siyan didn't have much affection for the Chui Corporation, or rather, she didn't have much affection for the entire Lin family. Perhaps it was because she was a person with little kinship in her previous life, so she didn't feel anything other than being unaccustomed to having so many relatives in this life. As for the guilt of the Cui Corporation, she did not care. After all, the original owner's memories could no longer control her emotions.
However, it was impossible for her to treat Chui Corporation as her biological mother. At least, her mother would not trade her daughter's happiness for her son's happiness.
After talking to Cui Shi for a while, he saw Lin Sixing walking in drunk with the help of Li Xiaobo and Lin Yu.
Seeing this, Mrs. Cui quickly went forward to help Lin Sixing. After letting Lin Sixing sleep, she explained to Lin Siyan," Your brother might have been too happy, so he drank a few more glasses."”
Lin Siyan didn't comment. Seeing that Lin Yu's face was also red, it seemed that he had drunk a lot. On the contrary, Li Xiaobo's face was as usual, as if he wasn't drunk at all. She couldn't help but frown slightly." Why didn't you persuade my father?"”
"No need to persuade me, I'm not drunk!" Lin Yu said in a rough voice," Your brother is getting married on the tenth of next month. When the time comes, you and the b * stard will come over to help.”
"I understand. Rest early.”As she spoke, Lin Siyan took out the two catties of jujube cakes and three taels of sugar she had bought from her basket and handed them to Cui Shi." This is a little token of our appreciation."”
Cui Shi looked a little flattered, as if she truly felt that Lin Siyan had let bygones be bygones.
"I've already bought it as a homecoming gift. Why waste money on these things?”Lin Yu said disapprovingly and then stared at Chui Enterprise." You have the nerve to take it? You've caused your daughter so much trouble and you still have the nerve to take her things. Why are you so black-hearted as a mother?!”
Cui Shi looked at the thing in Lin Siyan's hand. She didn't know whether to accept it or not. He stood awkwardly on the spot, his expression extremely unnatural.
"Mother, it's getting late. I'll put the things on the table for you.”Lin Siyan said as she put the things in her hands on the table. She turned around and saw Li Xiaobo standing at the door. She knew that he had heard what she had just said.
" Siyan, I... I..." Seeing that she was about to leave, Madam Cui hurriedly stood up and wanted to say something.
Lin Siyan interrupted Cui Shi and said," Father is drunk. You should help him rest first. When Brother gets married, we will come."”
With that, she walked out of the door and headed towards the bamboo house. Seeing her leave, Li Xiaobo hurriedly entered the house and greeted Cui Shi before chasing after her.
Madam Cui looked at the dark door and then at Lin Yu, who was dozing off on the chair. Her heart sank. She did not expect that her daughter would not blame her, but her husband, who did not like to talk at home, would be so angry with her.
On the way back, Lin Siyan and Li Xiaobo didn't say a word. Although she was very concerned about whether her father's drunken words had hurt Li Xiaobo, it was a fact that she didn't want to marry him in the first place.
"Back then, it was your mother who asked someone to inquire about my situation. After knowing that I wanted to marry a wife, she told me that as long as she could afford the betrothal gift of fifty taels, she would not care about any conditions and marry you to me.”
A deep voice suddenly sounded in the quiet night, but it didn't scare Lin Siyan. She just didn't expect Li Xiaobo to suddenly explain, so she didn't know how to continue.
"Although I don't know why your family urgently needs these fifty taels, I know that you don't like me, so it's reasonable that you chose to run away from the marriage. Today, the elders of your Lin family treat me as a treasure bowl. They secretly hope that I will take out some money to show respect to them.”As he spoke, Li Xiaobo's deep voice slowly turned cold." Although I'm a hunter, your Lin family isn't a scholarly family. Since you've married me, I hope you'll be a good wife. As for divorce, it's impossible."”
On the day of their wedding, Li Xiaobo had said that after marrying her, their family had no more money. Lin Siyan had been waiting for Li Xiaobo to speak his truth, but when she heard it, she didn't know how to react.
Jiangyuan Village was not big, with a total of three to four hundred people. Any small matter, such as the private affairs of a couple, would spread throughout the village in a few days. Moreover, Lin Siyan had escaped to her uncle's house because Lin Sixing had caught her with great fanfare. There were probably not many people who didn't know that she had escaped from the marriage.
After they got married, Li Xiaobo didn't mention anything, as if those things didn't exist. However, Lin Siyan knew that just because she was unwilling to mention it didn't mean that it didn't exist. She didn't think that men would accept a wife who ran away from marriage. Even modern men wouldn't be nice to such a wife, let alone an ancient man who had spent all his savings on a wife.
The more Li Xiaobo acted like he didn't care, the more uneasy she felt. If it was really like what he said on the night of his wedding, that they would not leave each other until they grew old together, then at least the two of them could not hide anything from each other. In her previous life, she had always comforted herself that her boyfriend would take the initiative to tell her sooner or later. In the end, she died because of her wishful thinking, so much so that she did not even know when he would start looking for a horse.
Although she didn't dare to expect to meet someone who loved each other and grow old together in this life, at least the person beside her didn't need her to constantly guess the other party's thoughts. She didn't want to try that kind of life.
"Since I'm already your wife, I'll be a member of your Li family in this life and a ghost of your Li family in death.”Lin Siyan used what she thought was the most touching words, but Li Xiaobo's unmoved look made her feel a little uncertain." As for my relatives, it's their business how they see us. Even if they see you as a money tree, they have to be able to shake you down. If they don't have the ability and only want to take advantage of you, even if they're relatives, they don't have to be nice to them."”
Li Xiaobo looked at her in surprise." Aren't you worried that your relatives will become enemies with you?”
