Chapter 101: Another Rogue

When he walked out of Shangzheng Village and followed the small village roads by Lijia Village, Zheng Lin did not go directly to Taoyuan Town, but instead turned to the Sang Family.

If you really want to say that you can't bear to leave anyone this time, then there will be Mulberry leaves.

The two of them expressed their feelings yesterday. If there were no accidents, Zheng Lin would often go to the Sang family to show their favor and try to make the marriage as soon as possible. This sudden task disrupted all his plan. All he could do was to seize the last time and look at her before leaving.

The Sang family had already gotten up. The adults found the farm tools to use for autumn seeds, the hoes repaired, and the plow tips replaced. The children were not idle either. Yu's Liu's guidance used a winnowing basket and other items to screen the wheat, sifting out the shriveled wheat to feed pigs and chickens, leaving only the full and easy-to-grow wheat seeds.

Sang Ye and Mu were preparing breakfast in the kitchen, so that their families would go to work later when they were full.

The gate of the courtyard was open. After Zheng Lin knocked on the door and attracted the attention of the Sang family, he walked straight in and greeted the people in the courtyard.

Seeing that Zheng Lin came early in the morning and was carrying a bag on his back, the Sang family guessed that he was going out.

Sang Shu first asked, "Brother Zheng, are you going out?"

"Well, I have to go to the capital city for something." Zheng Lin did not hide it and omitted the specific things he had to do when he went to the capital city.

"Fucheng? The Fucheng is very far away. The farthest place I have been to is the county town. It takes several hours to walk!"

Mangshu only knew that he was under Yunlai County, and Yunlai County was under Yunzhou Prefecture, but he had never been to any place except the county town. Therefore, he didn't know where the city was, and he didn't know how far it was from Lijia Village.

Seeing that the future brother-in-law was curious, Zheng Lin explained in detail: "The city is located in the southeast of Lijia Village. From here to Taoyuan Town, first take a carriage to Yunfeng County next door, then take a waterway for six days to get ashore, and then take a carriage to Yunzhou Prefecture in one day."

After hearing this, Mangshu was stunned: "My good dear, it's too far. I'll have to walk on the road for six or seven days!"

Zheng Lin nodded. It was indeed far away for ordinary people, but for those who could ride horses, it only took two days. If there was a good horse on the way and if you could change it overnight, you would arrive one day and one night.

Sang Lin also came up with a little uncomfortable face: "Brother Zheng, have you been to Fucheng before? Is Fucheng very lively?"

Zheng Lin pretended not to see it, but his attitude became closer: "I passed by several times before, and the city was about as big as the ** Yunlai County. There were many shops such as restaurants and teahouses, and there were also night markets very lively at night, but not every street can be placed in a night market. You must go to the place specified by the government office."

Now not only the two brothers, Mangshu and Sanglin, were attracted by the prosperity of the city, but also Sang Hushi Yu and others were attracted. They had never traveled far away and had no idea what the city outside Yunlai County looked like.

Now, when Zheng Lin described the prosperity of the prefecture, the adults were fine, while the children showed their yearning.

Xiao Jiang couldn't help but say to his younger brothers, "When I grow up, I must go to the city to have a look."

Xiaoshan suddenly climbed over his brother's arm and said with a favor: "Brother, please take Xiaoshan there too, Xiaoshan wants to go and see it."

Xiao Jiang looked at his younger brother with disgust: "I won't take you there. Even if I have to take you, I will bring you the obedient and not noisy Brother Huan."

Xiaoshan curled his lips, and his little face collapsed instantly. He looked at his elder brother, then at Brother Huan who was smiling and laughing at the corners of his eyes, showing that he was about to cry or not, looking very pitiful.

At this time, Sang Ye and Mu, who heard Zheng Lin's voice, also walked out. Knowing that Zheng Lin was going to the capital city, it would take almost a month to come back, he began to worry.

Sang Ye was worried that Zheng Lin would encounter a big problem, so she was so anxious to leave. Mu was worried that Zheng Lin would not come back in a month, and that there would be variables in this marriage she was optimistic about.

Even though the mother and daughter had many worries in their hearts, it was difficult to say it in front of other ignorant people at home.

But Sang Ye couldn't help it and looked at Zheng Lin and asked, "Have you used Chaoshi? If not, stay and use it before leaving."

Zheng Lin originally wanted to say that he would go to the town to eat, but he couldn't bear to spend the last time before leaving, so

He shook his head: "It's early to go out, and I haven't had time to eat."

Before Sang Ye could say anything, Mu laughed: "Come on, come on, go and sit down in the house. The food will be ready soon and you will be able to eat it soon."

In Mu's opinion, this future son-in-law is not going to make breakfast for him when he is away. Now he says he doesn't eat, but he just can't bear to part with his daughter. She, the mother-in-law, naturally, has to push her to make her two children hurry up and take the time and go everywhere.

Since yesterday afternoon, Zheng Lin has been treating himself as the Sang family's son-in-law. Now he is invited by his future mother-in-law. He is not polite and immediately smiled and said, "Thank you, aunt! Alin likes the food he cooks, and he will come to try it when he comes back from the capital city."

Seeing Zheng Lin secretly looking at his daughter when he was talking, Mu couldn't help but feel a little funny. This boy knew that most of the food at home was cooked by his daughter, so he couldn't praise his daughter directly at this moment, but he would push the credit on her and coax the mother and daughter.

"Okay, okay, go to the house and sit in the house. When you come back from the capital, my aunt will definitely make a big table of good food to entertain you!" Mu urged her future son-in-law, then turned her head and suddenly said to her daughter: "You will go to the town to do business later, so that A Lin will take you with you, so that my mother can rest assured."

Going to the town to do business? Sang Ye blinked and looked at her mother in confusion. When did she say she wanted to do business in the town?

Zheng Lin took the conversation without waiting for Sang Ye to ask, "Don't worry, Aunt, A Lin must protect Xiao Ye's sister."

Her eyes turned back and forth between the two people singing and drinking, and Sang Ye suddenly realized that her mother was providing them with the opportunity to get along alone!

However, did my mother know something, but she still didn't give up, and she was determined to find an opportunity to match her and Brother Zheng to think of this excuse?

Sang Ye couldn't figure it out, nor did he want to think about it. It would always be good to have such an opportunity to get along alone, right?

Just as Sang Ye was thinking about whether to pretend to refuse, he heard his second brother ask inappropriately: "Ye'er, what are you doing in the town? Why don't you know?" He had to accompany the girl when she went to the town before, but he had never heard of it this time?

Sang Ye was stopped and felt a little embarrassed. But Mu was afraid that his second son would ruin her business, so he glared at his second son fiercely: "What are you doing? Can you still report everything to you?"

Sang Lin felt very wronged when he was scolded for no reason. He was about to defend himself when he was caught by Liu, who knew about it: "It's natural for mother to do this. Isn't it stupid for you to interrupt randomly?"

Seeing that her husband still looked like he was not understanding, Liu was worried that he would really ruin his mother-in-law's plan, so he hurriedly came to his ear and said a few words.

After hearing this, Sang Lin showed a look on his face and sighed in his heart that Jiang is still old. He can really think of any tricks when he gets married for his sister!

However, isn’t Ye’er unwilling to do so? Why didn’t she object this time?

Not to mention how Sang Lin was wondering, Sang Laoshi and others also showed a mysterious look on their faces. They looked at Zheng Lin with great enthusiasm, as if this time they took their daughter and sister to the town, and this marriage seemed to have hope.

The Sang family’s morning meal is very simple. It is filled with a pot of fragrant white porridge made of rice, soft steamed buns made of cornmeal and wheat flour, and a plate of pickled pickles. Each of the four children can also get a boiled egg.

Such morning food is considered good in the entire Lijia Village. This is because the remaining grain was not sold after the autumn harvest, so the family can eat it like this. Otherwise, the white rice porridge will turn into coarse grain porridge with throat-scraping, and the steamed buns are even harder than dried mud.

After eating at the Sang family for more than a month, Zheng Lin knew that the Sang family was living a good life and knew that most of the contributions of the women she liked were. While feeling proud, she also felt a deep sense of oppression.

Even if he made the first contribution in this mission and became an ordinary farmer smoothly, he could not really dig food in the ground with his back to the sky, otherwise he would not even be able to raise his wife.

Thinking of the previous few trips to the south, he just rushes the goods here to the other side, and makes a huge difference in the middle, he thinks this is a good way.

Although it is hard to go back and forth and the road is dangerous, it is worth it to be able to live a life.

When I saved enough savings to buy land or buy a few shops in the city, my life will definitely be less than a little different in the future.

After breakfast, Zheng Lin went to Taoyuan Town with Sang Ye amid the earnest instructions of the Sang family. Of course, there was also a large-scale light bulb Manglin accompanying him.

Originally, Sang Lin was not willing to be upset, but Mu felt that it was not appropriate for the lonely man and widow to go to the town and were seen by an acquaintance, so he beat Sang Lin again. Even if he met him, no one would say anything.

Zheng Lin was depressed, but he knew that doing so was for the sake of mulberry leaves, so he agreed.

Fortunately, after leaving the territory of Lijia Village, Sang Lin fell behind with tactfulness and gave up space for his sister to communicate with Zheng Lin, who was most likely to become his brother-in-law. He hoped that his sister could accept Zheng Lin's affection.

Sang Ye turned his head and looked behind him. Knowing that his second brother couldn't hear what she said, he asked Zheng Lin: "I didn't hear you were going to the capital yesterday. You were in a hurry to leave in just one night. Is there anything big of a deal?"

Zheng Lin didn't want to lie, but his identity itself was a secret, and the task he took on could not be exposed, so he said directly: "It's not a big deal. If you go to the capital city smoothly, you will be back soon. I can tell you whatever you want to know."

"Okay, tell me when you want to say it!" Sang Ye was very tactful and did not ask. After all, she also had many secrets that she could not tell. She could understand Zheng Lin's difficulties, but she was a little curious: "But you have to tell me honestly, is there any danger in this trip going out?"

Zheng Lin, who was originally worried that the woman would be angry, suddenly felt warm and said lightly: "No, this time I just helped others find two people, and there will be no danger."

There is indeed no danger if you only look for someone. Sang Ye felt relieved. She looked at Zheng Lin with a very serious expression on her face: "I heard that you often travel far away. The total time you stay at home for a year is less than two months. Although I don't know what you are doing outside, I hope that from now on you will put your safety first, don't forget that there is someone who is worried about you all the time."

At first she realized that men were not simple, not like simple farmers. Later, after gradually deepening their understanding, she became more and more sure of this conjecture.

Before she confirmed her feelings, she didn't care what the man was doing, but now it was different. She would be nervous about this man, worried about this man, and would start thinking about this man before the man left, hoping that he would come back as soon as possible.

The man with a heartfelt heart would soften after hearing Sang Ye's confession, not to mention Zheng Lin. Seeing that there was no fourth person around, he held Sang Ye's shoulder tightly, stared at her eyes and said solemnly: "I look forward to getting engaged to you, giving you a grand wedding, and want to have a few more cute children with you. Before that, I will take good care of myself and never let myself have something to do."

It was fine when I heard the previous words, but when I heard the words "Give a few cute children", Mang Ye couldn't hold back, her cheeks turned red with a visible degree of naked eyes, and she clenched her fists in shame and hit Zheng Lin's chest: "I just like nonsense, who cares about getting married and having children with you?"

The punch hit Zheng Lin, as if it was tickling. Zheng Lin gently held the woman's right hand that was hit on the chest, and smiled gently: "I don't care!"

Sang Ye was flirted with a man so much that he had no temper. He wanted to break away from the man's big hand but failed to break away, so he let him go, but he kept saying it: "When I first met you, I thought you were a gentleman in the morning. Now I didn't think about it when I talked too much, wasn't this what I said?"

Zheng Lin felt very unfair and said helplessly: "Only in front of you can I have endless things to say, and I won't even look at other women."

Mang Ye poked the man's chest and said threateningly: "You're the best thing you said is the truth, otherwise."

"Otherwise," Sang Ye did not continue to say anything afterwards, but her expression told Zheng Lin that once he was lying, the consequences would be serious.

Zheng Lin was in a state of mind. After hearing the woman's words, he did not rush to show his loyalty. He just pressed the woman's hand on his chest and said, "As long as you are willing to marry me, I will let you see my feelings for you in the next few decades."

Caught off guard and got flirted again, Mang Ye felt like he was touched

The hand on the man's chest was so hot that he felt sweet that he couldn't speak harshly.

Sang Lin, who was following behind, could not hear the conversation between the two, but his eyes could clearly see what the two were doing.

Seeing Zheng Lin taking the initiative to shake her sister's hand, the sister did not break free. She was happy and felt that Zheng Lin was taking advantage of her sister. She endured it and did not rush forward and pulled them away.

Perhaps Sang Lin's gaze was too strong, Sang Ye realized that his second brother was still following behind, and immediately broke free from Zheng Lin's hand and said, "Let's be careful, so the second brother has changed your mind. Don't let him have bad thoughts on you again."

When Zheng Lin heard this, he realized that his actions had just happened, and couldn't help but turn his head to see the future brother-in-law's face.

He practiced martial arts for many years and had a good inner breath. His eyesight was much better than that of ordinary people. He easily saw Sang Lin's stern face, looking like he was eager to rush up to beat someone, and he was a little amused and crying for a moment.

Taking a deep breath, Zheng Lin became more determined to get married as soon as possible, and it would be best to get married at the end of the year. So, in Sang Lin's murderous gaze, he grabbed Sang Ye's hand again: "In a month, I will definitely come back to propose marriage. At that time, no matter whether you have thought it through or not, I hope you can agree that day in person."

Sang Ye did not answer directly. She held the man's hand and said softly: "You must come back in time, don't let me wait for a long time."

Zheng Lin couldn't hear the meaning of the woman's words, and wanted to turn around in circles to express his inner joy. He was labeled with an unstable hat by his brother-in-law behind him. He resisted the urge to turn around and nodded heavily: "Wait, I will definitely come back in a month."

No matter how far the road is, there are times when it reaches its end.

Standing at the entrance of Taoyuan Town and watching the man's back gradually fading away, Mangye couldn't help it, and a layer of dampness surged in his eyes.

At this moment, a malicious voice came to Sang Ye's ears: "Oh, which little lady is this? I cry so hard that my brother feels heartbroken!"
