Chapter 309: Hold on
Chapter 309: Hold on
When Zhang Yili returned to the house with the child, Lian Yun had already returned from taking Zhang Lianyu to take a bath and was wiping Zhang Lianyu's hair. When he saw him come back, he looked at the pile of bags on the table and asked.
"Li'er, did your mother have someone bring back these bags?"
"Yes, Mom asked Lin Fen to bring it back."
"Hey? Why is it Sister Fen who brought it here today? Did she and Sister Yin switch routes?"
He listened to his father's series of questions, carried Tiantian to the small wooden bed and put him in, bent down and pulled out the thumb that Tiantian was holding in his mouth and replied.
"The line was not changed. Lin Fen went to the city with his brothers and sisters in the afternoon."
"That's a pity. I quite like Sister Fen."
Zhang Yili did not respond to his words. Instead, Zhang Lianyu kept muttering, "Is Dad all right? I want to go see if Mom bought a spinning top for Xiaoyu."
Lian Yun looked at his impatience and said helplessly, "You asked your mother to buy this thing again? Didn't Dad tell you that this is a toy for girls? You are almost eight years old, why are you still acting like a monkey?"
Zhang Lianyu was not embarrassed by what he said, but answered with confidence.
"Why can't we play? Last time, our brothers and sisters played with us and praised Xiaoyu for being such a great player."
"So how was school today? Did you learn piano or painting?"
"The teacher praised me today, saying that my handwriting is beautiful and I have learned to play the piano and draw. The teacher also praised Brother Tangshan for his talent in playing the piano."
Lian Yun saw that he had almost finished rubbing his hair, so he picked up the comb and combed his hair.
"What about you? How do you play?"
Zhang Lianyu immediately lost his temper, lowered his head, played with his fingers and whispered, "Not good."
In fact, except Tangshan, no one else played the piano well. The teacher also said that it was normal and it would be like this when one first started learning.
But he sets some high standards for himself, so he felt a little depressed when this matter was mentioned.
Zhang Yili, who had been paying attention to this side, quickly comforted her: "Xiaoyu, it's okay. You just started learning today. If you study for a few more days, I believe you will be able to play well."
After a while, Zhang Lianyu hummed listlessly, and Lianyun quickly changed the subject when he saw this.
"Okay, okay, you want to play with a spinning top? Why don't you go see if your mom bought it for you?"
When Zhang Lianyu heard that his father had no objection to him playing with the spinning top, he became happy again. After his hair was combed, he could not wait to run to the table, picked up the nearest small bag and opened it. After seeing what was inside, his eyes lit up and he turned to the two people in the room and said in surprise.
"Dad, Mom bought a lot of things, are they all for Xiaoyu?"
Lian Yun stood up curiously and walked over after hearing what he said. Seeing that the room was full of children's toys, he picked up the rattle and shook it.
"Didn't you just buy a rattle and a stuffed tiger last time? Why are you buying them again?"
Zhang Lianyu immediately said, "Mom bought it for Tiantian last time, so this time it must be for Xiaoyu." After saying that, he happily picked up a cloth tiger.
Zhang Yili heard their conversation and came over. When he saw the opened package, he remembered that Lin Fen said that the package was for him, and he looked puzzled.
Did I give it to the wrong person?
Lianyun opened the other three bundles. Most of the contents were new clothes for the four of them. There was also a bundle containing Zhang Lianyu's things, including a spinning top, four study treasures and a flute.
It seems that the bag of toys is really for Tiantian.
When Zhang Lianyu saw the flute, he immediately put down the cloth tiger, and even ignored the spinning top he had been thinking about, and picked up the flute and couldn't let it go.
He has his own instrument now.
Lin Fen returned to her accommodation feeling excited but nervous. She didn't dare to give gifts openly, so she would mix some of her gifts in with the things she brought back for Zhang Tong every time.
Even when giving gifts, she only dared to give money every day. Only in this way would she not arouse suspicion. Gradually, she developed a habit of buying one for children whenever she saw a toy on the street.
After the routes were divided, she could no longer deliver these toys.
This time I finally have the chance to give it all away at once. Should it be okay?
She could only comfort herself, went back to her room, found some clean clothes, picked up the bucket and went to take a shower.
When she came back, packed her things and lay down on the bed, she seemed to smell the faint scent of soapberry again.
"Huan Yin?"
"What's wrong, Sister Fen?"
Lin Huanyin was about to fall asleep, but when she heard her cry, she thought something had happened. She was startled and opened her eyes, turning her head to look at the bed opposite. Unfortunately, it was pitch black and she could only see through the moonlight that the person who made the sound was lying face up.
After a long time, just when Lin Huanyin thought she was hallucinating, Lin Fen spoke again.
"How are you and Yang Yan?"
She didn't expect Lin Fen to gossip about this, and spoke hesitantly.
"It's still the same, eh."
After she sighed, she couldn't help but complain. After all, she had wanted to find someone to talk to before, but the only person she could talk to wasn't interested in their affairs.
"My whole family disagrees with me marrying Ah Yan, saying that he is of low status and is a slave. I don't understand. We are just ordinary people, but they make us sound superior. Besides, it's not impossible to redeem him, but my mother said that I can marry him, but I can only be his mistress."
Lin Fen didn't say anything, just listened silently.
"But I really like Ah Yan, how could I let him be my mistress?"
Lin Fen spoke up, "So what are you going to do?"
"Well, just hang in there. Anyway, I won't marry anyone else except Ayan, and Ayan will have to wait more than two years to redeem himself. He also won't let me pay to redeem him, so after finishing his work, he goes to do other farm work, saying that he wants to save the redemption money as soon as possible so that he can buy a house."
"house?"
"Yes, he wants to buy a townhouse and have his own home, but he won't let me pay. I can't afford a courtyard house either. I also plan to buy a townhouse and put a door in the middle, so that Ah Yan and I can have a bigger house."
"That's very good."
"Yes, when we get married, Sister Fen must come and show us her respect."
"it is good."
After Lin Huanyin finished complaining, she felt much better and fell asleep soon after.
Lin Fen on the bed opposite couldn't fall asleep for a long time. When did he fall in love with Zhang Yili?
It seemed that since the first official contact, her eyes could not help but follow him. He was really so gentle.
After she realized her feelings, she wanted to marry him.
Although she didn't know how her family would react if they found out, she couldn't change her decision.
She was just afraid that if he knew her feelings, what if he didn't accept it and hated her?
After all, he had only been divorced for less than half a year, and many people had proposed to him during that time, but he rejected them all, and many bad rumors had also spread outside.
If she asked him to marry her again, she would probably be rejected. He might even think that she wanted to marry him just like everyone else and start to hate her.
Hey.
Hold on.
