The two of them followed the route they had inquired about and found that the house was not small but did not fit the identity of the other party as described by Li Cheng. The door was locked from the outside and could not be seen from the inside. Zhao took Lin Xue to the house next door.

There was only an old lady basking in the sun in the yard.

"Auntie, do you know where the person next door is? I need to see her for something." Ms. Zhao asked.

"Who are you?" The old lady glanced suspiciously.

"Auntie, we are here to see relatives. The address she gave us is this, but the house is locked and no one seems to be there. Do you know where we are going?" Ms. Zhao made up a reason.

"Then you may have found the wrong place. There is no one living next door and it has always been empty." The old lady moved, "But it seemed that someone came in yesterday. Maybe someone wants to rent a house!"

"Thank you, aunt. We must have found the wrong place. I will leave now without disturbing you." Mrs. Zhao said goodbye and said, "Brother and sister, what do you think is going on? Li Cheng said that he would marry someone from this family even though no one lives there.

girl."

Lin Xue thought for a while, "If we are looking for the right place, then Li Cheng is lying. Didn't the aunt say that there was some movement yesterday? It happened to be the day when the sister-in-law proposed to marry." Lin Xue had an idea, "Isn't this house rented out?

Let’s go find the owner of this house. He must know what happened yesterday.”

Mrs. Zhao nodded and went back to ask the old lady for the address of the owner of the house. After finding the person, Lin Xue said, "Brother, no one has rented your house."

"Yes, someone rented it the day before yesterday. But that person was surprised that he only rented it for two days and moved out last night." The middle-aged man said.

"Brother, you are renting it for two days," Lin Xue asked, "Do you know what that person's name is? She is the only one renting the house."

"They gave me a month's rent, and I only agreed to stay for two days." The middle-aged man thought for a while, "We came together. The girl's name is Ping'er, and the boy's name is Li Cheng."

"Li Cheng." Ms. Zhao exclaimed, "Brother, you remember correctly, my name is really Li Cheng."

The middle-aged man was a little unhappy and said, "I heard the woman's name correctly. I said what on earth do you two want to do? You said you wanted to rent a house but you kept asking about those two people. How come you know each other?"

"Brother," Ms. Zhao slapped her thigh, "to tell you the truth, that man is my brother because my mother did not agree with their marriage. He ran away a few days ago and has not been found. Today I heard someone said that he was in your room.

It had appeared in there before, so we came looking for it.”

"So that's it." The man relaxed and said, "You guys are late. They moved away last night, but they should still be in town. I heard from the woman that some relatives here seem to be seeking refuge. You guys

If you ask around more, you should be able to find it."

"Okay, please, brother, let's go look elsewhere." Knowing the truth of the matter, Lin Xue secretly thought that Li Cheng was really bold enough to deceive the entire family.

"This is really eye-opening to me. We have a talented person in the Li family." Mrs. Zhao mocked, "No one will mention this matter of my brother and sister when he returns home. We don't care about the other matters if he marries Li Cheng."

Lin Xue had this intention. Anyway, even if something happened after the family was separated, it would have nothing to do with them. "Second sister-in-law, let's go shopping. I've forgotten about this."

Mrs. Zhao is very satisfied with Lin Xue's knowledge. This sister-in-law's brain has been awakened recently, and she is much smarter than before. Getting married is a very complicated matter. There are so many things to buy, such as wedding ceremonies, 囍 characters, red lanterns, candles, etc.

Wait, I also bought a piece of red cloth to make clothes and quilts for Li Cheng. I originally wanted to order wedding cakes, but Wang decided to make them herself in order to save money.

After buying all the things, Lin Xue found that she couldn't carry them at all, so she hired a carriage to take the two of them back. In the car, Mrs. Zhao looked at the things she bought and sighed. "The old man is really partial. We had these when we got married.

Li Cheng is the only one who has the decency to let the old man take care of things, but our children will not have such a good life in the future."

Lin Xue smiled, what does this mean? Her child will definitely be ten or twenty times better than this in the future, "Second sister-in-law, don't be discouraged. We can do great things for our child if we work hard."

Ms. Zhao thought for a moment and shook her head, "How much money would it cost to have all three of my sons take care of themselves? It's impossible that I will still need the help of the old man."

"Second sister-in-law, haven't you ever thought about working hard yourself?" Lin Xue frowned, everyone was staring at the old man, but can they divide the money with so little?

"No matter how hard we work, our family only has so little land. If we don't divide the family, we have to hand over all the money. Even if the family is divided, we can't make much in a year, so we can barely make ends meet. We can't save any money at all." Mrs. Zhao spread her hands, "But

That piece of red fruit is worth a lot of money, so we must fight for more when we divide the family."

Lin Xue found that these people had the same thinking. They only stared at the few things at home and never thought about going out to create a new sky. Even Li Qi was like this. He only knew that the amount of harvest depends on God's face.

I never thought about relying on human power to change all this.

"Brothers and sisters, let's get off the bus." The two of them went back and forth twice to finish moving all the things. Because Lin Xue hadn't moved out yet, these things could only be temporarily placed in the old man's room, and they would be decorated after the house was vacated.

"Third wife, these things were bought in the town." the old man asked.

"Third Aunt, you've gone to town." Li Cheng's expression was a little flustered, "Didn't you say you weren't allowed to go? Why would you go so far away from the village?"

"There are not all the goods in the village. It happened that my second sister-in-law had to go to town to do some errands, so we went together." Lin Xue found a stool and sat down. She was very tired. "Dad, we have almost bought the things. Mom said that we can make the wedding cake by ourselves, so

I didn’t order it, and the remaining one tael of silver is here.” Lin Xue took out the silver and handed it to Wang, and also reported the prices of the items to avoid being accused of hiding the money.

"I really don't know how to save. Ten taels of silver were gone in the morning." Mrs. Wang muttered in a low voice. No one but the old man dared to say anything about Li Cheng, so she could only complain secretly.

"Third Aunt, you didn't encounter anything when you went to town. Did you go to East Street?" Li Cheng asked cautiously.

"No!" Lin Xue shook her head, "I came back after buying something. I didn't go over to East Street because there was nothing I needed to buy."

"Thank you, third aunt, for running around for me. My nephew will definitely help you in the future." Li Cheng patted his chest and felt relieved.

"That's right." Lin Xuecai didn't expect Li Cheng to repay her. It was too difficult. "Cheng'er, don't worry about the wedding. You have to read the book well. Don't be distracted."

"You're right. Cheng'er, your third aunt told me to remember that it's important to study." The old man warned, "Don't worry about us about getting married. Just review your homework."

"I understand, Grandpa." Li Cheng responded.
