Chapter 38 Going Home

Lu Zhanbei didn't know about Lin Xiaowan's biological parents. At this time, he heard Lin Xiaowan say this in this way. He really felt sorry for Lin Xiaowan. A child who was abandoned by his family secretly watched his biological parents and family happily together and refused to recognize her. This is how much pain he has to bear.

He couldn't help it and reached out to hold Lin Xiaowan's hand. There was no other meaning here, but he just wanted to give him warmth: "Xiaowan, if you have me in the future, I will be with you in everything."

Lin Xiaowan was stunned for a moment. Such words made him feel very warm, but he said that he would give Lu Zhanbei a new beginning and that he should not trap his life like this.

When she didn't know what to say, the radio broadcast said that the bus to Linxi Village would leave ten minutes later, and now it is starting to line up to get on the bus.

Lin Xiaowan let go of Lu Zhanbei's hand: "Let's get in the car quickly, don't be too late."

Lu Zhanbei really didn't have too many thoughts just now, so he naturally responded, took the things, entered the queue with Lin Xiaowan, and got on the bus together.

After getting in the car, the two ignored Zhang Yanyan and sat a little further in front.

Zhang Yanyan's father was the village party secretary and had never been angry, so she was also angry at this time and sat far away from them.

The train started soon, and Lin Xiaowan's heartbeats faster. The closer he gets to home, the more he feels panicked.

Along the way, Lin Xiaowan kept looking out the car window. It was already autumn. The yellow rice fields swayed lightly in the wind, the sorghum ears were full of sunshine, and the cornfields were also full of harvest.

Many families passing by were taking corn warehouses. The old ox carts on the road were moving forward swayingly, and the handlebars held a whip in their hands without any effort to drive them away. The old ox seemed to recognize the way forward.

Occasionally, children were running around the road, and the autumn wind was circling with yellow leaves and falling on them, and the sunlight shone on their faces that were dark and red by the sun, bringing vitality.

Lu Zhanbei did not disturb Lin Xiaowan because she knew that she had to bear more than she thought of. She needed time and space to calm down and accept her family better.

Lin Xiaowan looked at the increasingly familiar scenery and looked at Linxi Village, which appeared in her sight from afar. She clenched her fists and gritted her teeth, but she still felt a little chilled. The more she wanted to face it, she didn't know how to face it.

She didn't dare to turn around and kept looking out the car window, making her mood as calm as possible.

However, when the car stopped in front of the supply and marketing cooperative in the village, Lin Xiaowan's legs became weak and could not stand up. The more prepared he was, the more nervous he was.

Lu Zhanbei knew Lin Xiaowan's heart struggle, but he didn't want to put pressure on her, so he smiled and said, "You'll have your legs numb when you're in the car. You can stand and we'll get off the car at the end."

Lin Xiaowan nodded to Lu Zhanbei. His words did make him relax. If he came to persuade him now, he would be even more nervous.

Zhang Yanyan passed by the two of them without saying anything. She raised her chin and got off the car first, but Lin Xiaowan didn't even want to pay attention to her.

The two of them waited for everyone in the car to get off the car.

Lin Xiaowan's house is not on the street, but in front of the primary school at the foot of the North Mountain. After getting off the bus, he had to walk north for a few minutes.

The two of them walked forward with their things. The two of them dressed up in this way appeared in the village, which was very attractive. Many people recognized that it was Lin Xiaonn, but they were not sure. They looked like each other, but they didn't feel like each other.

So along the way, some people were talking behind their backs, but no one talked to Lin Xiaowan.

In the past, Lin Xiaowan was not a talker. She always had thick and long bangs and did not look up when she saw anyone. So at this time, she really didn't remember what she should call the person Lin Xiaowan met, but she smiled politely and nodded.

Fortunately, the village is not big, so after walking for a while, I arrived in front of Lin Xiaowan's house.

Although this familiar stone wall has been used for more years, it has been well repaired by Lin Anyong. The simple iron railing door is open and you can see the entire yard at a glance. The yard is not big and clean. There is a pigpen on the left, a well on the right, and a bucket is placed on the well platform.

The reason why two and a half rooms are said to be two and a half rooms is because when you enter the door, there is a kitchen. The kitchen is on the west side, and there is a big house and a big kang to the east. After Lin Xiaowan and his sisters grew up, in order to have some private space, Lin Anyong divided a room with wooden boards in the middle. Although it is not soundproof, it can be considered half. There is a small warehouse next to the main room with some farm tools.

The window frames are not painted, the glass of the windows is very clean, there are peppers, a few ears of corn and a braided garlic on the eaves, and chicken coops are hung on the windowsill, which is a simple farmyard.

At this time, many families had already built brick and tile houses, and there were fewer and fewer such earth-brown houses, but their families were poor. When they were separated, Li Lanhua didn't give them anything. The village decided to approve the house. The land was fine, because it was a production team before, but later it was divided into households, and Li Lanhua couldn't take care of it. However, their family was honest and their relatives were not united in the unit, so there were tricks when they were divided, so their family had less land than other people's homes.

There are no boys in my family, and I am not as good as my sons in my family. With Li Lanhua's continuous exploitation, their family has indeed had a difficult life over the years.

Lin Xiaowan stood at the gate for a long time and didn't dare to go in. The feeling that she couldn't explain was either nervous and afraid or ashamed, or felt that it was unreal. She really came back. She held back her tears, but she had not yet resisted it, and two lines of clear tears had fallen.

Lu Zhanbei was stunned for a while when he looked at Lin Xiaowan, with tears on his face. He couldn't stand at the door all the time, so he still reminded her softly: "Xiaowan, are you okay?"

Lin Xiaowan came to his senses and quickly wiped the tears from his face with the back of his hand: "I just miss home, let's go in." As she said that, she walked into the familiar and unfamiliar door.

As soon as the two of them arrived at the door, they heard the quarrel inside.

"You must give me money today. I have received the bride price from Zhang Dajizi and his family, but you carried me on my back and married the money-lossing goods to the city. Aren't you cheating me? The bride price is not enough now, you must make it up for me, otherwise how could I explain to Zhang Dajizi and his family? People know that the money-lossing goods were married to the city and went to our family to make trouble. Are you going to force me to death?" Lin Xiaowan was so familiar with this sharp and harsh voice. This was the voice of his grandmother Li Lanhua who was biased to the point of being creaking.

It was because her mother had no son that she wanted to divorce her father and mother. Lin Anyong was not separated. Later, Li Lanhua drove their family out of the independent door, but this family was divided. However, Li Lanhua used her identity to mess with Lin Anyong all year round, asking for money and food every few days, saying that their family had no son, so they would pay for it sooner or later.
