Chapter 31 Inquiry

The store was so happy when the business came. Regardless of how shabby Lin Yiran was wearing, he asked, "Customer, the best room, twenty cents, medium ten cents, and five cents in the big bunk shop!"

Lin Yiran didn't reply, put down the burden and ran outside, helping Jiao Changgen to disperse the refugees, and helped his burden into the Tajian Store.

The refugees dared to enter the store and surrounded the door for a while. Seeing that the store didn't drive them out, they knew there was no hope and they dispersed.

"If these unruly people dare to enter my store, I will beat you up." The store dispersed and cursed, then asked Lin Yiran with a smile, "Little Customer, what room do you want to live in?"

Lin Yiran said to the store, "Store, can we exchange things for living?"

"Dong...you don't have money?"

"Yes." Lin Yiran replied softly.

The store owner waved impatiently: "Then go out quickly, go out quickly..."

"Boss--" Lin Yiran took a yam that was as long as a shoulder pole and said to the store, "This yam is enough for your family to take for two or three days. Can't you live in your big shop?"

The store owner hesitated: "This..."

Seeing the man hesitating, the store lady smiled and said, "Okay, little brother, come with me!" After that, she glanced at her man and led them to the backyard.

When the store wife came back, the store was dissatisfied, "What did you want them to live in if you don't have money?"

The shop lady said, "You damn, you eat better than money, and you don't understand!"

"Can……"

"This year's drought is severe. If you can get any food, don't be obsessed with it. Besides, this store has not been open for many days. It would be nice to have one. What else do you want to do?" The store lady said in a nagging manner.

"Oh, that's right, forget it, let them live!"

Jiao Changgen sat down on the edge of the well platform in the backyard and gasped, "It's still Brother Kobayashi who thinks so well, right? Is that good? There's also well water!"

Lin Yiran sighed, "Uncle, stop talking, hurry up and have late meals."

"Okay, let's do it right now!"

After they had enough, they took a hot bath. The hot water was provided by the store. It was really good, it was really good to have money!

Lin Yiran slept until midnight before she woke up. When she woke up, Ah Fu squatted beside her. Seeing her awake, she smiled narrowly, "Brother Xiaolin..."

"Afu, why don't you sleep more often? You wake up so early?"

"It's getting late, the sun is getting hot!" After Ah Fu finished speaking, he covered his little mouth and chuckled.

"Little brat!"

Lin Yiran changed into clean clothes and went to the well platform to wash. Aunt Jiao sat under the eaves to repair her clothes. Uncle Jiao squatted and didn't know what she was thinking.

After Lin Yiran washed up, Jiao Changgen asked, "Little Lin, if the rabbit is not treated, it will taste, it will be worthless!"

"I know!" Lin Yiran nodded and replied, looking at the reflection in the well water. She had been in the woods for more than a month and hadn't basked much in the sun. She felt that she had become whiter. It's really good. She was secretly happy. It seemed that this girl still had the potential to turn whiter.

Lin Yiran cleaned up cleanly and neatly. After eating yam cakes and drinking boiled water with salt, she felt that life had become better all of a sudden, so she took Xiao Afu's hand to the front yard of the store.

Jiao Changgen stared at Lin Yiran's back and wanted to call her, but he didn't shout it out.

Aunt Jiao, who was sitting under the eaves, looked up and said, "Don't worry, Brother Kobayashi will sell the fat rabbit."

"How did you know, he didn't say it?"

Aunt Jiao glanced at his man and said, "I have lived together for more than a month. What's the head of this child? I still don't know."

Jiao Changgen seemed to not know his wife, "Really?"

"Of course it's true. If you don't believe it, wait and see. I can sell it today!" Aunt Jiao said proudly.

Jiao Changgen turned his head and looked at the front yard, his eyes blinking for a long time without moving.

Tajian Shop Frontyard

Lin Yiran found a bench to sit down and had already talked to the boss's wife. The boss's wife chuckled, "Little brother, your outfit is very different from yesterday!"

Lin Yiran's little mouth is very sweet: "I'm making a joke about it by my elder sister."

"There is no joke, did you come down from the mountain?"

"It's not considered going up the mountain."

The boss lady said, "I said, I heard that the mountain ridge behind is very powerful. It is really unlikely that you can get off there."

"Fighting?"

"Don't you know, little brother?"

Lin Yiran shook her head, "I don't know!"

The boss lady chuckled again, "It seems that you don't know that you are not old. This bandit fights once or twice a year."

“Why?”

"So for the winter!"

"Oh, that's what it is!" Lin Yiran smiled, "Sister knows so much!"

After being flattered, the boss's wife happily said, "Of course, we open the door to do business. If we don't understand this, how can we do business?"

"Sister is so amazing!" Lin Yiran said to the top of the big sister and the big sister again, coaxing the owner of the Tsing Shop.

The boss lady said happily: "You little brother is really interesting. You are like a child from a wealthy family who knows literacy through writing!"

"It's not as good as the children of a wealthy family." Lin Yiran waved his hand modestly, and then changed the topic, "I wonder if there are any wealthy families in your town?"

"What do you say, a child? Of course there is!"

"Oh...oh, I just said casually, sister, don't blame me."

"What am I blaming!" The boss lady saw Lin Yiran's appearance as a rich family, smiled meaningfully, and suddenly pointed to the middle-aged man passing by and said, "Ji, this is the butler of the famous wealthy families in our town."

"Butler?" Lin Yiran smiled, "What is he doing now? Is he still alone?"

"Of course I'm going to buy food and other things!"

Lin Yiran was so happy when she heard this. She thought it would take a little more effort, but unexpectedly, the opportunity came so soon, so she hurriedly took Ah Fu's hand out, which made the boss's wife confused, "Does this kid want to curry favor with a wealthy family?"

The boss's wife guessed it right, Lin Yiran said to Afu aloud, "Afu, Brother Kobayashi is stewed with rabbits for you, do you want it?"

"don't want!"

"But Brother Kobayashi is very delicious!" Lin Yiran said as she glanced at the middle-aged man in front of her.

Rabbit meat, Ah Fu put his hands in his mouth so greedy that he stopped talking.

Lin Yiran was sweating in anger. Why didn’t he cooperate? Looking at the middle-aged butler who had been walking in front of her, she had the urge to call him directly. She glanced at Xiao Afu and smiled, "I said why don’t you talk anymore? It turns out that she is drooling!"

"Is it delicious, Brother Kobayashi?" Ah Fu asked with a choking saliva.

"Of course, Brother Kobayashi has a very good cooking skills."

"But dad..."

"Brother Kobayashi said it would stew it."

While talking to Xiao Afu, Lin Yiran secretly glanced at the butler in front of her. Seeing that the other party was not curious at all, she looked back. She was so anxious that she was about to reach the entrance of the town. What should I do? What should I do...?
