Chapter 452 A woman on the run 27
"Sister, you, your nephew, and your niece all come to Beijing with me. I will take care of you from now on!" Lin Jiacheng said seriously.
Although his sister downplayed her experiences in the past few years, he knew just from these few words that her life must have been very difficult in the past few years.
Lin Hui looked at the tall boy's tall body and resolute face, knowing that he had endured a lot of hardships in the past few years to transform from a farm boy who had never left home to what he is today.
Although he is just the lowest military attache now, in the eyes of ordinary people, he is already a person of status. When he said these words at this time, he sincerely thought about his sister and children.
At this time, Zhiyong had just woken up from his nap and was drooling and grinning in Lin Hui's arms, while Cui Ya was nestled next to Lin Hui, looking at this so-called uncle curiously.
Cui Ya was only two years old when Lin Jiacheng left home. Although she was once carried out to play by her uncle, three years have passed and her memory of her uncle has long been blurred. Looking at him now is like looking at a stranger. generally.
Lin Hui did not immediately give her own answer to Lin Jiacheng's question. Instead, she asked him to freshen up first while she prepared some food for him.
According to the custom in Feng County, Lin Hui made a bowl of noodles and served it.
There was only some chopped green onion and eggs in the noodle bowl, so this young man ate it all without raising his head. He ate the whole bowl of noodles in one go, not even the soup was left. He drank them all, which shows that he was Really hungry.
There was an empty house next door to the house where Lin Hui lived. After obtaining Aunt Liu's consent, she packed up the house and gave it to her brother to stay temporarily.
Lin Jiacheng was on the road for more than two months and was really exhausted. After meeting his sister, mother and son, and making sure that they were all safe and sound, he let go of the sigh he had been holding in his heart and laid down on the simple bed. I lay down and never wanted to get up again. I slept from the afternoon of the first day until the morning of the next day.
Regarding going to the capital, Lin Hui actually didn't think about it for too long and made a decision quickly.
Although the folk customs here are good, it is still a small place. It is true that the folk customs are simple, but the people's knowledge and ideas are equally narrow.
There is always a prejudice against widows like her who live alone and have no backers. It may be okay in the short term, but it is hard to say after a long time. As long as her life is better in the later period and she buys property, she must have All kinds of monsters and monsters come out to swallow it.
Although the younger brother of the original body now has a low position, he has finally left his white body and can be regarded as a backer. Until his son grows up, the brother can also be the backbone of the family.
Lin Hui decided to go to the capital to see what the capital here was like!
When Lin Jiacheng woke up again and had dinner, he got a clear reply from his sister that she was willing to move to the capital with him!
However, even if they leave, they don't set off so quickly. They have to let Lin Jiacheng rest for two days. It is also best to go with the local caravan or escort agency, which is safer.
Lin Hui still had two pieces of embroidery that were about to be delivered, and she had to make them on time. Five days later, everything was done, and several people set off with the team from the county's Changfeng Escort Bureau.
Changfeng Escort Bureau is the largest escort bureau here. It has a wide range of business and is familiar with the route to Beijing, so it is right to find them.
Lin Jiacheng actually carried a lot of banknotes with him, but when he went south, he was worried about his sister's safety and hurried on. The whole journey was extremely convenient and he didn't pay attention to anything at all. Sometimes he even slept in the open air, just relying on his good health. Here we go.
But now I am going north to Beijing, taking my sister and two young children with me, so naturally I can't do this.
So this time on the road, he hired two carriages and hired a female escort to follow him to take care of his sister and children.
In fact, Lin Hui wanted to say that she didn't need anyone to protect her at all. If someone tried to rob her, she would not be the unlucky one!
However, in Lin Jiacheng's eyes, she was still the weak sister who needed his protection. Lin Hui could not show her strong side yet, lest she scare her younger brother.
Because there were women and children in the team, they couldn't go too fast. When the group entered Beijing, it was already winter. Winter in the capital was much colder than in the south, and snowflakes were already falling.
Lin Jiacheng's residence in the capital is a small rented courtyard in the north of the city. It has three main rooms and two side rooms. Although it is not big, it can currently accommodate these few people.
However, this house has not been inhabited for several months, so it needs to be tidied up, and the kangs in several rooms also need to be unclogged, otherwise they will not be able to be burned.
Lin Jiacheng has been on leave for several months. If he hadn't been arranged by a big boss in the military and had a strong enough backing, he would have been fired by Shangguan. However, even if he had a backing, he couldn't go too far. At this time, since After entering Beijing, we must quickly cancel our leave and return to the team.
So, he hurriedly hired a woman from a nearby tooth shop to come to his house to help his sister clean up. He also gave Lin Hui twenty taels of silver for household expenses, then hurriedly changed his clothes and returned to the Yamen.
Naturally, Lin Hui was not afraid of this kind of housework. She quickly ordered her mother-in-law to clear the kang first and then start burning it. Then she started from the main room and cleaned it up. In just one afternoon, she neatly tidied up the entire house. of.
Because it was cold outside, she and her two children had not yet fully adapted to the climate in the capital, and it was inconvenient for her to go out, so she asked the mother-in-law to buy all the items she needed at home.
It has to be said that shopping in Beijing is very convenient. Stores can deliver all items to your door. Even the firewood and water in the kitchen will be delivered to the stove. The firewood is neatly coded and the water is poured into the water tank for you. inside.
In short, if you have money, living in the capital is really convenient.
When Lin Jiacheng came back in the evening, the lights were on in the courtyard, the food was being heated in the kitchen, and there were people waiting for him at home. In a daze, he felt like he was in a dream!
When the food was served and smelling the aroma of the food, Lin Jiacheng's eyes became moist.
Over the years, whether it was when he was in his hometown or when he came out to make a living, he seemed to have never felt such warmth.
In the past, the two siblings were always the most annoying ones at home. Whenever there was delicious food, they had to stand back and be pushed to the front when doing work. They had to be scolded and scolded by their father and stepmother at any time.
In that so-called "home", he had never felt any warmth except from his sister.
Now, they finally have their own home, a place that belongs only to themselves and their sister, and where they can be the masters of the family.
From now on, no one will call them "death-seeking ghosts" in this home, starve them at every turn, and tell them to get out!
