140 Protective and Cunning
“Tomorrow, we’ll buy some paper money and burn it for your father,” Liu Shi said to Lin Xiaoyue.
It was indeed time to let him go.
Lin Xiaoyue was a little confused.
“Alright, mom!”
Of course she did not believe that it was her father’s spirit who had sought revenge on Old Madam Lin and Lin Lanhua. However, after she had transmigrated, she had been using her father’s name to do things.
If burning paper money for her father could make her mother feel at ease, then she would do it.
However, there’s something strange about this matter.
Looking in the direction of the mill, Lin Xiaoyue suddenly had some ideas.
Then, she went to look for Li Xiao.
In the mill, Li Xiao was still packing up some things.
Seeing that Lin Xiaoyue had arrived, a smile appeared on his face.
“The stone mill is ready to be used. Has the rice been soaked?”
“Yes, but it hasn’t gone soft yet. We’ll have to wait a little longer.”
Did he do this?
After she returned to her room last night, she didn’t check on his whereabouts. It was likely that he’d done something.
Old Madam Lin and Lin Lanhua were unconscious in front of the toilet for the entire night…that sounded familiar.
Didn’t Fourth Uncle Lin spend the night in the mountains? If it wasn’t for the storm, he might not have woken up until dawn.
“I’ll grind it later,” Li Xiao said.
He noticed that Lin Xiaoyue was looking at him strangely, and the corners of his mouth rose again.
“What’s wrong?”
“Did you go out last night?” Lin Xiaoyue lowered her voice and asked.
There couldn’t be ghosts. It was definitely this man’s doing.
Li Xiao paused.
“You’re the one behind the Lin family’s incident?” Lin Xiaoyue could tell.
“Yes.” Looking at Lin Xiaoyue’s eyes that seemed to be able to see through everything, Li Xiao admitted it.
Lin Xiaoyue heaved a sigh of relief and then smiled.
Li Xiao was a little confused.
Was she angry or happy?
“Don’t do this next time,” Lin Xiaoyue said, holding back her laughter.
Li Xiao was still confused.
Lin Xiaoyue glanced at Li Xiao, “Aunt Sun said that there are rumors that the Lin family house is haunted, and that It was dad who stood up for us.”
“Mom just told me to buy some paper money to burn for dad tomorrow.”
Li Xiao looked awkward.
Was he causing his father-in-law to take the blame?
“Hmm, I won’t use this method again!” He said.
Lin Xiaoyue was amused by Li Xiao’s expression.
Together with Li Xiao, they started to work in the mill.
He was making her like him more and more. He was protective and cunning, just like her.
Lin Xiaoyue only returned to the kitchen when it was almost time.
She sent the soaked rice to the mill.
Then, the two of them ground the rice into rice milk.
Then, Xiao Qing, who came out of the backyard, started the fire with Lin Xiaozhi, and Lin Xiaoyue started to make the cold cakes.
When Liu Shi saw the smoke coming from the kitchen, she stopped chatting with Aunt Jiang and the others and went to the kitchen to help.
In the end, they all came along.
They only discovered Lin Xiaoyue’s skills after hearing about the cold glutinous cake she made during the construction of the house.
The men of the Jiang and Sun family told them when they went back home, so Aunt Jiang, Jiang Xiaohua, and Aunt Sun were so curious about the cold cakes.
In a short while, Lin Xiaoyue had made five trays of cold cakes.
Then, everyone took some and sent them to the pond to cool down.
Lin Xiaoyue said that she would give some to the Jiang and Sun family. The three of them said that they were embarrassed to accept it, but they took them anyway.
When they heard that they were going to sell them in town, the three of them agreed that they could give it a try.
