Retirement Life

Chapter 9: My brother is getting married

Views:

Even though it was almost dusk, there were still a lot of people in the town, and those who wanted to go back to the village also started to rush back. The few people who were reluctant to pay a few cents for the fare could only carry their things.

Lin Mo bought all the things to be prepared, and the three of them carried the bamboo baskets to the designated place and waited for the donkey cart back to the village.

When they returned to Daling Village, half of the sun had set. When they came back, they were cooking at home. Lin Mo put down his things and went into the kitchen, took a look around and went out.

Take out the precious medicinal materials found in the morning, wash them, cut them into pieces, put them in a clay pot, add rice and water to cook porridge, and in order to fully exert the medicinal effect, Lin Mo dripped a drop of spiritual spring water into it.

Two of Lin Cheng's injuries are the most serious, the stomach injury and the head injury, the skin trauma is good to take care of, but the blood in the brain is hard to clean up, Lin Cheng wakes up once or twice in the past few days and still has spiritual spring water credit.

The medicinal material can speed up the healing of wounds on the stomach, and the wounds on the head can only come slowly. The spiritual energy in the Lingquan water is too strong. Even Lin Mo, who has been drinking for four years, has a maximum limit of one sip. People outside the space host can barely Only use a drop or two.

Because of the preciousness of the medicinal materials, Lin Mo had already taken some of them and left them in the Lingquan space in case someone would be injured in the future. Lin Mo divided the land in the space into a small part for planting.

Moreover, with its quick-healing medicinal effect, it can make money after being planted and sold in pharmacies.

Mrs. Lin's cooking skills are good. This is Lin Mo's feeling when he ate the first bite of food. Although it is not as amazing as Lin Mo's cooking, it still whets the appetite.

Because every time Lin Cheng has Lin Mo’s spiritual spring water in his meals, Lin Cheng wakes up in the afternoon, and has not fallen asleep again until now after dinner, but because his body is still weak, he can only lie on the bed and be fed by Mrs. Lin .

After dinner, Lin Mo stopped her when Mother Lin packed up her things and was ready to go back to the house to rest.

"Mo Geer, what's the matter?" Mother Lin walked into his room and asked while sitting by the bed.

"Mother... brother must marry someone?" Lin Mo lowered his head slightly, unable to see his expression.

Mother Lin was taken aback, and then she remembered that because Mo Geer seldom went out because of his health, he didn't know much about his situation, and she didn't have time to tell Mo Geer about it.

"Yes, doesn't Mo Geer want to find a husband to take care of you?" Mother Lin patted Mo Geer's head and said softly.

Lin Mo's body froze for a moment because of her contact, but he also quickly relaxed, so fast that people felt that his discomfort just now was just an illusion.

Looking for someone to live with? Perhaps this thought had occurred before the end of his previous life, because considering the status of the Lin family in Shangjing and the future of his eldest brother in the army, Lin Mo did not tell his family about his sexual orientation.

Also because of his personality, even if he likes someone, he can only fall in love with him secretly, and he can't confess if he dares not. Lin Mo's mind is a little dazed, and now he has forgotten the face of the senior he had a crush on in high school.

If it wasn't for deliberately searching for memories in his mind, Lin Mo might not even know that he had a crush on someone he liked or had a crush on? It seems that that person has a bad attitude towards him. Lin Mo really couldn't think of why he had a crush on that person in high school.

In Lin Mo's view, the kind of male god in the eyes of girls in the school days will definitely not survive long in the last days, um... At most, he will live for a year. After all, people like him will be arrested and sent to research after a year The institute conducted slice research. If it weren't for the spiritual spring water to hang him, I am afraid that a powerless person like him would not be able to live that long.

What's more, after four years of the apocalypse, Lin Mo's heart full of holes has become numb. Will he still have the heart to like people

Even now, his kindness to the Lin family is based on the foundation of the family in the previous life, otherwise, how could Lin Mo open his heart to strangers so quickly, even if he now occupies the body of their son.

The betrayal and injury he suffered in his previous life made Lin Mo understand that he should not trust anyone except his family, even if some of them are good people, but Lin Mo did not want to let himself be hurt because of a small probability.

"Then... what's the matter with the unified distribution by the government?" Lin Mo asked after being silent for a long time.

Mother Lin looked at her child with her head down, wondering what she was thinking, sighed inwardly, and began to explain to Lin Mo.

When the first emperor was still a child, the population of the country suddenly shrank a lot because of the wars between Yu country and other countries. Although he won the victory, the vitality of Yu country was also seriously injured.

So the court promulgated a new law, that is, men, women, and younger brothers who have reached the age must marry or marry, and those who have not yet married after the time limit will be collected and handed over to the local government for random distribution. In the end, whether the two parties want to or not, they have to get married.

When this law was first promulgated, it attracted opposition from a very large number of people, but the opposition was invalid. In order to rapidly increase the population in a short period of time, Yu country resolutely implemented this law.

The people also gave up after knowing the result of their opposition. Anyway, the age limit for marriage is similar to the time they used to marry, except for the point of "if the time limit is reached, the marriage will be arranged by the government".

However, after two dynasties, the population of Yu Kingdom gradually increased, and the 'time limit' of this law has also changed a little.

You can marry after you become an adult, but the "time limit for being single" is before the age of 20 for men, and 16 years for women and younger brothers, but for some wealthy families or royal relatives, it can be delayed until before the age of 18. As long as you have money or power.

Because they don't want the government to arrange for someone they don't like, many families will quickly find a good family for the child as long as the child is an adult.

Until now, most of the people in the government's unified distribution are gangsters that no one cares about, or widowers or divorced people with children.

However, only some people know this kind of inside story, at least farmers or people without money and power do not know.

Therefore, no matter what, it is impossible for Yu country to have people who will not marry for life. Even if the person who is divorced or the person in love passes away, they will have to find another one after a few years.

Of course, these rigid rules have little effect on the rich and powerful or the royal relatives. After all, many families not only have wives, but also concubines.

"In the past, mother didn't know that the people in the 'government distribution' would be these people, so she didn't worry too much, but now that she knows, mother doesn't want our brother Mo to marry into those people's homes and suffer."

"Our Brother Mo has been held in our hands since childhood and has been spoiled since childhood. Even if we want to marry in the future, we must marry a good family."

Lin Mo lowered his head and let Lin's mother hold his hand and talk. Although there was no expression on his face, and no emotion could be seen, Lin Mo's heart was turbulent at this moment.

This sentence is very familiar, so familiar that Lin Mo has the urge to cry.

"Our little prince is afraid of falling when he holds it in the palm of his hand, and afraid of melting if he holds it in his mouth, hahaha... Come on, second brother hug one..."

Brother, can I still have a hug now...

"If someone bullies you at school, tell me, brother will beat him up for you..."

Brother, all of them bullied me... Lying on the operating table all day long, with only numbness and emptiness in the eyes, there is an occasional flash of hope in the eyes, but it disappears soon...

'Mom's sweet baby, smile again, mom will take a picture of you...'

Mom... I can't stop laughing, sorry...

Lin Mo was in a trance, he seemed to hear the talking and laughter of his mother and brothers.

"...We are not in a hurry, there is still more than a year, Mo Geer can look carefully, if we find someone we like, we will marry, but we need to find someone who will love Fulang..."

"We, Brother Mo, are going to be pampered for the rest of our lives. Before we get married, we are pampered by our family members, and after we get married, we have to be pampered by our husband-in-law."

"Our little prince will be pampered for the rest of his life. The baby has such a soft and cute personality... Forget it, forget it, I won't get married, and my parents will take care of me for the rest of my life..."

Lin Mo felt that his heart was suffocated for a moment, and he could hardly breathe.

"...Okay, I will find it." Lin Mo's voice was hoarse.

Lin Mo didn't listen to what Lin's mother said afterwards, he just responded in a low voice when Lin's mother asked him, and after that, he didn't even know when Lin's mother would leave.

Mother Lin went back to the house, took off her shoes and lay down on the bed. Father Lin turned over and lay flat when he heard the movement.

"What did Mogeer ask you to do?"

"Old man, it's time for us to find a good home for Mogeer."

"Huh? I haven't seen you say this before. What happened?" Father Lin opened his eyes, turned his head to look at his wife lying beside him, and asked in confusion.

Mother Lin sighed, and then told him the news she heard today, as well as Mogeer's unusual behavior just now.

"This..." Lin's father was a little angry when he heard it, but he was more fortunate that they knew now, it was not too late, and there was still time.

"There is still more than a year. We usually pay more attention to it. If we find someone who fits our eyes, let Moge take a look. There will always be a suitable one." Mother Lin said.

"Let her see Ah Lan as well." Father Lin added.

"Actually, I want Mo Ge'er to marry closer, preferably from our Daling Village. If he is far away, I worry that he will be bullied and no one will help."

Mother Lin was a little worried. Brother Mo was too soft-tempered and not very talkative. He wanted to handle everything by himself. Mother Lin was worried what would happen if Brother Mo was wronged at her husband's house.

Mother Lin felt that it was useless for her to worry alone, so she spoke out her worries. It is better for two people to figure out a solution than one person to think about it.

"According to what you said, I think of a person who is about the same age and basically meets the requirements." Father Lin said after thinking for a long time.

"who?"

"Cheng Yan."
