Lin Lan nodded: "Yes! I was ill when I was young, and my vocal cords were probably burned out. I haven't been able to speak since then."
The eldest sister looked at Lin Yuezhen sympathetically and said, "If you have a chance, take her to the provincial hospital to have a look. If it's not too early, maybe she can be cured."
After hearing this, Lin Yuezhen shook her head and gestured: "I have been mute for twenty or thirty years. I have given up hope."
When she couldn't speak, her parents took her to the city hospital. The doctors said her voice was broken and couldn't be cured. Her parents didn't give up, so they asked someone to find remedies and asked her husband to exorcise the evil spirits. They tried every method.
The family had spent all their money and was still in debt.
Even if she could get treatment in the provincial capital, it would still cost a lot of money. She had already paid for Xiaolan's expenses here, so she could no longer drag down their mother and son.
After Lin Lan explained it to her eldest sister, she also shook her head and said that it took too long and there was little hope.
Lin Yuezhen had known this result for a long time and was not disappointed. Instead, she advised Lin Lan not to take it to heart.
Lin Lan thought about going back and writing to Lao Chen, asking him to help find out if there was any hope of curing Lin Yuezhen's disease.
While everyone was busy, the cold wind started to pick up, a damp smell floated in the air, and the sky above the forest became gloomy.
Lin Lan looked at the sky and said to Lin Yuezhen: "Sister, it's going to rain. Go back quickly and get an umbrella to catch the beans. I'll keep watch for a while and then I'll close the stall and go home."
Looking at his warm smile, Lin Lan was stunned and her nose felt a little sore: "Why are you here?"
Thinking that Lin Yuezhen had just left not long ago, she was worried that Lin Yuezhen had not yet picked up Xiaodouzi, and that Xiaodouzi would get sick from the rain. Lin Lan was so anxious that she rode her bike back in the wind and rain, staggering.
"No, I have to go home and pack my things. Tomorrow, Xiangyang and I will go to the housing management office to apply for a certificate." Wang Chuan hesitated for a moment, then said, "Sister, listen to me, Xiangyang is a really nice person, don't miss it."
After pushing open the courtyard door, Wangcai stood on the eaves of the steps and kept wagging his tail at her. Two big geese and a group of chickens were crowded and shivering at the door of the woodshed.
"Got it!" Lin Lan pushed the cart and ran towards the outside of the eucalyptus forest.
"Thank you! Please walk slowly!"
Seeing her uneasy look, Li Xiangyang felt a little uncomfortable and wiped the rain off his face: "I'll help you put your things down first before going."
Lin Lan quickly put the unsold orchid beans and cakes into the back of the folder, covered it with an oilcloth, put the real estate certificate in his pocket into it, pushed the bicycle over and hung the folder on the rear seat frame.
In the wind and rain, he came too suddenly and his smile was too warm, which disturbed her heart.
"Put it away! It looks like it's going to rain heavily." Zhao Dehai said and started to pack things.
Lin Lan said politely: "Teacher Wang, go sit at my house for a while."
Wang Chuan glanced at the tearful Lin Lan in the rearview mirror and said with a smile: "Sister, you are so lucky. I will live a good life after marrying Xiangyang."
Wang Chuan nodded with a smile and started the car.
Before I even left the eucalyptus forest, heavy rain fell from the sky. Ice-cold raindrops hit my body, bringing a chill to my heart. The rain and fog covered the sky and sun, blurring my vision, and the road ahead also became blurry.
Wang Chuan turned around and saw Lin Lan sitting there with her head bowed. He felt a little strange. Seeing her like this, could it be that he and Xiang Yang weren't married yet?
Lin Lan came back to her senses, took a look through the rain and fog, and realized that she was almost there, so she hurriedly said: "Teacher Wang, please stop ahead."
Lin Yuezhen nodded and saw that she left without even changing her clothes. She hurriedly put on Xiaodouzi's coat and chased her out.
Lin Lan was confused. How could she and him be together? She was afraid of people's words and rumors, and more importantly, she gave up on love and felt that her current life was very good.
As soon as they reached Sancha Road, a black car kept honking its horn and forced Lin Lan to stop.
After thanking Lin Lan, she opened the car door and ran towards the door of her house. She saw that the door was ajar, and she felt quite relieved. Looking towards the road, she could only see thick rain and fog, and no one could be seen.
Lin Lan said to Yang Liying: "Third sister, close the stall, it's raining."
She originally thought that by the time Xiaodouzi grew up, it would be the twentieth century.
"Teacher Wang and Teacher Zheng took us to the bridge under umbrellas, and my aunt came and her shoes got wet."
Lin Yuezhen nodded, took the empty basket and left.
Yang Liying looked up at the sky: "I still have half a bucket of bean curd, and about ten pieces of tofu are not sold out!"
Looking back, he saw that Zhao Dehai and Yang Liying had already packed up, and shouted: "Third sister, I'm leaving first."
Lin Lan took an umbrella to the gate of the courtyard and saw Li Xiangyang riding over. She didn't know how to face him and had an urge to escape.
Just as Lin Lan was about to scold the driver, she saw Li Xiangyang opening the car door and walking towards her against the wind and rain.
"Sister, let's see if you've arrived home?"
"Okay!" Wang Chuan stopped in front.
Until then, when she is alone, she takes medicine when she is sick, holds an umbrella when she is hot, adds clothes when she is cold, eats whatever she wants, travels when she wants to go out, and watches TV dramas and online articles when she is bored.
Block or delete people you don't like. You don't have to face the three aunts and six women, and you don't have to go through it again. Everyone in the world knows that person betrayed you, and you are the only one who is kept in the dark. You will not be torn apart by the pain of betrayal.
lung……
Lin Lan entered the room and saw Xiaodouzi wearing long johns. She smiled and touched his head: "Fortunately, mom is still worried about you catching a cold in the rain."
Lin Lan shook his head, took a deep breath, and handed over the umbrella, "You are already soaked. Go to my uncle's house to find some clothes from Shen Dingbang to change into."
After half an hour, Lin Lan noticed that the dark clouds over the forest were getting thicker and thicker, with sporadic raindrops falling.
Lin Lan turned her head and looked at the man riding a bicycle steadily forward through the rear window, tears streaming down her face.
They looked at a house on Limin Street and ate in a restaurant. When they heard the hotel staff shouting that it was raining and collecting things, Xiang Yang couldn't sit still. He put down his money and dragged him to pick up people.
"Give me the bicycle. You get on the bus. Teacher Wang will take you back." Li Xiangyang stepped forward to park the bicycle, took the stunned Lin Lan to the front of the car, helped her into the car, and said to Teacher Wang, "Excuse me.
.”
Yang Liying warned: "The road is slippery, please be careful."
"It's okay!" Lin Lan picked up the umbrella: "I'll make some ginger tea later and soak my feet to get rid of the cold."
Lin Yuezhen ran out with an autumn coat in her hand. Seeing Lin Lan coming back, she smiled and went back to the house to dress Xiaodouzi.
Li Xiangyang saw her standing at the door waiting for him with an umbrella. A smile quickly spread on his face, and he raised his lips to reveal a mouth full of white teeth: "It's cold outside, hurry up and go inside."
Lin Lan had no choice but to follow him and walk inside.
Xiaodouzi pulled on her shoes and ran out. When she saw Li Xiangyang, she said happily: "Uncle Xiangyang, you have brought something back for my mother!"
Li Xiangyang looked at his happy look and nodded with a smile: "Yes! Have you been caught in the rain?"
"No, the teacher sent us to the bridge, and auntie came right away." Xiaodouzi looked at him with a smile, "You're even wet."
"Uncle is not afraid of getting wet in the rain." Li Xiangyang lifted the car to the eaves, and Lin Lan quickly stepped forward and took off the back of the folder.
