Legacy of The Lost Pages Chapter 7

Finn’s face was embarrassed, Avery said so, what else could he say? Can he say that sister, you are going to sell blood again? If you say this, isn’t that forcing your sister to die? If this is spread out, will he still be a human being? Finn looked at the Xiao family, and found that the people next door to the Xiao family were also whispering. His fleshless face turned red.

The four brothers of the Lin family came to the door, carrying baskets, and the neighbors of the Xiao family also saw it. Because now is the time to reduce consumption and reduce physical strength, everyone is basically at home.

At this moment, Avery said these words, and naturally some people heard it. Everyone was surprised. My brother asked my sister to sell blood for money? What’s the matter? Of course, some people are also curious, is it really possible to sell blood for money?

Although Finn at this time is selfish, a little smart, and will calculate his eldest sister, but in the end he is only 13 years old, and he has not yet had the shameless and wolf-heartedness in the later plot. So in the face of other people’s whispers, he only thought that everyone was talking about him, and he hurriedly said: “Eldest sister, it was my fault, I shouldn’t let you sell blood, don’t go anymore, there is nothing better than sister you. More important.” He would also say nice things.

Avery was moved and held Finn’s hand: “Finn, you are so sensible, don’t worry, my sister listens to your words and will never be able to sell blood again.” Then, she held Oliver’s hand again, ” Oliver, my elder sister sold blood once, but now her health is dead. This family has to rely on you to support it. As the saying goes, before the elder sister was like a mother, there was an elder brother like a father. You are the elder brother of the Lin family. How many? My younger brother’s future also depends on you, elder sister… elder sister is really useless, she can’t sell the second blood, woo woo…” She choked up.

Oliver’s mouth has grown, but he can’t make a sound. The eldest brother is like a father, everyone knows it, but it is impossible for him to sell blood like his sister.

“Oliver?” Avery looked at Oliver, “Could it be… Could it be that you are so ignorant? So unkind? So unwilling to take care of your younger brothers?” Oliver’s usual sense of presence is not as strong as Finn’s. In the middle, Finn’s idea is everything, and the other brothers listen to him, but this does not mean that the other brothers are not selfish, but Finn’s idea is beneficial to their interests, so they all listen to him, But once their interests conflict, then… will they still listen to Finn?

First of all, Oliver is the eldest brother, and the eldest brother is like a father’s burden, what will he do?

Oliver was hesitant to say anything, and when he saw other brothers looking at him, his face flushed abruptly.

wow…

At this time, Fifth Brother Lin started to cry again.

Avery hurriedly picked up Lin’s fifth brother. The two-year-old child is not heavy, and with malnutrition, he is small and looks light. Avery hugged her and coaxed: “Fifth brother is good… Where is my elder sister? Fifth brother is good…” She hugged and coaxed softly, with a different kind of tenderness on her body.

Ethan came out with a bowl: “First let fifth brother drink some boiled water, it’s warm.”

People in this era all drink cold water (landscape), and the same is true of Xiao’s family. There is warm water at this time, but it was boiled because they wanted to make ginseng tea before.

Avery: “Yeah.” She sat on the stool on the side, and then fed Mason a drink, while coaxing, “Fifth brother is good, sister is here, don’t cry…”

Ethan watched from the side, looking at the thin girl, softly coaxing the child with a soft, sweet voice, he thought, if she had a child herself, she must be so gentle.

Brother Lin’s voice was hoarse and dry when he cried. He had water to drink at the moment, so naturally he couldn’t wait to drink. He was choked and coughed. Avery wanted to find a place to put the bowl, and Lucas said, “Give it to me.” Avery gave the bowl to Lucas, and she patted Fifth Brother Lin’s chest lightly.

Ivy is somewhat satisfied. Although her daughter-in-law is young, it is good to have children.

Ivy looked at Avery, then looked at Oliver and the others, and thought for a while: “Since everyone is here, let’s have dinner here at night, and by the way, let’s talk about the marriage of Xiaoyuer and Elsie… one by one. Although it is said that Avery’s parents are gone, but fortunately, Avery is the eldest sister and can make decisions by herself.” Ivy said this, indirectly telling Avery that she can make decisions about her marriage, and she doesn’t need to listen to a few younger brothers. .

However, this made Mrs. Xiao a little unhappy. First of all, everyone can’t get enough to eat. What’s the matter with entertaining these oil bottles? Secondly, if the second uncle gets married at this time, wouldn’t there be another mouth in the family? There are already more mouths from the uncle and the daughter-in-law, and this is all the food that is deducted from them.

Finn: “Eldest sister and brother Yu’s marriage?”

Ivy said: “Yes, one-one is 15 years old and can get married, mainly because our little fish is 22 years old this year, and other people’s children of this age are crowded, so our little fish can’t be dragged on any longer. .” Ivy’s words also have a way, she did not say that Avery wanted to marry, but said that her son wanted to marry a wife. If it is said that Avery is going to marry, then people will say that Avery is married as soon as her parents die, which is not filial. And if the Xiao family wants to marry a daughter-in-law, then it’s hard for others to say anything. After all, whose son is 22 years old and is not in a hurry to marry a daughter-in-law? And the Xiao family doesn’t have to be filial to the Lin family.

Finn immediately said: “But the eldest sister is going to get married soon after the parents left, isn’t that bad?” He knew in his heart that if the eldest sister got married, what would happen to the family in the future? Who will do the laundry and cooking? So… Finn’s eyes flashed a calculation, the eldest sister can’t marry.

Avery immediately looked moved: “Second Army, elder sister knows that you feel sorry for elder sister, and elder sister doesn’t want to marry, but if we don’t marry, we will have no food or money. Auntie said that she spends 50 A catty of grain and 6 yuan as a dowry gift, I originally thought, with 50 catties of grain, our family will have food to eat, and with 6 yuan, we can make do with tuition fees. But now, my sister wants to understand, Sister is not married, even if our family has no food and no money, but at least we are all together, even if we starve to death, my sister will not marry, it’s a big deal… if my sister goes to sell blood, my sister’s blood is sold out If you die, there is still the army. The army is the eldest brother. The elder brother is like a father. Now, the eldest brother is like a father… Second Army, you are so kind, in the future the Third Army, Fourth Army and Fifth Brother will all be handed over to you, even if my sister sold her blood to death, you can rest assured, Oliver, don’t you think?”

Oliver didn’t say a word. He recalled what Avery said, if the eldest sister sold all her blood and died, he would be the biggest in this family, and it would be his turn to sell blood… No, he would never sell blood, and he didn’t want to die. However, if the eldest sister is married, the bride price of 50 catties of food and 6 yuan of bride price will belong to their family. If they have food to eat, they don’t need to sell blood. And… if the eldest sister is married to the Xiao family, if their family runs out of food, they can still come to the Xiao family. In this way, it is more cost-effective for the eldest sister to marry than not to marry.

After Oliver wanted to understand, he said, “Eldest sister, I agree with you marrying Brother Yu.”

Finn: “Big brother?”

Oliver said: “I am the eldest brother, the eldest brother is like a father, you have to listen to me.”

Finn pursed his lips. He used his eldest sister to be like a mother to persuade the eldest sister to sell blood to support them to study, and the eldest brother used the eldest brother to press him like a father.

Avery said: “Oliver, how can you do this? It turns out that you also want to drive your sister to get married. You are disgusted that after her sister sold her blood, she is not in good health, can’t go to work, can’t work, is it a waste? Oliver, you …You are so disappointed with your sister, how can you be so relieved that your sister will hand over the Lin family to you? It’s really… It’s so unkind and unconscionable. I… I might as well hit my father’s and mother’s graves to death.”

Everyone was stunned. They always felt that there was something wrong with Avery’s words, as if the logic was not like this, but after listening, they felt that there was no problem.

The most stunned is Ethan. Judging from the way he gets along today, he thinks the little fiancee is a playful and kind girl, but now…

Finn immediately said: “Big brother, this is your fault, how can you drive the eldest sister to marry? Even if the eldest sister is not in good health, we just need to keep her together as a few brothers, how can you drive her away? ?” Finn hadn’t thought of Oliver’s plan, he didn’t know that Oliver planned to let Avery marry the Xiao family, and then let the Xiao family support them. And Finn is not too old in the end, so he didn’t dare to think about plotting against the Xiao family for the time being. No, the brothers didn’t think of being together, so their thoughts were different.

When Oliver heard Finn say this to him, he just wanted to explain. Then I heard Avery say: “Second Army, you can’t say this about Oliver, Oliver is the eldest brother, the eldest brother is like a father, it’s not the way you say Oliver, so accusing Oliver in front of everyone, where do you put Oliver’s face? He has tens of thousands of mistakes, just say it properly, how can you accuse him? If everyone listens to you and mistakenly thinks that he really wants to drive me away, what should we do?”

Finn: “I…” What happened to him? Didn’t he say this after listening to the elder sister? Why is it that when it comes to the mouth of the eldest sister, it is not his?

Avery interrupted Finn’s words and said to Oliver: “Oliver, you are the eldest brother, the eldest brother is like a father, you have to show the majesty of a father, when your parents are gone, you are in charge, you can’t let your younger brothers climb you. On your head, otherwise the younger brothers will climb on your head now, and they will be even more unruly when they grow up, and they will bully you even more.”
