Chapter 36: Chapter 36 Going Too Far
Chapter 36 -36 Going Too Far
The Old Couple of the Lin family didn’t know about the incidents in the village today, so when the brigade leader and Accountant Sun came over, they were somewhat puzzled. But after Accountant Sun explained the situation, the eyes of the Old Couple of the Lin family reddened.
They had actually run out of food recently. They hadn’t received much grain last autumn since the old man had been injured and unable to work, and Old Lady Lin was not well enough to engage in high-point labor tasks.
The brigade leader, being kind-hearted, allowed her to manage the comings and goings of livestock in the breeding yard. The job wasn’t strenuous but it required literacy to keep records, and since Old Lady Lin could read, the villagers couldn’t say much.
However, last year their younger daughter came back complaining that with so many children at home they were never full. When she left, she took quite a lot of grain, leaving the couple since then without a single full meal.
It was fortunate that they now had wild vegetables, or else the Old Couple might not have endured.
Their knowledge of the Zhao Family’s issues was limited, albeit they had seen the girl from a distance a few times without interacting with her. They had not expected that in their hardest times, this girl would bring them hope.
After the brigade leader and Accountant Sun left, the Old Couple of the Lin family felt full of gratitude toward Luo Qiao. They had been surviving on wild vegetables for two or three days already.
Old Man Lin comforted his wife, “Perhaps we old bones can hold on for a few more years and maybe even get to see our son.”
After speaking, both of them had tears in their eyes.
Luo Qiao saw that it was getting dark and so she tidied up and entered the space.
The bupleurum and dandelions she had thrown in before had been planted by Luo Qiao, saving her the trouble of searching for them when needed.
Now the space was brimming with life, with young sprouts appearing on the crops planted in the fields. After exercising, she practiced a set of military boxing before soaking in a hot bath in the space.
Once she had tidied herself up, she went to the study and picked up the books about Embroidery Technique. She had already read several of them, which encompassed the famous embroidery styles of Suzhou, Hunan, Guangdong, and Shu.
Luo Qiao was growing increasingly fond of embroidery. She planned to finish this book and then try her hand at it on the embroidery frame. In her past life, she had studied fashion design, which included embroidery.
She had learned embroidery before, but her skill was mediocre. Now, having read so many embroidery techniques, she thought maybe she could embroider a bright future for herself.
Ha-ha, just kidding. Embroidery is too hard on the eyes. It makes for a nice hobby, but studying Embroidery Technique without a teacher’s guidance would probably not be effective. Still, in her spare time, it was something to ponder more about.

But just as she finished reading the book and took out the embroidery cloth and threads, she heard knocking from outside. Luo Qiao quickly put her things away, left the space, and after listening intently, she recognized it was someone from the Zhao Family.
Luo Qiao knew what they wanted but thought the Zhao family people were really inappropriate; it was already dark and they were still coming over. No matter what the reason, this was simply too overbearing.
Luo Qiao decided not to open the door. After all, she would have plenty of excuses tomorrow, whether it was saying she was too scared to open it or claiming she slept too deeply to hear the knocking. What could they do to her?
Just as she had resolved not to open the door, another group of people arrived—she could tell by their voices that it was the brigade leader and his wife and Accountant Sun coming together.
The brigade leader asked, “Why aren’t you folks staying in your own homes in the middle of the night instead of coming to Luo Qiao’s doorstep?”
The Zhao family people hadn’t expected to be caught by the brigade leader and Accountant Sun before even making contact; it was indeed a blow to their dignity.
