Chapter 17- Successfully Recognized

With the iron-clad proof that is the ‘magical’ photo, Lin Amo and several other aunts helped to enter the house to verify that there was indeed the birthmark on Zhou-ger’s body according to Wu Qingyuan’s words. No one doubted it anymore. 

Even if Mrs. Zhou continued to deny it vehemently, even the birthmark was verified- she had to accept the fact that her cash cow really flew. Wu Qingyuan has arrived!

Everyone happily discussed the photo without a doubt- Wu Qingyuan heaved a sigh of relief, and then immediately struck the iron while it was hot and asked the village chief to handle their settlement.

“Okay, I’ll handle it for you as soon as I can- I’ll transfer Zhou-ger’s name under yours and find you a settlement.”

The village head was very responsible, even if Wu Qingyuan didn’t say anything- he would’ve taken the initiative to mention it. 

As long as Zhou-ger’s name is moved out of the Zhou family, Mrs. Zhou will no longer be able to have any say about Zhou-ger’s marriage. Seeing a good ger being sold to an old man as a servant, as long as one has a conscience then one wouldn’t be able to bear it.

The more the village chief looked at Wu Qingyuan, the more satisfied he was. Although he always felt that Wu Qingyuan was not an ordinary man, he looked decent and took care of the elders of Zhou-ger. How could he be better than the mean and evil Granny Zhou!

“By the way, you probably don’t have a place to live right now. There are still a few vacant yards in our village. Are you thinking of building your own house or just buying it and moving in?”

There was no problem with the account, but the land and residence were something to worry about, and the village chief continued to actively inquire.

“Brother Wu, both buying and repairing one are fine. You can live in my house temporarily before the house is finished, and Zhou-ger will sleep with me!”

Lin Amo smiled excitedly and added.

“I plan on buying one directly- I’ll have to trouble the village chief to help me choose, find a decent one, and negotiate the price…”

Wu Qingyuan nodded and did not refuse- he really needs to solve these problems now. 

A deposit of one or two silver was given to the village chief, and in the unwilling gaze of the old lady Zhou, Wu Qingyuan asked Zhou-ger to enter the house to pick up his important things, and finally led him- with Zhang Dazhu’s reluctant look- to return to the Lin residence.

The crowd watching the excitement also followed while continuing to discuss gossip and happenings while going home for dinner. There was not much entertainment in the village. At least the next month, today’s events will be a topic after dinner in Liushu Village.

“Well, Zhou-ger- this child has suffered too much from life. As long as you care for him in the future- you will live at your uncle’s house during this period. You can live here as long as you want…”

Hearing Lin Amo said that the two would stay at his house for a while, Lin Laogen immediately agreed without hesitation.

But the old woman next to them only showed her a sullen expression when she heard this, and threw the wooden bowl in her hand heavily on the ground, making a loud ‘bang’, which frightened everyone, her expression was unhappy, and stared at Lin Laogen. Obviously, she was very dissatisfied that Lin Laogen took two unrelated people to live for free at their home. 

“Brother Wu, I’m sorry, my mother’s hands are not good, and it scared you- Amo, first take Zhou-ger back to the house and settle him down.”

Lin Laogen was very nervous and didn’t understand what his mother meant. He smiled and apologized while giving orders.

“Thank you, Uncle Lin, please accept this little money here. It will be used as the food expenses for Zhou-ger and me. I will have to trouble you.”

Wu Qingyuan understood the psychology of the old woman Lin, and he didn’t want to make it difficult for Lin Laogen. The sensible man took out two taels of silver and forced Lin Laogen to accept them. 

Even if Lin Laogen wouldn’t give her this silver now, she would later think of a chance to let her son take out the silver, which is no different from what Wu Qingyuan expects.

“Erfang family! What are you looking at? Hurry up and go to work, you want to be lazy and still expect to eat eggs without doing anything…”

But staring at Lin Laogen, he handed the silver to Lin Amo before she could even try to make a move- Old woman Lin’s face turned black again, but she couldn’t get angry.

Secretly cursing them in her heart, she turned and yelled at his daughter-in-law while turning around to enter the house. There was no way to yell at Lin Laogen, a stubborn cow, but she would be fine yelling at her second child’s family. 

In this era, the younger generations practiced heavy filial piety and generally did not dare talk back to their elders. The second wife married into the Lin family for many years and has not given birth to a son. She has no status and dared not to talk back, she could only start getting ready for work.

The man in the second family pursed his lips and his face was a bit ugly. Although he didn’t speak, he grabbed the wooden barrel from his wife and fetched water with his head down. He wiped the corner of his eye and brought his two daughters into the kitchen.

The third child of the Lin family has been eating the watermelon and had not said a word.

There was no smile on Lin Laogen’s face, and he said to his ger, “Amo, go and help your aunt…” 

“Got it, Dad.”

Lin Amo nodded obediently, helped Zhou-ger into the house, and then went to help.

Lin Tianbao also followed into the kitchen sensibly. There is basically no rule for a gentleman to go to the kitchen for country children, and men enter the kitchen in the same way.

The Lin family became busy, and Wu Qingyuan was not idle, taking the medicine Lin Amo had bought for Zhou-ger before. 

His supernatural powers are indeed amazing- even if his arm is broken, he can easily heal it, but he can only heal physical trauma- but Zhou-ger, who has been squeezed to work since he was a child- his illness cannot be cured at once. He can only transfer the supernatural power slowly, and then make him drink the medicine to recuperate.

Because it took time to cook the medicine and had to be guarded, Wu Qingyuan didn’t go to dinner with the Lin family at the table. The two brothers Lin Tianbao and Lin Amo brought them their meals.

Now that Zhou-ger and Wu Qingyuan have recognized each other as their relatives, and one has escaped from the sea of ​​suffering in the Zhou family, Lin Amo is happier than Zhou-ger himself, and still has a smile on his face.

“Brother Wu, you don’t know that Zhou-ger has had a hard time these years. People in the village say that my life is bad, but I think Zhou-ger’s life was harder. At least my father still loves me, but it’s better now, Zhou-ger. With your cousin, Granny Zhou can no longer let you work, and there is no need to marry Master Qian.” 

Lin Amo can’t help but keep talking in happiness- this is just one of his traits, when he is happy, he can never get tired of talking about anything and everything.

Lin Tianbao is similar to his brother. Children talk a lot, and he echoes his brother’s words. He chimes in with, “Brother is right,” “Brother really knows a lot,” “Ah so it was like this,” and so on.

Wu Qingyuan likes their personalities, especially Lin Amo’s. His cheerful personality always brings a happy smile on his face, which makes his heart tremble slightly like a breeze blowing in spring.

“Can you tell me more about Zhou-ger? Tell me about your previous lives…” 

The medicine was not ready yet, and he had nothing to do. He chatted casually while eating.

He calls it a chat when in fact, he was basically just listening to Lin Amo because there’s so much energy in the teen- he can talk for a long time as long as he finds one topic, and so he talks about the things of Zhou-ger from childhood to their current time.

Although twelve years is a long time, there are not many things to talk about. What Lin Amo talks about most is that Zhou-ger grew up with hardships and the things about Zhou-ger and Zhang Dazhu.

“Brother Wu, Brother Dazhu is a very good man. He really likes Zhou-ger. If it weren’t for wanting to marry Zhou-ger, he would have had many children at that age. If you don’t believe me, the village will know if you just ask. Brother Dazhu is really a very good person, honest and able to work, and he has a crush on Zhou-ger…” 

In the end, Lin Amo secretly observed Wu Qingyuan’s expression and kept saying good things about Zhang Dazhu.

Now that Wu Qingyuan has become the elder of Zhou-ger, so Zhang Dazhu would have to pass Wu Qingyuan if he wanted to marry Zhou-ger.

“You are so kind to Zhou-ger, you help him stabilize and match him up.”

How could Wu Qingyuan fail to see his careful thoughts and couldn’t help but make fun of him. 

“Zhou-ger is also very good to me. He saved my life when I was a kid. I- I didn’t speak to the matchmaker. I am telling the truth. Zhou-ger also likes Brother Dazhu very much… ”

Seeing Wu Qingyuan’s handsome face showing teasing, Lin Amo suddenly reacted, then he blushed and stammered in explanation.

They say that matchmaking is a job that can only be done by aunts who have become relatives. He, as an unmarried ger, is basically matchmaking people, but he will be laughed at if others knew about it. He had been so happy that he forgot the rules!

He was a little upset, and the more he explained, the bigger the smile on Wu Qingyuan’s face grew and the redder his face became. 

No matter how outgoing and lively he is, he really is embarrassed at this moment. He hurriedly said, “Brother Wu, make the medicine, my brother and I will see Zhou-ger.” Then he quickly got up and pulled Lin Tianbao off towards Zhou-ger’s room.

Lin Tianbao who was suddenly dragged to run, staggered and shouted, “Brother, slow down!”, but Lin Amo couldn’t slow down, his ears were red and he hurriedly pulled his brother to urge him, “Hurry up!” while continuing to run.

When the two brothers disappeared at the corner of the yard, Wu Qingyuan could still hear the crisp voice that belonged to the teenager.

Looking up, he filled the fire with a few sticks of firewood in a happy mood. He was looking forward to life in Liushu Village in the future.
