    Li Lin spent a whole day and scrapped several drafts before scaling the painting from small to large.

    Jin Yu came back from the academy and just stepped through the door. Li Lin stuffed a stack of papers over and covered his eyes so as not to look at Jin Yu.

    ¡°Oh no, no, no, no, now I¡¯m tired of seeing Brother Quan¡¯s face!¡±

    Jinyu took the paper and glanced at Li Lin who was screaming, "I didn't ask you to draw me. You deserve it."

    After looking at Li Lin's paintings one by one, Jin Yu looked at Dongqing and said, "It can be done."

    ¡°You can achieve great things!¡±

    Holly couldn¡¯t hide her joy, and she was one step closer to her goal.

    "I'm going to cook today and go eat something good."

    Seeing Dongqing in high spirits, Jin Yu unconsciously put on a smile and carefully locked the door. The three of them found a small restaurant, ordered some home-cooked dishes, and had a full meal.

    Li Lin has to rush to Xianglang to take the government examination, so he cannot delay too much time in the county town to avoid missing the examination time.

    Dongqing and Jinyu sent him outside the city together.

    "Don't give it away, go back. I will be back within a month."

    Dongqing waved goodbye, "Now you know how to make dot paintings. You must remember to practice well and you can start making them when you come back!"

    "Okay, I understand, I will." After Li Lin finished speaking, he picked up the baggage and turned to leave.

    Dongqing and Dongqing watched Li Lin's figure disappear at the end of the official road, and then returned to the city hand in hand.

    Jinyu lives a life of two o'clock and one line of work every day. She gets up in the morning and goes to the college to discuss national conditions and aspirations with her classmates. After dinner in the afternoon, she goes back to her small courtyard and makes cross-stitch embroidery with Dongqing.

    With Jin Yu¡¯s guidance, Chen Junran became more diligent in making embroidery. Excluding the time spent studying, he could produce a set of simple finished products in almost five or six days.

    If it is a screen or a larger one, it will take ten days and a half to complete.

    Whenever Jin Yu and Chen Junran came up with a new pattern, Dongqing would make copies while the two were studying, and then sell the copies.

    More than ten days passed like this, during which time I received a reply from the village chief, saying that Jin Yu¡¯s family had received the letter and asked him to bring a letter with him.

    The general content of the letter is that this year¡¯s crops have been planted in the ground, and it¡¯s not good to just throw them away and move them away.

    ¡°And they all moved out of Qingshuigou, and it was difficult to deal with the problem of land and house placement at home.

    ¡°If it were sold, some people would be willing to buy it, but after all, it was their hometown where they had lived for decades, and their ancestral graveyards were all in Qingshuigou. They would not feel at ease if the land and house were completely sold.

    Leaving behind the house and land is like leaving behind roots, and I feel reassured that if I can't, I can still go back to my hometown and pick up my old job. I am a little poor, but I feel at ease.

    If you don¡¯t sell land and houses, there is another problem.

    Their house has earthen walls and a roof covered with pine needles. The roof needs to be repaired every year and new pine needles are picked to patch it up.

    ¡°If they leave and no one takes care of it, the roof will leak, the earthen walls will collapse due to rain, and the house will be flattened in a few years.

    If no one cultivates the land, it will become overgrown with weeds and return to wasteland.

    There was a lot of ramblings in the letter, and it seemed that the village chief didn¡¯t mind wasting his words at all, as he completely relayed what Jin Yu¡¯s family said.

    Jinyu had no choice but to go back and discuss with Dongqing. If the letter was followed, the family would not move into the city until at least the crops were harvested this year.

    In this case, we have to go in September.

    Furniture in the county is very expensive, iron pots are even more ridiculously expensive, and the house is lacking all kinds of tables, chairs, benches, pots and pans.

    I thought that my family would move in as soon as possible, so as to save money on buying those things.

    In order to save money, Dongqing only bought a steamer and a casserole, and she used them to prepare her meals every day.

    Dongqing is also good at cooking and can cook with two pots. Otherwise, how could she live without necessary household items?

    If the family only moved in in September, Dongqing would not be able to deal with it like this for five or six months, and she would have to spend money to buy missing items.

    When the time comes for Old Man Li and the four of them to move in, they will have an extra set of household items, which is totally a waste of money.

    Jinyu summarized the key points in a long letter, saving Dongqing from reading it again.

    After hearing all the concerns of her family members, Dongqing could sum it up in one sentence, that is, unwillingness to give up.

    I can¡¯t bear to part with the newly planted crops, and I can¡¯t bear to part with the clear water ditch where I grew up.

    The most important thing is that Mr. Li and his wife are reluctant to part with the few acres of mountainous land and adobe house at home. It is a pity to abandon the food without taste.

    &??Same as the two hollies.

    Now that the big dog has nowhere to go, he can guard her every day.

    Seeing that Cuizhi has been running the stall for a few days, the business is not bad, Dongqing is completely relieved, and everything is really on track now.

    After Wang and Old Man Li cleaned the house inside and out, they felt they had nothing to do. They couldn't get involved in what Dongqing and Jinyu were doing, so they could only follow Cuizhi to make snacks and set up shop.

    It was early May. Li Lin came back from taking the exam in Xianglang and went directly to Dongqing's house in Pingcui Lane.

    After holding the door knocker for a long time, Mrs. Wang came to open the door.

    Seeing Wang, Li Lin was stunned for a moment, silently stepped back, and looked around. He wondered if he had gone to the wrong place.

    Li Lin scratched his head. Was he here last time?  Is it possible that within a month, Dongqing and his wife were in debt and someone had occupied their house?

    "What aboutthe people who lived here before? They were a couple. The man was vicious and disgusting, and the woman was petite, sweet and lovable."

    Wang looked at Li Lin up and down, "Are you talking about holly?"

    Li Lin nodded hurriedly, "Yes, yes, it's Holly."

    "Then come in, Dongqing went out to sell cross-stitch embroidery." Wang opened the door completely and let Li Lin in.

    Li Lin let out a sigh of relief when he walked in. Fortunately, Dongqing was still here. He heard the Wang family behind him faintly say: "The one you mentioned with a fierce look that makes people dislike him is my youngest son."

    "Ahem, that's not what I meant. Brother Quan and I are good brothers. We are used to joking."

    Li Lin was a little embarrassed. It was really not good to say that someone else's son was disliked in front of a mother.

    He still remembered that although his mother disliked him very much, she could not tolerate others saying something bad about him.  His mother often scolded him at home for not doing his job properly. But the last time a talkative woman said that he was not doing his job properly, his mother got into a quarrel with someone and almost got involved.

    Wang didn¡¯t think too much, and asked Li Lin to sit down casually, ¡°I understand, by the way, what¡¯s your name? Do you have anything to do with Ergou and Dongqing?¡±

    "Two dogs? Pfft" Li Lin couldn't help but laugh at Jin Yu's original name. Seeing Wang's face, he immediately said seriously: "I'm going to discuss the business with brother Quan and sister-in-law."

    "Oh, you sit down first and I'll get you some water. Ergou and Dongqing won't be back until evening."

    Li Lin stood up and walked out, "Auntie, don't bother me. I'll go to the college to find Brother Quan." (Remember this website's website address: www.hlnovel.com
