Lin Zhengshan was so frightened that he hurriedly got up and ran outside, shouting as he ran, "Mother, think it over again, we are family."

Su Ruojin watched this scene from afar without saying a word.

Lin Zhengshan was raised by Old Madam Lin. She didn't know how much affection Old Madam Lin still had for this nominal son. She was unwilling and unable to interfere, and everything was up to Old Madam Lin to decide.

After Lin Zhengshan left, Su Ruojin went to Madam Lin's room: "Grandmother."

When Madam Lin saw Su Ruojin, a smile appeared on her face: "Little Jin, are you not busy up front anymore?"

"It's alright, Yanluo and Zhihua are watching over things. I've come to see my grandmother."

Madam Lin knew perfectly well that Xiao Jin had come to comfort her because she was afraid that seeing Lin Zhengshan would hurt her feelings.

She felt a warmth in her heart: "Xiao Jin, Grandma knows you are a very capable person. Don't let Grandma hold you back. Don't worry, I have nothing to do with the Lin family anymore."

Unfortunately, Lin Jingyi is already dead, so she cannot divorce him and cannot escape the Lin family name.

Seeing that Madam Lin's mood was not greatly affected, Su Ruojin was relieved: "Grandmother, how could you be a burden to me? I'm counting on you to help me, otherwise how could I manage on my own? So Grandmother, you must take good care of yourself, I can't do without you."

Madam Lin smiled and said, "Good, good, good. Grandmother will take good care of herself. She will help my little Jin'er take care of her children in the future."

"Alright, then I'll have to trouble you, Grandmother."

Having been reborn, Su Ruojin never thought about getting married and having children. She thought it would be fine to live a simple and peaceful life with the old lady and Yuan Hong.

As night fell, Xiao Bao didn't want to be separated from Su Ruojin, so she slept with him.

In the middle of the night, Su Ruojin suddenly opened her eyes.

Then I heard some noises and muffled groans outside. The sounds were very faint and soon went silent, and everything returned to calm.

Su Ruojin smiled slightly, covered Xiaobao with the blanket, and fell asleep again.

With Xiao Bao around, this courtyard is practically impregnable. Any ordinary thief who dares to mess with the clinic is just asking for trouble.

The next morning, Yanluo came to help Su Ruojin and Xiaobao get up, complaining, "Miss, there must have been stray cats in the courtyard yesterday. They knocked over all the herbs that Zhihua and I were drying."

Su Ruojin's eyes flickered slightly.

A stray cat?

Hehe, maybe.

Meanwhile, Lin Zhengshan and Zhao Jiao waited at home all night, and it was almost dawn, but the people they had sent out still hadn't returned.

"Master, do you think something might have happened? It's already this late, why hasn't he come back yet?" Zhao Jiao paced anxiously back and forth in the room.

“I’ve sent people to investigate. The clinic only has some elderly, weak, women and children, and the few servants don’t know martial arts. With Zhang Ren and his men’s skills, there shouldn’t be any problems,” Lin Zhengshan said.

During the day, he went to ask Old Madam Lin for the Fire Spirit Ginseng but to no avail. After returning home and discussing with Zhao Jiao, they decided that since asking openly was not an option, they would try to steal it secretly.

Anyway, Lin Zhengshan is the prefect. If the clinic really loses something, the report will be sent to him first. He can then suppress the matter and it will be over.

Could a group of elderly, weak, women and children possibly cause any trouble?

Just then, a servant from the mansion rushed over in a panic: "Master, something terrible has happened! Master, you, you must go to the mansion gate and take a look!"
