"Ahem."

He coughed hard, trying to prove his presence.

The coughing sound did attract Li Xiaoxiao's attention, but she asked with a puzzled look on her face: "Brother, have you caught a cold? Do you want me to make you some ginger sugar water?"

Li Yichang was almost pissed off by his naive sister. He smiled helplessly and said, "It's okay, big brother didn't catch a cold. He just had an itchy throat. He's fine now."

Only then did Li Xiaoxiao feel relieved and turned her attention back to Xu Jinhuan.

"Sister, whatever you said is no problem, I'll take care of it.

You don't have to pay me. My brother and I are eating and drinking for free at your place, which is not right in the first place. Just consider this as paying for my brother and me's meal."

Xu Jinhuan smiled and patted Li Xiaoxiao's head. "Okay, then let's do as Xiaoxiao said. Our Xiaoxiao is awesome. She can help her brother take on the responsibility of supporting the family."

Li Xiaoxiao nodded seriously and said with a sweet smile: "My brother has done a lot of wrong things over the years to help me with my treatment. I hope I can help him atone for his sins."

Li Yichang, who was standing by, was so moved that his eyes were filled with tears after hearing this. He walked over to Li Xiaoxiao and spoke seriously.

"Xiaoxiao, don't worry, I won't help the Wu family do bad things anymore, I will work hard to be Xiangxiang's man."

Li Xiaoxiao stood on tiptoe and stretched forward. After groping for a while, she finally touched Li Yichang's head. She smiled and said, "Okay, Xiaoxiao believes in brother."

While the three were chatting, the exile team slowly walked into the house, and soon the house was full of people.

"Oh, finally there is a tile to cover my head. If it keeps pouring, my raincoat will be soaked by water."

“Yes, the rain is really getting heavier. When we were climbing the mountain, I was thinking, it’s a good thing we are going up the mountain.

Otherwise, I can’t imagine what the temple would look like if it continued to rain like this.”

"It's all thanks to Miss Xu. I originally thought she was doing something unnecessary, but who would have thought she was so amazing!"

The ladies who were chatting now looked at Xu Jinhuan with admiration and respect, and all their previous little thoughts were completely gone.

After hearing these words, the Xu family members in the corner started arguing again.

"Youyou, if you know a little bit, go and apologize to Xu Jinhuan and ease the relationship between our family and her." Father Xu said with a pale face, touching the wound.

Xu Youyou turned around and quickly asked for help from her mother, "Mom, I don't..."

Before she could finish, Xu's mother also joined the persuasion team, "Youyou, your father is right, just listen to him."

Xu Youyou shouted in dissatisfaction: "Give up on this idea, I will never bow to her!"

Old Madam Lin, who had been refused entry to the cellar by Xu Jinhuan before, sat aside with a disdainful pursed lip and began to give instructions to Jiangshan.

"You are just ignorant and ignorant. That girl is not that powerful. I think she just happened to be lucky.

What about Boss Xu? I think she might have already been together with that Mr. Xie!"

The plump lady not far away was unhappy after hearing this. She pointed at Madam Lin's nose and cursed.

"You old hag, it's fine if you mistreat your own daughter-in-law and mother-in-law on weekdays, but don't even think about ruining the reputation of my Jinhuan family.

If you think she is not capable, then why didn't you fight the bandits? Why didn't you suggest leaving the ruined temple and going up the mountain to avoid the rain?

"You just keep talking nonsense day after day, but when the real thing comes, you run away faster than anyone else. Ugh, you are so hypocritical!"

Old Madam Lin was so stunned by the scolding from the fat white aunt that she even forgot to refute her.

Over there, after Xu Jinhuan finished talking about the plan with Li Xiaoxiao, they walked towards the direction of the plump aunt. She looked at Old Madam Lin with a cold face.

"If I hear you say one more word of nonsense, I will send your beloved grandson Lin Yaozu to see his grandfather."

After saying that, Xu Jinhuan stretched out his hand and threw her into Lin Yaozu's arms.

Lin Yaozu was so frightened by this grandmother who appeared out of nowhere that he felt pain in his arms and legs, and he almost threw Madam Lin out of his arms subconsciously.

Old Madam Lin was nearly knocked over by the fall. She was now holding her chest and groaning.

At this time, a child suddenly asked in confusion: "Sister, why did that annoying mother-in-law keep silent when she was about to send the annoying uncle to see his grandfather? Shouldn't she be happy to see her grandfather?"

The child's sister thought for a while and said seriously, "I remember that the annoying uncle's grandfather died a long time ago. Sending him to see his grandfather is like sending him to die."

The child nodded seriously after hearing this, "I see, that's how it is. What adults say is really interesting. I also want to send that annoying uncle to see his grandfather."

Xu Jinhuan was amused by the childish words. Upon closer inspection, she found that these two people were the brother and sister who had left a deep impression on her in the cellar before.

At this time, Mrs. Lin's face was black and white. No one would be happy if they were laughed at by children in public, let alone her, who was very concerned about her reputation.

Therefore, when he got angry, he started cursing at Xu Jinhuan.

"Xu Jinhuan, what are you so proud of? You just know some martial arts and are close to the chief of the police. I want to see how long you can be so proud."

Xu Jinhuan turned to look at Madam Lin, walked slowly towards her, and said venomously: "Don't worry about this, you will always be proud of it until you die."

When Mrs. Lin heard this, she felt that Xu Jinhuan was cursing her to death, so she stood up from Lin Yaozu's arms and wanted to curse him a few more times.

Unexpectedly, the more she thought about it, the angrier she became, and she was so angry that she fell backwards and fainted.

Everyone around her took a step back in unison. No one wanted to help her, not even her beloved grandson Lin Yaozu.

Xu Jinhuan walked to Madam Lin with a smile, and seemed to be rummaging in his sleeves, but in fact he took out a sharp dagger from the space.

She gestured at Madam Lin's mouth with the dagger in her hand for several times, as if she was studying something. Finally, she moved slowly and began to cut Madam Lin's lips bit by bit.

Soon, a blood-red lotus appeared on Madam Lin's lips.

The pain in her mouth woke Madam Lin from her coma.

She suddenly opened her eyes and subconsciously touched her painful mouth, then saw bright red blood on her hands. She almost fainted from fright.

Xu Jinhuan placed the cold, blood-stained dagger on Old Madam Lin's face and patted it, saying with a smile that did not reach her eyes.

"Next time you talk nonsense, I will sew your mouth shut stitch by stitch so that you will never be able to speak again. Do you understand?"

Old Madam Lin felt the burning wound on her mouth and nodded hurriedly. She was really scared. From now on, even if her mouth itched, she would never say bad things about Xu Jinhuan in front of others.

Only after Xu Jinhuan got a satisfactory answer did he take the dagger away from Madam Lin's face.

She looked at the bloody dagger in her hand, a trace of disgust flashed in her eyes, and she grabbed Madam Lin's skirt and wiped the dagger vigorously until it was as clean as new, then she stopped.

The people around didn't even dare to breathe. They were also frightened by the scene just now. They really didn't expect that Xu Jinhuan, who was quite amiable in the past, could have such a crazy side.

However, because the person who was injured was the annoying Madam Lin, no one thought that Xu Jinhuan did anything wrong.

After all, it was Madam Lin who started the trouble first, so she deserved to suffer.

Xu Jinhuan, who was being stared at by everyone, did not change his expression and was still smiling.

After looking around, she said gently, "Sometimes, if you mind your own business, you can live longer. Don't you agree?"
