Chapter 150 Is she really the Lin family’s maid?
As soon as he finished speaking, they saw the whole picture of the Lin family courtyard. It was still full of jewels and treasures. The bonsai in the courtyard alone were made of exquisite porcelain, not to mention the glazed tiles that sparkled in the sun and the pearl curtains that could be seen everywhere under the eaves.
Sitting under the pearl curtain was a silver-haired woman. She was none other than Cheng Chaolan, the mistress of the Lin family. In just a few days, she had become visibly older. Although she was an old woman before, she looked energetic and her real age was almost unrecognizable.
At this time, she had spent so much energy that her hair was almost white.
Seeing Xie Zaozao, Cheng Chaolan's eyes darkened. Xie Zaozao now was completely different from the delicate little maid in the Lin Mansion. She looked quite calm and the child was also very talented. If she had known that this girl had such great potential, she should have let her son adopt her.
It's too late to say anything now.
Fu Yanzhi brought Xie Zao Zao to his side and asked, "If Madam Lin is okay, you can rest for a while. I will strengthen the barrier to ensure your safety."
Cheng Chaolan clutched her chest and pointed to the room inside: "I'm fine, but the people inside are not in good condition."
Inside were the people rescued from Pingliang City. Some of them came in early, so they were not seriously injured. Some of them had been attacked by demons or eroded by the fog outside, and they all had some symptoms of discomfort.
"There are currently 1,347 people hiding in my Lin family. There are also some villas outside the city, which are also guarded by Lin family mystics. I just don't know how many people are safe there."
Cheng Chaolan's face was filled with gloom. "It's only been a few years. I didn't expect them to make a comeback..."
Fu Yanzhi didn't delay: "I'll go see those people."
The people rescued by Cheng Chaolan were called out and stood in the yard. Everyone's face was filled with fear or fatigue. Some of these people had experienced the tragedy of the barrier collapse that year. Now they were scared out of their wits, fearing that the desperate situation of that day would happen again.
Some of them had wounds of varying sizes on their bodies due to erosion or attacks. Some had already rotted, and some were emitting black gas, and they looked not to be in good condition.
Fu Yanzhi frowned. There were too many injured people. If he took time to treat them, the crack in the barrier would probably continue to collapse. If he ignored it, the situation would be really serious.
Cheng Chaolan did give them some of the Lin family's elixirs, but without a mystic master to help activate the medicinal properties, more serious wounds would be difficult to heal.
Cheng Chaolan sent the rest of the mystics out to rescue people, and she had to maintain the barrier herself, so she couldn't take care of everyone and could only drag it on like this for the time being.
Fu Yanzhi was about to leave some medicine powder for them to heal themselves when he heard Xie Zaozao say, "Come, stand aside."
Fu Yanzhi didn't know what she was up to, so he stood aside. He saw her take out a ladle from her space, scoop up a ladle of water and pour it towards the crowd.
Some people subconsciously want to hide, but Xie Zaozao said, "If someone dodges, they die, no one cares. This is a medical condition, so don't hide. If you do, you deserve it."
No one dared to move.
Fu Yanzhi: ...
Xie Zao Zao started pouring water out one bucket at a time, but those people were standing there stupidly and stiffly, and many places could not be splashed. Xie Zao Zao frowned and said, "Why don't you move? Lift your arms and legs and take a deep breath."
The people looked at each other, and finally began to dance wildly, singing and dancing in front of Xie Zaozao.
It looked like a large-scale lightning strike scene.
These people had been living in fear for the past few days and were on the verge of mental breakdown. But now that Xie Zaozao had splashed water on them, they actually relaxed a lot. Moreover, when they saw that it was Mr. Fu who came to rescue them, their fear disappeared and they became excited.
"Come on, splash me, splash me—"
"Oh, I'm not completely wet, even my armpits are wet. I'll lift myself up and you can splash me—"
"How can it be so accurate? I haven't washed my face for three days. Please, fairy, splash water on my face. Thank you."
Fu Yanzhi: ...
Watching Xie Zao Zao wet these people like seedlings, just like watering flowers, he clapped his hands and said, "Okay, go back to sleep."
Everyone was having a great time dancing when they were suddenly stopped. It was quite disappointing. Although they were confused, they didn't dare to ask and just turned around and went back.
Fu Yanzhi: "...What did you splash?"
"Ah, the water I use to water the vegetables."
"What about the cabbage?"
Xie Zaozao: "Yeah, you like to eat a lot, don't you?"
Fu Yanzhi grabbed Xie Zaozao's wrist and said, "Throw it at me."
Xie Zao Zao: “Huh?”
Fu Yanzhi frowned and looked at Xie Zaozao, then unbuttoned his clothes.
Xie Zaozao: "...Don't do this, this is inappropriate, you are not my junior brother anymore."
Fu Yanzhi: "What are you talking about?"
He revealed a deep scar between his shoulder and chest. The scar was so deep that the bone was visible, the skin and flesh were rolled up, and it was filled with a thick black aura.
Xie Zao Zao could see that this was a medium injury. It was not an injury suffered by the person himself, but was related to something. If that thing was broken, the person would be broken.
Xie Zaozao didn't delay and poured water on Fu Yanzhi.
Wherever the spiritual spring water went, Fu Yanzhi's wounds began to improve significantly. They would heal a little after each application, but after healing to a certain extent, they would no longer heal.
Fu Yanzhi was just about to ask Xie to stop early and not waste such good things.
Xie Zao Zao lifted his arm and looked at him with big eyes: "Do you want to splash my armpit too?"
Fu Yanzhi: ...
Seeing that Xie Zaozao solved her headache so easily, Cheng Chaolan couldn't help feeling a little regretful and looked up at Xie Zaozao.
She was wearing an ordinary white shirt today, her hair was neatly tied in a ponytail, and the loose hair at her temples was braided into a few small pigtails. She wore a pair of pearl earrings, and her belt pinched her thin waist. Her plump little chest, big eyes, and smart and charming look.
I wondered if this child was really so good-looking back then?
At the beginning, Xie Zaozao was indeed the most beautiful maid in the Lin Mansion, but that kind of beauty only meant that she looked good and knew how to dress up. Her every move and gesture showed the petty and homely manner of a person from a small family, and she was not worthy of being on the stage.
Now it seems that Xie Zaozao can lead a sect if she is given one.
When he looked at the spiritual spring water she casually took out, he thought that Mr. Fu really loved her and gave her such a good thing.
This idea disappeared after Xie Zao Zao took out the Junhua Sword.
Who is Xie Zaozao? She's only been away from the Lin residence for a few months, and she can actually fly?
Fu Yanzhi noticed that she had been staring at Xie Zaozao. He stepped forward and stood between her and Xie Zaozao. "What does Madam Lin think of my wife?"
Cheng Chaolan came back to her senses and realized her own loss of composure. She quickly waved her hands, "No, no, no, Mr. Fu, please don't misunderstand me. It's just that I've changed a lot since leaving the Lin family so early, and I was a little slow to react."
As he spoke, he pulled out a jade pendant from his bosom and said sincerely, "This is something left by the Lin family's ancestors. It can block the invasion of evil spirits. Mr. and Mrs. have come here specifically for the Lin family, so we, the Lin family, must also show due sincerity."
Then, he hung the jade pendant around Xiao Xingsu's neck and said with a smile, "Let the child wear it."
"However, it is still very dangerous to repair the cracks. Mr. Fu, please leave the child behind. I will help you take care of him."
"No, you're so old now, you have to see the world." The Fu couple said in unison.
Little Xingsu, who is already four months old: "Hmph!!"
