Unexpectedly, I saw an acquaintance, Xu San.
Lin Yin raised her eyebrows.
Perhaps it was the first time that Xu San took the initiative to say hello to a girl, so he was obviously not skilled and spoke haltingly. He didn't even know when his ears turned red.
"Is there anything I can help you with?" Lin Yin asked.
"Um..." Xu San hesitated for a moment before mumbling, "I just dug up a lot of sweet potatoes. I'll give you a few."
As he spoke, he quickly put the basket he was carrying on the ground and picked out the big one for Lin Yin.
Lin Yin's arms were stuffed full, and she was so confused that she couldn't react.
"This...you should take it back yourself."
As she said this, Lin Yin wanted to return the sweet potato in her hand to Xu San.
Xu San was afraid that she would put the things back into her basket, so his face changed drastically. He quickly put the basket on his back again and then took two steps back.
"Well... this is my way of thanking you. If you hadn't called me in time on the mountain, I would have fallen badly. And... thank you for bandaging me."
After saying so much in one breath, Xu San's face turned red and he ran away immediately in nervousness.
“…” Looking at his back, Lin Yin sighed helplessly.
He lowered his head and stared at the big sweet potatoes in his arms, and after thinking about it, he accepted them.
If I catch up with him and return it to Xu San now, I would seem pretentious.
Seeing that there was no one around, Lin Yin stuffed the sweet potato into the space, then patted her clothes and continued walking towards the village entrance.
The village is a long way from the town, and it would take two or three hours to walk there.
Adding the time spent coming back, most of the day was wasted on the road.
Lin Yin was confused, but she didn't expect to see Uncle Wang after walking a distance away from the village.
"Ms. Lin Yin!" Uncle Wang was a little bit unbelievable when he saw Lin Yin, but after confirming that it was her, he immediately ran over in surprise.
"Ms. Lin Yin, it really is you!"
"Uncle Wang?"
Uncle Wang nodded quickly: "Yes, yes."
"Why are you here?"
Uncle Wang scratched his head embarrassedly and chuckled, "Miss Lin, you and our young master have an appointment, so Uncle Wang is here to pick you up."
Lin Yin: “???” Meow meow meow?
"But Uncle Wang was afraid of causing trouble for Miss Lin, so he was still thinking about how to get into the village to find you. He didn't expect you to come out."
The villagers have been friends for decades and know each other well. If a stranger suddenly enters the village, it will definitely attract everyone's attention.
Although Uncle Wang was just a servant, he was dressed neatly and looked very tidy. He didn't look like a country boy at first glance.
If Uncle Wang rashly went to find Lin Yin, the news that Lin Yin hooked up with a rich man would probably spread throughout the village in no time. If some ill-intentioned people spread rumors maliciously...
Rural women are the hardest to shut up.
Therefore, when Uncle Wang and Huo Yichen went to the mountains, they acted in secret and tried their best to avoid contact with the villagers.
Lin Yin naturally knew the concerns, and she smiled and nodded: "Thank you, Uncle Wang."
Fortunately, Uncle Wang was careful. If he had come directly into the village to find me, based on how much Shen Hongyan hated me, I guess as soon as I left with Uncle Wang, Shen Hongyan would have spread a rumor saying, "Lin Yin is a young woman but a seductress. I don't know when she seduced a rich, old man outside."
"Miss Lin, are you going out?"
