Chapter 565 Who doesn’t have some troubles in life?
"Why don't you burn this bastard to death? Why keep him alive?"
"Keep your voice down. Aren't you afraid of retaliation if someone hears you?"
"What are you afraid of? The Song family is suffering retribution, so why should we be afraid of them? I'm telling you, I've found out everything. The Song Qiaoshan family's fire started inexplicably, and the fire spread all the way there, but no one saw how it started. Tell me, is this a punishment from heaven, a retribution?"
"Damn it, this must be retribution for the Song family's many evil deeds."
…
Looking at the raging fire in front of them, the people of Anhe Town were talking non-stop, but no one wanted to go up to help put out the fire. Some of them were more gloating.
The carriage that Lin Mo and the others were riding in also passed by at this time.
Looking at the still burning house, Lin Mo grinned, thinking it was really fire-resistant.
Two hours have passed and it's still not finished burning.
But the fire monster was so warm that Lin Mo narrowed his eyes comfortably.
Qinglian, who was sitting outside the carriage, took a look and then looked away with a look of disdain. "Good job! It would be even better if those scum of the Song family were burned together."
Without these demons from the Song family, the world would be a cleaner place.
Qi Zhengfei next to her glanced at her and lowered his voice:
“Be careful, the walls have ears.
This is the Song family's territory. If someone hears what you say here, it might cause trouble for the young lady. Be careful with your words."
Qi Zhengfei has seen a lot of the world, and he knows very well that anything can happen when you go out.
Sometimes a word you say unintentionally can bring you fatal disaster.
So when you are out, talk less and don't meddle in other people's business, and you won't make mistakes.
Qinglian nodded, "Yes, I understand."
Qi Zhengfei glanced at her and said, "Just don't think I'm meddling in your business."
"Brother Qi, look at what you said. Am I the kind of person who can't tell good from bad?" Qinglian shook her head, "Don't worry, I won't be angry.
I was just so angry that I couldn't hold it in.
You're right, I'll remember that."
After she said that, Qi Zhengfei became embarrassed. "Well, maybe I'm just worrying too much."
"No, Brother Qi, you are right to remind me." Qinglian shook his head seriously.
I was indeed too talkative just now. I didn't consider anything else and just followed my heart.
Gossip can easily cause trouble.
If the young lady's whereabouts were exposed because of this, I would really deserve to die.
Putting away the sympathy that he shouldn't have, Qinglian secretly warned himself.
"That's enough, you two." Lin Mo shook his head.
"Don't worry, no one will notice us now."
To the people in Anhe Town, they are just passers-by. Who would pay attention to what passers-by say or do?
What's more, the Song family has such a big melon waiting for them to eat, who would care what people passing by say?
Lin Mo reached out and pushed open the carriage, admiring the fire source that was getting farther and farther away from her and smaller and smaller, and the corners of her mouth curled up.
The Song family?
Sooner or later, I will be crushed to pieces!
At this time, they were the only group of people on the road, moving slowly forward in the snow.
In a blink of an eye, it was noon of the next day.
Lin Mo separated from Qi Zhenghuan near Qinghe City.
Qi Zhenghuan had no intention of entering Qinghe City.
Qinghe City is the territory of the Song family, and he has a grudge against the Song family. If he swaggers into Qinghe City, he will probably walk in and lie down.
So, he doesn't take the risk.
"Madam Xu, are you sure you really want to go in?" Qi Zhenghuan sighed. After seeing her nod, he took out a token from his pocket.
"Take this token. If you really get into trouble and can't get away, take this token to find my people. My Qi family has left a team of people in Qinghe City. When they see the token, they will find a way to escort you out of the city safely."
Having said this, he glanced at Qi Zhengfei, who was sitting on the shaft of the carriage and gazing into the distance, and shook his head:
"As for how to find them, Qi Zhengfei knows. When you need someone, just ask him to use the token to get them."
Lin Mo raised an eyebrow, "Is there such a good thing?
The Qi family master is very generous."
After saying that, she took the token without hesitation and said, "Thank you."
It would be a waste not to take it, what if you need it?
Things in the world are constantly changing, and no one can predict when things will change.
So it's an extra layer of protection, and no one will refuse it.
Qi Zhenghuan chuckled, "Of course, I still have to hold your thick thighs, and naturally I can't watch you get into trouble, take care."
After saying goodbye to Lin Mo, Qi Zhenghuan took his men away.
There are still things waiting for him to deal with at the Qi family, and he doesn't have that much time to spend on this.
Not long after they walked out, Qi Zhenghuan's confidant came forward:
"Someone from the Patriarch is secretly following us? Should we kill them or find a way to get rid of them?"
“Kill him!”
…
"Qi Zhengfei, are you sure you don't want to say goodbye when someone leaves?" Lin Mo asked.
"That's not necessary." Qi Zhengfei said with a cold face, tightening his grip on the reins of the carriage.
"Young Madam, it's getting late. We should go into the city."
Lin Mo shrugged and said nothing more.
Don’t experience other people’s suffering, and don’t advise others to do good.
So, Qi Zhengfei refused, and Lin Mo naturally wouldn't say anything more or try to persuade him anymore.
If you meddle in other people's business any more, you'll make people unhappy.
After Qi Zhengfei got on the carriage, he immediately drove it towards Qinghe City.
After a while, Qi Zhengfei said sullenly:
"I am the illegitimate son of Qi Zhenghuan's uncle, but I was expelled from the Qi family tree, so I have no relationship with the Qi family anymore."
So this is another bloody story about a wealthy family.
Lin Mo nodded, "Yeah, it's okay, it's over.
You may not have the chance to see each other again in the future, so the most important thing is to live your own life well.
Who doesn’t have some troubles in life?”
Lin Mo raised an eyebrow, "Do you know that I was a bride for someone else before?
Then I was treated like a commodity by the Shen family and married to Old Xu. These experiences are terrible enough.
But I want to say that looking forward, the future is under our own feet."
Qi Zhengfei was amused by Lin Mo's self-exposure comfort.
He nodded, his face serious, "You are right, Madam, everyone has troubles in life.
Only after experiencing hardships will you cherish your present life.
I’m lucky to have met the young lady in my life…”
"Stop!" Lin Mo said disgustedly, "Here we go again.
We are helping each other and benefiting each other. No one owes anyone anything. I can't stand you saying thank you all the time. You don't get tired of saying it, but my ears are getting calluses from hearing it."
Qi Zhengfei smiled, "Okay, I won't say it anymore."
Some things are better left in your heart.
At this moment, Qi Zhengfei noticed Xu Qing standing in front of him, "Young Madam, it's Xu Qing."
Qi Zhengfei drove the horse a little faster, but stopped the carriage when he was not far from Xu Qing.
Xu Qing walked over and said respectfully, "Young Madam."
Seeing the snow on his hat and clothes, Lin Mo shook her head, "Didn't I tell you not to come out to pick me up? You're clearly asking for trouble."
As he said that, he let Qinglian in and handed him a still hot hand warmer.
Xu Qing sat where Qinglian had sat before, holding his hand warmer and grinning foolishly, "I don't feel it's hard. It's my duty to wait for the young lady."
"Because of the snow, the roads were difficult to walk on, and we were late for quite a while." Lin Mo shook her head. "Did you come out to wait this morning? Look at your clothes and hat, they're almost frozen into lumps of ice."
Xu Qing nodded. "It doesn't matter, as long as the young lady is safe and sound."
Having said that, Xu Qing paused:
"Young Madam, you guys are from Anhe Town, right? You know that a house of the Song family in Anhe Town was burned down."
According to the time, the young lady and her family were staying in Anhe Town when the fire broke out.
After seeing them nod, Xu Qing said with a serious face:
"Then the people the Song family wants to capture may be you."
Lin Mo was stunned. "Catch us? Why?"
Did she show her true colors?
It shouldn't be.
"Because the Song family's house was burned down." Xu Qing said seriously:
"I've investigated. There's a rumor going around that the Song family was punished by heaven. To get rid of it, the Song family said it was you who set the fire, and they're sending people looking for you everywhere.
There are people checking at the city gate, so you can’t say you came from Anhe Town later.”
Qi Zhengfei curled his lips, "This Song family is really shameless.
Don’t they think they can clean themselves up this way?”
Xu Qing sneered, "The Song family has done so many shameless things, but because the Song family is so powerful, people dare not speak out.
The most important thing is that the Xu family has hidden a private army of 5,000 people nearby. You dare not say anything. If you dare to say a word, your whole family, no, I should say your ancestors for eighteen generations, will be exposed in the next second.
So they said it was you who set the fire, and it wasn't some kind of divine punishment, and no one dared to refute it."
Under such strong pressure, who dares to say no?
Say that life is too long.
There was a hint of coldness in Lin Mo's eyes. It seemed that the Song family made those medicines in order to transform the 5,000 elite soldiers into an invincible cavalry.
Honestly speaking, if the Song family achieves their goal, these 5,000 private soldiers alone will be enough to overturn the corrupt dynasty.
Lin Mo looked up. "Where are their private soldiers hiding? And where are their brothels? Have you found out about them?"
Xu Qing nodded, "The brothel is just outside the city, but not through this city gate, but through another one.
And I haven't found the address where their private soldiers are hiding.
I also stumbled upon this news the day before yesterday, and I've just sent someone to inquire about it, but there's been no feedback yet."
At this point, Xu Qing smiled bitterly, "Qinghe City is full of Song family minions, it's not easy to get information.
As soon as you open your mouth, these people will be very cautious and say nothing, so there has been no progress yet. However, not many people know about the private soldiers. "
"To hide five thousand people, they'd have to go somewhere deep in the mountains where no one goes," Qi Zhengfei said. "Considering the gold-selling cave, I think these five thousand people should be hiding in the mountains near the cave, not too far away."
