Chapter 13 You vicious woman! You actually wanted to kill my grandma!
Because I wasted a day in Fengyang County yesterday, I have to travel two days today.
Walking on the freezing road, the Lin family, young and old, were shivering with cold.
Fortunately, Lin Xiyan prepared a cotton jacket, so they walked relatively easily.
Lin Wuyu looked at the slowly decreasing snow and said:
"Once we reach Zhuyang, it won't be so cold anymore. Once we cross the river, we'll be in the south."
Jiang Moyu couldn't help but feel distressed when he saw Lin Xiyan walking in the snow, so he pulled the BMW over.
"Xi'er, come up and sit down?"
"Okay." Lin Xiyan happily got on the horse.
The fat yamen runner just turned a blind eye when he saw her get on the horse.
When Lin Yiqing saw this scene, she couldn't help but clench her fists.
Why?! Everyone is surrounding Lin Xiyan. What kind of magic potion did she use?
"Lin Xiyan is a slut, Brother Mo Yu, don't let her fool you!"
Jiang Moyu turned around, his handsome brows slightly frowned.
What is this woman going to do?
"Brother Mo Yu, don't be fooled by her harmless appearance. In fact, she's doing some shameful things in private, and she's been dealing with the yamen runners."
Lin Yiqing pointed at Lin Xiyan angrily.
Jiang Moyu just found it funny.
If he hadn't seen the fat yamen runner treat her with such respect, he would have almost believed it.
Lin Xiyan looked down at Lin Yiqing from behind and found her desperate look really funny.
It seemed as if he couldn't wait to pull her off the horse and sit on it himself.
It seems that this woman is itching to do something again.
"Their entire family is a disgrace to our Lin family!"
Lin Yiqing's eyes turned red, and her mother and brother also came over.
Lin Xiyan just looked at them with a smile.
These people are weak by nature, just like dodder, they can only live by following trends all their lives, sucking the blood of the eldest branch of the Lin family.
Now that we have no big tree, we live worse than dogs.
The Lin family members in the team just stared at Lin Xiyan, who was riding the horse freely and unrestrainedly, with red eyes, feeling unfair.
All his belongings had been looted, and even his dignity was wantonly trampled upon on the road to exile.
How could she, the culprit, live so comfortably by using such dirty tricks!
Some of his family members froze to death, and some starved to death.
Some were even lying on stretchers, dying with only one breath left, and were carried away by their families.
Lin Xiyan couldn't help but tremble when she saw the malicious eyes of the people around her.
The Lin family has had a miserable journey. From the original 52 people, there are only 43 left now. It's really pitiful.
What's more, this house-confiscation disaster was caused by my father, and I suddenly felt a little guilty.
These people were filled with anger, and Lin Xiyan was afraid that they would cause trouble again when they arrived at the place of exile, so she came up with a plan.
She narrowed her eyes slightly and spoke slowly:
"My dear officials, the eldest branch of the Lin family has hidden a huge sum of money in Zhuyang."
"If you gentlemen can treat my Lin family well and safely escort my Lin clan to the southern wilderness, then my eldest branch of the Lin family will offer all the treasures to you."
Lin Wuyu couldn't help but wonder, when did I leave any property in Zhuyang?
I was completely unaware of it.
Upon hearing this, the yamen runners' eyes sparkled: "How much treasure is there?"
"Just a few boxes of jewelry." Lin Xiyan said calmly.
"It's just what the little girl said. Is there anyone who really believes it?"
Seeing that the anger of the Lin family members gradually subsided, Lin Yiqing questioned.
"Hahaha, you don't allow others to have things that your second branch doesn't have? You're really hopeless!"
Lin Xiyan spoke sternly.
"Hmph, so what if we don't have any? At least the money we have is clean. Who is like you, the eldest wife? You make money by doing shady things!"
Lin Xiyan just found it funny. Could it be that their second branch was something good?
The yamen runners were indeed moved after hearing this. They looked at Lin Xiyan and then at Lin Wuyu.
The amount of money Lin Wuyou embezzled was huge. Perhaps he had dispersed part of the treasure and hidden it in various places.
If we find them all and they belong to us, wouldn’t we be rich?
"You'd better not lie to me, otherwise you will be in trouble!" The thin yamen runner said to Lin Xiyan ferociously.
Arrived at the post station along the way.
The yamen runners actually distributed rice and some vegetables to the remaining 56 members of the Lin family.
Although the four members of the second branch of the Lin family spoke ill of the first branch of the Lin family, after seeing the meals distributed today.
His eyes suddenly lit up, and he was the first to rush forward to grab it.
The rest of the people ate their vegetables and expressed their gratitude to Lin Xiyan.
Only the thin yamen runner looked at Lin Xiyan fiercely:
"When we get to Zhuyang tomorrow, if I find out you're playing tricks on me, then today will be your last good meal!"
"Don't worry, sir, how could I play tricks on you?" Lin Xiyan blinked.
Jiang Moyu watched Lin Xiyan from the side, wondering what new ideas she had.
At night, the Lin family finally had a good sleep.
"You've become so weak from sleeping so much!"
The yamen runners woke up the sleeping Lin family members and set off on their journey before dawn.
"Everyone, get up and get going. We'll be in Zhuyang by noon today!"
The further south you go, the less snow there is on the roadside.
In order to speed up his journey, the thin yamen runner decided to go through the mountains since the weather was clear, which would shorten the journey by half a day.
The mountains and hills in the south are full of miasma and the land is moist.
Everyone was very happy to see a usable water source at the foot of the mountain. They filled their water bags and hiked up.
Lin Xiyan looked at the forest and felt a sense of unease. She looked around vigilantly.
Jiang Moyu was walking in the team, leading the horse, and Lin Yiqing kept talking to him.
"Sir, this desolate mountain area is probably full of dangers. In my opinion, we'd better take the official road." Lin Xiyan said to the fat yamen runner with a hint of worry.
"It's okay. Many people have walked this mountain road. Although it's more dangerous than the official road, it can reduce the walking distance by half."
"How long will it take to get back to the official road?"
"We can cross these hills in an hour."
Lin Xiyan's heart tightened after hearing this. She died in the wilderness in her previous life and knew very well how terrible these places were!
If she were alone, she could escape at any time.
But now I have five people to worry about, so I can only pray that I can get through this hour safely.
When Lin Yiqing heard this, she hurried forward and said with a smile:
"Coward, what's there to be afraid of? The officers all carry swords, and we are many in number. How could we be afraid of some ferocious beast?"
"idiot."
Lin Xiyan cursed under her breath, then quickly returned to her family.
She gathered the six people together and said seriously:
"Father and Mother, I think there's a thin mist in the forest. We must be careful!"
Seeing his daughter's worried face, Lin Wuyu couldn't help but worry: "What should I do?"
"Remember to cover your mouth and nose with this cloth, don't take it off!" Lin Xiyan said seriously.
"Okay, then I'll follow Xier's instructions!"
Just as Lin Xiyan expected, the temperature got higher and higher as they walked forward.
The mist became heavier and heavier, condensing together to form miasma.
