"After walking for so many days, we've finally made it out!"
The moment they returned to the official road, Lin Xue couldn't help but want to cheer.
It wasn't that she disliked walking on mountain paths, but rather that once they emerged from the mountain paths, it meant they had entered Quanzhou territory. Here, they could replenish their supplies and wouldn't have to endure the hardships of the past.
"Liu Zhi, take some men to the village ahead and scout it out. If everything's alright, we'll stay there tonight!"
Liu Muchen wiped the sweat from his brow. The handsome man with fair skin and a beautiful face had not changed despite his travels over the past few days.
Her skin was still as fair as when they first met, and Lin Xue was so envious that she wanted to reach out and pinch it a couple of times!
How could a man have such perfect skin without using cosmetics or taking special care of himself?
She washes her old face with spiritual spring water every day and uses it to regulate her internal system, but all she has done is reduce the number of wrinkles.
The truth is still quite dark, which makes Lin Xue feel really bad!
"Ah Xue, this is for you!"
Just as Lin Xue was secretly sulking, a bouquet of flowers appeared in front of her.
Achoo!
Lin Xue's nose itched from the sudden rush of pollen, and she unceremoniously let out a loud sneeze.
"It seems this flower is incompatible with your birth chart, you should just throw it away!"
Upon seeing Lin Xue sneeze, Liu Muchen immediately threw the flowers in his hand away.
"Hey, I'm not..."
Lin Xue was about to say that she wasn't allergic to pollen, but was simply choked by it.
But look, that bouquet of flowers has already been thrown away, so what's the point of saying anything?
"never mind!"
I rubbed my nose and took a few deep breaths to get rid of the sour smell coming from it.
"Ah Xue, stop looking!"
"I'll pick even prettier ones for you next time!"
Seeing Lin Xue staring at the flowers on the ground, Liu Muchen felt a pang of guilt.
But the flower made Ah Xue sneeze, so she absolutely couldn't keep it.
During this time, everyone noticed that Lin Xue had a particular fondness for pretty flowers and plants. From the two little kids to the guards of the Li brothers and Liu Muchen, everyone would pick any pretty flowers they saw and give them to Lin Xue to play with.
Therefore, Liu Muchen's actions were not so abrupt, nor did others feel that his behavior was inappropriate.
"Okay, next time you want double the flowers!"
Lin Xue squinted. Sometimes she didn't understand why her own child was so obedient to her, but why did Master Liu and his group also spoil her so much?
Is it because she is the oldest little lady in the group that she receives preferential treatment?
Liu Zhi was one thing, but he was a clingy person who followed her around every day, asking her to teach him how to hunt.
Even though his eyesight is better, why is it that Lin Xue always finds the prey, while those of them who consider themselves to be good at martial arts always miss out on it?
Lin Xue couldn't possibly say that a big reason for this was because she had a cheat code called "extremely lucky".
Based on their memories from their previous lives, they can only teach them how to observe the subtle signs of animals in the forest, the animal droppings hidden under weeds and tree roots, and how to tell how long an animal has been gone by the dryness or wetness of its droppings.
How to find pheasant tracks, what are the differences between catching rabbits and catching pheasants, and so on.
...
"Master, Auntie!"
"The village ahead is fine. I've already rented a courtyard from the village chief as our lodging for tonight!"
When Liu Zhi returned, he was accompanied by a middle-aged, beardless man.
In this day and age, it is rare to see a village chief of this age without a beard.
Lin Xue couldn't help but glance at it a couple more times!
After exchanging words with Master Liu, the man seemed to have reached some kind of deal, and then led everyone toward the village.
“This courtyard belongs to my relatives. They all went to town to do business, so it has been empty. Now I am renting it to you, and I hope you will take good care of it!”
The village chief led everyone to a courtyard, which was better than the other houses in the village.
There are enough rooms: five main rooms and two side rooms on each side.
There's also a gatehouse and two storage rooms built on this side of the courtyard.
The courtyard was also very spacious, clearly belonging to a wealthy family.
"Village chief, rest assured, we will restore it to its original state when we left, just as it was when we arrived!"
These matters were discussed between Master Liu and the village chief, while the others stood aside without saying a word.
When a team is facing outsiders, it only needs one person to make a decision.
Lin Xue and her group did not contribute any money this time, so they stood in the crowd without any intention of standing out.
"Ah Xue, the two of us will stay in these two rooms on the east side, and the two rooms on the west side will be for your children! My guards will have them stay in the four side rooms!"
Liu Muchen stood in the courtyard and looked around for a while, then discussed it with Lin Xue.
"Everything is up to Brother Liu!"
Although Lin Xue felt a little embarrassed, her family occupied three rooms!
But it's not good to be so particular when you're out and about. After all, she has two daughters-in-law and three sons, so she needs at least two rooms.
She had considered having herself and her two daughters-in-law share a room, while her sons shared another.
But there are two children besides the adults here, so it's a bit too crowded.
Seeing that the guards had no objections, Lin Xue suppressed the urge to speak.
Why should you turn away someone who's making things convenient for you?
At worst, we can go back to the mountains and hunt a couple more animals so everyone can have a good meal.
The thought of eating meat calmed Lin Xue's uneasy heart.
