The meal ended in a bad mood.
Back in the house, Lin's mother complained to Lin's father, "As expected, if you don't keep her by your side, she won't be close to us. Look, how can you treat your own sisters like this?"
Father Lin was impatient with these things and started snoring soon after lying on the bed.
"How terrible!" Lin's mother was so angry that she slapped Lin's father a few times, but he was sleeping soundly.
She stared at the dark tent ceiling with her eyes open, tossing and turning, unable to fall asleep, wondering how someone with such an unpleasant temper like Lin Rou could live so well in the Fu family.
Now she is with the second young master of the Fu family... Her Xiang'er is so good, if it were her, wouldn't she be more favored than Lin Rou?
The more I thought about it, the more feasible it seemed. For a moment, I was so excited that I couldn't sleep.
Early the next morning, Lin's mother got up and went to her eldest daughter's yard to find out what was going on. She didn't even bother to hide her feelings and directly asked Xihe if she could bring Lin Xiang into the house.
Xihe laughed when he heard it.
"If mother wants my sister to marry into the family, she can go and talk to my aunt herself. I can't make the decision."
Mother Lin was anxious: "You have been in the Fu family for so many years, why can't you speak for your sister?"
"mother."
The girl sighed quietly, "I'm just a cousin in the Fu family, how can I have a say? Otherwise, I wouldn't have to go to such great lengths to get close to Fu Yu."
Mother Lin thought about it and realized that this borderland was not a bad place to go. She heard that those barbarians killed people like slaughtering dogs. Just hearing about it was terrifying.
Since Lin Rou has made up her mind to do so next time, there seems to be nothing we can do.
She asked again: "When are you going to leave?"
Seeing Xihe looking at her in surprise, she blushed and said, "It's not that I want to rush you, but I heard that the barbarians come more frequently in winter. Since you have decided to go, it's better to go earlier than later."
If he loses his life, wouldn’t all his efforts be in vain?
Xihe nodded: "I will leave after the Fu family's guards leave."
The Mid-Autumn Festival is about half a month away. If she sets off now, if she travels quickly, she can still spend the Mid-Autumn Festival with Fu Yu. If she travels slowly, she will have to spend the Mid-Autumn Festival on the road.
"Okay, then mother will go prepare something for you."
Lin's father is a good businessman and has made a lot of money, so Lin's mother is not stingy when it comes to such things.
The next day, the Fu family's guards came to say goodbye to Xihe: "Take care, cousin. I will come to pick you up next spring."
Young Master Fu asked him to say this to give Lin Rou some peace of mind.
Xihe nodded: "Rou'er understands, Cheng, be careful on the road."
Guard Cheng nodded and said goodbye to Lin's father. He came in a heavy carriage and left with several boxes of gifts from the Lin family.
After they left, Lin's mother took Xihe out on the pretext that she had been away from home for many years and had never seen her grandmother.
Lin Xiang was so angry that her face swelled up like a pufferfish because Lin Chen and his sister were not brought along on this trip.
She thought sadly in her heart that even her mother who loved her the most didn't take her with her after Lin Rou came back. The more she thought about it, the angrier she became. With fire in her eyes, she ran back to the house and smashed things all over the floor.
The maids and nannies were so frightened that they shrank at the door and dared not go in.
A few days later, Lin's mother returned, but Lin Rou was nowhere to be found. "Your grandmother fell in love with Rou'er the moment she saw her, and she couldn't bear to let her go. Your sister is a filial daughter, so she decided to stay over there to keep her company and entertain her."
Lin Xiang was shocked. Even her grandmother who loved her the most had changed her mind!
Pushing the tea set aside, the little girl's face was filled with tears. "Hate it, hate it, you all like Lin Rou and don't like me. I don't want to like you anymore."
After saying that, he ran out.
On the other side, a carriage came out of the city gate and headed towards the border.
