Chapter 2171 [Extra] Rough Male Slave VS Sickly Slave Owner (16)
The victorious general, full of high spirits, held the reins tightly and rode his tall horse, turning his head to look at the trembling young master in the dilapidated room.
Her glassy eyes froze for only a moment before being filled with heartache, and she quickly dismounted.
Although the land grabbing efforts of manor lords have been affected to some extent over the years, even now, Vision Manor still has more than 3,000 acres left, so it is not too much of a decline.
What are these servants good for?
He was given money and land, yet in the pouring rain, he was left alone to guard this dilapidated room.
Seeing Lin Yuan's expression, Xiao Yao knew that she was superfluous again.
Sigh, it can't learn the intricate tricks of a seductive beauty; it'd better go to the dark room first.
In the pouring rain, Lin Yuan strode forward quickly, his boots splattered with dirty water.
However, when she came to Si Jin, she still maintained her old habit of walking very lightly.
The delicate young master's hair was wet, and raindrops were falling from his long eyelashes. The nearly faded cotton quilt made him curl up into a ball, shivering, as if he was in great pain and waiting for some kind of relief.
The war was too intense. After five years apart, how much suffering had he endured as a young man?
"Young Master..."
As soon as he uttered those words, Lin Yuan's eyes turned red.
Despite his meteoric rise in rank, he still used the same honorific he had used five years ago when speaking to Si Jin.
But the young master jolted awake, staring blankly at his head, seemingly unable to believe that he would return. Even the words that escaped his lips were: "General...General..."
Those two simple words were like sharp arrows, almost piercing Lin Yuan's heart.
He didn't care about anything else and immediately picked up Si Jin, shielding him from the rain as they walked forward.
Once Si Jin's breathing had calmed down, she asked in a low voice, "Which room do you usually stay in?"
Si Jin pointed to a room, and Lin Yuan quickly ran over and carried her into the room. Before she could even take off her armor, she went to the bathroom to run hot water.
Fortunately, the maid in the hot water room was quite attentive, and the water temperature was just right for him to hold Si Jin and wash up properly.
After removing the steel armor from his wristband, Lin Yuan half-squatted down outside the bathtub, raised his hand, and was about to brush away the stray hairs from Si Jin's temple when he realized that his hands had developed many more thick calluses.
Not only are there calluses, but also many tiny scars.
These are all medals earned little by little from wielding swords and fighting enemies, escaping death by the skin of their teeth; they were originally the badges of honor for warriors.
But the delicate young master couldn't even withstand the thin calluses he had from working a few years ago, and now...
Just as he was hesitating, he saw Si Jin grasp his hands with both of them, like a wounded cat, turning her head to rub against his palm affectionately.
After an unknown amount of time, he suddenly burst out laughing: "I thought you would never come back. People like you are just naturally annoying... cough... annoying us landowners."
"I hate them, but I don't hate the young master."
"Is that so?" Si Jin was clearly exhausted, looking sickly and as if she would collapse at the slightest push, yet she remained defiant and breathless.
He continued, "Did you bring the troops back?"
"have."
"Kill me?"
"No, I'll marry you."
Actually, what Lin Yuan wanted to say was "I'll marry you." After all, they were two men, and in the eyes of a rough man like him, there was no difference between marriage and being married.
But fearing that the proud young master would mind, she naturally changed the way she addressed him, making it more suitable for confessing her feelings.
But Si Jin clearly didn't appreciate it. She rubbed against Lin Yuan's hand, and her desire to be caressed was slightly relieved. Then she decisively pushed him away and fell backward into the bathtub.
“But someone like me deserves to be criticized. I’ll prevent you from becoming a general. You should… um…”
