Chapter 106 Someone Picked the Lock

"Wang Sanlai is the family with eight grandsons and one premature granddaughter."

Oh, so this is the one, Xu Lin remembered.

When talking about the premature granddaughter in the family, Xu Lin thought of goose stewed in an iron pot, which tasted absolutely amazing.

She was deeply impressed by the family who sent firewood and geese. They were not the kind of people who would take advantage of others.

Xu Lin never thought that there was an old hero in this family. No wonder the family tradition is so upright.

"Before he joined the army, he learned hunting from his father. He was good with a gun and an even better archer, and he made many contributions with this skill."

When Wang Facai mentioned Wang Erlai's story, his face was full of admiration and he couldn't help but talk more about it.

When Su Zhiqing was dragged out of the wolf's mouth by the villagers, he was so frightened that he was stunned and it took him a long time to recover.

By the time Su Zhiqing recovered, the villagers had already killed the four wild wolves together.

It was also at this time that they learned from Su Zhiqing that it was Qin Fang who brought him into the mountains.

In Qin Fang's words, they go into the mountains to look for game to improve their lives, and if they catch a lot, they can exchange it for some small money.

Although they are not at the end of their rope yet, the fact that the Su family no longer sends them money is a huge blow to Su Liang.

The little money Su Liang had was not enough for them to live on for a few months.

So Qin Fang took Su Liang into the mountains without much ado, and he almost died.

Qin Fang expressed her regret for this. She had not expected that the mountains were so dangerous. She would not have gone into the mountains if she had known earlier.

Seeing Qin Fang crying pitifully, Wang Facai and a group of village elders could not continue to blame her.

However, after rescuing the people, Qin Fang and Su Liang didn’t show any expression, which made the villagers feel a little unhappy.

Even when people in their village help each other, they will bring some vegetables or fruits to express their gratitude.

At the very least, one would give an egg or two as a thank-you gift to express one's gratitude.

As for whether to accept it or not, that is their business. You cannot fail to express your opinion. This is basic courtesy.

But looking at Qin Fang and Su Liang again, they didn't even say a nice word of thanks.

After returning to the Youth League Home, the two asked for leave because they were too frightened.

"Xu Zhiqing, don't learn from them. When they have no food to eat, they will cry. We don't learn from idiots."

"Thank you for the reminder, Captain. I won't learn from them." Xu Lin responded with a smile.

When in Rome, do as the Romans do. She doesn't want to be special.

Wang Facai was quite satisfied with Xu Lin's obedience. Look, they all had backers. Xu Lin was completely different from those two.

The two chatted all the way, and when they arrived at the village entrance, Wang Facai stopped to untie Xu Lin's luggage from the bicycle, and pushed the bicycle to leave.

Xu Lin smiled as she took out a bag of snacks and put them in the back seat of the car, then ran away with her luggage.

Wang Facai looked at the exquisite packaging and knew at first glance that this snack was not cheap.

If you want to chase Xu Lin, the little girl has already run far away.

I don’t know if it was his illusion, but it seemed that the little girl had gained some weight and her skin had also become a little whiter after being away for a few days.

Wang Facai was amused by his own thoughts. Even if a girl from the city was not favored, it was impossible for her to make herself dark in the city.

He must have been wrong.

Wang Facai put the snacks in his pocket and hurried home on his bicycle.

Xu Lin walked to the center of the village and saw Hu Zi and several other little kids playing crazily. When they saw Xu Lin, they happily ran over to greet her.

Don't underestimate the children because they are not stupid. They know that Xu Lin is generous and has a lot of candies in his hands.

Sure enough, when they approached and called out "Sister Xu", they received a piece of hard candy from Xu Lin.

Although it wasn't as delicious as White Rabbit, it was something they couldn't normally get their hands on, and the group of children were so happy that they were grinning from ear to ear.

After bidding farewell to a few children, Xu Lin walked for a while before arriving at the Youth League Home.

Sure enough, when the weather is cold, it is really not easy to meet a few villagers outside. It’s just that the children are not afraid of the cold and can run wildly.

After pushing open the door of the Youth League Home, Xu Lin looked around first, but did not see anyone moving around in the yard.

She listened again and heard only two steady breathing sounds coming from Qin Fang and Su Liang's rooms.

Wow, these two can actually sleep so late in the afternoon. I wonder if they can still sleep at night.

Thinking that the other educated youth might have gone to open up wasteland, Xu Lin didn't take the two of them seriously and went straight to the door of the room.

Just as she was about to take out the key to open the room, Xu Lin froze there, staring at the lock in her hand with a frown.

Her padlock had been pried open by someone, and the originally brand new padlock was now covered with several scratches of varying depths.

From these marks, it can be seen that the other party must have spent a long time prying the lock open. Unfortunately, his skills were not good enough and he failed to pry it open.

Xu Lin didn't rush to unlock the door, but looked at the door and window again.

The window was fastened from the inside, and although there were signs of being pushed in, there were no obvious prying marks.

There were quite a few scratches on the door frame, which made Xu Lin feel a little sorry for it.

But the other party would never have thought that she had pasted talismans on the door and windows before going out.

Without her special means to open the door, it would be impossible for the other party to break in.

As for who was interested in her room, Xu Lin didn't think much about it. It was probably just one or two people.

Xu Lin unlocked the door, carried her luggage into the room, and lit the kang. Even if she didn't sleep, she couldn't let others find out.

As the kang heated up, the cold air in the room began to recede and the temperature in the room slowly rose.

Xu Lin opened her luggage and began to pack, putting her clothes into the box, her shoes on the shoe rack, and her snacks into the cupboard.

After doing all this, Xu Lin entered the room, took a hot bath happily, and then lay down on the big bed refreshed.

She was really tired along the way.

Xu Lin was sleeping soundly this time and was woken up by someone knocking on the door outside.

Xu Lin rubbed her eyes and opened the door, only to find that it was Qian Li who knocked on the door. Seeing Xu Lin's sleepy face, Qian Li smiled happily.

"Linlin, when did you come back? If I hadn't noticed that your room door was not locked, I wouldn't have noticed you were back."

"I came back in the afternoon. Are you off work now?" Xu Lin yawned and raised her hand to look at her wrist.

Seeing this, Xu Lin exclaimed, "What a good fellow! It's already past six in the evening. No wonder it's so dark."

"Not only that, I've already had dinner. Are you hungry? How about I make you some more food?"

Just as Xu Lin was about to refuse, she saw Qin Fang open the door and stick her head out.

Seeing Xu Lin standing at the door and talking to Qian Li, she snorted, retracted her head, and slammed the door shut.

Qian Li rolled her eyes and gestured for her to go inside. Xu Lin didn't hesitate and invited her into the room.
