Lin Mo and Su Mu are not the type to be attracted by mosquitoes, but there are so many mosquitoes flying around in the threshing ground. In the flickering firelight, Lin Mo has no idea how many times he has seen mosquitoes flying arrogantly in front of him.
Seeing that Lin Wen had slapped him countless times, Lin Mo could no longer sit still, so he took the others back home first.
Lin Sheng and Lin Wu were still excited. They gathered together with the villagers and chatted enthusiastically and with great interest.
Lao Gu also has his own circle. Lin Mo thought that he has been very busy recently and it is a rare opportunity for him to relax, so he was too lazy to call him.
After returning home, Su Mu was busy boiling water for everyone to wash. Lin Mo wanted to help, but Su Mu refused because he had just recovered from an illness. Looking at his appearance, people who didn't know him would think he was very delicate.
It gets dark early and the farmers don’t have many activities at night. In order to save lamp oil and firewood, they basically go to bed after washing up.
Lin Mo waited for Lin Sheng and the others. He had good hearing and heard Lao Gu and Lin Wu returning to their rooms, but he didn't hear Lin Sheng coming back for a long time. He frowned in worry.
Although Lin Sheng is their eldest brother, he is still a brother after all. Lin Mo thought about it and still felt uneasy, so he put on an outer coat and tiptoed out.
It wasn't too late at this time, probably around eight or nine o'clock, but it got dark early. When Lin Mo arrived at the threshing ground, the villagers had already dispersed, leaving only a few old men who were finishing up.
Lin Mo didn't get any news about Lin Sheng, so his heart sank and his face looked a little ugly. He looked around again in the moonlight.
The Lin family has been very popular recently. The family has money, and Lin Sheng is a good boy, so it is inevitable that some vicious thugs will have ideas about him.
Thinking about what might have happened to Lin Sheng, Lin Mo's face grew heavier. He moved quickly and searched several places. As the bright moonlight grew brighter and higher, he clenched his fists tighter.

"Brother Le, are you feeling better? If things really don't work, I'll go home and ask Amo and Xiaowu to help."
Lin Sheng looked at the limping Tang Le, and the worry on his face was beyond words. The road from the threshing ground to Tang Le's home was full of small slopes and bumps, and there were many stones on the road. He supported Tang Le all the way, which was very difficult.
But Tang Le was injured because he was saving him, and he felt embarrassed to leave him behind.
Lin Sheng wiped the sweat from his forehead and said with a slightly heavy breath, "I still have some leftover plasters from Ah Mo at home. How about I help you back to my house first and then take you home tomorrow?"
"No... no need. I'm almost home. Thank you for taking me back, Sheng'er. It's getting late. You should go back first. I can walk the rest of the way by myself."
Tang Le stuttered and didn't dare to breathe. The big hand he placed on Lin Sheng's shoulder was stiff and didn't dare to move. His whole back was tense. If it wasn't dark, Lin Sheng would have seen his flushed face by now.
He was almost at a loss of words, and after a long time of stuttering, he continued, "I have some medicine at home. I can go back and take it myself."
Lin Sheng sighed. From Tang Le's stuttering and forbearing voice, he understood that his foot was in so much pain that he was restraining himself from worrying him.
He complained in a grieving voice, "I told you it's okay. I'll go back after I send you home. If it weren't for me, you wouldn't have sprained your ankle."
"Let's go, we're almost there. I'll take you back to apply the medicine first."
Lin Sheng took a breath, gathered his strength, and continued to support Tang Le as he walked up the small slope ahead. Tang Le was tall and had a body full of muscular muscles, while Lin Sheng, a small boy with thin arms and legs, was basically enveloped in his arms.
Tang Le was afraid of hurting someone, so he didn't dare to put any force on Lin Sheng. Even so, Lin Sheng was still walking out of breath.
In fact, the pain in his foot was not serious. For him, a hunter who went up the mountain to hunt all year round, a sprained ankle was the lightest injury. When he fought with the wild wolves in the mountains, the flesh on his thighs was torn beyond recognition and his legs were almost bitten off, but he could still walk home by himself.
He was still carrying the wild wolf he had killed, but when Lin Sheng found out he had sprained his ankle, he said he would help him go home. At that moment, he didn't know what was wrong with him, but he let Lin Sheng hold his elbow, lean into his arms, and support him as he walked forward.
The person he longed for day and night was defenselessly close to his arms. He only needed to lower his head to kiss her soapy hair, and with just a little effort he could hug her whole body...
Tang Le was in a daze, with only a tense mind in his head. He knew that he should reject Lin Sheng's kindness. After all, he was an unmarried man, and he was a widower. It was neither reasonable nor moral for him to get too close to him.
But he couldn't control himself, and he couldn't utter a word of refusal even when he opened and closed his mouth. He was just greedily and secretly craving for this little bit of contact.
He likes Lin Sheng.
He has liked her for many years. He can't remember how long it has been since he came to Maolin Village. He only knows that this person has lived in his heart since then.
If he wasn't unworthy of her, he really wanted to marry Lin Sheng.
"What's wrong? Your feet hurt? Can't walk anymore?" Feeling Tang Le's stiffness and sighs, Lin Sheng looked up at him. The moonlight was not bright, so he could only vaguely see an outline and couldn't tell the emotions on his face.
But he could feel the other person's eyes staring at him intently.
Tang Le hurriedly turned around and subconsciously took two steps on his injured leg. The piercing pain made his face twisted and he couldn't help but gasp a few times. He explained in a panic, "It's okay. I just think the marriage that Mrs. Zhang told you about is okay."
