Xie Muqing couldn't help but roll her eyes.
Since being exiled here.
He felt that his temper had improved a lot.
If we were still in the capital.
He had already kicked them out!
He even wanted to crack open Lin Xinghua's skull to see what was inside!
Is brain matter a pile of paste?
"Lin Xinghua, I don't know where you heard that from, but let me tell you, not all men in the capital have multiple wives and concubines. Besides, I'm a commoner now, and I'm not allowed to have multiple wives and concubines. Also, you should know that I'm now a son-in-law, a kept man. You want me to have multiple wives and concubines? And serve me? Do you want me to be killed by my wife sooner, or imprisoned by the county magistrate? Are you so eager for me to suffer?"
"I'm sorry, I didn't know, I just like you, sob sob..."
Lin Xinghua truly loves Xie Muqing.
Even if he is now a commoner, disabled, or may not live much longer.
She still loved it to bits.
"Lots of people like me, but am I obligated to like them all? Get out of my house now!"
Since his exile, Xie Muqing's arrogance has largely faded.
But he lived a life of luxury and being pampered for eighteen years.
When speaking, it's inevitable to consider the feelings of others.
He's so blatantly kicking people out.
Lin Xinghua was too ashamed to stay any longer and suffer further humiliation, so she covered her face, cried, and ran away.
After she left, Lin Muyan went to close the courtyard gate.
When he returned, his gaze remained fixed on the person who was intently peeling peanuts.
Xie Muqing felt uncomfortable being stared at.
He couldn't help but put down the peanuts in his hand, and looked up at him with a hint of doubt in his heart:
"Little brother, why are you staring at me like that?"
"Brother-in-law, Sister Xinghua just said she also wants to be your wife. If you become rich in the future, will you marry several wives?"
"Cough cough cough, little kid, don't listen to those people's nonsense. There are plenty of men in the capital who only marry one wife. My father only had one woman, my mother. Our Xie family was once a prestigious family. A man can only take a concubine if he has no offspring by the age of forty. Besides, I am now marrying into your Lin family. What kind of son-in-law can have three wives and four concubines?"
Xie Muqing really wanted to tell him,
Your eldest sister would probably have three husbands and four concubines.
Of course, he wouldn't be foolish enough to say these things in front of him.
Otherwise, when that woman comes back, he'll definitely complain to her!
That audacious woman.
They might actually find him a few good "brothers"!
He didn't want a power struggle to unfold in this small mountain village!
That night.
Lin Yan spent the night in the cave...
Fortunately, she used to camp outdoors often and was already used to the howls of wild animals in the deep mountains at night.
Although no prey has been caught yet.
However, she did manage to dig up two fairly old wild ginseng plants, so her day's work wasn't entirely in vain.
The next morning.
Lin Yan was awakened by the chirping of birds outside the cave.
In the deep mountains of September, the morning dew is heavy and the air is quite chilly.
Meat pies shouldn't be eaten cold.
She lit a fire, roasted the food again, ate two pieces, drank some water, and then set off once more.
Not long after leaving the cave, a deep and distant howling sound came from not far away. Lin Yan quietly followed the sound.
The scene before her eyes intrigued her.
It turned out to be two adult male red deer fighting over mating rights to a female deer nearby.
Their antlers were tightly intertwined, and it was difficult to determine the winner for a while.
Lin Yan was extremely envious of the two pairs of newly grown antlers on their heads...
Taking advantage of their inattention, she carefully crept over!
The two male deer were startled when they saw her.
It howled loudly.
Unfortunately, their antlers became entangled, preventing them from separating for the time being.
Lin Yan smiled, which suited her perfectly!
The sharp dagger emitted a dazzling white light under the sunlight.
The two stags barely blinked before their antlers were suddenly cut off!
The antlers that used to entangle them were gone.
The two stags temporarily put aside their hostility and collectively focused their firepower on the humans!
Bucks are large in size.
Each one weighs three or four hundred pounds.
If you are hit or trampled by them, you may die instantly.
Lin Yan wasn't going to be so foolish as to wait in place. After cutting off the antlers, she immediately took off running!
Two stags were hot on her heels!
Despite the obvious danger, she suddenly and inappropriately thought of an advertising slogan:
Why are you pursuing me?
I need cough syrup!
Fortunately, red deer cannot climb trees.
Lin Yan quickly found a big tree and climbed it, while the two deer kept bumping into the tree below.
Two hours have passed.
The sturdy tree was not damaged, and the two stags had no choice but to turn back.
Only after they left did Lin Yan finally wipe the cold sweat from her forehead and let out a long sigh of relief!
I stayed in the deep mountains for four days and three nights.
It wasn't until noon on the fourth day that she began her journey back.
This trip was quite fruitful.
Two wild ginseng plants of good age, two sets of deer antlers, and half a basket of gastrodia elata.
The prey consisted of one adult wild boar, four pheasants, and five wild gray rabbits.
Gastrodia elata is also considered valuable.
Lin Yan also wanted to cultivate it on a large scale, but unfortunately the land in the Northwest was not moist enough and was not a good place to grow Gastrodia elata.
Fortunately, the basket was big enough to hold all the medicinal herbs.
The remaining pheasants and rabbits were all hung on the wild boar, and she carried them down the mountain like that...
