Wilderness Redemption Tour

Chapter 172 A Good Thing

In the era when Lin Yan lived, women went from being dependent on men to being able to hold up half the sky, and then the prevalence of feminist ideas, coupled with the pressure of life, made young people like Lin Yan in the new era gradually give up the idea of ​​finding someone to live with, and even the instinct of biological reproduction was gone. Now, hearing the ideas of "experienced people" more than a hundred years ago that are exactly the same as those of modern people, Lin Yan can't help but sigh that humans are really amazing creatures. No matter how the times change, some ideas can remain surprisingly consistent.

Seeing John's serious look, Lin Yan smiled and said, "I can see that you and Dutch are a good example."

"That's right. Whether we are married or still in a relationship, we are the stupidest people." John wanted to pour more wine, but found that the bottle in his hand was empty. He stood up and got another bottle. "Sometimes I envy Arthur. Although he was once trapped in love, he managed to get through it. Look at him now. He is carefree all day long, like a fool without worries. He is the only one who bothers others. No one lectures or blames him, and he doesn't have to fulfill his duties as a father. How great it is."

"It depends on the person. Look, Hosea always talks about Bessie. And Sadie never says anything bad about her husband." Lin Yan tried to enlighten John as an outsider. "I can see that Abigail still loves you very much. You should try to understand her actions from her perspective."

"Hosea advised me the same thing," John rubbed his eyelids which were becoming increasingly heavy, "Maybe you are right, I still haven't changed thoroughly enough..." As he said this, he actually started snoring while sitting there.

Looking at John who fell asleep in a second, Lin Yan was a little speechless, but at the same time he felt relieved. He, a man who had never been in a relationship, was here counseling a man who already had a child. Even he himself found it ridiculous.

Just as he was thinking about how to send John back, Abigail standing on the steps of the villa called out "John" and solved his dilemma. He quickly called Abigail over, and the two of them worked together to carry the drunk John to the bed.

"Thank you, Jamie. Neither this father nor this son is worry-free." Abigail panted, looking at the father and son sleeping soundly on the bed with complicated eyes.

"You're welcome." Lin Yan waved his hand and said what he had been thinking for a long time. "I feel that John is trying hard to integrate into this family. It's normal that he is not perfect at the beginning. If you are more patient and tolerant with him, I think he will be more receptive to your ideas."

"I know." Abigail looked at the sleeping John and smiled tiredly. "It's hard to control your emotions when you're facing two troublesome boys at the same time. Thank you for tonight. It's getting late, you should go to bed early."

Since the host had ordered him to leave, Lin Yan was too embarrassed to continue even if he wanted to say something. He hurriedly said "good night" and said goodbye to Abigail before leaving the villa.

Returning to the campfire, he waited until Sadie came back, sat by the campfire and chatted with her for a while until his hair was dry, then they said good night to each other and returned to their respective beds.

The next morning, Lin Yan got up early, thinking about the stagecoach. Pearson's breakfast was not ready yet, so he drank a cup of coffee to refresh himself. While waiting for breakfast to be ready, he opened the system map to study the route later.

The river referred to by Riverside in one of Alden's messages was the Kamassa River, and the Muddy Waterfront was a wide river channel and gentle water flow in the middle of the alluvial plain formed by the lower reaches of the Kamassa River. Based on the route of the carriage, Lin Yan guessed that Mrs. Chester Damson was going to Saint Denis, and the wooden bridge near the Muddy Waterfront was the only way for her to go.

As for the Giant Face Rock mentioned in another message, it is located in the southeast of Ambarino State, on the outskirts of the East Grizzli Mountains, near a circular pond called Moonstone. In addition, it is not far from Oakleaf Pond where Lin Yan and Hosea hunted bears.

"These locations..." Lin Yan looked at the three points on the system map that were almost connected in a straight line. "It's a perfect straight line! If I have enough time, I can hunt some game for lunch today. I just happen to have a lot of seasonings here."

As time went by, everyone in the camp who had gone to bed early got up one after another and started their tasks for the new day.

"Good morning." Arthur walked over and greeted Lin Yan with a smile.

Unlike his casual attire in the past, Arthur wore a formal suit today, shaved his beard cleanly, and even smeared hair oil on his head, combing his hair back into a big slicked back style. Although his clothes looked a bit old from a close distance, at first glance he looked like a spirited old man in his thirties.

Lin Yan had never seen Arthur so solemn, nor had he seen him show this expression. Looking at Arthur with joy in his eyes and eyebrows, he also smiled and asked: "Why are you so happy? Is there any happy event today?"

Arthur chuckled, coughed twice and said, "Mary wrote to me again yesterday to ask me out. I feel like our old love is about to rekindle."

Hearing Arthur say that he might soon end his single life, Lin Yan sincerely wished him well: "Congratulations, you must seize this opportunity."

Arthur touched his nose, and the smile on his face gradually faded. "My requirements are still the same as they were a few years ago. In fact, it mainly depends on Mary's attitude."

Lin Yan understood Arthur's meaning instantly. Even after so many years, he still refused to leave the gang in pursuit of his love. He hoped that the one who changed her attitude was Mary.

"After these few contacts, what do you think?"

Unlike the smile that came from the bottom of his heart just now, Arthur forced a smile this time. "It feels a little better than before. Since I helped her brother recognize the true face of a certain evil cult, at least he is on my side. So Mary plans to take me to meet her father again today..."

Speaking of Mary's father, the expression on Lin Yan's face can no longer be described as smiling, perhaps crying is more appropriate. "That stubborn old man, I don't know how Mary can convince him."

"You were fine just now, why are you worried again?" Lin Yan was speechless as he looked at Arthur, who was full of confidence just now but lost all confidence when talking about Mary's father.

"You've been following Dutch for so many years in vain." Lin Yan felt like a disappointed person. "Mary's family background is not as good as Molly's. Dutch was able to trick Molly, so why can't you trick Mary? While there's still time, why don't you go to Dutch to learn from him?"
