The ancestor is here, she is here with space

The officer took the purse in his hand, weighed the weight inside, and then left with the other officers with a satisfied look on his face.

As soon as the officers left, Zheng Qianzhi came over and said, "Madam, I don't know why these officers came to search."

Lin Congyun shook his head and asked everyone to get back on the carriage. "Mr. Zheng, it's okay. I don't doubt you."

If those officers really came to search for tools, Zheng Qianzhi would not be able to escape responsibility, so it should have nothing to do with him.

Another possibility is that these officials came to search just for money.

It doesn't matter to him. As long as it can be solved with money, it's not a problem.

Continuing on their journey, Lin Congyun and his group arrived at another town.

This place is larger than the towns I've visited before. There are many streets in the town, and each street is full of shops. The streets are bustling with people coming and going.

After settling down in the inn, Lin Congyun took Fang Deyu out of the inn and prepared to go for a walk on the street.

Wu Jinjie ran over in a hurry.

"Ancestor, Bai Shiqiang is here."

"Bai Shiqiang?"

Lin Congyun didn't react for a moment, and Fang Deyu said beside him: "Did Brother Bai find my father and my brother?"

After hearing this, Lin Congyun realized that Bai Shiqiang was Nanny Bai's youngest son, who was sent by her to the northern border to find the whereabouts of the original owner's husband and sons.

"Where is he now?"

"Grandfather, he is at the back door of the inn."

"Then bring him in."

Wu Jinjie brought Bai Shiqiang in. As soon as Bai Shiqiang saw Lin Congyun, he knelt down.

"Ancestor..."

"You get up first."

Lin Congyun quickly asked Wu Jinjie to help Bai Shiqiang up.

Bai Shiqiang stood up and said excitedly, "Grandfather, my brother and I have found the Third Master and the Young Master!"

When Lin Congyun heard this, he was extremely excited and asked quickly, "How are they?"

Bai Shiqiang had tears in his eyes and said in a trembling voice: "The Third Master and the Young Master were injured and are hiding in a mountain in the north. The Young Master's injuries are relatively minor and he has stabilized. But the Third Master... the Third Master..."

When Bai Shiqiang said this, his voice began to choke. He lowered his head, as if he didn't dare to look directly into Lin Congyun's eyes.

Lin Congyun's heart seemed to be tightly gripped by something, and she felt suffocated.

Fang Deyu couldn't help but ask anxiously, "What happened to Third Brother? Tell me quickly!"

Bai Shiqiang raised his head, his eyes full of grief: "The Third Master is seriously injured. He was shot in the vitals by an enemy arrow. Although he has sought treatment from a doctor, his life is in jeopardy."

"what……"

After hearing this, Zeng Xiaoyu felt as if struck by lightning. She opened her mouth but no sound came out.

At this time, Zeng Xiaoyu also came over and just heard the news. She was struck by lightning and her face turned pale instantly.

Lin Congyun quickly stepped forward to support her, "Old Third Wife, calm down first."

Zeng Xiaoyu asked in a trembling voice: "Mom, what should we do? Xinfeng he...he..."

At this point, she was already sobbing.

Lin Congyun took a deep breath, calmed down, and asked in a deep voice, "Have you heard any other news?"

"The second young master was also injured, but was sent away by the eldest young master."

The second young master that Bai Shiqiang mentioned is Fang Xinlei, who has been sent to Bianyun Pass to recuperate.

"Where are the masters?"

In fact, Lin Congyun knew that the original owner’s husband, General Fang, had died in the battlefield.

I just always hold a glimmer of hope in my heart, what if?

What if something unexpected happens?

At this moment, Zhang Liucui also hurried over.

"Mother, I heard there was news about the master and my husband..."

As soon as Zhang Liucui entered the room, she saw Zeng Xiaoyu's pale face and was shocked. She quickly asked, "Mom, what's wrong?"

Fang Deyu had tears in her eyes, and Lin Congyun motioned Bai Shiqiang to continue.

Then, everyone learned that General Fang, the eldest uncle and the second uncle had all died in the battlefield.

When everyone heard the news, they all started crying.

Zhang Liucui touched her chest and felt as if something had stabbed her. The pain was so severe that she could hardly breathe.

"Mom, no, no, they are so powerful, how could they die on the battlefield?"

Zeng Xiaoyu supported Zhang Liucui and comforted her softly, but Zhang Liucui still hugged her and cried bitterly.

"Mom, what should we do now?" Fang Deyu asked while wiping her tears.

Lin Congyun took a deep breath and said with a firm gaze: "Go to the North..."

"Mom, I want to go with you!"

Fang Deyu, Zhang Liucui and Zeng Xiaoyu spoke at the same time.

Lin Congyun shook his head. "Xinfeng's current injury is unknown. We need to rush over as soon as possible. If you go with us, it will slow down the trip. Qiangzi and I will go, and you should rush to Bianyun Pass as planned to meet up with the second brother's wife and the others."

"But..." Fang Deyu wanted to say something, but when she saw Lin Congyun's determined eyes, she knew she couldn't change her decision.

If you calm down and think about it, this arrangement made by my mother is the best.

"Mom, if you and Qiangzi go there, will your body be able to handle it?" Fang Deyu asked again.

A trace of determination flashed in Lin Congyun's eyes. "Don't worry, I know what to do. You also have to be careful along the way. Meet up with the second son's wife as soon as possible and tell her the situation at home."

"Okay, Mom, we'll be careful." The three responded in unison.

Bai Shiqiang also stood up and said that he would do his best to protect Lin Congyun's safety.

After arranging everything, Lin Congyun and Bai Shiqiang immediately set off for the north.

The two men rode fast horses, traveling day and night. Along the way, Lin Congyun's heart was filled with worry and expectation.

She was worried about Fang Xinfeng's injuries and looked forward to seeing him as soon as possible.

After several days of travel, the two finally arrived in the north.

The scenery in the north was completely different from the one that Lin Congyun and his companions took on their way to exile. There were continuous mountains, dangerous terrain, and biting cold winds, but Lin Congyun had no time to appreciate them.

She had only one thought in her mind, which was to see Fang Deyong and Fang Xinfeng as soon as possible.

Under the leadership of Bai Shiqiang, the two came to the mountain where they were hiding.

When we reached the halfway point of the mountain, a simple wooden house came into view.

Lin Congyun's heart instantly rose to her throat. She walked quickly forward and pushed open the shaky wooden door.

Inside the house, Fang Deyong was lying on a tattered wooden bed with a pale face, but when he saw Lin Congyun, a glimmer of light flashed in his eyes.

"Mom..." His voice was weak, but full of surprise.

Lin Congyun walked quickly to the bedside and held his hand tightly, "Old Third, how are you?"

Fang Deyong smiled slightly, "Mom, I'm fine, just slightly injured. But Xinfeng..."

When Fang Xinfeng was mentioned, Lin Congyun's heart tightened again, "Where is he?"
