The ancestor is here, she is here with space

Lin Congyun began to tell her story. Her voice was soft and magnetic, as if it had some kind of magic that attracted the three little ones tightly.

"A long time ago, there was a place where people were just like us, busy every day. There was a man who offended a powerful man because of a small misunderstanding. From then on, his life was full of danger and trouble."

Fang Xinyu was listening attentively, while Fang Xinxin and Fang Xinyue also opened their eyes wide and stared at Lin Congyun closely.

"That powerful man used his influence to recruit a group of men to spread rumors, claiming that the man was seriously ill. Their words spread among the crowd like poison. For a moment, the man seemed to have become an alien in the eyes of everyone, surrounded by invisible pressure and prejudice, with nowhere to escape."

Lin Congyun paused, looked at the curious eyes of the three little guys, and continued: "Do you know? Sometimes, we only see the surface of things, and the truth is often hidden deep inside. Just like that butcher, maybe he is not what everyone thinks."

Fang Xinyu nodded thoughtfully, and Fang Xinxin and Fang Xinyue also showed expressions of sudden enlightenment.

For some reason, in Lin Congyun's mind, the butcher was not a very evil person. As he said this, he looked at the butcher again.

Lin Congyun sighed softly and continued, "Although that man was in a difficult situation, he never gave up on himself. He silently endured all the pain and prejudice, trying to find the truth, hoping that one day he could clear his grievances."

Lin Congyun looked at the expressions of the three little ones and knew that they were deeply attracted by the story.

She smiled and continued to tell the man's story.

"Just when the man was about to despair, he met a kind person. The person believed in his innocence and decided to help him find the truth. They faced difficulties and endured pressure together, and finally succeeded in exposing the conspiracy of the powerful man."

Hearing this, Fang Xinxin and Fang Xinyue couldn't help but smile excitedly. They applauded the two men's courage and wisdom.

Fang Xinyu tilted her head and asked, "Grandma, how did those two reveal it?"

Lin Congyun smiled slightly, with wisdom glittering in his eyes. "That man and his friends, through clever tactics, successfully revealed the true identity of that powerful man. They used public opinion to make people begin to doubt the authenticity of those rumors. At the same time, they also found those who spread the rumors and exposed their lies with evidence."

"After some twists and turns, the truth finally came to light. The man's reputation was restored and he regained people's respect. And the powerful man received the punishment he deserved."

Lin Congyun's story was over and the three little ones listened with great interest.

Fang Xinyu clapped her hands excitedly and said, "Grandma, you are so great! The stories you tell are even better than those told by mother!"

Lin Congyun felt a little embarrassed by the compliment. She touched Fang Xinyu's head and said with a smile, "Okay, it's getting late now. Let's go to bed early."

The next day, after Lin Congyun finished the breakfast brought by Nanny Bai and was about to walk out of the dilapidated temple, the butcher who was stabbed last night walked over.

"Thank you, benefactor, for saving me last night."

Lin Congyun nodded slightly and said calmly: "No need to thank me, I saved you just because it was convenient for me to do so."

When the butcher heard her say this, he immediately showed some difficulty on his face. He rubbed his hands and said, "My benefactor, you saved my life. I really don't know how to repay your kindness."

Lin Congyun waved his hand and said, "Okay, go away. I don't need your reward."

The butcher did not leave, but knelt in front of Lin Congyun and said, "My benefactor, I know you are from the general's mansion, and you may look down on a vulgar person like me, but you saved my life, and I cannot be ungrateful. If you don't mind, I am willing to work like a cow or a horse for you to repay your kindness."

Lin Congyun looked at the butcher kneeling in front of her and said, "Get up. I saved you not for your reward."

The butcher was still kneeling there, as stubborn as a rock, and did not stand up.

At this time, several officers strode over. One of them impatiently swung the whip in his hand and slammed it heavily on the ground, shouting angrily like thunder: "What are you doing so early in the morning? Can't you let us have some peace and quiet?"

The butcher was startled by the sudden roar and quickly looked up to explain: "Sir, you misunderstood, I just wanted to thank this benefactor..."

"Thank you? What do you have to thank me for? Get out of here right now and don't delay your journey!" The official interrupted the butcher impatiently, with a look of disdain on his face.

The butcher looked embarrassed and wanted to explain a few more words, but was stopped by Lin Congyun who was standing beside him.

Lin Congyun said calmly: "You should leave as soon as possible. I appreciate your kindness. As for repaying you, I will keep it in mind and we will talk about it when we have the chance."

The butcher sighed helplessly, stood up, bowed deeply to Lin Congyun, then turned and left.

The voices of the officials urging people to hurry up were heard. The wind outside was weaker than yesterday, but the sky still looked gray.

"hurry up!"

"Don't dawdle, get on the road!"

The sound of the officers' whips and the prisoners' wailing echoed outside the ruined temple.

Lin Congyun boarded the carriage and saw nothing but gray everywhere he looked. An indescribable feeling of depression suddenly welled up in his heart.

She quickly called Wu Jinjie to her side, and said with a somewhat anxious and serious tone: "Butler Wu, the weather is unusual today. You must strengthen the rear guard and the care of the people in Huangjia Village. If there is any situation, report to me immediately."

Wu Jinjie looked up at the sky, his brows knitted, and a bit of worry appeared on his face, "Don't worry, ancestor, I have given the order."

However, Lin Congyun still felt uneasy and reminded again: "Especially the weak women and children in Huangjia Village, you must pay more attention."

Wu Jinjie nodded and added, "Grandfather, the eldest young lady's father has extraordinary craftsmanship. He made a few simple carts with his own hands these days. Today, those women and children with poor health can ride on them, which can also reduce their fatigue."

"Oh? My in-laws have such skills?" Lin Congyun was quite surprised. She only knew that Zhang Liucui's father was a good farmer, but she didn't expect that he was also proficient in carpentry.

When Zhang Liucui heard this, a proud smile appeared on her lips involuntarily.
