At the beginning of the year of famine, the lucky girl of the farm family used cheats to support the

Ten days later, Lianqin and her family packed their bags and arrived in Jiangzhou on a ox cart.

The Fubao family had already left, leaving only a letter in the store, asking the owner to give it to them.

Lianqin's hands were shaking, and a huge panic swept through her body. She tried to calm down and asked, "Xiaoyu, will Yishu come back?"

Xiaoyu was the name of the hostess. She had been waiting at the city gate early just for Lianqin.

Xiaoyu smiled and comforted her, "Sister Lianqin, Yishu has told me everything about your family. I'll take you to the shop first, and we'll talk on the way." Then she waved her hand and let the ox cart go back.

Lian Qin looked at her gorgeous clothes uncomfortably and said hesitantly, "We are covered in too much dust, so don't dirty your carriage."

Meng Yu: "Sister Lianqin! I'm going to be angry if you do this." The half-coquettish and half-joking tone eased Lianqin's mood a little.

She took the letter and opened it in the carriage. Xiaohua was feeling better now and was being held in Meng Yu's arms.

Seeing Lianqin staring blankly at the letter, Meng Yu stretched out her hand and waved it in front of her eyes: "Sister, what are you staring at?"

Lianqin said embarrassedly: "No one in our family can read..."

Meng Yu: "Oh! I thought the letter contained something extraordinary. Give it to me and I'll read it to you."

Lianqin hurriedly handed over the letter.

"Aunt Lianqin, I have something urgent to do and I have to leave now. I have handed over the rest to Meng Yu, she will take care of it for you, don't worry. The three hundred taels have been left at your residence, go and return it as soon as possible to avoid any more trouble. You should manage the rent and the three hundred taels well, and it won't be too late to return it to me next time we meet. Take care! Li Yishu."

Lianqin came to her senses, stuffed the letter back into the envelope carefully, and finally put it in her arms.

……

Fubao had been invited by the Lin family to be their guest. She didn't want to come at first, but since Mr. Lin personally went to the inn to invite them, she had no choice but to go.

In the past, the Lin family's door was always wide open during the day, but this time, except for welcoming their family in, the door was never opened again.

They were treated to delicious food and drinks these days. The old man came over every day to chat with them and relieve their boredom. The Lin family's precious library was allowed to Fubao in and out freely.

Fubao didn't know what happened, but whenever he asked Mr. Lin, he would change the subject or just keep silent. After a few days, Zhao Xiuer was so worried that she became sick, had several large ulcers in her mouth, and couldn't eat.

The next morning, Fubao was at a loss whether to laugh or cry as he applied medicine to Zhao Xiuer: "Mother, don't worry. The Lin family won't do anything to us."

With the medicine in her mouth, Zhao Xiuer could only mutter, "He never said anything. I couldn't sleep well every day and I was restless."

As soon as he finished speaking, there was a noise outside, followed by chaos.

Fu Bao pushed the door open and ran into the maid who came to ask for her help, so she asked, "What happened outside?"

The maid bowed her head and said, "Master, please come over."

Fubao nodded, and as soon as he took a step, Zhao Xiuer followed closely.

The maid paused and said, "The master only invited Miss Yishu to come over..."

Zhao Xiuer was anxious and said something vaguely, but no one present could hear it clearly.

Fubao: "Mother, don't worry. I know Mr. Lin very well. He will never do anything bad to me."

After saying that, he followed the maid around to the front hall.

Before I got close, I saw from a distance that the gate was open and there was a horse tied outside, covered in mud.

Fu Bao paused and murmured, "This horse looks familiar."

Seeing her stunned, the maid quickly reminded her, "Miss Yishu, the master is still waiting, shall we go over quickly?"

Fubao came back to his senses, nodded and went into the front hall.

Unexpectedly, as soon as I entered the door, I saw someone I hadn't seen for a long time.

Fubao said in surprise: "Lin Sen? You're back!" After their hasty farewell that day, they hadn't seen each other for quite a while.

Lin Sen looked solemn and bowed to her, which scared Fubao.

She looked at the man's dirty clothes and messy hair, and couldn't help but sigh: "Where have you been hiding in the mountains for so long? Look at these clothes."

Lin Sen said: "Today, I will explain it to you."

Fu Bao was confused: "Huh?"

Turning back, everything became clear.

Fu Bao walked over to the disheveled woman who was being held on the ground, gently brushed aside the messy hair in front of her face, and asked, "Lin Keyi?"

The girl whose name was called immediately looked up and glared fiercely.

Lin Sen immediately shouted angrily: "Lin Keyi!"

The girl was not convinced but did not dare to make him angry again, so she lowered her head angrily.

Mr. Lin seemed to have aged ten years. He bowed deeply to Fu Bao, which frightened her: "Grandpa, what are you doing?"

Old Master Lin glanced at Lin Keyi, then closed his eyes, took a few deep breaths, and said, "Lin Sen sent a message. I already know what Keyi did."

Fu Bao said: "It's all over, shouldn't I be fine?"

Old Master Lin shook his head in pain: "We did this to you because we didn't discipline you properly. It's my fault."

Fubao didn't say anything. After all, if she hadn't discovered it earlier, even with Qingheng, the second half of the journey would not be easy. It's not even certain whether she can come back.

Old Master Lin walked to Lin Keyi, raised his cane high, and then, in Lin Keyi's disbelieving eyes, dropped it heavily on her back.

Lin Keyi cried out in pain and tears flowed down her face: "Grandpa! You actually hit me!" From childhood to adulthood, her family members treated her like a jewel in the palm of their hands, and were afraid that she would get bumped or hurt. Now, after being hit by the cane, she was really scared.

Old Master Lin raised his cane again, and Lin Keyi screamed, "Brother! Brother, save me!"

Li Sen's face was full of indifference, and the pain in his eyes almost overflowed, but he did not move at all, and had no intention of going forward to help her.

After three consecutive canes, the only sound in the hall, which was so quiet that you could hear a pin drop, was Lin Keyi's sobbing.

Mr. Lin panted and said angrily, "Do you know you are wrong?"

Lin Keyi originally didn't care at all about her brother tying her back. After all, her family wouldn't really do anything to her. But now, the pain in her body reminded her all the time that there was really no one to protect her this time.

Mr. Lin didn't hear her answer and said angrily, "Wrong!"

Lin Keyi trembled all over and cried, "Grandpa, brother, I'm scared, don't do this, I'm scared!"

Old Master Lin was so angry that his body was shaking, and Fubao hurried over to hold him up.

The old man looked at his granddaughter who could only whine and cry, and shouted, "Go to the ancestral hall and ask for family discipline!"

Lin Keyi was completely stunned and even forgot to cry. She didn't expect that her grandfather would punish her so severely just because of this matter.
