At the beginning of the famine, I became famous all over the world with my useless system

"Stop yelling! Brother Songni, Sister Wu. If Xifeng wakes up, make her some light porridge for at least half a month. Don't let her eat greasy food.

"Although it seems that there is no problem now, everything is still uncertain. If Xifeng feels uncomfortable again tonight, you can come to my house and call me at any time."

Seeing that the two were about to kowtow again, Lin Qing hurriedly signaled Lin Yuanxin to help them up.

After tucking the quilt in for Xifeng and giving her a few more instructions, he stood up and prepared to leave.

Mrs. Wu wiped her tears and was so excited that she didn't know what to do. Her prejudice against Lin Qing disappeared in an instant, and she changed her address to the more intimate "Sister Lin".

"Okay, okay, I've taken note of everything you said. Thank you, Miss Laolin! We truly cannot repay you for saving our lives!"

Mrs. Wu originally wanted to let Songni see the two distinguished guests off, but she was afraid that he was not good at speaking and might anger the other party without knowing it, so she had to straighten her clothes and follow.

After chatting for a few more words at the door, Wu looked down at the silver bracelet on her wrist for a long time under the bright moonlight. After hesitating for a moment, she gritted her teeth and pulled it off.

He looked at Lin Qing, then turned and forced the thing onto Lin Yuanxin's hand.

Lin Yuanxin was at a loss and tried to make excuses for a long time but to no avail. He looked at Lin Qing for help.

"No, Auntie, what are you doing? I can't accept such a valuable thing!"

Mrs. Wu insisted on forcing the gift into her hands, "I don't have anything worth showing off. You don't want it, but do you look down on me?"

Lin Yuanxin hurriedly denied it. "No, it's not..."

Seeing that Lin Yuanxin was almost crying, Lin Qing knew it was her turn to take action, and hurriedly came to the rescue with a smile.

"Xiao Xin, don't be so ignorant. Auntie is giving it to you, just take it!"

"what?"

When Wu heard Lin Qing say this, she immediately smiled in relief, "Oh, that's right!"

Only after the two figures disappeared around the corner of the street did Mrs. Wu let out a long sigh and slowly closed the door.

Oh my God, it’s a good thing that the eldest daughter-in-law of the Gu family accepted the bracelet, otherwise she really doesn’t know how to repay such a great favor!

As soon as they turned the corner, Lin Yuanxin hurriedly took off the bracelet from his hand and handed it to Lin Qing.

"Aunt Lin, this bracelet was given to you by Aunt Wu. I can't accept it."

Lin Qing said calmly, "She knew I wouldn't accept it, so she gave it to you. Just wear it!"

Lin Yuanxin held the heavy silver bracelet in his hand, his mind blank.

My mother only has a silver hairpin, how could she have such an exquisite bracelet?

After pondering for a moment, she seemed to have figured something out and obediently put the bracelet on her wrist.

Lin Qing smiled with satisfaction and said, "I see you're not as curious as before. Have you figured something out?"

Although Lin Yuanxin had not spent much time with Aunt Lin, he knew that she wanted to teach him the principles of life and work. She did not like to tell him the answers directly, but preferred to encourage him to think for himself. Even if he made a mistake, she would not laugh at him. Instead, she would patiently teach him until he fully understood.

So she didn't hesitate at all and boldly expressed her guess.

"Think it over carefully. Aunt Lin, you saved Aunt Wu's daughter. This is a huge favor to them. If we don't accept anything in return, they'll always be thinking about it. Over time, Aunt Wu will always be thinking about how to repay us, which will probably be very troublesome."

Lin Qing had long known that Lin Yuanxin was a smart child, but she never expected that she could figure out the key without any guidance. She was extremely surprised and her voice unconsciously became a little higher.

"Yuan Xin, you're right! As the saying goes, a great favor brings a great hatred. If they keep thinking they can't repay you, they might have evil intentions. Accepting this silver bracelet will put their minds at ease. It's actually a good deal."

Lin Qing put his arm around her shoulders and continued, "Of course, the most important thing is that you've been here for so long, and I haven't given you anything decent yet. Consider this as me being shameless and offering you something. Please don't despise me."

Lin Yuanxin never expected that Aunt Lin would accept the pair of silver bracelets for such a reason. Tears welled up in his eyes and he choked up and said:

"I, how dare I dislike you! I'm so happy, but you've been so good to me, I really don't know how to repay you!"

"Hey, I just said that great kindness can lead to great hatred. Aunt Lin can't bear the consequences of your words!"

After she teased him like this, a faint smile appeared on Lin Yuanxin's lips.

After wiping away his tears, Lin Yuanxin suddenly remembered that they came to Songni's house today mainly to inquire about how to cancel the engagement with the Jia family, but he did not expect that Songni's family was actually the one whose engagement was broken off.

Lin Yuanxin couldn't help but feel a little discouraged. How could he learn this?

This trip was in vain...

That’s not the case, after all, they saved a life.

This light yet satisfying joy made Lin Yuanxin's mind more active, and he asked, "Aunt Lin, is there anyone else in this village who wants to marry into the Jia family?"

Lin Qing thought for a moment and said, "No, Xifeng was the first one. After her engagement was broken off, I became her replacement."

The joy receded like a tide in an instant, and Lin Yuanxin felt inexplicably conflicted.

She was glad that she and Aunt Lin had escaped from the evil den of the Jia Mansion, but when she thought of the countless poor people like her sister, she felt that she had lost all conscience.

No, she has to work with Aunt Lin to find a way to rescue her sister as soon as possible!

After calming himself down, Lin Yuanxin said what he had buried deep in his heart.

"Aunt Lin, you just asked Er Miao to find the families who were harmed by the Jia family and file a joint complaint. This is certainly a good idea, but I didn't dare to mention it just now. Someone in the neighboring town did the same thing, but they were punished by the county magistrate as a mobster. They almost spent all their family wealth to redeem the people, but when they were released, they were either missing limbs or were so scared that they could only scream and scream. It's no exaggeration to say that they were half dead..."

Suddenly a cool breeze blew, and both of them shivered at the same time.

Lin Yuanxin sniffed and said, “That’s why I would rather commit suicide than throw my life into the Jia Mansion.

"Aunt Lin, the Jia family doesn't agree to my family breaking off the engagement and wants my sister to take over. What do you think? So I think we should ask Uncle Dahuai, so that we can have a better idea of ​​what's going on."

Lin Qing nodded, thinking that what Yuan Xin said made sense.

"Okay, let's go ask tomorrow!"

The two walked and talked under the moonlight. In the quiet Songsi Village, no one knew that there was a spring scene in the dilapidated temple outside the village where the Gu family used to live. It was not until the moon was bright and the stars were sparse that the panting sounds gradually stopped.

Xiangzhi got up with difficulty, straightened her hair and clothes, rubbed her still hot face, and saw the man's hand around her waist again, pretending to be angry.

"You said you'd let me go this afternoon, but it's already so late! I won't be able to explain myself when I get back if you keep messing around!"

Song Dadong kneaded her soft skin wantonly, squinted his eyes in the moonlight and looked at her bruised body without any care. The words he said made Xiangzhi shiver.
