A post-apocalyptic female soul travels back to the War of Resistance against Japan
Chapter 389 Chief Escort Wang Comes to Demand the Map
"Mr. Lin, I have come here with the utmost sincerity. I hope that even if you only sell me one unit, I will be completely satisfied. If you are willing to sell it to me, I am willing to pay double the price. I hope you will grant my request!"
Wang Biao Tou actually traveled this route frequently and knew it like the back of his hand, but he had never owned a map as detailed as the one Lin Zeyang had in his hand. He hoped to have one!
Lin Zeyang frowned and pondered for a moment before saying, "Alright, then I'll give you one portion. Don't ask for double the price; it'll still be one hundred taels per portion. We're friends, and I don't want to ruin our relationship by asking for an exorbitant price."
Upon hearing that Lin Zeyang was willing to give up a share, Wang Biaotou was overjoyed and quickly took out a hundred-tael silver note from his sleeve and handed it over!
After Lin Zeyang took the banknote, he said, "Chief Lin Biao, please wait a moment while I go get it for you."
Wang Biao nodded, "Okay, okay!"
Lin Zeyang soon produced a topographic map. Lin Biao held it in his hand, his eyes shining as he looked at every mark on the map. He couldn't help but exclaim, "This is truly a masterpiece of divine craftsmanship!"
After regaining his senses, he carefully put the topographical map into his pocket, then cupped his hands and said to Lin Zeyang, "Master Lin, we will be setting off after breakfast, so I won't disturb you any longer. I'll go and make some arrangements."
The two bowed to each other and went about their own business. After breakfast, they made some arrangements and set off again. Soon they left the territory of Yunzhou.
After leaving Yunzhou, they traveled for seven or eight days without encountering a single village along the way, so they had no choice but to stay overnight in the countryside.
Before leaving, everyone had already purchased food and other necessities for their overnight stay.
Since the weather is quite hot at midday, except for the mornings and evenings when it's a bit chilly, you just need to make sure you're keeping warm when you're resting at night.
They had been out for three days. Wang Biao noticed that it was getting dark, so he found a sheltered spot and made arrangements to stay there for the night.
Before dark, everyone gathered some firewood and lit a campfire. Each family prepared dinner in advance before it got completely dark, intending to finish before nightfall so they wouldn't have to work in the dark.
Cheng Ying had a lot of cooked food in her space at the Lin family's place. She took some ready-made food and decided not to light a fire today. After all, it was better for the family to enjoy the food together than to keep it.
The family sat at the dining table in the carriage without feeling the heat at all. Moreover, Cheng Ying had adjusted a solar-powered lamp to a soft hue and hung it on the roof of the carriage, so even though the light shone through the carriage, it wasn't too bright.
The family of three chatted while eating, saying, "Husband, we've been away for several days now. I wonder how my mother-in-law and father-in-law are doing. Have you called them to ask?"
Lin Zeyang swallowed the food in his mouth and said, "I haven't called yet, but Dad messaged me privately on the phone before. I couldn't answer at the time, so they left us a message and asked about our situation. I've already told them about the situation here!"
Luo Wanyin couldn't help but sigh, "Since I got a mobile phone and can contact my family anytime, it's become so much more convenient."
At this point, Luo Wanyin couldn't help but think of her own family. She wasn't worried about others, but she was worried about whether her mother was doing well.
She didn't need to worry about her biological father. After all, with so many concubines and mistresses in the family, he was busy enough. How could anything happen to him? She wasn't worried about him at all.
Looking at her husband in front of her, she had only met him a few times due to various circumstances, but they were kindred spirits and fell in love.
Moreover, her husband promised her that he would not take a concubine and would only have her for the rest of his life. This sincere affection moved her, which made her insist on being with him despite her family's opposition.
And even now, Lin Zeyang has fulfilled everything he promised, and he knows he married the right person.
Although she was the legitimate daughter of the family, she was not valued because her mother only had one daughter and did not give birth to a son for her father to inherit the family business. Therefore, when she was to marry Lin Zeyang, her father did not care much about this matter.
Only after her mother overcame all opposition was she able to easily leave that family. But the person she felt most guilty towards was her own mother. Leaving her mother alone in that den of wolves was an act of filial impiety on her part as a daughter.
I wonder which family her mother is in, what her current situation is, and whether she and her mother will ever see each other again in this lifetime.
Thinking of this, a bitter look appeared in his eyes, and even his food lost its flavor.
At this moment, Lin Zeyang noticed his wife's slightly furrowed brows and asked, "Madam, what's wrong? Is the food not to your liking?"
Cheng Ying also looked at her mother and listened to their conversation without making a sound to disturb them. Luo Wanyin looked up and saw her husband and daughter looking at her with worried eyes.
She couldn't help but smile gently. "It's nothing. I just suddenly thought about how my mother is doing now. I feel so guilty for leaving her alone in that house when I married you."
