Let's just drift through life together in this quick transmigration story.

The ringleader, Niu Er, pointed at Xiong Bufan and asked, "How many taels of silver?"

"Sir, please don't joke around. This is my distant nephew. He's come to the capital to find work. His parents are waiting for him to earn money so he can come home and get married..."

Xiong Bufan nodded and said, "Yes, to make money so I can go home and get married."

Niu Er said with a lewd grin, "Come with me, I'll take you to be someone else's wife." He reached out to touch Xiong Bufan's face, but Xiong Bufan slapped his hand away.

Granny Qiu had sold out of steamed buns, so she grabbed Xiong Bufan, pushed the cart, and was about to leave when the thugs quickly chased after her.

Seeing that Granny Qiu was running a little slowly, Xiong Bufan took the cart and ran.

Yesterday, Granny Qiu ran incredibly fast, but today it seemed like she was deliberately waiting for the people behind her. She led Xiong Bufan around in circles until they arrived at an alley, where thugs were blocking the entrance.

Niu Er walked forward, panting, "Go ahead and run, let's see where you can run to now."

The small Xiong Bufan shielded Granny Qiu behind him, baring his teeth like a bear and threatening, "Get out of here, or I'll bite you to death."

Niu Er pointed to his face, "Come on, bite your brother here."

Kongkong analyzed Xiong Bufan's and Xiong Bufan's combat strength, "Bufan, one against four, can win, charge!"

Xiong Bufan grabbed the soup ladle that Granny Qiu usually used and rushed over. Although he only ate half a full breakfast, it did not affect Xiong Bufan's performance.

Niu Er said to his underlings, "I'll handle this. You guys go deal with the old woman who sells steamed buns."

"Yes."

Xiong Bufan slapped Niu Er in the face with a spoon and kicked him, knocking him down.

Next, Niu Er was met with a barrage of spoons from Xiong Bufan, each one hitting the meat.

The thugs who went to beat up Granny Qiu saw Niu Er being beaten, and before they even met Granny Qiu, they rushed over to help, but unexpectedly, Granny Qiu took them all down in no time.

The thugs all lay on the ground groaning. Granny Qiu raised an eyebrow and said, "Robbery! Hand over everything of value."

Xiong Bufan consciously stood guard at the alley entrance with a spoon, afraid that they would run away. Granny Qiu gave Xiong Bufan a praising look, but unfortunately, Xiong Bufan didn't understand it.

What happened to Grandma Qiu's eyes?

Kongkong covered her face and said, "Bufan, don't speak."

Seeing that they couldn't escape, the thugs started taking out loose silver and copper coins from their bodies.

Xiong Bufan saw another way to make money and started racing down that path.

After picking up all the silver, Granny Qiu weighed the money bag in her hand and said to Xiong Bufan, "Bufan, let them go."

Xiong Bufan hid to the side and said to the thugs, "Get lost."

The thugs scrambled away, disappearing in a flash before they could utter a single threat.

Xiong Bufan scratched his head and asked Kongkong, "Is something missing from them?"

Kongkong shouted at the top of his lungs, "I won't let you get away with this!"

Xiong Bufan breathed a long sigh of relief, "That felt good."

Seeing Xiong Bufan let out a long sigh of relief, Granny Qiu walked over and patted her on the shoulder, "Don't be afraid, I'll take you out for a nice meal, you won't have to spend any money."

"it is good."

Zuichunlou, as the name suggests, is a place where one can get drunk even in spring.

Granny Qiu placed the stolen silver on the table and instructed the waiter, "Go and put up all your restaurant's signs, like Squirrel Fish, Steamed Bear Paw, etc." As she spoke, she gave the waiter twenty copper coins and asked him to bring a pot of tea first.

Xiong Bufan grabbed the waiter, "I don't want bear paws, it will hurt a lot if the bear loses its paws."

Granny Qiu said to the waiter, "No bear paws, bring everything else."

"I forgot that Xiong Bufan's surname is Xiong. This silly child doesn't think that a bear's paw is his own hand, does he?" Granny Qiu smiled helplessly.

The waiter slung the towel over his shoulder. "Alright, sir."

Granny Qiu explained to Xiong Bufan, "The steamed bear paw isn't made with human hands; it's a fake made with pig's trotters. After all, who can catch a bear? Don't worry."

So that's how it is. Xiong Bufan stretched out his hand. Now there's no need to worry about bears losing their paws and suffering pain.

Lin Lanxi finally woke up in the evening and saw her haggard mother guarding her bedside. She touched her face and found it covered in bandages. "Mother, where did that little bitch Lin Lanzhi go? I'm going to kill her."

Madam Lin sighed, “A servant neglected his duty and burned the second young lady of the Lin family to death while she was copying Buddhist scriptures in the ancestral hall. The eldest young lady of the Lin family was also seriously burned. Lord Lin injured his hand while trying to save the ashes of his ancestors.”

Lin Lanxi's face was covered in gauze, and even her arms and body were wrapped in cloth. She was still trying to explain, "Mother, it's not like that. Lin Lanzhi put me in the fire."

Last night, Lin Lu did not pursue the matter of Lin Lanxi burning down the ancestral hall, nor did he pursue the crime of Lin Lanzhi putting Lin Lanxi into the fire. Moreover, the insider Hua Qing and the servant were already dead.

Mrs. Lin calmly said, "That's the truth. What else do you want?"

"Mother, I'm going to kill Lin Lanzhi, please help me."

Even though she was burned to death, she still couldn't resist killing Lin Lanzhi. Madam Lin had no idea what grudge these two young ladies of the Lin family held against each other.

Mrs. Lin rubbed her temples, realizing she hadn't rested since yesterday while taking care of her beloved daughter.

Now that Lin Lanxi is awake, I need to go down and rest too. Otherwise, if I stay with Lin Lanxi any longer, I'll get so angry I'll die sooner or later. "Good daughter, get some rest."

"I'm going downstairs now. If you feel unwell, just tell me." After saying that, Madam Lin left without looking back.

Madam Lin returned to her courtyard, where Qingzhu served her tea. "Madam, please calm down. Miss is still just a child."

"Qingzhu, what should we do?"

Qingzhu knew that Madam Lin wasn't really asking for her advice; her own wife had always had her own ideas since she was a child.

The previous maid, Qingye, thought the madam was really asking for her advice and spoke eloquently, only to be punished by the madam and is still working as a lowly palace maid.

Qingzhu tentatively said, "No matter what Madam does, I think Miss will understand Madam's good intentions in the future."

"Ugh."

Lin Lanxi looked in the mirror on the bed and anxiously called out, "Hua Qing, Hua Qing, where did that wretched maid go?"

The maids around them nudged each other, and finally one of them was pushed forward and tentatively said, "Miss, Hua Qing has been beaten to death by the master." After saying that, she quickly lowered her head.

"I killed you, you unlucky thing. What's your name?"

The maidservant said, "My name is Hua Yan, the 'Yan' in 'color'."

Lin Lanxi put down the bronze mirror, looked at the little maid, and slowly said, "Come here, raise your head."

Hua Yan came over shakily, and Lin Lanxi used all her strength to smash the bronze mirror on Hua Yan's face.

A shard of mirror pierced Hua Yan's face, and blood mixed with tears streamed down her face. Hua Yan covered her face and screamed.

Lin Lanxi: "It's so noisy, take him away."

Two old women appeared and dragged away the screaming Hua Yan. The little maid in the room trembled with fear, afraid of angering Lin Lanxi.

"You look like a vixen, yet you call yourself a beauty. Who are you trying to seduce? You lowly servants, watch your skin!"

"Hurry up and clean this up! It's covered in blood, it's filthy!"

Hua Yan's face is ruined; she can only be a maidservant, and she'll never get married. Her parents probably won't care about her.

With Hua Yan's example as a precedent, the maids tidied the room with trepidation, afraid of angering Lin Lanxi again.
