After being reborn, the young master returned to his village and led his wife and daughters to prosp

"You...why are you here?"

Inside, the atmosphere was somewhat tense.

At the doorway, Lin Fan stood panting, soaked to the bone, and slightly nervous, peering into the house. He looked somewhat disheveled, but his eyes were exceptionally bright.

Lin Shuying stared at him blankly, a hint of surprise in her eyes.

She pursed her lips and asked softly.

They've been married for almost five years, and Lin Fan usually comes home in the middle of the night.

Lin Shuying knew that he hated her, hated Qiao'er, and looked down on his parents. He wanted to go back to his biological parents.

Therefore, she never asked what Lin Fan was doing outside, and Lin Fan rarely asked about anything at home, and rarely cared about his and Qiao'er's health.

Although they slept under the same roof every day, they were like two strangers on different roads, living in their own worlds, very close but with no interaction.

Seeing Lin Fan rush into her home in the pouring rain, Lin Shuying was both surprised and a little nervous.

She didn't know what Lin Fan was going to do, but the unusual situation was always unsettling, which is human nature.

Lin Fan didn't speak, but took a deep breath, and his tense body slowly relaxed.

Thankfully, Qiao'er is still here, she's still here... It's not too late!

Seeing that Lin Fan didn't speak, but his eyes were slightly red and he stared at Qiao'er on the earthen bed with a puzzled look on his face.

Lin Shuying's eyebrows twitched, and she stepped aside to block Qiao'er, asking somewhat flusteredly, "What...what do you want to do?"

These days, the idea of ​​valuing sons over daughters is still deeply ingrained.

People in the countryside especially hope to have a son to carry on the family line.

Few people care about having a daughter, since daughters are destined to marry out and belong to other families, becoming outsiders. Therefore, these days, there are countless cases of selling and abusing baby girls.

Lin Shuying always felt that one of the reasons Lin Fan didn't like her or Qiao'er was because she hadn't given him a son.

Fortunately, although Lin Fan had never paid attention to the mother and daughter before, he had not done anything out of line.

But now... Lin Fan's eyes and actions were really abnormal, and Lin Shuying was afraid that he was going to do something to Qiao'er.

"I...I've come to take Qiao'er away!"

Lin Fan looked at Lin Shuying, who was staring at him with unease, and felt a sudden pang of pain in his heart!

Lin Shuying is actually very beautiful. I remember when she first married me, her face was smooth and delicate, without any trace of the roughness and dark skin of a country person, and she often had a bright smile on her face.

But now... she just stood there, looking so pretty, wearing a worn-out, patched-up cloth dress, her face full of exhaustion, and her brows furrowed with deep sorrow!

Her lower body was covered by faded jeans and worn-out cloth shoes. Her left calf was swollen, which Lin Fan knew was due to an injury that had been casually wrapped with some cloth.

She... should have been the person he loved most and was closest to. He had taken over her youth, and now she was showing such a panicked and flustered expression in front of him.

This caused Lin Fan a pang of heartache!

Looking at the face that had appeared in his dreams countless times, Lin Fan could no longer resist and quickly walked over, grabbing Lin Shuying's hand!

"you you……"

Lin Shuying instinctively shrank back, subconsciously trying to pull her hand away.

But Lin Fan's large hand, like an iron clamp, tightly held her slender hand in his palm.

She bit her lip, growing increasingly uneasy, and looked at Lin Fan, stammering as if trying to say something.

Lin Fan took a deep breath, looked down at Lin Shuying, his face filled with endless tenderness, and said softly, "You and Qiao'er, come with me!"

Lin Shuying struggled for a moment, then, realizing a possibility, she suddenly blurted out in a panic, "What...what do you want to do? Qiao'er is also your daughter, how can you bear to sell her?"

"Are you short of money? You... tell me, I'll help you raise the money. No, don't lose Qiao'er!"

Looking at Lin Shuying, who was looking at him with a pleading expression, Lin Fan was at a loss!

He quickly shook his head, looking nervous, and said, "You...you mustn't misunderstand!"

"Qiao'er is my own flesh and blood, how could I bear to sell him? I'm taking you to the hospital!"

"Go...go to the hospital?"

Looking at Lin Fan, whose eyes were full of seriousness, Lin Shuying seemed a little dazed.

"Yes! To the hospital!"

Lin Fan nodded firmly, then said in a worried tone, "Qiao'er has a fever. If we don't go to the hospital, something bad will happen!"

Lin Shuying stared blankly at Lin Fan in front of her, wondering if she was hallucinating.

He... actually knew that Qiao'er had a fever, and he was actually worried about Qiao'er?

Although she was somewhat confused by Lin Fan's sudden change, Lin Shuying still subconsciously said, "It's alright, I've already wiped Qiao'er's body down, her fever should be gone!"

Lin Fan shook his head and said in an unquestionable tone, "No, Qiao'er's fever this time is unusual; she must go to the hospital!"

After saying that, he looked at Lin Shuying and said emphatically, "You go too!"

"I?"

Lin Shuying didn't understand Lin Fan's meaning.

Lin Fan looked down at Lin Shuying's calf: "Yes, you should go too. Your leg is injured, you need to go to the hospital for treatment!"

Lin Shuying looked somewhat dazed and for a moment forgot to speak.

He said... he wanted me to go to the hospital?

Is he worried about himself?

But...why?

Didn't he never care? Didn't he care about this family? No, he cared about himself, and he didn't care about Qiao'er. All he wanted was to go back to his biological parents.

Why did he seem like a completely different person after going out and coming back in the pouring rain? What happened?

"Alright, stop standing there, find Qiao'er some clothes, I'll take her to the hospital now!"

Before Lin Shuying could answer, Lin Fan had already gotten up, picked up Qiao'er, and urged her to hurry up.

Lin Shuying came to her senses, hesitated for a moment, and then gritted her teeth and nodded.

"Okay, going to the hospital is fine, but I... I won't go, it's not convenient for me!"

Although she didn't know why Lin Fan had suddenly changed so much, Lin Shuying had no reason to refuse since he wanted to take Qiao'er to the hospital for treatment.

Lin Fan understood what Lin Shuying meant.

He held the drowsy Qiao'er in his arms and pointed to the small door: "No, you have to go too. I borrowed a bicycle from my cousin-in-law, so you don't have to walk."

Lin Shuying looked up and, through the drizzling rain, could see that there was indeed an old-fashioned bicycle parked outside.

She opened her mouth, as if to say something, but Lin Fan interrupted her directly.

“It’s already inconvenient for me to carry Qiao’er, and it’s raining so hard. Someone has to sit behind us to shelter us from the rain. Qiao’er can’t get wet. What if her cold gets worse?”

These words dispelled Lin Shuying's last remaining concerns.

She sighed, but still nodded slightly.

"Okay, I'll go too."
