Quick Transmigration: Survive to the End

Yinyin is young and usually goes to bed early and gets up early. She has never stayed up so late before, and she slept until very late the next day.

When she opened her eyes, Lin Jingjing had already been awake for a while, but seeing that her younger sister hadn't gotten up yet, she remained lying down to keep her company.

“Sister,” Yinyin snuggled up to her, “Sister smells so good.”

Lin Jingjing smelled it herself but didn't notice anything wrong. After thinking for a moment, she said, "Perhaps it's because I used rose dew when I cleaned my hair yesterday. Yinyin, if you like it, I'll have someone send you two bottles."

Yinyin shook her head: "I don't need you to give me any, sister. I have some too. If you've used up yours, I'll give it to you!"

Mr. and Mrs. Lin only had two daughters, whom they doted on like precious jewels. They would make sure that the other had everything that the older sister had, so naturally, Yin Yin also had everything that her older sister had.

Yin Yin was young and didn't use much face powder or floral water. The room was mostly filled with the natural fragrance of fruits and vegetables, so she mostly gave the rose water and hair oil she received to her older sister or gave them away as gifts.

Remembering this, Lin Jingjing didn't say anything more: "Is Yinyin hungry? I think it's time for her to eat."

Yinyin touched her belly: "A little."

Lin Jingjing laughed upon hearing this and called out loudly for her maid to come in and help her with her washing and grooming.

Worried that the two sisters would get too hungry, Granny Zhao first placed several plates of snacks on the table. The two sisters ate two pieces to fill their stomachs a little before heading to the main courtyard.

Lin's mother had just finished dealing with household chores and was about to go see the two sisters when she saw them coming hand in hand.

"Mother," the two sisters said, each sitting on one side, "when are we going to eat?"

"It's all prepared, we've been waiting for you," Lin's mother said, embracing her two daughters. She instructed a maid to go to the kitchen to deliver the message and sent someone to the study to call the master.

Lin Jingjing asked, somewhat puzzled, "Didn't Father go out today?"

“Nothing major happened at the shop today, so your father didn’t go out,” said Lin’s mother. But in reality, it was Lin’s father who was worried and stayed at the mansion to keep watch.

When Mr. Lin came in and saw that both of his daughters were healthy, a smile appeared on his face.

After the family had eaten and drunk their fill, Yin Yin brought it up again: "Dad, Mom, I want to learn martial arts."

This time, Lin's parents didn't refuse outright as they had before, treating her like a child who could do whatever she wanted.

“Martial arts are arduous,” Lin’s father picked up Yin Yin, “and you have to train in the coldest days of winter and the hottest days of summer. You also have to see if you have the aptitude. Yin Yin, you should think it over carefully.”

“I’ve made up my mind,” Yin Yin said, waving her fist. “I’m going to practice martial arts hard to protect my parents and sister.”

Mr. Lin smiled and patted Yin Yin's head. He didn't immediately agree, and his opposition wasn't as strong as before.

After thinking for a moment, Lin's mother said, "I remember that Madam Li of Dingyuan Escort Agency is very skilled in martial arts. Why don't we ask her if she can take Yinyin as her apprentice?"

Escort Agency?

Yinyin quickly asked, "Mother, can Madam Li fly? Can she stir up huge waves with a wave of her sleeve, or uproot ancient trees around her with a single movement of her inner energy?"

“It’s impossible to think about it,” Lin’s mother laughed. “However, Madam Li and her husband are quite famous, and I heard they are considered second-rate experts.”

“No way,” Yin Yin waved her hand, “I won’t take her as my master.”

Lin Jingjing understood her younger sister's thoughts better: "Yinyin wants a master who can stir up storms with a wave of his hand to be her teacher."

“These are top-tier masters. There are only a handful of such masters in the world. Ordinary people like us may never see one in our entire lives,” Lin’s father said. “It would be very difficult to get them to take you as their disciple.”

“But in my dream, all the bad guys around my sister are so powerful,” Yin Yin said innocently, pretending not to understand. “They would fight one another, and then the next one would fight the next one in the same way.”

"When they fight, they can either capsize a big ship, split a mountain, or at the very least destroy a forest."

Mr. Lin's hand trembled, and he almost dropped his daughter.

He slowly sat down next to his wife, his face pale, but he forced a smile: "Is that so? Then Dad will try his best to find the best teacher for Yin Yin, okay?"

Yinyin nodded seriously: "Not only Yinyin, but also my sister wants to learn!"

Before his wife and eldest daughter could speak, Mr. Lin readily agreed: "Okay, my older sister will learn too."

Lunch was served in advance, and after the family had eaten, Mr. Lin felt at ease letting his eldest daughter take his youngest daughter out to play.

Then Lin's mother asked, "Do you really want Jingjing to learn martial arts too? This child usually only likes to do elegant things and is very delicate. Can she endure the hardship of martial arts training?"

“If what Yinyin saw in her dream is true,” Lin’s father said dejectedly, “it is clear that my wife and I cannot protect our child. In that case, we might as well teach our child to be capable on her own.”

Lin's mother knew this principle, but she still felt sorry for her daughter: "Why don't I stop taking Jingjing out to visit people? If her reputation doesn't spread outside, I can protect her and ensure she gets married safely."

"What about after she gets married?" Lin's father thought further ahead. "Even if he is a powerful and influential son-in-law, there is no guarantee that there will be someone with even more power and status than him. Unless we can rise to the top in one step and send Jingjing to the palace."

"But you know better than I what the palace is like. Even daughters of powerful and wealthy families can't get what they want. What can our family do with all our money?"

Lin's mother had worked as a palace maid before, doing her job diligently and avoiding countless troubles. She remained a spinster until she was old, when she finally left the palace peacefully and married Lin's father, her childhood sweetheart.

She understood the hardships of palace life better than anyone. With only beauty and wealth but no family background, one was a sitting duck in the palace.

So she gritted her teeth and said, "Then let's practice, let's all practice."

“Not only our two daughters, but we also know a little bit of basic martial arts. With us by their side, even if the kids are a bit spoiled, I think they'll be able to stick with it.”

Lin's father was poor when he was young, and the family business he has built up now is all thanks to his hard work in business. He used to know a few tricks, but he doesn't go out much now, so he has put them aside. It's easy for him to pick them up again now.

He was worried about something else.

Where can I find a top-notch master to take on apprentices and teach his daughters?
