Transmigrated into a Prosperous Farm Wife, Pampered, Beautiful, Strong, and Tragic Prime Minister

A scream.

With a thud, the old man fell to the ground and kicked his legs.

Lin Shuyun: ...

Did he fall and die?

Just as she was about to step forward to check on him, the old man, who had landed face-first, shakily spat out the weeds in his mouth. "Girl, don't you know how to respect the elderly and care for the young? Couldn't you have helped me up?"

Lin Shuyun helped the old man up because of the two rabbits.

The old man, having recovered his composure, muttered curses, "Which damned bastard set this trap? I've been hanging here for ages! If he finds out..."

Just as they were getting into a heated argument, a small, fair hand reached out in front of them.

Lin Shuyun held a sickle in her other hand, blinked, and said, "The rabbit you promised me."

The old man's back hunched slightly, and his voice became trembling again, "Girl, look at me, I'm so old and it's not easy for me to go hunting in the mountains. You seem like a kind-hearted child, so why don't you..."

"Oh, you're welcome, two rabbits." Lin Shuyun smiled, holding up her sickle slightly.

The sun shone on the sickle, making it a little dazzling, and the old man was momentarily stunned.

He pulled the cloth bag over with one hand and poured out two rabbits.

"I'm a man of my word. If I said I'd have two, I meant two. Here you go!"

After receiving her payment, Lin Shuyun threw the rabbit into her basket, picked up her sickle, and turned to continue walking into the mountains.

Seeing this, the old man kindly reminded her, "Hey, girl, it's dangerous in the mountains. Where are you going?"

Lin Shuyun acted as if she hadn't heard anything and went into the deep mountains with her basket on her back.

The old man got up from the ground and tried to chase after her, but when he looked closely, the girl was nowhere to be seen.

"I saw a ghost in broad daylight? And it was a female ghost dressed in red?"

On such a hot day, the old man shivered.

Then he took off running, not forgetting to bring his cloth bag with him.

……

Lin Shuyun was unaware that her deliberately quickened pace had almost frightened the old man.

She glanced at the deer droppings on the ground and guessed that there were wild deer roaming around nearby.

Wild deer should be worth some money, right?

A slight noise came from behind her. Lin Shuyun gripped her sickle tightly and turned around abruptly.

She saw a small black ball standing three meters away, barking at her.

"Meow~"

"It's you, little kitty?"

Lin Shuyun immediately recognized it as the little black cat she had rescued in the mountains the day before.

"Meow~"

The little black cat meowed at Lin Shuyun again.

"You actually recognize me? Did you come here specifically to find me?"

Lin Shuyun squatted down, and the little black cat came over and rubbed against her shoes. She was about to reach out and touch it when the little black cat dodged away.

He ran two steps forward, then turned back to look at Lin Shuyun and called out to her.

"You mean you want me to go with you?"

Lin Shuyun followed in confusion. The little black cat took a few steps and then looked back at her. Once it was sure she was following, it quickened its pace.

Although Lin Shuyun didn't know what the little black cat wanted to do, she followed it out of curiosity.

After crossing a hill, they came to a dense forest overgrown with weeds, where the little black cat finally stopped.

"This is……"

"Sigh~"

Just as Lin Shuyun was wondering what was going on, a colorful snake as thick as a wrist poked its head out of the grass, flicked its tongue, and stared at Lin Shuyun as if it were about to attack.

"Meow!"

The little black cat instantly bristled, arching its tiny body and baring its teeth as it confronted the flower snake.

The moment the snake moved, the vines on Lin Shuyun's wrist shot out and pierced the seven-inch mark of the snake.

The little black cat, just about to pounce on the attack: ??

Lin Shuyun walked over and her eyes lit up when she saw the red ginseng in the grass. "I didn't expect this snake to be guarding a ginseng."

I've heard that rare and precious treasures are always protected by poisonous insects, and it turns out it's true.

She carefully dug out the ginseng, which looked to be over a hundred years old.

"Thank you, little kitty. I didn't expect you to be so grateful and so intelligent."

Lin Shuyun's affection for the little black cat is skyrocketing right now.

"Let me give you a name. Since you're so dark-skinned, um... I'll call you Coal Ball."

"Meow meow meow meow~" (You're the one who's dark, you're the real lump of coal.)

Seeing it meowing repeatedly, Lin Shuyun reached out and patted its head.

"You're calling it out so excitedly, you must really like this name."

"Coal Ball, I know you want to come home with me. Since you're so smart, I've agreed to take you home."

Lin Shuyun picked up the little black cat and kissed it on the head.

The little coal ball, who was cursing enthusiastically, suddenly froze.

Before she could react, Lin Shuyun had already tucked her into her arms.

Meow?

"This snake is so colorful, it must be valuable."

Lin Shuyun casually tossed the dead snake into the basket as well.

Then, carrying a basket on his back and coal briquettes in his arms, he went down the mountain.

On the way down the mountain, I picked some wild plums and covered the basket with a few large leaves.

As soon as Lin Shuyun arrived at her doorstep, she saw a child of about ten years old standing at her door with a bundle in his hand, peeking out.

"Hey kid, what are you doing sneaking around like that!"

Lin Shuyun called out, and the boy turned and ran.

Oh no, could her things have been stolen?

Lin Shuyun dropped her basket and chased after him, grabbing the petty thief by the collar. "Why are you running? Tell me! Did you steal anything from my house?"

The petty thief turned around and lowered his head. "Sis, I didn't run away!"

Lin Shuyun was stunned for a moment, then instantly remembered who this kid was: Lin Hongwen, the original owner's younger brother, who was twelve years old.

Lin Shuyun then released the person, "If you didn't run away, what are you doing?"

"Sis, I've come to see you. Are you alright?"

Lin Hongwen looked up and his eyes immediately reddened, tears streaming down his face.

Lin Shuyun suddenly felt a pang of sadness and subconsciously softened her tone, "Why are you crying? I'm perfectly fine."

Lin Hongwen wiped away his tears as he handed over the bundle. "These are your clothes. You didn't take anything with you when you left. I was worried you wouldn't have any clean clothes to change into, so I sent them to you."

Actually, he noticed that his sister hadn't brought her usual clothes and had only left in her wedding dress. He was afraid that his sister might be upset, so he secretly came to check on her.

Upon arriving in the village, they learned that the Jiang family had already driven his sister and brother-in-law to this abandoned, dilapidated house, so they came looking for them again.

He's timid; when he was sternly reprimanded, he instinctively ran away.

I never expected it to be his sister. It's so good that she's still alive.

"Thank you so much. You delivered it just in time. I was worried about not having any clothes to change into." Lin Shuyun took the bundle and looked at Lin Hongwen.

The younger brother was thin and fair-skinned, with sweat all over his forehead.

That makes sense, Lin Yunniang is a beauty, how ugly could her own brother be?

"Look at you, you're all sweaty from running. Come on, let's go home. It's lunchtime, stay for lunch."

This guy went all the way to bring her clothes, so they seem to be quite close.

"No need, sister, I'll go home to eat." Lin Hongwen hurriedly shook his head.

His sister is struggling to make ends meet; how could he possibly invite her to stay for a meal?

Lin Shuyun grabbed the person and left.

"Whether I'm your sister or you're my sister, just listen to me."
