Transmigrated into a Farmhouse: The Stepmother Spoils Her Child to the Heavens

Xiao Chunhua was clearly being lectured by her brother, but she didn't care at all. She clung tightly to Gu Sanhu and said, "I know, I know. I will definitely listen to what you say from now on, Third Brother."

"From now on, Third Brother, I will learn whatever you teach me. I promise I won't embarrass you."

Gu Sanhu looked at his sister helplessly, not knowing what to say!

On the other side, Lin Cai is also on the mountain. There are several mountains near Yangjia Village. She asked the village chief, who said that those mountains are all unclaimed.

It doesn't matter what's on the list, or what anyone has obtained from it, it doesn't matter and doesn't need to be handed over. Of course, if that thing is related to the issues raised above, then it must be handed over to the authorities.

Lin Cai thought about it and felt it was impossible; she probably didn't have that kind of luck. So she took a wood-chopping knife and a basket on her back and went up the mountain.

She searched in the mountains and forests. Although it had stopped snowing, the weather was still very cold, and there were hardly any green leaves on the mountain. It looked desolate.

Lin Cai held the wood-chopping knife in her hand, cutting a path as she walked. She didn't know how long she had walked, but she suddenly stopped and stared at what was in front of her for several moments.

After confirming that she hadn't misread it, Lin Cai ran over immediately, and sure enough, she hadn't misread it.

She saw a dead tree with many fresh mushrooms on it, mushrooms that Lin Cai recognized.

I just didn't expect that these mushrooms could grow in such cold weather.

She picked all the mushrooms off the dead tree. After picking a few here and there from one dead tree, there were still enough mushrooms for two meals.

After picking the mushrooms, Lin Cai continued walking forward with her basket on her back. After walking for a while, just as she was about to turn back to look for more, she smelled a bloody odor.

Upon smelling the odor, Lin Cai instantly felt terrible!

In general, when you encounter such a situation, something unlucky is bound to happen, or you'll meet an unlucky person. Whether it's the former or the latter, Lin Cai doesn't want to experience or come into contact with it. Right now, she just wants to leave this place as soon as possible.

She wanted to leave this place as soon as possible, but fate was not on her side. Just as she was about to return the way she came, a gleaming sword appeared at her neck as soon as she turned around.

Feeling the chill on her neck, Lin Cai wanted to curse. What kind of damn luck did she have? How could she run into something like this as soon as she stepped out the door?

With a sword at his neck, there was no other way but to leave. Lin Cai stood there without moving an inch.

"Brother, I have no grudge against you and I don't even know you. Isn't what you're doing a bit inappropriate?"

"I'm just an ordinary person who came up the mountain looking for food. Otherwise, if you don't turn around and leave now, we can pretend we've never met, okay?"

"Let me tell you, I have four children at home. Those four children are waiting to be fed. If I don't go back, those four children will be doomed!"

Lin Cai rambled on and on, but the people behind her didn't react at all. She used a twig to push the sword off her neck, and surprisingly, it actually came off.

She not only pushed the sword off her neck, but it also seemed to knock down the person behind her, because the person behind her fell down with a thud the moment the sword fell.

Upon hearing the sound, Lin Cai turned around and kicked the person. Just as she was about to kick a second time, she stopped because the person seemed somewhat familiar to her.

It wasn't just that it seemed familiar; it really felt somewhat familiar, and in a very familiar way. Sure enough, when Lin Cai squatted down and turned the person over, her lips twitched.

She was truly exasperated with this person. After suffering so many injuries, instead of running home, why did he choose to run up the mountain?

It was the same before, and it's still the same now. If I don't go up the mountain or no one else does, and he just lies here like this, wouldn't he get eaten?

Seeing the injured Gu Zhan, Lin Cai helped him up. Since they couldn't find any medicinal herbs on the mountain, they could only take him back first.

Fortunately, their place wasn't far from the mountain, and they could go back from the back. To avoid being discovered, Lin Cai led the injured Gu Zhan back from the back.

When Gu Ershi heard the noise and went to the back to pick up the person, he was somewhat surprised. He did not expect that his master was still there, and that he had suffered so many injuries.

"Mother, what's wrong with Uncle Gu? Is he in a lot of pain?"

"Xiao Chunhua, you should keep those two questions and ask him yourself when he wakes up, because I can't answer them for you."

They had just moved here and didn't have any medicinal herbs. If they wanted to see a doctor, they would have to go to a doctor, but it wasn't appropriate to go now because they didn't know how this person got his injuries.

On the other side, Gu Nan was practically scratching his scalp raw because his master had disappeared right under his nose.

He had clearly kept an eye on the person, but for some reason, they suddenly disappeared. He searched for a long time, looking everywhere he could think of, but he still couldn't find them.

Since he couldn't go looking for people in a big way, Gu Nan didn't know what to do.

Upon hearing this news, Gu Bei lured those people away and returned to find that his master was missing. He stared wide-eyed at Gu Nan.

"Gone? How could he be gone? Haven't you always been with your master? How could someone you've been following just disappear?"

“I have indeed been following him, but my master has simply disappeared, and we've searched many places without finding him. I suspect…”

"Impossible, absolutely impossible. Your suspicion is completely unfounded. If such a thing were true, I would have known long ago."

Gu Bei knew that Gu Nan suspected that their master had been taken away by someone else, but that was simply impossible.

Putting aside whether their master could actually be taken away, even if he were, it's impossible for him to be completely unaware.

He had informants throughout the entire city of Linjiang, all for the purpose of finding those who deliberately caused trouble.

But none of his informants told him that their master had been taken away!

While the two were still speculating, the person in question had already woken up elsewhere. He grabbed Lin Cai and said, "There's no need to find a doctor. I'm fine now. Just let me rest for a few days, and my wound will heal. There's no need for any trouble."

Hearing what he said, Lin Cai wanted to hit him with a hammer: "Who do you think you are? Are you made of iron? You think you can get better in a few days? Why were you lying in bed for more than half a month before?"
