Eavesdropping on Fu Bao's inner thoughts, emptying the stored grain and fleeing the famine

The three of them watched helplessly as their younger sister and father disappeared before their eyes, leaving only an amber ring in the snow.

"Big brother, this..." Lian Yicheng looked incredulous, his finger instinctively pointing to the amber ring on the ground.

"Listen to my little sister. As for the rest, she'll explain when she comes out."

Lian Yijun was unaware of the strangeness of the matter, but he remembered Lian Rongrong's instructions.

Lian Yiyun bent down and picked up the amber ring from the ground. Through the ring, Lian Yiyun seemed to be able to see two figures inside.

“Isn’t this my little sister’s dowry?” Lian Yicheng stepped forward; he recognized the amber ring.

This ring originally belonged to my maternal grandmother. After my grandmother passed away, she left the ring to my mother. But for some reason, my mother would feel anxious and weak whenever she wore the ring.

On the contrary, the younger sister had worn the ring by chance not long before her marriage. Lian Yicheng remembered that after the younger sister put on the ring that day, she could not take it off no matter what she did.

The mother felt that the ring was destined for her younger sister, so she gave it to her as part of her dowry.

"Perhaps there's something special inside this ring." Lian Yijun carefully held the ring in her hand.

Lin Chuyue remained silent throughout, but she had a vague feeling that the matter of the ring might be as unusual as that of Xiao Fubao.

At this moment, Lian Rongrong, who was inside the ring's space, was completely unaware of what the people outside were thinking. It wasn't that she couldn't see or hear, but rather that her heart was filled with worry for her father.

Things inside the space are much lighter than outside, even people.

If she were outside, Lian Rongrong would definitely not be able to carry her father on her back, but inside the ring space, she could easily carry him on her back.

After entering the space, Lian Rongrong clearly felt that her father's breathing had become more even. Although he showed no signs of waking up, Lian Rongrong believed that this magical space would definitely save her father from danger.

Lian Rongrong had no medical knowledge, but she felt that since her father's whole body was frozen, he should be taken to a warm place.

Lian Rongrong still remembered Nuanxi from before. Although she didn't know if what she did was right or wrong, she felt that being able to do something in the current situation was much better than waiting for fate to pronounce its verdict.

Lian Rongrong carried Lian Jinghuai to the warm stream by the bamboo forest and carefully placed him in the stream.

A chill emanated from Lian Jinghuai's body, and the chill mixed with the mist of the warm stream, causing still water droplets to appear above the stream.

Each water droplet was distinct, like a crystal. The shadows of the father and daughter were reflected in the droplets, creating a serene and peaceful scene.

Lian Rongrong looked at the unusual scene before her, but she didn't know what it meant. All she could do was wait.

Time passed second by second, perhaps the time it takes for an incense stick to burn, or perhaps longer, until Lian Jinghuai finally opened his eyes slightly.

"Father, you're awake?" Lian Rongrong rushed forward upon seeing this.

Lian Jinghuai looked around in confusion; this place was so different from his memories before he fell into a coma.

"Wasn't I buried in the snow?" Lian Jinghuai asked, his lips slightly moving.

"You were buried in the snow, but we rescued you." Lian Rongrong wiped away her tears, her voice filled with barely concealed excitement.

"Where is this?" Lian Jinghuai looked around and asked again.

Lian Rongrong followed Lian Jinghuai's gaze and looked again at the space inside the ring. She slowly exhaled and then explained:

"This is the space inside the ring."

"Inside the ring?"

Lian Rongrong nodded, "Yes, it's the amber ring that was passed down in my maternal grandparents' family."

Upon hearing this, Lian Jinghuai frowned, then nodded slightly as if he understood.

"When I first saw that ring, I knew it was no ordinary item, but I never imagined it would be such a hidden gem."

Lian Jinghuai rested in the stream for a while longer and then felt his strength return.

As Lian Jinghuai emerged from the stream, the surrounding water droplets instantly fell into the warm water. A white mist reappeared above the stream.

"Father, please rest a little longer." Lian Rongrong was still worried about Lian Jinghuai's health.

But Lian Jinghuai shook his head and smiled, "Don't worry, girl, I'm fine now. They're probably still waiting anxiously outside."

Seeing that Lian Jinghuai's spirits had indeed improved a lot, Lian Rongrong stopped insisting. After all, the longer they stayed in the space, the greater the chance of being exposed.

With a slight thought, Lian Rongrong and her father appeared in front of the three people outside, while the amber ring on Lian Yijun's hand flashed green light and returned to Lian Rongrong's finger.

"Father, are you alright?" Seeing that Lian Jinghuai was unharmed, the three of them were very excited.

The Lian brothers even forgot to ask Lian Rongrong about the ring for a moment.

However, after calming down, Lian Yijun still turned his attention to Lian Rongrong.

"Little sister, what exactly is going on?"

From the moment she decided to bring her father into the space for treatment, Lian Rongrong had no intention of hiding the matter of the space.

Therefore, Lian Rongrong answered Lian Yijun and Lian Yicheng's questions in great detail.

Rongrong even told Rongrong about how she, her father, her sister-in-law, and Ru'er could hear Fu Bao's thoughts.

"Such a strange thing has happened in the world. It seems that Heaven has not forsaken the Lian family."

Lian Yijun sighed, a relieved smile appearing on her face.

"But this matter still needs to be kept from others. We are family, so we can trust everyone. But there are some people we can't trust!"

Lian Rongrong turned her gaze to the foot of the mountain, and Lian Yijun and Lian Yicheng immediately understood.

But then Lian Rongrong suddenly added to the three of them, "Second sister-in-law can't say either."

Lian Rongrong's words seemed to have no effect on Lian Yicheng, but Lian Yiyun asked with some confusion:

"What? Your eldest sister-in-law is family, but your second sister-in-law isn't?"

Lian Rongrong looked at Lian Yicheng somewhat awkwardly. She had thought her second brother would care at least a little, but unexpectedly, Lian Yicheng instead advised her eldest brother:

“My sister-in-law is right. Wenhui is different from my sister-in-law. It’s better to be cautious.”

Lian Yijun had always known that her younger brother and Wen Hui were estranged, so when Lian Yicheng said this, she said no more.

When Lian Jinghuai led the four children down the steep slope, the crowd at the foot of the mountain had been eagerly waiting.

Despite her seemingly strong demeanor, Lian's mother burst into tears upon seeing Lian Jinghuai.

The guards who came down early in the morning to report the news were even more incredulous. Just a moment ago, the general looked like he was on the verge of death, but in such a short time, he seemed to be perfectly fine.

"Miss is truly amazing, a real heroine!"

The old housekeeper gave a thumbs-up with tears in his eyes, but when he glanced at Wang Yue and her daughter out of the corner of his eye, he looked at them with extreme disgust.

However, this time Lian Xiuyan and her daughter seemed to be more sensible. Lian Xiuyan led Wang Yue to Lian Jinghuai.

"Kneel down before your uncle! If it weren't for him, you'd be dead!"

Wang Yue knelt obediently on the ground, crying and repenting, "It was Yue'er who was ignorant. I will never do it again. Please forgive me, Uncle."

Lian Rongrong couldn't be bothered to watch the hypocritical act of the mother and daughter. She walked past the crowd and stood in front of Lian's mother, only to hear Fu Bao's soft, cute voice complaining:

[What a hypocritical mother and daughter! They were just saying that my maternal grandfather owed them a life.]
