A massive famine! The whole family travels through time together, and with their spatial abilities,
Chapter 188 The shattered Lin family has been reduced to fighting over a single coffin!
"Wanwan, do you have any way to get into the city?" Lin Wufeng looked weak and ashen, which was quite frightening.
Lin Wanwan wanted to enter the city as soon as possible more than anyone else.
She had a precognitive dream last night.
In the dream, the Lin family failed to enter Pingyang Prefecture in time, and Lin Wufeng's injuries worsened drastically, almost to the point of death.
After losing his only son, Lin Wuchong lost all his energy and spirit, and his temperament became unpredictable, extremely gloomy, irritable and easily angered.
Auntie San also became mentally unstable and couldn't even take care of their twin daughters.
In addition, supplies were lost time and time again, and there was no way to replenish them.
The morale of the entire Lin family was low.
Lin Wanwan was worried about uncontrollable changes.
The greatest threat was the Northern Barbarian army behind them.
Fortunately, Qinzhou Prefecture temporarily repelled the Northern Barbarian army, but no one knows when the Northern Barbarian army will regroup and return to fight again.
What Lin Wanwan felt most anxious about was that the main force of the Northern Barbarians attacking from Yongzhou would enter Cangzhou Prefecture in no more than five days.
If they do not leave Pingyang Prefecture and enter Cangzhou Prefecture as soon as possible, they may be blocked outside by the Northern Barbarian army.
There could be unpredictable dangers at any time.
Looking at the expectant look in her father's eyes, Lin Wanwan felt a pang of sadness.
What is this?
I thought that by returning to the Lin family ahead of time, I could strategize and control everything.
However, reality was quite different from what she had imagined.
It would be better to stay in the Su family and live with Su's parents.
I wonder how Shen Shuli is doing these days...
They probably aren't much better than me, right?
Seeing that Lin Wanwan did not answer for a long time, Lin Wufeng knew that she did not have a good solution for the time being, and the light in his eyes dimmed inch by inch.
"Boss, take a few men and look around carefully. If there's an opportunity, we can make our move tonight," Lin Wufeng whispered to Lin Jingchen.
Lin Jingchen nodded in agreement: "Yes, Father, I understand. Please hang in there a little longer, we'll be in the capital soon, you absolutely cannot get hurt."
Lin Wufeng understood what his son meant.
He is the head of the Lin family.
The future of the entire Lin family rests on his shoulders. He hasn't had time to pave the way for his eldest son yet, so he can't just leave like this.
There were many refugees along the way.
Among them are many wealthy families with good financial standing.
Lin Jingchen had his eye on several teams that appeared to be carrying a lot of supplies.
into the night.
In the pitch-black night.
One after another, the cries of despair from humanity rose and fell.
The next morning.
The Lin family successfully entered the city with the supplies they had acquired with great difficulty.
The Lin family's group shrank further.
They entered Pingyang Prefecture.
Lin Jingchen immediately took his parents to a clinic for treatment, while the others were placed in a very ordinary inn.
The parents were seriously injured and unable to take charge.
My second aunt is too scheming; we can't let her interfere in the Lin family's affairs.
The third uncle and aunt were somewhat mentally unstable, their minds preoccupied with their deceased son.
There are still legitimate daughters in the second and third branches of the family, but women are not allowed to interfere in important family matters that are not internal affairs of the inner quarters.
The only people in the Lin family who can take charge are Lin Jingchen and his younger brother Lin Jingting.
But Lin Wanwan is an exception.
Lin Jingchen had no choice but to step forward and take charge, and he was happy to bring Lin Wanwan along.
Because Lin Wanwan is quick-witted, she can always provide him with excellent advice at the right time.
"Sister, I'm going to the coffin shop to order a few coffins. Keep an eye on everything else. We need to get back to the capital as soon as possible; we can't delay any longer," Lin Jingchen instructed.
Lin Wanwan nodded and said, "Okay, I understand, big brother. Go and come back quickly."
Watching Lin Jingchen leave with his men, Lin Wanwan immediately arranged various matters for her servants.
For example, sorting through the supplies acquired the night before, checking for any omissions or deficiencies, and applying medication to the corpses to mask the stench.
Seeing that no one was paying attention to her, Lin Wanwan secretly hid some of the silver she had earned the night before.
After arranging everything, she told her maid to go out for a while and then left the inn.
She had something important on her mind.
Somewhere in Pingyang Prefecture, she was waiting to rescue someone.
But Lin Wanwan waited for a long time.
They couldn't wait for the person they wanted to wait for.
The sun gradually set in the west.
Lin Wanwan's heart, which had been hanging in suspense, was completely dead.
Lin Wanwan returned to the inn.
Lin Jingchen has returned.
Seeing Lin Wanwan return to her room with a bad expression, he couldn't help but go up to her with concern, "Wanwan, what happened? Why do you look so pale?"
"It's nothing, brother. Have you ordered the coffin yet?" Lin Wanwan changed the subject.
"No, I went to all the major coffin shops in the city and only found one coffin."
Lin Jingchen had to pay a high price to snatch this coffin from someone else.
The world is in chaos these days.
The coffin shop is doing extremely well; bookings are booked up for a year in advance.
Some people wanted to place last-minute orders, but they couldn't get them at all.
"What should we do?" Lin Wanwan asked anxiously.
The three corpses were so smelly that she felt she would run away if they weren't dealt with soon.
Hearing their conversation, Lin Wuchong from next door immediately ran out of his room and rushed in.
"Jingchen, you found a coffin? Hurry up and prepare my Rui'er's body for burial. I really can't bear to leave him like this any longer." Lin Wuchong excitedly grabbed Lin Jingchen's hand and pulled him away.
Lin Jingchen was very embarrassed.
There was only one coffin.
His younger brother and sister-in-law also need coffins, so how could he possibly give them to his cousin first?
"Third Uncle, there's only one coffin. I've already had Jingxuan put in his body for burial. I'll find a way to get two more coffins," Lin Jingchen explained awkwardly.
Upon hearing this, Lin Wuchong's originally scarlet eyes were instantly filled with madness.
He glared angrily at Lin Jingchen and roared, "Why didn't you give my Rui'er first? Isn't he your own brother? How can you be so selfish! I want you to get Jingxuan out right now and put my son in!"
The more Lin Wuchong spoke, the less he could control his emotions, and he reached out to attack Lin Jingchen.
Lin Jingchen was caught off guard and was punched so hard that he staggered back several steps, blood instantly spilling from the corner of his mouth.
Lin Jingchen suppressed his anger.
He knew his third uncle was in a bad mood, and since he was an elder, he couldn't fight back; he could only grit his teeth and bear it.
Lin Wuchong showed no remorse and even tried to attack Lin Jingchen.
Fortunately, the guards outside noticed something was wrong and immediately came in to protect Lin Jingchen behind them.
Lin Wuchong's attacks all landed on the guards.
The guards' duty was to protect Lin Jingchen, but Lin Wuchong was also the head of the Lin family, so he could only grit his teeth and endure the attacks.
Unable to bear seeing his guard continue to be beaten, Lin Jingchen immediately ordered other guards to come in and help, knocking him unconscious and taking him back to his room.
Lin Jingting also returned from outside.
Seeing that his third uncle was being carried back, he inquired about the reason.
After understanding the situation, Lin Jingting felt helpless.
In such matters, we can only prioritize our own people; there's no reason to prioritize others.
He felt that his older brother's actions were correct.
"Brother, the doctor said that Father and Mother's condition is a bit complicated, and they will probably need to be observed for another day."
"Then let's wait another day," Lin Jingchen said helplessly.
Lin Wanwan became anxious when she heard that she had to wait another day.
