Mrs. Zhao was already old, but this was the first time someone had been so shameless and rude in front of her. When she was about to speak, Lin Yinan reached out and separated her.

She took two steps closer and stared at Zhu Jinhui coldly, understanding how difficult it was for her to be a mother. "The doctor is taking good care of him, so you don't have to worry?"

Su Kunliang ran over breathlessly from a distance.

He stepped forward and grabbed Zhu Jinhui, bowing to Mrs. Zhao with an apologetic look on his face, "I'm really sorry, she was very anxious when she heard that Yunzhi was injured." Then he turned to Zhu Jinhui and said, "Don't go crazy here, come back with me."

Seeing his gloomy face, Zhu Jinhui didn't know what to say and could only follow him out obediently.

Old Madam Zhao looked at Zhu Jinhui who was being dragged away and sighed, "Shulan, the two families haven't even gotten married yet, and Zhu is so dissatisfied with Anan. This marriage..."

Li Shulan lowered her eyes, she was also worried!

Yunzhi is a good child and a perfect match for Anan. But judging from Jinhui's attitude towards Anan several times, I think Jinhui is not satisfied with this marriage.

Seeing her mother hesitant, Lin Yinan said, "Mom, marriage is a happy event. Find a suitable opportunity to cancel the marriage."

Lin Yinan had something else to do, so she left in a hurry, leaving the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law looking at each other in bewilderment.

Zhang glanced at her soft-tempered sister-in-law and said, "Sister-in-law, Anan is a person with strong opinions. If you insist on letting Anan marry, Zhu might find ways to make trouble for Anan in the future."

Lin Yinan no longer insisted on this topic.

She came to the tent where Huang Qingqing and Yao lived. Huang Susu, who was only eight years old, was lighting a fire in front of a simple stove.

"Susu, where are your mother and sister?"

Huang Susu raised her head and saw that the person was Lin Yinan. She grinned happily, but she looked a little funny because she had lost two front teeth.

"Sister Anan, my mother and sister went out to collect firewood and dig wild vegetables."

"Then I'll wait for them here."

The pot was bubbling loudly, and it looked like it was about to push the lid off and overflow. The girl found a piece of cloth, wrapped her hands, and quickly lifted the lid.

The inside is cooked with corn, wild vegetable porridge and sweet potatoes.

Not long after, Huang Qingqing and her maid came back carrying a bundle of firewood each, followed by Yao and a nanny carrying a basket.

"Sister Anan, why are you here?" Huang Qingqing threw the firewood on her back to the open space next to her and brushed off the dust on her body.

Lin Yinan once saved her and her mother, and Huang Qingqing felt an inexplicable sense of closeness and trust towards her.

Without Ge's pressure, Yao now understood and relaxed, "Anan, I heard that you were injured. Is everything okay?"

Lin Yinan gently shook his injured hand, "It's just a minor injury. I saw Huang Yinyin in the bandit camp..."

Then she told the Yao mother and daughter in detail what happened in the bandit camp.

Yao's tears immediately welled up after hearing this. She had been married to Huang Guichang for more than ten years. Although she was a concubine, Huang Guichang doted on her very much. They had three children together and their relationship was very deep.

The nanny patted her chest in fear and said, "We should thank the master for abandoning us and saving our lives."

Huang Qingqing's eyes were dull and she obviously hadn't recovered yet.

When she was in Xincheng, her father was the head of the military department. Although she was born out of wedlock, even though Ge disliked her mother, she never treated her badly in terms of food, clothing, and education.

Now, suddenly hearing that they were all in trouble, my heart suddenly felt empty.

Huang Qingqing couldn't help but sigh, "When I knew that my father was going to Qingdao County to live with my uncle, I was very happy. Even if I am a concubine's daughter, it doesn't matter. I will still be a lady from an official family and live a life of luxury."

"But when Dad told Mom that because Madam had stopped us, he asked us to wait for him in Gudao County first. He would settle us there and then send someone to pick us up. My heart suddenly fell from the clouds to the bottom of the valley. I hated them so much. Why did they leave Mom and my three siblings behind?"

"Now that they are all dead, my heart is hollowed out. All hope is gone."

"Sister Anan, tell me, how are we going to live in the future?"

Huang Qingqing said this, looking at Lin Yinan, and her eyes passed through her to look at her confused future.

Lin Yinan listened to her quietly. There were busy people coming and going around the camp. Even though the road ahead was confusing, they were all trying hard to live.

She said in a cold voice, "Life itself is full of hope and disappointment, and there are many uncertainties. Dreams and reality are only a hair's breadth apart. Perhaps this is the life we ​​have to face."

“We must learn not to pin our hopes on others. Only when we become strong can our lives not be controlled by others.”

Huang Qingqing repeated this sentence over and over again. Lin Yinan in front of her was only one year older than her. If she could do it, she could definitely do it too.

From then on, Huang Qingqing's character became extremely tough and she became the pillar of the Yao family and several children.

Yun Mo and his companions had already finished the meeting with the village chief. The village eldest son, Lin Fuzheng, was holding a gong and going door to door to inform everyone that they would set off into the mountains the next morning.

The villagers in the entire camp became busy, and no one dared to speak out in opposition, because it was useless. The Yun family and the village chief said that anyone who had any objections could stay.

Leaving alone in troubled times is simply courting self-destruction.

Therefore, everyone was busy packing up, afraid of being left behind.

It was dark the next day.

The people from Linjia Village and the Yun family left the valley with torches.

Because there were so many people and a lot of luggage, everyone was carrying large and small bags and baskets as they walked through the mountains and forests.

After nearly an hour's journey, everyone finally saw the tall watchtowers on both sides of the bandit camp's gate.

After the Yun family and the villagers’ promotion yesterday, when everyone saw this watchtower, they all turned to look at Lin Yinan, their eyes full of disbelief.

They couldn't imagine how a fifteen-year-old girl could possess such great energy and take down the bandits on the watchtower in one fell swoop.

Yu Suqin, who was standing in the middle of the team, wished she could bury her head in the ground to reduce her presence.

Yunye heard the report from the secret guard and came out with a small group of people.

He first came to his own team, carefully carried his pregnant wife down, held her hand, and led the team to the courtyard in front of the meeting hall.

Yun Ye looked at the Linjia Village patriarch and the village chief, cleared his throat and said, "Patriarch Lin, village chief, I want to discuss the issue of housing allocation with you two."

The clan leader was old, and he signaled to the village chief that he would not get involved in the matter.

There were many undisciplined troublemakers in the village, and the village chief didn't want to do such a thankless task, so he just threw the blame away.

"Well, Second Young Master Yun, just make your own arrangements. We have no objection."

Yun Mo glanced at the two old guys who were blaming each other, strode forward and whispered in Yun Ye's ear, briefly telling him what happened in the camp yesterday.

Yunye and his elder brother have been following their father since they were young. This little thing is not difficult for him at all, and he instantly had an idea in his mind.

"Since the clan leader and village chief have entrusted me with this important task, we will make arrangements based on the merits of capturing the village this time."

"I have an opinion!" someone in the crowd shouted.

Yunye's expression became stern, his eyes were sharp and cold, he pointed to the door, and said majestically, "The door is over there, anyone who has any objections can leave now!"
