When I was fleeing famine with supplies, I was caught by a rough man and gave birth to three childre

After the butler's back disappeared, the smile on Lin Zao's face gradually disappeared.

At this time, the breakfast she ordered was also delivered to her. Lin Zao was eating it expressionlessly while thinking about the prefect's intentions.

They were obviously up to no good. They were inviting heroes and friends to hunt for treasure together. Lin Zao guessed that they were looking for someone to be cannon fodder.

When there are so many people, once they fight for it, there will definitely be countless casualties.

The prefect's intention in finding these people must be to serve as cannon fodder, otherwise he would be so stupid and share the benefits with others?

The most important thing is that she deliberately hinted to the housekeeper that when she got the treasure, she would distribute it to him, but the housekeeper's expression was obviously dismissive.

It means that the housekeeper knew that she had no chance to get the treasure, or that she didn't even have a chance to walk to the place where the treasure was hidden.

Then the thing is self-evident.

However, the reason why Lin Zao did not reject the housekeeper outright was that she wanted to find an opportunity to sneak into the prefect's house and inquire about the news.

Why did the prefect have the opportunity to participate in the treasure hunt? Is it related to the second prince? It would be best if he could find something. If he couldn't find it, there would be no loss.

Thinking clearly, Lin Zao finished his breakfast quickly, and after settling the bill with the waiter, he asked him to bring his horse over.

Then they rushed towards Datong Town.

The most important thing for her now is to get the crystal core first.

After a fast journey, two days later, Lin Zao finally followed his memory and returned to Shangpo Village, Tang Jian's hometown.

Three crumbling loess houses, the straw roofs were basically blown away by the wind, leaving only the bare roof beams.

The entire Shangpo Village is desolate, with no trace of human life. There are only a few mud houses left, which are similar to those of the Tang family and can no longer be inhabited.

Lin Zao looked at the current scene in the village and could still remember her life here in the past.

Going to wash clothes in the river over there with a big belly, the scene of Mrs. Tang standing in the yard scolding Sang and Huaihuai, the scene of twins sitting at the door hungry and crying, the scene of Mrs. Tang standing at the door frowning and sighing...

Various scenes from the past appeared in her mind one by one.

Until everything became nothingness and turned into the desolate appearance in front of me.

Lin Zao sighed. Fortunately, those hardships were over, and good people will eventually be rewarded.

He reached out and pushed open the courtyard door. The door, which had turned into tattered wood, fell to the ground under the force of Lin Zao's strength, raising a cloud of dust.

Walking into the courtyard, there are two pieces of bare land, a dry well, and three earthen houses.

Of these three rooms, the one on the east is the room of Brother Tang's family, and the one in the middle is that of Old Man Tang and Mother Tang. It is separated in the middle, and the outside is used as a living room for dining and entertaining guests.

As for the remaining room, it was divided into three rooms. One was the bedroom of Tang Jian and Lin Zao, and later Lin Zao and his two children lived there.

One is used as a kitchen for cooking, and the last one is used as a utility room where various farm tools and firewood are piled.

After Lin Zao took a few glances at the house where he used to live, he walked towards Brother Tang's room.

According to what Mrs. Tang said at the time, she threw the crystal core disguised as a stone in their house, but she didn't pay attention to it afterwards.

Lin Zao carefully observed Mrs. Tang's expression at that time and knew that what Mrs. Tang said was true and there was no need to lie to her.

So from the moment Lin Zao entered the door, he searched every corner, and found not a single pebble, let alone stones.
