As soon as I was reborn, my fiancé came to propose marriage!

Gao Yingming's cousin Gao Ze couldn't help but sneer when he saw how humble he was.

"Brother, they are just ordinary people, why are you being so polite to them?"

"shut up!"

Gao Yingming's face darkened and he started to scold Gao Ze directly. Gao Ze looked at him with dissatisfaction.

"Don't say such things again. When father was alive, he cared deeply for the people. After he died, the people also cared for him. If it weren't for father, how do you think the three of us brothers and sisters could enter the village?"

"Does anyone still care about your title as the county magistrate's son? They let us in because of your father, and we must not ruin the Gao family's reputation."

"understood."

Gao Ze responded reluctantly.

The maid Cai Huan suddenly ran out with a happy look on her face, "Master, the young lady woke up this morning and said a few words, and now she's asleep again!"

Hearing that his sister had woken up, Gao Yingming finally felt relieved.

There are only him and his sister Gao Yingying left in the Gao family now. If something happens to his sister, how can he face his parents in the underworld?

Gao Ze also changed his gloomy attitude and shouted that he wanted to go see his cousin. He has always liked his cousin and was naturally excited to hear that she woke up.

When Gao Yingying woke up again at night, her whole body ached. She opened her mouth to speak, but her throat was hoarse.

Fortunately, Caihuan was always there to watch over her. When she saw the young lady wake up, she immediately handed her half a cup of water, slowly helped Gao Yingying sit up, then picked up the cup and fed the water into her mouth.

Gao Yingying glanced at the dilapidated house and asked with disdain, "Why are we here?"

Her voice was terribly hoarse, but Caihuan still understood it. She explained, "It was the village chief of Yulin Village who took us in. Miss, we are safe now and don't have to worry about the road anymore."

"Oh! Safe?"

Gao Yingying sneered, "How can we be safe in such a shabby place?"

"I am the daughter of the county magistrate."

"Miss, although this place is shabby, we can still live here for a while. Besides, I heard from the villagers that the daughter of a high-ranking official in the capital lived in this house some time ago."

"But later on, for some unknown reason, the young lady disappeared inexplicably."

Gao Yingying was already dissatisfied with the living environment here. Now when she heard that a noble lady had disappeared here, she was so scared that she didn't dare to live here anymore. She got up and went to look for her brother.

"Miss, please put on your clothes first!"

Caihuan was getting anxious because there was not only the young master but also his cousin and Lin Ye in the room!

What if a lady goes out in disheveled clothes and ruins her reputation?

Gao Yingying still had some concerns, so she let Caihuan help her put on her clothes before she ran out.

She asked Caihuan to take her to Gao Yingming's house and knocked on the door without saying anything.

The lights in the room slowly lit up, and Gao Yingming came out wearing clothes. He opened the door and was very happy to see his sister. "Are you feeling better? Why are you running out so late at night?"

"Cai Huan, why don't you help the young lady go back and rest."

"elder brother........"

Gao Yingying started crying as soon as she opened her mouth. Gao Yingming couldn't help but feel distressed when he heard her cry like that. Although his sister was spoiled, she had never suffered any hardship since she was a child. Now she was seriously ill and looked extremely pitiful.

He touched her head distressedly and comforted her gently, "It's okay, we are safe now, stay in this village and don't worry anymore."

"What are you waiting for?"

Gao Yingying interrupted directly, crying even harder, "Brother, this place is terrible. Caihuan told me that a noble lady was lost here. Are you going to let me live here?"

"You don't hurt me anymore!"

"Even the daughter of a Beijing official could be lost in the village. Haven't you ever thought that they have bad intentions? Maybe they are coveting money, so they secretly tied people up and killed them, and embezzled their property!"

Gao Yingying thought of another possibility, "Maybe they are just after her beauty!"

When she thought of this possibility, she immediately crossed her arms and trembled with fear, "Brother, I don't want to stay here. This place is not only shabby and old, but also so dangerous."

"Did you listen to me?"

Gao Yingming shook his head helplessly. "You worry too much. The village chief told me about Miss Fang's incident. That lady met bandits on the road, so she stayed in Yulin Village. As for how she disappeared later, I don't know."

"Even her personal maid didn't know about the situation, and later the maid ran away."

"It's not their fault. They took them in out of kindness, just like they took us in out of kindness now."

"Don't think too much..."

"I don't care! My father is the county magistrate. Do you want me to spend the rest of my life in this poor little village? And marry another farmer? Brother, you have thought about this kind of life, but I don't!"

Gao Yingming's face darkened when he saw Gao Yingying's stubborn and arrogant look. He knew that his sister made such a fuss because she didn't want to stay in this village.

He patiently advised, "I would like to take you to the town or the county, but look at Shalin County. Daddy risked his life but couldn't protect the county. It's like hell on earth now. There are no rules at all."

"Although Yulin Village is small, the villagers are all kind and friendly. There are patrol teams patrolling at night, so at least safety is guaranteed."

"Is it definitely better outside than here? Isn't what you've seen and heard in the past half month enough to wake you up?"

"Hmph!" Miss Gao Yingying had a very bad temper. If her brother had scolded her like this at any other time, she would definitely go to her mother to cry and ask her mother to scold him.

Because her father is a righteous man and will not stand on her side, but now she is a weak woman and the only one she can rely on is her brother.

Even though I was dissatisfied, I understood that what my brother said made sense.

The world outside was in such chaos that even her father, whom she had always admired, could not quell the chaos in Shaling County. How could they find a place to settle down in this world?

Seeing that she didn't say anything, Gao Yingming knew that she had accepted it in her heart, so he instructed Caihuan, "Help the young lady go back to rest quickly. I will make her another dose of medicine tomorrow morning. She will be well soon."

"Yes, Master."

Caihuan responded politely, reached out to support Gao Yingying, and carefully went back to the room.

........

The next day, after Gao Yingying took the medicine, she found that Gao Yingming was not at home. When she asked Caihuan, she learned that he had gone to the village chief's house.

She was bored, so she put on her colorful ring and wanted to go for a walk in the village.

A few villagers passed by, and the women in the village obviously wanted to come forward and say hello to her, but they were discouraged by her disgusted look.
