After the zombies traveled through time, they were tricked by the villain into becoming a stepmother

Chen Lingfang sighed in understanding.

It is said that family disgrace should not be made public, and he could understand that very well, especially since there were two little girls involved.

It seems that I have to write a letter back to the capital and ask my family to find out the news privately, and then send these children back quietly. I can save their face and accept their favor with peace of mind, right?

After he figured it out, he immediately nodded in agreement.

"You can go home without worry. It is my job to take good care of these children."

Lin Yuanshan saluted again.

"Thank you for your trouble, sir. It's getting late, and I and others will not trouble you here. We will leave now."

"Well, let's go."

The county lieutenant, who knew how to be an official and a man, nodded again to the master and reiterated loudly the matter that the master was most concerned about.

"I will coordinate the numbers as soon as possible and submit them to the county magistrate for approval. I estimate that in ten days, Miss Chu, you can come to the county government to claim the bounty."

Chen Lingfang was taught since childhood that he must give high respect to people with real skills. So in his mouth, Chu Chi was not Mrs. Lin from beginning to end, but Lady Chu.

Chu Chi, who was called out for a reminder, blinked expressionlessly.

Just now, in order to find ways to make money, my brain was running at high load for many times. Not surprisingly, the CPU, which was not very reliable to begin with, has been a little overheated.

Now her brain circuit has returned to slow rotation and started self-regulating mode, and can only make her nod her head mechanically.

Lin Yuanshan grabbed his son's arm and dragged him out. Lin Youan also quickly pulled his mother, who was obviously not in the right state, and followed his uncle to quickly leave the bandit's lair.

"Dad, wait a minute. I'll go ask the escort leader if he needs my help..."

Lin Yousheng's weak request was slapped back by his own father without even turning his head.

"What are you asking? The adults are taking care of all those things. Why do you, a little bastard, need to run around in there?"

"Then, there are those kids..."

"That's not our business, the county lieutenant is in charge of everything!

Just now, those bandits also confessed that they were the ones who were intercepted on the way, right? Master Chen knows everything, so you should stop worrying about it.

From now on, shut up and don't let me slap you in front of so many people!"

Lin Yuanshan growled helplessly. It was tiring for him to be such a good father with two sons who were so stupid.

Ugh.

Lin Yousheng, who was inexplicably scolded, became obedient. Although there were still some things he couldn't figure out, he didn't dare to continue to do stupid things under his father's black face. He could only obediently hang his head and drag his lame leg, limping step by step.

But although he was honest, his second aunt, who had finally come to her senses, suddenly asked.

"An An, were those little cubs just now saying they wanted to give me money?"

I slowly turned it over in my mind for a long time, and finally figured out the four words "substantial reward".

Chu Chi's legs, which were dragged down by his dream of wealth, were instantly nailed to the mountain road in front of the village's gate. He was unwilling to move forward no matter what.

"No, mother, don't always think about good things. The government is in charge of cleaning up the mess. Let's not delay them from doing their work. Let's go home quickly, it's almost dark!"

It can be said that he was being perfunctory and not sincere enough. Even someone as dull as his mother felt that something didn't make sense.

Chu Chi frowned in confusion and tilted his head, muttering a little unconfidently.

"But just now, didn't they say they would reward me handsomely? Doesn't that mean they will give me a lot of money?"

As he spoke, his eyes began to light up again. What is money? It is a family business, food, and lots of meat!

No, if you don’t understand something, you must ask for clarification, otherwise you may easily miss out on a hundred million!

"An An, is this the case?"

The little boy's eyes flashed, he patted his mother's arm and began to speak earnestly.

"Mom, listen to me. The meaning of what you just heard may be correct or incorrect.

They said they would pay, but they didn’t say how much, right?”

He never mentioned that ordinary people like them could not get involved in the various concerns of the powerful families. Because even if he did, his mother would definitely not understand it with her current brain.

Lin Youan is not an ordinary eight-year-old child. He has been smart since he was a child and has experienced some special things. In addition, his father and teacher have taught him the ways of the world, so he can understand many things.

He could more or less guess what kind of troubles those kids would have. This was also the reason why Lin Yuanshan didn't want his family to get involved.

Small people naturally have their own way of survival, which can be summed up in just eight words.

Be careful in what you say and do, and keep your original heart.

Don't blindly pursue opportunities. After all, some things may seem like great wealth, but if you are not careful, they may lead to fatal disasters!

Thinking of this, his eyes became calmer.

"Mom, Yingzhou Prefecture is quite far from here. The capital is in front of Yingzhou Prefecture, and it is even farther from here. I heard that we are still hundreds of miles away from the capital!

If you go to escort them home, when will you be back? My sister and I will miss mom when we are at home. What if someone bullies us when you are not at home?

Mother, are you going to leave me and Qianqian just to make money?"

As he spoke, his eyes began to turn red. The choking sound of his sobs made Lin Yuanshan, who was standing in front of him and stopped, feel disgusted!

Can't this little bastard change his tactics? He is getting older and older, so what's the point of crying in front of his mother every day?

"Don't cry, An An. Let me think about it."

Although Chu Chi felt that there seemed to be some problems, she couldn't figure it out and could only comfort the cub reflexively.

He raised his head to look at the officers and soldiers passing by from time to time. The furtive look in their eyes as if they were looking at something rare made the little boy frown.

In public, he couldn't explain the connection to his mother in detail. He could only rub his eyes and speak in a tearful voice.

"Mom, it's almost dark. Kanan hasn't seen you all day. She must be looking for you everywhere in the house at this hour. Who knows how miserable she must be..."

The rest is self-explanatory, and it all depends on the mother's imagination. When she thought of her little cub crying and crawling around looking for her, the nerve in Chu Chi's brain about making money was successfully torn off by Lin Youan.

"Let's go home!"

He lifted up his tiger-toe shoes, raised his arms and waved a few times at Hu Huahua who was hiding not far away, and then disappeared with a whoosh.
