After the system ran, I took off with my family
Chapter 166 Conflict?
The five people from Qingsheng knew that the young lady's repeated instructions were for their own good, and they solemnly promised her that they would not run around and would definitely do as she said.
Lin Shuyue nodded in satisfaction, looked at the five people and said loudly: "Everyone, work hard. After this is completed, each of you will be rewarded with fifty taels of silver, and you will be given a holiday to have a good rest!"
Qing Sheng and the others blushed with excitement when they heard her words. You know, as servants, what job they do depends entirely on the words of their master, and they have no right to refuse.
After Lin Shuyue left in the morning, they were worried that they would have to stay on the island to cut wood. It was a deserted place and cutting trees would be hard and tiring. They were afraid that life would be difficult.
Now, after hearing what the young lady meant, they knew that as long as they cut down enough trees, they could leave, and they would also receive a reward.
Now, they had something to look forward to in their days. They felt their fatigue instantly dissipated, and they all responded loudly: "Thank you, Miss. We will definitely work hard!"
"Okay, I'll go back first."
After saying goodbye to a few people, Lin Shuyue followed the Xin Lu brothers back to the beach.
Xiao Jin had been waiting on the beach. After saying goodbye to her two brothers, she followed Xiao Jin and left the island.
In the evening, the tide had just receded on the beach behind Lanshan Mountain, revealing a large area of mudflats and reefs.
On the reefs, Qinghe and Qingzhi were concentrating on looking for conchs and abalone, which were their young lady's favorite to eat.
On the mudflat, Xue Bao, Xiao Huihui and Weifeng were fiddling with a big blue crab with their claws. The fur of the three little guys was all covered with mud and looked dirty.
At this time, Xiao Jin's cries came from far away on the sea. Qinghe, Xuebao and the others looked up and saw Xiao Jin flying over the fiery red sea. When it flew closer, they could see Lin Shuyue on Xiao Jin's back.
"Miss!"
"Sister is back!"
"Why are you here?" Lin Shuyue jumped off Xiao Jin's back.
Qingzhi stretched out the wooden barrel in her hand and said excitedly, "Miss, we picked up some conchs and abalone. We will ask Aunt Zhao to make your favorite spicy fried conch slices and braised abalone tonight."
"Sister, we'll be waiting for you here!" Olaf raised a dirty paw and answered quickly.
"You are so thoughtful." Lin Shuyue felt relieved when she saw Qinghe and Qingzhi, but she didn't know whether to laugh or cry when she saw the three dirty little ones. "Go wash them quickly, they are so dirty."
When the three Snow Baos went to the puddle on the reef to wash themselves, Lin Shuyue fed Xiao Jin some fruits and a bucket of spiritual spring water.
After the three little ones came back, she said goodbye to Xiao Jin, took the two little girls and Weifeng through the cave, and returned to Lanshan Village.
As soon as I got home, I happened to meet Lin An coming out of the martial arts training ground, sweating profusely.
"Xiao Ya, you're back? How are things going?" Lin An took the handkerchief handed to him by Qingyuan and wiped the sweat from his face.
Lin Shuyue put Xuebao and Xiao Huihui down, stood up and replied: "It's good, they are all very obedient, and we just need to send them food regularly in the future."
"That's good." Lin An nodded and prepared to go back to the backyard to take a shower. Suddenly he thought of something and turned to look at Lin Shuyue.
"By the way, little girl, a woman from the village came to our house today. She brought a basket of eggs and said she wanted to thank you for saving her life. Since your mother was not at home, I asked Steward Lin to receive her."
"Xiao Ya, what does "life-saving grace" mean?" Lin An was a little puzzled.
As soon as Lin Shuyue heard it, she knew that the woman her father was talking about was Da Niu's mother. She told Lin An roughly what happened yesterday evening.
“So that’s how it is.” Lin An suddenly realized and praised Lin Shuyue: “Xiaoya, you taught the villagers how to save people. This is a great kindness!”
"Dad, when will Mom come back?" Lin Shuyue didn't want to discuss this anymore, so she changed the subject.
Unexpectedly, when Lin An heard this, his face suddenly became a little embarrassed, and he stammered: "Maybe tomorrow, or the day after tomorrow."
As soon as he finished speaking, he walked towards the backyard, shouting, "Oh, I'm all sweaty and sticky. I have to take a shower quickly."
Lin Shuyue looked at his father's fleeing back and touched his chin. Could it be that his father and mother were having a conflict?
As night fell, in the village chief's home, Wang Youzhi's old wife Liu Meihua and eldest daughter-in-law Zhao Xiaolan were weaving straw sandals by the light of an oil lamp. The weather was getting hotter and hotter, and it was almost time for the men in the village to wear straw sandals.
"Hey, you said that Zhao Da Jiao is quite smart. Yesterday, the little girl from the Lin family saved her big cow, and today she came to the door with a basket of eggs."
Liu Meihua was weaving straw sandals skillfully with her hands and talking nonstop.
"She was a widow with a son who could barely feed herself, yet she scraped together a basket of eggs and sent it to the Lin family. Who would believe her if she said she didn't have the intention of currying favor with the Lin family?"
Zhao Xiaolan looked at her mother-in-law who was chattering nonstop with a forced smile and did not respond.
Then I heard Liu Meihua gloating, "What a pity. Zhao Dajiao eagerly approached, but in the end she didn't even see anyone. She said that only the housekeeper of the Lin family saw her. Tsk tsk...did she think the Lin family was so easy to curry favor with?"
Not knowing what she was thinking of, she smiled with an ambiguous smile, moved closer to Zhao Xiaolan, and lowered her voice and said, "However, if Zhao Da Jiao was a few years younger, she might still be like Yun Niang..."
Her tone was somewhat excited, and she didn't notice at all that her eldest daughter-in-law had a strange look on her face.
"What are you talking about?"
Wang Youzhi's voice suddenly sounded behind Liu Meihua, startling her. After she came to her senses, she patted her chest and turned to look at Wang Youzhi with a dark face, "What are you doing? You scared me to death."
"I think you are very bold!" Wang Youzhi glared at Liu Meihua and scolded her, "How many times have I told you not to talk about the Lin family behind their backs! Don't you understand what I'm saying?"
"What did I say?" Liu Meihua was instantly annoyed when she saw that the old man was going to scold her for the Lin family again. She raised her voice and
"You flatter others every day! Besides, I didn't say anything wrong about Yunniang. Someone saw Lin An and Yunniang talking in the pavilion in the lotus pond. He himself is not upright, so why should he be afraid of what others say?"
"You...you are an ignorant person. If I really had something, would I be stupid enough to let you see it? It's obviously you women who are making up stories about me."
Wang Youzhi was so angry that his face turned red. It was he who went to the Lin family to ask for help from Yunniang. If anything really happened to Lin An and Yunniang, the three siblings of the Lin family would definitely vent their anger on him for Madam Lin.
It was obvious that the three siblings were not people who were easy to fool, especially Miss Lin. It was said that all the restaurants in the Lin county were run by this girl.
If she is irritated, what will happen to the peppers grown by the villagers? How come this old woman doesn't understand at all and only causes trouble?
