Chapter 93 I found him in the mountains two days ago

When Lin Xin returned to the village after three days of leisure in the space, she heard about the strange things He Luan'er had done, and her jaw almost dropped to the ground.

"Really?" She asked with shining eyes as she looked at the foreman who was digging the foundation of the wall with a pickaxe.

"Really? He Luan'er's mother said she would marry her off in the next couple of days, but I heard her mother sold her off. As for where she was sold to, I'm not sure yet." Although he was gossiping about others, Mo Ziyuan's expression and tone gave Lin Xin the feeling that he was discussing national affairs.

Even the little prince in his arms was sucking his fingers with a serious face. When he finished speaking, he immediately stretched out his chubby hands towards Lin Xin, crying "Ahhh" and asking for a hug.

When Lin Xin traveled through time, Lin Nan was already three years old and no longer a baby. The situation was urgent before and she had no time to think about anything else. Now looking at this chubby little ball, she remembered that she seemed to have never interacted with such a young child.

"Ah~" The little fat boy was dissatisfied when he saw that Lin Xin didn't pick him up, and his little mouth kept making "ah ah ah" sounds in protest.

"Wow, you have quite a temper! It seems you knew you were running for your life, so you were holding it in, right?" Lin Xin took him in her arms, tapping his little nose and said.

The little prince lay on Lin Xin's shoulder, feeling satisfied. One of his little hands tightly hugged her neck, and the other hand was put into his mouth again.

"It's better to sell it. It'll save me from bothering me later." Lin Xin said to Mo Ziyuan after she had comforted the little grandson. She knew exactly why He Luan'er came here, but she never expected her to target the foreman. Was she planning to let the foreman keep the things he dug up for himself? Or was she planning to divide it among the workers?
Lin Xin shook her head, feeling that she couldn't seem to understand the original heroine's train of thought. No wonder she was just a cannon fodder in the original text!
"How have you been these days?" Mo Ziyuan asked after looking at Lin Xin.

"It's fine! I eat well and sleep well." Lin Xin turned around in front of him, and the hem of her skirt lifted up a circular arc and then fell down. Mo Ziyuan suddenly felt that his throat seemed a little dry, and he wanted to drink water.

"Ahem, by the way, we are planning to move tomorrow. How about you prepare a nice meal for us? It will be like a housewarming party." Mo Ziyuan cleared his throat and said.

"No problem! I'll go into the mountains later to see if there are any big ones I can bring back to add to the dishes." Lin Xin agreed readily.

"No, we'll prepare the things ourselves, you just need to be responsible for it."

"That's fine. Whatever you make, I'll keep it and make it delicious for you."

"We definitely believe in your craftsmanship."

"Where's Nannan? Has she been obedient these days? Has she been naughty?" She had been busy in the space for the past three days and didn't feel anything. But when she returned to the village, she felt like something was missing and she felt a little uncomfortable.

"He has been living with Elder Cui. I've visited him twice. They get along very well. I guess in a while, your position in his heart as his sister won't be as important as our master's." Mo Ziyuan replied with a smile.

Lin Xin always felt that his words were a little strange, as if he was trying to sow discord between them. But looking at the serious look in his dark eyes, she felt that she was overthinking it.

"It doesn't matter. He'll be independent sooner or later," Lin Xin said, waving her hand. "Besides, it's not good for a boy like him to always be with a girl like me. My father is gone, so you'll have to take care of him more in the future."

"As long as you don't mind, I can teach him martial arts in the future." Mo Ziyuan immediately offered to be Lin Nan's martial arts master. "That's great! I'm thinking of finding him a martial arts master in the future!" Lin Xin knew her situation. Her martial arts skills were all honed from killing zombies during the apocalypse, so it wouldn't be suitable for Lin Nan to learn. Mo Ziyuan came from a family of military commanders, so his martial arts skills must have been systematically trained. It would be perfect for Lin Nan to learn from him.

Mo Ziyuan was delighted, "Then it's settled."

Lin Xin nodded, but she was also a little puzzled. Why did he, the one taking in a disciple, seem more anxious than she, the parent? Thinking back to how Cui Shi had insisted on taking in a disciple, Lin Xin felt like she had finally understood. Could it be that Lin Nan was truly a gifted all-rounder, both civil and military?
If Mo Ziyuan knew what she was thinking, he would probably vomit three liters of blood. He was clearly interested in his apprentice's sister and was calculating that whoever was close to her would get the upper hand. How could it be misinterpreted like this?

However, he was unaware of Lin Xin's psychological activities, so both parties felt that the other party had met their hopes and were very happy.

"Ms. Lin, if you have no objection to the layout of the house, we will start construction." The foreman put down the pickaxe in his hand, wiped the sweat from his face, walked over and said to Lin Xin.

As soon as she saw him, Lin Xin couldn't help but imagine He Luan'er crawling into his bed that night. She wanted to laugh but had to suppress it, so she nodded hurriedly and said, "I don't have any objections. As long as I can live comfortably, that's fine."

The foreman nodded, went back to pick up the pickaxe and continued digging the hole.

He was very depressed these past two days. His workers teased him a lot. Someone even asked him how he could casually say that he would sell people to a brothel. He asked if he had done so before. He was so angry that he beat up the worker, which made everyone laugh.

That afternoon, Lin Xin went back to town with Mo Ziyuan and the others. She hadn't seen her sister for three days. As soon as Lin Nan saw her, he ran over and hugged her neck and acted coquettishly. Then he took the custard buns she made for him and shared them with Cui Shi and Meng Yichen.

That night, Lin Xin stayed in Cui Shi's clinic, and the next day she followed Meng Yichen's carriage back to the village.

As soon as she entered the village, she felt something was wrong. Many villagers began to point and talk at the carriage after they passed by. Lin Xin had excellent hearing and heard their discussions clearly. They actually said that as a woman, she was hanging out with men all day, which was immoral and should be expelled from the family tree so as not to bring shame to the reputation of the girls in the clan. What's more, some even said that the little prince was her bastard who was born outside.

Everyone's attitude towards her was not like this yesterday, but it became like this overnight. She didn't believe that no one was involved.

In fact, she doesn't care about these discussions. Let them talk! She knows what she is doing. She lives for herself, not for others to see.

But as soon as she got off the carriage, she saw Lin Jing waiting for her at her house.

"Uncle Jing? Why are you here? My family is building a house now, and everything is a mess. It's really difficult to entertain you." Lin Xin, who had some guesses about his purpose, walked over with the little grandson in her arms and said calmly.

"Xin girl," Lin Jing was a little embarrassed to speak. He licked his lips several times before saying, "Tell Uncle Jing the truth. Who is this child?"

"Him!" Lin Xin weighed the little boy in her arms and answered with a smile, "I found him in the mountains a few days ago. His parents were killed by wild animals at the time, so I held him under my body to prevent him from being harmed."
