Chapter 81: Entering Su’s house for the first time

Seeing Xiao Lin Yu's pondering gaze on her, You Jin couldn't help but feel a little self-conscious. She dryly coughed and spoke, "Thank you Gentleman Xiao for saving my life. The sun has already set. It seems you won't be able to reach the city in time. How about staying a night at our house?"

On the dim official road, people were standing on both sides. The hot summer wind had cooled down a bit, Xiao Lin Yu nodded: "Then we'll have trouble you. What do you plan to do with these bandits, Miss Su?"

"Gentleman Xiao, don't make fun of me. I don't have the skills to fight bandits. It's just some well-known hooligans around Wuliqiao. He just wants to kidnap me for some money." You Jin explained: "Tie them up first and send them to the government early tomorrow morning! It's just that I have to trouble Gentleman Xiao to come forward on my behalf."

Since he saved her, Xiao Lin Yu didn't mind sending the buddha to the west and nodded, "No problem. I happened to be acquainted with Luohe Prefecture's magistrate. I think he will be happy to help me with this. "

Xiao Lin Yu made it sound like it wasn't a big deal. However, in the ears of old Third Chen and the others, it exploded like thunder on the ground! The man who saved Su Family's little b*tch knew the official! It seems this time luck wasn't on their side! The guards stuffed the despondent old Third Chen and other five people into Su Family's mule cart. You Jin got into Auntie He's carriage which was following Xiao Lin Yu's carriage. Group of twenty-thirty people headed back towards Wuliqiao.

On the mule cart, tightly bound He Liu had a crying face. He asked old Third Chen with a trembling voice: "Third Elder Brother, do we have any chance of escaping this time?"

It wasn't like they haven't done anything terrible before. However, when had they ever hit such a hard iron board? From what the rich man in the green gown conveyed, it seems they were goners?

The ashen-faced old Third Chen with an unfixed dislocated left arm slumped in the mule cart and said nothing. This time they were going to be doomed!

Back to Mrs. Su and the others who were waiting at home for a long time but didn't see You Jin and Song Yang. They were extremely anxious. When they were about to send someone out to look for them, the woman who was guarding the door came in three steps at a time: "Madam! Madam! Eldest Miss is back!"

When she heard that You Jin had returned, Mrs. Su breathed a sigh of relief: "What's the matter with this child? Why did she come back so late?"

Though she verbally blamed her , she still walked forward.

Seeing her daughter take Song Yang out and now bringing back a few dozens of people, Mrs. Su was a little frightened: "This is?"

With Auntie He's support, You Jin got off the carriage. When she saw Mrs. Su coming out, she spoke, "Mother, this is not a place to talk. Let's go in first and then talk about it!"

Saying that, she quickly got people to open the gate to let Xiao Family's carriage in.

The light at the gate was dim earlier, so Mrs. Su didn't see the wound on You Jin's face. When they returned to the main room, she discovered her daughter was injured and nervously asked, "What's wrong with you? Didn't you go to Houjiawan to check the saplings? Why did you get hit on the face?"

You Jin was exhausted. Her head was still groggy. Seeing Mrs. Su's anxiousness, he hurriedly comforted her: "Mother, I'm fine. Thanks to these two Gentleman Xiao who saved me. I'll go take a bath and change clothes first. Mother, please get someone to clean up the guest room and ask the kitchen to serve some food."

"Oh! Alright, you go!" Mrs. Su sent You Jin away with great concern. Then she paid her attention to Xiao Lin Yu: "Thank you, Gentleman Xiao, for saving You Jin."

How could Xiao Lin Yu accept a bow from elders? He quickly dodged away and signaled Auntie He to go and help her up: "I have had business dealings with Ms. Su. Since she is in trouble, I just lend a hand. I really dare not accept such a great bow from Elders."

Although he put it like that, Mrs. Su was very grateful. She hurriedly invited the two to sit down in the main hall and then instructed people to serve tea and snacks: "There is nothing good at home. The food will take for a while. Gentlemans, have some snacks first!"

In the front yard, Su Family entertained Xiao brothers. In the back yard, Su sisters heard their eldest sister was injured and all ran to the main room of the second yard to see You Jin. Yu Lan had carefully smeared medicine for reducing swelling and blood stasis on You Jin, who came out of the bath: "Fortunately, it's only surface wounds. Aftering smearing some medicine, it will clear up in a few days."

Seeing the large bruise on the waist under the clothes of You Jin and the severe redness and swelling on the face, she felt shocked but also very heartbroken.

"Eldest Sister, are you alright? Does it still hurt?" Seeing the injuries her body, You Zhu and the sisters couldn't help but frown. All of them felt distressed: "Who did it?"

After Yu Lan finished applying the medicine, You Jin drank another cup of hot tea. The fatigue and splitting headaches had greatly reduced. She comforted her younger sisters with a few words: "It's fine. Fortunately, I encountered Gentleman Xiao and got saved. The wicked people are already caught. They are now locked in the firewood shed."

As soon as she heard that the villain was locked at home at this moment, You Zhu quietly grasped You Yin's hand. The two sisters reached a tacit understanding in an instant and found an excuse to go to the front yard. Gritting her teeth as she walked forward, You Zhu viciously declared, "Second Elder Sister, we must teach those villains a lesson! Take revenge for Eldest Sister!"

In fact, You Yin's temperament was much calmer than that of You Zhu. But seeing how seriously her eldest sister was injured, she followed You Zhu's steps without hesitation.

Han Li was standing guard at the door of the firewood room. When he saw You Yin sisters coming, he silently took a step back. Seeing how Han Li knew how to act, You Zhu smiled. She tested out the weight of the stick in her hand a few times. Then she pushed open the door of the firewood shed to enter.

At the other end, in the main room. Mrs. Su was talking with Xiao Family brothers, when she suddenly heard men's screams from outside. She hurriedly asked Auntie Song, "What happened? Go and have a look!" Something better not happen!

Receiving the order, Auntie Song hurried out to have a look. She came back shortly later. With guests' presence, she leaned over to Mrs. Su's ear with some hesitation and whispered: "It's Second Miss and Third Miss. they are in the firewood shed, venting anger on Eldest Miss's behalf!"

After hearing this, Mrs. Su couldn't help frowning: "These two children, why are they acting like this? Go and call them out. Don't let them mess around."

Mrs. Su understood that the two daughters were venting anger for Eldest Daughter, but the severity of Eldest Daughter's injuries had her heart on edge. What to do if something happens to these two children.

Not long after Mrs. Su's words were spoken, a refreshed You Jin came to the front yard's main hall with two sweaty younger sisters in tow: "Thank you, Gentleman Xiao, for today."

Mrs. Su secretly glared at the two daughters hiding behind You Jin. You Zhu soundlessly stuck out her tongue, not feeling that she was wrong.

Seeing that Su Family's mother and daughters were all 70% similar, Xiao Lin Yu couldn't help but smiled back: "Miss Su is being polite. It's just a matter of lifting a hand. I must thank Miss Su for letting us stay overnight."

Seeing Eldest Brother and Su Family's little lass making polite exchanges, Xiao Lin Feng quietly rolled his eyes. This Su Family's lass really had no conscience. It was him who brought people to rescue her. Why didn't she come to him and give a few words of thanks?

There were many people in Su Family now. Still within a half an hour, four dishes and one soup were prepared and put on the table. As for Xiao Family's guards, their meals were also prepared. But they could only make do with where Su Family's servants normally ate.

Xiao Lin Yu brothers were both people who were used to delicacies from mountains and seas. Although Su Family had already used their own best raw materials to prepare this table of meals, it wasn't much in Xiao Family brothers' eyes. You Jin knew this very well, so she picked up a cup of tea: "You Jin replaced wine with tea and once again thank you Gentleman Xiao for saving my life. Family conditions don't allow it, so I can only entertain you two nobles with simple tea and light meals. I am really sorry."

After taking a sip of tea, Xiao Lin Yu smilingly raised his chopsticks and clipped up some fried vegetables to taste them. The taste was quite delicious. He remarked: "It's no problem. Farmer's is wildly interesting. It's a rare experience." Su Family's servant woman was taught by Mrs. Su. On top of that, her culinary skills was considered passable. Although the raw materials were common in the countryside, the taste was no worse than that of ordinary restaurants.

Xiao Lin Feng wasn't as picky as his eldest brother. He tasted two mouthfuls of each dish and nodded in satisfaction. He didn't eat well at noon today, so he was starving now! He ate like a storm until his belly was full. However, his eating appearance had no fault.

After the meal, the servant woman in the kitchen brought up the sour plum soup that had been hanging over the water for a long time. You Jin jollily spoke: "Now we don't sell sour plum soup. Only cook some to drink in summer. It can also relieve tiredness after a meal."

Xiao Lin Yu accepted the sour plum soup and sipped it twice. Then he nodded slightly: "Sure enough, your sour plum soup is better."

After having their fill, Uncle Song arranged everyone's accommodation. He arranged Xiao Family brothers to stay in Su Family's guest room. Because there were too many guards, they could only make do for one night.

There were constant cicadas and frogs cries outside the house. Still, Xiao Lin Yu had a rare good sleep. When he opened his eyes again, dawn had arrived for a long time. Hearing little girls' laughter from outside, the slender figure put on his outer clothes. He opened the window facing the main courtyard and saw two little girls around their teens with three children ranging from four to seven years old playing in the garden. It was unknown what they were playing, but the laughter never stopped.

Xiao Family's branches were sparse. In Xiao Lin Yu's generation, there were only two brothers. The age gap between him and Lin Feng was more than six years. His parents had raised him as the next generation head of Xiao Family since childhood. Xiao Lin Yu had never enjoyed this kind of happy time between siblings. The childhood in his memory was full of all kinds of study. This kind of carefree playful smiling face was really enviable.

Seeing the distinguished guest who stayed overnight coming out, You Bao bowed to him with some embarrassment: "Did we disturb Gentleman Xiao's rest?"

Xiao Lin Yu picked up little Seventh who was never afraid of strangers and stretched out her arms for a hug from him. He replied with mirth: "It's fine to call me Eldest Brother Xiao. You didn't disturb me. You got up so early. Don't you want to rest more?"

Being embraced by this good-looking big brother, little Seventh lovingly rubbed him a few times before responding in a childlike voice: "Eldest Sister said, An hour in the morning is worth two in the evening. We all came back from practicing!"

"You guys do practices? That's amazing!" Xiao Lin Yu grinned. His eyes scanned around the front yard of Su's house. It was too dark last night, so he didn't notice it. Now it seemed that this was indeed a well-organized one small farmyard.

After taking the younger sisters back from a morning jog, You Jin had gone back to the backyard to bathe and change clothes. Once she came out, she found little Seventh on Xiao Lin Yu and hurriedly said, "Little Seventh, don't disturb the guests."

Since Eldest Sister spoke, she wriggled to get down despite being reluctant to part with this good-looking big brother. Seeing that she wanted to go down, Xiao Lin Yu carefully put her back where she was for fear that she'll fall.
