Chapter 248: Another preference for boys over girls
Because the traitor in Medicine Valley revealed the secret of the Nalan family, Lu Cheng'an took his confidants to investigate. The reason why Wang Lin was valued by him was because of his supernatural power.
The elites from Dali Temple should have been a sure thing, but their whereabouts were leaked because of the great strength that Wang Lin showed unintentionally.
When they arrived at the old nest, it was already deserted and an ambush had been set.
Wang Cheng felt distressed when he saw his brother's fatal wounds. It seemed that he had narrowly escaped death on this trip and it was a blessing that he could come back alive.
Wang Lin took the medicine handed over by his niece, gave her a simple smile, and then applied it on himself silently.
"Brother, come here." Wang Cheng snatched the medicine bottle and complained angrily, "You're still going forward when it's so dangerous. You really don't take your life seriously. If anything happens, what will happen to my parents?"
“If I don’t use my full strength, I’m afraid no one will come back alive.” Wang Lin replied hesitantly.
"What does other people's lives have to do with you?" Wang Cheng said angrily.
After hearing this, Wang Lin lowered his head uncomfortably again.
Little Yining carefully touched the wound on Wang Lin's waist. Although it had already formed a scar, it was still wider than her little finger. She said distressedly, "Second uncle, does it still hurt? What on earth did those bad guys do to put you to death?"
Wang Lin opened his mouth. After all, he was a young man who had been baptized. He said cautiously, "Qing Jie'er can't listen to this. Just know that some people in the Nalan family are not good people."
The Nalan family has always been the Nalan family...
Xiao Yining completely hated the Nalan family.
Wang Lin looked at his elder brother again and said, "Brother, didn't my sister return a piece of top-quality ginseng to our parents? Lord Lu saved me from danger before, so I wanted to ask my parents to borrow it first and send it to Lord Lu. When I get my salary, I will buy another piece and return it to my parents."
Then he muttered in a low voice, "If Dad is reluctant to give it to me, I will go outside Yanjing and catch a big insect and bring it back to make wine for Lord Lu."
Wang Cheng paused while applying the medicine, and the next moment he slapped his brother on the head. He said viciously, "If you dare to go, I will ask Dad to break your hand and you will never be able to hunt again in your life."
Then he said unhappily, "I'll give you money, you can go to the pharmacy and buy it yourself. Good ginseng is hard to find, and you can't touch the one your parents have."
Wang Lin and Xiao Yining looked up almost at the same time, both with shock on their faces.
Wang Lin: Where did you get the money?
Xiao Yining: Oh my god, the miser has changed his character.
Because of Wang Lin, Xiao Yining once again had the opportunity to see the gold bars under the bed. They were still as dazzling and shocking as ever.
She couldn't help but stretch out her hand again, wanting to get some of the golden energy.
Wang Cheng ruthlessly moved her hand away, then took out five gold bars and stuffed them into his brother's hand with great heartache. "We are not a wealthy family, so there is no need to pretend to be rich. These gold bars are enough for you to buy a good ginseng."
Wang Lin was dumbfounded. He held the gold bar in his hand stupidly, and couldn't find his own voice for a long time.
"Uncle..." Seeing Wang Cheng was about to close the bed again, little Yining called out hesitantly.
Wang Cheng froze, and in his heart he immediately cursed Lin Yuzan for raising his niece so shallowly. He reluctantly took out his purse, took out a small piece of silver and put it in Xiao Yining's hand, and coaxed her softly, "Qingjie, be good. Your uncle will carve a baby for you tomorrow."
Xiao Yining stared at the silver in his hand, countless MMPs flashed through his mind, but a smile appeared on his face and he said okay.
Stingy old man, huh.
13 was equally disappointed. She had been waiting for countless days for the gold bar to reappear.
Xiao Yining, 13: It’s so sad when I can’t touch the gold bars…
They both looked at the gold bars in Wang Lin’s hand with envy: So many!
Wang Cheng remade the bed and said, "Lin Zi, go find Lord Lu tomorrow. He should be in the palace to see the emperor today."
Wang Lin finally came to his senses. He was surprised and asked, "How did you know that Lord Lu was going to see the emperor? He even told me secretly today."
Wang Cheng: ..., I thought my brother had made some progress, but I didn’t expect it was only a little bit.
"Second uncle, can you take me with you when you meet Lord Lu tomorrow? I want to see Sister Lu. I miss her." At this time, little Yining spoke. Although her father would remind Lord Lu, he would be going to North City soon. He would definitely have to prepare things to save his life in the next few days, so he would not have time.
Xiao Yining: She did it for real work, not to avoid endorsement.
Wang Lin nodded in agreement. He glanced at his brother's bed again, with many bad thoughts in his mind but he didn't dare to ask.
"Qingjie, wait for your parents to come back, ask them to come over for dinner, and your uncle will cook." Wang Cheng helped his brother apply the medicine, gave his niece some instructions, and then walked out.
Wang Lin couldn't hold back his words. Seeing his brother leave, he quickly pulled Xiao Yining aside and asked, "Qing Jie, do you know where the gold bars under your uncle's bed came from?"
"I know. Second uncle, tell me what the Nalan family did first, and then I will tell you." Little Yining stated the conditions.
“But, but, this is a bad thing, and Second Uncle can’t tell him!” Wang Lin scratched his head in distress.
Xiao Yining nodded in understanding, and began to scratch her head in distress, "Then, then, then Sister Qing can't talk about it either!"
Wang Lin:......
"Uncle, have a good rest. Sister Qing will come to see you later." Xiao Yining ran away without any reluctance.
……
Wang Gungun came back from setting up the stall outside and hurried to the side door with a brush. He didn't know what was wrong with Lin Yuzan. He posted papers every day saying that he and the dog were not allowed to enter, scratching one and posting another.
He sounded like he really wanted to go there.
He jumped up, crossed out the word "dog" again, snorted, and was about to turn and leave.
At this time, little Yining appeared near the side door holding her wet nurse.
Wang Gungun was so angry that he stopped her immediately. He pointed at the torn paper on the door and said, "Is your father really that serious? I just said that Lin Yinhu was competing with him for favor, and he kept posting this torn paper on the door every day."
Little Yining looked at him in confusion, and also came to the side door, looked up, and almost couldn't hold back her smile. She said to Wang Gungun in a serious tone, "My father may think you can bite people."
Wang Gungun: ...
"We are the only ones here now, so stop pretending to be so young in front of me."
"My father is going to travel soon and won't be around for a few days." Xiao Yining said this to comfort him casually and was about to turn around and leave.
Traveling?
Wang Gungun was stunned, and began to calculate as usual, then curled his lips and said, "Then your father shouldn't stick to you, as if I'm going to play with you."
Then, like a little adult, he told Xiao Yining, "Your father...your father won't be back for half a year this time, so you should spend the next few days with him!"
This time it was Xiao Yining's turn to get upset. "Half a year? My dad is going to be away for half a year, so he won't take the exam!"
She thought her father went to the north city, so she went to her hometown to take the exam, but she didn't expect to be away for half a year.
Wouldn't that mean she would have to wait another three years? And it would be exactly the same as in the book. Her father might even be seduced away by that crazy heroine...
Xiao Yining: She wants to go crazy right here.
She wilted.
Wang Gungun patted her shoulder and comforted her, "Calm down. Although your father's luck is a little bad, he can still become an official. He is born to be a hard worker."
Xiao Yining looked at him sideways and said, “You are destined to be beaten.”
"Are you scolding me?" Wang Gungun felt her gaze and immediately asked sensitively.
"I didn't say anything." Xiao Yining pushed him away and came to Wang's house, ready to find Wang Lin to act cute again.
"Do you think I'm stupid? Where are you going? Just run away when I find out." Wang Gungun chased after him angrily.
"I'm looking for my second uncle."
"Wang Lin is back. It seems that the leader of the human traffickers has been brought to justice." Wang Gungun excitedly passed Xiao Yining and ran very fast.
The leader of the human traffickers?
Xiao Yining paused.
