This life was different from her previous life. She was reborn to take back what she had lost, not to be bullied.
After yesterday's incident, in order not to affect her daughter's reputation, her stepmother, Madam Xie, would definitely think of a way to spend money to suppress the news of her falling off the cliff.
There was still a long way to go.
“……”
The group of people walked for seven days by water and five days by the official road. At sunset, they arrived at the station in the suburbs of the capital.
The courier station was about ten miles away from the capital. Madam Xie had already written a letter and arranged for servants and carriages to welcome them. Everyone was eager to return. In addition to the fact that the journey was not far, they decided to set off overnight and strive to reach the Lin Manor before midnight. First Madam Xie and Lin Qingxue sat in one carriage, while Lin Qinghan sat in the other, accompanied by her servant Ah Zhu. Madam Xie thought that since Young Lady Qinghan had just entered the capital, she should be treated as a guest of honor. She insisted that Qinghan's carriage walk in front of her own carriage, and the group of people set off again.
The capital was surrounded by mountains and beautiful scenery, but there were also sparsely populated places in the suburbs. When the team reached a mountain road, Lin Qinghan lifted the curtain and looked out. He saw that the place was overgrown with vegetation and strange rocks. The atmosphere was a little gloomy. There was only the light of the torches of the followers and the moonlight above their heads. The moonlight made the mountain road particularly desolate. Lin Qinghan didn't know why she had a bad feeling.
Suddenly, the sound of horse hooves came from the front. A group of horses with weapons in their hands blocked the path of the Lin family's team. Then, the leader of the group shouted," I planted this tree and opened this road. If you want to pass through, leave behind the money to buy the road!”
They had encountered Mountain Bandits!
Lin Qinghan calmed down and opened the curtain a little. There were about 40 to 50 people in this group, and there were only a dozen people arranged by Madam Xie to escort them. Strange, why would there be bandits under Tian Zi's feet?
"We brothers have a way of stealing. We will only rob your first car. Be it money, jewelry, or women, we will leave everything behind!”
"Brothers, let's attack together!"
As soon as he finished speaking, the Mountain Bandits charged towards Lin Qinghan's carriage. Although the guards had martial arts, there were too many Mountain Bandits. How could they be a match for so many people? They were defeated in a few moves. The Mountain Bandits roared and pulled Lin Qinghan's carriage rope, heading into the depths of the forest.
"Someone come! Hurry up and save him! Qinghan was kidnapped by the Mountain Bandits, is there anyone there?”Madam Xie cried out in fear and anxiety,
The darkness of the night concealed the smile on her face.
"Hahaha, the person who paid said that the woman in the car could be dealt with as long as she disappeared without a trace! I'll bring my brothers back first and have a good time!”
"Wuwuwu... Miss, did you hear what they said just now…Sob, sob, sob…What should we do…" After Ah Zhu finished speaking, she started crying.
The horse carriage bumped along the mountain road. The bandits outside the carriage were shouting rudely. A'Zhu was crying until she couldn't breathe, but Qinghan was very calm as he recalled everything that had just happened. The Xie family insisted that her carriage go first, and the bandits only robbed the first carriage. The heart of the sugar daddy Lin Qinghan, who was just mentioned by the bandits, sank, and a cold smile appeared on his face. That's right, what was there to be sad about? Didn't he already see the true colors of this mother and daughter?
"Don't be afraid. We will definitely be saved.”The memories of her previous life told her that she would not die here. In her previous life, they were saved by a young master who went out hunting. She believed that it would be the same in this life.
The carriage was getting faster and faster. The cheers of the bandits outside were like the shouts of evil ghosts. A'zhu hugged her head and trembled.
Suddenly, there was the sound of swords clashing outside the window, followed by the sound of torches rolling and people wailing as they fell to the ground.
After a while, the surroundings quieted down.
Lin Qinghan and Ah Zhu pulled open the curtains and walked into the night.
The bandits who had just shouted for them to disappear were now lying on the ground in a mess. Some were dead, some were injured, and some were fleeing. In front of them, a man was holding a short sword that was still dripping blood. The few followers behind him were also holding bows.
The man was about 16 or 17 years old. He was wearing the green uniform worn by the noble hunting team. He was tall and handsome. Under his two dashing eyebrows, a pair of beautiful phoenix eyes seemed to be shining. His facial features were sharp and angular. Although he was not old, he had an iron-blooded temperament. He stood out among the crowd.
Ah Zhu had followed Lin Qinghan since she was young and had lived a comfortable life. She had just recovered from the shock of her young lady falling off the cliff, so how could she withstand the shock of being kidnapped by the mountain bandits and the surprise of being saved? She was in a daze and could not say a word.
Lin Qinghan comforted A'Zhu and carefully inspected the bandits on the ground. Then, she got up and walked towards the man in green, solemnly bowing,"Thank you for saving my life, Young Master."
The green-robed man looked at Lin Qinghan's face that didn't look frightened and frowned slightly,"Hmph, pretending to be calm is not cute at all.”
From the way the master and servant were dressed, it was obvious that they were the young ladies and maids of a rich family. Such a pampered woman would have been scared out of her wits when she encountered such a thing. After being rescued, her knees would either go weak and she would kneel on the ground, or she would hug the maid and cry loudly. However, the woman in front of her did not seem to be scared at all. Not only did she not lose her composure, but she also acted as if she had not been kidnapped. Did the nanny teach her that women should always be dignified and prudent? This kind of woman was really boring.
Hearing the man's reply, Lin Qinghan's expression remained the same. She didn't feel embarrassed or angry at the man's ridicule.
She thanked the man and his group again, turned around, and left.
"Tsk, how disappointing. If I had known that the woman in the car was so boring, I wouldn't have bothered to save her.”
She raised her head and saw Lin Qinghan pulling the still frightened A'Zhu away.
The man noticed at a glance that the woman's steps were steady and her breathing was not chaotic at all. She was completely different from the girl beside her who was so scared that her legs went weak and she staggered as she walked.
From the looks of it, her calmness earlier was not intentional. Was this woman a little too bold?
A hint of curiosity flashed in his phoenix eyes. This woman was really interesting. The capital was indeed very fun.
The man turned to his attendant and said,""Investigate the background of the woman just now.”
At the place where the carriage was robbed, Madam Xie was kneeling on the ground, crying with Lin Qingxue.
"My son! You just arrived in the capital and were kidnapped by bandits before you even entered the manor. My son, why is your life so bitter?"
When Mrs. Xie felt that she had cried enough, she looked up and saw Lin Qinghan. She was neatly dressed and had a calm expression. She was holding the hem of her dress with one hand and supporting the staggering Ah Zhu with the other.
"Ah! It's a zombie!" Madam Xie and Lin Qingxue shouted.
The followers who had been knocked unconscious by the bandits had just woken up. They were so frightened by Madam Xie's words that they almost fainted again.
Madam Xie stood up and pulled Lin Qingxue to run.
"First Madam, what are you talking about?"
"You, you…" Madam Xie and Lin Qingxue felt their legs go soft and couldn't move.
"Ah Zhu and I were kidnapped by the mountain bandits and narrowly escaped death. Fortunately, we were rescued by a group of kind-hearted people who knew martial arts.”
"Ah, I see. That's great, that's great. Qinghan, you don't know how anxious your sister and I are. If something happens to you, how am I going to explain it to the old master?"
"That's right, little sister. It's really too dangerous this time. What would I do without you?"
Madam Xie and Lin Qingxue reacted and wiped their tears with a handkerchief. Then, they went to arrange for their followers to continue.
How could this girl be so lucky? It was a pity that he couldn't get rid of her with the help of those murderers! Hmph, but there will be plenty of opportunities to get rid of this slut in the future. You have to know that the Lin Manor is not the same as it was ten years ago. There will be plenty of opportunities to do so. Not only her, but also her three useless brothers. The Lin family's assets only belong to the children of the Xie family's women, and the hereditary title of the Lin family only belongs to the sons of the Xie family's women. You b * stards, don't even think about it!
Thinking that these b * stards would die sooner or later, the Xie mother and daughter's expressions eased a little. Thinking of the family property and title that would soon belong to them, they even felt a little happy.
