The next day.
Youzhou City.
In the General's Estate.
Old Lady Lin had not been eating well or sleeping well these past few days.
He had been thinking about Lin Qiu.
They had been gone for almost four to five days.
However, he did not return.
He couldn't help but feel very worried.
"Mother!"
"Don't worry about Eldest Brother anymore!"
"The current him is already different from before!”
"Moreover, didn't Uncle Qin say that he was going to look for food, not to fight? He might be back in two days!”Lin Xi 'er comforted him.
"Sigh!"
"How could I not understand this principle?”
"However, the northern border is dangerous. There are barbarians everywhere!”
" If he encounters an ambush from the barbarians on the way…"
The old lady's expression did not improve at all.
In reality.
How could Lin Xi 'er not miss him?
However, in front of her mother, she hid these thoughts deeply.
Just as he heard this.
A worried expression could not help but appear in his heart.
"Sister-in-law!"
"If it really doesn't work, I'll personally bring people out of the city to look for it!”
"Sigh, this kid is really outrageous!”
"Now that the outside world is in chaos, who knows what big things those barbarians are brewing!”
"He just doesn't listen to advice..."
At this moment, Qin Baichuan, who was sitting next to him, frowned and spoke.
Actually, from the very beginning.
He didn't agree to let Lin Qiu go out to find food.
It was too dangerous.
Moreover, he had just fought a great battle with the barbarians not long ago.
With Jie Li's vengeful personality, he definitely wouldn't let this go.
They might be preparing to dispatch a large army to attack Youzhou City.
There were many bandits in the northern borders.
It really made people feel uneasy when he went out like this.
If Qin Baichuan didn't have a heavy responsibility to defend Youzhou City, he would have been killed.
At this moment, he had probably brought his men to find Lin Qiu personally.
No matter what, the Lin family only had one bloodline.
Lin Hengzhi had already died in the battle. He absolutely could not let anything happen to Lin Qiu.
Otherwise, he would not be able to answer to his big brother after he died.
"No!" The old lady shook her head.
"Old Qin, as the garrison general of Youzhou City, you should take care of all the affairs, big or small!”
"I'm a woman. I don't know these things!”
"Xi 'er is also a woman. It's not convenient for her to show her face in public!”
"Although Qiu 'er is the real general in name, he's still young and needs your help!”
"If something happens to both of you…how will we, an orphan and a widow, survive in the future?”
"Sister-in-law…"
"Mother!"
Qin Baichuan and Lin Xi 'er.
They all looked at the old lady worriedly.
Just as they were talking.
Suddenly, a person rushed in.
"Old Madam!"
"General Qin, Young Miss!"
"They're back, they're back!"
"What is it? Who's back?"
Qin Baichuan was stunned.
Matriarch Lin hurriedly looked over.
The servant's face was filled with joy, and his words were a little clumsy!
"It's, it's Young Master. Young Master and the others are back!”
"What?"
Instantly.
Qin Baichuan stood up immediately.
Matriarch Lin's eyes reddened and tears almost fell.
They had been waiting here for several days, and Lin Qiu had finally returned.
"Sister-in-law, wait in the residence. I'll go and see what's going on!”
After he finished speaking.
Without waiting for the old lady's reply, Qin Baichuan turned around and strode out.
At the city gate.
At this moment, the city gates were already wide open.
He saw Lin Wu leading his men to receive them.
Qin Baichuan rode his horse and came forward with a few personal guards.
"Little bastards, where have you been these past few days? Where was Lin Qiu? Where is he?"
He saw Lin Wu.
Qin Baichuan could not help but feel a little relieved.
However, when he looked around, Lin Qiu was nowhere to be seen.
His brows couldn't help but furrow again.
"Hehe, General Qin, didn't we say it before we left? Go borrow food!"
"Now that we have not let down our expectations, the food has been borrowed back!”
"Young Master is currently holding the fort behind the grain carts and is about to enter the city!”Lin Wu smiled.
"Hmm?"
Qin Baichuan's expression froze.
Looking out of the city, there was indeed a group of grain carts in the distance.
They were heading toward them in a mighty manner.
Not long after.
Soon, these grain carts arrived outside Youzhou City.
One after another, as if there was no end to it.
Qin Baichuan's expression was slightly solemn.
At this moment.
Lin Qiu rode his horse closer.
"Hehe!"
"Uncle Qin, how is it? I didn't disappoint you, right? I've borrowed the food for you!"
"Even if more commoners come to Youzhou City, we don't need to worry about running out of grains!”
As soon as he finished speaking.
Old Qin glanced at the grain carts.
He took out his saber.
Thrust!
He opened one of the bags.
They saw that it was filled with grain.
His expression changed drastically.
Now.
Almost 20,000 commoners had gone to Youzhou City for protection.
Including the original number of people.
In this small Youzhou City.
There were almost 100,000 people.
So many people.
Regardless of how they were arranged.
Just filling his stomach was a huge problem.
When he saw the food.
Old Qin's expression did not change much.
After a long time.
He turned to look at Lin Qiu.
"You brat, you've been gone for such a long time!”
"How much food did you find?"
"Don't you know that your mother, your sister, and us are all worried about you?”
"You're the only descendant of the Lin family!”
"If anything were to happen to you, how would I have the face to see my big brother in the future?”
Qin Baichuan was not secretly happy that he had found the provisions.
It was because Lin Qiu did not care about his own safety.
They started to criticize him here.
Lin Qiu nodded with a smile and said,""Uncle Qin, I know what to do!”
"Additionally, we're the garrison generals of Youzhou City!”
"Taking care of your own safety is one thing!”
"Could it be that we're going to ignore these commoners just because of danger?”
"If my father was watching from the heavens, he wouldn't want to see such a thing happen!”
"You…"
"Hmph, you're being unreasonable!"
Old Qin widened his eyes.
In the end, he couldn't say anything.
However, he was too worried.
Otherwise, even if Lin Qiu didn't take the risk to go out and find food.
He probably wouldn't just stand by and watch so many refugees starve.
He turned his gaze to the grain carts.
"How much food did you find this time? Do you have 100,000 dan?"
"Hehehe, General Qin, only a hundred thousand dan? You underestimate our young master!"
"Could it be that you found 200,000 dan? 300,000 dan?"
In the end.
Even Lin Qiu and Lin Wu.
He was still shaking his head.
Qin Baichuan was indeed a little shocked.
"Uncle Qin!"
"Take another guess…"
