Chapter 281 It's Best to Go Together
"Of course I know what I'm doing."
He not only knew, but he was also very clear-headed; otherwise, he wouldn't have been pulled away so easily.
"If you knew that, why did you still take action?"
They lived in Gujia Village. Although they were all portrayed as bullies, they had never laid a hand on anyone, or to be precise, they had never personally laid a hand on anyone.
Because it's not allowed, their parents don't allow it, there are many things the Lin family can't do, and there are also many things they can do.
But that depends on what you really want to do!
For example, even if you are very angry, you can't hit someone.
"My second brother hit me, so what? I don't care anymore. They went too far, so what if I hit them?"
“I know you’re very amazing right now, but there’s nothing we can do. They’re already tied up. If you hit them again, then you’re in the wrong. But don’t worry, if their families don’t come to pick them up, we’ll just dump them on the mountain.”
Being thrown up the mountain was already a severe punishment, but Lin Bao was not satisfied at all, because there were no animals on the mountain now, so even if he was thrown up there, there would be no danger to his life, and he might even be able to find food on the mountain.
"What's the point of throwing them up the mountain? There's nothing up there. This is the safest place. Even if we throw them up there, there won't be any danger."
"So what do you think you should do now? How should you deal with them?"
Upon hearing this, Lin Bao looked at the two men and gave them a sinister smile. Then he said, "Leave them to Big Gray and let Big Gray treat them well."
Upon hearing this, the two men's legs went weak with fear, because they both knew exactly what the "big gray" in Lin Bao's mouth was. But what could they do? They had no room to speak now.
Lin Hu agreed to his brother's request, then looked at the two people on the ground: "You have a little time left. You'd better ask Buddha to bless your family to come before dark, otherwise you will really be handed over to Big Gray."
After he finished speaking, he was about to leave with his younger brother when one of them stopped him: "Why do we have to come with our family? Can't we go back by ourselves?"
"You want to go back by yourself? Where are you going? You're not even paying the ransom, and you think you can just walk away alone? There's no such thing as a free lunch."
Upon hearing the word "ransom," both of them widened their eyes and said in unison, "We don't have any money at home."
"What business is it of mine whether your family has money or not? You scared my little black dog and little red dog. Shouldn't you take responsibility?"
"Lin Bao, you're nothing but a bandit! We're completely out of food now, and you're asking us for money again? Are you trying to drive them to their deaths?"
Lin Bao, who was about to leave, stopped upon hearing this and looked at the people behind him: "Did I ask you to come and touch my horse?"
Did I knock you all out?
"You've all brought this upon yourselves, so who else can you blame now?"
Lin Cai learned about this, but she didn't take it to heart because she had more important things to do.
She observed the weather these past few days and noticed that although the snowflakes were gradually decreasing and the snowfall was becoming shorter.
But this is not a good sign, because it's just after the New Year, a time when it should be cold. It's strange that it's suddenly not cold now.
She told the village chief about it, and the village chief was shocked when he heard it: "Lin girl, is what you said true? Can such a thing really happen?"
"I don't know, because I'm not sure either. I'm just telling you based on what I've observed, but I'm not sure about the specifics, so you'll have to make the decision."
Lin Cai didn't say whether it was true or false, only telling the village chief that it might happen. After hearing this, the village chief frowned.
"That's just your assumption. If it doesn't happen, then everyone will be..."
"Father, whether it's true or false, just pass the word down. Let them do what they want. If they don't want to leave, we won't force them. They can leave alone, or they can come with us..."
Gu Wen came out of the house and expressed his thoughts. Lin Cai had met this person before, but this was the first time she had seen him so closely.
"If Miss Lin comes to tell you, it means she will leave this place, right?"
Lin Cai nodded upon hearing this: "I will indeed leave here, and I will take the Gu family members with me. As for the others, they are none of my concern."
She was referring to the Gu family. She said she would take the Gu family members with her, but wouldn't interfere with the old Gu family. Gu Wen understood what she meant and nodded.
"I understand, but I think it would be better if we left together."
Lin Cai didn't say anything. She knew it would be better to leave together, but she didn't want to have anything to do with anyone in Gujia Village.
Once you're involved, you won't be able to shake it off, and she doesn't like that kind of clingy relationship.
Gu Wen looked at Lin Cai, not caring that she didn't hear a reply, and even told her, "If we leave together, I won't let anyone disturb Miss Lin. Would you consider that?"
This was another instance of kindness being shown to her, and Lin Cai didn't want to make things too awkward for them, so she nodded and said, "Okay, I'll think about it carefully."
After Lin Cai left, the village chief looked at his son and asked, "Wen-ge'er, are we really leaving?"
"It's not that we really want to leave, but that we have no choice but to leave, because staying means certain death."
The county magistrate has fled, and there's nothing left in the entire county town. It's probably completely empty by now.
Since it's just an empty shell, what's the point of staying here and waiting for them to attack?
My son is educated, so he's bound to think further ahead than this country bumpkin. Since he says he wants to leave, then let him go!
Lin Cai went back and discussed it with the Gu family. Xiao Chunhua didn't understand, but she knew they were leaving, so she looked at Lin Cai.
"Mother, don't we want our home here anymore?"
She actually quite likes this place; after all, she was born and raised here, so naturally she doesn't want to leave.
When Lin Cai heard Xiao Chunhua's question, she hugged her and said softly, "It's not that I don't want to go, it's just that I'm moving away temporarily. I'll come back if I have the chance in the future."
Hearing that she would be coming back, Xiaochunhua's initial reluctance disappeared.
