C9 Bazaar Meeting

Lin Jinyan walked to Mu Yun's side and spoke indifferently.

Mu Yun raised her head and looked at Lin Jinyan's handsome face, her lips moving, "I don't want to trouble you."

"You've always regarded me as an outsider, so that's why you think it's troublesome."

Lin Jinyan's face darkened. Mu Yun stood up and looked at him, "I …"

"What do you want to do if the matter of the indenture contract is resolved?"

Mu Yun didn't say it, but she also didn't think it through.

"Do we still have to leave?"

"We aren't familiar with each other yet. If possible, I hope that we can get along a bit. If it's appropriate, then we can continue to stay together. If it's inappropriate, then we can separate."

At the end, Mu Yun's voice became smaller and smaller.

"Alright."

Lin Jinyan spoke so straightforwardly.

"Go to sleep."

After a night of silence, the two of them fell asleep.

Due to the incident at night, Mu Yun woke up a little late the next morning. When she went to eat, Mu Yun saw that her family was waiting for her.

Although there was no delicious food on the table, it was a sign of respect. She felt that she should treasure it.

"I'm going into the mountains. I might not be back in the next two days, so you don't have to worry about me."

While they were eating, Lin Jinyan suddenly said.

"Come into the mountain, why didn't you say so earlier? Mom would also prepare some dry rations for you."

There were many times a year when Lin Jinyan entered the mountain. It was very dangerous deep in the mountain, but when she went in, she would also get some valuable things: herbs, wild animals, wild fruits, and wild animals.

Mu Yun didn't say anything. She just ate a few bites and then put down her chopsticks.

"I'll go to the kitchen to see if there's anything else I can bring."

With that, Mu Yun went to the kitchen.

In her heart, she knew that no matter who it was, they would not want their loved ones to take the risk. Lin Jinyan's entrance into the mountain was probably related to her indenture contract, and right now, the only thing she could do was prepare the necessary things for Lin Jinyan.

There wasn't much food in the house, so the rice was pitifully little. Mu Yun went outside to dig up some wild vegetables, then she mixed the few white noodles with the corn noodles and added salt. Then, she made a wild vegetable cake with lard and filled Lin Jinyan with salted vegetables and water.

Lin Jinyan stood at the door, quietly looking at the busy figures inside.

"Don't worry, I'll take good care of the family."

When Lin Jinyan left, Mu Yun stood in front of him and guaranteed.

"Hmm, don't be too tired."

Mu Yun nodded. "You should also pay attention to your safety. Don't force your way in."

These two days, Lin Jinyan was not around. After Muyun finished her chores, she would take Lin Lang to dig up some wild vegetables. They only had a bit of rice left at home, so they needed to save money.

The wild vegetables were also very tasty, saving a lot of rice and grains at home.

The Cheng family sent a message to Mu Yun, asking her to go back. Mu Yun found an excuse and refused.

After the third day passed, the family started to worry about Lin Jinyan's safety. Mu Yun had also lost a bit of weight in these two days and couldn't eat anymore.

On the fourth day, it rained. Mu Yun put on a set of clothes and waited for Lin Jinyan under the big locust tree by the door. She didn't bring much food for Lin Jinyan and since he was a man, his appetite must be huge.

These two days, Mu Yun was a bit regretful. She shouldn't have let Lin Jinyan into the mountain. If something had happened to him, she would definitely feel guilty for the rest of her life.

In the drizzle, a figure gradually appeared. When Mu Yun saw this person, she quickly ran over.

It was Lin Jinyan. His clothes were drenched, and he was carrying a wooden stick on his shoulder. Both sides of him were filled with stuff.

"Why is it raining?"

Lin Jinyan's clothes had a few holes in them, so at first glance, it was obviously a modern version of a beggar's uniform.

"Waiting for you."

Mu Yun said without hesitation.

The corners of Lin Jinyan's lips curled up as she picked up her stuff and returned to the courtyard.

The rain did not stop. Mu Yun made a bowl of vegetable congee for Lin Jinyan and sat down with Lin Lang to watch.

"Ginseng is a good thing. I didn't expect you to find it."

When the Huang family saw these things, they also couldn't help but smile.

Looking at those things, Mu Yun seemed to be able to imagine the scene of Lin Jinyan sleeping out in the mountains. Thinking of all these, a faint ripple appeared in the softest part of her body.

"I'll bring Mu Yun and Lin Lang to the market tomorrow. Mother, what do you want to buy?"

Lin Jinyan finished a big bowl of porridge in one breath, put down her spoon and said to Huang Shi.

"No, you youngsters can just do whatever you want. As long as you are old enough, you can make do with what you have!"

As she spoke, Mrs Huang stroked the fur of a wild goat on the ground.

"I won't go. Bring Lin Lang along and bring her some good stuff."

Mu Yun said in embarrassment.

"Let's go together. We should buy more if it's something that needs to be bought."

Lin Jinyan looked at Mu Yun and said.

"Alright, I'm going to the market tomorrow!"

Upon hearing that Lin Jinyan had brought her to the market, Lin Lang happily circled around the floor. Mu Yun couldn't help sighing in her heart. Childhood was still the best.

The next morning, Lin Jinyan brought Mu Yun and Lin Lang to the city on the village donkey cart.

Lin Jinyan had sold his things for a lot of money.

The ginseng was sold for 30 taels of silver, the rest of the herbs for 8 taels of silver, the three rabbits for 2 taels of silver, the five pheasants for 3 taels of silver, and the goat for 10 taels of silver.

The game was sold to a restaurant. The innkeeper of the restaurant was very enthusiastic about Lin Jinyan and reckoned that Lin Jinyan had always sold him the game.

Before leaving, the shopkeeper gave Mu Yun a bag of snacks. Mu Yun looked at the storekeeper a few more times and thanked him.

"Here."

Along the way, Lin Jinyan gave a heavy purse to Mu Yun. Mu Yun looked at Lin Jinyan and said, "Aren't you afraid that you'll run away with your money?"

Lin Jinyan raised her eyebrows at Mu Yun and walked away without a word.

"Sister-in-law, I want to eat candy!"

Lin Lang pulled Mu Yun's hand and skipped over to the candy seller's stall. He accidentally bumped into a person.

"Sorry, the child didn't do it on purpose."

Mu Yun looked at the girl apologizing for Mu Yun, and when she saw that person's face, her smile became even brighter.

When the girl saw Mu Yun, her face paled. She didn't care to pick up the thing that she was holding and ran, "Ghost … "Haunted …"

The candy seller looked at the girl, then looked at Mu Yun. "Is that girl crazy?"

Mu Yun smiled and didn't answer.

The man was not mad, but frightened at the sight of her face.

That person was the Eldest Servant of the Gu household, Silvermoon. The one who had taken a fancy to Mu Yun was the one that Yingyue had told Madam Gu. Thus, the one who had caused the original owner to lose his life was the culprit, Yingyue.

After buying some candy for Lin Lang, Mu Yun and Lin Jinyan discussed buying some cloths for their family. Lin Lang's clothes had long since become small, and they were all connected in circles by the old cloths used by the Huang Family.

After buying more food and meat, Muyun and Lin Jinyan said they wanted to buy some personal items. Lin Jinyan nodded, but Muyun just took two steps and came back.

Seeing that Lin Jinyan was also looking at her, she took out a silver tael and passed the excess money to Lin Jinyan.

"What are you doing?"

Lin Jinyan's face instantly darkened. Mu Yun coughed dryly and said, "If you're not worried that I'll escape, then I'll keep the money."

Mu Yun went to the restaurant where Lin Jinyan sold wild game. The shopkeeper saw Mu Yun and was a bit surprised: "Why is this Lady Lin here? Could it be that the money from before was miscalculated?"
