Chapter 442: The General is a Thief
Translator: Lonelytree
The next day, the Butler, who was dragging his heavy and fat body, had one hand on his back and the other on his waist. He asked in confusion, “why does my whole body hurt? Did I not sleep well last night?”
Suddenly, he called out to a servant girl in pink, “come, come. Come here and lower your back.”
As he spoke, he reached out and touched the little servant girl’s hand with a very vulgar expression. Then, he naturally touched her thin and soft waist. The servant girl was frowning and showing a disdainful expression. However, when she turned around, she smiled sweetly and said in a coy voice, “Butler, there are many people here.”
The Butler, who was in pain all over, immediately stopped hurting. He immediately laughed, and his fat face became uglier. He said teasingly, “Okay, then let’s go to a place where no one is around, and you can give me a massage.”
Then, the two figures left.
Little 38 and little 42, who was on shift, happened to witness this scene. They were even more certain that the Butler was not a good person.
Therefore, they made up their minds that even if they were to be killed, they would never allow the Butler to enter the important study room.
Jiang Zhennan no longer knew what his two loyal guards were thinking. At this moment, he was riding an extremely eye-catching horse with black and white stripes, heading towards a remote town.
…
A day or two after Jiang Zhennan left, Lin Yuelan felt a little uncomfortable. She felt that there was one less person to accompany her, to talk to her, and to care for her.
For example, with a look from the masked uncle, she could immediately understand what he meant. Just like the last time when they caught Lin Laosan and his sons, he sealed the mute acupuncture points of a few people who would ruin their plans with just a look from Lin Yuelan.
However, she consoled herself that she would get used to it in two days. She needed to find things to do to fill the time.
These days, Lin Yuelan had indeed been busy with work to forget about the masked uncle.
She would first reclaim the land, then build a house, and then inherit the Lin medicine shop.
Before they left, Lin Yuelan said unwillingly, “Grandpa, you’re still in your prime. You can manage the medicine shop for a few more years. I’m not in a hurry to take over the medicine shop.”
It had only been a short time since they had taken each other as family, but Lin Deshan didn’t hesitate to transfer the medicine shop to Lin Yuelan. After that, he planned to stay in the Lin family Village to chat with doctor Zhang and the others.
However, Lin Yuelan didn’t want to take over this medicine shop so soon.
Not to mention, her reputation as the jinx made people deeply afraid of her. Even in this medicine shop, she didn’t have the time to guard it every day.
Although he could hire a shopkeeper, it was harder to hire a good one. This was because the shopkeeper had to be familiar with all kinds of medicinal herbs and also understand the effects of each medicinal herb.
A shopkeeper like this was hard to find in the entire County, let alone in Ning An town. Therefore, Lin Yuelan had to man the shop herself.
Lin Deshan stroked his beard and laughed. “Girl, you’ll have to take over the Lin medicine Hall sooner or later. It’s better to take it over early. This way, Grandpa can rest for a few more years. Besides, who said I’m in my prime? I’m obviously in my old age. Do you really have the heart to see Grandpa, an old man in his seventies and eighties, still working so laboriously?”
Lin Yuelan rolled her eyes.
He wasn’t even 50 years old. Who was he trying to fool?
No matter how unwilling Lin Yuelan was, the carriage quickly entered the town.
The townspeople all knew Lin Deshan’s carriage, so it was not surprising.
However, to their surprise, the person in the carriage was a little girl. This child was the famous Lin Yuelan, the Lin family Village’s jinx.
What was going on?
People couldn’t wait to hide from Lin Yuelan. Yet, shopkeeper Lin actually allowed this nemesis to sit in his carriage.
Some people had some doubts and immediately followed over, wanting to see if there was anything interesting to see.
It couldn’t be helped. Lin Yuelan was like a freakshow. People just wanted to see what she was doing.
Lin Yuelan touched her forehead and thought to herself, ‘This reputation is really something else.’
However, she looked calm on the surface and ignored everyone’s strange looks.
She couldn’t control what others thought or said, so she could only walk her own path. She would leave these small-minded people behind.
