Chapter 272 Received a Letter from an Old Friend
Seeing that the matter was basically settled, Lord Chen was much happier, no longer as worried as before. Moreover, as for the materials, he needed to go to the palace quickly. Only by finding the raw materials quickly could he find the weapons to deal with the immortal cultivators. After this trip, he felt much more relieved about Lin Qingwan and Ding Lei. At least, these two people were truly masters.
Mr. Chen left in a hurry, taking the list with him. Lin Qingwan also left the iron shop afterwards. Walking on the street, the street was still crowded with people, and the hawking sounds were endless, but I wonder how long this prosperous scene can last?
Lin Qingwan walked slowly on the street, not in a hurry or impatience. She enjoyed the lively scene and the atmosphere of the world. However, time always passed quickly. Before she knew it, she had walked to the gate of the General's Mansion. She saw the three words "General's Mansion" on the plaque at the door, which was magnificent.
The Lin family was also a military family, and their ancestors all served the court. In Lin Xiaochen's generation, there were only two male descendants, one was Lin Yiyang, and the other was Gu's child Lin Jinping. As a concubine's son, Lin Jinping was the youngest child in the family, only one year younger than Lin Qingshuang. Lin Qingwan had almost no impression of Lin Jinping.
In his memory, Lin Jinping loved fighting since he was a child. Every time his father Lin Xiaochen came home, he would always pester him to tell him about the battlefield. Over time, Lin Jinping became fond of the battlefield and pestered his father to take him to the battlefield.
Lin Yiyang was the eldest son in the family. If anyone was to be brought along, it should be Lin Yiyang.
However, Lin Yiyang knew Gu's character and was worried about her sister who had no one to take care of her. She also planned to find her mother, so she refused Lin Xiaochen's opportunity to take him with her to educate him. According to Lin Xiaochen, a man's ambition is to go far away. How can he waste time at home? But Lin Yiyang said he would not go with his father. But the young Lin Jinping kept clamoring to go.
However, Lin Jinping was too young, and Gu loved him, so she naturally didn't want him to suffer in the military camp. But Lin Jinping was stubborn, and when his parents didn't agree, he knelt outside the yard for two days and two nights without drinking a drop of water. Finally, he fainted outside the yard, and his father softened his heart and agreed.
From then on, the little Lin Jinping followed Lin Xiaochen to the border to guard and live a military life. This stay lasted for six or seven years. Now, he is probably thirteen or fourteen years old.
Lin Qingwan didn't understand her brother's temperament, nor did she know whether the child was her father's blood. But she was glad that he followed his father at a young age. If he had been raised by the vicious Gu family, Lin Qingwan would have had a vicious and cruel brother.
Gu's tragic death was her own fault, but she had to find out if this brother was her father's blood. If this brother also inherited her mother's cruelty, he'd better not mess with her. If he really came to seek revenge, don't blame her for being rude. She was not a soft-hearted person when facing her enemies. But she also hoped that this brother could follow his father and grow up to be an upright man!
Lin Qingwan put away her thoughts and walked into the courtyard. Now, Lin Qingshuang no longer dared to appear beside Lin Qingwan. Knowing that Lin Qingwan was back, she would take a detour. She had been close to the virtuous concubine in the palace recently and won the heart of the virtuous concubine. From now on, she would have a backer, not be left with nothing.
Just like now, the maid came to report that the eldest lady had returned home. Lin Qingshuang hurried back to the house. She had originally been sitting under the grape tree in the yard to enjoy the coolness. Now, she was afraid of Lin Qingwan, afraid that Lin Qingwan would remember her and all the bullying she had done to her. Lin Qingwan was someone she couldn't mess with now, but that didn't mean she wouldn't avenge her mother. When she had the ability in the future, she would definitely cut Lin Qingwan into pieces!
The virtuous concubine gave birth to the second prince, Jun Lingxuan. As long as I help the second prince to become the crown prince, I will rise to prominence in the future. As for Lin Qingwan, she can only let me step on her!
Lin Qingshuang also had her own troubles. She wanted to win the heart of the second prince. If one day, the second prince became the crown prince, she would still be the crown princess. However, the second prince was not interested in her at all. Her past scandals were discovered by everyone, and now she was an unclean woman in everyone's eyes. It was impossible for any man to like a dissolute and unclean woman.
Thinking of this, Lin Qingshuang scolded Lin Qingwan again. It was all her fault. She had hurt her mother. She would avenge this vengeance no matter what!
Lin Qingwan didn't know that she was hated again. Now, Lin Qingshuang was not worthy of her attention at all. How could she care about a small character? She just waited for her father to come back and deal with this matter!
Lin Qingwan returned to Ziyue Pavilion alone.
As soon as she entered the courtyard, the maid came to report that someone had looked for Lin Qingwan and left a letter. Then she handed the letter to Lin Qingwan. Lin Qingwan opened it and saw that it was a letter from Ma Chengfeng.
He heard that Lin Qingwan had returned to the mansion, so he wanted to come and visit her, but Lin Qingwan was not at home, and she also talked about many trivial things. Among them, he and his father had transferred all the properties from Nanzhao to Dongao Country. With the help of His Royal Highness the King of War, all the transfers had been completed, and the nationality had been changed. Now, Ma Chengfeng was already a genuine Dongao citizen.
During this period, his father also handed over the family business to him, and now, he can handle these things with ease.
The letter also said that my father's cultivation method has improved rapidly and he can now appear normally during the day. If you don't pay attention, he looks no different from a normal person, except that his face is slightly pale. But this is not a big problem. My father can also control his attraction to human blood. When he is greedy, he just drinks some animal blood. His walking is not so stiff anymore.
The letter also thanked Lin Qingwan for giving them a new life, and said that it didn't matter if he couldn't see Lin Qingwan, and there would be plenty of opportunities to meet in the future. They had now moved to the capital, not far from Lin Qingwan's residence. He also invited Lin Qingwan to visit him when she was free.
After reading the letter, Lin Qingwan chuckled. She didn't expect that Uncle Ma could walk in the daytime so soon. He must have reached the third level a long time ago. Lin Qingwan remembered that the "Zombie Training Manual" that she had taught Ma Hongtian was indeed correct. Ma Hongtian's situation was indeed very suitable for practicing this secret book.
Lin Qingwan looked at the letter again and found an address at the end of the letter, and invited Lin Qingwan to visit his house. He said that he would be at his house for the next few days and she must go over to chat when she had time.
It was undoubtedly Ma Chengfeng who was so nagging. Lin Qingwan was happy to receive the letter from her old friend. Since he invited her, there was no reason for her not to go. Even if it was to congratulate him on his new house, she should go.
Lin Qingwan has made up her mind that after teaching Mo Yanran how to draw talismans tomorrow morning, she will go to the mansion.
