Chapter 695: These Two Are Not Simple

Chapter 695: Chapter 695: These Two Are Not Simple

It had been almost half a month since they set out, and they had only reached this place when they encountered Lin Xinlan.

Their story was very simple, but for farmers who had lived a plain life, this experience was already quite extraordinary.

Lin Xinlan, seeing that they were honest people, kindly took them in for two days, let them rest sufficiently, and then gave them some money to send them on their way home.

The two of them were endlessly grateful to her and regarded her as a living Bodhisattva who rescued those suffering in hardship.

Lin Xinlan smiled bitterly to herself.

She was no living Bodhisattva, for she couldn’t even save herself.

She then told them that her last name was Mu, and her name was Mu Sirong, from a certain county in H city.

"Big sister, is it just you alone at home?" Yang Ming curiously asked.

Lin Xinlan nodded, "Yes, it’s just me living here by myself."

Yang Ming nodded empathetically, though he had many more curious questions in his mind, he tactfully refrained from asking them.

Everyone has their own story, everyone has secrets they cannot tell.

Lin Xinlan arranged two rooms for them to stay in.

Making the beds and cleaning was all done by Yang Shan.

Her hands were quick and deft, and in no time, she had tidied everything up.

"What an able and good girl." Lin Xinlan complimented her with a smile, and Yang Shan shyly smiled back.

"Grandma Mu, your voice is really pleasant. If I were just listening to your voice, I would have thought you were only thirty years old."

Lin Xinlan smiled faintly, a trace of sadness momentarily flashing in her eyes without a trace.

The dinner was also prepared by Yang Shan, her cooking was very good, and Lin Xinlan’s stomach growled just from smelling the fragrance.

She hadn’t had much of an appetite lately, but today she ate particularly well, and after the meal, her body even felt much better, as if she had grown several years younger.

She hadn’t spoken with anyone in a long time, and after chatting with them for a while, they each went back to their bedrooms to sleep.

In the middle of the night, Yang Ming’s leg illness flared up, causing him such pain that his face turned deathly pale and his forehead was covered with sweat.

Yang Shan had not encountered such a problem for the first time; she calmly dealt with it, using a towel with boiling water to apply heat to his joints and then poured hot water for him to take his medicine.

Yang Ming’s legs were full and muscular, but because of his leg illness, the veins and tendons in his legs protruded and were faintly throbbing, looking like wriggling earthworms, quite frightening.

It was evident that he was in considerable pain, but he clenched his teeth tightly and didn’t make a sound.

Lin Xinlan stood for a while and then asked, "How did your leg illness come about?"

"A few years back my grandfather fell down from the mountain, and his bone broke. Although it was set back in place later, it often hurts, especially when the weather is cold, the pain gets much worse," Yang Shan explained in his stead.

"I think it’s better to call the hospital and take him to take a look," Lin Xinlan suggested.

Yang Ming gasped for breath and shook his head, "Big sister, thanks for your kindness... I know my legs, no matter what, they can’t be cured. It will be okay after the pain passes by itself. You should go to sleep, I’m really sorry for disturbing you."

Lin Xinlan said calmly, "Then I’ll go rest, call me if you need anything."

"Okay," Yang Shan nodded slightly.

Lin Xinlan returned to her bedroom with a slight frown.

She could sense that these two were not simple at all, definitely not just ordinary farmers.

Did they encounter her by chance or did they come specifically for her?

But one thing was for certain, they had no connection with Rong Shaoze; otherwise, Rong Shaoze would have appeared before her by now.
