The Challenge of a Farmhouse Son-in-Law
Chapter 810 - 804 Pursuit

Chapter 810: Chapter 804 Pursuit

Madam Lin couldn’t explain this away, and she began to complain about how he had stopped her from arranging a marriage for Gu Youyou.

"I said long ago that marrying her off earlier would keep her out of trouble, but you just wouldn’t listen. If she’d been married off by now, none of this would have happened."

Lin Xingyi replied impatiently, "Every time something happens, you know only to blame this and that. Why don’t you mention how you brought her to the palace in the first place? If she hadn’t gone to the palace, none of this would have happened."

"You..." Madam Lin was so taken aback that she was speechless.

"What do we do now? Even if we rescue her, she’s ruined. How can a woman without her chastity continue to live?"

Lin Xingyi was getting angry and snorted coldly, "What nonsense are you talking about? We don’t even know Youyou’s situation yet, and you’re here making wild guesses. Let me tell you, don’t worry about Youyou’s marriage; just take good care of yourself!"

Old Madam Lin was so agitated by their argument that she nearly fainted, but Daya, the maid beside her, quickly steadied her.

"Old Madam, please don’t be anxious, have a seat first."

Dizzy with panic, they remembered that the old lady had been there all along, listening to them.

They stopped arguing and went to check on the old lady together.

Lin Xingyi glared fiercely at Madam Lin and deliberately shoved her away.

Madam Lin stood behind him, gritting her teeth, wanting to say something, but seeing the old lady was genuinely upset, she swallowed back the words she was about to say.

"Mother, don’t be anxious, nothing will happen. Many people have gone out to search; please make sure not to get too worked up."

Old Madam Lin cried with tears streaming down, "Oh, how can I not be anxious? This child has suffered since she was young, and I thought that being in Beijing under my watch, she would be able to live peacefully. But one thing after another, it never stops, her life is truly bitter..."

Xiang Chun got wind of the situation and quickly went to the backyard to inform Searcy.

At the time, Searcy was feeding rats. Seeing this, Xiang Chun said urgently, "Oh, are you still in the mood to feed rats? The young lady’s in trouble, and your good days are probably over."

Searcy’s movements paused as she turned around.

"She’s in trouble? What happened?"

"The young lady has been kidnapped by bandits, and the whole family is almost driven mad with worry. And here you are, still having the heart to feed the rats."

Searcy was suddenly shocked, and the bowl with food fell to the ground as she grabbed Xiang Chun’s shoulder, "When did this happen?"

"Just last night!" Searcy’s cold demeanor was quite frightening, and Xiang Chun jumped in surprise.

"Last night, didn’t they say she went out for a medical call?"

Xiang Chun kept shaking her head and timidly said, "I... I don’t know!"

...

Two teams of men rode out in pursuit, and just as You Jiang had predicted, Huo Li quickly found the tracks his carriage had left. Not only that, but he also discovered the subtle clues You Jiang had intentionally had people leave behind, allowing him to guess their identity.

He said to his men coldly, "Heading for Xining, huh? Hmm, that’s right, besides Xining, who would dare shelter them."

They set off toward Xining.

Behind them were the men led by Xiao Jinyan, along with Jin Zijin.

After some investigation, Jin Zijin seemed contemplative.

Xiao Jinyan, however, was smiling, "Huo Li has been duped; she likely hasn’t been taken to Xining." Pointing towards the southern road, he said, "There are two horses that went this way. Looking at these hoof prints, one of them is probably of lighter weight, most likely Doctor Gu. The other person, well..." He smiled in a particularly irritating manner, "I wonder if cousin can guess who it might be, someone who could get Doctor Gu to willingly follow him?"
