Chapter 238 Lin Yanqing, what are you doing?! Taking advantage of me?!
Chapter 238 Lin Yanqing, what are you doing?! Taking advantage of me?!
Lin Chang'er looked up upon hearing this and happened to see a fleeting firework explode in the air.
Lin Chang'er's heart skipped a beat. She really was right... her jinx had actually come true.
That bastard of hers, he's really trying to lure her away from the mountain.
"Attention! Everyone from the pirates who have come to Linshui Village, return to defend!" Lin Chang'er shouted.
The men who were comforting their loved ones immediately stood up and ran to the car they had come in, without even having time to say goodbye.
The women and children of Zhoujia Village ran a short distance to see them off.
The horses, donkeys, and oxen seemed to sense the unusual emotions and cooperated very well, making the return journey even faster than usual.
When Lin Chang'er and the others returned to the village, they saw that archers were hidden on the towers everywhere.
The sounds of battle cries were deafening ahead. Old Master Huo, though old, was still vigorous, while Huo Eleven provided support from the side.
Gu Silang and Zhou Li echoed each other perfectly, leaving no room for error.
This time, Little Goldfish was without Lin Yanqing as her partner and was fighting alone. True to her name, she was as slippery as a fish in water.
Ah Da and Ah Er, along with several guards, were watching over them.
After a period of training, the brothers of the coastal defense team have all made progress.
Today is different from before; they are fighting at close range during the day, and everyone is getting excited about the fight.
Lin Chang'er did not hesitate and led her brothers into the battle.
Lin Yanqing quickly found the little goldfish, and the uncle and nephew worked together seamlessly.
However, this time the pirates who came ashore were many more numerous and more ruthless than before, presumably because they had suffered losses at their hands in the previous incidents and were seeking revenge.
Fortunately, Lin Chang'er sensed something was wrong early on; otherwise, they would have succeeded today.
They were ruthless, but the coastal defense team members were no pushovers either; they swiftly and decisively struck with their knives.
With archers providing cover from higher ground, Linshui Village quickly regained the upper hand.
What surprised Lin Chang'er was that she actually saw the figures of several men from Lijia Village.
One of them was the father of the child named Li Qingyang. This man looked thin, but he was agile.
He probably stole the knife from the pirates. Although he was completely haphazard, he was quick-witted and followed Li Er, helping the coastal defense team to finish off the enemies. He almost never missed.
After another half hour of fierce fighting, Linshui Village once again defeated the pirates.
As the gong sounded, the doors and windows along the road, which had been tightly closed, opened one after another.
The villagers cleaned up the battlefield step by step.
Lin Chang'er didn't even have time to catch her breath before checking if the little ones were injured.
When Lin Chang'er saw that the little goldfish's face was covered in blood, she was startled. "Little goldfish, are you injured?"
The little goldfish wiped its face, grinned, revealing a set of white teeth, and said, "Mother, it's the blood of those bastards. Mother is so amazing, you really guessed right."
Gu Silang and Zhou Li also gathered around, with Zhou Li chiming in, "Yes, yes, Third Sister-in-law, tell me quickly, how did you guess it?"
Gu Silang was also very enthusiastic, "Yes, yes, Third Sister-in-law, please teach us quickly, so that we can become fortune tellers like you in the future."
Lin Chang'er ignored their flattery, "Tell me first, are either of you injured?"
Gu Silang and Zhou Li hurriedly shook their heads, and Lin Yanqing came over and said, "Sister, Brother Li's arm is injured."
"It's just a minor injury, nothing to worry about." Zhou Li waved his hand as if it were a source of pride.
Lin Chang'er dared not be careless and lightly tapped his head, "Nonsense, hurry up and get it bandaged."
"It's really nothing, Third Sister-in-law, please tell us first!"
"Yan Qing, take him to get bandaged up."
"Hey, Third Sister-in-law, I'm really fine, I don't hurt at all, Third Sister-in-law, Sister-in-law, let's chat for another two coins..."
Zhou Li struggled, and even after being carried away by Lin Yanqing, he still wouldn't behave, reaching out his hand towards Lin Chang'er from afar.
Lin Yanqing slapped him, and Zhou Li cried out in pain, "Lin Yanqing, what are you doing! Taking advantage of me!"
Lin Yanqing patted him again, "Behave yourself. If you keep yelling, I'll tell my sister you got kicked in the leg too, and see if she'll let you go next time."
"Lin Yanqing, you're such a tattletale, you shameless scoundrel. Don't try to scare me with my third sister-in-law. Let me tell you, my father is the village head, the highest-ranking official in Linshui Village. You better watch yourself."
"Alright, alright, Uncle Hai is the boss, right? Uncle Hai listens to my older sister, don't you believe me?"
"You, you, you, is this how you play the game? Lin Yanqing, let's break off our friendship for a day."
Lin Yanqing suppressed a laugh, thinking that this kid was becoming more and more childish.
Amidst the commotion, Lin Chang'er had already sent Liu Zi back with the little goldfish to wash up.
Old Huo and Zhou Hai quickly cleaned up the battlefield; the number of pirates who landed today was three times that of the previous times.
When Zhou Hai heard the number, he was startled and incredibly relieved. He and Chang Yatou had only taken one team with them, leaving the second and third teams in the village; otherwise…
Thinking about it, I felt a wave of fear wash over me again.
In the end, I felt it must be the blessing of our ancestors. After a few days, once the house is all cleaned up, we should hold a proper memorial service.
Old Huo remained remarkably calm, as if these were all commonplace occurrences.
After speaking with Lin Chang'er, he went to check on the wounded.
Suddenly remembering something, she said, "Chang'er, leave things here to me and Hai Zi. You go home and rest."
It's really tough on a young girl like her to run back and forth.
Lin Chang'er had no worries about Old Master Huo or Zhou Hai, so she went home first.
By this time, the Gu family had returned to their old house. There were many people standing or sitting in the courtyard, all of whom were familiar faces—people from Lijia Village.
When Liu Zi went to pick them up, he promised to take them back to Li Family Village.
But once the matter was settled, Lin Chang'er took out the carriage and donkey cart for use, and the Gu family had no vehicles to take them back. They had originally planned to wait a while.
After all, Lijia Village is not close to Linshui Village, and they haven't eaten much these past few days, although they ate some fruit at the Gu family's house.
But what good is that little bit?
To everyone's surprise, after waiting a little longer, they heard that pirates had invaded.
They couldn't run anymore, so they simply hid with the Gu family.
Li Mian, Li Er, and two other strong men felt they couldn't let the people of Linshui Village think they were cowards, so they took the initiative to help.
Li Xun was originally going too, but his aunt held him back.
However, he was originally a scholar and not very strong, so going there would easily result in his death.
As soon as Lin Chang'er entered the courtyard, everyone looked at her.
Both Li Er and Li Mian were covered in blood.
Li Mian was holding Li Qingyang, who looked at her father with admiration. The little girl smiled brightly when she saw Lin Chang'er, "Daddy is just as amazing as Madam..."
