"Alright, you should go back to your room now and stop worrying about the outside world. Brother, can you take a look for me? I’m going to Manghuang Mountain. If anything happens, you can find me there."
Just as Lin Caisang predicted, Lin Changyi just muttered a few words with children his age outside the Ya Family’s door, and even those whispers were very quiet. However, the Ya couple, who had been sulking at home since early morning, rushed out.
Fortunately, Lin Changyi and his friends ran fast, otherwise they would have been caught and punished.
Later, the Ya couple angrily rushed to the old house and railed at Ya Guman, blaming him for agreeing to the marriage without informing them as his parents.
Fortunately, beforehand, Ya Guman had already anticipated the possibility of rumors and had gone to invite them with many witnesses present.
When several witnesses came forward, the Ya couple had nothing to say.
However, they later regained their momentum, expressing disagreement with Ya Guman’s marriage arrangement and claiming that Lin Caiqing was too young. It was a waste to marry her off to Ya Guman. Their words were rebutted by Clan Chief Ya.
Clan Chief Ya said, let Ya Guman continue to live with the Ya family.
The Ya couple was obviously not pleased. They publicly chastised Ya Guman; there wasn’t a single good word for their son, only criticisms.
The people who had come to give their blessings were shocked. They all came out to accuse the Ya couple. The couple, however, didn’t see the error of their ways and continued their accusations with more venom, throwing the nastiest words at Ya Guman.
In short, at the end, Clan Chief Ya directly suggested that Ya Guman should sever ties with his parents.
Meanwhile, Lin Caisang was on Manghuang Mountain accompanying Yang Lin, who was awaiting news. The two talked while peeling fruit for a long time before they received the news from Lin Changhong.
It was reported that the marriage was settled and Ya Guman’s future life would be somewhat easier. He wouldn’t be drowned in the villagers’ spit because of his parents.
Two days later, Lin Caisang brought half of the dried fruit from Manghuang Mountain, along with many homemade healing spices, and drove the carriage she had previously taken from the Eldest Prince’s Mansion to the Zeng Family.
As she was about to leave after dropping off the items, she saw Nanny Bai from the Elder Princess’ Mansion, accompanied by guards, coming to pick her up.
"Nanny Bai, why are you here? Does the Elder Princess need something?" Lin Caisang was startled. She had never encountered this before, and the only thing she could think of was that something had happened at the Elder Princess’s Mansion.
"Don’t worry, Miss Lin. The Elder Princess is fine. It’s just that Jianan City has been restless recently. The Elder Princess was worried about your safety when you travel alone to her mansion, so she ordered me to bring guards to escort you," Nanny Bai explained.
Upon hearing this, Lin Caisang immediately understood. After a few instructions to Old Man Zeng and his son, she left with Nanny Bai.
At the Elder Princess’ Mansion, not only the Eldest Prince but also General Zhi Lingyang and Senior Madam Zhi Jin An’an were present when Lin Caisang arrived. She couldn’t help but feel grateful for the Elder Princess’s consideration.
The Elder Princess must have been worried about her safety while traveling, so she directly invited Jin An’an to her mansion, right?
