Lin Deshan, like everyone else, had the same expression when he arrived at Lin Yuelan’s house.
He was shocked, in disbelief, and had a little heartache.
How hard must it be for a child to live in such a small, trembling, and slightly teetering thatched house?
After Lin Deshan saw Lin Yuelan, he said in disbelief, “girl, this … You live here?”
Lin YUuelan nodded and said, “yes, Uncle Lin. Is there a problem?”
There was a problem, but Lin Deshan thought about it and immediately shook his head. “No problem.” He had heard that when she was nine years old, she was forced to separate from her family.
However, he clearly remembered that a few months ago, this child had sold a big tiger to him and earned three to four hundred taels. This silver was enough to build a good house. Why didn’t she build one?
Lin Deshan followed Lin Yuelan into the house with some doubts.
Then, he immediately spotted the big white tiger that had saved him in the corner of the courtyard. It was following an unknown animal that looked like a horse. He was a little surprised.
He pointed at the big white tiger in surprise and stuttered, “that … That big …” He wanted to ask if the big white tiger had really gone to save him.
Lin Yuelan seemed to understand what he wanted to say. She nodded and said, “that road is dangerous these days, so I ask Little White to patrol it. If it sees kind people, it will help.” In fact, she had asked little white to set up an ambush there to wait for Lin Deshan.
Lin Deshan asked in confusion, “but how did it know that I was coming to the Lin family Village to find you?”
Lin Yuelan sniffed Lin Deshan, then thought for a moment and said, “maybe animals have a more sensitive sense of smell. You have the smell of red wine on you, and only a few people have this red wine.”
This explanation seemed very reasonable.
Lin Deshan sniffed his body, but he couldn’t smell the red wine at all. His sense of smell was very sensitive. As the owner of a medicinal shop, he often had to rely on his sense of smell to determine the medicinal material. However, he really couldn’t smell the red wine on his body because the last time he drank red wine was three days ago.
However, animals had a better sense of smell than humans.
The truth was Lin Deshan had drunk the red wine which had been imbued with the spring water. The spring water was stored in his body. The water had a special attraction to animals. Therefore, little white could immediately tell that this was the person it had been waiting for.
Of course, neither Lin Yuelan nor little white would explain it to him.
“Girl, is that a horse?” Lin Deshan asked the other question.
The black and white lines looked a little conspicuous.
However, his big white head looked very cute.
Lin Yuelan nodded and said, “yes, it’s a horse. It’s a wild horse from Mount Da Ao. I thought it was quite cute, so I let it follow me back.”
Lin Deshan believed her. She could tame the king of beasts, so why not a horse?
Lin Deshan and Lin Yuelan chatted about the white tiger and white horse, and Lin Deshan then started the main topic of the day.
The two of them sat at the stone table in the courtyard. He looked around and asked worriedly, “girl, will anyone be eavesdropping outside?”
Lin Yuelan chuckled and said, “Uncle Lin, don’t worry. With little white here, no one has the guts to eavesdrop on us.”
Lin Deshan was confused. “Little white?”
Lin Yuelan pointed at the big white Tiger, which was very obedient. “That’s little white.”
Lin Deshan was a little dizzy. This was the king of all beasts. Shouldn’t it at least be named Big White?
