Chapter 15: Leaving the Lin Family

Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations

“Alright, alright, alright. Whatever you want. I’ll do as you wish. Don’t be angry. Rest well and don’t cause trouble anymore.”

Lin Ran and Lin Ming were in the courtyard and heard Lin Xue and Yu Niang’s words clearly. For this reason, when Yu Niang walked out and looked at Lin Ran guiltily, Lin Ran turned around and took out her blanket.

“Ran, what are you doing?” When Lin Ming saw Lin Ran take out the blanket, he thought that she was really going to move to the woodshed. He went forward to stop her and said, “Ran, she was joking. Don’t take it seriously. How can anyone live in the woodshed?”

Lin Ran looked at Lin Ming and smiled. “I know what you mean, so you don’t have to stop me. I won’t move to the woodshed. I have my own home, so I don’t need to live in the woodshed.”

With that, Lin Ran left the courtyard and walked toward her house. The two brothers of the Lin family did not live together. Lin Ran’s original house was a little remote and was closer to the foot of the mountain.

Yu Niang was stunned as she watched Lin Ran walk out with the blanket.

When she came back to her senses, Lin Ran was already far away. She panicked.

No, she could not let Lin Ran leave just like that. Otherwise, when her husband returned, he would beat her to death.

At the thought of this, Yu Niang chased after her. As she chased, she shouted, “Ran, Ran, stop.”

“Ran, Ran, don’t go!”

Lin Ran ignored her and walked straight to her home using her memory. It was not like she did not have a home, so there was no reason for her to rely on others.

If she was really just a 13-year-old girl, she might not have dared to. Fortunately, she was not. She had lived for 36 years in her previous life and had seen all kinds of things. She just had to live alone and she was unafraid.

Yu Niang shouted very loudly and quickly attracted the attention of the people in the village. They walked out of the house and looked at one person walking and the other chasing. They did not understand what was going on.

An auntie with a poor relationship with Yu Niang saw Lin Ran passing by her house and grabbed her. She asked, “Lin Ran, what are you doing? Why are you even holding a blanket?”

“Auntie Liu, I’m going home to stay.”

“Aren’t you living at your uncle’s house? Why are you going home again? It’s not safe for a girl like you to live at the foot of the mountain. Listen to me and don’t go.”

Lin Ran smiled and pretended to be strong. “Auntie Liu, I appreciate your kindness. I don’t want to live alone, but I have no choice. Lin Xue was punished and is in a bad mood, so she doesn’t want me around. Just now, she asked me to stay in the woodshed. You know what kind of place the woodshed is. If I really live there, I’ll definitely fall sick.”

“What? Lin Xue let you stay in the woodshed? How could she do that? Besides, it’s not your fault. She was in the wrong. Shouldn’t she be punished?”

“Oh right. What did your aunt say? Didn’t she persuade Lin Xue?”

Lin Ran smiled bitterly, lowered her head slightly, and whispered, “What can she say? She’s in a difficult position too. I don’t want to make things difficult for her. I should go back to my own house. Fortunately, my house is still around. Otherwise, I really wouldn’t have a place to live.”

“Alright, Auntie Liu, I can’t talk to you anymore. The house hasn’t been occupied for a long time, so I still have to tidy it up. I have to go.”

With that, Lin Ran left in a hurry. However, her words left a lot of things in Auntie Liu’s heart.
