Chapter 164: The Laughing Woman

Lan Li walked fast and urgently, as if someone was chasing him behind him, and Lin Yu had to trot to keep up with him.

"Wait a minute......"

Lan Li didn't look back.

"Lan Li!"

Only then did he turn his head in surprise and look at Lin Yu, as if he had just noticed her following behind him.

Lin Yu asked politely, "Can you walk a little slower?" ”

Lan Li turned his head to look ahead, probably in the direction of his house, and then looked at Lin Yu again: "At home, if you don't have your brother's permission, don't speak." ”

"Brother? You have a brother in your family, don't you? ”

"Hmm."

"And who else are in your family? I'm familiar with it now. ”

Lan Li hesitated: "There is also a sister-in-law." ”

"Is my sister-in-law from my tribe?"

"The first sister-in-law died in childbirth when she gave birth, and not long ago the king won the battle of the Arabella Department, and my brother robbed a woman from the Arabella Department as his wife."

Lin Yu paused.

“…… Is there anything I need to pay attention to? ”

Lan Li said bluntly: "You are too good-looking and too clean. ”

Lin Yu looked at the mud at his feet: "It's better for me to paint myself a little dirty?" ”

Lan Li hesitated for a moment, then nodded hesitantly.

Lin Yu squatted down to get his hands dirty, and wiped a few more handfuls on his face.

He seemed to have something else to say but didn't say it, he looked at Lin Yu for a while, and finally took her on in silence.

They gradually moved away from the king's tent, and occasionally someone recognized Lan Li and greeted him loudly.

When approaching the king's tent, most of those people were standing on the ground, and Lan Li would often stop to greet each other, Lin Yu was afraid that someone would recognize her face, so she kept her head down, and sometimes, she could recognize who they were by the other party's voice - most of them were Cangtao's henchmen, or officers in the Beirong army.

When they arrived in the outer area, most of them were on horses, and their voices were completely unfamiliar to Lin Yu.

She looked up curiously to take a look, and the old man who was talking to Lan Li happened to meet her gaze.

From their conversation, Lin Yu guessed that he was probably an elder relative of Lan Li, and asked him when he would come back.

When he spoke to Lan Li, his expression was enthusiastic and his tone was intimate, and when he saw Lin Yu raise his head, the smile on his face immediately retracted.

"Who is this woman?"

"Brought back from Datu, the king needs a maid to wait for the Yan clan."

"The king gave her to you?"

Lan Li hesitated, and said slowly: "...... Right. ”

"Then she's your woman."

Lan Li turned around and glanced at Lin Yu: "......"

"Didn't you teach her the rules along the way?" The elder rebuked dissatisfiedly: "How can a woman stare at someone so straight? ”

He saw Lin Yu's scimitar hanging from his waist again, and he was even more angry: "How can you still let her wear a knife?" ”

Lan Li looked at Lin Yu, he knew Lin Yu's identity and understood that he was not qualified to order her, but Cang Tao ordered that Lin Yu should be regarded as an "ordinary person", so he hesitated for a while, and said in an uncertain tone: "Give me the knife." ”

This appearance angered the elder, and he pulled the horsewhip from his waist and angrily pushed Lan Li.

"How did you come back from Da Tu and become like a! Doesn't staying by the King's side bring you closer to our God!? Didn't God make you more courageous and heroic? How can you let a big smeared woman ride on your head?! You should hit her with your fists, with a horsewhip, so that she understands who is her master! Instead of acting like a coward, as if you have her consent to act! ”

Lin Yu frowned, and she dragged Lan Li, who was being pushed a little embarrassed, behind her: "I am the sword-wielding maid of the Yan clan, responsible for protecting her every step of the way." My mission is to kill all those who are disrespectful to the Yan clan, do you have a problem with my sword? ”

The older herdsman was even more angry, his expression was fierce, and a burst of Beirong dialect broke out from his mouth because he was speaking too fast, and Lin Yu couldn't understand it.

She understood a few fragments intermittently: "...... Lesser ...... Crushing! She is a goddess, how can she be like you...... You're just an ordinary Datu woman, a slave girl who was robbed by us...... Dare to be so arrogant......"

Just as he was approaching Lin Yu, Lan Li quickly stopped in front of her, "Uncle, I will teach her a good lesson!" ”

Without waiting for the other party to answer, he dragged Lin Yu away.

And after walking far away, Lin Yu could still hear the herdsman chasing after them angrily scolding, and followed the roar for a long distance.

"Why is he so excited?" Lin Yu was puzzled.

"You are a big Tu person, Uncle doesn't like a big Tu person."

Lin Yu was puzzled: "Am I arrogant? ”

Lan Li said: "You are the Yan family, naturally noble. It's just that now you're Amu. ”

She understood.

Whoever is not humble and respectful enough is considered arrogant.

"Didn't you say that the woman who was robbed was very respected?"

Lan Li frowned: "Who did you listen to?" He lied to you. How can a snatched woman be respected? She doesn't have her mother's family to support her. Even if she has the support of her mother's family, it is her husband's thing to marry a woman. ”

Lin Yu: "......"

"And you shouldn't look at a Beijon man like that." Lan Li was scolded by the elders, but he scolded the conversation: "You are not the Yan family, you are Amu." You can say that you are the maid of the Yan clan, but it does not prevent others from treating you as a slave girl. Because Yan is not here. You can't, and you shouldn't, look up at anyone. ”

"So what should I do?"

"Look down at your toes as a sign of obedience, and bend down a little more to show your respect and humility. Don't speak without the man's permission. ”

Lin Yu looked at him.

"So that no one will chase me, scold me, and want to beat me?"

"Not necessarily. Men want to hit women, and sometimes they don't need any reason. Lan Li said objectively: "But if you can't do it, someone will definitely want to teach you a lesson." ”

"I can't do it."

"It saves a lot of trouble. You should be a smart person. ”

"If you can't do it, you can't do it." Lin Yu patted the scimitar on his waist: "I want to come to this thing, just to see how many people in this world who bully the soft and are afraid of the hard, but they don't want to be bullied by anyone anymore." ”

Seeing Lin Yu's stubborn insistence, Lan Li showed an embarrassed look that wanted to speak and stopped.

He led her on a little further until he saw a tent in front of which a woman was busy at work.

Lan Li stepped forward and said, "Sister-in-law." ”

The woman lowered her eyes, glanced at Lan Li, and quickly retracted her gaze.

Lin Yu noticed that her skin was dark, her lips were dry, her cheeks were thin, her hair was dry and messy, her hands were rough, and her skin was chapped.

She was originally the daughter, wife, and even mother of the tribe of Arabella, and what happened to her tribe when it was defeated, and finally became a woman among the victors?

Why is she so silent, so cringe, so rickety?

At that moment, Lin Yu felt that he was standing beside Lan Li, although he was so close to her, he was so far away from her life.

Although she had cursed her fate countless times, she was also glad that she did not have to go through the most painful bottom of life.

…… So she had to do something.

When fate puts her in a position of more energy than ordinary people, it would be too selfish for her to only care about herself and not use that energy to do something for those in need.

Lan Li asked, "Is my brother at home?" ”

The woman shook her head in disbelief.

"This is Amu," said Lan Li, "it was given to me by the king." The king needed someone to take care of the Yan clan, so he got Amu in Datu. ”

The woman raised her eyes and glanced at Lin Yu.

When she found that Lin Yu had been looking at her, she couldn't help but be slightly stunned, and then subconsciously showed a flattering smile.
