Eat My Childless Life: The Little Fisher Girl is Poor and Fierce

Chapter 288 A fickle and philandering scumbag

Lin Chang'er lowered her eyes and said, "Wait a little longer, let's talk about it when Grandpa Village Head and Uncle Eleven come back."

The stars in the little goldfish's eyes dimmed, and it let out an "Oh," looking somewhat disappointed.

Lin Chang'er found it amusing and ruffled his little head, "Why aren't you happy yet?"

"Plan before you act. If we're going to take action, we need to investigate the whole matter thoroughly first, right?"

The little goldfish nodded. "Mother is right."

Lin Chang'er smiled and said, "Alright, go wash your hands and face first, and eat a full meal for dinner later."

Although Lin Chang'er said this, she still felt there was a 90% chance that Wu Qingfeng and his group had encountered some trouble.

However, this time he brought along all the trained fighters, and they were all wiped out.

Then the enemy should not be underestimated.

Lin Chang'er watched the little rascals swarming to the backyard, her eyes darting around, and a plan quickly formed in her mind.

At the same time, in the dungeon of the Sun family mansion in Changhe Town.

Liu Zi rubbed his eyes and woke up. The moment he opened his eyes, he sat up abruptly, his gaze fixed on the dim oil lamp outside the fence, when he suddenly thought of something.

He frantically searched around, and in the next instant, he found his number brothers, Xiao Wu, Xiao Qi, and Xiao Ba, in the same cell.

"Wake up, wake up!" Liu Zi reached out, only to find his body limp and powerless.

Fortunately, the effects of the sleeping potion had almost worn off, and Xiao Wu, Xiao Qi, and Xiao Ba slowly woke up.

"What happened?" Xiao Wu asked.

Liu Zi frowned. "We've been tricked. I wonder how Third Master is doing." Damn it, they didn't lock them up with Third Master.

"Liu Zi?" At that moment, a familiar voice came from next door.

"Big brother?" Liu Zi's eyes widened.

Ah Da hummed in agreement. "Ah Er and Ah San are with me, along with Brother Li Mian."

Liu Zi breathed a sigh of relief. "Where's Third Master?"

"Third Master isn't here," said Ada.

Liu Zi frowned again and swore, "I told you that you shouldn't drink tea offered by strangers when you're out and about. Now look what's happened, we've been tricked."

It's also their fault for underestimating us, thinking we were just here to take someone away, and that we could reason with them or use force if necessary.

As a result, he was fooled by a smiling face and knocked out by a cup of tea.

Ah Da remained relatively calm, saying, "Third Master's life should be safe."

Liu Zi was getting a little annoyed. "Talking is useless. We should have left someone outside to keep watch."

Who would have thought that there would be so many twists and turns in the home of a mere wealthy man?

Right now, people outside don't know what's going on inside, and they don't know what's happening outside either.

Although Miss Lin was clever, she certainly never imagined that a group of skilled fighters could defeat Third Master here.

Ah Da comforted him, "Third Master should be able to adapt to the situation. Let's wait until we recover our strength and then seize the opportunity to escape. Brother Li Mian is seriously injured and has developed a high fever."

Liu Zi became even more anxious, "What should we do now?"

Ah Dao said, "Miss Lin is a smart person; she will surely notice something is wrong."

Liu Zi sighed. That's true, but Miss Lin probably doesn't understand the intricacies involved!

They say even a clever housewife can't cook without rice. She knows nothing, so how can she save them?

Even if she sensed something was wrong, if she came alone, wouldn't that be like sending herself to her death?

Unless she brings her brothers from the sea defense team to fight her way in.

But that's absolutely not allowed; this could easily be classified as a popular uprising.

Although Miss Lin was bold, she still dared not go to extremes.

Liu Zi sighed, feeling even more worried.

As night fell, Xiao Shiyi and Zhou Hai returned from Lijia Village and the county town respectively.

Bai Shaoan and County Magistrate Li also returned with Zhou Hai.

Xiao Shiyi returned early and had already told Li Mian about the situation in Li Family Village. Li Mian hadn't gone back.

Looking at Zhou Hai's side, Lin Chang'er already knew the answer without even asking.

Something must have happened.

Bai Shaoan spoke first: "Third Brother is reliable. He wouldn't just disappear without a word. He must have been tricked."

"Before we came back, we took a detour to Changhe Town. Sister Chang'er, guess what?"

Lin Chang'er asked, "What's wrong?"

Bai Shaoan laughed and said, "The purchasing agent of Master Sun's household is currently making a large-scale purchase of supplies needed for the wedding."

Lin Chang'er was shocked: "Master Sun is getting married again?"

According to the information she obtained from Aunt Li today, that Master Sun has already married sixteen concubines. Why is he still marrying more? Doesn't he want more?

Bai Shaoan shook his head, "The Sun family is marrying off their daughter tomorrow."

Lin Chang'er made two "oh" sounds, thinking to herself, "In this life, marriage is a very normal and important event."

What does this have to do with Wu Qingfeng's disappearance?

Lin Chang'er's eyes darted around, and she blurted out, "You mean, Master Sun is inviting Lord Wu to his wedding banquet?"

That makes sense, after all, Wu Qingfeng is the head of a county!

It would be such a great honor for him to attend!

Bai Shaoan shook his head, "To be precise, the Sun family is not marrying off their daughter, but rather taking in a son-in-law."

Lin Chang'er scratched her head. "Is there any difference?"

Bai Shaoan choked, looked at Lin Chang'er, and thought she was acting a little silly today.

At this moment, Magistrate Li spoke up: "The Sun family's daughter has never been engaged before, nor has she been discussing marriage recently."

The Sun family was a prominent family in Changhe Town.

Weddings in wealthy families involved a complex set of procedures, none of which could be omitted.

Lin Chang'er nodded to Magistrate Li, not quite understanding what they were talking about, but then she saw him also nod solemnly to her, his face full of the expression that said, "Miss Lin, you should understand now."

Lin Chang'er's heart skipped a beat, and she suddenly opened her eyes wide, saying incredulously, "So, after all that you two have said, are you trying to say that the son-in-law of the Sun family is what Lord Wu means?"

Bai Shaoan snapped his fingers and breathed a long sigh of relief. "My perfectly normal, clever little sister Chang'er is finally back."

County Magistrate Li nodded with a deep look in his eyes.

Lin Chang'er rested her chin on her hand. "That can't be, can it? Doesn't Master Sun know about Lord Wu's background?"

Knowing this, they still dared to do it; do they not take the Wu family of the capital seriously?

At this moment, Little Eleven, who was shoveling rice nearby, said timidly, "Could it be that Miss Sun is as beautiful as an angel, and Lord Wu fell in love with her at first sight? Otherwise..."

"Otherwise what?" Lin Chang'er frowned.

Wu Qingfeng was not a lecherous man, and he had his own plans for his life.

They might occasionally act impulsively, but they would never do something like falling in love at first sight and taking the initiative to visit someone.

She refused to believe that he was a fickle, unfaithful scumbag!

So, Lin Chang'er had another flash of inspiration, "I understand, it must be that Master Sun took a fancy to Lord Wu and wanted to recruit him as his son-in-law, but Lord Wu refused, so the Sun family forced him to stay."

But that's not right, "However, the number that went with Lord Wu..."

After a pause, realizing that Magistrate Li was unaware that Lord Wu had other people under his command in the prefecture and county, Lin Chang'er changed her words, "Several brothers, all of whom are the most skilled in my area. Ordinary servants and guards are no match for them."

Bai Shaoan smiled and shook his head, "Sister Chang'er, so this matter is definitely not that simple..."
