Chapter 407 Wheat Harvest(5)_1
"Who is it?" Lin Ziyin asked.
"It’s Little Pang and Zhou Dasheng." Qiaoqiao had been in the Lin family for a long time and had come to know pretty much everyone in the village. The Zhou family had previously bullied the Lins, and Qiaoqiao had developed a deep dislike for them, particularly after they tried to pin something on Lin Ziyin last time. Earlier when Pang came knocking, she had wanted to send them away, but these two were summoned by the old master.
Having no choice, Qiaoqiao reported to Lin Ziyin, leaving it to her to make the decision.
"I will go out to see them." Lin Ziyin stood up and announced. The courtyard was full of machinery, making it inconvenient for people to come in. Lin Ziyin was all too familiar with just how troublesome the Zhou family could be. So when they came to her door, she knew she had to meet them face to face.
"Ah, Ziyin!" Little Pang zeroed in on Lin Ziyin as soon as she saw her and immediately tried to grab her hand.
"Just stand still and speak, you scared her half to death by jumping at her like that." Qiaoqiao stepped in front of Lin Ziyin, blocking her.
Little Pang’s plump hand, poised in mid-air as it failed to grab Lin Ziyin, looked quite odd.
She attempted to move past Qiaoqiao to talk directly to Lin Ziyin, but was blocked again by Qiaoqiao. Little Pang was anxious, but she dare not argue with Qiaoqiao as she knew Qiaoqiao was Lin Ziyin’s maid, and her influence was strong. Having come to Lin Ziyin with a request, she naturally couldn’t afford to offend her favorite servant.
"It’s hot outside, and your body is just recovering. Why are you out in the sun?" With nothing else to say, Little Pang tried to steer the conversation away from the real issue.
