Chapter 455: Chapter 455 Losing Face (4)_1

"Sure." The eager looks on everyone’s faces amused Lin Ziyin. "Moreover, raising deer will offer work for some of the older folks in the village."

"Then let’s do it." Lou Zheng was thrilled by the idea and immediately decided, "If we don’t have enough deer, let Uncle Yuanshan and the young men go into the forest to find more."

"Yes, yes, Uncle Yuanshan is a great hunter, very skilled at capturing game." Some people loudly agreed, particularly the young men. They were so excited that they wished they could team up and go hunting right away.

"Hei Yi, what do you think?" Lin Ziyin asked the stern-faced man standing next to her, smiling.

At her question, the young people immediately quieted down. Right, they couldn’t rashly rush into this; all of them had to work. Who had time to go into the forest? Moreover, with the people from the prince’s estate around, it’s not their place to make a move.

"Is that Yuanshan person good at hunting?" Hei Yi was a very steady person, and not prideful just because he worked for Chu Suifeng.

"He used to make a living by hunting. No one in the village knows animals and the woods better than he does," Lou Zheng replied, his words revealing his admiration for Yuanshan.

"Have him lead the way for us. I will arrange for people to search in the mountains. Lady, rest assured that the deer and roe deer we find will not be injured," Hei Yi pondered for a moment before replying.

Lin Ziyin nodded, "Give Elder Yuanshan time off, but still pay his salary."

"Alright, I’ll tell him later. I’m sure he’ll be thrilled," Lou Zheng laughingly agreed.

Old Madame He watched as the people of Shili Village spoke as they pleased, ignoring her and her family. She was silently furious.

Before the old lady could express her anger, Lian from the Lian Family, twisted her waist and criticized, "Mother, you must watch carefully. These young ones don’t respect you at all. Poor granddaughter, her mother passed away early, these kids grew up without guidance and turned wayward."

Hearing this, the old lady became even more infuriated.

He Zhen wished he could seal Lian’s mouth. An ignorant woman! Doesn’t she have any sense of the situation? Fanning the flames at such a time, isn’t this going to destroy the He Family?

He Bang, however, saw nothing wrong with his wife’s actions and agreed with her, "Mother, you must discipline them in the future. The disgrace isn’t limited to them, we will lose face, too, when we go out," he said, fanning the flames.

"Second Brother, no one would mistake you for a mute if you stayed quiet," He Zhen chided his brother, his face ashen.

"Third Brother, we agreed to live here when we came, right? Why are you backing out now?" Sister-in-law An was also blinded by the prosperity of the Lin family and unsatisfied, she began to belittle He Zhen.

"Third Brother, if you want to leave, you can go on your own. Anyways, I want to stay here with Mother and live in the grand mansion. Lin Changshu, hurry up and get someone to take care of your maternal grandmother," He Lian admonished He Zhen, then turned to lecture Lin Changshu.

The He Family seemed to have forgotten all about Lin Ziyin and Hei Yi’s earlier opposition and threatening words, no, it’s more correct to say they deliberately ignored them.

"Ha ha, after all these years remaining idle, even an insignificant ’Earth Mouse’ dares to jump around in front of me," Hei Yi chuckled coldly, all of his aura like an Asura basking in the hellfire, striking fear into all who saw him.

Though the villagers of Shili village were familiar with him, they were still awed by his domineering presence, each gathering their emotions, standing obediently by and awaiting the drama to unfold.

"They’ve gone mad, I’ll take them away now. Ziyin, for the sake of your maternal grandfather, please spare them this once," He Zhen gritted his teeth and pleaded again. If it wasn’t for the fact that He Lian and the old lady were his biological sister and mother, he would have run away by now, why would he go through the fear of landing himself in danger here?
