The Princess of Northern Land
Chapter 835: Return (6)

Chapter 835: Chapter 835: Return (6)

After traveling for eight days, on the evening of the eighth day, Lin Ziyin saw the outlines of Shili Village.

"Finally, home." Lin Ziyin excitedly looked out the window.

"Grandfather and the others should be very happy to see you," Chu Suifeng said with a smile.

"Yes." Lin Ziyin excitedly nodded continuously.

"Crackling and popping." While they were speaking, suddenly, the sound of firecrackers erupted in the village.

The horses were a bit frightened, but since they were well-trained, they quickly calmed down.

The sound of firecrackers continued without pause, and the pungent smell of gunpowder quickly wafted over.

"Did they already know I was coming back?" Lin Ziyin asked excitedly.

"Yes," Chu Suifeng smiled and nodded, "Someone was sent yesterday to inform them."

Not long after the carriage entered the main road of the village, villagers, appearing out of nowhere, stood on both sides of the road, continuously clapping and cheering, "The princess, the princess is back."

These people were not only villagers from their own village and servants of the Lin Family, but also from nearby villages, almost all gathered together. These were the people who first benefited from Lin Ziyin’s kindness; because of the Lin Family, because of their workshops, because of Lin Ziyin’s support, their lives had changed drastically.

Thus, during the time Lin Ziyin was missing, they were almost sleepless with worry, fearing that Lin Ziyin might encounter some misfortune in the North Country.

"Grandfather, big brother, sister-in-law, elder sister, and brother-in-law." When Lin Ziyin saw her relatives all standing in the middle of the road, she could no longer hold back, and had the coachman stop and jumped down from the carriage herself.

"Be careful." Chu Suifeng, seeing her eagerness, carefully protected her.

As soon as the carriage stopped, the elder and others all came forward. When they saw Lin Ziyin jumping down, Lin Zige and Hui Niang along with other women just could no longer hold back, and all started sobbing loudly.

When the women cried, the other women in the village also started crying.

Many children also began to wipe their tears, Changting had grown much taller, and he stared intently at Lin Ziyin, trying hard not to let the tears in his eyes fall.

He firmly remembered the words Lin Ziyin once taught him: "A man does not easily flick away his tears," he is a little man and should not cry.

Much younger Yanzhi did not care about all that and had already run up and hugged Lin Ziyin, sobbing loudly.

"Grandpa, it’s okay, I’m back," Lin Ziyin said with tears in her eyes, while gently stroking Yanzhi’s head.

"Good that you are back." The elder was especially excited, his voice trembling as he spoke.

Lin Ziyin noticed that it had been just over a month since they last met. The old man’s face had more wrinkles, and he looked particularly haggard, as did other family members, each of them wearing a look of exhaustion.

"Princess." Qiaoqiao looked at her with tearful eyes and knelt before her, "It’s all me, the useless servant..."

She choked up and could not continue speaking.

"You silly girl, why do you take all the blame on yourself?" Lin Ziyin came forward and personally helped her up. These past days, Lin Ziyin had been worried about Qiaoqiao, this girl, fearing she might needlessly blame herself, similar to Chu Suifeng taking the blame on himself.

Sure enough, this girl had walked into a dead end.

"Even I, being so clever, did not foresee the trouble, and you, silly girl, are not clairvoyant, could you really be more capable than your master?" Lin Ziyin deliberately used a light-hearted tone to tease and comfort her.

"Princess." Tears fell again from Qiaoqiao, who almost collapsed when she initially heard that the princess had been taken away by the villains. Returning to the estate, she was constantly blamed and reprimanded by her parents. But now that the princess had returned, she showed no signs of blaming her, which made Qiaoqiao even more upset.
