She was suddenly anxious.
She had relied on a bit of self-defense skills to burst over, but the two older brothers only had brute strength.
“Don’t be afraid, brother will help you.” Lin Changshu was terrified, but he did not back down, and neither did Wu Dayou. In his opinion, since he was already engaged to Lin Zige, Ziyin was his sister too.
The assassins were somewhat infuriated. They originally wanted to take advantage of their numbers and the Si Family’s lax defenses to finish the fight quickly and leave. But they absolutely did not expect to encounter heroes to come to the rescue halfway.
Although these three men were not to be feared, the girl’s moves were unpredictable, costing them several of their brothers.
“Looking for death.” Si Jinhan’s face was cold, and he did not show any mercy when he attacked.
“Be careful.” Seeing an assassin charge at the woman and child, Lin Ziyin’s heart tightened, and she dashed over to save them, but it was too late. In her panic, she threw the kitchen knife she had in her hand right at the assassin.
“Ah.” After a terrible scream, the assassin fell to the ground and did not get up. The kitchen knife had pierced his left side.
“Go on.” Si Jinhan saw that Lin Ziyin’s hand was empty, quickly tossing her a weapon the enemy had left behind.
With an agile leap, Lin Ziyin caught the longsword and rejoined the battle.
“Move away.” By that time, an army had showed up.
Seeing the unfavorable situation, the assassins instantly prepared to retreat.
However, Si Jinhan and the arriving soldiers did not give them any chance, directly moving forward and killing them.
“Leave one alive.” Si Jinhan ordered, then left the battlefield.
The remaining assassins listened, stunningly committing suicide with the weapons in their hands.
Lin Ziyin was able to take a breather and rest a bit. She was physically weak, and just a moment of exertion had left her breathless. It seemed that she needed to exercise more in the future.
“Why are you here?” Si Jinhan looked coldly at Lin Ziyin and the others.
Lin Changshu and Wu Dayou were taken aback by his question. They had just saved the Si Family’s people, but now they were being questioned in such a tone by one of them?
“Why does the Si son think we would be here?” Lin Ziyin flared up somewhat. “This road doesn’t seem to be particularly owned by the Si Family, does it? Even if it is owned by you, we aren’t breaking any laws for just passing through, right?”
“Sis, are you alright?” Seeing blood on Lin Ziyin, Lin Changshu could not care less about Si Jinhan’s words, and harnessing her, he began to check her over.
In response to Lin Ziyin’s glare, Si Jinhan looked somewhat embarrassed. That’s true. He had been too suspicious. The Lins were just ordinary villagers who lived here for generations, and he had already found this out when he bought tofu from them. Even if the Lins wanted to please them, they wouldn’t risk their lives for that, and these assassins were not people ordinary villagers could afford.

“You saved us, what do you want?” He asked.
“Fourth Brother, you are too cautious.” A young girl came over, looking at Lin Ziyin with a mixture of curiosity. The young woman also came over with her child to thank them, “Thank you all for your righteous rescue.”
“Just passing by.” Lin Ziyin replied calmly.
“What do you need?” Si Jinhan showed no intention to show gratitude.
“We just happened to be passing by and seeing the child in danger we stepped in, we never thought of getting a reward. However, since Si son has asked, I will not hold back.” Lin Ziyin answered, frowning slightly. She really hadn’t thought of a reward before rescuing them. But seeing Si Jinhan’s expression now, if they don’t request some reward, it seems he would not be happy.
Well, after getting a reward, the two families would then owe nothing to each other.
“Firstly, we currently lack silver, and it seems that Si son is not short of it. Secondly, I want to find someone to forge a set of tools, but the blacksmiths in the city can’t do it. If possible, I would hope that Si son could help.” Lin Ziyin said with a bit of aggression.
“How much silver?” Hearing Lin Ziyin making demands, Si Jinhan breathed a sigh of relief.
“If possible, seven or eight hundred would be best. After all, we did unexpectedly save you guys.” Lin Ziyin said softly.
“What kind of tools do you want to forge? Tomorrow, Si Si will bring the blueprints.” Si Jinhan said. “Give them a note for one thousand and five hundred silver pieces.”
“Yes.” One of the guards responded.
“Let Si Si bring it together tomorrow.” Lin Ziyin said indifferently.
“Are you not afraid the patriarch will go back on his word?” Si Jinhan’s face took on a jesting expression.
“I think the Si Family’s face is worth more than a bit of silver.” Lin Ziyin didn’t even look up, “Brother, let’s buy some buns and find a horse cart to go back.”
“Let’s first find a clinic and take a look.” Lin Changshu looking heartedly at her.
“It’s just a superficial wound.” Lin Ziyin reassured him.
