Su Xinyue pushed open the main room door with trembling hands.
The house was in a mess.
The rice vat was pushed to the ground, leaving only some residue at the bottom.
The clay pot in which the money was kept was smashed open, and it was empty.
The remaining fish from yesterday was naturally gone.
"How could it be...it's all gone...it's all gone..." Feiyan's face turned pale.
Su Xinyue leaned against the door frame, her legs softened and she almost fell to her knees.
She held on to the door frame, tears falling silently.
Leng Qingxue walked into the back room without saying a word, and came out a moment later with an extremely ugly face: "The bedding was also cut."
"It's over..." Shangguan Feiyan collapsed on the ground and murmured, "The food is gone, the money is gone... How will we survive this winter..."
Not long after, Lin Xiao walked into the yard with a bow and arrow on his back. He saw the door of the house wide open, and the three goddesses looked miserable, knowing that something was wrong.
"What's wrong?" He quickly entered the house.
"Uncle Lin..." Su Xinyue turned around and threw herself in front of him, crying so hard, "There was a thief in the house... the food and silver... are all gone..."
Shangguan Feiyan also had red eyes and tried not to cry.
Leng Qingxue stood aside quietly, her lips turning white.
Lin Xiao glanced around the room and his expression darkened.
The strange noise last night was indeed intended to scare them away.
While they were away from home, thieves came in and took away everything they could.
Lin Xiao said in a deep voice: "It's okay, it's just some food and silver. From now on, you move to my place and I will take care of your food."
Su Xinyue raised her head with tears in her eyes: "How can that be done... This will damage your reputation..."
Lin Xiao laughed at himself: "I don't have a good reputation to begin with. I'm an old man and I never care about other people's opinions. These days, fame can't fill my stomach. What do you think?"
Su Xinyue wiped her tears and nodded vigorously: "Thank you, Uncle Lin, for taking me in. We won't live and eat for free, and we will definitely help with the work."
"What? Sister Su, we want... to live with him?" Shangguan Feiyan's tone was full of resistance.
Lin Xiao looked at her: "What, you don't want to?"
"Yeah!" Shangguan Feiyan bit her lip, "I don't want to!"
"I don't want to be lucky." Lin Xiao said in a cold tone, "Open your mouth more and get more rations. Although I promised Lao Liu to take care of you, I also have a temper. If you don't want to, just be self-reliant in the future."
This was said without politeness.
Shangguan Feiyan's face turned pale, her lips trembled, and she was speechless.
