Chapter 487: Chapter 485: Let Third Brother Hold You, To Bless You_1
“Alright, Third Brother swears on my life, I will write a letter to Qingluo.”
Lin Jinzhou kept on promising, his eyes shimmering, a touch of gentleness appearing.
“Let’s eat. Jinyun has been working all morning, let’s eat before the food gets cold.”
For some reason, Lin Jinyu felt a sour taste rise, forcibly tugged at his smile, and laughed as he called his siblings to eat.
“Alright, it’s time to eat, I’m starving.”
Wang Meng was the first to respond loudly.
“Let’s eat, the food Fourth Brother cooked is so delicious.”
Shitou quickly followed, livening up the atmosphere.
“I’m hungry too.”
Feng Yi, who had been with them for a year, already had a great rapport with them.
“Brother Yun’s cooking is unbeatable, even Feng Liu can’t compete.”
Lin Jinyang flattered his brother with a smirk on his face.
“If you like it, then eat more.”
Lin Jinyun was very satisfied that his younger brothers were so supportive, intentionally acting as if he didn’t see the redness in his third brother’s eyes.
“Third Brother, have some chicken leg.”
Lin Qingluo gave Lin Jinzhou a big chicken leg, laughing and placing it before him on his plate, “You are what you eat. Since you’re about to embark on a long journey, let this chicken leg provide you strength.”
“Pfft!”
Lin Jinyang laughed so hard that he spewed, unceremoniously spraying a mouthful of chicken soup.
“You stinker, where are you spitting it?”
Lin Jinyun was an unfortunate victim, getting a large area of his clothes wet.
He held back his frustration, considering it was his own younger brother.
The rest of the brothers looked at him with distaste, rolling their eyes.
Lin Qingluo, smiling widely, found Sixth Brother’s embarrassment quite amusing, and it livened up the atmosphere.

“Little Qingluo, come, let Third Brother hold you, to share some luck.”
As the farewell banquet was about to end, Lin Jinzhou, his eyes turning red, turned towards his sister, smiling and opening his arms.
“Third Brother!”
Lin Qingluo’s eyes instantly red, choked up as she threw herself into her brother’s arms.
“Qingluo, don’t forget to write to Third Brother. Out here on the frontier, my biggest worry is you.”
Lin Jinzhou hugged his sister tightly, his eyes brimming with tenderness and affection, “The Empress is targeting you, she won’t give up her intention to harm you, try to avoid it as much as possible.”
“Third Brother won’t be able to accompany you on your travels, take care of yourself. Don’t be stubborn when you face the events like the suffering of the peasant diseases and the need for treatment. If you can help, help. If you can’t, it’s alright.”
“You’re still just an eleven-year-old girl, human energy is limited. Not sleeping for days and nights and overexerting yourself is bad for your health.”
“Hmm, I got it, Third Brother, I won’t do it again.”
Lin Qingluo’s voice choked up, tears swirling in her eyes, but she dared not let them fall.
Third Brother was about to embark on a long journey, she couldn’t cry, she couldn’t bring him bad luck.
She would send him off with a smile.
“Good girl!”
Lin Jinzhou smiled satisfactorily, adoringly ruffled his sister’s hair, and reluctantly let go.

Second Uncle Lin and Lin Jinzhou left Woniu Village overnight without saying goodbye to anyone.
The Lin siblings knew only too well and silently looked on as they left.
Second Aunt Lin was reduced to tears, almost fainting from grief.
Lin Jinyun and Lin Jinyang, the two brothers, stifled their sorrow at the farewell and protected their mother.
With Second Uncle Lin gone, they lost the undercover contact coordinating with Jufeng Trading Company to receive military supplies.
Lin Qingluo thought it through and decided to entrust this important task to her adoptive father, Su Hu.
With Lin Jinyu stationed at Mystic Canyon, there was no more need for the Little Kingfisher to transport supplies.
Once the people from Jufeng Trading Company brought the supplies, Su Hu only needed to make a trip to the canyon and inform him of the location.
As for the issue of buying private salt, there was no need for him to intervene.
The two Shadow Guards, Shadow Three, and Shadow Four, were already handling it quite efficiently, so it was handed over to them.
