Everyone Wants to Pamper the Lucky Daughter

Chapter 587: Chapter 586: Arrangements Before Going Out to Sea_1
 

“The soup is ready; let’s eat.”

Lin Jinyun looked at his sister adoringly and scooped a heaping spoonful of scallops into her bowl.

“Add some clams too.”

Lin Qingluo held her bowl, smiling so wide that her eyes disappeared.

“Haha, sure.”

Jinyun’s eyes crinkled with laughter as he scooped a spoonful of clams into her bowl.

“Dinner’s ready; time to enjoy our favorite Seafood Lump Soup.”

Shitou got kicked but still didn’t learn his lesson, shrieking as he ran into the kitchen.

His mischievous eyes darted between the soup pot and the bowl in Little Master’s hand, disbelief widening his gaze.

“Hey, hey, hey, that’s not fair, Fourth Brother. There are no clams left. What are we going to eat?”

“Didn’t you have your fill of seafood? You nearly threw up after eating it.”

Lin Jinyun teased and scooped a bit more noodle lumps into his sister’s bowl.

“It’s not the same!”

Shitou’s eyes shifted as he argued forcefully: “This is the taste of Feng Yi’s hometown; we all have to accompany him in reminiscing….”

“Shitou, if you don’t shut up, I’ll shoot you with an arrow!”

Feng Yi brandished his bell and forcefully cut him off.

The jingling sound sent a shiver down Shitou’s spine, and he promptly closed his mouth.

“Hahaha.”

The amusing expression made the Lin siblings laugh.

Lin Qingluo held her bowl, laughter squinting her eyes into slits.

Everyone enjoyed a happy dinner.

After the meal, the group of young men headed to the beach, strolling along the soft sand to help digestion.

Lin Qingluo walked shoulder to shoulder with her two older brothers, discussing the next day’s plans.

“I borrowed a boat from the Old Village Chief. Tomorrow morning, before we set out to sea, Fourth Brother, find an opportunity to secretly give him 100 taels of silver as our rental fee.”

“Alright.”

Lin Jinyun agreed without hesitation.

“We also need to entrust the care of our eight horses to them, and give them some grain. We should prepare at least a three-day supply of horse feed.”

“Leave it to me; I’ll handle it.”

Lin Jinlong chimed in with a smile.

“It looks like we’ll have good weather tomorrow, so let’s set out early. Fourth Brother, you’ll have to get up before dawn to make breakfast.”

“No problem. I’m used to waking up early for martial arts practice.”

Jinyun lovingly looked at his little sister.

“Anything else we need to take care of?”

Jinlong’s eyes were also gentle.

“That’s about it for now.”

Qingluo looked left and right at her two warm-hearted brothers, her eyes beaming with joy.

In the middle of the night, after having fun on the sea, Little Kingfisher flew back and landed on her mistress’s chest, curling up comfortably.

“Yin’er, did you gather any news about Xia Yan?”

Lin Qingluo opened her eyes and looked at the playful pet, fondly rubbing its small head.

“So far, Xia Yan hasn’t made any further moves, and there’s no sign of Beiming sending troops.”

Little Kingfisher was playful, but its intelligence gathering was top-notch; no information slipped past it.

“That’s great. This way, we’ll have time to make it to the border after our sea trip.”

Qingluo’s heart was at ease; her eyes and brows relaxed.

“Master, are you going to the border again?”

Little Kingfisher instantly perked up, its eyes gleaming.

“If Xia Yan really invades with a million-strong army, the battle will be fierce.”

Lin Qingluo’s gaze was somber: “I worry about Second and Third Brother; I won’t feel at ease if I don’t go.”

“If Master wants to go, then let’s go.”

Little Kingfisher was enthusiastic, egging her on: “With me around, Xia Yan shouldn’t even think about stepping into Fengqi’s territory, even with a million or ten million strong army.”

“You always get so excited about going to the border, but you really overinflate your abilities.”
