Sweet Wife Is Busy Farming - Chapter 78 - Must Get off the Carriage

The carriage stopped and the coachman jumped off. Ding Yao remembered what the note said and wanted to jump off as well. Lin Qiang quickly stopped her. “You can’t help much as a child. Just wait in the carriage and don’t cause any trouble.”

Ding Yao looked at Lin Qiang and said, “Uncle… Aunt… I am an adult. I can help… Leaving me alone in the carriage… It’s boring.” She then nimbly jumped off the carriage.

There was another carriage on the other side of the road. There were quite a number of people, at least enough to remove the rocks blocking the road. Xu Zhizhi saw Ding Yao walk past the rocks and followed behind her. This spot was indeed naturally dangerous. The road ahead was very narrow, and there was a sharp curve. She was so scared that her heart was pounding. It was better to walk it than to ride in the carriage.

Lin Qiang’s expression was a little ugly. They had planned for the carriage to lose control and fall off the cliff when it travelled the sharp curve. He and the coachman were supposed to jump off the carriage to save their lives and then go to the bottom of the cliff to save the others. If Ding Yao didn’t die from the accident, they would kill her. If Wen Jiang and Xu Zhizhi didn’t die, they would be rescued to testify that it was an accident. But now, their plan had failed yet again.

Lin Qiang sometimes didn’t understand the eldest young master, Lin Hu. Since he wanted Ding Yao dead, there were so many methods, why did they have to manufacture an accident? When he took the assignment, he thought that it would be very easy. But he had failed three times now. It was obvious that the rocks were placed on the road deliberately. He didn’t know if Ding Yao had someone helping her from behind the scenes. After passing this stretch of the mountain road, they would arrive at the outskirts of the capital. If Lin Hu didn’t have any other instructions, he could only bring Ding Yao back to the Lin residence.

!!

Forget it. Lin Qiang didn’t want to think about it anymore. He would just wait for Lin Hu’s instructions; he had no choice. After all the rocks had been removed from the road, the carriage continued forward. Very soon, they had exited the mountain road. Ding Yao knew that there were people guarding the front and back, so she wasn’t very worried; she even took a nap.

Lin Qiang looked at the sleeping Ding Yao and felt so angry that his heart hurt. If he couldn’t complete the assignment, he wouldn’t get the rest of his money. Night had fallen when they reached the outskirts of the capital. Lin Qiang said they wouldn’t stop and would enter the capital. At this moment, he saw two groups of people fighting with knifes and swords on the road in front of them.

Their carriage was forced to stop, but the fighting groups came close to their carriage and in the chaos, their two horses were hacked to death. The coachman was so scared that he abandoned the carriage and ran away. The fighting groups used the carriage as cover, and as they went back and forth, their knives and swords hacked at the carriage.

Lin Qiang took an iron rod, opened the carriage door, and said anxiously, “Quick, quick, quick, get out quickly. Don’t let them hurt you by accident.” Ding Yao was the first to come out. She stuck her head out and looked outside. Lin Qiang was secretly happy. If Ding Yao was the first to get off the carriage, he could guarantee that she would be hacked to death by accident!

However, Lin Qiang didn’t expect that Ding Yao would splash powder medicine out with a wave of her hand. The powder medicine scattered. The men who were waiting to kill Ding Yao covered their eyes and wailed. Ding Yao took the opportunity to jump off the carriage; Wen Jiang and Xu Zhizhi immediately followed suit. Xu Zhizhi was so scared that her face turned pale. She hugged Wen Jiang’s arm tightly the whole time, not daring to look outside.

Lin Qiang shielded them with a dark face. However, he was only protecting Wen Jiang and Xu Zhizhi and left a big hole for the killers to get Ding Yao. He thought to himself, “Quick, go up and hack her to death.”

Meanwhile, two horses rushed over, and two whips cracked at the same time. The men who were there to kill Ding Yao fell under the whip one by one, screaming.

The people riding the horses jumped off their horses. One of them looked at Ding Yao in surprise and asked, “Miss Ding Yao, why are you here?” It was Long Liu.

Ding Yao knew that Long Liu was pretending, so she replied in surprise, “Brother Long Liu… Why are you here?”

Long San scolded the men as he whipped them, “Who are you? Why are you fighting here?”

Lin Qiang’s face was as dark as a dead person in a coffin. He recognized the voice. These two men were the ones who had ruined their plans along the way! This time, their plan was going to fail again. Lin Qiang thought that at most, he would just say he failed the assignment and get scolded by the eldest young master, Lin Hu. Who would have thought that Long Liu, who was teaching those men a lesson, would suddenly turn around and attack him? He subconsciously defended himself. The two of them struggled, and a dagger fell to the ground with a clang. Lin Qiang was then subdued.
