After you sever ties, it's no use crying and regretting it.

Chapter 116 Don't hold back

After checking on her family, Lü Xinyan gave Peng Yiyun some biscuits and dried meat, as well as a water bag full of water, before returning to her family.

This sudden intervention, using the life-saving grace to exchange for the indenture of Peng Yucheng's family, left Lü Daquan and the others somewhat puzzled, but they never questioned Lü Xinyan's intentions.

After learning about Lü Xinyan's abilities and interpersonal skills, Lü Daquan and the others gave Lü Xinyan the utmost respect and did not interfere with the decisions she made.

After all, they are no match for Lü Xinyan in terms of skills, methods, knowledge, and experience. They cannot reach Lü Xinyan's level for the time being, and rashly interfering might ruin Lü Xinyan's plans.

Of course, Lü Xinyan used her own pills and relied on her own abilities to solve the problem. They didn't help much. On the contrary, they have received help and protection from Lü Xinyan so far. They would not hold Lü Xinyan back under such circumstances.

On this point, Lü Daquan and the others were in complete agreement and supported Lü Xinyan in this way.

However, at the same time, they also felt a sense of crisis.

Lu Xinyan has returned. They originally wanted to give Lu Xinyan better help and support, but their current capabilities and methods are simply not enough to do so. Instead, they need Lu Xinyan to help and protect them.

Such a disparity was quite significant, leaving Lü Daquan and Lü Muren feeling very uneasy. They secretly resolved to work hard in the future and improve their own abilities so that they could be of help when needed, instead of always being the ones in need of assistance.

Lu Xinyan is so outstanding; they all need to improve themselves to avoid falling behind and becoming a burden.

As for that family, since Lü Xinyan wanted to buy them and was willing to pay a considerable price, they didn't know the specific details, but they believed that Lü Xinyan must have some plan and reason for doing so.

Although Peng Yiyun seemed to have some ulterior motives, the family didn't appear to be vicious criminals. Lü Xinyan accepted their indenture and kept them by her side, which they all supported.

They will help keep an eye on Peng Yiyun's family to ensure Lü Xinyan's safety.

They themselves are not quite capable enough, but they will still try their best to protect Lü Xinyan.

Seeing her daughter Lü Xinyan return, Xie Shulan handed her the water pouch and asked gently, "Yanbao, has everything been taken care of over there? Do you need our help?"

Hsieh Shu-lan wasn't worried that Lü Hsin-yen would do anything reckless, but she was worried that Lü Hsin-yen was overworked or might be deceived by others.

Especially among the refugees fleeing famine, many were forced by circumstances to resort to such desperate measures to survive, and did not genuinely want to sell themselves into slavery. Once the famine was over and they had survived, those people would easily regret their decisions, and then the situation would become difficult to handle.

The point of selling oneself into slavery is to ensure that these people truly keep their promises and respect the facts, rather than harboring resentment and doing something bad afterward.

Xie Shulan became even more worried after seeing that Peng Yiyun was not an honest person and seemed to be trying to renege on his promise at this point.

With more experiences, Hsieh Shu-lan became increasingly pragmatic.

Therefore, Xie Shulan was not very willing to help those disaster victims in this way, even though they still had a way to survive.

They didn't understand each other, and on this journey of fleeing famine, there was a lack of better constraints. If those people went back on their word or even did something before the indenture was registered with the government, they would suffer the consequences.

There are quite a few problems. Hsieh Shu-lan doesn't trust Peng Yi-yun's family, and she doesn't want her daughter, Lü Hsin-yen, to get into any trouble because of her good intentions.

However, Xie Shulan knew that her daughter, Lü Xinyan, was a capable person who thought things through carefully and would not act without reason at this time.

Because she trusted her daughter Lü Xinyan, Xie Shulan did not rush to comment on the matter or criticize Lü Xinyan's actions at this time. Instead, she would provide support and assistance when needed and try her best to protect Lü Xinyan's safety.

These are the things she, as a mother, could do.

Because she doesn't fully understand her daughter, Lü Xinyan, Xie Shulan needs to carefully consider her words and actions to avoid making her daughter uncomfortable.

They have already lost far too much money on their daughter, Lü Xinyan, and Xie Shulan only hopes to make up for it properly, rather than adding to Lü Xinyan's burden.

Upon hearing her mother Xie Shulan's words, Lü Xinyan shook her head and replied with a slight smile, "Mother, don't worry, they have already given me the indenture."

“They are all trained fighters. Once they recover, they can provide us with better protection along the way.”

"So, I treated them first and gave them the pills, hoping to save their lives and gain such powerful protection so that our journey would be easier."

After a pause, Lü Xinyan continued, "Mother, I know their family and have some understanding of them, so when I ran into them this time, I just helped them out."

"As you all heard, they are willing to sell themselves into slavery to ask for help. I will respect their decision and do my best to treat them and ensure that they can live."

“They are all people who keep their promises. Since they have already agreed and given me the indenture, they will have no room to go back on their word.”

"Father, Mother, don't worry. I only did this because I was confident. There won't be any dangerous problems."

Knowing her parents' concerns, Lü Xinyan offered further explanations to reassure them.

Once Peng Yucheng and Cao Cuizhen regain their senses, it will be much more effective to have an adult step in to resolve these issues.

The pills that Lü Xinyan gave to Peng Yiyun all had miraculous effects, enough to help Peng Yucheng and Cao Cuizhen recover their senses as soon as possible and have the energy to deal with this matter of the indenture.

Once these issues are resolved and Peng Yucheng and Cao Cuizhen approve, Peng Yiyun will have no choice but to obey.

Even if Peng Yiyun left a condition for redemption in the contract of sale, it wouldn't be a big problem; it could all be resolved amicably.

Lü Xinyan was quite confident about these things.
