My whole family time-traveled! I became a god during my exile in a famine.

Chapter 159 Old Xin Kneels...

Who knew that the young lady would drop such a bombshell in public.

Why didn't His Highness the Crown Prince say so earlier? ...Then what's the point of queuing?
A group of people were quite civilized and polite, queuing up all the way to the city gate.

Lieutenant Li originally thought he was just following orders to pick up the young lady and her family, but he ended up taking the Crown Prince and General Chi's family to the governor's mansion as well...

Fortunately, the governor's mansion was large enough, otherwise it might not have been able to accommodate so many people.

Xin Nian and her daughter Chang Mianmian were assigned to live in the same courtyard as several of the Xin family's sisters.

The rooms must have been arranged in advance. It's just that the governor's mansion didn't expect the young lady to bring so many guards and servants with her during her exile…

It was a bit chaotic at first, but the governor's wife was as capable as ever, and she quickly had her servants adjust all the rooms.

Xin Nian's garden was originally prepared for her, and the room she is currently living in is fully equipped with everything she needs.

The aunt originally arranged for the other sisters of the Xin family to live in a separate courtyard next door.

With so many people arriving at once, there wasn't enough space to accommodate everyone. She had no choice but to make Xin Nian share a courtyard with her sisters.

Her aunt held her hand and said, "My poor Niannian. She's suffered so much on the way here, and now she's not even staying well at my place."

Xin Nian found it both funny and absurd.

What's there to pity about her? She's staying in the best room in the whole compound. Compared to trekking thousands of miles and sleeping in the wilderness, this is far better.

There was a built-in bathtub next door, and since Xin Nian hadn't taken a bath in a long time, she went in and had a nice soak.

When she came out, two clever maids brought her dinner, looking apologetic as if they were extremely sorry for her.

"The lady said that our young ladies have been wronged and that the other young ladies can move to another place once the neighboring villa becomes available."

Xin Nian was about to say that she wasn't wronged at all when the two little girls wiped away tears, looking at her with pity, and took the empty plates out...

Xin Nian: ...

She finally understood what kind of treatment Xie Ninglan received in the Xie family.

She's just extending her love to everything connected to the family!
Meanwhile, Xie Ninglan felt rather uneasy.

After she and Lao Xin finished washing up and changed into clean and tidy clothes, they came out and waited for her elder brother, the governor, in the side hall.

The governor is currently talking with His Highness the Crown Prince, General Chi, and others, and hasn't arrived yet.

This made her feel quite uneasy.

Xin Wenyuan gently squeezed the back of her hand. "Why are you panicking? Your older brother is six years older than you and has always treated you kindly. Didn't you hear what your daughter said? You should act happy."

Xie Ninglan's palms were practically sweating...

She lowered her voice, "You make it sound so simple. I don't even know what my older brother looks like. What if he can tell something's wrong with me right away?"

Old Xin clicked his tongue and said in a roguish tone, "Don't you understand? Didn't your daughter say that before?"

He lowered his voice a bit, "If we can wear it, it means we have a soul compatibility of over 90% with the original body. Otherwise, how come it's such a coincidence that no one else can wear it, but we can? Maybe this is our past life as husband and wife."

"So what are you feeling guilty about? We didn't forcibly possess your body and kill your past life, right? This is just the will of Heaven, letting us come here to continue fulfilling the obligations we had in our past lives."

After hearing Old Xin's lies about his past lives, Xie Ninglan finally calmed down a bit.

That's true, it's the will of Heaven that brought them here, not that they insisted on being this way.

She is Xie Ninglan, and Xie Ninglan is her.

Thinking this way, Xie Ninglan inexplicably felt a sense of relief, as if even her soul had been given a strange liberation.

A few footsteps came from outside the hall. Xie Ninglan quickly stood up, adjusted her smile, called out "Big Brother," and went to greet him.

Old Xin's eyelids twitched, and he quickly followed. If he hadn't turned his wife's hand in time, this silly wife would have already grabbed the housekeeper's arm and started fawning over him...

Xie Ninglan also noticed that the middle-aged man who entered was bowing slightly to her.

Old Xin turned her hand and brought it to a tall, stern-faced man.

"Big brother!" Xie Ninglan called out with great singing and acting skills, then grabbed his brother's arm, revealing a swaying, joyful expression.

Xie Ninglan is now somewhat relieved that everyone is wearing blindfolds or something similar, so they can't clearly see what their eyes are saying...

Xie Hui, with a stern face, pulled his sister into the house, and his first words were, "Did this kid bully you again?"

Xie Ninglan was taken aback and quickly shook her head.

Xin Wenyuan also shook his head, "How could I, brother? Xiao Lan is my life, how could I bully her?"

The governor sneered, "Easier said than done."

"You go out first."

"Oh," Xin Wenyuan replied with his head drooping, and slowly backed towards the door.

"I wasn't talking about you!"

Xie Ninglan, who had been sitting obediently in the armchair, quickly got up after hearing her dignified older brother speak, "Then, then I'll go out first."

"Hey, hey wife, wife." Xin Wenyuan called out twice in a low voice. Before leaving, his wife gave him a "you'd better watch yourself" look and carefully slipped out of the side hall.

Xin Wenyuan had a gut feeling that his brother-in-law sending his sister out was definitely not a good thing.

Sure enough, the next second...

He stumbled backward.

No? He's almost at level three, so why was his brother-in-law's kick so powerful?

It sent him flying half a meter backward, and with a "thud," he fell miserably to the ground, kneeling on both knees.

Wow, the martial prowess of the ancients was terrifying!
Xie Hui strode toward Xin Wenyuan with a cold face.

Xin Wenyuan thought his brother-in-law wanted to hit him again, so he quickly raised his hands to protect his head.

Unexpectedly, his brother-in-law didn't strike again. He simply pulled him up from the ground, gave him a cold look, and said, "This is because you caused my sister to suffer so much during your exile."

"Xin Wenyuan, my sister has never suffered like this since she was a child. This is all your fault."

Old Xin just wants to hug his wife and cry his heart out right now.

What does this have to do with him? He didn't give the order to exile, and the problem doesn't lie with him either!
He's just a spoiled brat who only cares about eating, drinking, and having fun; his whole family wasn't exiled because of him.
"Big brother, I was wrong, I really know I was wrong. If you don't believe me, ask Xiao Lan, my husband and I are doing well now."

"Hmph." Xie Hui tossed him onto the stool and sat down beside him with an air of superiority.

"What do you think? If my men hadn't come to report that you've been very good to Lanlan all this way, do you think you'd only get this one kick?"

Xin Wenyuan was filled with mixed feelings of sorrow and joy.

The good thing is that, without needing to prove it himself, his brother-in-law was the first to realize how good he was to his wife.

Sadly, his brother-in-law's kick made him feel nauseous and vomit...

"Brother, do you know who your informant is in the team?"
