Chapter 375: The childhood sweetheart who raised the child of the unfaithful man 12
After Luo Chen became the island master, he accompanied the sad yet happy Shui Ningyu for a few days, and then went out to continue doing great things.
Wei Hongyu and Luo An also successfully completed the tasks assigned by Luo Chen, and they had people all over the world.
After finding the source of information, Luo Chen began to ask Luo An and Wei Hongyu to train some capable people for her.
Although Yi Island has some fame in the martial arts world, it is only because Han Jinrong was a highly skilled martial artist and had a great reputation in the martial arts world back then, so Yi Island has some status.
The servants of the Han family only know some rudimentary martial arts, and cannot compare with the martial arts sects in the world.
It was for this reason that Yi Island was so easily conquered in the previous life.
She needs to prepare early in this life.
Therefore, while training his own personnel, he also revealed the information he had gained in the previous life to the court bit by bit.
This way, you won't appear too powerful, making the court wary, nor will you appear too useless, making people want to give up.
The information received by the male and female protagonists has always been one step behind Luo Chen, so the court has completely ignored those two people.
But the two of them didn't seem to notice and were still trying hard to find all possible clues.
That day, Luo Chen took Luo Wei Hongyu to Linghai County and happened to meet Lin's mother who was returning from her shop. When she saw her, she was very happy and wanted to take her back to sit with her.
Luo Chen glanced at Lin's mother. The material of the clothes was good, but it was obvious that they had been worn for a long time.
During this nearly one year, without the subsidy from Yi Island, Lin's mother ran a small shop and earned only a dozen taels of silver a month.
Lin Yize had almost spent all the money he had saved in the past year.
Lin Yize and Tang Yuyao were so busy looking for clues that they had no time to go out and make money, so they could only use money from home.
Tang Yuyao is a lonely man with no one to give him money, so he can only rely on Lin Yize for support.
Therefore, Lin's mother's savings have almost been used up. When they had money before, the mother and son of the Lin family did not spend money frugally.
Because Lin's mother believed that her son would have endless money after marrying Luo Chen, there was no need to save money, so she only saved a few hundred taels of silver in the past few years.
Now there were only thirty or forty taels of silver left in her hand, so when Lin's mother saw Luo Chen, she was extremely happy.
I saw Luo Chen again, wearing all jewels and precious stones. She was becoming more and more beautiful. At first glance, she was much better than that wild girl Tang Yuyao.
"Luo Luo, I haven't seen you for such a long time. I miss you very much. How is your mother?" Mother Lin happily grabbed Luo Chen's hand.
Luo Chen frowned slightly, smiled and said: "Aunt, long time no see, my mother is doing very well.
Now that I am in charge of Yi Island, my mother has nothing to do every day, so I found a drama troupe for her to perform operas for her every day.
I also collected a lot of picture books from outside and asked storytellers to tell them to her.”
Wei Hongyu smiled and said immediately, "That's right, since my island owner took over the business on the island, he has brought back a lot of silks, satins, and jewelry for his wife.
They are all fashionable items from the Jewelry Pavilion in the capital, and even the ladies and princesses in the palace go there to buy them.”
Mother Lin's face looked a little ugly. If it were in the past, she would definitely have a share of these good things.
Luo Chen had tried his best to please Lin's mother for Lin Yize, but now, even the successor to the island master that day did not send them an invitation.
"Really? I'm relieved that your mother is doing well. Come, go home and sit with your aunt. I'll make you something delicious." Mother Lin enthusiastically took Luo Chen home.
She declined at first, but still followed them. She wanted to see what the mother and son wanted to do. She knew that Lin Yize had returned with Tang Yuyao.
As soon as I entered the door, I saw Tang Yuyao sweeping the yard and Lin Yize chopping firewood. The previous maid and the cook were gone.
"Ze'er, come here quickly, look who's here." Mother Lin called out to Lin Yize.
Lin Yize looked at Luo Chen, a little dazed. It was the first time he saw Luo Chen dressed like a lady from a wealthy family.
In the past, she always dressed simply and capablely like a woman of the underworld, even though she was pretty.
But it was totally different from the careful dressing up she has now, so I was stunned for a moment.
Tang Yuyao was also stunned. She used to be confident that she could compete with Luo Chen, but now she is so different in both her dress and temperament.
She felt somewhat ashamed in front of Luo Chen.
"Luoluo."
Luo Chen looked at him unkindly and said, "Young Master Lin, please call me Island Master Han from now on."
Lin Yize paused, then slowly clasped his fists and bowed to Luo Chen: "Island Master Han, long time no see."
Mother Lin looked at her son and wanted to slap him. It was such a good opportunity to strengthen their relationship, but why was her son so rude?
"Hey, you grew up together, why are you so distant? Just call you the same as before." Lin's mother quickly winked at her son.
Lin Yize opened his mouth but still didn't say anything.
Mother Lin rolled her eyes at him and said with a smile, "Come, you two sit down and reminisce about the past. It's been such a long time since we last met, and your brother Yi Ze still often mentions you to me.
You guys chat, auntie will make you something delicious."
Tang Yuyao felt very sad when watching this scene. When she came, Aunt Lin was just indifferent and didn't express anything.
The meals she cooked were all the ones that Yi Ze liked, and she never asked her what she wanted to eat.
Since Han Luochen died, Aunt Lin has been as happy as a flower and even made delicious food for her. Brother Yize's eyes have always been on her and he hasn't even looked at her.
Just as she was immersed in her own thoughts, Lin's mother suddenly called her: "Miss Yuyao, can you come into the kitchen and help me?"
Tang Yuyao was suddenly delighted. This was the first time in the past few days that Lin's mother smiled at her. Did this mean that she actually approved of her?
Yes, when guests come to visit, the head of the family greets them, and the mother and her daughter-in-law cook to entertain them.
She could only deceive herself like this.
As soon as she entered the kitchen, Tang Yuyao immediately carried the firewood to the stove and said excitedly, "Aunt, you don't have to do it, just tell me what to do."
Mother Lin looked at Tang Yuyao calmly and said, "Miss Tang, you don't have to be so polite. You are a guest, how can I let you do the work?"
Tang Yuyao's face froze instantly, and he had a bad feeling in his heart.
"Aunt, you are too polite. I am the younger generation and it is my duty to work."
Mother Lin smiled and said, "That's true, but you are not a junior of my family, so you shouldn't work in my house."
Tang Yuyao understood, with tears in her eyes, she stood up and looked at Lin's mother.
He asked, "Aunt, how am I inferior to Han Luochen?
Why is she so cold to you? You like her so much and are trying so hard to bring her and Brother Yi Ze together?"
Mother Lin looked her up and down and asked, "What do you think?"
