Before the end of Chapter 303—Lin Luoxi became the village's god of wealth.
The scene that the old princess caused on Youyuan Street today was probably witnessed by other interested people.
Even if they don't want to acknowledge the marriage with the Prince's Mansion, once the news gets back to the capital, they will still face various dangers.
They need to become strong enough to make others wary of them.
After Fang Zhixia returned to Qingshui County with Lin Luoxi and the others, she learned that the Lin family had some important matters to attend to, so she said goodbye to the Lin family and went home.
Meanwhile, Xiao Jingchen and the others, who were still at the town mayor's mansion, were unaware that Lin Luoxi and the others had already returned to Wutong Village and were waiting for the Lin family's chef to prepare dinner.
As a result, when the moon rose above the willow tree, the Lin family still did not appear. After sending someone out to inquire, they learned about the connection between the Lin family and the Prince's Mansion.
After a moment's thought, Xiao Jingchen told Ji Feng and the others to pack their things and return to the capital.
After years of turmoil in the court, it's time for things to calm down, or the Crimson Flame Dynasty will cease to exist.
Lin Luoxi was unaware that while they were worried about the dangers of their current relationship with the Prince's Mansion, someone was already bearing the burden for them.
Behind Lin Luoxi's group was a low-key yet luxurious carriage, following at a distance.
"Oh, Luo Xi, you're back!" As soon as she rode her horse to the entrance of Wutong Village, she was spotted by the sharp-eyed villagers, who all swarmed around her, asking her how she was doing.
"Luo Xi has grown taller and prettier, but she's lost weight." The villagers of Wutong Village missed Lin Luo Xi very much after not seeing her for a year.
"That's right, Luo Xi, don't leave again this time..." Now, thanks to Lin Luo Xi, Wutong Village no longer suffers from hunger and cold like before.
In their eyes, Lin Luoxi was like a little god of wealth, not only able to make money but also extremely capable.
When they learned that Lin Luoxi had developed Heiyan Town into a prosperous place, they also hoped that Lin Luoxi could develop her hometown, Wutong Village, so that they could live a better life.
"Well, uncles and elders, I won't be going out for a while..." Lin Luoxi replied with a smile in response to the villagers' enthusiasm.
Behind the enthusiasm, Lin Luoxi could guess the original intention, but she felt it was understandable.
"Ah Yun, look, my son seems to be very popular here." In the carriage not far at the back of the procession, the curtain was lifted, revealing the faces of the old princess and Ah Yun's nanny, who kept looking in this direction.
"Yes, it seems the young master and his family are living well here." Granny A-Yun nodded happily.
Although this place is a bit remote, the villagers are very hospitable. Seeing that Lin Dayou and his group are well-liked by the villagers makes them feel more at ease.
“Things are good now, but before, our family didn’t have it easy…” Hearing the conversation between the two old people, Lin Luoning, who was riding a horse, couldn’t help but slow down her horse and slowly approach, her face full of disapproval.
The reason these villagers were so enthusiastic towards the older sister was simply because she was now very capable; these villagers all wanted to make money off her.
If her sister were still the same dull-witted person she used to be, these people would stay as far away from their family as possible, for fear that their family would come to their door to borrow money or grain.
So people are very pragmatic; they will only fawn over and flatter others when they are of value to them.
"Oh? What do you mean?" Hearing Lin Luoning's words and seeing her furrowed brows, the two elderly people couldn't help but ask her.
“Our family used to be…” Lin Luoning’s little mouth began to ramble on and on to the old princess and Granny Ayun about their family’s past situation.
When the old princess heard that Lin Dayou was treated like a slave by the Lin family, and how Lin Wentao was beaten to the point of being a living dead by the Lin family, her eyes, which were already swollen like walnuts from crying, started to shed tears again.
Granny A-Yun had been guessing that Lin Da-You was living a poor life, but she never expected that their young master was living such a miserable life in this small village. Tears streamed down her face.
As Lin Luoning spoke, she saw the two grandmothers in front of her crying so sadly, blinked her eyes, felt a little guilty, and didn't continue.
The reason I came to tell these two elderly people about Lin Dayou's experiences was to make them feel guilty towards the Lin family and towards her father...
But seeing the two elderly people crying so sadly, she felt she had gone too far, so she simply kept quiet.
She dared not go any further, fearing that Lin Dayou and the others would blame her for being talkative. In the end, looking like she had done something wrong, she sat motionless on her horse.
"Little girl, why aren't you saying anything?" The old princess and Granny A-Yun had been crying for a while, and when they noticed that Lin Luoning was silent, they urged her to tell more about Lin Dayou's experiences.
“Grandmas, you don’t need me to tell you. If you want to know what my father went through and what kind of life our family lived, just ask anyone in the village.”
Lin Luoning left those words behind and spurred her horse forward.
If she doesn't run away soon, she'll make a lot of mistakes, and if Lin Luoxi finds out, she'll be punished by her sister.
"Ah Yun, what that child said is also right. Wait a moment, go downstairs and find someone to ask him clearly."
The old princess was extremely distressed and wished she could drag out the Lin family that Lin Luoning had mentioned and whip them to death to vent her hatred.
"Your Highness, I'll go right away." Granny A-Yun happened to see a couple not far away, so she immediately got off the carriage and walked towards the elderly couple.
Whether it was because Granny Yun was lucky or not, the old couple she thought they were actually Old Man Lin and his wife.
Now the whole village has become rich, but their family is still the same as before, with three dilapidated thatched houses.
That heartless bastard Lin Dayou not only doesn't give them money, but he also refuses to let them go to work and earn money.
Every day, the aroma of pork cooked by the neighbors makes them incredibly hungry.
They had originally planned to come out for some fresh air today, but seeing Lin Dayou's family being surrounded by the whole village as they walked forward made the elderly couple feel uneasy.
Just as he was about to rush up and yell at Lin Dayou's family, someone called out to him.
"Brother and sister, what are those people doing?" Granny A-Yun asked Old Man Lin, pretending not to know.
"Oh, those people up ahead! They're the village bully, and those villagers are all his henchmen..." Old Man Lin saw that Granny Yun was a stranger and dressed in a very classy manner, so he deliberately smeared Old Man Lin in front of Granny Yun.
"Ah, they're bullies, they don't look like it!" When Granny A-Yun heard the old man deliberately distorting the facts, she looked at Lin Da-You and the others in the distance, and then at the couple in front of her. Suddenly, Lin Luo-Ning's words flashed through her mind.
Looking at the sinister and cunning face before her, Granny Ayun guessed the other party's identity and asked again tentatively.
"How could it not look like him? Look at that man riding that tall horse, he's a heartless bastard, his parents raised him with such good food and drink..."
