Chapter 146 Seeking fate and getting fate, destiny is your destiny
During the past five years, Lin Nuan had kept in touch with her family through letters. Among the letters to her mother, there were always letters from her elder and second sisters.
Even if a family is not together, their feelings will grow deeper and deeper.
If Lin Nuan said that she had not suffered much in the past five years, she would be lying with open eyes. However, compared with some poor families she met on the road, it was nothing.
It’s just that during the two years when I gave birth to my child, I was away from home and had no one to rely on, which made me a little sad.
The rest of the time they were on the road, traveling around the beautiful rivers and mountains of the motherland. Even if they sometimes had to sleep in the open air, fortunately Xiao Jingyan was good at surviving in the wild and could always find a place to rest at night. Even if he couldn't find one, he would build one.
After Lin Yao and Lin Wan learned that Lin Nuan had returned, they took their children back to her parents' home. The two brothers-in-law also received the news after returning home from their respective yamen and hurried to the Lin Mansion.
Xiao Jingyan handed over the territorial map that he had spent five years drawing to the emperor. If he said that he had traveled across the entire territory of Daxia and visited all the countries in just five years, that would be a lie, as it would not have been possible even in these two five years.
But Xiao Chen is already over three years old, and he should be given some enlightenment. If he continues to travel all over the world, it will delay the child's development.
Before Lin Nuanhe and Xiao Jingyan came back, they had already made up their mind to put Xiao Chen in the Lin Mansion to be raised. With the guidance of Lin Shuhong and Lin Feng, the child will definitely grow up well.
When Mother Lin heard that Lin Nuan wanted to place Xiao Chenchen in the Lin residence for foster care, she asked anxiously, "Are you still leaving?"
Lin Nuan nodded, "Jing Yan and I have been to many places in the past few years, but there are still many places we haven't been to. After all, it's still a little inconvenient to bring Chen'er with us. We came back this time because Chen'er is old enough to start education, so we sent him back."
Mother Lin disagreed, "Chen'er is only three years old now. He is still so young. How can you bear to abandon him?"
"Even if you don't want to, you have to be willing to leave, mother. The territory map is not yet complete, so Jing Yan and I have to continue our journey. But I promise you that we will return home once every two years at most, and it won't take as long to come back as it did this time."
Lin Nuan touched Xiao Chen's head lovingly. Even though the mother and son didn't have to be separated right away, she felt heartbroken just thinking about it.
Lin's mother wanted to persuade him again but was stopped by Lin's father.
"The children are grown up and have their own things to do. We should not get involved."
After Lin Shuhong and Lin's mother finished speaking, they looked at Lin Nuan again.
"Chen'er is also a child of our Lin family. You can rest assured to leave him at home. I am free at home now, so I can teach him well."
At this time, Lin Feng's wife, Ling Xiaoxiao, also quickly expressed her opinion.
"Aunt, you can rest assured leaving Chen'er at home. He can keep the two naughty kids company. I will definitely treat him as my own child."
While everyone was talking, the eldest sister and the second sister arrived with their children, the eldest brother-in-law, the second brother-in-law, and Xiao Jingyan.
Lin Nuan felt a sense of happiness when she saw the whole family gathered together happily.
The emperor is not so afraid of Xiao Jingyan now. After all, five years have passed. Now under the emperor's governance, the entire Daxia is prosperous. At least most of the people can have enough food to eat, and there have been no natural disasters in recent years. So everyone in the folk says that the current emperor is a wise ruler.
The emperor allowed Xiao Jingyan and Lin Nuan to wait a year until Xiao Chen was older before continuing to draw the territorial map.
Originally, the two thought that it would be good to be able to stay in the imperial city for a month, but unexpectedly, the emperor gave them a year. This way, they could accompany their children for another year, so Lin Nuan was naturally happy.
A year later, Lin Nan and Xiao Jingyan set out again and spent another ten years drawing a map of the territory.
Over the past ten years, they would quietly come back every one or two years, but would only stay for a month at most before setting off again.
The emperor was no longer wary of Xiao Jingyan, and Lin Feng replaced Lin Shuhong as prime minister.
Five years later, Xiao Jingyan went on another expedition and spent ten years conquering more than a dozen surrounding countries, large and small. Xiao Chen also followed in his father's footsteps and became a famous young general.
After returning from a victorious battle, Xiao Jingyan was conferred the title of Marquis of Zhenyuan, and Lin Nuan was also conferred the title of first-rank imperial decree.
More than ten years later, the two went to a temple outside the city together, and the wandering master had also returned.
The two of them knelt down sincerely in the main hall, burned incense and added money. They wanted to go and pay a visit to the master, but were told by his disciple that the master had passed away, but had expected them to come, so he left a letter for them.
After the two of them opened the letter, there were only eight words written on it: Seek for fate and you will get it, it is destiny.
Another ten years passed, and half of Lin Nuan and Xiao Jingyan's hair had turned white. Their father and mother had passed away. The two of them sat under the grape trellis in the Jingyuan Marquis Mansion and fell asleep peacefully in rocking chairs.
When they opened their eyes again, Lin Nuan and Xiao Jingyan had returned to the modern era.
When they both opened their eyes, the playground had opened automatically.
Lin Nuan was slow to get up, so Xiao Jingyan walked over worriedly.
"What's wrong? Are you feeling unwell?"
Lin Nuan shook her head. What she didn't say was that after she fell asleep under the grape trellis, she had a very long dream, which connected all her previous dreams together. However, the amount of information was too much, and she didn't know how to accept it for a moment, so she was stunned.
They spent a lifetime in the game, but only eight hours passed in real life.
Lin Nuan sat up and hadn't said anything yet when her stomach made two embarrassing "gurgling" sounds. She covered her stomach sheepishly and smiled awkwardly.
"I have already booked a restaurant. You have been lying down for eight hours. Take a break and we will set off right away." Zheng Yuan said on the side.
Feeling that he had completed the experience of this game, Zheng Yuan, who did not participate in the game, was more excited than Lin Nuan and Xiao Jingyan who entered the game.
However, as a game developer, being able to witness the success of a game and feel that sense of accomplishment is something you should be happy about.
Lin Nuan was indeed hungry. These eight hours were almost like a nap, except that the dream was a bit long.
The four of them set off together to the restaurant they had booked, and after eating, they went their separate ways.
Lin Nuan and Xiao Jingyan returned to the hotel.
Not only did the two of them get married in the game, they also had children and lived together for decades. Now that they have returned to the real world, they don't feel uncomfortable being alone together.
But after returning to the hotel, the two of them walked to the door of the room, hesitating whether to go back to their own room or go to one of the other's room.
