Spring River Chasing the Moon

Chapter 17 Unexpected Discovery

After lunch, Luo Zhong prepared to take Luo Youyou to Haixin Park, which she had been longing for.

"Yes, you should get ready quickly. We are going to the park to play."

Luo Zhong was in the restaurant and saw Luo Youyou accompanying Li Muzhi and Chen Lili in the yard.

Luo Youyou almost forgot about this matter. In fact, she just said it casually in the morning. She just wanted to let her father know subtly that Yang Qian said one thing to his face and another behind his back.

In her previous life, she had been to Haixin Park many times after she grew up.

However, after her rebirth, she had indeed never been to the streets of the town. Twenty years ago now, she had no impression of it in her memory.

Thinking that maybe he would go to Nancheng in the future and might never have the chance to come back to this small town, Luo Youyou ran to Luo Zhong, staring at him with his big eyes blinking, still with some anticipation.

"Dad, are we going now?"

Luo Zhong patted her little head and said, "Well, why don't you bring some snacks or a few apples with you? Let's go sit in the park. The weather is great today and there will be many children there to play with."

After saying that, Luo Zhong looked at Li Muzhi and said, "Mom, do you and Dad want to come with us? Let's take a walk together."

Li Muzhi looked at Chen Ze who was still in the studio and shook his head. "No, you and your family go. The old man won't leave until he finishes his painting. I'll keep him company."

After saying that, he patted Chen Lili's hand and said, "Go ahead, take them out and have some fun. You guys are busy with work and rarely have time to spend with the kids. Your dad and I won't disturb you three. Let's go buy some delicious food and fun things."

Chen Lili smiled and nodded, went into the room and changed into sports-style clothes, and also changed clothes for Luo Youyou. She dressed up beautifully, like a doll.

Luo Youyou held Luo Zhong's hand in one hand and Chen Lili's hand in the other and walked out of the house. This was a warm moment that she had not felt for a long time.

In fact, if it weren’t for Yang Qian, their family wouldn’t have had such a hard time.

As a teacher, Chen Lili has a stable job in today's world, and Luo Zhong also has an allowance in the army.

But whenever something happened at home, Yang Qian would ask Luo Zhong to contribute money and effort. Their family's finances depended on Chen Lili's remaining salary.

Yang Qian also deceived Luo Zhong, saying that Luo Youyou's aunt and uncle also contributed to the payment.

But in fact, there was no such thing at all. Luo Zhong didn't know it. He always thought that although his mother was partial to him, she treated the three siblings equally in terms of money.

What’s scary is that even Luo Youyou’s grandfather Luo Jiasheng doesn’t quite understand these things.

In 1997, Luo Jiasheng was still at home due to injury and only knew how to concentrate on his work.

When it comes to family matters, he is just a confused old man. He only knows to give his money to Yang Qian for safekeeping, thinking that his wife can take care of the family in an orderly manner.

Luo Youyou's aunt and uncle knew all this, but they felt at ease.

Especially my uncle's family, they are very selfish.

Luo Youyou's aunt didn't dare to give money to her parents' home because her uncle was in charge of the finances and had a bad temper. She could only say that she did her best.

But my uncle Luo Tian and my aunt Meng Ru were completely greedy and only cared about enjoying themselves comfortably.

Actually, their jobs are not bad. They work as salesmen in a newly opened shopping mall.

I’m not going to say how rich they are, but compared to most people, their monthly income is not low, yet they are still greedy.

If you need money here today or need something there tomorrow, just find Yang Qian immediately.

Because they knew that as long as they found Yang Qian, all their requests would be met because Yang Qian would ask Luo Youyou's father, Luo Zhong, to handle it.

In their previous life, their family did not understand and thought that blood ties were hard to break. No matter how bad Yang Qian was, she was still Luo Zhong's mother and Luo Youyou's grandmother, so their family always wanted to suffer a little loss in exchange for the happiness of the whole family.

Of course they are dissatisfied, but they also have expectations. Will Yang Qian give some of her favor to their family one day?

At this moment, Luo Youyou raised his head and looked at his parents. They were happy today, with smiles on their faces.

A chill flashed through her heart.

"Yang Qian, you have done so many wrong things. You will have to pay the price for your mistakes in this life."

Walking and stopping along the way, Luo Youyou looked at the present twenty years ago and still found many things he was curious about.

In her previous life, even if she had been brought to the town, her memory of that time was already very vague, and she had almost no impression of the streets.

Now that Luo Youyou has the memory of an adult, everything she sees is new to her.

The roads are not as wide now, and there are not as many cars as everywhere. There are more people walking and riding bicycles on the streets.

No one was looking down at their cell phones. Men and women were walking down the street carrying their own handbags, or they were in a hurry, looking at their watches and walking in a hurry.

Most of the shops along the road have handwritten price tags, such as "Direct sale special price 59 yuan... Bed cover 38 yuan..."

Luo Youyou discovered that the clothes people wear nowadays are actually very nice and trendy, which is probably the retro style of many years later.

After a while, we arrived at Haixin Park.

Today is the weekend, and the weather is nice, so many parents are already playing with their children in the park. Some are playing hide-and-seek, and some are flying kites...

When Luo Youyou was admiring the scenery, she suddenly saw a familiar figure with her sharp eyes. It was her uncle Luo Tian.

It wasn't a strange thing to meet Luo Tian here.

But Luo Youyou remembered that before her rebirth, Yang Qian told their family that her uncle would be staying in Sicheng for the next half month because the shopping mall intended to promote him to the head of the sales department, so they sent him to Sicheng in advance to study for half a month.

Yang Qian also tried her best to persuade Luo Zhong, "Ah Zhong, if your brother succeeds in getting promoted this time, our family will live a better life in the future, and your brother will also think about you, right?"

"This time, your brother is going to Sicheng not only to study, but most importantly, he is going to meet some important figures in their business world. We can't let your brother lose face."

"How about this, take out some money to buy your eldest brother some new clothes and shoes, and keep some money with you, so that if you need to treat him to a meal, your eldest brother won't be too passive..."

In this way, relying on Yang Qian's eloquence, Luo Tian took another sum of money from Luo Youyou's family, but it has only been a few days in half a month, so how come his uncle appeared here.

Luo Zhong had just entered the house yesterday when Yang Qian came to him and said that Luo Tian might have to stay for a few more days before returning and wanted him to give her some more money. Luo Zhong refused because of Luo Youyou's matter.

"How come the person who was supposed to postpone his return home yesterday suddenly showed up today?" Luo Youyou looked at his uncle looking around as if he was looking for someone, and felt that he should not have come alone.

Then he tugged at the hand Luo Zhong was holding and said, "Mom and Dad, I want to go over there and play for a while."

There is a pool opposite, and the angle there is just enough to see Luo Tian. There are many people around the pool, so you can hide yourself.

Luo Zhong followed the direction of Luo Youyou's finger and saw a large pond on the other side of the park with small fish in it. There was a half-high guardrail around the pond. Many children were lying there watching the small goldfish swimming around, and their parents were sitting on the bench next to them to rest.

There are guardrails, and Luo Youyou is safe at his current height.

"Okay, let's go over there and take a look." Luo Zhong picked up Luo Youyou and walked over holding his wife's hand.

After the family of three found a place to rest by the pool, Luo Youyou took advantage of Luo Zhong and Chen Lili's inattention and carefully observed Luo Tian opposite him.

At this time, Luo Zhong thought that Luo Youyou was attracted by the pool, and did not pay special attention to her gaze. He just leaned on the chair next to him and enjoyed this hard-earned weekend time with Chen Lili.

On this side, Luo Youyou's uncle had already waited for the person he was waiting for, who turned out to be a strange woman.

The woman was wearing a light red dress, a jacket of the same color, high heels, heavy makeup, and her curly hair was twisting and turning. She came up and hugged Luo Tian.

However, Luo Tian was alert. After hugging her for a few seconds, he immediately stood apart from the woman.

The woman was probably not very happy, and she was a little grumpy while carrying her bag. Luo Tian immediately went to comfort her. He didn't know what he said in her ear, but the woman's expression instantly brightened. She raised her hand and patted Luo Tian's chest a few times, then took his hand and walked towards the east side of the park.

Luo Youyou thought for a while and realized that the east gate of the park had not been developed yet and there was nothing to do there.

There is only one high-end hotel that has just opened. Although it is relatively secluded, it has convenient transportation, beautiful environment, and is close to everything. Therefore, it attracted a lot of people as soon as it opened, especially the couples' restaurant, which requires reservations seven days in advance. The chocolate cake from the Western kitchen there is also very popular.

When Luo Youyou saw the children in the same village having that chocolate cake, she was so envious.

Luo Youyou's uncle had been a salesman in the mall for many years, so he had some business connections. This time, he might have gotten the hotel manager to prepare a "so-called surprise" for his lover.

Unexpectedly, this trip brought an unexpected gain. In the previous life, although Luo Youyou knew that his uncle had always been a playboy, he had never been caught by his aunt for cheating, and there was no fuss at home, so they all thought it was just some casual behavior and their family could not do anything about it.

Now it doesn’t look simple, and it doesn’t seem like the first time.

Otherwise, he wouldn't be in the town park so openly, not afraid of meeting anyone he knew.

Luo Youyou didn't know whether her aunt already knew about this, but looking at what happened in her previous life, she judged that her aunt had probably turned a blind eye to this matter.

Luo Youyou saw a family of three eating exquisite chocolate cake next to her. The familiar packaging was from that hotel. Luo Youyou suddenly had an idea.
