The young couple from the farm fights back

Jiang Li withdrew his hand, and seeing that the old man was not in a hurry to ask, he tactfully took the initiative to tell the old man about his discomfort.

"Excuse me, Island Master, but I often feel unbearable pain in my shoulders and neck, and it feels like needles pricking my lower back when I move."

The old island owner raised his eyebrows in no surprise. At her age, joint disease is not an uncommon symptom.

But he smiled and nodded, saying, "I have been suffering from this old age disease for many years, but I have not been able to cure it. I don't think I can get rid of this old disease."

Jiang Li lowered her eyes humbly and said calmly, "Indeed, it is. Although it cannot cure the disease, it can alleviate the distress caused by the symptoms. If the island master is willing, I can prescribe acupuncture for you."

The old island master smiled with satisfaction and said, "Okay, then I'll have to trouble the doctor for help."

As soon as the old island master finished speaking, he suddenly reached out and grasped Jiang Li's elbow.

The force was so great that Jiang Li's heart trembled unconsciously. Mo Ming looked up at the old lady in front of him.

However, seeing that the old man didn't seem to have any other intentions, Jiang Li quickly suppressed his suspicions and responded calmly.

After a while, the old island owner withdrew his hand, and his kind face returned: "Indeed, it is correct!"

Jiang Li: ...

Seeing Jiang Li's puzzled look, the old island master suddenly laughed out loud: "Madam Li, you must be curious about how I knew about your future Longevity Island?"

"I heard that the island master has amazing divination skills." Jiang Li did not hide the known facts.

The old island owner nodded happily, turned around and walked towards the soft seat at the top with the help of his crutch. He turned around and sat down with a flick of his wide sleeves. His whole demeanor was undoubtedly revealed at this moment.

Even though the old lady is very old, her majesty and aura cannot be underestimated.

"In the early years, there was a great sorcerer among my ancestors. It was he who passed on his skills to me."

Jiang Li understood, but was not curious.

Seeing her silence, the old island master was somewhat satisfied, and then he said slowly, "So, Madam Li should also know that the people on the island are all from the Lishan area!"

Jiang Li stood respectfully below and replied, "To be honest, Master Island Master, I do know."

"Did Yuan Niang ever tell you the true origins of the Changsheng Island people?"

Jiang Li concealed the doubt in his eyes and said honestly: "No!"

The old island master's mouth curled slightly, and after a moment, he said, "This matter, to outsiders, is a secret of Changsheng Island, unless—"

Upon hearing this, Jiang Li immediately bowed tactfully: "Please rest assured, Island Master. My wife and family are extremely grateful for your acceptance and have no intention of causing any trouble."

Upon hearing this, the old island master waved his hand and said, "That's fine. I have my reasons for speaking to you."

Jiang Li: ...

She felt that the old lady attached too much importance to her arrival.

"My ancestral family, the Liu family, ruled the world a hundred years ago, and our country was called Daning."

Ding~

Jiang Li was slightly stunned. Even though she guessed that the old island owner came from a noble family, she never thought that he was a descendant of the royal family from a hundred years ago.

"Back then, the Tangut rebels proclaimed themselves emperor, and our Daning was already in imminent danger. When the enemy approached the imperial city, only the emperor and his personal guards remained in the palace to resist the enemy. To ensure the continuation of the Liu family's bloodline, the emperor ordered his trusted confidants to secretly send the five-year-old crown prince away from the imperial city."

"With the decline of Daning, the descendants of the Liu family wanted nothing more than to hide their origins and live in peace. Unfortunately, Emperor Qing, who had already ascended to the throne, still refused to let our Liu family go. He secretly sent troops to search for the Liu family's crown prince. Upon learning that the youngest son was hiding in Lishan, he dispatched troops to hunt him down and kill him to eliminate any future trouble."

"As a last resort, our trusted followers once again helped the young master of the Liu family escape robbery and assassination. We later moved to Changsheng Island and lived in seclusion. To prevent outsiders from entering the island, sorcerers set up a maze in the sea. To this day, our Liu family has lived in seclusion here for a hundred years."

"From then on, there was no longer any Daning Liu clan in this world. Only the mysterious island was passed down among the people."

Jiang Li was dazed, especially when the old island master looked at her with a look that became increasingly confusing and complicated.

If she guessed correctly, the crown prince of the previous dynasty should be the father or grandfather of the old island owner, and the position of island owner would be hereditary, so it would be natural for her to fall into her hands.

"Divine Doctor, don't you think Liu looks familiar?"

Jiang Li: ...

There are a lot of people with the surname Liu in the world.

No, wait!

Jiang Li seemed to realize the problem when she saw the way the old lady looked at her.

The original Jiang's mother was also surnamed Liu. Before her death, Liu had revealed her life story to her daughter, saying that when she was seven years old, she was separated from her family on the street, abducted by a beggar, and sold to the Jiang family as a child bride after being passed through several hands.

When Jiang Li thought about this, a wave of melancholy surged into his heart.

Seeing her complex expression, the old island master couldn't help but smile. "When I was young, I was diagnosed with infertility and have never been married. Early in my life, by chance, I adopted an abandoned baby."

Jiang Li: ...

Could she be wrong?

The old island master glanced at Jiang Li, who looked suspicious, and continued, "It was a premature baby girl who was abandoned in a haystack across the sea. I felt a liking for her, so I brought her back to the island to raise her."

Ding~

Jiang Li knew that she had guessed right again.

"I had hoped to devote all my energy to nurturing my daughter, hoping she would take over the management of this Changsheng Island in my place, thus fulfilling the Liu family's regret of having no heir." The island master sighed slowly as he spoke. "Unexpectedly, when she was only seven years old, she went with her clansmen to Yanzhou City for shopping, and unfortunately, she went missing. She has never been seen since."

Jiang Li: ...Okay, it's confirmed!

"Master Island Master, how can you be sure that the adopted daughter you mentioned is my mother?"

The old island master smiled and said, "The genius doctor has forgotten the little skills I have."

"..."

Ok!

Then the question arises again, if the old island owner is so capable, how could he not figure out where his adopted daughter was abducted?

Haven’t you ever thought of sending someone to search for it in these decades?

The old island master could see the doubts in Jiang Li's heart, and the smile on the corner of his mouth was somewhat helpless: "It is fate! The image of divination is the will of heaven."

"Liu was destined for this calamity. I brought her back and changed her fate. After all, fate is difficult to control. You must know that you can bring those who are suffering to a better life, but you cannot bring happiness to those who are dying."

After hearing this, Jiang Li was still confused.

I think what the old island master meant was that Liu was destined to die as a baby. But because of the old island master's kindness, her fate was changed. However, a dying person cannot suppress the blessing bestowed by the old island master. Therefore, Liu's life was destined to end in misery.

Thinking of this, Jiang Li couldn't help but worry about Heng Ge'er.

According to the old island master, Heng'er suffered from depression in his previous life and died a miserable death. In this life, even because of her and Zhou Chunfeng, it is not certain that they can change the child's fate!

do you mean this?

Unexpectedly, the old island master seemed to see through Jiang Li's worries and brought her back to her senses with a low laugh.

"Everything in the world has its destiny. Those who are not doomed have their own destiny. Lady Li, why should you worry too much?"

Jiang Li listened to the ambiguous words of the old island master. It would be a lie to say that she was not worried. Thinking of Heng Ge'er's usual sensible and gentle appearance, as a mother, how could she not feel distressed.

In the past, Jiang Li never believed in fate, but since she came to Changsheng Island, after experiencing all kinds of things and seeing the abilities of the old island master, she had to believe in it.

She had figured it out anyway. She had no secrets in front of the old island master. Even if the old island master didn't say anything, he'd probably figured out that her soul wasn't Jiang's.

Since the old island owner didn't say it out loud, it was considered a tacit secret between them.

"Lady Li!"

Jiang Li, who was lost in thought, came to his senses again and politely said, "Island Master."

The old island master nodded and said, "God has his own reasons for his arrangements. You only need to follow your heart and leave everything to God."

Jiang Li came back from Jianglin Pavilion and was briefly confused after meeting the old island master today.

When she saw the child coming down from the study, Heng Ge'er's childish and innocent appearance, all the thoughts in her heart were immediately swept away.

Jiang Li doesn't believe in fate. Even if it goes against the will of heaven, she must protect her child!
