Chapter 116 Ambition
Ji Linlang pulled Ji Chenshuang out of the ancestral hall, passed through a quiet path full of green trees, and took Ji Chenshuang back to the courtyard where she had been away for a long time.

Ji Chenshuang looked at her small courtyard. Although she had not been there for six years, it was still the same as before.

The ground underfoot was spotless, and the loquats in the garden were still the same. Except for the trunk being a little thicker, the branches and leaves were still pruned to the same length as before.

"Let's see if there are any changes. In the past few years, I have been cleaning it carefully. I look forward to your early return."

Ji Chenshuang smiled and took Ji Linlang's hand, helped her sit on the stone bench next to the stone table, then took away the crutch from her hand, put it aside, and said affectionately: "Aunt Linlang has always been very good to me. , Ashuang always keeps it in mind."

"What are you saying? I'm good to you. I like you. I'm not trying to make you remember. I just hope that you, the younger generation, can live well." Ji Linlang stroked Ji Chenshuang's hand and said softly.

Ji Chenshuang nodded, "I know."

She looked at the crutches beside her and said, "Since my legs and feet are not good, why don't you let me use a wheelchair to push you? Why do you still walk such a long way to see me..."

Ji Linlang smiled and said, "Auntie, it's not like I can't move anymore. I'm just getting old and my legs and feet are weak. Walking more can stretch your muscles and bones, which is better for your body."

Ji Linlang had a kind smile on her old face, and her eyes were always kind when looking at Ji Chenshuang. Ji Chenshuang's parents died early, and no one was willing to adopt her.

Later, Aunt Linlang adopted her into her lap and treated her as if she were her biological child.

At that time, Ji Linlang was still very young, looking like she was in her 20s. Ji Linlang asked Ji Chenshuang to call her grandma.

Ji Chenshuang didn't want to die, she couldn't scream.

At least looking at Ji Linlang's face that was younger than her late parents, she couldn't scream.

Finally, Ji Linlang said helplessly: "If you don't want to be called grandma, then I will lick my face and be a young man, and call me aunt."

After Ji Chenshuang got Aunt Linlang, her fate began to turn around, and even Ji Chenshuang could see this change.

Her status in the Ji family began to rise. Not only that, Ji Linlang did not hide her secrets, and gave all her secret books and cultivation methods to Ji Chenshuang.

You know, the former Ji Linlang was an existence that even the current head of the Ji family could not match.

"It's our Chenshuang who strives for success. We are talented and willing to endure hardships." Ji Linlang listened to Chenshuang detailing the past events bit by bit. She stroked Ji Chenshuang's hair with her skinny knuckles and praised her.

Just like when she was a child, even if she did something wrong, she would not blame herself. She would gently caress her hair with her soft palms and tell her: "We, Chenshuang, have always been good."

"Aunt, I want you to watch me take over the Ji family, can you promise me?" Ji Chenshuang looked at Ji Linlang with a pleading look on her face. Normally her eyes were raised and arrogant, but now they were wide and round. A hint of coquettishness swayed Ji Linlang's clothes,

"Promise, promise, when have I never promised our Xiaoshuang?" Ji Linlang said with a smile.

"Aunt Linlang, you can't keep your word."

Ji Chenshuang had a smile on her face, but there was no smile in her eyes. She knew that life, old age, illness and death were uncontrollable. She only hoped that Aunt Linlang could live longer so that she could spend more time with her.

If she can get the Ji family, then she can also take out the treasure she snatched, the thing that no one is willing to use, to extend Ji Linlang's life.

When the time comes, no one can stop her.

The corners of Ji Chenshuang's mouth raised slightly, at least everything was still under her control now.

"What are you doing here?" Jiang Yu turned around and saw two people following him. He stopped and scolded Ling Lan in a low voice.

Linglan was so frightened that she didn't move and said cowardly: "I, I, I, I am in danger alone."

"Don't follow me again. I won't say it a second time. You are the one who insisted on coming in. After you agree to come in, you will separate and go where you should go." After Jiang Yu finished speaking, she glanced at Song Heqing.

Song Heqing met Jiang Yu's gaze and understood, and the two suddenly disappeared.

Ling Lan stared blankly at the place where Jiang Yu and Song Heqing disappeared. Afterwards, she realized that her face, which was a little red from exhaustion, instantly turned pale.

"Master Jiang... you really abandoned me. I regret it. I knew I wouldn't come." Linglan looked around at her situation, then looked down at the soft soil under her feet. It looked like a vegetable garden.

Otherwise, he will become a flower and just grow here quietly.

No one should have pulled it out.

However, I couldn't help but feel scared when I thought about how long ago, my mother seemed to have been picked from the snow-capped mountains by the Ji family.

Jiang Yu stood in the courtyard and looked at the surrounding environment. The green trees stretched along the path, and the winding paths led to secluded places.

The two of them walked forward along the path.

Faintly hearing someone talking not far away, the two walked over quietly.

The closer he got to the source of the sound, the more familiar the voice sounded to Song Heqing's ears. When his eyes passed through the layer of green leaves and the two people sitting in the middle of the courtyard, he suddenly realized that it was Ji Chenshuang.

No wonder it sounds familiar.

Song Heqing lowered his head to cover his face, but Jiang Yu stopped him: "What are you worried about? Your appearance now is different from before."

Hearing this, Song Heqing suddenly remembered that Master had cast a spell on his appearance, and it was impossible for Ji Chenshuang to recognize his current appearance. Thinking in this way, he no longer worried that his exposure would bring more trouble to Master .

After the two of them talked, Ji Chenshuang stood up and wanted to send Ji Linlang back to her yard, but Ji Linlang refused, "You have been kneeling in the ancestral hall since you came back these few days, and you haven't had a good rest. You don't need to accompany me here." The old woman is running around, but it’s just a few steps away, so I won’t be unable to walk on my own.”

Seeing her persistence, Ji Chenshuang helped her up, took the crutches aside and put it in her hands, "Then be careful and walk slowly."

"Don't worry, my legs and feet are strong."

Ji Chenshuang looked at Ji Linlang's bent back and trembling steps, sighed, and did not return to her room until she could no longer see her back.

Jiang Yu continued walking with Ji Linlang. This person seemed to be a very important person. Maybe she would know what happened that year.

After seeing Ji Linlang walk into the house, Jiang Yu asked Song Heqing to wait for her outside the door. Ji Linlang's cultivation level was higher than that of Song Heqing. Just in case, Jiang Yu chose to follow him to explore the situation.

As soon as he entered the door, he saw an old man sitting on a wooden chair, resting his eyes and looking a little tired. Jiang Yu walked in front of her, blocking the sun, and the shadow cast suddenly made the old man on the seat open his eyes suddenly. .

But she was still a step slower. She was already imprisoned in the seat and could not move at all.

"Who is coming? What is the matter?"

"There is indeed something I need you to answer. If you cooperate, I guarantee that you and Ji Chenshuang will be safe and sound. If you have any intentions..."
