The young couple from the farm fights back

Chapter 117 The Island Master Wakes Up

Looking at the surprise that flashed across Jiang Li's eyes, the island master curled up the corners of his mouth unconsciously and held Jiang Li's hand a little tighter.

"I know better than anyone that if you hadn't come, my damned adopted granddaughter wouldn't have had such a fate."

Jiang Li's heart was pounding and her thoughts were a little confused. For a moment, she couldn't tell whether the old man was praising her or teasing her.

"It was you who changed her fate, and the fate of my Liu family. In the final analysis, you are the benefactor of my Liu family."

Upon hearing this, Jiang Li quickly stood up from her chair and bowed, "Island Master, your words are too serious. I dare not."

"Get up quickly." The island owner held her hand and helped her up.

When Jiang Li sat down again, she felt very uncomfortable. All her secrets were exposed in front of the old man in front of her.

"I know you must be thinking in your heart, knowing that there are two ungrateful people around you, why don't you get rid of them as soon as possible?" The island owner said this with a helpless smile.

Jiang Li didn't dare to think about anything now, his mind was blank.

"This is the root of evil that I planted with my own hands. It can't be eradicated. That girl is dead, and I have to give an explanation to the island." After saying that, she squeezed Jiang Li's hand again: "As for the one in the dungeon, let's kill him too. Let him die quickly."

Jiang Li could still hear from the island owner's words that she was reluctant to part with Mr. Fang.

Not to mention, there is a huge age gap between the island owner and Mr. Fang, and Mr. Fang's appearance is only barely acceptable.

I think that since ancient times, lovers have always seen beauty in their lovers, and the island owner likes this kind of thing.

However, even after being betrayed by his lover whom he had kept for many years, the island owner still remembered their past friendship and gave him a quick death, which shows that the island owner loved this person deeply.

However, why did the island owner entrust her with his affairs after his death?

When Jiang Li was confused, the island owner took out a token from under the soft pillow and put it in Jiang Li's hand.

No matter how dumb Jiang Li was, he could guess what it meant and couldn't help but feel that this thing was hot.

But the other party did not give her any chance to retreat and held the token firmly in her palm.

"The Crimson Scale Order is the symbol of the ruler of Changsheng Island. Apart from you, no one else is suitable to continue the Liu family. If it were her, I would rather destroy this Crimson Scale Pavilion before I die than hand over the lifeblood of the Liu family. But you are different. I believe in you."

Jiang Li was terrified: "Island Master, how can a humble woman be worthy of your trust?"

"Eh~" The island owner smiled faintly and shook his head, denying Jiang Li's words.

The old woman's spirits were visibly declining, and Jiang Li knew she was holding on. It was her first time being entrusted with such an important task, and Jiang Li couldn't describe the emotions she felt. She felt a mixture of gratitude and reluctance to leave the old woman, but even more of a sense of trepidation and shock.

"Would you be willing to call me Grandmother in her name?"

Ding~

Jiang Li's heart trembled violently, and a layer of heat welled up in his eyes.

She slowly tightened her fingers, clenched the token in her palm, pursed her lips, solemnly stood up, lifted her skirt, and knelt on her knees.

"Granddaughter, greetings to grandmother." This kneeling and kowtow was done on behalf of her original self, Jiang.

The island owner, lying on the couch, smiled with satisfaction, his eyes full of relief.

Jiang Li kowtowed twice in succession as a token of her respect for the old man.

Seeing this, the island owner quickly extended his hand to signal Jiang Li to stand up: "Okay, okay, get up."

"Yes." Jiang Li lifted the hem of his shirt, stood up and bowed again.

"Child!" The island master held Jiang Li's hand and said earnestly, "I entrust Changsheng Island to you. I, the Liu family of Daning, have let down our ancestors. I am a sinner and must go down below to atone for my sins."

Jiang Li held the island owner's hand tightly, which was as dry as tree bark, and wanted to say a few words of comfort, but her throat was choked with sobs.

She also knew that all her words of comfort were nothing more than a few pleasant and pleasing remarks in front of the shrewd old man.

"Their ancestors were famous generals and good ministers of Daning. They promised me to treat me well - cough cough cough -" The island master said, unable to stop the discomfort rising in his chest, and coughed up a mouthful of thick blood.

"Island Master!" Jiang Li was quick-witted and half-lifted the old woman's back, fearing that she would choke on the saliva she coughed up.

The island master paused for a long time, then took the handkerchief Jiang Li had used to wipe the blood from her mouth. His face turned even paler. "I don't have much time left. There's a secret device under this couch, and inside it I have something to tell you."

Jiang Li's eyes were red as she nodded, "Island Master, please stop talking. I'll ask Ming Ye to call all the tribe members here."

The old man is leaving, which is a big deal. The tribesmen on the island should come and see him off.

The island master took a tired breath and said calmly, "No need. I haven't seen those children yet."

Jiang Li knew that the island owner had no heir in his lifetime, and the Daning Liu family's lineage had ceased in her generation, so the old man could only focus on her and the children.

No matter what, the island owner had given Liu a new life and had taken her and her child in.

"Okay, I'll have someone bring the child here."

"Okay, okay." The island owner could not hide her excitement in her eyes, but she was already in a state of being out of breath, as if every breath she took exhausted her strength.

Jiang Li turned around and wiped the moisture from the corners of her eyes, took a deep breath to adjust her mentality, strode out of the bedroom, opened the curtain, and walked out.

The two people from the Mingwu and Mingshi families who were guarding the corridor, as well as Mingye and other guards in the yard, all looked at Jiang Li nervously when they saw him coming out.

When everyone saw the moisture in Jiang Li's eyes and the token clenched in front of her body with both hands, even Ming Ye was shocked, and the guards looked at each other in disbelief.

The Crimson Scale Order, this is the inheritance from the island master!

Could it be that the island master wants to pass the position of island master to an unrelated woman?

Even if Jiang Li saved the people on their island, this kindness was not enough to be thanked with the position of island master. Some people even thought that the island master must have become sick and confused.

Jiang Li tried her best to ignore everyone's complicated looks and gestured to Ming Ye, saying, "Go back to the courtyard and bring all the children home to see their great-grandmother off for the last time."

Boom~

Jiang Li's words instantly made everyone present's brains buzz.

Great-grandmother?

Could it be that the words of the miracle doctor were made up by her?

What great-grandmother? The island owner has no children in his life, so where do his grandchildren and great-grandchildren come from?

Compared with the other guards' inner slander and the disdain and scrutiny on their faces.

Ming Ye, Ming Yang, Ming Wu, Ming Shi and Ming Qing seemed even calmer, not because they had known it for a long time, but because they believed in Jiang Li.

"Yes, ma'am."

The fact that the Crimson Scale Order is in my lady's hands explains everything.

The island owner they followed had been shrewd throughout his life and it was impossible for him to make such a mistake with Changsheng Island and his people at the last moment.

The guards were stunned again when they saw this. Ming Ye was removed from his position by the island owner and later followed the lady doctor. Naturally, he would obey the lady doctor's orders.

But what about Ming Yang and the others?

Jiang Li knew that many things were difficult to convince people at once. What she could do now was to fulfill the old man's wish and let him have no regrets.

"Follow me into the house and help the island master change clothes and put on makeup."

The eyes of the Mingwu family and the Mingshi family were already red, and they nodded in response quickly.
