Chapter 295 An old friend is here! She is also a friend, right?
Doctor Li said, looking at the shopkeeper,
"Please prepare the carriage, boss. I will go change my clothes first."
The shopkeeper called the servant from the clinic and told him to prepare the carriage. The servant took the order and started to prepare.
The group changed to a carriage and went through a special passage to the dock, where a huge ship was parked.
Lin Wan had never seen such a large ship and was so shocked that he was speechless.
"Mrs. Lin, Miss Lin, please get on board."
Doctor Li made a gesture of invitation.
To get on the boat, one needs to use the ladder. Pei Jing followed behind her, protecting her carefully, fearing that she might not walk steadily.
She didn't know if it was a psychological effect, but ever since she heard the owner of the noodle shop say that she might be pregnant, Lin Wan began to subconsciously protect her belly.
The sea is beautiful, but it has a peculiar fishy smell.
As soon as she got on the boat, the sea breeze blew and the fishy smell filled her nostrils. Lin Wan subconsciously began to feel nauseous. She held the railing and retched towards the sea.
Seeing this, Mrs. Lin asked worriedly:
"What happened to Wanwan?"
While stroking Lin Wan's back, Madam Lin looked at Doctor Li and said:
"Doctor Li, could you please help me diagnose my daughter? What's wrong with her?"
Lin Wan saw Doctor Li coming over and quickly waved his hand:
"Doctor Li, I'm fine. I'm just not used to the smell of the sea. Don't worry, mother."
Pei Jing looked at her resistance and said to Madam Lin:
"Mrs. Lin, don't worry. She has been traveling a lot these days, and she must be tired. Just let her rest for a while."
Doctor Li glanced at Lin Wan's expression, then glanced at Pei Jing and said:
"The smell of the sea is a bit fishy. It's normal that many people can't stand it. Miss Lin, go inside and rest first."
Mrs. Lin helped Lin Wan to the cabin, and Pei Jing looked at her worriedly.
After all, he is still a outsider now, and it is not convenient for him to stay in the same room with Lin Wan.
Doctor Li looked at Pei Jing's worried eyes, understood, and said to him:
"I've noticed that Miss Lin hasn't been resting well recently. It's best not to make her angry and give her more meat, vegetables and fruits."
Pei Jing was a little puzzled, but still said:
"Thank you, Doctor Li."
Doctor Li nodded and said nothing more. Instead, he went to Ning Yi to check his injuries and learn about Lin Zhaoyue's condition.
After Mrs. Lin comforted Lin Wan, she walked out of the cabin, looked at Doctor Li and asked:
"Doctor Li, Qing Chen..."
Doctor Li smiled gently and said:
"I only know the general idea. When we get to the island later, I'll ask Madam Lin to ask the Fourth Young Master, maybe he will know more."
Upon hearing this, Mrs. Lin nodded and looked up at the sea.
"Your island owner?"
Doctor Li was not aware of the connection between Madam Lin and Ning Xi, but the shopkeeper beside him heard this and bowed his hands in apology:
"Our island owner is Aunt Ning Xi, who may be an old friend of Madam Lin. I had to conceal the truth just now, so I hope Madam Lin can forgive me."
Ning Xi...is still alive!
Mrs. Lin's eyes were slightly red.
She disappeared over the years and there was no news of her. She thought she really died in the fire.
She didn't know what happened in the palace that night. She only knew that on the day Ning Xi died, most of the women in the harem were killed by Xiao Zhang, and all the news was blocked.
Mrs. Lin is an outsider after all. Only the parties involved know best about emotional matters. She is just a bystander to the love-hate relationship between the emperor and Ning Xi.
The emperor's love is too obsessive and extreme, and Ning Xi is a person who cannot tolerate any grain of sand in her eyes. The emperor sits in that position and has had many women before he met Ning Xi. It seems that it is destined that they will not have a good ending.
Ning Xi, such a stunning person, left an indelible mark in the hearts of their generation.
Mrs. Lin just said in the clinic that she was Ning Xi's friend, but she actually didn't know whether she counted as such.
Duke Lin and she were comrades-in-arms. They planned battle strategies together and fought side by side.
But she was just a woman in the backyard, and all she could do every day was to bring them soup and water.
Ning Xi is very sensible and has a sense of boundaries. She would not say anything or do anything that would make her uncomfortable. When Duke Lin talks to them, the emperor is usually present. Even if the emperor is not there, there will be outsiders present. If she has free time, her favorite thing to do is to sleep.
Moreover, Ning Xi has a kind of charm that makes people feel a sense of accomplishment when they get her affirmation.
Once, Ning Xi praised her delicious yam and pork ribs soup, and then she made yam and pork ribs soup for half a month in a row, almost making Ning Xi vomit.
Although fighting was hard at first, it was not all hard work, there were many happy things as well.
Ning Xi always has endless energy, has many strange ideas in her head, and is very mysterious. She disappears frequently, which scares the emperor half to death every time. The emperor always sends people to look for her, but they can't find her no matter how hard they try.
Ning Xi has this ability. If she doesn't want others to find her, others really won't be able to find her.
Even the emperor who stands at the pinnacle of power.
So, after she faked her death and escaped from the palace, there was no news of her anymore...
When it got dark, Mrs. Lin saw tiny spots of light. Those lights were like stars, sparse and dense, like gems dotted on the dark sky.
The shopkeeper's pleasant voice was heard in my ears.
"arrive!"
As soon as the shopkeeper finished speaking, he saw a bright flag waving with the words "Welcome Home" written on it.
The child who was sitting on the shore waiting for his parents saw the uncle in the sentry tower waving the flag and knew that the big ship was coming, so he quickly cheered:
"The ship is coming, the ship is coming..."
"Abba~"
They put their hands to their mouths to make trumpet shapes and shouted loudly.
The sound was blown away by the sea breeze and swallowed up by the sound of the waves, and could not be reached by the big ship at all, but they still shouted happily at the top of their lungs.
The shopkeeper also waved the flag in his hand and responded to the man.
For some reason, when Mrs. Lin saw this scene, she suddenly wanted to cry.
The shopkeeper noticed Mrs. Lin's mood and said:
"What happened to Madam Lin?"
Mrs. Lin shook her head and said:
"fine."
I haven't seen them for many years.
Mrs. Lin had never thought that there would be a day when she would see Ning Xi again. She felt excited, happy, and a little complicated.
The boat came to a stop at the shore. As soon as it stopped, the children climbed up and rushed towards their father, shouting crisply:
"Father!"
Those people held their children and took out small toys from their pockets to coax them.
Mrs. Lin looked behind the children and saw no one else.
"Mrs. Lin, let's go down!"
Doctor Li said this and led the way off the boat first.
Along the way, Mrs. Lin carefully observed her surroundings. There was a strong smell of fireworks and life here.
The houses here are all square like boxes. It is very hot on Aurora Island, and many islanders are outside enjoying the cool air and chatting. When they see Dr. Li and his team, they greet them enthusiastically, and Dr. Li responds to them one by one.
Their lamps were neither candles nor lanterns, but a kind of oily liquid in a glass bottle with a wick sticking out that emitted light, and was covered with a layer of transparent glass.
For ordinary people, colored glaze is not an ordinary item but a luxury item, but here, it can be seen everywhere.
And each of them has its own uses. Some are used on windows, and some are made into doors.
Pei Jing felt that at this moment he was like a wild monkey who had never seen the world.
Looking at the largest and most prosperous house in front of her, Ning Xi became emotional again.
Afraid that she would cry later, Doctor Li took her in before she was mentally prepared.
However, she did not see Ning Xi, but she saw Lin Qingchen who was wrapped in gauze first.
"Mother, sister!"
