Originally, this kind of thing shouldn't have been decided by her.

But unfortunately, no one understands the situation of the women in the mansion better than her.

"Master, do you remember there was a sister named Zhou Yuan? She is three years older than me. You only favored her once and never saw her again." Zhou Lianxiang quickly spoke up, "Sister Yuan'er has a natural water-based spiritual root, although it is the lowest grade, she understands water-based martial arts and techniques the best. So it's good to entrust the young miss to her."

Zhou Yuan? Older than Zhou Lianxiang?

Zhou Lianxiang was the first woman to enter the Lin Mansion, so Lin Chen had a deeper impression of her.

As for the others, they really don't match up.

"If Master doesn't remember, why not call her to see?" Zhou Lianxiang smiled.

Regarding Lin Chen not remembering the other women, she felt quite comfortable in her heart.

Seeing Zhou Lianxiang like this, Lin Chen pinched her nose and said, "You are the most attentive, so go ahead and call her."

Soon, a woman in her twenties walked in.

The woman was nearing thirty, with a well-proportioned figure, the most charming time for a woman.

Unlike the other women's fragility, Zhou Yuan wore a dark purple robe and tied her hair up high, exuding an indescribable air of elegance, which was refreshing.

After seeing her, Lin Chen immediately remembered.

At that time, this woman also had such a serious expression, without any coquettishness or emotions, just like a high school class teacher. That's why he never practiced spiritual cultivation with her again.

Now, she stood here, still the same: "Master!"

"Ah, um, well..." Lin Chen didn't know why, but he felt a bit nervous in front of her, just like when he saw his class teacher in school. "I heard that you have a low-grade water-based spiritual root, and Mingzhu's mother has passed away, so I thought, can you take care of this child?"

Zhou Yuan's face relaxed a bit when she heard this.

She looked at Lin Chen in disbelief, "You actually want me to raise the young miss?"

"I know that if the child is not your own, you may not like her very much, but... forget it, if you don't like it, forget it." Lin Chen sighed.

He had thought too simplistically.

"I like it." Zhou Yuan spoke, "Thank you for trusting me, Master."

This...

Looking at her cold face, it was really hard to tell where she liked this child.

"You don't have to force yourself." Lin Chen regretted a bit. What if this child grew up to be as cold as her?

Zhou Yuan's attitude was also very clear, "I really want to."

Really want to? Then... let it be.

"Well, go to the courtyard and bring Mingzhu over. Make sure to take good care of her." Lin Chen instructed.

Without a word, Zhou Yuan bowed and turned to leave.

Seeing Lin Chen like this, Zhou Lianxiang covered her mouth and chuckled, "Master, you looked really cute just now."

"This woman, this temper, she couldn't get married, so she was given to me, right?" Lin Chen sighed helplessly.

Zhou Lianxiang, however, didn't think so. She shook her head and said, "Yuan'er is always serious and cold, but in reality, she has a good heart. She cultivates diligently in her own courtyard without competing or fighting. It's just a pity that she doesn't have exceptional spiritual roots, otherwise, she would definitely achieve something."

"We are all mediocre people. Although we have some talent, we can't achieve anything in cultivation, which is why our family abandoned us," Zhou Lianxiang shrugged.

They were not from the main branch and were not outstanding, so how could they be valued?

On the path of cultivation, it not only relies on talent but also on resources.

If you have money and resources, you can make rapid progress. However, their talents are not worth those resources, so they were quickly marginalized.

This is a common occurrence.

Speaking of this, Lin Chen suddenly remembered something.

He stood up and brought a large box from behind the bookshelf.

He opened it on the ground and said, "These are Qi-replenishing pills and Spirit-replenishing pills. They can nourish your spiritual roots and meridians, strengthen your foundation, and cultivate your essence. They are good things. Take them and distribute them to those women who are not pregnant. Although they are my people, they shouldn't neglect their cultivation."

"This...this..." Zhou Lianxiang couldn't believe her eyes as she looked at this large box of pills.

This was truly shocking!

You should know that each of these pills is worth a fortune. But now, they were as common as cabbage, a whole box of them right in front of her, available for her to use as she pleased.

"Family Head? Is this...real?" Zhou Lianxiang was so excited that she was about to cry.

If it weren't for the fact that she was pregnant now, she would want to devour them greedily.

Seeing her like this, Lin Chen laughed, walked up to her, pinched her face, and said gently, "What's wrong? Have you gone silly? Can't you understand my words? These are all for you. Take them endlessly and use them without running out!"

"Thank you, Family Head! Thank you, Family Head!" Zhou Lianxiang's voice trembled with excitement. She couldn't say anything else, only these trembling words of thanks.

"I think you've really gone silly," Lin Chen laughed, rubbed her head, and said gently, "Since you've followed me, I will naturally not mistreat you."

To Lin Chen, these people were the backbone of the family in the future. He naturally wouldn't be stingy with these easily obtainable things.

"Alright, don't get too excited. Be careful of the child in your belly," Lin Chen smiled, embraced her, and said softly, "Take good care of yourself. Give birth to a healthy and chubby child for me. When I come back, I won't go out anymore. I'll stay at home and accompany you all, alright?"

Zhou Lianxiang felt warm in her heart and nodded, "Okay, I will take good care of the family's reputation. Family Head, rest assured."

Yes, this is the feeling they wanted.

It was because they had someone like Zhou Lianxiang in the family that Lin Chen could feel at ease to go out and gain experience.

Three days passed quickly.

Zhou Zhuqing came with a group of people to meet Lin Chen.

Seeing that Zhou Zhuqing brought so many people, Lin Chen frowned slightly and asked worriedly, "Is the situation over there not good, so you brought so many people?"

"The Demon Suppression Tower has become unstable, and many fierce beasts have escaped, so we need manpower to capture them," Zhou Zhuqing shrugged, looking helpless.

Lin Chen didn't understand, "How could the Demon Suppression Tower suddenly become unstable? Is there no news from the Demon Realm?"

"Although the Immortal Sect and the Demon Realm have been minding their own business for these years, you should know that the Demon Realm has always been ambitious. This time, it might be intentional on their part," Zhou Zhuqing snorted coldly. "One day, I will break through to the Gold Core stage and become a Nascent Soul. Then, I'll show those demons who's boss! I'll teach them a lesson!"

Seeing her full of fighting spirit, Lin Chen immediately nodded, "Yes, we should definitely teach them a lesson and let them know who's in charge! Here, I support you with a bottle of Qi-replenishing pills and another bottle of Spirit-replenishing pills!"
