After listening to Chun Niang's words, Shen Ruoyan realized that she was indeed still a young girl now.

However, after experiencing all kinds of painful experiences in the previous life, her heart was already riddled with holes. How could she enjoy life carefree like an ordinary girl?

However, since God has given her a chance to regain her life, Shen Ruoyan will never waste time on self-pity.

Raising a smile, Shen Ruoyan joked: "I'm just worried about you! My shopkeeper is so capable, it's so difficult for me as the boss! How much profit do I need to give you to keep you? Such a talent!"

Seeing that Shen Ruoyan finally returned to her former self, Chun Niang also smiled and answered: "Then I'll work hard and earn you more money, wouldn't it?"

A few people joked again, and seeing that it was getting late, Shen Ruoyan took Qin'er back home.

In a few days, it was Mr. Li’s birthday.

As the goddaughter of the Li family, Shen Ruoyan followed her parents to the Li Mansion early. As soon as she got off the carriage, she saw a carriage approaching.

Seeing the familiar carriage, Shen Ruoyan frowned slightly and snorted secretly in her heart.

Sure enough, the enemy's road is narrow!

The carriage stopped, and a tall figure stepped down.

Lu Yan seemed to have seen Shen Ruoyan a long time ago. He accurately found Shen Ruoyan's position from a distance and smiled at her.

Perhaps because today was a birthday banquet, Lu Yan wore a silver and vermilion lining under his moon-white outer robe, and the sleeves were also embroidered with a Ruyi-like cloud pattern using silk thread of the same color, creating a stark contrast between coolness and nobility. Opposite temperaments blended together perfectly in him.

Seeing Lu Yan, the Shen couple were particularly happy and greeted him, "Xiao Yan, what a coincidence! We met at the door. Let's go in together."

Lu Yan saluted the Shen family and his wife, "Master Shen, hello Mrs. Shen!"

After Lu Yan said hello, he smiled at Shen Ruochuan and his wife who were standing behind Mr. Lu.

Seeing Lu Yan being so polite and considerate, Mrs. Shen saw it and was happy in her heart. She asked with concern: "Xiao Yan, how is your health? I heard that you have returned to the court to handle official business. Why don't you rest for a few more days?" Take good care of yourself before talking."

Master Shen said from the side: "Xiaoyan is the pillar of the court, how can there be any reason to rest all the time? But Xiaoyan, you still have to pay attention to your body and don't overwork yourself."

Lu Yan said: "Thank you, Mr. Shen and Mrs. Shen, for your concern. My injury has healed. I would also like to thank Mrs. Shen for the nourishing food this time, especially the five-precious dumplings. It tastes delicious and I will never forget it."

After hearing this, Mrs. Shen grinned from the corner of her mouth to the back of her ears, but she still pretended not to care and said: "Oh, Xiaoyan is so polite. I just did it casually. If you like it, you can come to our house often in the future." Let’s eat.”

Lu Yan was not polite and responded immediately: "Then it's better to be respectful than to obey. Is Mrs. Shen's leg injury better?"

Mrs. Shen deliberately took a few steps quickly, "Thanks to the medicine you sent, the swelling has subsided after a few days. The doctor also said that I need to rest for at least three months. Do you think I can walk freely now?" "

Shen Ruoyan didn't know that Lu Yan was so good at pleasing people. Her mother was so moved by her few words that she laughed so hard that she seemed to be 20 years younger. Her father was not angry at all and happily chatted with her.

Even Shen Ruochuan wanted to ask Lu Yan for advice on how to practice because he heard that Lu Yan killed a tiger in a hunting ground. The group of people walked together laughing and talking, and they were unexpectedly harmonious.

Shen Ruoyan looked at this picture and wanted to tell them that the nephew Lu Xian in their eyes was not a good person, and would eventually kill their entire family!

Not wanting her family to be deceived by Lu Yan's hypocritical appearance, Shen Ruoyan walked up to Lu Yan and gently bumped his arm.

Lu Yan's lips curled up slightly and he looked towards Shen Ruoyan.

Shen Ruoyan winked quickly, and then deliberately slowed down.

Lu Yan walked slower without leaving any trace, and the two of them fell behind everyone.

Facing Lu Yan, Shen Ruoyan couldn't put on a good face, she kept a calm face and lowered her voice and asked: "How is the investigation going?"

Lu Yan did not speak, and lowered his eyelids slightly, as if he was thinking about something. His thick eyelashes reminded Shen Ruoyan of the butterfly resting on the petals, gentle and quiet.

Shen Ruoyan thought that her question was not clear enough, so she got closer to Lu Yan and asked, "Have you found the place where the tigers are kept?"

Lu Yan naturally took the gift box held by Shen Ruoyan into his own and said softly, "Well, I already have some features."

Shen Ruoyan was obviously very dissatisfied with this vague answer, "You promised me that you would tell me if you found out anything, are you not keeping your word?"

Lu Yan showed a helpless and endearing smile, and finally confessed: "I found a village in a mountain valley 90 miles north of Qingyang Hunting Ground. There are no farmers around. If there are any large beasts raised, they won't do it." Let people discover.

But the other party was very careful in what they did. When our people found the place, it was already empty and no traces were left. "

Shen Ruoyan frowned and asked, "Since there is no evidence, how can you be sure that is where tigers are kept?"

"Food." Lu Yan paused deliberately, "A tiger with such a huge body must eat an astonishing amount of food every day. I sent someone to find out that in recent months, Zhuangzi has been purchasing various chickens, ducks, and rabbits. When it comes to live poultry, it weighs at least 800 kilograms a month.

Such a large quantity obviously exceeds the needs of ordinary Zhuangzi.

Although the purchasing person was very cautious and went to several different villages to purchase, it was also because he was too cautious and was afraid of leaking the news. He went there by himself every time, so he only had to ask the villagers about the person's appearance and body shape. Wait for the characteristics, and then add up the amount he purchased, you can deduce that the things he purchased far exceeded the actual needs of their village. "

Hearing this, Shen Ruoyan couldn't help but nodded in admiration.

When it comes to thoughtfulness, who can compare to Lu Yan?

Seeing the two people leaning closely together and whispering to each other, the Shen family couple walking in front exchanged glances with each other, with understanding expressions on their faces.

My daughter, who had been clamoring not to get married a few days ago, went to the General's Mansion several times to visit her, and she became so close to Xiaoyan.

Sure enough, the fact that she wanted to break off the engagement before was just a matter of the young girl being naive and shy.

It seems that after Master Li's birthday banquet is over, they will start preparing for Xiaoyan and Ayan's marriage. Counting the days, it's only been a few months since Chun left.
