Shen Ning brought a piano with him when he went out. He was in a good mood at the moment, so it was perfect for him to play the piano.

However, she had not touched the strings of the zither for many years, and for a moment she didn't know what tune to play.

She started using an abacus at the age of fifteen and learned to be mercenary and profit-driven. Until her death, she never took out the zither.

In fact, there is no conflict between a businessman's pursuit of profit and leisurely elegance. It was she herself who could not bear the pressure, became exhausted, and finally got caught in her own cocoon and could not break free.

"clank......"

Shen Ning plucked the strings slowly. It was neither a tune nor a tune, but she felt it was extremely pleasant to the ears. The sound of the piano spread out in circles, dispelling the invisible and intangible haze.

Yuzhu came in with a freshly baked pastry in her hand: "Miss, please try it. Aunt Wang's lotus pastry is so delicious."

Shen Ning's farm has a lotus pond. Aunt Wang, who manages the farm, is best at making various delicious foods with lotus flowers, lotus leaves, lotus roots, lotus seeds, etc.

Before Shen Ning made a move, one of his little paws was on the edge of the table, eager to try the lotus pastry.

Yuzhu patted her lightly and said, "Miss, you haven't eaten yet. You have no manners."

Shen Ning took a piece of lotus crisp and tasted it. It was sweet but not greasy, and had a familiar taste.

He glanced at the little fool squatting beside him, took a piece and put it in the empty cup and handed it to him: "Eat it."

The little fool has a small and heroic face. She looks normal when she closes her eyes, but once she opens her eyes, her clear and innocent eyes expose her completely.

Mo Xueer, Mo Lin's sister, a little fool.

Shen Ning had always thought that she was a girl with a strong personality and outstanding looks, but he gave her a "surprise" as soon as they met.

After the two recovered from their injuries, Shen Ning sent them to the farm. Mo Lin worked very hard and never complained. His only request was to keep his sister. Otherwise, if he sent this little fool back alone, no one would know when she died.

Forced buy one get one free.

Shen Ning is not an unkind person. She can let him stay. Anyway, she has to squeeze it back from Mo Lin.

And Mo Lin didn't know what he said to this little fool. After seeing Shen Ning, he kept sticking to her.

She was well-behaved and not annoying. She always stayed not too far from Shen Ning, playing with stones and branches by herself like a little animal.

Yuzhu and Liuying both knew what had happened to this girl. They sympathized with her and felt sorry for her, but they were still a little dissatisfied.

"Miss, I don't think she is particularly stupid and can still be taught. If she wants to stay with you, she must be ignorant."

Shen Ning wiped his hands: "Well, it's okay."

After saying that, he turned around and flicked Mo Xue's little head with his finger: "If you want to stay with me, then listen to Sister Yuzhu obediently, understand?"

Mo Xue blinked, nodded and shook her head, not knowing whether she understood or not.

Shen Ning stayed at the farm for a few days. Apart from looking at the account books, he went boating on the lake, admired the lotus flowers and drank tea, and occasionally went to the mountains to pick some wild fruits and vegetables.

She thought it was normal, but Du Yunzhi was very envious.

Although she likes to make money, who doesn't like to have fun? However, she doesn't have time for it at the moment, so annoying!

"Miss."

Shen Ning's body was warmed by the sun and she felt a little lazy. When she heard someone calling her, she was slow to look up after a moment.

The tall body blocked out most of the sunlight, and the place instantly became a lot cooler. It was Mo Lin.

After Mo Lin cleaned it up, it actually looked quite real.

He has regular facial features, which are slightly more profound than those of ordinary people. His eyebrows are like knife blades, his eyes are like animal pupils, his gaze is like torches, and he looks a little fierce.

Due to years of hunting and working, his skin is dark, he is tall and strong, his muscles are full of strength, and he looks aggressive even though he is wrapped in clothes.

A very healthy and strong adult man.

Because of Mo Lin's presence, Shen Ning's previous servants have become more obedient and well-behaved.

Shen Ning is not a woman who regards her husband as her heaven, but the fact is that, whether it is humans or animals, men have far greater deterrence than women.

This is why Shen Ning wanted to marry Wei Congwen before.

Now she doesn't want to get married, and Mo Lin has solved this problem. The only thing that troubles her is probably...

Her eyes slowly fell on Mo Lin's fist. Tsk, this punch could kill three of her.

The next moment, Mo Lin knelt down in front of her and said, "Miss, it's time to go back."

Shen Ning was sitting and Mo Lin was squatting, looking straight ahead.

I don't know what he noticed, but his aura was restrained and he looked like a huge but loyal mastiff.

"Well, let's go."

-----

The first visitor to Shen Ning was an unexpected person, Li Shaobai.

"Miss Shen, I'm passing by here on my way back. Can I have a cup of tea?"

Shen Ning raised his hand: "Young Master Li, please."

Li Shaobai looked around. The farm where Shen Ning stayed was not big. The main building was built against the mountain, with three small attics next to it. In the middle was an open space with rhododendrons planted on both sides. The whole place was surrounded by a wall less than two meters high. At first glance, it looked simple and clear.

At first glance it looks like an ordinary manor, but when you walk to the main house and stand on the stairs, you will see green mountains and overlapping peaks.

Facing south, you can enjoy the sunrise and sunset all year round.

Li Shaobai couldn't help but be surprised: "Miss Shen has found a good place."

Shen Ning brought Li Shaobai to the attic: "This is our ancestors' property. It has been around for hundreds of years."

"Master Li, please take a seat."

The attic door was open and the tea table was placed next to the door, from where you could see further.

Li Shaobai sighed softly: "The mountain breeze, beautiful scenery, and fragrant tea, it is indeed a good place to recuperate."

It was hard for Shen Ning to disagree with this.

Yuzhu brought up the tea, and Shen Ning asked her to go down: "Take her away with you."

Yuzhu turned around and almost forgot about this little fool.

Shen Ning leaned lightly on the armrest: "No one comes to visit you for no reason. Master Li, if you have something to say, just speak up."

She knew that Li Shaobai had something to talk to her about, and guessed it was about the Jinbao Tower incident, but she was shocked by the first sentence Li Shaobai said.

"Shen Ning, you almost killed me."

"Ok?"

Li Shaobai's solemn expression did not seem like he was lying. He looked deeply into Shen Ning's eyes and asked, "Do you know where your gold brick came from?"

Shen Ning had some guesses: "National treasury."

Li Shaobai exhaled heavily. "Each gold brick in the national treasury has a number and year. Every time a gold brick is released from the treasury, there is a clear record. I checked that gold brick and found that it was released from the treasury four years ago and was used to build the Rongjiang Dam."

His expression gradually turned cold, with a warning tone: "Li, I don't know what Miss Shen wants to investigate, but you'd better stop here, otherwise you will be in great trouble."

He got up and left without finishing his cup of tea.
