Li touched the two children's heads, turned around and told Aunt Hua to take out the gifts she had prepared long ago.

"Sister Yao, thanks to you for raising these children so well over the years, I don't know how to express my gratitude for this great kindness. This is just a small token of my gratitude. Sister Yao, please don't refuse it!"

As soon as Li finished speaking, Nanny Hua held the box and placed it in front of Doctor Shen and Yao, and opened the wooden box.

There was actually a Tianshan Snow Lotus in the wooden box!

If it was any other gold or silver, Shen Lianchuan would never be tempted, but this is Tianshan Snow Lotus, such a precious medicine, which doctor would not love it?

When Shen Rong saw the seeds inside the Tianshan Snow Lotus, she was completely excited.

There are seeds in there!

With the seeds, she can grow a field of Tianshan Snow Lotus in space.

Seeing that her grandfather didn't answer the phone for a long time, Shen Rong wanted to get up and take the thing for him.

Of course, she would not collect them in vain. It’s time to make some room for those big carrots in the space.

However, Shen Rong finally resisted the urge to get up.

Shen Lianchuan seemed to have heard Shen Rong's thoughts. He finally stood up and thanked Li: "Thank you, old lady. I would be very sorry to refuse."

Li felt relieved when she saw Shen Lianchuan took the Tianshan Snow Lotus.

It's good enough if you're willing to accept the favor. Favors are the hardest to repay. It's better to pay back a little than to owe it.

Li prepared gifts for everyone in Changsheng's family, and Changsheng got a jade pendant.

When Madam Li gave the jade pendant to Changsheng, her face was full of nostalgia. "This jade pendant was carved by your great ancestor himself. It was in your father's hands when he was alive. Now I pass this jade pendant to you. Changsheng, you..."

When Madam Li raised her eyes and saw Changsheng's childlike clear expression, she changed her mind and said, "Please keep this as a memory."

Never mind, it was a blessing that Changsheng was able to survive. She shouldn’t have asked so much of Changsheng. Now the future of the Marquis’ Mansion could only depend on the younger generation.

Li couldn't help but move her eyes to Pingping and looked at her for a while, then slowly moved her eyes to Shen Rong's face, "Good child, grandma prepared two sets of headgear for you, take them home and wear them for fun!"

Upon hearing this, Nanny Hua opened a wooden box. Shen Rong took a look inside and was immediately shocked.

The head ornaments that Mrs. Li mentioned were a set of head ornaments inlaid with fingertip-sized pearls. The largest of them was as big as the thumb tip. Each pearl sparkled with a lustrous luster. One could imagine how precious it was.

Another set is a butterfly flower-style headpiece made of gold and various gemstones.

That’s right, it is the Butterfly Flower, with petals made of gold and stamens made of gems. Several gems are piled up to form small flowers of various colors, inlaid on the flowers made of gold. It is so exquisite, and the most eye-catching thing among them is the pair of colorful butterflies on the corolla.

The butterfly's wings and antennae are outlined with gold brushed finish, with several pieces of colorful glazed tiles inlaid in the middle of the wings. The butterfly's body is carved from white jade. The whole butterfly is lifelike and dazzling under the sunlight.

It’s not that Shen Rong is short-sighted, it’s just that she has never seen such exquisite jewelry.

It's really beautiful!

Shen Rong came back to her senses and shook her head, "Old Madam, this is too expensive. I can't accept it."

Old Madam Li saw that although Shen Rong was amazed, there was no greed in her expression. The smile on her face became more kind, "These are all worn by you little girls. It would be a waste to keep them with an old woman like me. Take them!"

Shen Rong turned around and glanced at Yao.

Yao nodded to Shen Rong.

Shen Rong then took a step forward and knelt down to salute, "Thank you, old lady, for your kindness."

Li nodded and said, "If you really want to thank me, you and Changsheng should have two more children. We only have Ping'er as a male in our mansion, which is a bit too few."

Shen Rong blushed, looked at the box in her hand, and finally nodded imperceptibly.

Shen Rong has long forgotten the pain of giving birth. If she didn't think about the suffering she went through, Shen Rong would still be willing to give birth to a child. She likes children.

When Mrs. Li saw Shen Rong agreed, she immediately smiled and waved to the two children, "It's your turn, little ones. Come and see what goodies Grandma has prepared for you."

Old Madam Li prepared for each of the two children a pair of gold bracelets, a gold and jade necklace, and a pair of white jade nine-linked rings, both of which the brother and sister got.

The difference is that An An has a pair of filigree gold butterflies inlaid with colorful red agate, while Ping Ping has an inkstone and a fine wolf hair brush. The meaning is self-evident.

The two children didn't know how valuable the gift was. They just grabbed the nine-linked ring and said in unison, "Thank you, grandma!"

"All right, you guys, grow up quickly!" Li said, then turned around and instructed Aunt Hua:

"Tell the maid to go to the kitchen and make some soft and delicious snacks for the children."

After all, Mrs. Li was old, and she felt a little tired after a while. She reached out, picked up the teacup on the low table and took a sip.

Seeing this, Shen Lianchuan stood up and said goodbye to Li.

Madam Li tried to persuade Shen Rong to stay for a while, then said to her, "Now that your family is back, let your uncle Shan take you to burn some incense for Dad!"

As she spoke, Li looked at Yao and Shen Lianchuan, "As for Qingniang's child, her grave is outside the city at Shilipo."

The group came out of Minghui Courtyard and, led by Gong Shaoshan, headed straight to the ancestral hall in the north.

When Changsheng and the children came out after burning incense, Sixth Grandma and Sixth Grandpa had already prepared the things for visiting the grave and were waiting outside.

The family took a carriage out of the mansion and arrived at Shilipo outside the city.

As the name suggests, Shilipo is a long slope. Shen Qing's grave is at the foot of a small hill on the east side of the slope. That large mountain area is the ancestral tomb of the Gong family, and Shen Qing is buried there.

There is no need to say much about burning incense, visiting graves and remembering the deceased.

In short, when they finished burning incense and left, Sixth Grandpa and Sixth Grandma were not in good spirits.

Later, it was when Shen Rong mentioned the idea of ​​opening a clinic in the capital that Sixth Grandpa finally perked up a bit.

When the family returned to the Marquis' Mansion, Shen Lianchuan asked Changsheng and Shen Rong to look after the children. After packing up, he prepared to take Yao out of the Mansion to find a house.

After all, Shen Lianchuan and his family are surnamed Shen, and are outsiders to the Pingyang Marquis's Mansion. It's okay for them to stay here for a short period of time, but they are going to settle down in the capital, so naturally they need their own house.

Shen Lianchuan thought about going out to see if there was a suitable house. It would be best if it was like the one his family lived in Yunmeng County.

Shen Rong hurriedly stopped her grandfather hesitantly.

Shen Lianchuan had everything to understand when he saw this. His granddaughter-in-law was just coveting his Tianshan Snow Lotus.

Shen Lianchuan thought of Shen Rong taking out a ginseng and ganoderma from time to time in the past few years, so he reluctantly said: "I put the snow lotus in the medicine box. If you want it, go get it yourself!"

"Thank you, Grandpa!" Shen Rong smiled brightly, turned around and went into her grandfather's room to find Xuelian.

Seeing Shen Rong so impatient, Shen Lianchuan shook his head helplessly and said to Yao: "Let's go too!"

More than 20 years ago, the house they lived in the south of the city when they left the capital was sold before they left.

This time when they went to the capital, Shen Lianchuan and Yao planned to spend the rest of their lives in the capital. Since Changsheng and the children were in the marquis's mansion, he planned to buy a yard as close as possible to make it easier to take care of the children.

The south of the city is the civilian area, while the Pingyang Marquis Mansion is in the powerful and wealthy area in the west of the city.

Even though the Pingyang Marquis Mansion has little presence in the capital today and has withdrawn from the pinnacle of power, it was once wealthy when Taizu was in power. Therefore, it was normal for it to have a place in the west of the city. It's a pity that the descendants were worse than the previous generation, so they fell into decline and only had an empty title but no real power.

Shen Lianchuan had never thought of buying the yard in the west of the city. The yards in the west of the city were not circulated outside at all. If he didn't have any connections, he couldn't buy it even if he wanted to.

The Pingyang Marquis' Mansion only has the title but no connections and no real power. Shen Lianchuan is only a doctor and can only look for houses in the north and south of the city.

Fortunately, although Pingyang Marquis's Mansion was in the west of the city, it was quite close to the north of the city. Shen Lianchuan thought about it and gave up the familiar south of the city and headed straight to the north of the city with Yao.

Here, Shen Rong took out the snow lotus wood box from her grandfather's medicine box.

She took a deep breath and slowly opened the wooden box with shaking hands.
