The cats that Jiang Wan ordered will also be delivered in January.

Jiang Wan didn't buy too many cats. He only ordered five cats for the time being and planned to try them out on the second floor first.

We’ll talk about it only if it really works. You have to experiment with everything you do and not just rush into it all at once.

Jiang Wan had just gotten up today and hadn't had time to wash and dress when someone came outside.

It was Chunxi, the one beside Li again.

Jiang Wan had already guessed what it was without her saying anything.

"Young Madam, the Madam asked if you had enough rest. Miss Lan Yue is a guest, so you should go and meet her."

This is about rest.

Jiang Wan knew that Li didn't take her illness seriously at all, but after what happened last time, she didn't want to quarrel with him.

"How many days has Miss Lan Yue been here?" Jiang Wan sat on a wooden chair with pear blossom relief, looking at the person in the bronze mirror with her clear eyes, while the little maid beside her was drawing her eyebrows for her.

Chunxi next to him replied politely, "I've been here for five days."

Jiang Wan then nodded. Fu Yan had not returned for the past five days.

No wonder Li was so anxious to let me meet Lan Yue.

I'm afraid he also knew that it would not be good if the news got out that a foreign girl had stayed in the mansion for a long time without any reason.

If she fails to become Fu Yan's concubine and ends up ruining her reputation outside, she would be losing the rice while trying to gain the chicken.

At this time, Lan Yue's father had not died of illness yet, so her arrival should be due to Li.

This Li was thinking about how to get her own people into Fu Yan's room every day.

Don't worry about anything else.

"Okay." Jiang Wan responded calmly, and she went to see how these two people would act.

Chunxi then slowly stepped back and went back to reply.

By the time Jiang Wan finished dressing up, she didn't know how much time had passed.

She was wearing a bright red jacket with hundreds of butterflies and gold flowers all over it, which made her look very radiant.

But before Jiang Wan could reach Li’s courtyard.

Sui Lin came hurriedly.

He was in direct conflict with Jiang Wan.

Jiang Wan rarely saw Sui Lin so anxious.

"What's the matter, sir?" Jiang Wan asked.

Sui Lin took a few deep breaths and wiped the sweat from his forehead.

Then he said, "Today, the emperor ordered you and the Minister of Personnel to go south to renovate the farmland protection river and compile a tax map."

Jiang Wan frowned when he heard this, and didn't know how he became Fu Yan in this life.

Obviously, Fu Yan was not implicated in this incident in the previous life.

"But the Lord proposed it himself?"

Jiang Wan could only guess this.

Going south is not an easy task. If it is like in the previous life, it is possible that I will be dismissed from my post.

"Yes, I was also sweating at the time, but the master insisted on doing so."

Sui Lin looked at Jiang Wan and said, "I just wanted to go back to the palace to report. I'm telling you this first. The emperor is still thinking about this matter and hasn't finalized the list. You still have room to regret it, sir."

Sui Lin's family has lived in the mansion since childhood, and Sui Lin's father is a steward.

He also has a younger brother named Sui Ming, who has a calm personality and is usually sent by Fu Yan to do important tasks that cannot go wrong.

Sui Lin was the servant who took care of Fu Yan and was always by his side.

It's normal for Sui Lin to be so worried.

Jiang Wan's expression didn't change much.

Although this didn't happen in the previous life, Jiang Wan still has great confidence in Fu Yan. If he can take on this, he must have his own plans.

Sui Lin saw that his young mistress didn't look worried at all, and he was worried and complaining about Fu Yan in his heart.

No wonder the daughter-in-law, who was not chosen by the mansion itself, doesn’t care about the master at all.

"Madam, this matter involves a lot of things. Do you want to persuade the master?"

"No need, the master has his own way of thinking."

Jiang Wan's cold and calm voice made Sui Lin even angrier, "Then I'll go and tell the old lady."

Jiang Wan raised her eyebrows and ignored the contempt on his face.

I just feel like I have no say here.

Jiang Wan was annoyed when she thought that she still had to meet Lan Yue, so she said, "Why don't you go and tell the eldest lady first? The old lady should still be worshipping Buddha at this time, so don't disturb her."

After hearing this, Sui Lin just returned a slight salute without saying anything else. However, he listened to Jiang Wan's words and went to Li's yard first.

Jiang Wan followed slowly behind.

Li had been waiting for Jiang Wan for a long time, but she didn't expect that Sui Lin, who was by her son's side, would come first.

I knew something big must have happened to her son.

"But what happened to the master?"

Li stood up.

After paying his respects, he repeated to Li what he had just said to Jiang Wan.

Jiang Wan had already followed and saw that after Li heard the story, her eyes went dark and she almost fainted.

You know, if she really went south, it would take at least three to five years, and her son is still so young.

Not to mention that if this matter is not handled well, it will be a serious matter that you will lose your head.

Li immediately held the armrest of the grand master's chair and touched her forehead, "This was proposed by the master himself."

Sui Lin said yes, and Li looked at him, "Does the emperor agree?"

"The list of people going south has not been finalized yet." But it is estimated that unless Fu Yan himself regrets it, he will not change it.

Li didn't know what her son was thinking.

Lan Yue, who was standing next to her, saw that she could barely stand and immediately went over to help her.

Li became even more unhappy when he saw the people around him. He had been thinking of using Lan Yue to divide Jiang Wan's power, but now this happened.

Jiang Wan stood there from beginning to end without saying a word.

Li looked over and asked, "You heard it just now, right?"

Jiang Wan nodded, "Don't worry, mother-in-law. It will take more than half a year to go south. It won't be that fast."

Although Li knew about this, she felt uncomfortable when she thought about her son being gone for three to five years. "Does the old lady know about this?"

Sui Lin glanced at Jiang Wan and shook his head.

Li frowned, "I have to tell the old lady about this and ask her to persuade Yan'er. This is too absurd. He is doing well in his position in the capital, why does he have to take on this hard work again?"

Jiang Wan didn't know what Fu Yan was thinking.

She wondered what he had been doing these days, as he hadn't even returned home. It turned out that he was preparing for this matter.

Sui Lin just came to report the news in advance, and he would go back to Fu Yan soon.

There were only a few servants left in the room, Yu Li and her eldest niece.

Li was still thinking about how to tell Fu Yan.

However, Lan Yue next to him became anxious.

I had originally thought that I could take it slow, but now Fu Yan doesn't have much time left for me.

I will be moving south in another half a year. By then, after three to five years, I will be an old girl.

But I can't afford to gamble.

She looked at Jiang Wan with her eyes. The young woman in front of her was completely different from what she had heard in Jinling.

It is said that the legitimate daughter of the marquis's mansion lives a more miserable life than a concubine's daughter.

Few people have seen her, and even those few who have seen her don't have much impression of her.

I can't even say a word about this person.
