Shen Wan pushed open the cracked window sash and looked downstairs at Zhuyun.

Downstairs, the courtyard is full of green bamboos, and the bamboo leaves are blown by the warm spring breeze, making a rustling sound.

In the emerald green bamboo forest, there is a stone path leading to the open courtyard gate.

Beside the gate of the courtyard, there is a little maid wearing a turquoise bijia guarding the door, because the Zhuyun courtyard is full of rich green, if you don't look carefully, you can hardly recognize her.

Inside the room, two big maids wearing water-red bijia standing in the corner looked at the master's handsome back and always felt that she was a little nervous.

An Chun and An Dong have served Shen Wan by her side for seven or eight years, and they followed Shen Wan who married into the Xiao family to the Xiao family, so they know their master well.Therefore, even if Shen Wan stood in front of the window with her back to them, they could feel that Shen Wan was nervous at the moment.Because Shen Wan seemed to be standing in front of the window casually, but her body was tense, and the hands drooping by the skirt were clenched unconsciously.

Why is the master nervous?

An Chun and An Dong glanced at each other, doubts written in each other's eyes.

After all, this is not at Xiao's house, but in another courtyard of Shen's natal family. Even if the master of Xiao's family is not very happy, but on the day of Shangsi Festival, it is a beautiful spring. Shouldn't the master relax and be comfortable?

Shen Wan brought a few loyal servants around her to the Shen family courtyard yesterday afternoon. She came here to wait for the Shangsi Festival, the third day of March.

She felt that she had not just waited for one night and one morning, but had waited for 51 years, seven months and sixteen days.

In fact, she herself was very confused at first.

When she woke up, she found that she was only there, and it was on the second day of March in the first year of Longqing. She immediately remembered one thing, that was the next day, the third day of March, the day she first met Lin Jinglan.

Lin Jinglan...

Thinking of this person, Shen Wan's heart would shrink into a ball in pain.

At an age when she didn't understand love, she never noticed that the girl named Lin Jinglan and Lan'er had a deep affection for her, and for her, she was willing to replace Shen Tang who was framed for her.

The night before Jing Lan was sent to Shentang, Shen Wan went to see her for the last time. Jing Lan told her about her admiration for her and asked for a kiss.

Shen Wan kissed her, and after the kiss, Jing Lan stayed in her heart for 51 years, seven months and sixteen days.

Until the end of her life, she missed Jing Lan all her life.

Before she closes her eyes, she only has one wish, that is to meet Jing Lan in the next life, and to be in love with her...

I don't know if God heard her prayer and fulfilled her.

But it's not the next life, but a new life, she inexplicably returned to the day before meeting Jing Lan for the first time.

So she immediately asked people to pack up their burdens regardless of her, and she wanted to rush to the Shen family's other courtyard located in the east of Qingxi Village at the foot of Qixia Mountain.

No one in her husband's family stopped her, but she still went out.

After arriving at the Shen family courtyard, she immediately arranged it. If she remembered correctly, after noon on the third day of March, Jing Lan should have appeared in the Shen family courtyard just like in her previous life. In order to save her younger brother Ah Shan, there was another A boy named Ah Hu.

Ah Shan and Ah Hu came to Shen's courtyard to steal rice, and counting the time they were arrested, they came to Shen's courtyard to steal rice twice, and the amount was only about twenty catties.

However, she ordered the housekeeper to tell Jing Lan that Ah Shan and Ah Hu stole no less than a thousand catties of rice.

The consequences of stealing so much rice are very serious. If Ah Shan and Ah Hu are to be fine, Jing Lan must plead with her after seeing her.

If she pleads with herself...

Shen Wan raised the corners of her lips.

Afterwards, she could make her request logically, she wanted Jing Lan to go with her, and she wanted Jing Lan to be her own, for the rest of her life.

Nervous, apprehensive, and uncontrollable excitement, these three emotions appeared alternately, since arriving at the Shen family's other courtyard yesterday.

At this moment, she reached her peak when she looked at the gate of Zhuyun Courtyard.

Jing Lan, you should be here soon...

A few strong servants escorted Jinglan, and followed Mother Chen to the Zhuyun courtyard, which was the last one to enter the Shen family courtyard.

Mother Chen said that she would bring the rice-stealing girl to the master, and let the master punish her. As for the other two rice-stealing teenagers, they should be locked up first.

Jing Lan wept sadly all the way, she didn't want to cry, but she really felt wronged, because she was wronged, and the people in Shen's other courtyard didn't believe her.

She was so upset that she didn't know how she was brought to a quiet and tidy yard planted with many green bamboos.

"Here, hello, why are you crying so much, my aunt thought we wronged you when she saw her?" Mama Chen stopped at the gate of Zhuyun courtyard, turned around and glanced at the weeping Jinglan and said dissatisfiedly.

Jing Lan sniffled, and said with the same dissatisfaction: "You have wronged me, and I want to wipe my tears, but my hand... you hold me, can I wipe it?"

Chen's mother curled her lips, waved her hands to let go of the two strong maids who were holding Jinglan, and then asked Jinglan to wipe her tears, and followed her in to see her aunt.She also said that her aunt was the most tidy person, and when the servants saw her and reported to her, they had to tidy up and clean, otherwise they would be scolded by the aunt.

Jing Lan felt weird when she heard this, because she was not a servant of the Shen family, so she should be a "prisoner" captured by the Shen family at this moment.

Such a "prisoner" like her was required to be well-groomed to meet the woman who designed to capture her, and let that woman be convicted. Isn't this a joke?

If it was possible, she really wanted to get covered in mud and paint pot bottom ash on her face to annoy that woman and disgust her.It was this woman who not only wronged her younger brother and Ah Hu for stealing rice, but also used them as bait to capture herself, who had nothing to do with stealing rice.

However, until now, she couldn't figure it out, how could the woman who was called the eldest aunt by the woman in front of her think that she was going to save Ah Shan and Ah Hu?

Could it be that she is really supernatural, is it a fortune teller?

The little maid guarding the gate of Zhuyun courtyard saw Mother Chen bringing Jinglan, so she ran early to report the news.

The maid who was guarding downstairs in Zhuyun carried her skirt and went upstairs to report to Shen Wan.

Shen Wan, who was standing in front of the window on the second floor of Zhuyun Building, had actually seen Jing Lan who was led in by Mother Chen.

When I saw the figure that could only appear in dreams countless times, my heart was ups and downs and I was very excited.

Suppressing her heartbeat, Shen Wan ordered softly: "Let Mother Chen bring that girl up."

The servant girl who came to report the letter agreed, but stepped back.

Shen Wan then walked to a red sandalwood desk in the room, spread out a piece of paper, picked up a brush and started drawing.

She drew a picture of bamboo, rocks and orchids. The bamboos are tall and straight, the orchids are beautiful, and the strange rocks are jagged.

Jing Lan, who was brought upstairs by Chen's mother, smelled a mixture of ink fragrance and bergamot fragrance, and then saw a graceful young woman with black hair standing in front of a red sandalwood desk , holding a pen in one hand, and drawing with the other by rolling up her jade-colored sleeves.

Chunyang came in from the cracked ice window on the right side, hitting the right side of her face and body. Jing Lan felt that she was carved out of high-quality suet jade, and the whole body was radiant.Especially her right hand holding the pen, from the exposed slender wrist down, the slender fingers pinching the white jade pen tube are even whiter and more transparent than the white jade pen tube.

Because she was painting with her head down, Jing Lan couldn't see her face clearly, but, based on everything she saw now, she would guess that this woman, whom the mother-in-law called "magic fortune-telling", should be a beauty.And she is not a vulgar fan, but a woman with culture and quality.

Jing Lan was secretly curious about the face of this unexpected woman in front of her.

At the beginning, when she was caught and brought, she guessed that the woman who used Ah Shan and Ah Hu as bait to instruct the servants of the Shen family to catch her should have a pointed face, high cheekbones, and triangular eyes. Very sinister and cunning woman.

but……

"Auntie, this old slave brought the woman who stole the rice." Mama Chen stepped forward to salute Shen Wan, and flattered her.

"En." Shen Wan said softly, then put down the pen in her hand, and slowly raised her head to look at Jing Lan.

Jing Lan whispered in her heart, her beautiful eyes suddenly widened.

How could there be such a stunning beauty in the world!

She is several times more beautiful than what Jing Lan imagined.Her facial features are very good-looking and regular. Each of them may not be considered outstanding alone, but when combined together, it strangely makes her face instantly eye-catching.She has a pair of black eyes like a deep pool, red lips with a perfect shape like a dan, and a cold temperament, just like the red plum blossoms blooming on a lonely cliff in the dark night, with a faint fragrance floating and shadowy, which makes people fascinated.

Jing Lan stared blankly at Shen Wan, her mind was empty, she forgot all the explanations and pleadings she had thought up when she went upstairs.

Shen Wan quietly wiped off the sweat on the palm of her right hand with the handkerchief pinched in her left hand.

God knows how hard it was for her to force herself to draw calmly just now. She didn't want to sit on a certain chair in the room and wait quietly for the person she had been thinking about for 51 years, seven months and sixteen days to come to her.

She didn't want that person to see that she was waiting for her, waiting for her without doing anything, and she didn't want Jing Lan to see that she cared about her.

There has never been love for no reason in the world, if it is too obvious, it will definitely scare that little girl.

That's right, Jing Lan is still a little girl, only 13 years old this year.

In fact, Shen Wan herself is not considered very old, but she is only five years older than Jing Lan, but she is a reborn person, and she has seen and experienced more things than Jing Lan.Therefore, in Shen Wan's eyes, Jing Lan is just a little girl.

For such a little girl, Shen Wan thought that she must not be impatient.

Anyway, she has already fallen into her own pot, and she will be eaten anyway. If she simmers slowly over low heat, it will be extremely delicious when the time comes.
