Shen Wan led An Chun and An Dong to settle the accounts for more than an hour, then raised her head, rubbed the back of her neck, and temporarily put down the work at hand.Accounts were settled at the end of last year, and there is only one season since the end of the new year, so there are not many accounts to be settled.But even if it's not too much, it can't be calculated clearly in more than an hour.As the eldest daughter of Shen's family, her dowry has two farms, two shops, and a weaving workshop.The account of the farm must be put into storage after the autumn harvest every year, and the head of the farm below will come to pay the account, so there is no need to calculate it at this moment.As for the two shops selling silk and spices, and the weaving workshop with hundreds of looms, the amount of money coming in and out every month is not small, and it may take four or five days to settle the accounts.As for her, she decided to stay in Shen's other courtyard for a few days to clarify these accounts before going back to Xiao's house.As for why he had to figure out the accounts before going back, of course it was for the sake of being refreshed when reconciling and leaving, and not to be involved with the Xiao family in terms of money.

"Calculate here first, and then tomorrow. An Chun, take me to see that savage girl." Shen Wan stood up and ordered.

It was also thanks to the settlement that divided her mind, otherwise she would have lost control of her feet and wanted to go to the next door to see Jinglan.

"Yes, girl." An Chun responded, and then stood up to lead the way, "I want my servant to tell me, why bother to see her, she is locked up with us, she must be better off than her family, she will not escape, Maybe I wish the girl could lock her up for a few more days."

Shen Wan smiled and remained silent when she heard the words.Xin said, if Jing Lan really wanted to live here with good food and good food, and then agreed to go with her, then she really wished for it.In her previous life, she had missed Jing Lan so much for more than 50 years. Now that she is seeing her again, Shen Wan of course wants to keep her by her side and never let her leave her.And if you want to keep Jing Lan by your side, the most upright way is to let her change from a good citizen to a slave, and hold her body deed by yourself.

In fact, in Shen Wan's heart, of course she does not regard Jing Lan as a slave and wants to treat her equally.

But holding Jing Lan's body deed will make her feel at ease, which is the reason why she came to Shen's other courtyard immediately after her rebirth to make arrangements to capture Jing Lan.

In her previous life, she went to the Shen family courtyard to celebrate the Shangsi Festival on the third day of March in the first year of Longqing. Steward Fan captured Ah Shan and Ah Hu, and Jing Lan who went into the Shen family courtyard to find them.What Steward Fan said at the time was that these people stole tens of catties of rice from Shen's other courtyard. Although the amount was not large, it was an act of theft. The boy was escorted to the Yamen for punishment.

Later, Jinglan's parents and the parents of the boy named Ahu came to find them. They begged Shen Wan to let Ashan and Aguo go, and said that they would double the compensation for the Shen family's lost rice.

Shen Wan didn't agree, because she also agreed with Steward Fan's statement that if the two rice-stealing teenagers were not punished, the villagers here would not be deterred, and they might do the same thing as the two teenagers.What's more, the Shen family is not short of tens of hundreds of catties of rice.

In the end, it was Jing Lan who kowtowed to Shen Wan to beg for mercy, until her forehead bled. She said that she was willing to serve Shen Wan as a slave and handmaiden for the rest of her life, and swore to be loyal to her in exchange for letting the two boys go.

I don't know if she was moved by Jing Lan's tearful eyes and the blood dripping from her forehead, Shen Wan agreed to her plea with a soft heart, let her be her servant, and let Ah Shan and Ah Hu go.

After Jing Lan became her servant, she really did her best to serve her, and fulfilled the oath she made, and she was loyal to her.

From the age of 13 to 16, Shen Wan knew that Jing Lan had never seen anyone else in her eyes. At that time, she always thought that Jing Lan was a rare loyal servant girl.It wasn't until the night before Jing Lan replaced Shen Tang that she realized that Jing Lan had fallen in love with her since the first time she saw her.In Jinglan's words, the first time she saw her, Jinglan's heart was beating wildly, and she wanted to come to her regardless, it was a strong feeling of liking.For her, Jing Lan can give up her life without any scruples.

Shen Wan felt that she had never experienced that kind of strong liking for someone in her previous life.

She just put Jing Lan in the bottom of her heart, from a jar of new wine to old wine, sleeping alone every night or tasting it alone under the green lamp and ancient Buddha in the Buddhist hall.

In this life, when she first met Jing Lan, she paid special attention to her expression, and saw Jing Lan's gaffe as she wished.

Jing Lan's slightly raised almond eyes widened suddenly, with an expression of both obsession and surprise on her face.

In this way, Shen Wan believed that what Jing Lan and Shen Tang said the night before in her previous life was indeed true. Jing Lan fell in love with her at first sight and liked her.

It's just that Jing Lan's performance later on was quite different from her previous life, which made Shen Wan a little uncertain.

But she is still very confident, thinking that Jing Lan likes her somewhat, and she makes her eat and drink to live next to the study in Zhuyun Building. As long as Jing Lan's parents come to intercede, Jing Lan will be like In the previous life, for the sake of those two teenagers and her secret love for her, she was willing to sign a contract of sale and become her slave.

When An Chun took out the key to open the lock, and pushed open the door of the small room where Jing Lan was closed, Shen Wan saw that the sweet white porcelain plate on the small black lacquered round table in the room was empty, and the little maid next to her was empty. Whispering that Jinglan really could eat, she ate another plate of tea cakes, and then asked for a pot of Longjing tea.An Chun whispered that another coin was gone.

The little maid wanted to go into the room to call Jing Lan out to see Shen Wan, Shen Wan waved her hand and said no, she went in to have a look.

She turned around the screen with light steps, and saw Jing Lan lying on the bed in the inner room, sleeping face-out.

Shen Wan walked over and lowered her head to look at her carefully, and saw that although she was drooling in a heartless sleep, her eyebrows were still frowning, probably she had something on her mind even in a dream.As soon as she saw that the brocade quilt she was wearing had slipped down a little and did not cover her abdomen, Shen Wan stretched out her hand to pull up the quilt and cover her up.

After Jing Lan ate two plates of tea cakes and drank two pots of Longjing tea, she walked into the inner room contentedly. When she saw the beautifully laid bed, she naturally wanted to go over and sit down.After sitting down, I wanted to lie down, and with the rich sweet scent in the tent, people tend to get sleepy in the spring afternoon, so as soon as Jing Lan lay down for a while, sleepy bugs swarmed her. Before she fell asleep, she He hooked the brocade quilt with his feet and put it on his body indiscriminately.

Before Shen Wan came in to see her, she had slept for more than half an hour. It is estimated that she had never taken a nap since she came here, or she was worried that the matter of stealing rice had not been resolved, so Jing Lan did not sleep deeply.As soon as Shen Wan pulled the quilt to cover her, she was awakened.

As soon as she opened her eyes, she saw Shen Wan who was bending over and holding the quilt to cover her with a smile on her lips. After being dazed for a while, Jing Lan hurriedly got up, hugged the quilt and moved back, away from Shen Wan. Some, watching her warily.

Seeing Jing Lan like this, Shen Wan was stunned and disappointed for a moment.

She froze and kept bending over to cover Jing Lan with the quilt for a while, then she straightened up and clapped her hands, saying: "If you catch a cold and get sick, you will still have to spend my money to see a doctor for you... "

The expression on Jing Lan's face became a little weird, she stared at Shen Wan, wondering if this jade-like beautiful woman in front of her was sick, or mentally divided.Obviously she was the one who caught herself, regarded herself as a rice thief, and locked herself up.However, the closed place was newly furnished, and the snacks and teas she ate were all high-quality goods. In the end, she accidentally fell asleep, and she even came in to cover herself with a quilt.Although she said that she covered herself with a quilt because she was afraid that she would spend her money to hire a doctor if she got sick, but Jing Lan felt that this reason did not make sense.Anyway, since she was so kind, why didn't she listen to her own excuse, and still regarded herself as a rice thief?

"Girl, I really... really didn't steal the rice, can you trust me?" Jing Lan pleaded to Shen Wan again without giving up, she held a glimmer of hope, thinking that if Shen Wan really got smart right now, This moment should be the time to soften your heart, maybe it will be useful to seize this fleeting opportunity to beg her right now.

Shen Wan let out an "oh" after listening, she was noncommittal, she just stared at Jing Lan greedily.

There were only the two of them in the room at the moment, she was standing in front of Jing Lan's bed, the two of them were not far apart, it should be said that this was the closest they had been together after Shen Wan's rebirth.She wanted to see the person in front of her who she had missed for 51 years to relieve the pain of lovesickness. As for Jing Lan's explanation, of course she heard it and believed it, but she couldn't agree with it.

Jing Lan was so "scrutinized" by Shen Wan, her heart was beating, she didn't know what Shen Wan meant.

For a moment, the atmosphere in the room was a little stagnant and a little ambiguous.

Fortunately, when Jing Lan was feeling uneasy, the voice of the servant girl An Chun sounded outside: "Girl, Mother Chen is here, she said she has something to report to the girl."

Shen Wan came back to her senses, and realized that she had been staring at Jing Lan just now, and she was embarrassed to see her, so she hurriedly looked away, turned around and said, "I'll come."

After finishing speaking, she walked out without looking at Jing Lan again.

After walking out, Shen Wan sat down at the small black lacquered round table in the outer room, and asked Mama Chen to come and talk back.

Mother Chen walked up to Shen Wan, and told Shen Wan respectfully that half an hour ago, the parents of the three rice thieves came to see Steward Fan, and begged him to be lenient, as long as the three rice thieves were released. , they are willing to compensate the Shen family two thousand catties of rice.Steward Fan asked her to come up and tell Shen Wan whether to accept their compensation and let the three thieves, rice thieves, go.

After hearing this, Shen Wan asked Mother Chen, what would Steward Fan do if she didn't make up her mind and let Butler Fan make up her mind.

Mother Chen said: "Steward Fan said that our Shen family does not lack this money, so we still need to send these three thieves to officials to deter the local villagers and prevent them from coming to our Shen family to steal things."

"You guys are too bullying! Originally, my younger brother and brother Ahu only stole a hundred or twenty catties of rice. My parents and Ahu's parents are willing to pay you two thousand catties of rice. If you still don't let him go, you... ...You are really rich and heartless!" Jing Lan, who heard the conversation between Chen's mother and Shen Wan clearly, rushed out of the room, pointed at Shen Wan and the others with red eyes, and said angrily.
