Daming female local tyrant
Chapter 63
"Lan'er, what is love?" Shen Wan felt very fresh when she heard this word for the first time.
Jing Lan told her that just liking someone very much is love.
Shen Wan was very satisfied with Jing Lan's explanation, then held Jing Lan's face and said, "I love you too, Lan'er."
He also said that Jing Lan's face was hot to the touch and red upon sight.
"You too." Jing Lan said coquettishly, holding her hands holding her face.
"Really? Then..." Shen Wan let go of her hands holding Jing Lan's face, then sat up, and then pulled Jing Lan up to sit again, "We have to dry it out, otherwise Zhao Siniang will bring food in later and see us like this would be suspicious."
Jing Lan burst out laughing when she heard the words, she asked Shen Wan, what could Zhao Siniang be suspicious of, did she know that such things happen between women and women?
Shen Wan followed with a smile: "Maybe I don't know, maybe I know, after all, it's not uncommon for folk girls to get along with girls. In southern Fujian, there is a custom called Yijie Jinlan, which means that girls and girls get along. It's about worshiping sisters. It’s the same as being a husband and wife. The two women who married Jinlan will never marry and will accompany each other for life.”
After hearing this, Jing Lan said: "That's good, we can be regarded as aboveboard together, even more aboveboard than the young lady and maid as the girl said."
There is a lot of envy in the words.
This made Shen Wan somewhat regret telling about the marriage between the women in southern Fujian and Jinlan, because after Jing Lan knew about it, she began to envy such a way for two women to be together.
But that way, Shen Wan felt that she didn't want it.
Because her surname is Shen, she comes from the Shen family, a prominent Jinling family. Although the old lady punished her to come to Suzhou to suffer, she firmly believes that one day she will return to the Shen family in Jinling.
Most of the women who married Jinlan in southern Fujian were women from common people's families. A woman from a famous family like her couldn't risk damaging the family's reputation to marry a woman in Jinlan.
Besides, the child in her womb will also need a normal environment to grow up when it is born.
Shen Wan hoped that her daughter would be proud of being a member of the Jinling Shen family instead of being a woman with no family to rely on.
Therefore, she decided that making Jing Lan her maidservant was the only way for the two of them to stay together forever.
When she was in the Shen family's other courtyard, she agreed to sign a contract of living with Jing Lan, and promised Jing Lan to restore her status as a good citizen after eight years of slavery. Back to Jinling.
She thought at the time that as long as Jing Lan fell in love with her and became her person in the next eight years, Jing Lan would not want to leave her, so she would not ask to be restored as a good citizen.
On that day, she can sign another death contract with Jing Lan, so that Jing Lan will never be able to leave her.
Shen Wan originally thought that it would take some time for Jing Lan to fall in love with her and be inseparable from her, because after her rebirth, she found that Jing Lan had changed a lot compared to her previous life.Not only to be smarter, but also to be bold and assertive.
Who knew that what Jing Lan hadn't changed was that she had a good impression of her when she first met her in her previous life, and she didn't repel or resist her approach.
Then she took away Jing Lan's first kiss very smoothly, and kissed Jing Lan again, and Jing Lan said that she liked her very much.
Everything was going as she wanted it to.
Shen Wan's goal in life after her rebirth is to be the head of the Shen family, let Jing Lan stay by her side for the rest of her life as a maid, raise her daughter together with her, and live a happy life as a family of three.She felt that this kind of life was worthy of her living a new life.
But Jing Lan's approval of the two women's way of living together is by no means the same as Shen Wan's. She believes that two people who love each other must first be equal, and if they are free, such two people will have a happy love life.
Jing Lan was only 13 years old before she wore it, and she had never been in love before, and her relationship was even blank.
She was attracted by the beautiful Shen Wan, teased by Shen Wan, kissed by Shen Wan, and fell in love with Shen Wan.She thought it was her pure first love, and she was satisfied that such a beautiful woman as Shen Wan doted on her and gave her a wonderful love experience, but she never thought about the future.
One is because she is young and does not think so far, and the other is that she is not sure about her future. What she can only be sure of is that after eight years she will regain her freedom and become a good citizen again. Live a life of abundance.
Eight years later, she has become a good citizen, is there still Shen Wan in her life?she does not know.
One thing she can be sure of is that she absolutely does not want to be a maid forever, even if she loves Shen Wan very much, she is not willing to be a maid without personal freedom forever just to be with her.Therefore, she envied Shen Wan's way of living together in a bright and aboveboard way that the Hokkien girl who married Jinlan said to her.That is closer to her ideal, where two free people of equal status love each other.Because, engraved in her soul is modern people's determination of what kind of love is the purest and easiest to obtain happiness.
Jing Lan, who just fell in love, has not yet thought through what kind of relationship she hopes to establish with Shen Wan in order to obtain the happiness recognized by each other.
Now she just wants to look at Shen Wan, to be with Shen Wan, to be with her all the time, that's all.
"Okay, let's stop talking about this. Lan'er, we have money, and we have a little more money. Let's go to the city today to go shopping in a silk shop and buy some fabrics to make some summer clothes. We haven't made any this year. Where are the clothes?"
"Okay, it's all according to the girl."
The two talked happily for a while, then Zhao Siniang came in with a food box and asked Shen Wan and Jing Lan to go out for dinner.
When Cui Zhu saw Zhao Siniang coming in with a food box, she had already washed her hands and came to the table to help set the meal.
Because there were few people and there were no outsiders, Shen Wan didn't ask Cui Zhu to serve her for dinner, but asked her and Jing Lan to sit down and eat together.
Cui Zhu was also thanks to Jing Lan, because Shen Wan didn't want Jing Lan to stand and wait for her to eat, so she asked her to sit down with Cui Zhu to eat.
Zhao Siniang came in with the food, put the food in the food box, and went out. She said she wanted to eat quickly, so she could go to the town to hire a car for Shen Wan and others.
After Shen Wan had dinner, went to drink two courses of tea, and changed into the clothes she was going out, Zhao Siniang came in and reported that she had hired a carriage, and agreed to rent it for a month, with a monthly fee of three taels of silver.She also said that although this cart costs three taels a month, it is more expensive than those cars that cost two taels a month, but those carts that cost two taels are mule carts, and this is a big carriage with a spacious compartment that can seat four people.
"Three twos, three twos, Alan, let's go." Shen Wan said, and went out first after speaking.
Jing Lan and Cui Zhu followed behind.
This is going to Suzhou City, Shen Wan didn't let Cuizhu follow, she probably listened to Jing Lan's words, she would be very wronged if she always let Cuizhu stand aside.In fact, according to her original intention, she just wanted to take Jing Lan into the city to go to the bank to get the money and then go to the silk shop to buy clothes.
The three masters and servants came to the gate of Shen's old house, and they saw a carriage pulled by a tall bay red horse. The carriage was very spacious, and the three masters and servants sat in it without being crowded.
Jing Lan paid the driver a tael of silver for the car, and said that she would pay the car in three installments a month. He would drive the car to the gate of the Shen family's old house every day and park it there, and then drive back at night.If they want to use the car, they come out to take the car, if they don't use it, the driver just rests.
"Okay!" the coachman agreed, took Jing Lan's money, flicked his whip, and drove the carriage to Suzhou City.
When Shen Wan and the others entered Suzhou City, they first went to find a bank and exchanged 300 taels of silver with silver notes, then took the silver to visit the silk shops in Suzhou City, bought several horses and put them on the carriage to take back.
Jing Lan found that Shen Wan was very good at the texture and price of the fabrics in the silk and satin shop, so she curiously asked her secretly if she often visited the silk and satin shop?
Shen Wan smiled and told her that the main business of the Shen family is silk weaving. She has been familiar with all kinds of clothing materials since she was a child. When she grows up, there are silk factories and satin shops in the dowry. Naturally, she knows the texture and price of these materials very well. .
She said that compared with Jinling, the silks and satins in Suzhou City have richer colors and cheaper prices. It seems that it is not unreasonable for Suzhou's clothing materials to be popular all over the country.
Jing Lan said that she would ask Shen Wan to teach herself more in the future, she was very interested in silk clothing.
Shen Wan said: "If you like these things, you are the right teacher to find me. Besides, now that we are in Suzhou, you are uniquely blessed to learn about silk fabrics. If you learn well here, you will be able to do it all over the world in the future. This is the sale of silk clothing."
When Jing Lan heard this, she was so happy that she was gearing up, and even said that it was great, that she would have to ask Shen Wan to take the trouble to teach her from now on.
Shen Wan touched her head and said: "It's easy to say, easy to say, who else can I teach if I don't teach you?"
Saying so, he even winked at her, the meaning couldn't be more obvious, you are mine, of course I can only teach you.
Jing Lan understood her eyes, felt ashamed, and glared at her.
Shen Wan turned her eyes away and covered her lips with a smile.
The Cui Zhu who was traveling with her was dazzled by the silk and satin clothes that Shen Wan bought, she just went to look at the materials, and didn't notice that Shen Wan and Jing Lan were flirting with each other and saying something meaningful.
Back at the Shen family's old house in Jinhe Town, Jing Lan and Cui Zhu made several trips before they carried in the few pieces of cloth that Shen Wan had bought.
Seeing that Shen Wan had bought so many beautiful clothes, Zhao Siniang was also full of admiration. She asked Jing Lan, can you give her the scraps when the clothes are cut, so that she can use them to make some beautiful purses.
Jing Lan said no problem.
Zhao Siniang was overjoyed, and told Jing Lan that she went to find a few people in the town in the afternoon. They heard that Miss Shen's family wanted to buy someone, and they were all willing to send the most capable and beautiful men and women in their hands. Shen Wan chooses, and they will send someone over tomorrow morning.
As for the price, wait until you bring someone here, and then we'll talk about it after seeing it.
Jing Lan said yes, and said that she would go in and report to the eldest lady that this time the matter of buying the servants and maids was settled, the eldest lady will reward Zhao Siniang, and let her wait.
In fact, Jing Lan didn't have to tell Shen Wan about the reward. Shen Wan said that she didn't need to tell her about things like a few taels of silver. Jing Lan made up her own mind.
After going to the city to exchange the silver at the bank, Shen Wan gave Jing Lan 50 taels of silver and asked her to use it to arrange housework, and if it was not enough, she would ask her for more.
Today I went to the city to exchange 300 taels of silver, and besides spending six taels of silver for silk and satin clothing, I still have 290 taels of silver left.
Shen Wan gave Jinglan 50 taels to arrange housework, and the remaining 240 taels, plus the 15 taels that Jing Lan gave her last time when she became a mink fur coat, a total of 250 nine taels were locked in her inner room. in the trunk.
Went to the city today, Shen Wan was also tired when she came back, she asked Cuizhu to boil water to take a bath without eating much dinner.
When Jing Lan helped her take a bath, she saw that her stomach still didn't bulge, but her breasts seemed to be bigger, making her look even sexier.
Speaking of which, Jing Lan hasn't served Shen Wan to take a bath for a long time. In the past few days after arriving in Suzhou, Shen Wan didn't have the conditions to take a bath at first. Shen Wan just washed her face and feet every day, and fetched water at most to wipe her body.
In the past, when Jing Lan served Shen Wan in the bath, the two had no close relationship, but now that they have a close relationship, Jing Lan finds it more difficult to do this job calmly.
As for Shen Wan, I don't know if she was teasing Jing Lan on purpose, but asked her to scrub her chest and thighs for herself, and asked Jing Lan not to hold the handkerchief, but to scrub with her palms.
The excuse she used was that she hadn't showered for several days, and there was a lot of dirt on her body, and Jing Lan had to rub it off with her hands.
As a result, Jing Lan rubbed hard but didn't get any dirt, but made herself a big red face.
Shen Wan leaned back on the edge of the tub, and especially asked Jing Landuo to rub her chest, which was sweating a lot recently.
Jing Lan really went to rub the space between the two breasts. This was the first time she measured Shen Wan's career line. After the measurement, she found that the altitude was a bit higher.
Hey, I really can't wash it anymore, Jing Lan was irritated.
She stammered and asked Shen Wan if she could go out to get some air, she was out of breath and felt that the room was very hot.
Seeing her pitiful appearance, Shen Wan couldn't help laughing, glanced at her, and said softly: "Let's let you off for now, I won't wash it anymore, come on, wipe it for me, I'll go lie down, you can go out to breathe again .Seeing you like this makes me feel bad too."
Jing Lan said weakly, "Thank you for your understanding, Miss."
Shen Wan burst out laughing, and poked Jing Lan's forehead with her slender jade finger: "You're worthless, forget it, I don't want you to accompany me today, you can go and rest later."
Jing Lan said: "I'm not going to sleep with Cuizhu in the east tip room, I'll just sleep on the Arhat bed in the banquet room in the west room, and sleep alone."
Shen Wan: "Okay."
Jing Lan then wiped Shen Wan's body, brought her clean underwear to change for her, helped her to lie down on the bed, covered her with a thin quilt, and then went out and called Cuizhu to take Shen Wan away. I scooped my bath water into the bucket and poured it out, and then cleaned the water stains in the house.
Before leaving, she lit benzoin in Shen Wan's tent, and then went out to wash her face and feet to sleep.
She really slept on the arhat bed in the Xici room, and what she told Cuizhu was that the girl asked her to stay on duty at night.
Not sleeping next to Shen Wan, nor next to the green bamboo, Jing Lan finally had a good sleep, didn't even have a dream, and slept until dawn.
Woke up the next day, cleaned up, and had breakfast with Shen Wan, then Zhao Siniang came in and told that the matchmaker in the town had brought someone to pick for Shen Wan.
Shen Wan asked Jing Lan and others to set up tables and chairs in the yard, drinking tea while waiting for the matchmaker to bring people in.
Because she knew that the eldest lady of the Shen family wanted to buy someone, and all the people in the town who brought people to sell were matchmakers, and Zhao Siniang had asked for this in advance.
The first person to come in with a dozen or so people was a matchmaker surnamed Jiang.
She brought six young boys and eight young girls, ranging in age from eleven or twelve to sixteen or seventeen, and they were selected according to Zhao Siniang's request yesterday.
Shen Wan asked them to stand in a row, stretch out their hands, then called Jing Lan, and whispered in her ear, "Look at the children's hands first, if the nails are not long, keep the clean ones, and let the rest go out." .”
Jing Lan went up to look at them one by one according to her words, and as a result, more than half of the people were brushed off, leaving only two boys and three girls.
Shen Wan asked these people to open their mouths again, and then called Jing Lan, and asked her to check whether their teeth were neat, keep the neat ones, and leave the uneven ones.
Jing Lan can understand the choice of people with clean nails, but she doesn't understand what it means to have straight teeth.So she quietly asked Shen Wan why she was so picky.Shen Wan said that children with bad teeth often get sick since childhood, and bad teeth will not make them healthy.
After Jing Lan heard this, she was skeptical, but she still followed Shen Wan's instructions and went to look at them one by one, but only one boy and one girl were left.
Shen Wan asked Jiang Yapo to introduce the situation of the two children and how much money they would sell.
Jiang Yapo pointed at the boy with a flattering smile and said: "That baby's surname is Mai. He is 16 years old this year. He also worked as a servant before. His master is a merchant of medicinal materials. The medicinal materials he bought this year capsized on the river. , I couldn’t continue to do it at a loss, so I sold him. This kid can work and is honest. I bought him for ten taels of silver, and now I sell it to the eldest lady. A long-term buyer."
Shen Wan nodded, then pointed at the girl and asked, "What about her?"
Jiang Yapo said: "The girl was only 11 years old, and her mother died at home. His father sold her because he was short of money to remarry. According to her own words, she can cook and do needlework. I bought her for a lot of money." Eight taels of silver, and don't make any money to sell her to the girl."
After hearing this, Shen Wan was very happy, and asked Jing Lan to take 18 taels of silver, bought the two people picked out by Jing Lan, wrote the contract on the spot, pressed her fingerprints, and paid the silver.
Jiang Yapo took the silver and backed out with a smile on her face.
Only bought two and there was still two left, Shen Wan asked Zhao Siniang to ask the matchmaker who was waiting outside to bring someone in.
Nine people came in this time, but only a 12-year-old girl was selected, and she was also bought for eight taels of silver.
Fortunately, it was three prostitutes who brought people here to choose for Shen Wan this time, and among the seven people brought by the last prostitute, a 17-year-old boy was selected.
It cost Shen Wan 36 taels of silver to buy these four people, plus the purchase of a sedan chair, several beds, a few cabinets, and tents, clothes and bedding for them, etc., a total of 45 taels of silver was spent.
Shen Wan called these children to her and gave them names.
Two servants, one named Ping An and the other Ping Fu.One of the two servant girls is called Jijie and the other is called Baiju.
She let Ping An and Ping Fu live in the second entrance, and she will practice carrying the sedan chair tomorrow, and guard the second entrance door. If outsiders come, they need to report to the third entrance door.
The third entrance door to the yard must be closed no matter day or night. One of the jobs of Ji Jiao and Bai Ju is to guard the third entrance door. Except for Zhao Siniang, outsiders must report to Shen Wan and Jing Lan when they come in. If they are not in , no one is allowed in.
The author has something to say: This is really a challenge! (⊙﹏⊙)
Thank you GN for leaving comments and voting for support.
Jing Lan told her that just liking someone very much is love.
Shen Wan was very satisfied with Jing Lan's explanation, then held Jing Lan's face and said, "I love you too, Lan'er."
He also said that Jing Lan's face was hot to the touch and red upon sight.
"You too." Jing Lan said coquettishly, holding her hands holding her face.
"Really? Then..." Shen Wan let go of her hands holding Jing Lan's face, then sat up, and then pulled Jing Lan up to sit again, "We have to dry it out, otherwise Zhao Siniang will bring food in later and see us like this would be suspicious."
Jing Lan burst out laughing when she heard the words, she asked Shen Wan, what could Zhao Siniang be suspicious of, did she know that such things happen between women and women?
Shen Wan followed with a smile: "Maybe I don't know, maybe I know, after all, it's not uncommon for folk girls to get along with girls. In southern Fujian, there is a custom called Yijie Jinlan, which means that girls and girls get along. It's about worshiping sisters. It’s the same as being a husband and wife.

After hearing this, Jing Lan said: "That's good, we can be regarded as aboveboard together, even more aboveboard than the young lady and maid as the girl said."
There is a lot of envy in the words.

Now she just wants to look at Shen Wan, to be with Shen Wan, to be with her all the time, that's all.
"Okay, let's stop talking about this. Lan'er, we have money, and we have a little more money. Let's go to the city today to go shopping in a silk shop and buy some fabrics to make some summer clothes. We haven't made any this year. Where are the clothes?"
"Okay, it's all according to the girl."
The two talked happily for a while, then Zhao Siniang came in with a food box and asked Shen Wan and Jing Lan to go out for dinner.

Speaking of which, Jing Lan hasn't served Shen Wan to take a bath for a long time. In the past few days after arriving in Suzhou, Shen Wan didn't have the conditions to take a bath at first. Shen Wan just washed her face and feet every day, and fetched water at most to wipe her body.
In the past, when Jing Lan served Shen Wan in the bath, the two had no close relationship, but now that they have a close relationship, Jing Lan finds it more difficult to do this job calmly.
As for Shen Wan, I don't know if she was teasing Jing Lan on purpose, but asked her to scrub her chest and thighs for herself, and asked Jing Lan not to hold the handkerchief, but to scrub with her palms.
The excuse she used was that she hadn't showered for several days, and there was a lot of dirt on her body, and Jing Lan had to rub it off with her hands.
As a result, Jing Lan rubbed hard but didn't get any dirt, but made herself a big red face.
Shen Wan leaned back on the edge of the tub, and especially asked Jing Landuo to rub her chest, which was sweating a lot recently.
Jing Lan really went to rub the space between the two breasts. This was the first time she measured Shen Wan's career line. After the measurement, she found that the altitude was a bit higher.
Hey, I really can't wash it anymore, Jing Lan was irritated.
She stammered and asked Shen Wan if she could go out to get some air, she was out of breath and felt that the room was very hot.
Seeing her pitiful appearance, Shen Wan couldn't help laughing, glanced at her, and said softly: "Let's let you off for now, I won't wash it anymore, come on, wipe it for me, I'll go lie down, you can go out to breathe again .Seeing you like this makes me feel bad too."
Jing Lan said weakly, "Thank you for your understanding, Miss."
Shen Wan burst out laughing, and poked Jing Lan's forehead with her slender jade finger: "You're worthless, forget it, I don't want you to accompany me today, you can go and rest later."
Jing Lan said: "I'm not going to sleep with Cuizhu in the east tip room, I'll just sleep on the Arhat bed in the banquet room in the west room, and sleep alone."
Shen Wan: "Okay."
Jing Lan then wiped Shen Wan's body, brought her clean underwear to change for her, helped her to lie down on the bed, covered her with a thin quilt, and then went out and called Cuizhu to take Shen Wan away. I scooped my bath water into the bucket and poured it out, and then cleaned the water stains in the house.
Before leaving, she lit benzoin in Shen Wan's tent, and then went out to wash her face and feet to sleep.
She really slept on the arhat bed in the Xici room, and what she told Cuizhu was that the girl asked her to stay on duty at night.
Not sleeping next to Shen Wan, nor next to the green bamboo, Jing Lan finally had a good sleep, didn't even have a dream, and slept until dawn.
Woke up the next day, cleaned up, and had breakfast with Shen Wan, then Zhao Siniang came in and told that the matchmaker in the town had brought someone to pick for Shen Wan.
Shen Wan asked Jing Lan and others to set up tables and chairs in the yard, drinking tea while waiting for the matchmaker to bring people in.
Because she knew that the eldest lady of the Shen family wanted to buy someone, and all the people in the town who brought people to sell were matchmakers, and Zhao Siniang had asked for this in advance.
The first person to come in with a dozen or so people was a matchmaker surnamed Jiang.
She brought six young boys and eight young girls, ranging in age from eleven or twelve to sixteen or seventeen, and they were selected according to Zhao Siniang's request yesterday.
Shen Wan asked them to stand in a row, stretch out their hands, then called Jing Lan, and whispered in her ear, "Look at the children's hands first, if the nails are not long, keep the clean ones, and let the rest go out." .”
Jing Lan went up to look at them one by one according to her words, and as a result, more than half of the people were brushed off, leaving only two boys and three girls.
Shen Wan asked these people to open their mouths again, and then called Jing Lan, and asked her to check whether their teeth were neat, keep the neat ones, and leave the uneven ones.
Jing Lan can understand the choice of people with clean nails, but she doesn't understand what it means to have straight teeth.So she quietly asked Shen Wan why she was so picky.Shen Wan said that children with bad teeth often get sick since childhood, and bad teeth will not make them healthy.
After Jing Lan heard this, she was skeptical, but she still followed Shen Wan's instructions and went to look at them one by one, but only one boy and one girl were left.
Shen Wan asked Jiang Yapo to introduce the situation of the two children and how much money they would sell.
Jiang Yapo pointed at the boy with a flattering smile and said: "That baby's surname is Mai. He is 16 years old this year. He also worked as a servant before. His master is a merchant of medicinal materials. The medicinal materials he bought this year capsized on the river. , I couldn’t continue to do it at a loss, so I sold him. This kid can work and is honest. I bought him for ten taels of silver, and now I sell it to the eldest lady. A long-term buyer."
Shen Wan nodded, then pointed at the girl and asked, "What about her?"
Jiang Yapo said: "The girl was only 11 years old, and her mother died at home. His father sold her because he was short of money to remarry. According to her own words, she can cook and do needlework. I bought her for a lot of money." Eight taels of silver, and don't make any money to sell her to the girl."
After hearing this, Shen Wan was very happy, and asked Jing Lan to take 18 taels of silver, bought the two people picked out by Jing Lan, wrote the contract on the spot, pressed her fingerprints, and paid the silver.
Jiang Yapo took the silver and backed out with a smile on her face.
Only bought two and there was still two left, Shen Wan asked Zhao Siniang to ask the matchmaker who was waiting outside to bring someone in.
Nine people came in this time, but only a 12-year-old girl was selected, and she was also bought for eight taels of silver.
Fortunately, it was three prostitutes who brought people here to choose for Shen Wan this time, and among the seven people brought by the last prostitute, a 17-year-old boy was selected.
It cost Shen Wan 36 taels of silver to buy these four people, plus the purchase of a sedan chair, several beds, a few cabinets, and tents, clothes and bedding for them, etc., a total of 45 taels of silver was spent.
Shen Wan called these children to her and gave them names.
Two servants, one named Ping An and the other Ping Fu.One of the two servant girls is called Jijie and the other is called Baiju.
She let Ping An and Ping Fu live in the second entrance, and she will practice carrying the sedan chair tomorrow, and guard the second entrance door. If outsiders come, they need to report to the third entrance door.
The third entrance door to the yard must be closed no matter day or night. One of the jobs of Ji Jiao and Bai Ju is to guard the third entrance door. Except for Zhao Siniang, outsiders must report to Shen Wan and Jing Lan when they come in. If they are not in , no one is allowed in.
