Chapter 474 Gift
"Aren't I afraid that you'll pick up a knife and kill Helian Bijun in a rage?" Xie Mubai smiled and pinched the tip of her nose, his eyes full of doting.
This was definitely not something he was overthinking.
Now that Wang Qi's body has mostly recovered, even if Shen Wan knew about this, she would not be too angry.
But Wang Qi was unconscious at the time and his condition was critical. In a fit of rage, this girl would really go to Helian Bijun with a big knife to seek revenge.
Actually, there is nothing wrong with killing Helian Bijun.
What is the prairie rose, the backbone of the Helian family.
In his eyes, the extremely noble lady was no different from a weed. The only thing that worried him was what Xie Lian would think.
"How could I be as impulsive as you say?" Although Shen Wan was smiling, a hint of imperceptible anger flashed across her clear eyes. "But seriously, you did a great job on this matter."
"No matter what your purpose is, as long as Wang Qi is hurt, I will never let Helian Bijun go, even if she is your stepmother!"
In her heart, Wang Qi means a lot.
If it weren't for Helian Changjun's sake, she would probably have cut the prairie rose into pieces.
"Who said she is my stepmother? I don't admit it!" Xie Mubai smiled and reached out to hug her tightly.
City West House.
In the dim light, Helian Bijun lay quietly on a half-worn bed.
Her face was pale, she was emaciated, and her deathly grey eyes were like a pool of stagnant water without a trace of light.
"Did you really do it?" Helian Changjun stared at her and asked.
Helian Bijun smiled sadly.
She didn't answer, but just smiled sadly: "Did Xie Mubai say everything?"
"Is it really you?" Helian Changjun's eyes widened in surprise, and he asked in confusion, "Sister, why did you do this?"
"Chu Wei's character isn't very good, but he's still one of ours after all!"
Helian Bijun's eyes reddened slightly, but she did not answer.
"Is it... really because of that old man?" Helian Changjun asked tentatively.
Helian Bijun didn't say anything.
Seeing that she remained silent, Helian Changjun knew that he had guessed right.
"It's him again!" His face flushed with anger, and he looked like he was really disappointed with his friend. "Sister, please wake up!"
"Amnesia or not, he never liked you!"
"Now that the road is open, I will send someone to prepare carriages and horses and return to the foreign land immediately!"
Helian Bijun shook her head and said stubbornly: "No, I won't leave!"
"Why are you staying here?" Helian Changjun was anxious and reached out to hug her. "If you don't leave now, Chu Wei will come to kill us!"
There is no wall that is impenetrable.
Since Xie Mubai and Shen Wan knew about this, there must be other people who knew about it.
If Chu Wei heard about this, would he let them go easily?
After all, this is Lanyang City, Chu Wei’s territory!
"Then...then can you wait a little longer?" Helian Bijun's eyes were red as she struggled desperately. "Xie Lian came to see me a few days ago. He said he would come again tonight."
Since she fell ill, Xie Lian came every few days.
Sometimes I would bring her some medicine, and sometimes I would sit down and stay with her for a while.
Although it didn't last long, she really missed this feeling.
Even if it means drinking poison to quench her thirst, she would be happy to do it.
Upon hearing this, Helian Changjun was so angry that he almost fainted.
Love brain is really scary. Fortunately, I am "finished" and will not have this kind of trouble again.
Even though he was eager to go home, he still couldn't convince this love-brained sister.
The weather is getting warmer, and the newly planted poplar forests are also showing some green.
In addition, Chen Wan used spiritual spring water to irrigate it from time to time, and the sapling actually grew well!
I believe that it won’t be long before there will be extremely dense poplar forests in the desert.
After learning that Helian Bijun was seriously ill, Shen Wan did not make things difficult for her and led a group of people to open up wasteland and cultivate the land.
Although Lanyang City is small, there are many barren mountains outside the city.
Whether it is fruit trees or grains, just plant them wherever there is a place.
"Young Madam, what about irrigation?" Feng Er asked worriedly, looking at the cultivated land.
There are so many fields on the mountain. If all of them were to be irrigated, even if all the people in Lanyang City lined up to fetch water, it wouldn't be enough.
"That's fine." Shen Wan smiled and pointed to a place not far away. "I asked Hu Dahai to lead people to dig wells and build reservoirs on every hilltop."
"Everyone thinks Lanyang City is short of water, but in reality, it's just that the wells aren't deep enough."
"Feng Da has also installed a waterwheel by the canal. When the time comes, we can irrigate the fields by just stepping on the waterwheel."
Dig wells, build reservoirs, and install water trucks?
Confused, Feng Er looked in the direction of Shen Wan's finger, and saw a stream of extremely clear water slowly flowing along the canal.
Feng Da and Feng San were standing on the waterwheel, both pedaling hard.
It turns out this is possible!
Feng Er looked at it and was so shocked that he couldn't recover for a long time.
As the crops on the mountain grew vigorously, Wang Qi's health improved.
So, the wedding was quickly put on the agenda.
"This is for you." Shen Wan handed over a red envelope with a smile.
Wang Qi took it with a smile.
When I opened it, I found it was the deed to the drug store.
"This is a wedding gift for you." Shen Wan smiled sweetly, "I've discussed this with the prince. You might not be able to use other gifts, so why not just give me a wedding house?"
The pharmacy was located on the back street of the temporary county government office. Although it was not big, it still had several rooms. Not to mention Wang Qi's family of three, even six or seven more people could easily live there.
"Isn't this too expensive?" Wang Qi flatly refused and handed the deed back to her. "I can't accept it."
In fact, the money left by Chu Wei was quite a lot, enough for him to buy several large houses.
However, Wang Qi was a man of high character. He disdained to use the money of corrupt officials because he was afraid of dirtying his hands.
Shen Wan smiled cunningly: "Don't you want to marry your sister-in-law quickly?"
Of course Wang Qi wanted to.
But is it really okay to use my cousin’s money to get married?
He is a man.
It would be fine if he couldn't take good care of his aunt's daughter, but how could he have the nerve to use her money to get married?
"I'll think of another way." Wang Qi thought for a while and said.
“What’s the solution?” Shen Wan couldn’t help but laugh, “Live in Chen Jiu’s backyard, or stay in the post station?”
"Since we're getting married, we naturally need our own private space. Living together is not a good idea after all."
"Do you think that if the young couple keeps a secret at night, everyone will know it the next morning?"
After hearing this, Wang Qi couldn't help but hesitate.
Of course he knew that it was best for newlyweds to have their own private space.
She just wanted him to use the corrupt officials' money to buy a wedding house for herself. What's the difference between him and Chu Wei?
"If you still consider me your sister, then accept me. Besides, you're not taking my things for nothing." Seeing that he was hesitant, Shen Wan stuffed the house deed into Wang Qi's hand. "The prince and I have already discussed that if we have children in the future, they must worship you as their master. You are not allowed to refuse when the time comes!"
Now that things have come to this, Wang Qi can no longer refuse.
Forget it, just take it.
When Shen Wan really has a child in the future, the worst that can happen is that she will teach him all her knowledge of ethics.
"Come on, I'll take you to see it!" Shen Wan pulled Wang Qi's arm and said with a smile, "I've redecorated the house. Do you like it?"
"If you need anything, just let me know, but don't let anything go wrong during the wedding."
Wang Qi didn't want to go.
But after hearing the last sentence, he still followed.
After passing through the backyard of the temporary county government office, the two arrived at the pharmacy.
As soon as I arrived at the pharmacy, I saw Da Niuniang getting medicine.
Shen Wan looked at it and pulled her over directly.
"Come on, sister-in-law, let's see if the room I prepared for you is beautiful?" Shen Wan said with a happy smile.
When Da Niuniang heard this, her face turned red.
Seeing her blush, Wang Qi said to Shen Wan, "Don't bully your sister-in-law!"
"Oh, you're protecting me already?" Shen Wan made a face at him and smiled mischievously, "You don't want me as your sister before we even get married. Then naturally you won't recognize me anymore in the future."
When it comes to talking skills, Wang Qi is absolutely invincible.
But there is no way, because the girl in front of me, who is as cunning and cute as a little fox, is my sister.
Talking and laughing, the three of them came into the room.
It must be said that Shen Wan decorated the wedding room extremely well.
The big red curtain embroidered with mandarin ducks playing in the water, the sturdy and durable mahogany furniture, and even the bronze mirrors for daily use were all prepared.
"Look, is there anything missing?" Wang Qi looked and turned to look at Da Niuniang.
Big Girl's mother blushed and shook her head.
All the necessary furnishings are in place, so what else is missing?
Not to mention that she didn't need it, even if she really did, she would be too embarrassed to ask.
"One thing is still missing!"
Suddenly, a cold male voice came from outside the door.
