Lin Han's eyes lit up slightly. It was just a wedding gift, and it really wasn't a big deal. These two jade ruyi were just right to be placed in the bridal chamber, and they also had good meaning.
Lin Han accepted it reluctantly: "Thank you, Mr. Qian, for the gift."
"I'll have to ask Lord Lin to take care of me in the future!" Mr. Qian bowed again hurriedly.

When Wanruo woke up, it was already morning. She sat up from the bed in a daze and saw Suyue pushing the door in.
"Miss, are you awake? How could you drink so much if you can't hold your liquor? Yesterday, you were passed out drunk and it was the restaurant's cook who helped bring you back."
Su Yue wrung out a handkerchief and handed it to Wanruo to wipe her face.
Wanruo took the handkerchief, her mind still groggy: "Did I drink too much yesterday?"
"What's wrong with you, girl? You haven't woken up yet at this time?" Su Yue said with a smile.
Wanruo shook her head and wiped her face with a handkerchief, but as soon as the handkerchief touched her lips, she gasped in pain with a hiss.
"Hey, why is your lip broken?"
Wanruo frowned and looked in the mirror. It was really broken: "Maybe I bit it accidentally."
"The young lady is really careless. So is Lin Yizi. He took the young lady out to see the lanterns yesterday, but why didn't he personally send her back?"
Su Yue immediately went to get medicine for Wanruo.
Wanruo gently applied the ointment to the wound, frowning in pain: "He was in a hurry yesterday, so I let him go first."
"No wonder."
Wanruo felt inexplicably irritated and didn't know how to respond.
"Miss, there are people waiting to get medicine in the shop, please wash up quickly." Su Yue said.
Wanruo didn't have time to think about it for a moment. She quickly washed up and went to the shop.
She bought this small courtyard and used it as a shop in the front. Across the courtyard was a row of rooms in the back, which were used as living quarters.
Ajin is now studying in the school in town and goes to school early every morning.
Wanruo opened the door of the shop and saw an old lady waiting outside. "Doctor Qi, why are you opening the shop so late today? I've been waiting for a while."
Wanruo smiled apologetically: "I accidentally overslept, I'm so sorry."
"I want to buy an insect repellent sachet. It's hot these days, and there are a lot of mosquitoes. My little son always comes back covered in rashes after going into the mountains. Your sachet is the only one that works well."
Wanruo took two medicine sachets from the medicine cabinet and handed them to the old lady. She smiled and said, "I'm sorry to have kept you waiting today. I'll give you an extra medicine sachet."
"Oh, that's great." The old lady happily took out ten cents and handed it over.
"Take care." Wanruo took the money and sent the old lady away, feeling a little better.
Lin Han was right, she was really overthinking it and was always suspicious, even though there was clearly nothing wrong and everything was as usual.
A group of children chased and played and ran in from the alley and arrived at the door of Wanruo's drugstore.
"Sister Xiaowei!" A girl ran in happily.
Wanruo was keeping her head down while writing down her accounts. She murmured, "Hmm?"
After Wanruo moved in, she became familiar with the neighbors, and the children also liked to play with her.
"Sister Xiaowei, I'll give you something delicious to eat."
The girl stood on tiptoe and brought a candied fruit to Wanruo's mouth.
Wanruo opened her mouth and took a bite, but paused after taking it in. The candied fruit was sweet but not greasy, and the taste was somewhat familiar.
She asked blankly: "Where did you buy it?"
The little girl held the brown paper bag and smiled happily: "An older brother gave it to me. Look, he gave me a bag!"
Wanruo's face froze, and the hand holding the pen trembled, leaving a mark of ink on the account book.
