Because the journey was not particularly far, they soon arrived at Shen Yan's door. He patted Lu Wan's hand gently, motioning her to relax, before getting off the carriage. Lu Wan followed closely behind him, and the two went to the hall together.
"Yan'er, you're back!" A woman who looked dignified and elegant came from the backyard and greeted Chen Yan warmly. She just glanced at Lu Wan and ignored him, as if she didn't see him.
Shen Yan's clothes fluttered as he respectfully bowed to the visitor and greeted him, "Mother." The visitor was Shen Yan's mother.
Lu Wan also stepped behind him and saluted in a neither humble nor arrogant manner, saying, "Madam." She had no intention of moving closer.
Mother Shen sat in the first seat, looking at her outstanding son and nodded with satisfaction, but when she turned her eyes and saw Lu Wan behind her, her gentle gaze turned sharp. Although Shen Yan was away, he would still send a letter home every once in a while, so Shen's mother had long known the wife her son had chosen for him. To be honest, she was not satisfied, and the reason was naturally that her status was too low. She always thought that her son was the best, so how could she think that a mere peasant girl was worthy of her son?

She emphasized the word "looks", meaning that she used her beauty to please men and was not worthy of being in the upper class. She was only fit to be a concubine. After all, nowadays it is said that one should marry a virtuous wife.
Before Lu Wan opened her mouth, she heard Shen Yanwen smile and help her out: "This is the wife I chose, so of course she has more than just good looks." This time, Shen's mother didn't dare to say anything more, otherwise wouldn't she be saying that her son didn't know how to judge people?
Mr. Shen was also surprised that Shen Yan fell in love with Lu Wan. He didn't expect that a mistake in the past would bring the two together. Lu Wan was also filled with emotion as he looked at Mr. Shen who was sitting on the seat. Not long ago they were two teams that were almost on the verge of a fight, but now they were sitting together and talking peacefully. Ordinary people would naturally not believe it.
Mr. Shen is also open-minded. As long as the woman Shen Yan likes is innocent, it will be fine. The elderly should not interfere too much. He had long been a little curious about this so-called Divine Doctor Lu, but she was just a little girl. It’s not as magical as those people say. But later on, I saw that Lu Wan's attitude towards people was no different from that of an adult, and she also had the temperament of a lady from a noble family.
