They waited for half an hour before the guard returned with An Yong and a few others. An Yong was relieved to see that they were not seriously injured.
An Ning saw An Yong coming over and said, "Brother, why are you here? Where is Sister Wan'er?"
An Yong smiled and said, "I won't feel at ease unless I see you safe with my own eyes. Wan'er thinks the same as I do, so she asked me to come along and see for myself."
An Ning nodded, and the few of them didn't stay long, and went down the mountain with the prey.
When she returned to the manor, she saw Yin Wan'er looking anxiously at the door. She was relieved to see An Ning and the others returned safely. She held up the hem of her skirt and ran towards An Ning in small steps. She looked her up and down carefully and found no injuries. Then she said, "Sister An, I was scared to death when the guard came back to deliver the message just now. Fortunately, you are okay."
An Ning patted Yin Wan'er's hand soothingly and said, "Sister Yin, don't worry, I'm fine. Come over and see the deer I shot. I'll make you something delicious later." Then he pulled Yin Wan'er over to the deer.
Yin Wan'er didn't scream in fear like other ladies did when they saw the bloody scene. Instead, she looked at the bloody prey with interest and said, "Can you give me this deerskin? I want to make a pair of deerskin boots."
An Ning nodded and said, "No problem, I'll have my eldest brother send it to you after it's done."
Seeing that the two were chatting animatedly, the other people did not come over to join in the fun. The Duke of England thought that tigers were rare and full of treasures, so he said to An Dashan, "Uncle An, I will borrow this tiger to offer to you. You can take it back!"
An Dashan waved his hand and said, "This tiger is full of treasures. No one in my family knows how to deal with it. It will all be wasted. You should take it back!"
The Duke of England nodded and said, "I didn't think of this. I'll send someone to take care of it and send it to you."
An Dashan said, "Then I won't be polite with you. It's just that there are a lot of good things on this tiger. When the time comes, our two families will each take half. Don't refuse, otherwise I won't even take half."
Seeing this, the Duke of England could only nod and said, "Okay, I'll send someone back right away." Then he turned around to arrange other things.
There happened to be someone on the farm who knew how to handle game, so the British official sent someone to handle the three deer, and then instructed the farm's cook to set up a grill in the apricot blossom forest. Roasting venison in the apricot blossom forest had a unique flavor.
An Ning also showed off her skills and made braised venison stewed with potatoes, stir-fried venison, venison casserole, venison hotpot, and roasted venison, which amounted to a full venison feast.
Everyone ate heartily, even Yin Wan'er ate a lot of venison. She covered her mouth and burped quietly, saying to An Ning, "I didn't expect Sister An to have such good cooking skills. I'm so full."
An Ning felt that Yin Wan'er only tasted a few bites of each dish, so how could she be so full? Didn't she see that the others had just started eating?
But then he thought that Yin Wan'er was a lady from a wealthy family, so it was understandable, so he said, "Sister Wan'er, wait for me, I'll get you some digestion pills." Then he turned back to the house, took out a few stomach-strengthening and digestion-promoting pills from the space and put them in a porcelain bottle. Then he walked out of the house and handed them to Yin Wan'er.
Yin Wan'er didn't hesitate to pour out a few pills from the porcelain bottle and put them into her mouth. Unexpectedly, the pills tasted sour and sweet and were quite delicious.
She handed the remaining pills to her personal maid Xiaolian and said, "Xiaolian, keep these pills and take them next time when you have more to eat." Xiaolian quickly agreed and put the medicine bottle away.
After eating, Yin Wan'er just watched the others eat. When she saw An Ning eating venison bite after bite, she was stunned. She really didn't expect that An Ning, who looked so thin, could eat so much.
After finishing the meal, several people returned to the city. In the car, Yin Wan'er said reluctantly: "This day has passed too quickly. I haven't even had enough fun yet, and I have to go home."
An Ning smiled and said, "It's late today. It will be time for spring ploughing in a while. I'll take you to our farm and show you how they grow crops."
Yin Wan'er felt a little embarrassed by the phrase "my own farm" and said, "Okay, don't forget when the time comes. I'll be waiting for you at home."
An Ning nodded and said, "Don't worry! I will never forget you."
The carriage finally returned to the city after a long journey. The few of them first returned to the An family. Yin Wan'er and Gao greeted each other and talked for a while before returning home under the escort of An Yong. They brought a processed deer with them when they returned home.
Because they had eaten a whole deer at the farm, there were still two deer left. Originally, they should have taken one deer with them when Duke Ying left, but Duke Ying said he didn't want anything, so the remaining two deer were left at the An family. An Dashan and An Ning decided to take one with them for Yin Wan'er.
Yin Wan'er was very happy, not because she was attracted by the little thing, but because she liked the feeling of being valued.
When An Yong sent Yin Wan'er home, Lord Yin was also at home. The two talked for a while before An Yong said goodbye and left. Lord Yin nodded with satisfaction as he watched An Yong leave, and said to his daughter beside him: "This An Yong is someone you can trust, and the An family is kind to people, so Dad is relieved."
Yin Wan'er also nodded and deliberately said, "This is all thanks to mother. If it weren't for mother, father wouldn't have let go so easily." As soon as these words came out, the governor's wife next to her was so angry that she wanted to curse. This was just shooting herself in the foot. However, no matter how angry she was, she didn't dare to get angry in front of Lord Yin. She could only force a smile and said, "I have long said that An Yong is not an ordinary person. He will be successful sooner or later. Wan'er can be said to have met a good man."
Yin Wan'er smiled and said, "Thank you, mother."
The governor's mansion was turbulent, but the An family was enjoying themselves. After An Yong sent Yin Wan'er away, An Dashan ordered the servants in the mansion to send half a deer to Zheng Rong's mansion. When Zheng Rong heard that An Dashan had killed a big tiger today, the couple followed the servant to the An family.
Seeing Zheng Rong coming, An Dashan hurriedly said to An Ning, "Ningning, bring another portion of that venison hotpot. Today, I want to get drunk with your Uncle Zheng."
An Ning nodded and went to the kitchen. With the help of the cook, she prepared the hot pot in less than fifteen minutes. Several people sat at the table, talking and drinking. It was very lively.
