Li Chuyi felt that the face looked somewhat familiar, so she moved closer to examine it closely.
Magistrate Chen, who was standing next to him, was completely stunned.
The woman in the portrait clearly looks young, but the confidence she exudes in her every move overlaps with someone in Magistrate Chen's memory.
Magistrate Chen had served as magistrate in Jiangnan for so long, so naturally he recognized Shen Qing.
Shen Qing can be described as a prodigy in the Jiangnan business world.
The fact that a woman single-handedly raised the Wen family to become the most prominent merchant family in Jiangnan speaks volumes about her talent.
Magistrate Chen looked up and examined Princess Shen, who appeared somewhat agitated.
She grabbed Li Chuyi, who was standing next to her.
"You said...where have you seen me before?" Princess Shen's lips trembled slightly, without her even realizing it.
For the first time, the usually cautious and meticulous Princess Shen...lost her composure.
Shen Qian, who was standing next to the old Princess Shen, was also unable to contain his excitement.
Did they really find their aunt?
"This is Madam Shen Qing, the eldest wife of the Wen family." Under the ardent gazes of both the old Princess Shen and Shen Qing.
As soon as Magistrate Chen finished speaking...
Tears welled up in Princess Shen's eyes as she reached out and grasped Shen Qian's arm.
"As expected, as expected... I..." Princess Shen was so happy she was at a loss for words.
After so long, she was finally able to see Qingqing'er.
Princess Shen wept with joy. Shen Qian, standing beside her, was in no better shape.
The two were very excited.
Li Chuyi tilted her head slightly. "Oh, no wonder she seemed so familiar. It's Nan Nan's mother. She looks so much like her..."
Li Chuyi looked at the woman in the scroll in front of her and unintentionally uttered a sigh.
"Where is the Wen residence?" After his initial excitement, Shen Qian remembered his business.
Today he insisted on taking his grandmother to see his aunt.
"Are you going to look for Wen Nan's mother?" Li Chuyi raised her eyes, slightly puzzled.
Shen Qian replied, "Of course, thank you, sir."
Shen Qian briefly explained Shen Qing's true identity.
A moment of tranquility.
It was eerily quiet.
Shen Qian also felt that things were not so simple.
Princess Shen probably realized something as well.
“She…died in childbirth four years ago, leaving behind a son and a daughter.” Li Chuyi hesitated for a long time before finally speaking.
Then Princess Shen rolled her eyes and fainted.
...
As usual, Wen Nan first dredged the river bend at the village chief's house, and then introduced lobster seedlings.
After doing all this, Wen Nan looked at the sky and thought it was about time.
She changed her clothes and then went to the county town.
He went to pick up Lu Yanqing as usual.
Wen Nan first went to pick up Wenzhou City, and then took Wenzhou City to the entrance of Lu Yanqing's school.
Wenzhou City students get out of school a little earlier than Lu Yanqing.
Wenzhou City was very obedient and bought him a candied hawthorn. Wenzhou City held Wen Nan's hand and took a bite of it one by one.
His mouth was covered in sugar crumbs.
Lu Yanqing saw Wen Nan as soon as he came out.
Wenzhou City held Wen Nan's hand tightly, refusing to let go even when Lu Yanqing came over.
She looked like she was vying for favor.
Wen Nan waved to Lu Yanqing as he came out.
Lu Yanqing walked over.
It was June, and the weather was getting hot, so they stopped taking the oxcart and mostly walked back.
The mountain air was exceptionally cool. Wen Nan held Wenzhou City in one hand and Lu Yanqing in the other.
Zhang Ruyu coughed, making him seem particularly superfluous, so he went to help Wenzhou City.
It formed a shape with three long and one short sections.
Fortunately, there was no one on the mountain at night, and no one seemed surprised.
If it were to be displayed on the street, it would surely attract the attention of many people.
After dinner.
Wenzhou City started acting up, wanting Wen Nan to tell him a story, and in doing so... he lay down on Lu Yanqing's bed.
Lu Yanqing seemed to have gotten used to it. He sat on the edge of the bed, waiting for Wenzhou City to fall asleep.
Wenzhou City forced his eyelids open, knowing that if he fell asleep, Lu Yanqing would carry him to the next room.
But Wen Nan reached out and pushed Wenzhou City.
“Don’t forget what I told you…” Wen Nan blinked slightly.
Lu Yanqing was filled with questions.
When did they start having little secrets?
He... couldn't even know!
Lu Yanqing lowered his eyelids and asked casually, "What?"
Wenzhou City arrogantly turned its head away and glanced at Wennan.
He gave a mysterious, cold snort.
"I won't tell you, it's a little secret between my sister and me!" Wenzhou City grinned mischievously, his eyes almost disappearing with laughter.
Lu Yanqing "..."
Lu Yanqing sat to the side without moving, but this time Wenzhou City actually went back to his room on his own.
This seemed to surprise even Lu Yanqing.
midnight.
Lu Yanqing lay on the bed, while Wen Nan's breathing gradually became steady beside him.
It was a bit hot, so Wen Nan stopped snuggling in Lu Yanqing's arms.
However, Lu Yanqing was not quite used to it. He picked up a fan and intentionally or unintentionally fanned Wen Nan gently.
“Why was he so well-behaved today? He went back by himself. You…” Lu Yanqing knew that Wenzhou City was unwilling to talk about it.
Then he could naturally inquire from Wen Nan.
A little secret?
Ah, it'll be gone soon.
Wen Nan smiled.
"Do you really want to know?" The woman turned her head, and she and Lu Yanqing looked at each other.
Their eyes met, and the smile in Wen Nan's eyes was so thick it seemed impossible to melt away.
However, Lu Yanqing had a bad feeling.
