n't your fault. If anyone is to blame, it's me. I couldn't even recognize my own daughter, which allowed them to succeed."Moreover, they are cunning and will find ways to get you out of the way. Howev..."Well, it looks quite pleasant. Let's observe for a while. That Wenzhuang Village isn't far from my farm, just ten miles away. It'll be convenient for me to arrange someone to go and inquire about it."

Ripples didn't deny it either.

"Do you think the original body would be attracted to this"

The height of the stone mill is suspicious, can ripples' choice be recognized by its original body

"I didn't say I was going to marry her right now. You're worrying too much. Tell the original body not to rush into denial."

Ripple said softly.

"Alright, be careful yourself."

As soon as the ripples and the mortarstone finished their conversation, there was a "glug" sound. The man in front of them seemed a little embarrassed, while the little girl patted her stomach and said:

"Brother, Yueyue's stomach is rumbling."

"It seems like you're hungry, which is a good thing, proof that the medicine is working."

Liàn Yī unscrupulously took credit for the achievement, then turned to An Hé and instructed him:

"Serve them two bowls of soup and two pieces of bread."

Yes, miss.

An He responded with a sound, then went to ladle the soup.

"Miss, this is too much trouble."

Wen Zhaoming was a little embarrassed, feeling like a relative who came to ask for money.

"Don't worry about anything, just wait until you are full and then we will leave."

Ripple waved her hand, two bowls of soup and two buns wouldn't bankrupt her.

Half an hour later, Lian Ri's carriage set off again. This time, she was inside the carriage, while Wen Zhao Ming held his younger sister and Lao Su sat in front, driving towards Wenjia Village.

Ripple chatted with Wen Zhaoming through the carriage curtains, on and off. Yueyue seemed to be taking a horse-drawn carriage for the first time and was looking around curiously. Because she had taken medicine and eaten a full meal, her spirit was much better now, and she also pricked up her ears to listen to her brother and Miss Su talking.

"Why is Wen Xiaogge out alone with his little sister Where are the elders at home"

Ripple asked curiously.

After all, in this world, women are revered. Unmarried men rarely show their faces before marriage, so her question wasn't out of place.

"Both of my parents have passed away, so only my sister and I rely on each other for support."

Wen Zhaoming lowered his eyes and said.

"Excuse me for being so forward."

"My parents passed away when I was twelve. Fortunately, I still have my sister. Life is a bit harder, but it's not unbearable."

Your sister has been raised very well, but she was sent to school

"The little sister is intelligent and has already been enlightened. She just recently fell ill and took a sick leave."

"Your health is important. It's better to wait until you are well before returning to school. Studying is also hard work."

The ripples continued.

"Miss, you're right."

Wen Zhaoming agreed with this statement very much. His own sister absolutely couldn't get into trouble, otherwise, what awaited him wouldn't be good days.

Another hour passed, and they arrived at Sujiazhuang. Wen Zhaoming politely bid farewell.

"I asked Cuihua to send you back. It's still a bit of a distance from Wengjia Village here."

Ripples said.

"Thank you for your kindness, Miss. But villagers love to spread rumors and it would be inappropriate to tarnish your reputation."

Wen Zhaoming said it implicitly.

"You're right, reputation is important to you men."

With a nod, the ripples gently passed a package of medicinal herbs to the other party:

"Take this medicine bag back home, divide it into three portions, and boil one portion each day for your sister to drink. It's good for her health."

How much silver does this medicine cost

Wen Zhaoming took out money while asking.

"Ripple, I don't really know. Looking at An He, An He honestly replied:"

"Three taels of silver per package."

Wen Zhaoming's hand paused after hearing this. He only had a few taels of silver on him, which was all the family had, and it wasn't nearly enough.

Liàn Yī glanced at An Hé with displeasure. "You really have no sense right now," she said, then turned to Wēn Zhāo Míng with a sweet smile:

"There's no rush to give you the silver. Just wait until you need it, and we'll talk then. You're going to have to live somehow anyway."

"We have remembered Miss Su's kindness and will certainly send the money over once we have saved enough."

Wen Zhaoming pursed his lips, bowed, and then said.

"No rush, no rush, I'm not short on money."

With a confident tone, Lian Ri said.

After seeing Wen Zhaoming and his sister leave, Lianyi also entered the manor.

Since receiving the message, Su Wu had been going to the entrance of the village every day, hoping to see a carriage bearing the Su family's mark. As soon as he saw one approaching, swaying along, he immediately went out to meet it.

"Little Su Wu, the head of this village, welcomes you, Miss."

Su Wu is a sturdy woman, dressed in a brown-red dress, looking very capable.

"

Thank you for your hard work, Su Zhuangtou.

"

Ripples said softly.

"It's not hard, it's what I should be doing."

"You gather all the tenant farmers from the Zhuangzi. Since I'm going to live on the Zhuangzi for three years, I need them to know who the new owner is."

The ripples instructed.

"Yes, little one, I shall go inform them at once. Miss may first go to the courtyard to change her clothes and freshen up."

Su Wu knew this young lady was not easy to fool, and immediately respectfully said.

Let them come an hour later.

"Yes!"

With ripples finally entering the humble courtyard of the farmer's house, although it wasn't as grand as the Su mansion, she was still quite satisfied. She had An He arrange her luggage and tidy up the study, then changed into a new robe, had some snacks, and with two guards, went to meet the tenant farmers.

"Listen up, everyone. This is Su Lianyi, the daughter of our former master. She's also our new mistress. Miss Su will be staying at our manor to observe three years of mourning for the old lady. All of you should be more careful with your work from now on."

Su Wu finished his opening remarks and invited Lian Yi onto the stage.

The ripples first cupped their hands in a gesture of respect before speaking:

“Both of my parents passed away suddenly, and I am heartbroken. I came to the estate seeking a peaceful place to mourn them and pray for their souls. This year, I ask that you only hand over 50% of your harvest. Please remember your mothers' kindness and offer many prayers for her soul.”

"Miss, rest assured, we will certainly remember the kindness of your grandmother, and also yours."

Su Wu was very quick-witted and immediately stepped forward to express his gratitude.

The remaining tenant farmers all bowed and thanked him, their voices varied but sincere, their faces filled with gratitude. Don't underestimate that 10% of the grain; it was worth a fortune in silver.

The ripples nodded in satisfaction, announcing her identity and letting these people recognize their master. Then she turned and went back to the Siheyuan courtyard.

In the following days, Lian Ri practiced copying scriptures every day and focused on maintaining her health. She continued to drink the nourishing soup and practiced martial arts with her two guards, at least learning some self-defense skills.

As the weather started to turn cooler, Lián Yī's ripples donned a thicker robe early on. She had some free time lately and wanted to take a walk in the nearby mountains. Hé Huā came to report that the two siblings from the Wēn family had arrived, bringing with them a young deer.

"Is it a live deer"

Ripple asked with interest.

"It's alive."

The lotus spoke immediately.

"Please have them come in."

"Yes!"

Wen Zhaoming was actually a little nervous, but he didn't want to owe anyone favors. After his younger sister's health had fully recovered, he went into the mountains almost every day before the autumn harvest, wanting to hunt some game to repay Miss Wen's silver.

"Mr. Wen, Miss Wen, please come in!"st two taskmasters, the first became a member of the Minglou's martial arts department. She used her authority to learn about the existence of Yinlou, but before she could delve deeper, she was killed...
