Yan Xin said a few words and then withdrew.

There were many people around Zhang Shuai taking care of him. Zhang Nanshu sat with him for a while. She saw that Zhang Shuai was drowsy and about to fall asleep, so she left.

"...How many days does my father have left?" she asked.

Yan Xin: "I'm afraid, there aren't many days left, not more than a month."

Other doctors must have told the Zhang brothers and sisters this.

Zhang Nanshu sighed softly.

Yan Xin said nothing more to her.

In the evening, Zhang Nanshu insisted on rubbing Yanxin's bed. The two of them didn't sleep much last night, so they chatted for a while and fell asleep.

At dawn the next day, Yan Xin woke up thirsty and Zhang Nanshu was also full from sleep.

Three o'clock in the morning.

The two drank water, turned on a small lamp, and leaned on the bedside to chat.

They always have endless things to say.

"You used to study all day long and planned to study abroad. If your father went there, how would you plan?" Yan Xin asked her.

Zhang Nanshu: "You want to ask, what did my father leave for me?"

"Yes. Your two brothers seem to want to drag you into the game. You must have bargaining chips, and you are not a pitiful little being pinched." Yan Xin said.

Zhang Nanshu's eyes gradually turned red.

After a long while, she said: "Dad left me a city and an army of 100,000 people. After I get married, my husband will take care of it. There is an army, as well as coal mines and iron mines."

Yan Xin's heart tightened: "Where are your two brothers?"

"It's three-thirds of the family fortune. What I get is only 10% less than them. If you win over me, you have a great chance of winning." Zhang Nanshu said.

Tears flowed down her face, "When I went to Yicheng, I complained: Dad loves me, should he give me the family fortune or the army?

Now that my father is dying, he has left both to me. He chose Sun Mu to be my husband and the Sun family to be my backing. "

Yan Xin gave her a kerchief.

Zhang Nanshu covered her face: "I understand Governor Jing now. I used to say that he was so incompetent that he could only be a small squad leader.

The family fortune falls on oneself, and every step may be a trap. It is better to be hesitant than to be reckless. Because the chips are too big and I can’t afford to lose. "

Yan Xin gently held her shoulders.

"Your second brother wants you to help him." Yan Xin said.

Zhang Nanshu: "That's what he meant."

"Didn't he and your eldest brother have a good relationship before? Why did it suddenly become like this?"

"In the two years since I went to Yicheng, their differences have become more and more serious. The second brother's fiancée passed away not long before he got married, and she had something to do with the sister-in-law's brother." Zhang Nanshu said, wiping her tears.

Yan Xin: "Is there still this grudge?"

"I don't understand the specifics," Zhang Nanshu said. "Not long after I came back, my father became ill. Everything will change in the future."

Yan Xin sighed.

Zhang Nanshu asked Yan Xin again how the Jing family was doing.

Yan Xin also told her one by one.

When she heard that Jing Zhonglin was dead, Zhang Nanshu praised Yanxin for doing a good job.

They also talked about the glass jade bracelet.

"...I also have the best glass jade bracelets, only two of them." Zhang Nanshu said, "It's a pity for the second young lady."

Zhang Nanshu thought of herself again from the perspective of marriage.

She said to Yan Xin, "I'll call Sun Mu out in the afternoon and let's go drink coffee. You meet him."

"Okay." Yan Xin said, "Do you like him?"

"If I'm talking about an ordinary friend, I don't hate him; if it's the same kind of relationship between you and Tie Liaoda, no. He doesn't have any feelings for me, and I don't have any feelings for him," Zhang Nanshu said.

Then he said, "But, I don't expect that from you two."

The two chatted until about six o'clock in the morning and then went back to sleep.

In the morning, Zhang Nanshu was at Zhang Shuai's bedside; Yan Xin and Bai Shuang arranged their luggage.

Yan Xin made a list and asked Bai Shuang to go shopping.

For daily use, Zhang Nanshu certainly cannot provide everything. Zhang Nanshu didn't mind, but the servants around her would murmur.

Yan Xin not only couldn't use theirs, but also had to give her money so that these servants wouldn't look down on Yan Xin and neglect her.

"Miss, how long will we stay?" Bai Shuang asked.

Yan Xin thought of the words of the second young master of the Zhang family.

If Jing Yuanzhao returns to Beicheng, where will Qibele place him?

If he comes back, Yan Xin won't need to go to Dongyang.

Of course, she can't return to Yicheng for the time being, as the warlord's knot has not yet been resolved.

"I hope to stay here for less time." Yan Xin said, "You can take a look around to see if there is any suitable house. Pick a few places first, and I will take a look later."

She had accumulated a lot of money over the years, and the warlord gave her a large amount before leaving. Yan Xin and Bai Shuang left with a huge amount of money.

Part of the money was deposited in a bank opened by the British in Tianjin, and part of it was kept on his person in preparation for buying a house.

Bai Shuang said yes.

In the afternoon, Yan Xin and Zhang Nanshu went out.

The coffee shop is on the street not far from Shuai Mansion. It is decorated magnificently, with a very high roof and hanging crystal lanterns that look like ice waterfalls.

A young man was sitting by the window. When he saw Yan Xin and Zhang Nanshu, he stood up and waved.

"Nanshu." He said.

He wore a light blue shirt, dark trousers, and his sideburns were neatly trimmed. He has deep eyes, extremely handsome features, and lips that are slightly redder than those of ordinary men, but his skin is too white to look out of place.

Yan Xin was slightly stunned.

"Is he too handsome?" Yan Xin asked herself.

Zhang Nanshu's husband wanted to take over her city and army for her. The man in front of me is extremely handsome, with a beauty that can rival Sheng Yuanshan. Is he really suitable to lead an army?

What did Zhang Shuai think?

Yan Xin's doubts were hidden in her heart and not shown on her face, but Zhang Nanshu stopped in her tracks.

She chose another seat and did not walk over.

Yan Xin:?

Zhang Nanshu frowned slightly: "It's a stick that stirs shit, it's annoying."

Yan Xin: "...Isn't he Sun Mu?"

Zhang Nanshu looked at her in surprise: "Do you think he is Sun Mu?"

Yan Xin: "..."

understood.

It wasn't Yan Xin's fault, but the way the man stood up to say hello was so familiar that Yan Xin naturally thought he was waiting for them.

Zhang Nanshu pulled Yan Xin to sit down, and the man came over with a strong smile, and the light of the crystal lamp fell into his eyes, filled with broken light.

"Nan Shu, come and sit with us." He said with a smile.

Zhang Nanshu: "Why should I sit with you? I'm waiting for my friend."

"The table over there is big enough to sit on. I only have one friend," he said.

"Yin Tangheng, are you so proud? Go away and don't disturb us." Zhang Nanshu said coldly.

The young man did not leave, but sat down opposite.

Zhang Nanshu wanted to call the adjutant to chase him away, but Yin Tangheng didn't take it seriously: "It's a rare encounter. Let's go have dinner together later?"

"Master Yin, please move over," Zhang Nanshu's adjutant said.

Zhang Nanshu didn't look at him, with suppressed anger on her face.

Yan Xin saw this and looked at the man again.

The man immediately seized the opportunity and smiled at Yan Xin: "Miss, would you like to have dinner with me?"

Yan Xin: "Sorry, I'm a guest."

It took the adjutant a long while to drive the man away.

"His surname is Yin? Your sister-in-law is also surnamed Yin." Yan Xin said.

"That's her brother." Zhang Nanshu said, "If it weren't for this connection, I would have asked the adjutant to shoot him."

He looked at his watch again, "We arrived half an hour early, and Sun Mu hasn't come yet."
