Shen Wan didn't know whether his cousin personally went to Mianzhou to get medicinal materials in his previous life, but in this life, if his cousin went to Mianzhou personally, it would be absolutely foolproof.

Shen Wan was filled with gratitude to her cousin.

Soon Mr. Yun and Mr. Yun came back. Yun Qi was not here, so they could only accompany Xie Jingyan as the elder.

After Xie Jingyan left, Shen Wan chatted with Mrs. Yun and the others to relieve their boredom.

While chatting, Mrs. Yun remembered something and asked Shen Wan, "Will the Pingyang Marquis Mansion hold a birthday banquet for the old lady this year?"

The Yun family and the Pingyang Marquis Mansion are in-laws. When the old lady celebrates her birthday, no matter whether it is a big or small event, the Yun family's birthday gift is definitely indispensable.

But if it is a big event, there must be a big gift. There are a lot of guests, and the Yun family and the old lady cannot be offended. But if it is a small event, just a simple fun with relatives and friends, the birthday gift does not need to be so ostentatious.

A few months ago, Mrs. Yun went to Pingyang Marquis Mansion and heard from the second wife that she wanted to have a grand party. However, a few days ago, Shen Yuan and Shen Ying got married on the same day, which was a joyful and lively event. Generally, they would not hold big banquets in succession, at least. It also takes three to five months, and it is so intensive that it will inevitably attract people's attention and make people suspect that the Pingyang Marquis Mansion is taking advantage of the opportunity to make money.

The Yun family is so concerned about the old lady's birthday that Shen Wan has nothing to say. It's too late to prepare birthday gifts after receiving the invitation. Are they so anxious?

The Yun family regards the Pingyang Marquis Mansion as their in-laws, but except for her father and her eldest brother, everyone in the Pingyang Marquis Mansion regards the Yun family as their scapegoat.

Shen Wan was tired and panicked, and said, "My second sister and I have just gotten married, and my third sister will leave the court soon. Grandma's birthday party is in the middle, so it won't be a big event."

Yun Rui couldn't help but asked curiously, "Then the eldest young master of the Wu family is a cock-fighting and dog-walking man. Pingyang Marquis Mansion should know better than others. Why did they promise Miss Shen to him?"

She has been curious about this for a long time.

The Yun family did not know that Young Master Zhao had bad conduct and had just married their daughter. The Marquis of Pingyang still married their daughter after knowing all about it, which Yun Rui did not understand.

Shen Wan motioned Yun Rui to come over and muttered a few words in a low voice. Yun Rui's eyes widened with a look of disbelief.

Shen Wan only told Yun Rui, but others could guess something from Yun Rui's expression. Something must have happened and she had to get married.

Since the birthday banquet is not a big one, the birthday gifts are ready. The Yun family's business is spread all over Dachu, and there are many welcomes and gifts. But the most difficult gift to give has to be from the Pingyang Marquis Mansion, which cannot be given. Flattery, lowering the Yun family's attitude, and letting the old lady of Pingyang Hou Mansion know that the Yun family respects her. In short, what Mrs. Yun is most afraid of is the gift she is preparing to give to Pingyang Hou Mansion.

However, when Mrs. Yun Da mentioned that the old lady was celebrating her birthday, it reminded Shen Wan that the old lady's birthday was coming soon and she had already ruined the 100-year-old painting. She had not yet decided what to give to the old lady.

She had to think carefully about what she could give without spending any money, and no one would be able to find fault with it.

After staying in the house for a while, Yun Mo and Yun Rui took Shen Wan to the garden to enjoy the flowers. They played in the garden for half an hour before going back. When they went back, they heard the maid telling Mrs. Yun, "The old man has returned." I’m at home now, and I’m playing chess with Prince Ling in the study at the moment.”

When it was time for lunch, Xie Jingyan, Mrs. Yun and the others came back.

Old Master Yun was smiling all over his face, and Mrs. Yun also had a smile on her face when she saw it. "So happy, it seems that this chess game was played happily."

Shen Wan asked, "Did grandfather win or lose?"

Old Master Yun smiled and said, "Grandpa is old, how can he be the opponent of King Ling?"

Madam Yun said, "Twenty years ago, you were no match for Marquis Pingyang."

Mr. Yun, "..."

Seeing the confused look on Old Mrs. Yun's face, everyone in the room was suppressing laughter.

Shen Wan walked to Xie Jingyan and whispered, "You even gave in to my eldest brother, why didn't you let in my grandfather?"

Xie Jingyan replied in a low voice, "I conceded the chess piece, but I didn't let your grandfather win."

Shen Du was a little older than him, and it was okay for him to lose. Old Mrs. Yun was already old, so it would be too bad of him to lose. Moreover, Old Mrs. Yun's temper made him unhappy.

Shen Wan bent over, and the two of them whispered, which in the eyes of others was like biting each other's ears. They were newlyweds, honey mixed with oil, and they couldn't finish talking after they were separated for a while.

When Shen Wan straightened up, she saw everyone's eyes smiling but saying nothing. Although she knew that was not the case, Shen Wan's face still turned red.

When the meal was served, Shen Wan said to Xie Jingyan, "Don't bring me any food for a while."

She didn't want to be teased, not even with her eyes. She couldn't stand it.

Xie Jingyan looked at Shen Wan, raised his eyebrows and said, "What did you say?"

Shen Wan wanted to repeat it, but there were people around him, so he had no choice but to give up.

When the table was served, Xie Jingyan put the vegetables into Wan Wan's bowl, attracting everyone's attention.

Shen Wan wanted to throw Xie Jingyan out of the window and told him to stop picking up vegetables, but he picked up more.

Seeing Shen Wan looking at him, Xie Jingyan said, "Didn't you ask me to pick up some food for you?"

Ahhhhh!

She said no food is allowed!

Shen Wan's face was on fire. From the corner of her eye, she saw Xie Jingyan's raised lips, and Shen Wan knew that this bastard did it on purpose.

Forget it at the Pingyang Marquis Mansion. Not only would her father be happy, but it would also make Shen Ying and Xie Jingyin angry, but there was no need for it at the Yun family.

It was Xie Jingyan who had picked up the food for her. Shen Wan couldn't explain why she didn't pick it up for him. Shen Wan's eyes swept across the table and stopped on the mushrooms and vegetables. The corner of Shen Wan's mouth curled up, and she picked up two chopsticks and put them in Xie Jingyan's bowl, "Mr. , eat more.”

When Old Master Yun saw it, he said, "Which green vegetables are delicious? Give more meat to Prince Ling."

Shen Wan said, "Grandpa, he likes to eat vegetables the most."

Mrs. Yun immediately asked the maid to move the green vegetables in front of Xie Jingyan so that he could pick them up more easily.

Xie Jingyan, "..."

He turned his head and saw Shen Wan's face, which was extremely lively.

Xie Jingyan's heart moved, he held Shen Wan's hand and said in a low voice, "It's not good for a table of people to accommodate themselves to their husbands."

Shen Wan's face was on fire as if the rouge box had exploded.

She was no match for him when it came to scheming, and she got herself into it.

She couldn't withdraw her partial hand, so she could only let him hold it. The others were fine, which made Yun Mo and Yun Rui, who were sitting next to Shen Yuan, embarrassed, their faces turned red, and their eyes were full of envy.

Shen Wan tried hard twice, but couldn't pull her hand back. She was ashamed and annoyed, and warned Xie Jingyan with her eyes that if he didn't let go, she would be rude.

Xie Jingyan acted as if he didn't see it, and even rubbed the back of Shen Wan's smooth hand provocatively with his fingertips. Then there was a pain in his thigh, which made his forehead tremble. He then released Shen Wan's hand on the table and changed She grabbed the hand that was making trouble on his thigh.

No one at the table saw the small movements between the two, but the maid serving the wine standing behind Shen Wan could see it clearly.

King Ling also dotes on his cousin's daughter.
