The carriage had been travelling for about four hours and it was already the latter half of the day.

Lu Liang suddenly shouted, "It's this village. Go east and you'll find the most dilapidated house."

Xiao Lin continued driving in the direction she pointed.

Mrs. Lu Liang was a little excited. "I didn't know at first. I heard from my elder sister that there is a powerful person in Dongguan Village..."

"Wait, what village is this?" Xiao Lin asked in a deep voice.

He asked suddenly, which scared Lu Liangshi. Her voice couldn't stop trembling. "Dong... Dongguan Village, what happened? Do you know?"

"Just ask."

Xiao Lin said this, but he thought of someone.

"We're here. This is the house. Oh my god, we're finally here. My waist is sore from sitting all the way." Lu Liang said with a smile. However, if she had walked, it would have taken her a whole day last time.

"San Ya... no, Shen... Zhihuan or something, Miss Shen, is your father at home?" Lu Liang shouted.

Shen Zhihuan?

Jiang Shuyue's eyes flashed. How come her name was the same as that of the legendary woman who was famous in the capital?

And Xiao Lin was already certain that this was Shen Zhihuan, with whom he had a close relationship in his previous life. After all, they were both from Shangyang County and Dongguan Village. It would be difficult to find another person with the same name, right?

He narrowed his eyes, his expression somewhat complicated.

He actually met Shen Zhihuan three years earlier than in his previous life.

When I met her, she went to the capital alone and met a bad guy. If it weren't for me, she would have been sold to a brothel.

Because he heard that she was from Shangyang County, which is adjacent to Songyuan County. Although they were not from the same hometown, they were more familiar with each other. After getting to know each other, he felt that she was a very interesting person. Her head was full of strange ideas, and she spoke in a language that ordinary people could not understand, and sometimes even seemed absurd.

Later she went to the capital, and after her death, she indeed made a name for herself in the world she had talked about, because she had always been with Jiang Shuyue and heard some stories about Shen Zhihuan.

He was quite happy for this unique girl.

But he never knew that Shen Zhihuan's father could detoxify, and anyone who could detoxify must also be able to develop poisons.

Shen Zhihuan never mentioned these.

The noise in the yard interrupted their thoughts.

"Let me go. You can go after whoever owes you the debt. What does it have to do with me? I am free. I can decide my own affairs."

Xiao Lin strode in and saw a young girl being pulled by two men.

"Help!" the girl shouted as if she saw a savior.

Xiao Lin frowned. He was tall and the two men were startled.

Shen Zhihuan took the opportunity to hide behind Xiao Lin. Looking at the familiar person, Xiao Lin was a little stunned.

"You dare to rob a woman in broad daylight. You... don't you want to live?"

"Your father owed us fifty taels of silver, and he ran away. Who else can we look for if not you?" said one of the men.

"Did I owe it? What does it have to do with me? See? These are all witnesses. I'll sue you and put you in jail!"

Seeing that Xiao Lin was not easy to deal with, the two men said, "Just wait and see, this matter is not over yet."

Then they left.

Shen Zhihuan looked at Xiao Lin, his eyes shining, "Little brother, you are so handsome."

Xiao Lin frowned slightly. He felt a little disgusted by the same words at this moment, "I'm already married."

Shen Zhihuan also followed his gaze and looked at Jiang Shuyue, curled his lips, and looked disgusted.

"What's wrong with getting married? There's no love in arranged marriages." Shen Zhihuan smiled, then remembered to ask: "Who are you?"

"Let's go find Doctor Shen."

"He has already run away. He ran away because he owed money. What a black-hearted guy." Shen Zhihuan snorted coldly, "I have never seen a father like this. I have only been here for three days..."

"Where did he go?"

Others were not anxious, but Lu Liang was, because her money was gone.

"You ask me, who should I ask?" Shen Zhihuan rolled his eyes.

"Can we see him tomorrow?"

"I don't know. Anyway, you won't see me tomorrow. I won't stay in this damn place for even a day." Shen Zhihuan complained as if no one was around.

"Where are you going?"

"I'm going to Beijing to pursue my career. Forget it. You guys wouldn't understand even if I told you." Shen Zhihuan sighed. "You only know how to take care of your husband and children and regard your husband as your God. I'm not like that."

Jiang Shuyue rolled her eyes, "If the girl is worried that the debt collectors will come to her house..."

Mrs. Shen is missing, and Miss Shen may know some clues. She doesn't want both father and daughter to die.

"Stop it. The debt has nothing to do with me. Whoever owes it should pay it back. If you want to give me charity, there is no need. Girl, I have many ways to make money. Any one of them can make me rich."

Jiang Shuyue had no doubts. After all, she had many wonderful ideas in her previous life, and many of the delicious foods she made were learned from her shop.

Shen Zhihuan was not happy with Jiang Shuyue, but he was very nice to Xiao Lin who saved her. "Little brother, what's your name?"

He is so handsome, it’s a pity that he has no wife yet.

"Xiao Lin!"

"What a nice name!" Shen Zhihuan said, "You helped me. When I make money in the future, I will repay you."

"Miss Shen, Doctor Shen is not here. Should I still go to see the patient he promised to treat?" Lu Liang asked anxiously.

"Then how would I know?" Shen Zhihuan asked back, "Why don't you ask him?"

Not seeing Doctor Shen and seeing Shen Zhihuan's attitude, Lu Liangshi felt like crying.

But there is no way to go back even if I cry to death.

On the way back, it was already dark, and the evening breeze was slightly chilly.

Neither the husband nor the wife spoke. Mrs. Lu Liang was not as talkative as when she came. She was worried about not being able to make money. What should she do?

Jiang Shuyue was thinking, if the poison he had in his previous life was really developed by Doctor Shen, then would it be related to Shen Zhihuan?

She just remembered that she had seen Shen Zhihuan in Prince Li's Mansion before, but it was just a fleeting moment and she didn't know her identity.

When she was bedridden, Prince Li had already become the crown prince, but she had no idea whether he ascended the throne afterwards.

Xiao Lin was also thinking about the poison he was infected with. Did it have anything to do with Shen Zhihuan?

If not, then why did she hide the identity of her father?

They had only been together briefly in their previous life, but he had never doubted her because she was rash, careless, and easily got into trouble.

But if she was not lying, and she was going to the capital tomorrow, then by the time I met her in my previous life, she had already been in the capital for three full years.

"Sister Shuyue, it's not that I don't want to help you, it's that Doctor Shen is not at home!" Lu Liang said in a tearful voice, "That money... I really can't pay it back!"
