He Mianmian hesitated for a moment, then nodded. She paid for the silver jewelry and followed the woman out.

While still in the carriage, the woman introduced herself.

"My last name is Peng, and my given name is Xin Luo. If you don't mind, you can call me Xin Luo."

When He Mianmian heard that the woman's surname was Peng, she felt a little uncomfortable.

If Zhen Yuandao hadn't wanted to marry Miss Peng, they would have been together a long time ago.

However, she quickly adjusted her mentality. She is now different from her past self and her mood will not fluctuate because of a surname.

There are so many people with the last name Peng in this world, and this one is no different.

Although He Mianmian became Zhen Yuandao's mistress, she strictly followed the duties of a mistress and never asked about his family affairs.

Therefore, for so many years, she only knew that Mrs. Zhen's surname was Peng, and she didn't know that the woman in front of her was Zhen Yuandao's wife Peng Xinluo.

It's really a coincidence of fate.

The two of them actually met here.

But neither of them knew it and they were still talking happily along the way.

Peng Xinluo said, "Miss He, I am only two years older than you, but I am shameless enough to be your sister."

He Mianmian has seen a lot of weird things in her business over the past few years, but she thinks Peng Xinluo is indeed a good woman and she feels a little closer to her.

"Then I won't be polite and will call you sister."

The two of them started calling each other sister.

Speaking of her pregnancy, Peng Xinluo said, "I see that my sister is also pregnant and came out. My sister must be tired of staying at home. Why don't you come out for a walk?"

"I own a restaurant nearby, and I have to go out every day. Today, I thought about how hard it is for a woman to be pregnant, so I bought myself two pieces of jewelry. It can be considered a reward for myself."

Peng Xinluo said: "Sister is so capable that she can run her own business and open this restaurant."

Seeing that Peng Xinluo did not look down on her because of her current identity as a businesswoman, He Mianmian's smile became more sincere.

The two chatted for a while, and Peng Xinluo said, "The baby in my belly should be born earlier than yours. If both are girls, how about we let them become sworn sisters? If both are boys, how about we let them become sworn brothers."

As for whether she gave birth to a boy and a girl, Peng Xinluo didn't say anything and He Mianmian didn't ask.

It is naturally impossible for the children of officials and the children of merchants to become in-laws.

Here, Chang Hai has already arrived at Ulanala Mansion.

After more than 20 years, he walked in here again.

Chang Hai was thinking about seeking justice for his sister, but he was no longer the impulsive young man he used to be.

He said to Fei Yanggu: "I haven't been here for many years, but it still feels familiar."

After hearing what Chang Hai said, Fei Yanggu felt that Chang Hai no longer blamed him and his attitude had softened.

"Rong Lin's home is Big Brother's home. If Big Brother wants to stay for a while, just come over."

Both of them knew that Fei Yanggu was just being polite. As a relative of an aunt, how could Chang Hai come and live here for no reason?

Chang Hai also received Fei Yanggu's goodwill.

He thought of what his niece Yixiu had said to him.

In recent years, every time Ronglin's death anniversary comes, Yixiu will come back here to have dinner with Fei Yanggu and reminisce about Ronglin.

Originally, his sister's trace in Fei Yanggu's mind had almost been erased, but Yixiu's repeated mention of her made her image clearer in Fei Yanggu's mind.

Now that Fei Yanggu has shown kindness to him, it is hard to say that it is not due to Yixiu’s hard work in recent years.

Fei Yanggu told the butler to prepare a table of good food and wine, as he wanted to have a good drink with Chang Hai.

-----------------

As soon as Chang Hai entered the mansion, Duoluo Gege got the news.

She had known about Chang Hai's return for a long time. She was quite panicked at first, but after several years, Chang Hai had not made any move and seemed to be severing ties with the Ulanara clan, so she gradually put her mind at ease.

But when she heard people say that Chang Hai and Fei Yanggu came in talking and laughing, and seemed to be on good terms, she began to feel uneasy again.

Ever since the grave of that bitch Rong Lin was moved, Fei Yanggu has been thinking about that bitch all the time.

Duoluo Gege also clearly realized that even though that bitch had been dead for so many years, Fei Yanggu still had her in his heart.

Will she believe Chang Hai’s nonsense because of that bitch?

The more Duoluo Gege thought about it, the more panicked she became. She ordered the nanny beside her, "Go and call Master Xinghui back."

As the sky gradually darkened, Chang Hai and Fei Yanggu sat down.

After he had said just two words, someone came in carrying a bowl of medicine.

"Master, today's medicine has been prepared."

Fei Yanggu glanced at the servant and ordered, "Just put the medicine there."

The servant wanted to say something, but when he saw Fei Yanggu's expression, he hurriedly bowed and left.

Chang Hai showed concern for him and said, "General, you are not feeling well. I will come back to bother you another day."

Fei Yanggu waved his hand gently, "It's okay, it's an old problem."

He took the bowl of medicine and poured it out the window. "You can't drink alcohol with this medicine. I'll accompany my brother today and won't drink."

Chang Hai: ...

If something happens to you, will you still look for me?

This blame is put on him.

"General, you can have tea instead of wine."

Fei Yanggu insisted, "Drink wine, why are we drinking tea together?"

Chang Hai: Okay, as long as you are happy.

After the food and wine were ready, Fei Yanggu took the lead in pouring two glasses of wine, "Brother, let me toast you. Since Lin'er passed away, we haven't sat down to drink like this again."

Chang Hai’s thoughts went back to more than 20 years ago.

At that time, Fei Yanggu and Rong Lin had just fallen in love. They were very affectionate and were very polite to their family.

Chang Hai himself was well-educated and could get along well with Fei Yanggu. The two of them had a good relationship and would often drink and chat together like they did today.

"Speaking of which, after Lin'er passed away, my eldest brother stopped associating with me and moved his family back to his hometown. Even if I wanted to compensate my eldest brother and his family, I had no way to do so."

Chang Hai lowered his head and took a sip of wine, a hint of coldness flashing in his eyes.

Even if they had really returned to their hometown that year, Fei Yanggu would have had a way to compensate their family if he wanted to.

This is a bit hypocritical.

Chang Hai said calmly: "We didn't return to our hometown back then. We have been in the capital all these years."

Fei Yanggu frowned, "Brother, since you are in the capital, why don't you come to the general's mansion? But you are really angry with me."

Fei Yanggu recalled that when Rong Lin passed away, no one from Wang Jia came to see him. It was more than a month later that she sent a letter saying that they had returned to their hometown.

But looking at Chang Hai's current attitude, it doesn't seem like he doesn't care about his sister's life or death. Chang Hai was not like this when he met him before.

Chang Hai shook his head slightly, "Of course I'm not angry with you, but I have a reason why I can't come."
