And there is also Mother Wang’s family, the people who followed her out of Beijing and accompanied her through all the hardships along the way. She deserves to be properly settled!

"Young Master, our whole family are your servants. We will follow you wherever you go!" Mother Wang said in a firm tone.

Shen Lanxi sighed and said, "Following me may mean you are in danger, wandering around, or even facing many dangers. Are you and your family willing to follow me?"

Without waiting for Mother Wang to speak, she continued, "Hongliutun is under my jurisdiction. If you are willing to stay, I can give you enough gold and silver to buy you property. I can ensure that your family will have enough food and clothing for three generations."

Mother Wang turned her head and glanced at her family, and said firmly: "We are still willing to follow you, Master!"

Shen Lanxi pondered for a moment and said, "Are you going to celebrate the New Year here or at the guard post?"

Mother Wang: "Go to the guard post!"

"Go back and pack your things, and follow us tomorrow morning!"

"Yes!"

Just as Mother Wang took her family back, Shen Yuanxin arrived.

"Big sister, grandma misses you and wants you to come over and talk to her!"

Shen Lanxi glanced at her and said calmly, "You go back first, I'll come over after I'm done!"

Shen Yuanxin didn't leave in a hurry. She stood up and stammered as if she had something to say to Shen Lanxi.

"Big sister, I have something to say, but I don't know if I should tell you!"

Shen Lanxi: "Don't talk about things you shouldn't talk about!"

Shen Yuanxin: "Mrs. Zhang has been using her pregnancy as an excuse to get Yuan He and Yuan Rui to look for their father these days!"

Shen Lanxi looked at her straightly: "So?"

Shen Yuanxin said indignantly: "When we were in the capital, mother had already set the rules. The children in the first house are enough. Aunt Zhang did not obey the mistress's order and had a child secretly. Isn't elder sister angry?"

Shen Lanxi looked at her dimly and said, "I understand. Remember my words. I don't care if you interfere in other matters, but you can't touch any of the Shen family's children!"

Shen Yuanxin felt as if her elder sister had seen through everything she was thinking, so she quickly looked away.

"Big sister, you misunderstood. How could I possibly touch the child? I just said that Aunt Zhang didn't respect the mistress!"

Shen Lanxi thought about her mother who was still ill, and said, "My mother will take care of this matter!"

Shen Yuanxin left unwillingly.

After eating a little, Shen Lanxi went to see her grandparents!

Knowing that Shen Lanxi would be here soon, the people sitting in the hall would look towards the door every once in a while, and they all had the same thought in their minds.

Why haven't you come yet?

It was not until they saw Shen Lanxi come in that everyone in the Shen family, except the old man and the old lady, stood up and greeted her warmly.

"Lan Xi, here we come!"

Shen Lanxi nodded, and as she walked, the belt around her waist was faintly visible, which shocked all the Shen family members!

She actually became a centurion!

How can she be a woman if she can jump three levels in such a short time?

If she were a man, their Shen family would be considered a powerful force now!

"Lan Xi, come and sit down and have a rest!" Old Madam Shen changed her cold attitude and patted the seat on her right with a smile.

"Hurry up and pour some hot tea to warm Lan Xi up!"

A group of people were being directed around by the old lady!

"Lan Xi, why are you the only one back this time? When will your second uncle and Yuan Jing come back? The Chinese New Year is coming soon. This is the first Chinese New Year for our family since we moved to Dongchuan. We must be together!"

Old Madam Shen had a kind smile on her face and was listening to every word!

Shen Lanxi's expression was gentle, but her tone was as cold as iron!

"Grandmother, please don't ask about the affairs of the garrison. When Second Uncle and his men come back, don't ask about their affairs at the garrison. Once they tell us, it will be a leak of military intelligence!"

Old Madam Shen froze: "It's okay for our family to talk about it, right?"

Shen Lanxi pursed her lips and said nothing.

"Lan Xi, have lunch at home. I'll ask your aunt to make you your favorite magnolia cake!"

Shen Lanxi shook her head: "I'm going up the mountain in the afternoon!"

Old Madam Shen's eyebrows jumped: "What are you doing up the mountain?"

"hunt!"

Liu: "Lan Xi, you are a centurion now, why do you still need to go hunting in the mountains yourself? Just let your soldiers do it!"

Shen Lanxi: "I want to hunt large beasts, preferably tigers, leopards, black bears, etc."

The Shen family's hearts jumped at the same time.

"Lan Xi, that's a man-eating beast, you must not take the risk!" Old Madam Shen knew that ever since their Shen family was charged with the crime of stealing Wei's army's rations and wages, it would be difficult for them to turn things around in this life.

Thinking that she had finally had a chance to turn things around, she also expected Shen Lanxi to take care of her children and grandchildren.

How could I watch her take risks?

"You are not allowed to go. You have just been promoted to centurion. If something goes wrong, all your hard work will be in vain!"

Shen Lanxi said calmly: "I go hunting wild animals just to intimidate my soldiers. In the military camp, martial arts are respected, and whoever is stronger will be obeyed. I am not as strong and tall as others, so I can only find another way!"

Old Madam Shen understood this principle, but a ferocious beast is not something else. If she fails to catch it, the peaceful life she has finally achieved will become a gift to others.

Nothing can happen to her now!

"Lan Xi, listen to grandma. Grandma won't harm you!"

Shen Lanxi stood up and said, "I have made up my mind, Grandma, there is no need to persuade me anymore."

Madam Shen clenched her hands under her sleeves and her face darkened!

"Okay, since you must go, then go ahead. Grandma is looking forward to your safe return!"

Shen Lanxi turned and left!

The weather started to get gloomy again in the afternoon. Shen Lanxi called everyone and went up the mountain with weapons!

"My lord, look at the weather, it's going to snow again soon!" Wei Dongzhu put on the mask. The new skin on his face was not resistant to the cold!

Shen Lanxi glanced up at the sky and saw light snow circling by and flying towards the east.

"Then we should make a quick decision and rush back to Baihe County before it snows!"

"Yes!"

Shen Lanxi took Wei Dong Zhufeng Wu and flew eastward quickly.

"Nubai, search for the beast!"

"Received Master!"

"There is a winter-warm black bear in the cave ahead. Two hundred meters to the east is a tiger out hunting. The tiger just captured a sika deer and is now stopping to look for food!"

Just choose the tiger!

"East!"

"Yes!"

Shen Lanxi was in front, Feng Wu and Wei Dongzhu were behind. The two had tried their best, but they were still 20 to 30 meters away from Shen Lanxi. If she hadn't been wearing a red cape, they would have lost her long ago!

The king of beasts remains vigilant even when foraging.

When it smelled the scent of a stranger, it immediately opened its bloody mouth and threatened the direction where the scent came from.

Shen Lanxi landed on a tree branch, while Feng Wu and Wei Dongzhu stood on the snow.

A more than three-meter-long tiger stared at them and let out a terrifying roar!

The next second, the tiger ran towards them like a bent bow.

Shen Lanxi fell gracefully, with her cloak fluttering behind her, like a piece of fallen red on the snow.

The next moment, he turned around, and with the long stick in his hand, he suppressed the tiger's roar and smashed it down on the tiger's head as if with the power to split the wind!
