The eldest daughter of a peasant family: They are all my sisters’ passers-by

"He Yi, protect them at home."

He Yi was ordered to protect Lan Wangshu. He was a little conflicted for a moment, but still felt that Miss Lan's safety was more important.

"Sister, let Brother He follow you. We won't be in danger if we don't go out."

Lan Luochen spoke up. He was more worried about Lan Wangshu, who had lived in the county town for so long and suddenly returned to the village. He didn't know what he would encounter.

When he saw that she had changed back into her hemp clothes, he understood her concerns. He knew that wealth should not be displayed openly, so he became even more worried.

Lan Wangshu curled his lips and nodded.

"Okay, remember to lock the door. Don't open it unless my sister comes back."

The money in her mind sang a song to suit the situation, "Little rabbit, open the door!"

Lan Wangshu's face was filled with black lines. She didn't know what memory this money-maker had gone through.

She took He Yi and found a ox cart heading towards Cangnan Village. He Yi hesitated to speak and wanted to ask her why she didn't find a horse carriage. When they arrived at Cangnan Village, they understood that riding in a ox cart would also attract attention.

"Shu girl, you're back."

The woman under the big tree at the entrance of the village was still gossiping about family matters. When she saw her, she looked at her curiously and greeted her.

"Yes, auntie, I'm in a hurry to find the village chief, we'll talk later."

She greeted him with a bright and enthusiastic look on her face, and continued driving towards the village chief's house with no intention of stopping.

"This Shu girl has really grown up now. She can even talk directly to the village chief."

A woman couldn't help but sigh as she was sewing clothes.

"Yeah, that's good too. It prevents the Lan family from bullying the child every day."

……

"Is the village chief at home?"

The person who opened the door was a handsome young man. The fabric he was wearing looked good, not something that ordinary people could afford. He was holding a book in his hand. He was a little surprised to see Lan Wangshu. He had studied abroad for many years and had no impression of the person in front of him.

"you are?"

Lan Wangshu was also confused. She had never seen this person before when she came to the village chief's house. She took a step back and looked around the house. It was the village chief's house, no doubt about it. Who was this person?

"I am the village chief's youngest son, Cang Wenyuan, courtesy name Xiuqi."

After he finished speaking, he felt that he had said too much and forgot that he had already returned to the village.

"Husband, who is here?"

When Gao heard a woman's voice coming from outside, she hurried over, fearing that it would affect her husband's reputation.

"I am Lan Wangshu, the daughter of the eldest son of the Lan family. I am here to discuss something with the village chief."

"Father-in-law is not at home, please come back another day."

Cang Wenyuan was somewhat displeased after hearing what Gao said, but he did not react too much because the little girl had grown up now.

"Sister-in-law, I wonder where the village chief has gone?"

She also didn't want to have anything to do with a married man, so she turned around and talked to Gao.

Gao was overjoyed when she was called sister-in-law. Her husband had never liked her very much. If it weren't for the marriage contract they had made since childhood, she would never have been able to marry the current scholar. He was very wary of any woman who appeared around him. It was the first time that someone seriously called her sister-in-law.

"It seems that something happened at the old Lan family."

When Lan Wangshu heard the words "Old Lan Family", his brows furrowed, wondering what this was about.

"Miss Lan, do you want to go over?"

Cang Wenyuan glanced at He Yi, then looked at Lan Wangshu again. The girl's porcelain-white face did not look like a country girl, and the upturned corners of her eyes added a sense of mystery.

"Go, let's go."

"Yes, Miss Blue."

Gao looked at Lan Wangshu's elegant manners with envy. Even when she was riding on the ox cart, she looked so graceful. They were both country girls, so how could she be so different?

"Husband, let's go inside too."

She carefully examined his expression, but received only an emotionless look from him.

"You don't have to do this in the future. Now that I've married you, I won't ignore you. You will always be my wife."

Gao was feeling bitter inside. She was just a wife and the man had entered her room only a few times in these years. The matchmaker's words only asked for a status. She knew that she was marrying above her station and they didn't even have a child after being married for many years, so she could only bow her head and agree.

The ox cart swayed to a place not far from Old Lan's home. Lan Wangshu was furious when she saw the large blue brick and tile house in front of her. She thought that she had used her father's money to build the house, and now she was driving them out. How shameless of her to do that.

Lan Wangshu's gaze was cold and sharp like a knife, and He Yi looked at him with curiosity.

"He Yi, go find out what happened."

After a while, he came over.

"The Lan family heard from somewhere that you can make ice, and they said you stole the recipe from home. They went to mess with your house while it was being built, and even broke into the thatched house and rummaged around. The neighbors saw them, and they reported the incident to the village chief."

Lan Wangshu couldn't understand why the Lan family took so long to react. They even stopped selling ice porridge. How did they just react to this? Did someone say something?

She knew what was going on and there was nothing to be afraid of, so she walked straight to the gate of Old Lan's yard. She saw the village chief standing aside with a grim look on his face and Xu was lying on the ground again.

"Grandma, what's this opera?"
