Only this green, not disappointing the spring

When Yang Zian arrived at the Yang family, Shangguan Lan had already eaten dinner.

In order to avoid meeting Miss Yang again, he said he was too tired and ate directly in the guest room.

When Yang Zi'an came back, he was lying on the couch reading a book. When he saw the man coming, he jumped off the couch with a somersault.

"Brother Zhongli, you're finally back!"

There was endless grievance and dissatisfaction in his tone.

Yang Zian raised his eyebrows slightly.

"My grandmother will certainly treat you as a guest of honor. Logically, she would never neglect you, but why do I hear grievance in your tone? No one in the Yang family dares to offend you, Master Shangguan!"

Alas, this matter concerns a woman's reputation, Shangguan Lan could not say much, and only said vaguely:

"Your cousin might catch a cold tomorrow..."

In an instant, Yang Zian thought of many possibilities, but overturned them one by one.

"Why?"

Shangguan Lan shrugged, pursed his lips and replied:

"Nothing much, I just saw that she was wearing something very cool today, I was just guessing."

Yang Zian looked up at the beams of the house and deeply regretted coming back.

It seems that he will have to have a good talk with his grandfather tomorrow. Some things are better to be made clear.

Shangguan Lan asked anxiously:

"Brother Hongxuan, please tell me about my sister. How can I meet her without appearing awkward? I must not act too eager, otherwise it would be bad if he thought I was a pervert. But I can't be too cold, or my sister will be angry if she finds out..."

Yang Zian's head hurt from hearing the non-stop babble. He quickly interrupted the other person:

"You haven't even made the final confirmation yet. It's not appropriate to say the younger sister is older than the younger sister now, right? And how did you say you were 70% to 80% sure?"

Shangguan Lan instantly quieted down and fell into memories.

"Years ago, after my eldest brother saw Xiaoxi, he originally planned to go and investigate in person after finishing his official business. However, he did not expect to find out something shocking and was so busy that he was exhausted. Later, he sent someone close to him to Huaihua Village because he was too busy to do anything else. However, he found nothing the first time."

This was something Yang Zian had not expected.

"Since nothing was found, how did you verify it later?"

"Because he didn't find anyone who knew the truth, my eldest brother didn't give up and sent people again. This time he found Xiaoxi's father. He said he remembered that when he found the child, he was wearing a peach pink dress with a cat embroidered on the collar with gold thread."

Shangguan Lan held Yang Zian's shoulders with some excitement and said in a trembling voice:

"Brother Hongxuan, my mother said that my sister was taken away by that damned nanny while wearing that dress! My mother said that my sister loves cats very much and she dances with excitement every time she sees one, so she embroidered a cat on her collar on a whim!"

"There can't be such a coincidence in this world, so the possibility that Xiaoxi is my sister is very high!"

Yang Zian felt mixed emotions. If Xiaoxi was really the legitimate daughter of the Shangguan family, then how could he, a bastard who had already left the Zhongli family, be worthy of her? !

He had known his feelings for a long time and had been forbearing and restraining himself, burying his feelings deep in his heart and carefully nurturing them, waiting for the little girl to grow up before expressing his feelings to her.

The waiting process is bitter and sweet, and he enjoys it.

But now, his secret feelings haven't even had time to ferment, so he has to give up? !

There was only bitterness left in his heart, but he had to continue pretending nothing had happened.

"How do we confirm the last 20%? Is there something else that can prove it, or do we need to see the clothes with our own eyes?"

Well, this is not easy to answer. The answer has to be found in his sister, and this is also what gives him the most headache.

He could only perfunctorily deal with it.

"Well... Anyway, I have to see it with my own eyes before I can find a way to confirm it."

Seeing Shangguan Lan so hesitant, Yang Zian immediately thought of a possibility. Could it be the birthmark on her body? If that was the case, it would be a bit difficult to deal with.

……

The next day, Yang Wanxiu caught a cold as expected and had a high fever.

She had her maid alter the golden dress to fit her size the previous night, but before she could wear it for Shangguan Lan to see, she fell ill.

Lying on the bed, she was delirious due to fever, and kept shouting "Master Shangguan". The maidservant who served her was always nervous and tried to cover up for her. If anyone heard it, her young lady would be known as a shameless person.

When Old Madam Yang learned that her precious granddaughter was ill, she was angry and anxious. How could her granddaughter fail at the critical moment!

In a panic, she sent a maid to inform Shangguan Lan, hoping that he would pay attention to his granddaughter. However, before she even left the Chuihua Gate, she was blocked by Mr. Yang's men.

The other party's excuse was: Madam Yang is old and frail and needs rest, and no one is allowed to enter or leave at will.

They are under house arrest!

Yang Zian, who had already had a deep conversation with Old Master Yang, had already left the Yang Mansion with Shangguan Lan and was heading for Xiangxue Village in a carriage.

……

Zhou Xiaoxi from the village was busy cleaning up the wasteland around the inn with other villagers. The women were responsible for cleaning up the dead grass, while the men were responsible for burning it into ash.

Another group of people was responsible for loosening the soil and sowing rapeseed seeds.

The beginning of spring marks the beginning of the season for spring sowing.

The land began to thaw slowly, and in another three to five days the workers would begin laying the foundation and officially build the inn.

In order to ensure that the inn can be built when the flowers on the fruit trees are in full bloom, young and middle-aged people from the three villages have to take turns to work.

In addition, Yang Zian and Fu Qiuyang also hired a group of experienced craftsmen who specialized in building houses in the city to ensure that things could be done to perfection.

Fu Qiuyang was also here today, but he had long lost the demeanor of a handsome young man. He was directing the craftsmen busy around and helping to lift some heavy objects from time to time.

At first, the villagers looked down on him, thinking that this young man who looked better than a woman must be a weak sissy.

Unexpectedly, he did his work without any pretense. Although he looked frail, he was actually strong and powerful.

Now the girls in the village were even more excited and fell in love with him.

Who can resist a man who is good-looking and manly?

Even Zhou Xiaoxi was impressed by Fu Qiuyang. She bet that he must have eight-pack abs and a mermaid line under his clothes!

Wow...

What should I do? I really want to see it!

Zhou Xiaoxi, who was daydreaming, suddenly felt a pain on her forehead. She knew without looking that it must be Fu Qiuyang.

My goodness, the pink bubble was popped as soon as it appeared!

He rolled his eyes at the other person in annoyance.

"Brother Fu, I hope this is the last time! You can't just hit your head randomly, it will make you stupid. Be careful or I'll depend on you!"

Fu Qiuyang ignored it and pointed to the distance.

"Who told you not to react? Look, isn't that your brother Yang's carriage? He couldn't come today, so why is he here again?"
