Everyone was astonished. The story of a sparrow turning into a phoenix can only be seen in picture books. If it happened in real life, shouldn’t we be overjoyed? This is a great opportunity to soar to the sky!

Shangguan Lan was not surprised at all.

Even though the blood of the Shangguan family has fallen into exile, the pride in their bones remains.

He was proud of his sister, but at the same time he was very distressed.

Fortunately, his mother had told him before coming that he should not force his sister to do anything.

"Little sister, I won't force you to do anything. We will respect all your decisions. This is what my parents told me before I came here. But, can you please not reject our intimacy? Mother is still waiting for my news, and she is eager to see you."

Seeing the other party's anxious and cautious look, Zhou Xiaoxi felt a little ashamed. It was not their wish that the original owner was lost, but it was caused by a villain. In fact, they were also victims, and their attitude should not be so cold.

So she nodded seriously.

"Of course, I will come to see you when I have time."

Shangguan Lan felt relieved. This was enough. This matter could not be rushed and had to be done step by step.

My younger sister couldn't bear to leave her family here, so why not just buy a house in the capital and bring them over? Of course, the prerequisite is that they have to be willing.

It would be easier to let his own mother handle this matter, so he would not worry about it for now.

The most important thing right now is to send someone to deliver a letter to the capital as soon as possible, and then to maintain a good relationship with my younger sister.

Zhou Xiaoxi didn’t feel much at first when she suddenly had a brother.

Until Zhou Xiaonan came back from vacation.

I was so happy when I just got home, but I was suddenly told that my sister had found her family! She is obviously my sister's closest family!

Zhou Xiaonan wanted to cry.

Then she began to dislike Shangguan Lan and went against him in everything.

Shangguan Lan worked even harder in the inn. One day, when he came home, he asked Zhou Xiaoxi to make chicken wings for him.

Zhou Xiaoxi accidentally told him that the chicken was actually tastier if it was cooked with just the wings, and this guy got interested in it. He asked his servant to go to the county town to buy a dozen processed chickens, and finally gathered more than twenty chicken wings.

What a spendthrift!

Before he could get excited, Zhou Xiaonan began to sow discord:

"You don't care about my sister at all. She's been busy with the inn and the workshop recently. You actually let her make delicious food for you. What a selfish bastard! Are you my sister's biological brother? You're definitely a fake!"

"Oh my, you little girl, I think you are just jealous of me! Qingyue in our family has already recognized me as the second brother, so stop stirring up trouble here. Can't I just not eat the chicken wings, humph!"

"The combined age of the two of you is no more than five years old now, six at most." Zhou Xiaoxi said, holding his forehead.

Zhou Xiaonan immediately took Xiaoxi's arm to swing on the swing, and also learned to act like a spoiled child:

"Sister, are you tired? Let me massage your shoulders. Recently, Doctor Zhang taught me a set of massage techniques. He said he didn't intend to pass it on to others, but maybe he taught it to me because he saw that I was so cute and considerate, hehehe..."

Shangguan Lan was not willing to be left behind, and immediately put on a smile and said to Zhou Xiaoxi:

"Little sister, I asked Yuanbao to bring you a very unique bag from the city. It's so beautiful! Unfortunately, we didn't know that the store was holding an auction at the time. When mother attended the banquet, she saw other girls holding it and she was so envious. She thought you would definitely like it."

"She wanted to buy it with silver, but the other party said that there were only five in the whole Da'an Kingdom. She had finally spent a lot of money to buy it, so she refused. Our mother tried to persuade the other party for a long time but failed. It's a pity. Although this bag is not as exquisite and valuable as the one at the auction, I think it's also very good. Yuanbao~"

When Yuanbao heard his master calling him, he responded and immediately ran towards his own carriage.

Zhou Xiaoxi and Zhou Xiaonan looked at each other in bewilderment. This must be the bunny buns they made, right?!

When Shangguan Lan's servant came running over and handed the bag carefully held in his hand to Zhou Xiaoxi, Zhou Xiaonan burst out laughing.

“Hahahaha, ouch my stomach hurts from laughing, ah hahaha, but I can’t stop, I can’t stop, hahahaha…”

Yang Zian:?

Yuanbao: What happened? Is there something wrong with this bag that makes it so it can't be given away casually? Did my son flatter someone and end up hitting the horse's hoof?

Zhou Xiaoxi wanted to laugh and was also a little touched. It seemed that the mother she had never met really loved her little daughter!

"Uh, that, second brother, thank you for your kindness. However, this bag was actually embroidered by me and my mother, or maybe someone in the village. Don't you know that the handicraft workshop that is being built recently is just for making these..."

Shangguan Lan was embarrassed and proud! Ah, was this actually done by her sister? Ah, ah, if the people in the capital knew about this, wouldn't they be so jealous of them!

"Hahaha, little sister, you are so awesome! I must write a letter to tell mother the good news! Oh, no, she is already on her way here and can't receive my letter."

He paced back and forth excitedly, spinning in circles.

"By the way, if you don't want to write to mom, you can write to big brother and dad. Haha, they can't come over, so let them be envious!"

Zhou Xiaoxi looked at Shangguan Lan who was dancing with joy, and was also infected by his joy. He couldn't help but say:

"In half a month or so, the flowers in the village will bloom. I have also spread a lot of beautifully blooming medicinal herb seeds. By then, the whole village will be like a fairyland. Second brother, you might be so happy that you won't want to leave!"

Zhou Xiaoxi's unfinished words were, "My biological mother would be very happy to see me. I hope her trip is worthwhile."

My originally calm heart suddenly felt a surge of anticipation, and I was actually a little impatient to see the other person!

Madam Shangguan, Baili Nanqing, whom Zhou Xiaoxi had been longing for, had just been assassinated.

Thanks to Shangguan Chong who was concerned about his wife's safety, he sent ten more agile guards before the trip. In addition, Shangguan Yunxin also made an invaluable contribution.

She insisted on coming along, and Baili Nanqing disagreed at first. But she said she knew martial arts and could protect her mother along the way, so Shangguan Chong was persuaded and came along.

As a result, they were assassinated about a hundred miles away from Beijing. The attacker was brutal and ruthless, and it was obvious that they were not ordinary mountain bandits.

They didn't want to rob people for money or women, but only wanted to take their lives, and they were all targeting Baili Nanqing.

In order to protect his mother's safety, Shangguan Yunxin was slashed on the arm by the thief. The wound was not deep, but the bad thing was that the knife was smeared with poison!

The group had to temporarily stop their journey and report the case to the local authorities. Fortunately, Huichuntang also had a branch in the local area, and Shangguan Yunxin was treated in time and was not in danger of death.

Baili Nanqing said worriedly:

"Xin'er, who do you think did this? They were obviously targeting me, but our family doesn't have any grudges against anyone!"

Although Shangguan Yunxin was a little weak, she was very conscious. She was also worried about this matter. If they didn't find out the truth, it would be difficult for them to reach Shancang County safely.

More importantly, there was a possibility that the little sister would be in danger! The person that the whole family had gone through so much trouble to find would not be allowed to be in any danger at all!

Even if she risks her life!
