Yinghun saw that his forehead was covered in sweat, and he couldn't tell whether it was because of the cold or fear.

He subconsciously reminded: "My Lord, let's not endure it anymore. How about I go and ask Madam if there is any other way?"

Zhan Yan frowned, what a shame!

He is really going to embarrass himself this time!

If Wanwan saw this, she would definitely laugh at him!

If I had known this earlier, I should have asked Yinghun to bring Yao Lao to the farm as well.

He took a deep breath and said, "How about you go and carry Yao Lao again?"

Just as Yinghun was about to answer, he heard Lin Yiwan's voice coming from outside the window: "It's the middle of the night, don't bother him anymore, just have a fight!"

Zhan Yan rushed out and put on his clothes at an extremely fast speed: "Yinghun, let's go!"

The two flew to the apricot blossom forest and started fighting directly.

Lin Yiwan munched on almond cookies while commenting, "The Marquis's kung fu is pretty good. He beat Shadow Soul so hard that he kept retreating!"

Ling'er raised an eyebrow and glanced at him: "No way, it was clearly the Marquis who was hit by Shadow Soul!"

Lin Yiwan frowned subconsciously: "Oh my, he really dares to beat up the Marquis?"

Ling'er was surprised: "Didn't you ask them to have a fight? How can it be considered a fight if they don't really fight?"

Lin Yiwan looked away feeling guilty. Actually, she had other ideas, but she just wanted to teach Zhan Yan a lesson. It was his fault for making such trouble.

But it was really painful to see him being beaten by Shadow Soul.

Forget it, I’d better not watch it!

I’m sleepy, let’s go to bed!

Lin Yiwan returned to the room and got into bed without a care in the world.

As for how long Zhan Yan and Ying Hun fought, she had no idea.

The next day, she saw Zhan Yan with panda eyes sitting in front of her, his face full of resentment.

She immediately burst into laughter: "Husband, how badly were you beaten?"

Zhan Yan raised his eyebrows: "You haven't even seen the shadow soul yet!"

Ling'er came in with hot water. She muttered, "Madam, I was almost scared to death by Shadow Soul last night. I was left outside with a swollen face. Please apply some ointment to him quickly. He can't even see anyone!"

Lin Yiwan took the ointment and handed it to her, and she hurried out.

Zhan Yan said, "My husband will also be painted!"

She felt a little guilty, so she applied it for him herself.

He couldn't help but ask, "Wanwan, in a situation like last night, is there any gentler way?"

She nodded without hesitation: "Yes, as long as I don't let my mind wander, I'll be able to recover in about half an hour!"

Zhan Yan's face was full of innocence: "I don't want to let my mind wander, but my mind keeps thinking, and I can't control it!"

Lin Yiwan blurted out without hesitation: "Then can you control your mouth?"

She suddenly realized what she had said, and her pretty face turned red.

She gritted her teeth and snorted coldly: "If you dare to provoke me again, I will leave you alone, and all the pain will be in vain!"

After saying that, she ran out quickly.

It was not until she felt the cool breeze outside that the heat on her face dissipated a lot.

She looked up and saw Ling'er sitting on a stone bench applying medicine to Yinghun, and he looked like he was enjoying it very much.

She was shocked. Oh my god, there was something wrong with the way Yinghun looked at Ling'er.

That obsessive energy!

At this time, Zhan Yan walked behind her and subconsciously asked, "Wanwan, what are you looking at?"

She quickly grabbed his wrist, and when they reached a secluded place, she asked anxiously, "Did you notice that Yinghun is interested in Ling'er?"

Zhan Yan glanced over there and nodded immediately: "Well, I can see some clues!"

She suddenly became as excited as an old mother and quickly asked, "How old is Yinghun and what is his family like?"

He frowned and replied, "The secret guards around me are all orphans. Their parents died in the war. I brought them back from the border, and their home is the Marquis' Mansion!"

A complex look flashed across Lin Yiwan's eyes. She knew how cruel war was.

In particular, the king of Li was a warmongerer who launched a war almost every year.

He asked for peace after losing the battle and even offered his princess as a bride. How shameless!

It’s just a pity for the people living on the border. Whenever a war breaks out, they become displaced and homeless.

She sighed and said, "So, you are not only their master, but also their parent?"

He nodded. "Well, Yinghun is pretty good. He's been helping me gather information outside before, and he was just recently transferred back to the mansion. Do you plan to marry Ling'er to him?"

Lin Yiwan still didn't know what Ling'er was thinking, so she couldn't help her make a decision.

She subconsciously said, "I'll tell you after I ask Ling'er. That little girl grew up with me and has a simple personality. I'm afraid she hasn't realized what Yinghun is thinking yet!"

Zhan Yan actually wanted to ask her at this moment, have you noticed what I am thinking?

But he didn't dare!

He felt that it was God's blessing that they could become husband and wife, and he shouldn't ask for too much.

He clenched his fist, put it to his lips and coughed.

Lin Yiwan asked worriedly, "Did you catch a cold from soaking in cold water too much last night?"

He shook his head: "No, my throat is just a little itchy. Maybe it's because the air on the farm is too dry!"

Lin Yiwan was about to say something when the kind-looking Nanny Qiu came forward and said respectfully, "My Lord, I have prepared a simple meal for you and your wife and have placed it in the main hall!"

Zhan Yan asked calmly, "Mammy, do you remember the past? Has the old lady ever had a pregnant maid?"

Nanny Qiu glanced at Lin Yiwan with a complicated expression.

Lin Yiwan quickly said, "Your throat is dry, isn't it? I'll go get you some licorice!"

Just as she was about to leave, Zhan Yan quickly grabbed her wrist.

He said firmly, "Wanwan is my wife. She has the right to know everything!"

Nanny Qiu then said, "I went to ask the elders on the farm. I heard that when the old lady was pregnant, she was accompanied by a pregnant maid who came to the farm a few times, but she hasn't been seen since!"

Zhan Yan frowned and subconsciously asked, "Did you find out the maid's name?"

Aunt Qiu nodded quickly: "Her name is Yinghui. The old lady picked her up when she was praying for blessings. She has no parents and is very pitiful!"

Zhan Yan's expression was cold and distant, making it difficult to discern his inner thoughts.

Lin Yiwan was the first to react. She handed a box of beauty pills to Aunt Qiu and said, "Thank you for your care, Aunt. This Xinghua Manor is beautiful. I love it!"

Nanny Qiu was flattered. Although she was in Xinghua Manor, she knew that the beauty pills were hard to come by in the capital.

Many nobles and ladies tried their best to buy it but couldn't, but the marquis's wife actually gave her such a jar.

She really didn't dare to take it!

She quickly said, "This servant of yours is not rewarded for no merit. I have done my best to inquire about things for the Marquis, and it is my duty!"
