Madam Wenxiang felt a little embarrassed: "If it weren't for my momentary anger, things wouldn't have come to this point..."

After hearing this, Shen Nanxing smiled and wiped away her tears: "How can I blame you for this? You saved my brother's life, so you are our family's great benefactor. If we still dwell on such a trivial matter, we would be ungrateful and would be despised by the world."

"Besides, the matter has been resolved. Your Majesty will not pursue it further."

Madam Wen Xiang was surprised and asked, "Are you serious?"

"It's absolutely true. During this great war between North Vietnam and Donglai, thanks to you, we were able to capture ten cities of Donglai in one fell swoop and sign a truce treaty with Donglai."

"My brother made an invaluable contribution in this battle. His Majesty appointed him as a guest official. Although he holds no real position, thankfully His Majesty has not held him accountable."

Shen Nanxing was also very sorry. His brother was destined not to be able to enjoy the same high position and wealth in Beiyue as he did in Donglai. He could not even inherit the title of marquis that should have belonged to him.

But he is still alive, and the family can be together happily, this is already the best outcome.

Shen Nanxing thought for a moment and said, "Aunt, my brother has returned to the Marquis' Mansion and is in the capital. I will come with him to see you in a couple of days when I have time."

"Okay, that's great." Mrs. Wenxiang cried with joy.

Now that she has reconciled with the old man and moved back to North Vietnam, Ming'er has also returned to North Vietnam, and she has found her family again. It really couldn't be better.

The two chatted for a while, and the old doctor came back with the boiled tea.

He first poured a cup of tea and placed it in front of the old woman.

Madam Wenxiang glared at him and said unhappily, "You old man, do you know any manners? Nanxing is a guest, you should pour her the tea first!"

As he spoke, he pushed the tea in front of him to Shen Nanxing and said embarrassedly: "Nanxing, my husband is ignorant, I'm sorry to make you laugh."

The old doctor was so anxious that his long beard stood up. "Didn't you tell me to put you first in everything?"

"Shut up!" Madam Wenxiang glared at him.

The old doctor shut up angrily and poured another cup of tea for the old woman.

Madam Wen Xiang looked at Shen Nanxing, her face slightly red: "Nanxing, don't listen to his nonsense."

"Okay." Shen Nanxing responded with a smile, but he was actually a little envious in his heart.

Although this old couple has some awkward personalities, the affection between them is truly something that makes people yearn for them.

While she was stunned, she suddenly heard the old doctor frown and ask, "Girl, you haven't captured that kid Fu Jiuli yet, have you?"

"Ah?" Shen Nanxing was stunned.

"If not, why didn't he come with you today?"

When Shen Nanxing heard this, the smile on his face dimmed.

The old doctor shook his head: "Tsk tsk, you are useless, not even close to your aunt. When your aunt was pursuing me, she was..."

"Shen Nanqiang!"

"Get out of here!"

Mrs. Wen Xiang slammed the table, stood up, kicked the old doctor on the buttocks, and kicked him out of the house.

The old doctor stumbled several steps outside the house before he regained his balance. He snorted heavily, "Those scholars are right. Only women and villains are difficult to raise!"

"I am a magnanimous person and will not argue with you!"

After saying this, he put his hands behind his back and left with a proud and heroic look.

Madam Wenxiang put her hands on her hips and asked, "Where are you going?"

The old doctor turned around and glared at her: "Go up the mountain to collect herbs."

After a pause, he continued, "Didn't you say that your newly developed poison was still missing an ingredient, the cockcrow grass?"

Madam Wenxiang raised her eyebrows and said, "Go!"

"Hmph!" The old doctor's dissatisfied snort could be heard from afar.

There were only two women left in the house, one old and one young.

Madam Wenxiang picked up the tea in front of her, took a sip, and narrowed her eyes in satisfaction.

The shade is just right and the temperature is just right.

She took two more sips of tea, looked at the little girl sitting opposite her, and cleared her throat: "Ahem, that..."

"Auntie does have some experience in pursuing men..."
