The three of them entered the restaurant, and a neat servant came to lead the way. He called Madam all the way, which made Aunt Su blush. The best place she had ever seen was the Shen Mansion. She never thought that she could come to such a paradise on earth. She had never dared to think about it before.

The interior of the restaurant is designed in the shape of a U, with stairs on all four sides, so you can walk in any direction. Hundreds of butterflies are hung from top to bottom in the middle. Although they look like they are made of paper, each one is lifelike, making people feel as if they are in a fantasy world. Various flowers in full bloom are hung on the outside of the railings, one pot after another, which is beautiful!

The servant stopped at the private room on the third floor, knocked on the door first, then reached out and pushed it open. As soon as the door opened, Aunt Su burst into tears.

"Ying... Yingqiu..."

"Sister, sister...sister-in-law, brother...this...Xinyuan Xinrong...is this true? Is this you? Ah...you..."

The brothers and sisters, sisters-in-law and their husbands hugged each other, and none of them could hold back their tears, crying heart-wrenchingly. Fortunately, this private room was soundproofed, otherwise outsiders would probably suspect that there was a murder in the house.

This was the first time in nearly twenty years that the brothers and sisters got together. If you counted carefully, they hadn't seen each other for more than ten years. The younger ones didn't dare to disturb them. They waited until they had cried enough before helping them sit down.

"Yingqiu, I've really wronged you these years. If it weren't for you, Dad wouldn't have lived so many more years."

"Brother, it's my duty. Besides, the Shen family treats me well."

"What's good? If you're doing well, how could we not see you for so many years?"

Thinking of the suffering his sister had endured, Su Zhaoyu felt extremely guilty.

"Stop talking about this. Why are you all here? What's going on?"

"Aunt, this is all thanks to Yan'er. Now that my aunt and I have moved to Shangjing City, it won't be that difficult for us to meet again in the future."

Su Xinyuan brought a cup of hot tea to Aunt Su.

"Yan'er?"

Aunt Su looked up at Shen Nanyue with suspicion. She knew that her daughter was always busy, but she didn't know what she was busy with. It seemed that these people in the Su family were the result of her busy comings and goings. But for so many people to settle down in Shangjing, it would cost a lot of money.

"Mom, the noodle shop you opened was quite profitable, so I bought a small courtyard for my aunt and uncle to live in. Now this restaurant, the grain shop on Lianhua Street, and the milk tea shop on Xihe Street are all ours. So, our Su family's life will get better and better in the future. My uncle, aunt, aunt, cousin, and brother will all have a stable life. You don't have to worry about anything in the Shen family anymore. Just be yourself."

"Is this... is this true?"

"Yingqiu, you're sitting here, and you still don't believe your eyes? You two children are truly the pride of our Su family. Even... even my escape from the Cao family is thanks to them. I really thank you, sister. Thank you for allowing me to escape from suffering and live like this."

Thinking of her past, Su Yinghe's eyes instantly turned red again, and big tears fell down like water.

Aunt Su never thought that her daughter had done so many things secretly. She felt worried, scared, and relieved. She hugged her sister and wiped away her tears for a while.

"Aunt, mother, please stop crying. Your uncle and aunt can't help crying. Today is a good day for reunion. From today on, our future life will be smooth sailing without any more difficulties."

"Yes, yes, Yunzhi is right. I'm happy today and I'll have a drink too. Brother, sister-in-law, sister, come on!"

The atmosphere in the private room instantly became warm. In her previous life, Shen Nanyan had never experienced such a scene until her death. Even the Shen family's reunion dinner at the end of the year was not so lively and harmonious. Shen Nanyan also rarely saw the shyness of a young girl on Aunt Su's face. In front of her brothers and sisters, she seemed to have returned to her childhood, laughing and playing to her heart's content, no longer afraid of anything.

Living this life over again, all my efforts are for this moment.

Shen Nanyan gently clenched her palms.

【Wu You, thank you! 】

A light rain was coming, dripping onto the windowsill, and the wind became a little cooler.

The imperial examination in September is just around the corner. Shen Yunyi and Shen Yunzhi will both take part in the examination this year, so everyone in the mansion puts the two of them first, and they do their best to take care of their food, clothing and other expenses. Aunt Lan also keeps an eye on the servants, and dares not let them slack off in the slightest.

Of course, Aunt Lan had her reasons for doing this.

She has no son of her own and can only rely on Shen Zongyuan. However, accidents are inevitable when one eats grains. That's why Aunt Lan has been getting close to Aunt Su recently, intending to win her over. She and Mrs. Lu are incompatible, so naturally she won't dream of relying on Shen Yunyi in the future. Then the only choice left is Shen Yunzhi. As long as she can win over Aunt Su, overthrow Mrs. Lu, and let Shen Yunzhi become the head of the family, she can live a stable life in the future.

Aunt Su naturally understood the reason behind this, but she did not refuse. If Aunt Lan had the ability to push Shen Yunzhi to the position of mistress and ensure that she would have a worry-free life, it would not be a difficult task. However, Aunt Su would not interfere in this matter, so it would depend on what Aunt Lan did.

Before the imperial examination, Shen Yunzhi locked himself in his room day and night, and seemed to be possessed by a demon. Seeing him working so hard, Shen Zongyuan was very pleased and felt from the bottom of his heart that his son had turned over a new leaf.

But on the day before the imperial examination, Shen Yunzhi suddenly suffered from vomiting and diarrhea, had a high fever, and fainted several times. Aunt Su's tears never stopped. Even the old lady of Luxiangzhai was alarmed and came to guard his bedside. Aunt Lan was even more anxious. She asked people to invite four or five doctors, just hoping that Shen Yunzhi would not delay the imperial examination tomorrow.

But Shen Nanyan stood in the corner, staring at the pale-faced Shen Yunzhi lying on the bed in a daze. She always felt that something was wrong. Because of Lu's flattery, Shen Yunzhi had lived a very comfortable life over the years and had never been sick. How could he suddenly fall ill at this time? Shen Nanyan turned and walked out of the house. She glanced at Wei Ze when she passed by the door, and then the two met tacitly in the backyard.

Shen Nanyan went straight to the point.

"what happened?"

Wei Ze turned his head and looked around before speaking.

"Recently, the young master has mostly locked himself in his room and refused to let anyone in. But last night, he suddenly ordered someone to send in a few buckets of cold water, and he was like this at daybreak."

"Brother, have you been acting unusually lately?"

"Nothing special, just... just seems a little anxious."

"I haven't asked you these questions, and you haven't told me any of them. Go back."

After Wei Ze left, Shen Nanyan stood in the backyard for a long time, reflecting on everything she had done. Perhaps she shouldn't have planned her brother's future according to her own ideas. As long as he didn't end up dead on the streets like in his previous life, there was nothing wrong with him living an ordinary life.
