She got pregnant after the swap marriage, and the scumbag's family regretted it so much they cr

That night, Lu Huan indeed didn't sleep for long.

She also learned something new—no matter how long you sleep in the afternoon, when you're extremely tired, you can still fall asleep instantly.

Even though she was the one who consumed the power crystal core, why did the men usually have the upper hand?

She always had to beg for mercy before the man would let her go.

Lu Huan slept until the beginning of Si Shi (9 o'clock). It was still gray outside, and she thought it was only Chen Shi (8 o'clock).

"What time is it?" Lu Huan involuntarily raised her voice.

He Niang handed over a cup of warm water: "Master, it's already 1:15 AM. Breakfast is still warming on the stove! Please have a cup of water first, and I'll bring it to you right away."

Lu Huan blushed: "Did your mother-in-law say anything?"

He Niang smiled even more ambiguously: "Don't worry, Master. The young master personally delivered breakfast to the backyard and even took on the task of refurbishing the old furniture. Madam is preoccupied with the Second Master's affairs; she has no time for you!"

The son-in-law is quite considerate. He's just a bit reckless; newlyweds shouldn't be dragging things out for so long. The landlord even has some bruises now!

"What nonsense are you talking about!" Lu Huan's cheeks grew even hotter. "You need to tell Ayan this!"

Even though that person had just broken his vows, he insisted on going three or four times before he would stop. Yet, the next day he was still full of energy, as if he wasn't the one who had been up all night.

How infuriating!

Lu Huan became increasingly angry as she thought about it, so she added a lot more spiritual spring water to her teacup. The soreness in her body lessened considerably, and she no longer felt sore all over with the slightest movement as before.

"Hey! We should talk to the son-in-law about it."

He Niang wasn't entirely ignorant about Gaojia Village. She had heard a lot of gossip from the older women and knew quite a bit about Gao Yan's past.

The landlord and his son-in-law are a pitiful couple, but the son-in-law seems to be in a worse situation. He is neither loved by his father nor his mother, so he inevitably needs some advice from someone who has been through it all.

She helped Lu Huan out of bed, then handed her clean clothes from a nearby shelf. After helping Lu Huan get dressed, she went to the kitchen to get Lu Huan's breakfast.

Lu Huan was exhausted after working late into the night and was quite hungry, so she drank her porridge without even lifting her head.

"By the way, where's Ayan?"

She remembered mentioning to Gao Yan last night that they were going to enter Yanjing City today, but she didn't know if Gao Yan had taken it to heart.

"The son-in-law instructed that he should first send the old furniture to the carpenter's house in the village. After he returned, he would accompany the employer to the city."

The son-in-law also said that he had already told his wife that he might not be able to make it back for lunch today, so he wouldn't be coming home for dinner.

Lu Huan was somewhat surprised. Zhou Shi had always treated Gao Yan like a servant, so why was she being so generous all of a sudden?

"Your mother-in-law agreed so easily?"

"How could that be! The son-in-law said he would do the furniture renovation himself and that it wouldn't cost the family any money, so the wife agreed."

Lu Huan was no longer surprised. Zhou Shi never acted without expecting something in return, so A Yan must have promised some benefits, otherwise she wouldn't have agreed so easily.

She waved her hand, signaling He Niang to go out and get busy, and began to plan the banquet for the twelfth day.

In her previous life in Jinling, she had organized many banquets, but this was her first time hosting one in this courtyard. She couldn't make it too shabby, nor could she let Madam Zhou treat her like a sucker.

When Gao Yan pushed open the door and walked in, this was the scene he saw—Lu Huan was sitting by the window, her chin resting on her hand, her delicate eyebrows slightly furrowed, making one want to reach out and smooth away her worries.

Feeling the cool, rough fingertips touch her brow, Lu Huan instinctively fell backward.

Gao Yan suddenly lost his balance and leaned forward as well. The two were now only a fist's distance apart.

Their eyes met, and the man's sharp aura filled Lu Huan's nostrils, instantly making the air hot and ambiguous.

Gao Yan slowly approached and gently touched Lu Huan's soft lips: "Have you finished eating?"

"What to eat?"

Seeing the confusion in Lu Huan's eyes, the man found it extremely amusing and laughed heartily: "Of course I'm asking if you've finished breakfast. Are you inviting me... to eat you?"

"You!" Lu Huan's face flushed, and she shoved Gao Yan away abruptly.

His smile was so irritating, showing off his big white teeth, that Lu Huan pointed at him angrily and said, "You lecher! You're so improper!"

"Don't be angry, don't be angry." Gao Yan's smile faded, and he leaned closer to Lu Huan. "Don't worry, only you can see my lecherous side!"

The two were so affectionate that Shi Gu felt a little uncomfortable. He looked up at the sky, his little head full of confusion.

He Niang patted him: "What are you daydreaming about! The master and son-in-law are waiting for you to catch the carriage!"

Shi Gu pointed to the carriage and asked in a low voice, "Mother, don't you think the master and son-in-law are acting a little strange?"

"Idiot! Just keep driving! Why are you asking so many questions!"

Watching the mule cart disappear into the distance, He Niang smiled and went into the courtyard. It seemed some things could be prepared well in advance!

The five shops they bought earlier were easy to find tenants with the help of Granny Sun. The six shops they acquired from the Prince and Princess of Yan were even simpler; with the Prince's mansion's help, they could simply change the leases.

The most troublesome thing is actually the three shops that once belonged to the Cheng family.

Previously, when Sun Ya Po hired people to clean, she was approached by several groups of people who inquired about her, and some even came to her door to threaten her.

However, she was no pushover in Yanjing City. She simply moved out of the Prince's Mansion, which scared those people away.

But seeing their persistent attitude, Granny Sun knew she would definitely encounter them again in the future.

Just then, Lu Huan and his group finished signing the new lease and walked out of the government office when they were met by several groups of people.

Some came to help after hearing the news, while others looked unfriendly. Even the Li family sent Li Rong to stand with Du Wei.

Among the crowd, Lu Huan also saw Lu Chengde, who was watching her walk out of the government office with a complicated expression.

Before they could speak, Lu Huan stepped forward and said, "What a coincidence! I know why you've come, but I definitely won't sell these three shops. If you're interested, you can rent them from me."

One of the men said in a sinister tone, "Gao Lushi, aren't you afraid that with this dry weather, the shopkeeper might not be careful and burn the shop down? Then it will be worthless."

"Which family are you from?"

"I'm in charge of the funeral arrangements for the Song family. Who knows, you might even be asking to come to our Song family then!"

Ah, no wonder it's called "Song Dynasty Funeral Busy".

Twenty years later, not only did they completely overturn the Cheng family's kindness, but they also came to Lu Huan, a descendant of the Cheng family, to coerce him.

Great! Absolutely fantastic!

In Lu Huan's mental notebook, the Song family had already been ranked first.

She planned to find an opportunity to drug Gao Yan and then deal with the Song family. The Li family, as well as the Du and Chen families, which she had previously planned to deal with, would have to be put aside for now in the face of the Song family.
