April in Guangling is the time of late spring.

Standing on the bank of Peach Blossom Creek and looking around, the Peach Blossom Mountain opposite, which is not very high, is green, and the nearby barren farmland is even more green and shaded, with many unknown flowers even blooming in it.

Li Chenan spent more than an hour here, walking around on both sides of the stream, and finally selected a location against the mountain.

The main reason is that it is easier to dig wine cellars here.

In addition, once the brewery is renovated and the outer wall is built in the future, Peach Blossom Creek can also become a natural barrier.

After all, safety comes first.

After all, this is his first real property in this world.

Although the biggest boss is the girl next to him, sooner or later, this girl will be his own.

Zhongli Ruoshui beside him was also walking with him like this. She didn't know where he was, so she thought it was good to walk like this, very peaceful and reassuring.

There was also a pleasure that she had never felt before.

She really hopes to stay with this person for the rest of her life.

Just like grandma and grandpa.

After surveying the terrain here, the two got on the carriage and headed towards Peach Blossom Villa.

When the two walked into the main courtyard of the villa along the peach forest path, there was a person sitting in the pavilion in the main courtyard.

A woman!

A middle-aged woman who is gorgeously dressed and has extremely exquisite accessories.

Zhongli Ruoshui's heart tightened, and he tugged on Li Chenan's sleeve. The two stood a foot apart in front of the noble lady.

A maid bowed and stood beside the lady, holding a tray in her hand.

Another maid carefully picked up a jar from the tray and carefully placed it in front of the woman. She opened the lid of the jar and saw a wave of hot air rising up.

"Madam, the newly stewed bird's nest has been added with a little Fritillaria from Shuzhou. The shopkeeper of Huichun Hall said it has the effect of clearing away heat, moistening the lungs, relieving cough and reducing phlegm. Madam, please try it while it's hot."

"Well, let it go..."

The middle-aged woman looked up at Zhongli Ruoshui and Li Chenan at this moment. She ignored the dissatisfaction on Zhongli Ruoshui's face at this moment. Her eyes fell on Li Chenan's face, and she just glanced at them.

She withdrew her gaze, frowned slightly, lifted up her sleeves with one hand and stretched out three fingers of her other hand to pinch the spoon in the jar.

After gently stirring the jar twice, he spoke:

"This is a bird's nest sent from Annan. It sells for ten taels of silver per cup in Annan."

"Annan is more than three thousand miles away from Guangling. I sent a cup of twenty taels of silver to Guangling."

"The Fritillaria in the world are the most abundant in Shuzhou. They are collected in the deep mountains and sent to Guangling for a penny worth two taels of silver."

"I heard that you opened a tavern in Erjinggou Alley, selling paintings like Pingchun... I heard that your wine sells for two hundred cents per tael, and you can buy ten jins a day and earn nearly twenty taels of silver."

"Compared to ordinary people, it's pretty good, but it's only worth this can of bird's nest soup in front of my wife!"

She raised her head and looked at Li Chenan again, her eyes narrowed slightly and her gaze became a little harsh.

However, Li Chenan still stood with a smile on his face, even looking at her like this.

Without Zhongli Ruoshui's introduction, he could guess that this lady should be Zhongli Ruoshui's mother.

"mother……!"

Zhongli Ruoshui was a little anxious and stamped her feet, "What are you talking about?"

"Why did you come to my Peach Blossom Villa?"

Mrs. Zhongli glanced at Zhongli Ruoshui, "If mother doesn't come... I'm afraid you have really found a good son-in-law for our Zhongli Mansion!"

Li Chenan was startled and turned to Zhongli Ruoshui.

Zhongli Ruoshui curled her lips and had no time to explain to Li Chenan. She took a step forward and stared at her mother:

"This is my business!"

"Grandma has long said that I make my own decisions in my own affairs!"

"Father has never objected to this, so why do you need to interfere?"

Mrs. Zhongli raised her eyebrows: "What? Do you really think you have grown up? Do you really think you have wings?"

"I gave birth to you and I can't control you anymore?"

"What kind of existence is Zhongli Mansion? Can a poor young man like him step in?"

Mrs. Zhongli's voice became louder and her mood gradually became a little more excited.

"What's wrong with you learning from your grandma? Why did you learn her paranoid temperament?"

"Isn't it enough that you made a joke about choosing a son-in-law based on literature in Huaping Lake? You actually dared to bring a man back!"

"There are countless men in the world, and there are even more good men! But what about him?"

Mrs. Zhongli raised her finger and pointed at Li Chenan, "Who is he?"

"He was kicked out of the house by the Li family, went to a gambling house and owed a lot of gambling debt, and it was his father who helped him pay it off!"

"You keep saying that he has undergone tremendous changes, but to me, it's all a joke!"

"What's the difference between selling steamed cakes and straw cakes and selling wine?"

"What's the difference between making two taels of silver a day and making twenty taels of silver a day?"

"You told me that Zhongli's house is short of money or something?"

Mrs. Zhongli took a deep breath, leaned back on the chair, and looked at Li Chenan, her eyes full of warning: "Stop pestering my daughter!"

"To tell you the truth, you don't deserve it!"

"These people all hope to be able to climb a big tree and hope that they can climb up the tree. But few people have ever thought that such a tree can be climbed by ordinary people?"

"Don't you think about how many pounds you have? Don't you worry about falling from the tree and dying?"

"Sell your wine well. Zhongli Mansion purchases a lot of wine every month. It can be bought by anyone. You can even sell it to Zhongli Mansion at a higher price. Make more money as soon as possible. Go find a wine as soon as possible.

A woman who matches your status."

"My daughter will enter the palace in the future. When you see her from now on, you have to kneel on the ground and call her empress!"

Zhongli Ruoshui was about to speak, but Li Chenan also stepped forward and grabbed her.

There was no trace of depression on his face after the blow, and he still had that warm smile.

He now knows some things, for example, the girl next to him is Zhongli Ruoshui, the third lady of Zhongli Mansion.

He didn't complain that she concealed her identity, and even thought that this was the girl's kindness.

Because the threshold of Zhongli Mansion is indeed very high, enough to scare away many young people.

It's just that her worries are a bit unnecessary. In Li Chenan's eyes, that threshold does not exist.

He felt that this girl was his only love since he came into this world, so he would not allow anyone to take away his love.

Zhongli Ruoshui, who had a grievance on his face and tears welling up in his eyes, casually stretched out a hand to hold her hand.

Under the shocked gaze of Mrs. Zhongli, he raised his other hand to wipe the tears from the corner of Zhongli Ruoshui's eyes.

"Don't cry. If you cry, you will turn into a little cat, which will be bad."

Zhongli Ruoshui laughed out loud and glared at Li Chenan, thinking that this guy was still in the mood to joke at this time.

"Madam," Li Chenan said calmly to Mrs. Zhongli, "Actually... you are not worthy of being her mother!"
