Li Xiuniang doesn't want her sister to marry into a high family, because she feels there are too many unknowns.

It's still fresh at the moment. Mr. Xiao sees that Sister Nian likes her everywhere, but what about in the future?

What would her daughter do if he changed his mind?

The young master in Gaomen Courtyard has money and leisure, so it is easy to do mischief outside.

Unlike the farm boy, who works hard all day long to fill his stomach, he can fall asleep as soon as he hits the pillow at night, and he can't wake up even after dragging people out and selling them.

But she was reluctant to let Sister Nian marry into a farm family.

worry! !

After Shen Nian entered the room, he remembered the most important thing he hadn't said.

He turned around and came out again.

She scratched the door frame and said loudly: "Father, mother, there is another good thing! I heard from Xiao Jinzhi that the emperor has made me the county head, and the imperial decree will arrive in a few days..."

Shen Er and Li Xiuniang: "..."

His mind was blank and his eyes were stiff.

Seeing that his parents didn't speak for a long time, the smile on Shen Nian's face was like a wilted flower.

She puffed her cheeks and closed the door.

My parents are so calm...

The door has just been closed.

Wow!

After the teacup was shattered, another thing ended its career.

Li Xiuniang came to her senses and wanted to ask again, but saw that the little girl holding the door frame was gone.

"..."

"This unlucky kid dares to say anything and has no sense of humor." Li Xiuniang smiled stiffly and muttered in a low voice: "The ladies of the county magistrate's family are not even the head of the county..."

When she looked up and saw the thoughtful look on Shen Er's face, she felt a little upset, "You don't really believe it, do you?"

"What can't you believe?" Shen Er asked without answering.

County Lord!

The breath he had been holding back due to shock was released suddenly. Shen Er's eyes brightened astonishingly, and he stood up suddenly.

"I'll go to the clan leader and ask..." He swallowed hard, a solemn look on his face, "...what should I pay attention to when receiving the imperial edict."

After finishing speaking, he left the house in a hurry.

Li Xiuniang: "!!"

After sitting there for a while, she couldn't sit still anymore and ran to the house where Shen Nian was, banging on the door.

"Sister Nian, please come out. Mom has something to ask you."

Shen Nian was tinkering with things in the space when he heard a knock on the door and quickly put them away.

Open the door.

"What's the matter?" she asked.

The door opened, and a face like a little cat appeared in front of Li Xiuniang.

"Hey, what's wrong with your face?" As she said that, Li Xiuniang took out her handkerchief and wiped the blackness on her daughter's face, "It's so dark. There's no pot in this room for you to pick out..."

Shen Nian stood obediently, with an innocent look on his face.

There are all kinds of things in the space, and I didn’t pay attention to any dusty ones. Maybe I accidentally touched them just now.

"Mom, what do you want from me?"

After wiping off, Li Xiuniang put away the black-stained handkerchief and asked about the business, "You just said that the holy decree for you to be named the county leader is on the way, is it true?"

"Of course." Shen Nian nodded.

It turns out that it’s not that my mother didn’t respond, but that she didn’t believe what she said...

"Oh, you should be busy." Li Xiuniang responded in a daze, and then walked away in a trance.

Shen Nian: "..."

-

the other side.

Shen Er came to the patriarch's house like a gust of wind.

The children of the patriarch's family are all smart people. They took advantage of the east wind in the village and allocated land to grow medicinal materials, and they started to grow in just one year.

The house also has a large yard, and the windows are bright and clean, making it comfortable to look at.

The old patriarch was lying on the rocking chair under the grape trellis, with a loyal dog nestling next to him, very comfortable.

"Uncle Clan Elder, I'm here..." Shen Er's voice came out before he entered the room.

Patriarch Shen used to be very old and wobbly when walking. Now that the family has money, he takes supplements and eats what he needs. Now his body and bones are much better than before, and his ears are also flexible.

Hearing the sound coming from the door, the old man slowly raised his eyelids, glanced at the door and closed his eyes again.

Shen Er entered the courtyard comfortably, his eyes fell on the steaming tea cup on the stone table for a moment, the corners of his mouth raised, and he said deliberately: "Asleep? I also wanted to ask what I need to prepare to receive the imperial edict. Oops, it seems that I can Let Brother Kun ask his master..."

Patriarch Shen suddenly opened his eyes, his eyes were clear and there was no trace of sleepiness.

"Why receive the imperial edict?"

His eyes were burning and he felt a bit oppressive.

Shen Er's body tightened inexplicably, and his posture became more obedient.

Afraid that the old patriarch's crutch would fly towards him, he didn't even dare to let go. He said, "My daughter, Sister Nian has been made the county head by the emperor. The imperial edict will arrive in a few days."

Patriarch Shen was shocked.

Unable to sit still, he stood up, his cloudy eyes filled with disbelief, "Seriously?"

"How dare I make fun of you with this matter." Shen Er said with an honest face.

Patriarch Shen looked at him steadily for a moment, then smiled and laughed.

"Okay! That's great!" The old patriarch laughed louder and louder, "The village is getting better and better! We still have to rely on you juniors."

After laughing for a while, he suppressed the ecstasy that kept welling up in his heart and said with emotion: "You are a lucky boy."

This is to praise Shen Er for picking up a good daughter.

"Not bad, really good."

The old patriarch is well-informed, and there are few people he can like. This is the first time he praises someone so straightforwardly...

Shen Erle's grin stretched to the back of his head, "I'm really lucky, and it's all thanks to my daughter's guidance. My sister Nian is really powerful when she becomes a master purely through strength."

Accept the compliment without blushing at all.

After drinking a cup of good tea from the old patriarch, he was in high spirits and looked quite high-spirited.

"Uncle Elder, please tell me what preparations we need to make to receive the imperial edict. Do we need to prepare the incense table? But we have to kneel down to thank you. What kind of posture is more suitable for us to kneel...?"

The questions were overwhelming and the words came thick and fast.

Fortunately, Patriarch Shen was in a good mood at the moment, so he didn't give him two crutches.

He patiently answered Shen Er's questions one by one.

"... If you don't mention the matter of receiving the order, I will almost forget it." Patriarch Shen's voice was low, with a deep sigh, "In order to receive the order, the main entrance and main hall must be opened, and the incense table should be prepared in the hall..."

he said as he recalled.

He heard these from his ancestors. His great-grandfather, grandfather, and father all looked forward to the day when the Shen family would rise...

Fortunately, the Shen family finally has a stunningly talented Shen Yanshen.

Everyone thought that Yan Shen would be the opportunity for the Shen family to regain its glory, but who knew...

On that day, he will come back with wounds all over his body... and in embarrassment.

This is the person they sent out with the whole family's efforts. Who among the elders of the Shen family doesn't feel distressed and uncomfortable when he becomes like that?

But they had no connections and no money, so they couldn't help him even if they wanted to.

They could only watch Yan Shen, who was full of talents but useless, huddled in the mountains. To save his life, the village did not even dare to mention his name.

Thinking of his eldest brother who died of depression because he was too powerless, the old patriarch felt extremely hateful.

He took a deep breath, suppressed the anger in his heart, and warned: "Pay attention to what you should pay attention to, and be respectful to the master who is delivering the order. Nothing will happen."

Shen Er nodded, "Yeah, I'll note it down."
