Lin Zai did not go to the village for some days because of his injury.
Wu Yin's injury has healed. She doesn't know about Lin Zai, and since she hasn't seen A Zai and Sheng'er in the past few days, she can't help but feel worried.
"What's wrong?" He Lianxuan asked when he saw Wu Yin was restless.
"Azai and Sheng'er haven't come over recently. I'm worried that something will happen."
"Don't worry, Miss Lin is the daughter of a general. With so many people protecting her, what could happen? As for Miss Lin Sheng, she has no grudges against anyone and will be fine."
"Um."
He Lianxuan knew Wu Yin's temperament well and knew that she would not listen to his advice at all.
"They are lucky to have a friend like you!"
Wu Yin shook her head, "Young master, it's the opposite. I should be lucky to have friends like them! Ah Zai and Sheng'er have never cared about my identity. They treat me sincerely and make me no longer lonely. I can meet them." It’s my blessing, but it’s a pity that I can’t do anything for them due to my low status!”
"Look, you are thinking nonsense again!" He Lianxuan scolded softly!
Wu Yin lowered her head. Sometimes she really felt that she was useless.
He Lianxuan hugged Wu Yin, "Sincere concern between friends is the most important thing!"
"But I also want to do something for them."
"You have done a lot. If they know that you have such thoughts, they will not be happy! Be good, don't think about it again!"
Wu Yin nodded, "I hope they are just delayed by something and nothing else!"
"I will definitely do it!" He Lianxuan comforted.
~~~
Lin had too many things on his mind.
He had promised Che'er long ago that he would take him to see Sister Wu Yin, but since she hadn't gone there these days, Che'er must be very anxious.
"Ah Zai, it's me!" Yin Tianxun suddenly knocked on the door.
"Enter!"
"Are you feeling better?" Yin Tianxun asked worriedly.
"much better!"
"That's good!"
Yin Tianxun would come here every day, not only once, but every time he would ask the same question first. Lin Zai was very impatient, but he just didn't show it.
"Don't you have anything else to do? The Emperor didn't ask you to come to the Western Region just for fun!"
"Isn't there still third brother here?"
"Does the fifth prince have to rely on the third prince for everything? He also has a lot to do every day!"
"I know that Third Brother is busy, so I'm afraid that I will be a disservice, so I don't want to cause trouble for him! Third Brother is so powerful, he doesn't need me anymore!"
Lin Zai sneered, "As we all know, the emperor's most respected and favorite prince is you, but you are indeed powerful. Everything is done by the third prince. You enjoy your leisure time. Anyway, in the end, it is you who the emperor praises!"
"Who do you think I am!" Yin Tianxun's face became serious. He didn't want to be misunderstood by Lin Zai, so he explained seriously: "Although I was born in the royal family, I am by no means a person who is good at calculating. My mother, concubine and I We are favored, but we have no other ideas, as long as everything is content with the status quo! I know you are aggrieved for the third brother. Whether you believe it or not, I really respect the third brother. In fact, I can't understand why my father doesn't get close to me. Third brother, this is not my fault! As for what third brother has done, I will report it to my father truthfully and will never take any credit. Third brother’s ability is obvious to all, and he is the most capable among all the princes. One! Ah Zai, I am self-aware and know what I am suitable for and what I am not suitable for!"
Lin Zai was caught off guard. This was the first time she saw Yin Tianxun like this.
To be honest, she had always been biased against Yin Tianxun, but seeing how sincere he was, she was still willing to believe him.
Even so, Lin Zai still said stubbornly: "Since the Fifth Prince is so magnanimous, why do you care about what I say?"
"That's different!"
"As long as you have a clear conscience, it doesn't matter what others say?"
"Anyway, I just don't want you to misunderstand!"
Lin is different!
He doesn't care what others say, but he can't stand the people he likes misunderstanding him.
"Okay, let's not talk about this anymore!" Lin Zai didn't want to continue talking about this, "Fifth Prince, you have nothing to do anyway, why don't you do something for me!"
"What?" Yin Tianxun immediately became energetic. This was the first time that Ah Zai asked him for help.
"Go find Sheng'er and ask her to take you to the village. You can bring Granny Cui and Che'er to the Li Mansion!"
"Why did you suddenly remember this?"
"I haven't been there for the past few days, so they must be very anxious. Besides, I promised Che'er to take him to see Sister Wu Yin, so I will simply take them to the Li Mansion this time, and then bring Sister Wu Yin tomorrow. Let them have a good time together.”
"You are thoughtful. Miss Wu Yin is really lucky to have a friend like you!"
"I am also very lucky to meet my sister and Sheng'er!" Lin Zai smiled, and she asked Yin Tianxun: "Can you help me with this?"
"Help, I'll definitely help, but you have to promise me something first."
"What?"
Yin Tianxun became a little nervous, and Lin Zai asked impatiently: "What on earth is going on?"
"It's not a big deal. When I was studying, I also liked to imitate those literati and give myself elegant titles, so I chose the name Yin Ran. Can you just call me that from now on?"
"I'm just an ordinary citizen, I don't dare..."
Before Lin Zai finished speaking, Yin Tianxun interrupted: "If you don't agree, then I will order you as a prince!"
Lin Zai then thought about it and realized that this was not a big deal, so he reluctantly said: "Okay!"
"It's agreed."
"Yes, Fifth Prince!"
Yin Tianxun pretended to be unhappy and said, "What fifth prince, what should you call me?"
"Yi Ran." Lin Zai said without emotion.
"Well, let's keep calling it that way from now on!"
Although he knew that Lin Zai was forced to call himself this, Yin Tianxun was still very happy.
He has long thought about letting the girl he likes call him this in the future. When he heard it today, it was really beautiful.
"Can you go now?"
"Don't worry, I'll go find Miss Sheng'er right away. Just wait for Che'er and Granny Cui at home!" After saying that, Yin Tianxun ran out happily.
You are such an adult, why do you still act like a child?
Lin Zai smiled helplessly.

Minglan was dressed up beautifully. She was going out for a walk today.
I just came out of a jewelry store and unexpectedly met someone I never wanted to see again.
"Minglan?"
She didn't want to say hello at first, but Jing Yan had already walked over to say hello to her. Minglan could no longer pretend not to see her, so she pretended to be surprised and said, "Sister Jing Yan, what a coincidence!"
"We haven't seen each other for a long time. How about we find a place to sit for a while?"
"OK!"
Minglan was not interested at all.
Anyway, it’s just a joke!
They found a teahouse. Jing Yan looked at Minglan carefully and said with emotion: "Lan'er, you haven't changed at all, you are still so beautiful!"
"Sister is still as beautiful as ever." Minglan replied politely.
Everyone likes to hear others praise themselves. Jing Yan smiled and held Minglan's hand, "I have been away from Li Chun Yuan for many years. I am really happy to meet you today!"
"Sister, you are lucky. You can meet a husband who is willing to redeem your life and marry you! You must be very happy now, right?"
"It's not bad! I'm just average-looking. If I don't meet my husband, I might grow old slowly. By the time I have no use value at all, I can only spend the rest of my life in misery! Speaking of this, I really I am very grateful to my husband. Although my life is dull now, I am still happy and stable!" Jing Yan said sincerely.
Her husband is just an ordinary person, but he does not dislike her and is willing to give her a home. Compared with most women in the brothel, she is already lucky!
"As long as your sister is doing well, Lan'er is so happy for you!"
"Thank you!" Jing Yan said gratefully, "Recalling the time in Lichun Courtyard, it feels like a dream!"
"If only it was just a dream!" Minglan replied!
Why didn't she hope that this was a cruel dream? After waking up from the dream, she was the daughter of an innocent family with parents who loved her very much. Her family didn't have to be rich, as long as it was warm and loving, it was enough!
"Lan'er, what are you thinking about?" Jing Yan asked with concern when she saw that Minglan's face was not very good.
"Nothing!" Minglan immediately put on a fake smile.
Jingyan was one of the few people who took care of her when she first entered Lichun Hospital. She was grateful to Jingyan before she had experienced the world, but it was Jingyan who made her realize once again how ugly this world is!
At that time, several famous girls were wronged and wanted to take out their anger on this little girl. They made up some unfounded stories, just to deliberately want Mother Liu to punish them.
Jing Yan clearly knew that she was wronged, but when Liu's mother asked her, not only did she not defend herself, but she also joined in with others!
There is no doubt that Minglan was severely punished in the end!
Later, Jing Yan went to find her, and she cried and begged for forgiveness. Minglan watched silently, unmoved at all!
Everything is fake, there is no true love in this world!
Jing Yan said that she had no choice but to live a hard life. She always looked at the faces of those people, so how could she dare to offend them for her own sake?
So we can only sacrifice the innocent her?
Look, people are so selfish. For their own sake, anyone can be betrayed and anyone can be abandoned!
Minglan felt even more desperate. From now on, she would never be foolish enough to trust others.
Minglan didn't get into trouble with Jing Yan. She held back the disgust in her heart and smiled and said it didn't matter!
After that, she became better and better at disguising herself!
As far as Minglan is concerned, God's only care for her is to let her meet Mr. Jin. That is her final salvation. Minglan will never give up no matter what.
She would do anything to catch him.
Jing Yan didn't know what Minglan was thinking. Seeing that Minglan had nothing to say to her, she felt a little sad.
It seems that a lot of things have really changed.
"Are you out to buy something?"
Minglan nodded.
Jing Yan had long noticed that Minglan had bought a lot of things, and she couldn't help but advise: "I think you should save more now to prepare for future emergencies! Beauty ages easily, especially in our industry. Yes, you can’t live on your face for the rest of your life, you should make more plans for yourself in the future!”
"Sister Jing Yan, do you think my expenses are too much?" Minglan said with some displeasure.
"That was not what I meant!"
Minglan didn't wait for her to explain, "Yes, I am just a humble person, but I am also a woman. I also love beauty, decoration and dressing up! Is it just because of my low status that I don't deserve to have these beautiful things?" "
"Lan'er!"
Minglan didn't give Jing Yan a chance to speak, "It's already very difficult for me. Now I have to accept your lectures for even this little behavior of pleasing myself?"
"I'm not preaching to you!"
Jing Yan became sentimental, why did that pitiful little girl become so aggressive?
But she couldn't bear to blame. Everyone in this world has his or her own misfortune, and she had no right to interfere in other people's lives, so in the end she could only say: "I'm sorry, I was worrying so much!"
"Sister Jing Yan, whether it's good or bad, as long as it's something I want to do, I, Minglan, will do it without hesitation. Even if I fail in the end, I will never regret it! I don't want to let anyone else do it in my life. Pointing fingers, even if it is for the so-called good of me, it is not necessary, even if it is considered to be ungrateful, so what does it matter! In short, I will never wrong myself because of anyone! "
Minglan finally said what she had been hiding in her heart for a long time, and she felt extremely happy.
Jing Yan's heart was full of sadness, and after a long time she said slowly: "I overstepped, Lan'er, I have something else to do, so I'll go home first."
"good!"
After the people left and the tea cooled down, Minglan was the only one left, sitting there quietly.
