“What’s wrong?” Shen Qiuhua looked at her step-brother worriedly.

Shen Qiuhui hurriedly waved, saying, “No, it’s nothing. I just didn’t expect this wine to taste so good.”

He was so excited that he teared up. He took a deep breath and took another sip. This time, he did not gulp it down. Instead, he savored the flavor. “This is too delicious! ”

Shen Qiuhui could not care less about losing his composure. After all, he was genuine about the wine being delicious. He enjoyed drinking wine and would buy the best ones he could find.

However, those wines were nothing compared to the one Su Binglan had brewed. The wine he drank now was exceptional and second to none.

Su Fengmao laughed heartily. “You can drink more if you like it,

Brother-in-law. Here, I’ll refill your glass.”

He was forthright and hurriedly filled Shen Qiuhui’s glass. Su Fengmao felt good having someone to drink with. He was delighted and could not help but drink more.

Fortunately, the two older men were good drinkers. They ate while talking and drinking. Su Fengmao bragged about his daughter despite himself, “My daughter brewed this wine herself. She made many flavors, and this is just one of them.

“She also made medicinal wine, but the production of it is more complex, so she only made a few jars. She says medicinal wines can strengthen the body.

My waist and legs used to hurt, but not anymore.”

Shen Qiuhui looked at the wine jar. His eyes lit up, and he became excited.

The family ate until late at night, but they were all happy. After eating and drinking their fill, they returned to their rooms to rest.

However, Su Binglan and Luo Jin’an were not hurrying to sleep. Luo Jin’an placed firewood under the bed to warm it up while Su Binglan wrote her script under candlelight.

Time passed quickly, and it was almost time for the Lantern Festival. The weather would soon warm up. By then, the construction team would have finished building the grand theater.

Soon, the crew could perform in the theater or the streets whenever Su Teng Market opened. To be accurate, Su Binglan had to complete her script in advance for the crew to rehearse it.

Also, she would need to find management talents to open more factories and businesses. However, no family member could help her because they helped manage other things. It would also take time to train management talents.

Su Binglan sat at her desk with her chin resting on her hand. She was focused and thinking about something, so she failed to notice Luo Jin’an beside her.

He looked at Su Binglan’s expression and asked softly, “What are you thinking? You look like you have something on your mind.”

Su Binglan returned to her senses when she heard her husband’s voice, She said, “I considered building more shops and factories in the commercial street. I need someone to manage everything, but I don’t have many people. “Even if there are people, I can’t train them so quickly. I still need time to do that. I have much to do now, and training managers take too much time. It’ll be much more convenient if we finish building the management college.”

Luo Jin’an raised a brow when he heard that. He already had an idea. He stroked Su Binglan’s hair and said, “It’s getting late. Let’s get some rest first, okay?”

His voice was gentle and low, delightful to hear. It could quickly soothe Su

Binglan’s heart. She nodded, saying, “All right, let’s sleep.”

She knew if she stayed up all night, Luo Jin’an would stay up with her, too. She did not want her husband to stay up late and work so hard.

As the two lay on the heated brick bed, Su Binglan thought of something and said, “Uncle Qiuhui didn’t recognize you.”

During dinner, she feared Shen Qiuhui would recognize Luo Jin’an as Wei Jin’an, but it seemed he did not.

Luo Jin’an said, ‘Your uncle is the head of the Shen family. They’ve been keeping a low profile all these years, so they barely have contact with other families or forces.

“He only manages the family’s business well instead of contacting others. I’ve never seen him out and about before.’

“That’s true. You mostly guarded the border or fought in wars back then. Still,

Mohen recognized you, even though you rarely appeared in the capital.” “Yeah,” Luo Jin’an said, “I’ve never seen him and only realized he’s the young master of the Shen family and a disciple of the Legendary Medicine Valley.”

Su Binglan was slightly surprised. After some thought, she blinked and said, “Perhaps he saw you in the crowd when you returned to the capital in triumph.”

Usually, the general would ride his horse and bring his soldiers into the city whenever they won a battle and returned to the court. At that time, commoners would gather to watch.

It was like watching their heroes return. It was like Lin Zheng treating Wei Jin’an as his idol, even though they had never met.

“Perhaps,” Luo Jin’an said.

When he brought his men back to the capital, many commoners would gather to watch. However, he did not even look into the crowd.

Su Binglan looked at Luo Jin’an’s indifferent expression and whispered, “I saw you at the teahouse once.”

Upon hearing that, Luo Jin’an’s eyes glinted. “When was that?”

“When I was ten, you won your first battle and returned to court.” That was when Su Binglan lived as Lan Ruobing, meaning Wei Jin’an was also ten.

At that time, Wei Jin’an followed his father and brother to war. He had already displayed extraordinary combat skills and won a battle when he was just ten. When the news reached the capital, it shocked everyone.

That was why people called him the God of War. He was a natural prodigy who had never lost until the Wei family army collapsed three years ago. It was not that they had failed, but someone had set them up and betrayed them.

Su Binglan did not want to discuss Luo Jin’an’s sad past. However, she had recalled her memories from that time.

Luo Jin’an smiled gently, saying, “I didn’t notice you watching us from the teahouse.’

“That’s right. Many people were looking at you from the teahouse, but you didn’t look at us.’

Luo Jin’an was already cold and noble yet charming when he was ten. Nonetheless, Lan Ruobing did not overthink it then. She was just happy for him.

“When I was ten, huh?” Luo Jin’an muttered, his expression dazed. It felt like a long time ago to him.

“Yeah, you went to war when you were only ten. I feel sorry for you, Jin’an.”

Luo Jinan closed his eyes. “The Wei family is loyal; too many have sacrificed themselves to protect the country. My grandfather and my uncles also died on the battlefield.’

The Wei family had built their reputation with bloodshed and sacrifices.

However, the emperor feared such loyalty. Luo Jin’an felt it was ironic..
