Heaven-Sent Farm Girl Builds Her Fortune And Captures His Heart-Chapter 236: Running Into an Acquaintance

"Don’t care."

Shen Qinglan said this and gestured for Le Zhao and Xuan Ying to walk with her.

"Hey~"

The little maid rushed forward, blocking their way, and said indignantly, "Our lady is the Magistrate’s own sister, do you dare offend the Ding Mansion?"

Xuan Ying chuckled lightly, "A friend of our Young Master is the future son-in-law of the Magistrate."

"You—"

"Zhishu, don’t be rude!"

A sweet voice came from the side, and they saw Ding Xuan, whom they hadn’t seen for a while, approaching with a little maid.

"Miss!"

The maid called Zhishu immediately rushed over to her with grievance, "Miss, they bullied the servant just now!"

Shen Qinglan glared at the maid, crossed her arms, and looked away.

"Nonsense!"

Ding Xuan glanced at Zhishu, then smiled softly at Le Zhao and Xuan Ying, "Mr. Le, Mr. Xuan, it’s been a long time!"

"Ah?" Zhishu was surprised, "Miss, you know them?"

Ding Xuan glanced at her without speaking, continuing to smile at Le Zhao and Xuan Ying.

"Oh." Xuan Ying replied indifferently.

Le Zhao merely glanced at her with a half-smile and said nothing.

"Miss Shen is here too."

The words squeezed out as if they were forced through clenched teeth.

Shen Qinglan turned her head, raised her eyebrows slightly, and looked at her, amused.

"Why don’t I see Young Master Duan?" Ding Xuan looked behind the three to confirm there was no one else before asking.

"If Miss Ding has no other needs, we’ll be leaving now."

Le Zhao said with that, taking Xuan Ying and Shen Qinglan to turn and leave.

"Miss, the grapes..."

"Shut up." Ding Xuan’s smile faded as she spoke coldly, "Just now those two gentlemen, one is the second son of the Capital’s richest man, the other is the son of the Young Master’s master at Yongning Manor. Do you know the consequences of being rude to them?"

She snorted, "Let it be, but don’t drag the entire Ding Mansion into trouble."

Ding Xuan watched the three leaving, her gaze deepening.

Since they are here, Duan Yunfei must have come to the Prefecture too. It seems she needs to go home and find Tang Wan.

Zhishu, feeling wronged after being scolded, was upset.

She didn’t know those people’s identities, besides, wasn’t it because Miss wanted to come out and buy grapes?

Yingfu Gate, Duan Mansion.

Everyone looked puzzled at the four baskets of grapes in front of Shen Qinglan.

"Does anyone know how to make fruit wine?" she asked.

"Oh!" Xuan Ying realized, "Miss Shen, you want to make wine with the grapes?"

He said, "Old Yang knows too, you can ask him to help you make it."

"Do we have rock sugar?" Shen Qinglan asked.

"We do." Old Yang came over smiling, "Miss Shen, how much do you want?"

Shen Qinglan replied, "Buy a bit more, it’s for making wine."

"Add sugar to the wine?" Xuan Ying frowned, "Will it taste good?"

"We’ll know whether it’s good or not later." Shen Qinglan looked at Old Yang, "Then I’ll trouble you!"

"Miss Shen is too polite!" Old Yang laughed, "Speaking of which, I haven’t made wine for a long time. If Miss has any ideas on how to make it, feel free to tell me then."

"Alright!"

Shen Qinglan nodded.

She instructed everyone to move the grapes to the well, wash them, and then lay them aside to dry.

Old Yang took out several earthenware jars, washed them, and put them upside down in a clean place to let the remaining water drip dry.

The weather in the Prefecture had been excellent these two days, with a stretch of clear blue skies.

Shen Qinglan brought over the washed grapes, and sat with Duan Yunfei and a few others in the courtyard, eating grapes and admiring the flowers.
