Lost Track of Time 覆流年 Episode 4

With memory intact, Lu Anran opened her eyes, and unexpectedly found that she had returned to the past back ten years when she first met Mu Ze on the boat.

The attendant reported to Lu Anran that a ship in front had encountered a river bandit. Lu Anran knew that the ship ahead was Mu Ze's ship, and arranged for the attendant to take the dynamite. The second time she saw that Mu Ze regarded him as an enemy, she wanted to kill Mu Ze with a sword, which also verified that she really returned to the past.

Recalling Mu Ze's affectionate words from before, Lu Anran only had hatred in her eyes. Faced with Mu Ze's accusations, she only explained that she was wrong to hurt people, and then left the boat. Although Mr. Cai has recognized Lu Anran as Lu Qingzhou's daughter, he also thinks that this woman is arrogant and not someone who is easy to win over.

Back at Lu Mansion, Lu Anran had a completely different mentality from her previous life. Looking at Mrs. Lu who was still alive, Lu Anran hugged Mrs. Lu and cried out her thoughts. Later, seeing that her younger step- brother Lu Yun was going to sneak out of the house to learn martial arts, Lu Anran strongly opposed her younger step-brother from learning martial arts, and asked Lu Yun to start learning to settle accounts the next day. This time, she figured out that it wasn't just about defending the country that makes a man do good for the world. He can be a businessman who helped the world and also benefit the common people. Lu Anran privately told the maid Lingxi that she secretly took the leftover medicinal residues from her mother Mrs. Lu to the doctor outside the mansion for inspection, and told her not to let the people in the manor know about it being poisoned.

After explaining that Lingxi took care of Mrs. Lu's food, Lu Anran met her stepmother and step-sister Lu Xinran. This time, Lu Anran did not have a good attitude towards these mother and daughter duo, and vowed in her heart that she would protect her family in this life and would never let the Lu family go get involved in the imperial family strife. Seeing the clothes carefully prepared by her stepmother and recalling her experience of developing rashes in her previous life, Lu Anran asked Lingxi to give the clothes to her step-sister Lu Xinran. The next day, Lu Anran came to the ceremony site. Lu's father, Lu Qingzhou, announced in public that the Pisces Order would be passed on to Lu Anran. Since then, Lu Anran has been the owner of the Lu family's thirty-sixth port and the only heir to the Lu family. This time, Lu Anran promised that her father would swear to the death to protect the Lu family.

When the second uncle Lu Ting stood up in public opposition, Lu Anran simply preemptively announced the illegal overloading of the second uncle's boat. Lu Qingzhou saw the second brother's life in vain and banished him from the clan.

When she returned home that night, Lu Anran saw the scene of her step- sister Lu Xinran colluding with Mr. Cai. Then, seeing Mu Ze she who followed him, he also resolutely rejected the Dahan River system map sent by the other party, directly debunked the true identity of His Royal Highness King Mu Zeqing, and scolded the other party for lack of sincerity in forming an alliance with the Lu family. Simply ridiculous.

Lu Anran was worried that the second uncle would not be reconciled to being kicked out of the Lu family, so she arranged for the servant Shan Yue to keep an eye on Lu Ting to prevent him from framing the Lu family. Liu Mingyu's mother-daughter plan failed, but she was not willing to be subordinated to Lu Anran's mother and daughter. Liu Mingyu told her daughter Lu Xinran to contact Mr. Cai who came from Hanjing from time to time. The future of Xinran is immeasurable.

Although Lingxi didn't find any problems with Madam Lu's medicinal materials and food, Lu Anran was sure that her stepmother would definitely done something evil. Shanyue came to report that Lu Ting and King Yi had met many times and secretly harbored thieves. Lu Anran guessed that the second uncle was going to put the blame on Lu Qingzhou for the crime of harbouring repeated crimes from the imperial court, so that King Yi could also make money from the Lu family. Lu Anran instructed Shanyue to take someone to the pier to check, and she went directly to the prefecture to report to the officials in the name of the Lu family. However, the government was bribed by King Yi and was unwilling to accept the case. Lu Anran simply went directly to King Mu Ze of Qing, and assured him that as long as Lu Anran was in the Lu family for one day, it would not be possible to fall to King Yi, and then Mu Ze’s request was only beneficial to the people. The Lu family will consider this as a condition for Mu Ze to let the Lu family get through the difficulties of this time. Afterwards, King Qing Mu Ze took people from the prefecture to the pier to search for people. Sure enough, the thief was captured, and the Lu family survived the crisis safely.

The people came to ask Lu Anran for help, saying that someone was pulling rice seedlings in the field, hoping that Lu Anran would decide for them. Although she knew that this person was Mu Chuan, Lu Anran still had tears in her eyes when she saw this man in her previous life. Listening to Mu Chuan's familiar tone, Lu Anran thought that the other party remembered her, but she didn't know that she had met Mu Chuan before when she was drunk. After dealing with the sick rice seedlings, Lu Anran invited Mu Chuan to dinner, and when she heard the other party talk about her drunkenness, Lu Anran was deeply sorry. Both of them appreciate what each other has done for many years, and sympathize with each other in their words, chatting and laughing like confidants for many years.
