Therefore, Baoyu held the box in his arms and did not show it to anyone.

"With the ginseng that sister gave me, I don't feel any pain in my body." Baoyu smiled brightly,

His facial features were good,

Such a smile..,

Naturally attracted a lot of attention.

Xue Baochai had been in Rongguo Province for a long time. Previously, Baoyu and Daiyu could not talk to each other, so they would pick some time to talk to Baochai.

Now that she heard Baoyu talk to everyone in such a close tone,

Baochai could not help but take a second look.

Daiyu pursed her lips,

She really could not respond.

Although she and Baoyu were cousins,

Their relationship was not close enough. If that was the case, wouldn't it be a little frivolous?

Daiyu's gaze quietly swept around,

But she saw that the people around her did not look surprised.

It was as if they were normal!

Daiyu was shocked,

Without batting an eyelid, he held the parrot's arm.

She was ready to find an excuse to leave first.

The girls in her maternal family were all good, but this Baoyu always made people feel afraid for no reason.

At this moment, Baoyu's gaze fell on Ying Ge again, and he said, "Ying Ge used to follow the Old Ancestor, and now he is following Sister Lin. Did he take good care of Sister?"

Ying Ge's expression was strange for a moment.

Baoyu's question really shouldn't have been asked.

But Ying Ge still smiled,

And replied appropriately.

Baoyu's personality was used to jumping,

At this moment, he heard him say, "Ying Ge is not a good name,

Not good!

Since you're already by my younger sister's side, you should change your name. "

Baoyu looked at Daiyu and said, "Sister Xi Ren used to serve the Old Ancestor. She was called Pearl at that time. Later, the Old Ancestor changed her name and gave her to me …"

Baoyu seemed to like it very much. He was similar to Daiyu in such small details. As he spoke, he smiled even more brilliantly.

Daiyu only blinked slowly and did not reply.

Ying Ge was given to her by the Old Ancestor. She had just arrived at the Jia Mansion, so how could she change Ying Ge's name on her own accord?

Other things aside, it would be bad if people misunderstood that she was dissatisfied with the Old Ancestor.

But Baoyu's interest was piqued and he said, "Ying Ge is too dull and doesn't have much spiritual energy.

Why don't you change your name to 'Zi Juan' from now on? "

Baoyu had always been doted on by the Old Ancestor. Whatever he said, as long as it didn't involve a big matter, he could make the decision.

Ying Ge saw through it clearly, so he smiled and said, "Then I have to thank Second Master for giving me a name."

Ying Ge's words were too formal. When Baoyu heard it, he felt that it was boring and did not have any interest in continuing the conversation.

Daiyu then changed the way he addressed her and said, "Zi Juan, my body is a little cold."

Zi Juan met Daiyu's eyes. At first, she was stunned, but then she understood Daiyu's meaning. She frowned and said, "You were fine before we left. I'm afraid you don't want to be exposed to the wind anymore."

The others, including Baoyu, became anxious and hurriedly said, "Why don't you go back and rest first …"

"That's right, that's right. We can still meet in the future."

Baoyu also walked forward and said, "That's right. Younger Sister, don't catch a cold. It will ruin the previous doctor's treatment …"

Daiyu raised her head to look at her. She had a feeling that Baoyu could tell that she was faking her illness.

However, Baoyu's expression did not change. She could only nod and let Zi Juan support her. Then, she led Xue Yan back to the green-screened cabinet.

Daiyu and the others' figures gradually disappeared into the distance.

Baoyu sighed and groaned behind them. Her spirits were dampened.

Tanchun teased her for a while and felt that it was too boring. She then led her two sisters to Xue Baoyu's place to talk.

When they returned to the green-screened cabinet.

Daiyu couldn't help but ask, "Are those things very rare?"

"Young Miss, you probably haven't seen them in Gusu before. These things are popular in the capital.

It's just that most people have heard of them, but very few have seen them.

They were all brought back from overseas. It's said that even the palace doesn't have them. "After Zi Juan finished speaking, he suddenly remembered to ask," Young Miss, did you send them out today … "

"They were all just sent here," Daiyu frowned slightly, "If I had known earlier, I wouldn't have sent such rare things."

Originally, when she saw so many of them, she thought that they wouldn't be expensive.

When she came to Rongguo Manor alone, she didn't bring many things with her. Even if she wanted to give some things away, she didn't have much to take out. Thus, she casually picked a box from the things that her brother had sent over.

Daiyu didn't feel uneasy at all.

In terms of relationship, she should be closer to that older brother. Now that she looked at it again … she felt that it was a pity to give it to Baoyu.

Zi Juan said, "Did Young Miss's family send it?"

Zi Juan misunderstood Daiyu's meaning and said, "Young Miss, you don't need to worry. No one will gossip because of the weight of the gift."

Only then did Daiyu realize what she meant.

It turned out that if the gift was too heavy, it would make her closer to Baoyu.

Daiyu frowned again.

She only hoped that Baoyu wouldn't misunderstand!

"Older Sister Zi Juan," someone called from outside the room.

Zi Juan acknowledged and excused herself from Daiyu. Then, she went outside the room to talk.

Xue Yan waited by the table and stammered, "Young Miss, aren't you going to reply to a message from that side?"

"That side?" Daiyu paused, "You mean … the person who sent the gift, from that side?"

Xue Yan nodded.

This was what her older brother had told her before. He had told her to remember to remind Young Miss to keep in touch with that side.

Although it was against the rules, Xue Yan felt half relieved when she saw these gifts.

It was so well-ironed that she couldn't find anything wrong with it. Moreover, it was done in the open, right under Second Master's nose … This kind of action wouldn't put Young Miss in danger.

Daiyu pursed her lips. She seemed to be a little tempted.

"Xue Yan, grind the ink for me."

"Yes!"

"Young Miss, the Old Ancestor sent someone to deliver the medicine …" Zi Juan's voice suddenly came closer.

Daiyu was originally deliberating whether or not her words had crossed the line, but now, she couldn't care less. She hurriedly closed the letter and stuffed it into a prepared envelope. Then, she handed it to Xue Yan.

Xue Yan immediately put it into her clothes.

Coincidentally, Zi Juan had already stepped through the door at this moment.

A few young maids followed behind her.

One of the young maids came forward with the medicine. Another young maid bowed and said, "Miss Lin."

"This is from Second Master's courtyard." Zi Juan pointed at the young maid.

The young maid smiled and said, "They're here to ask Miss Lin for a prescription."

"Second Master's orders are that one of Miss Lin's uncles said that the prescription that Miss Lin usually uses has to be changed every month. Otherwise, it will lose its effectiveness.

In the past, it was always changed in Gusu. Now that it's in the capital, we have to ask a new doctor to change the medicine. We have to ask Miss Lin to take out the prescription from before so that the doctor can take a look. "

Daiyu was very intelligent. She immediately understood the intention behind this.

Her prescription was originally given to her by that older brother of hers. Why would she need to ask for the prescription from before?

This was probably just to make it easier for her to send out the letter.

By sandwiching the prescription and the letter together, Second Uncle would be able to see it clearly. There wouldn't be any mistakes that would allow others to pick and choose.

Daiyu brushed the loose strands of hair behind her ears and said softly, "Let me look for it."

"Xue Yan, go get that box and take a look. The prescription is still inside."

Xue Yan also understood. She hurriedly nodded and turned around to get the box.

… …

In the other room.

Jia Zheng once again arranged to meet He Shen at the Daoist temple.

Jia Zheng sighed and said, "That doctor really doesn't have any skills. He actually couldn't treat Brother Zhizhai's illness."

"It's no problem. Just now, Daoist priest said that he would get the medicine for me to try.

Perhaps this time it will be successful. "He Shen's fingertips rubbed the teacup next to him as he smiled faintly.

He really looked like a proper gentleman!

Jia Zheng continued, "I've already sent someone to get my niece's prescription. I'll have someone bring it to you tomorrow?"

"Okay." He Shen looked like he didn't care at all.

Jia Zheng didn't care much about his niece. After all, everything was taken care of by Lady Wang.

Therefore, his mind wasn't on this either. After a few words, the two of them changed the topic again and talked about the Four Books and Five Classics.

He wasn't at all curious about whether He Shen's care for Daiyu was excessive.

The next day.

He Shen sat in the study room and wrote the last sentence with his brush.

The entire booklet was completed.

He put down the brush and couldn't help but look out the window.

A head wearing a hat popped up outside the window.

"Brother, are you looking at me?"

He Shen said unhappily, "What are you doing here?"

He Lin didn't answer. Instead, he craned his neck and asked, "Brother, you keep looking out the window. What are you waiting for?"

He Shen narrowed his eyes slightly, "Who told you what I'm waiting for?"

He Lin smiled, the flesh on his cheeks puffing up, "I can see it.

Brother, you can't feel at ease writing a booklet. Your strokes are faster than usual. You even look out the window from time to time. If you're not waiting for something, then you're looking at me! "

He Shen knocked on his head and was about to scold him when he saw Liu Quan come in.

He Shen suddenly couldn't sit still, but he still firmly controlled himself in his seat.

"You're here?" He Shen asked.

Liu Quan laughed, "Yes!"

"Give him some money and let him go."

"Yes."

Liu Quan walked quickly into the study room and put down something. Then he turned around and went out to give orders.

He Shen's eyes focused on that thing. His heart was strangely uneasy.

It was as if he had been looking forward to more than one day.

It was as if he had been looking forward to it for many years.

He Shen found it funny.

He just wanted to know about Daiyu's recent situation. Why did it seem like a young boy who had received a love letter?

He Shen shook his head and cleared his mind. Then he picked up the letter on the table. He tore off the prescription wrapped on the outside, opened the envelope, and finally took out the letter.

Unfolded it.

Smoothed it out.

Read it carefully.

"Brother Zhizhai!" Jia Zheng called out in a low voice. He was polite and friendly.

He Shen turned his head and looked directly at Jia Zheng.

Jia Zheng's heart skipped a beat. He could no longer ignore the fact that He Shen was not right.

He Shen was not a person who was easy to get close to.

Everyone in the Imperial Court was well aware of this.

Although Assistant Minister He usually smiled at everyone, it was just a facade of gentleness.

Assistant Minister He, at such a young age, was appreciated by the Emperor. He took the position that others took more than ten or twenty years to reach in one year.

Who would dare to make fun of him?

Jia Zheng looked down on him at first. Later on, he admired him more and more. Later on, it was inevitable that he would be in awe of him.

Now that he saw He Shen's cold features and fierce aura, Jia Zheng could not even smile.

"Why don't we talk inside?" Jia Zheng thought about it in his heart and said with a smile.

"Okay." He Shen responded faintly. His posture did not soften at all.

The more Jia Zheng saw him like this, the more uncertain he became.

"Please."

Jia Zheng forcibly suppressed his restless emotions and invited He Shen to enter through the main door, and they went straight into his courtyard.

Jia Zheng's expression did not look relaxed. Therefore, the servants and maids all kept quiet out of fear.

For a moment, the atmosphere in Jia Zheng's courtyard was a little scary.

The maids were used to He Shen's visits and had a deep impression of him.

There was no other reason.

He was young and handsome. Moreover, he was an official in the same court as Second Old Master.

Which girl wouldn't feel her heart move when she saw such a man?

But today, they did not even dare to look at him. They all gave up the idea of getting close to him.

After serving tea and snacks, they all left.

The atmosphere in the hall was a little stagnant.

Jia Zheng had already guessed that someone in Rongguo Province had offended He Shen …

He was about to speak.

But a servant came to the door.

Jia Zheng recognized him at a glance. He was Baoyu's servant.

"Why are you so flustered?" Jia Zheng had always been concerned about his reputation. He hated people who disrupted the rules outside.

Now, in front of He Shen, Jia Zheng naturally felt that he had lost all face.

But the servant was not afraid of Jia Zheng. Instead, he lowered his head and said in a low voice, "Bao Er Ye fell ill again. Old Madam and Madam went to see him.

They said they would like to invite you over. "

As the servant spoke, he secretly glanced at He Shen.

He Shen twitched the corner of his mouth and his face became colder.

He was indeed the same as his master.

Jia Baoyu did not know what the rules were. His subordinates all learned from him.

"Didn't he fall ill a few days ago?

The doctor went to see him.

Didn't he see that I was entertaining a guest? "Jia Zheng said unhappily.

Jia Zheng naturally felt sorry for Baoyu. After all, Rongguo Province did not have many children.

But more importantly, he did not want to make a fool of himself in front of He Shen.

The servant was so anxious that he was sweating profusely. He wanted to say something but did not dare to.

Obviously, he could not invite Jia Zheng. He could not explain to Mother Jia.

He Shen took in the servant's expression and said lightly, "Is Second Old Master's son sick?"

"Yes …"

He Shen's finger circled the outside of the teacup and said coldly, "Does your son often fall ill?"

Jia Zheng did not say anything.

The servant nodded embarrassedly, but then said, "Bao Er Ye has jade to protect his body. It's not bad."

He Shen shook his head. His eyes were even colder, "I'm afraid it's not good."

Jia Zheng's face was a little ugly, "What's not good?"

"I've heard that Baoyu was born with jade in his mouth. He's very beautiful."

Jia Zheng's face was a little red.

After all, He Shen knew that Baoyu was not ambitious …

"That jade is not something that contains spiritual energy. It's more like a demon."

Jia Zheng was shocked, and a vein on his forehead twitched. He didn't understand why He Shen would suddenly say something like that, and why he said something so inauspicious.

Who in Rongguo Province had offended him?

"Don't you think so, Minister Counsellor?"

He Shen turned his head to look at him. "Your son grew up in the inner court and spent all his time with the ladies. Since he did not get what he wanted, he became bedridden and developed a mental illness.

What did he rely on?

Was it only because of that piece of jade?

If it was a fairy weapon, how could he be so naughty and shameless?!

In my opinion, it's just a demon! "

Jia Zheng's chest heaved up and down. His face was livid. However, there was a lump in his throat and he could not say anything.

When had anyone ever talked about Baoyu so mercilessly?

Although Jia Zheng did not like Baoyu's naughty behavior, he was still his child.

Moreover, he was born with jade in his mouth. Like everyone in Rongguo Province, Jia Zheng also hoped that Baoyu could achieve great things in the future.

How … how could he tolerate being criticized like this?

Jia Zheng wanted to rebuke him angrily and turn hostile.

However, because He Shen's words were so hurtful, Jia Zheng did not know where to start retorting.

At this moment, He Shen stood up.

With a "bang", the small teacup in his palm was crushed by him.

Not only Jia Zheng, but all the servants in the room were frightened. The manservant's knees went soft and he knelt down.

"Minister He, Minister He, what is the meaning of this?" Jia Zheng struggled to speak.

Since He Shen had already called him "Minister Counsellor" in a distant manner, Jia Zheng naturally would not be so thick-skinned as to call him "Brother Zhizhai".

However, he still did not understand how he had offended He Shen.

"Minister Counsellor, why did your son fall ill this time?"

"I …" Jia Zheng could not answer.

After all, he had never cared about such a trivial matter.

However, after seeing that Baoyu was fine, he did not worry about it anymore.

Jia Zheng could not help but look at the manservant beside him.

The manservant had never seen such a scene before.

He trembled and said, "That day, Young Master came back from visiting Miss Lin and was beaten by Second Master. Since then, he has fallen ill …"

Jia Zheng was a little embarrassed.

His son was beaten and fell ill. It was his fault as the father.

No one would be embarrassed if it were him.

However, when Jia Zheng turned his head, he saw that He Shen was even angrier than him. His facial features were still fierce, which made people instinctively feel afraid.

"Minister Counsellor, did you hear me carefully?" He Shen said coldly.

"… What?" Jia Zheng was stunned.

"Say it again for your Second Master." He Shen pointed at the manservant.

The manservant often followed Baoyu around. Logically speaking, he was a well-respected person.

However, the manservant did not even dare to fart in front of He Shen.

He could only obediently say in fear, "That day, Young Master came back from visiting Miss Lin and was beaten by Second Master. Since then, he has fallen ill …"

Jia Zheng was still confused.

What did he want him to hear?

Every time he heard this, he felt angry.

After the manservant finished speaking, he carefully panted.

"Say it again." He Shen said.

The manservant looked at He Shen blankly, then looked at Jia Zheng. Finally, he repeated it again in a low voice.

However, this time, the manservant was sweating profusely.

After repeating it so many times, even he could tell that there was something wrong with it.

Jia Zheng's expression suddenly changed. He said sternly, "Do you say this to everyone?"

The manservant nodded. Half of his body was weak.

He was frightened.

"Bastard!

Bastard! "Jia Zheng stood up." What did Baoyu say? "

"Bao Er Ye, he didn't say anything …" the manservant said, trembling.

"Is that so?"

He Shen's voice cut in. His tone was neither salty nor light, but it frightened the servant so much that he lost all his strength.

The manservant burst into tears. "He didn't say anything else. It's just that Bao Er Ye seems to be having a nightmare.

He keeps making a fuss about wanting to see Miss Lin.

Old Madam and Madam both know about this … "

No matter how stupid Jia Zheng was, he could tell that something was wrong.

However, he did not care about these trivial matters in the past. Now that it was exposed in front of He Shen, Jia Zheng suddenly felt his face burning.

Jia Zheng was deeply influenced by Confucianism. He always valued family tradition and children's education.
