"Brother Zhizhai"

Jia Zheng's figure appeared at the door, followed by many servants,

It looked like a big lineup.

Jia Zheng was so easy to coax, which was a pleasant surprise.

He Shen took in Jia Zheng's expression,

He walked forward,

Only then did a hint of a smile appear on his indifferent face.

"Brother Cunzhou," He Shen called out.

Jia Zheng didn't seem offended at all,

Instead, he smiled warmly at He Shen,

And said in surprise, "Brother Zhizhai is also on leave today. I was afraid that I wouldn't be able to invite Brother Zhizhai."

"I've been feeling a little sick recently,

The Emperor empathized with me and allowed me to rest at home.

Yesterday, I went to the Taoist temple to ask the Taoist priest for medicine. "

Jia Zheng suddenly understood, but he said, "I went to the Taoist temple,

It was only because that place was peaceful and quiet.

But if I really asked for medicine, I'm afraid the Taoist priest doesn't have any ability. "

Speaking of this,

Jia Zheng wanted to say something, but he hesitated.

"Brother Cunzhou, if you have something to say, just say it. Why are you hesitating?" He Shen's tone was neither cold nor warm, but it always gave people an illusion of closeness. They couldn't help but want to get closer to He Shen.

"There is a doctor who often comes to the mansion,

He's not a miraculous doctor, but he has some ability.

If Brother Zhizhai doesn't mind,

I'll ask someone to invite him here. "

He Shen didn't lack a doctor,

Not to mention that he was a doctor himself.

Even if he was really sick,

With his current status and power,

Wouldn't it be easy to find a good doctor,

If Jia Zheng said these words to others, he would probably be ridiculed.

But He Shen could tell at a glance that Jia Zheng really wanted to be on good terms with him and regarded him as a confidant.

However, He Shen didn't take it to heart.

After all, there were too many people who wanted to treat him as a confidant with just a few words.

"Why would I mind?" He Shen smiled. "Thank you."

"What a coincidence. That doctor is in the manor today."

"Oh."

Without waiting for He Shen to utter another syllable, Jia Zheng angrily said, "It's all because of my unfilial son. He's not the least bit motivated and only knows how to be stubborn all day long."

Baoyu was beaten.

He Shen wanted to laugh.

Jia Zheng scolded, "You're really unbearable."

He Shen certainly wouldn't agree with Jia Zheng.

The reason why Jia Zheng always lectured Jia Baoyu was because he had high hopes for Jia Baoyu.

Naturally, he could only tolerate being beaten and scolded by himself, but not by others.

He Shen said lightly, "I've long heard that there's a young master who was born with a jade in his mouth in Rongguo Province. He must have great luck. Brother Cunzhou, why are you so anxious?"

Jia Zheng scolded and scolded, but after hearing He Shen's comforting words, his expression became much better.

"If he could be half as good as Brother Zhizhai, then I wouldn't be like this." Jia Zheng sighed.

He Shen didn't continue the conversation.

If Jia Zheng saw He Lin and saw that He Lin was already full of poetry at such a young age, wouldn't he be even angrier?

Would Baoyu be beaten to the point that he couldn't get out of bed for ten days?

Seeing that He Shen didn't continue the conversation, Jia Zheng felt that something was wrong and hurriedly led He Shen inside. "Brother Zhizhai, please."

After passing through the main gate, they could see even more wealth and grandeur inside.

Many female servants were bowing with their heads down, looking extremely well-behaved.

However, He Shen's expression didn't change.

He wasn't surprised at all that he could enter and leave the Imperial Palace, which was so magnificent.

What's more, it was only Rongguo Province.

After passing through the Yi Gate, He Shen opened his mouth again and asked casually, "I've heard that Rongguo Province and Gusu Province are in-laws."

Jia Zheng was stunned. He didn't understand why he suddenly brought this up, but he still nodded and said, "Yes."

Jia Zheng paused and said, "Brother Zhizhai should know my brother-in-law. He's the Yangzhou Salt Patrol Imperial Censor.

My youngest sister in the family married him. "

Speaking of this, Jia Zheng sighed. "My younger sister passed away a few years ago, leaving behind a daughter who had no one to take care of her. She didn't even have an elder who wanted to marry her.

Old Madam missed her very much. As a matter of fact, a few months ago, she brought my niece over from Gusu. "

He Shen said, "Not only do I know her, but I also recognize her.

Imperial Censor Lin had written a letter to me a long time ago, mentioning that his daughter was coming to my maternal grandfather's home. "

The smile on Jia Zheng's face deepened. "It's really fate. Brother Zhizhai and my brother-in-law are friends."

It wasn't that Jia Zheng was close to his brother-in-law, Lin Ruhai.

However, there was such a strange thing when people interacted with each other.

As long as there were people who knew each other, their friendship would be much closer.

At this moment, Jia Zheng felt that the more he looked at He Shen, the more he felt close to him.

Although he was a bit young, it was really rare to meet a bosom friend.

Jia Zheng felt that he and Assistant Minister He had the feeling of meeting a soulmate in the mountains and flowing water of the previous dynasty.

Jia Zheng smiled and said, "Shouldn't my niece also call Brother Zhizhai uncle?"

He Shen's face almost twisted.

Uncle?

What kind of seniority was this?

However, when he thought about it, there didn't seem to be anything wrong.

After all, he had been friends with Jia Yucun and Lin Ruhai as equals in the past. The former was a smart person, while the latter was a wise gentleman. Neither of them looked down on him because of his young age.

Especially Lin Ruhai, who had exchanged many letters with him. They didn't seem like elders and juniors, but more like good friends.

He Shen wasn't satisfied with this title, but when he thought about it, if he wanted to meet Daiyu as his uncle, it would be much easier than meeting Daiyu as an equal.

The former was an elder meeting a junior, so there was nothing wrong with that.

However, the latter was a man meeting a woman in the backyard. There was a difference between men and women, so it was very inappropriate.

When he thought of this, He Shen was no longer dissatisfied with this title.

He smiled and said, "That's right.

I should take care of her. "

Jia Zheng waved his hand and said, "She's my niece. She's in Rongguo Province. Of course, I won't let her suffer."

Is that so?

He Shen didn't take Jia Zheng's words to heart at all.

Although Jia Zheng controlled the power of Rongguo Province, he didn't have time to care about the affairs of the backyard.

Although he was close to his niece, he wouldn't let Jia Zheng take care of her too much.

He Shen smiled again and said, "Of course.

But I should also take care of her, so that I won't let you down. "

Jia Zheng didn't see He Shen's distrust at all. Instead, he smiled and said, "Brother Zhizhai, why don't you send someone to take a look?"

He Shen nodded and called Liu Quan over, "You go and take a look at your sister."

Jia Zheng was slightly surprised, "This is …"

"It's a coincidence.

The maidservant serving Miss Lin is actually the long-lost younger sister of this long-lost follower of mine.

I found her a few years ago, but we were separated in two different places, so we never met. "

Jia Zheng laughed and said, "It's really a coincidence. Let's go and take a look.

This way, Brother Zhizhai can know how my niece is doing. "

After saying that, Jia Zheng gave a few instructions to the servant beside him, ordering the servant to bring Liu Quan over.

Liu Quan couldn't enter the backyard, but he could summon his Xue Yan to see her.

For He Shen, this was enough to achieve his goal.

Ying Ge shook his head and said, "Second Master took it from the yard."

"Uncle …" Daiyu was stunned again.

She wasn't close to her two uncles. She only met them a few times and didn't talk much with them.

When First Uncle saw her, he was impatient. When Second Uncle saw her, he was serious and rigid. Gradually, Daiyu felt a little scared of them.

Why did Second Uncle send something over all of a sudden?

Could it be that Aunt made the decision?

Ying Ge was also stunned, "It shouldn't be. Second Master didn't say it clearly."

Xue Yan opened her mouth and was about to say something, but then she remembered what she had told her the other day. She cautiously glanced at the people around her and finally closed her mouth.

After all, she wasn't in a hurry to say it now.

"Then put it down first," Daiyu said.

She wasn't interested in these things. After all, Gusu Lin's family wasn't a small family, and she had seen the world.

It was just that she wanted to take a closer look at it later because she was grateful for their friendship.

Ying Ge nodded and asked the maids to put the boxes down. Then he led the servants out.

After they left, Xue Yan walked to Daiyu's side.

"Miss, don't you want to take a look?"

Xue Yan had been a lot more taciturn recently, and Dai Yu had rarely seen her take the initiative to speak. At this time, Xue Yan couldn't help but be slightly surprised. Nodding her head, she reached out to take the thing in the box.

She said, "I don't know who it is."

Only then did Xue Yan get a chance to speak. She said in a low voice, "It should be my elder brother's master."

"Which uncle?" Daiyu asked.

As they spoke, Daiyu had already taken out a brocade box.

This brocade box was more exquisite than the one outside. It was fastened with jade and looked expensive.

Daiyu unfastened the fastener and opened the lid. What she saw were pieces of silver and gold.

There was also a letter under the lid.

"This is …" Daiyu's slender fingers touched the silver and was stunned, "What is it for?"

Xue Yan thought for a while, "It's for rewarding people. I heard from the people in the residence that the masters are very generous to the servants. They often reward them with pieces of silver and gold. If someone is rewarded, it's very honorable.

It's said that there are people outside who treat the gold in the residence as treasures. "

Daiyu was slightly surprised, "So that's what it's for."

Her mother had never told her about this when she was alive, so she was very unfamiliar with it.

Xue Yan smiled and said, "That's exactly what elder brother said. His master is a good person."

Daiyu nodded and agreed.

Especially after experiencing Rongguo Manor's seemingly doting, but in fact, lacking a lot of considerate and considerate actions, she felt a lot more comfortable in her heart.

She just didn't know which uncle the other party was.

With this thought in mind, Dai Yu picked up the letter and opened it. Unfolding the letter in a few breaths, the lines of handwritten words came into view.

It was really, really familiar.
