He Shen took out a silk handkerchief and wiped his hands.

As he slowly wiped his hands, he said indifferently, "I wonder how Miss Lin is doing on her side.

After all, she is Brother Cunzhou's niece. We should send someone to check on her.

Miss Lin has been weak since she was a child.

He was afraid that Baoyu's illness had given her even more fright.

If she's sick, I'm afraid it won't be good for her. "

He Shen's words were flawless.

Jia Zheng nodded. "Brother Zhizhai is right."

"Then send someone to do it." He Shen urged without leaving a trace. "Just say that I'm still worried.

"Tell me that you're worried and ask about Miss Lin's recent situation."

He Shen didn't want to sell this good news to Jia Zheng.

Of course, he wanted Daiyu to remember this good news on his head.

Jia Zheng didn't notice He Shen's plan. He immediately nodded and asked the first-class maid in the courtyard to pass on the message.

After pausing for a moment, Jia Zheng remembered again.

Now that Baoyu's head was swollen like a pig's head, how could he be sent back?

Jia Zheng frowned and couldn't help but look worried.

He Shen saw this and said, "Brother Cunzhou has solved the immediate danger. Why are you still so worried?"

Jia Zheng said awkwardly, "Baoyu's appearance …"

"This appearance is good. After he wakes up, he will learn to not do ridiculous things."

He Shen paused for a moment and deliberately said, "Or...

Brother Cunzhou is worried.

How will we explain this to Old Madam? "

Jia Zheng nodded. "Yes!

Old Madam loves and cherishes him the most.

How can she bear to see him get hurt? "

He Shen's face became serious and his tone became much colder. "Brother Cunzhou, what are you talking about?

Where is this place?

Rongguo Province!

Who was the master of the house?

Brother Cunzhou, you!

Brother Cunzhou, do you still remember your original intention of becoming an official?

Brother Cunzhou had to stick to his principles and teach his unruly son a lesson.

Don't tell me you still have to fear the criticism of others? "

"So cowardly. Can Brother Cunzhou still be considered a leader in Rongguo Province?"

He Shen did not give Jia Zheng the slightest chance to interrupt. He waited for him to finish his speech like a cannon, sonorous and forceful.

Jia Zheng had already followed his logic and continued to think.

"Brother Zhizhai is right." Jia Zheng sighed softly. "I was blinded in the past."

The old lady should be respectful, but she should not lose her dignity as the head of the household because of this.

He Shen was right.

When it came to disciplining Baoyu, there was no need for others to intervene and criticize him.

Jia Zheng looked at Baoyu again.

Baoyu's cheeks were swollen. He was confused and dizzy, as if he had been beaten silly.

But looking at him now, he looked much better than when he was carried here.

Jia Zheng suppressed his heartache and said in a low voice, "Send Baoyu back."

The servants were already scared out of their wits. In Rongguo Province, which one of them wasn't a tyrant?

But at this moment, they didn't dare to raise their heads and look at He Shen.

They listened to Jia Zheng's instructions and didn't want to stay any longer. They hurriedly carried Baoyu out.

The two servants who were usually close to Baoyu were still thinking that when Baoyu woke up, they would warn him again and again.

It was okay to provoke anyone, but never Assistant Minister He!

He looked refined and polite, but deep down, he was a ruthless person who made people tremble.

He Shen walked back to the table, poured himself a cup of tea, and pushed it to Jia Zheng's seat.

"Brother Cunzhou, you've worked hard. Sit down and have some tea to calm yourself down."

Jia Zheng nodded, walked back to sit down, and picked up the cup of tea.

He Shen poured himself another cup and said, "I'll wait for Miss Lin's reply before leaving."

Jia Zheng nodded again.

Jia Zheng didn't take the initiative to talk to He Shen again. He seemed to be deep in thought.

He Shen also didn't speak again.

For a moment, the hall fell into silence.

On the other hand.

Back in the Jade Screen Cabinet, Daiyu casually picked up a book and flipped through it in boredom. After a long time, she couldn't read a single word.

Zi Juan and Xue Yan looked at each other. They both knew that Daiyu was worried about something, but they didn't know how to persuade him. They could only sit down beside Daiyu.

Just as the room was quiet, they suddenly heard a voice from outside.

Zi Juan stood up abruptly, "It sounds like Second Master's servant girl.

I'll go take a look. "

After Zi Juan walked out, Xue Yan leaned in to Daiyu's ear and said with a smile, "Maybe that young master sent something again."

Daiyu unconsciously pursed his lips and didn't say anything. However, his heart, which had been disturbed by Baoyu these past few days, warmed up a bit.

Actually, even if he didn't send anything, just a few words would be good.

As Daiyu thought about it, he didn't even realize that the book had slipped out of his hand.

Zi Juan was still talking outside, but it was different this time. The person who came didn't immediately leave. Instead, she walked in behind Zi Juan.

When she saw Daiyu, she bowed and said, "Miss Lin."

Her attitude couldn't be said to be disrespectful.

Daiyu had seen many servants in Rongguo Province who gave her face on the surface, but didn't treat her with sincerity.

Now that she saw this servant girl, who was so respectful that it didn't seem fake, she was a bit surprised.

"But does Second Uncle have any orders?" Daiyu asked.

When the servant girl recalled what had happened in the courtyard just now, she still felt her heart tremble.

She hurriedly adjusted her expression and said with a smile, "He came to the fu with Assistant Minister. He was talking with Second Master just now.

He even called Bao Er Ye over and talked with him for a while. "

Daiyu was stunned for a moment.

As expected, that older brother of hers really did come.

The servant girl continued, "After they finished talking, He Assistant Minister said that he wanted to send someone to ask if Miss Lin was well.

Thus, Second Master sent me here. "

Daiyu's heart warmed again.

She didn't feel happy in the Rongguo Manor. The reason was that she didn't have a good relationship with other people, so no one really took her seriously.

But now, she knew that there was someone who had always kept her in his heart.

"I'm very well." Daiyu moved her lips, but only spat out three dry words in the end.

In the end, she had asked someone to pass on a message. It didn't seem appropriate to say anything else, so she could only gloss over it with three words.

The servant girl hesitated for a moment and thought for a moment before saying, "Miss, please relax. When you went to Bao Er Ye today, Second Master was very angry."

Daiyu was puzzled. What did this have to do with her relaxing her mind?

The servant girl had no choice but to speak in an even softer voice, "Bao Er Ye made … uh, taught him a lesson. It's all because Bao Er Ye did some bad things these past few days and made Miss Lin sad.

Presumably, in the future, Bao Er Ye will be more restrained. "

Even though the servant girl herself didn't believe what she said.

Daiyu was stunned.

She heard the servant girl mumble in the middle of her sentence.

So the person who taught Baoyu a lesson wasn't Second Uncle?

But … but that older brother?

Was it because Baoyu had been sick these past few days and had caused trouble for her?

Daiyu was momentarily speechless.

The servant girl sized up her expression and whispered, "Miss Lin?"

"Yes."

"Then I'll go and report?"

"Okay."

The servant girl breathed a sigh of relief and hurriedly stepped out of the door. She hurriedly rushed back to Jia Zheng's courtyard.

Daiyu sat at the table in a daze for a while.

Not long after, Zi Juan came in and asked, "What are you talking about?"

Daiyu shook her head. She was too embarrassed to tell anyone else what had happened.

That older brother actually beat up Baoyu for her … and Second Uncle wasn't angry at all!

Zi Juan saw that Daiyu was a little distracted and smiled, "Forget it. I won't ask Miss anymore. I think it must be some good news.

As long as Miss Lin is happy. "

When Daiyu heard this, the corners of her mouth unconsciously curved upwards. She was indeed happy.

Zi Juan and Xue Yan saw this and felt relieved.

Xue Yan said, "I'll go and get some food for Miss Lin."

"Okay." Daiyu pursed her lips into a smile.

Xue Yan happily went out of the door, and even her steps were a lot lighter.

Not long after, someone came to tell her that her older brother and mother had come to visit her.

Xue Yan was stunned for a moment, then hurriedly left.

She had never seen her mother before, but she had received many things that her mother had personally made.

At this moment, although there was a sense of unfamiliarity, there was more excitement and happiness.

Xue Yan couldn't help but think that today was really a good day!

"Second Master, I've already asked Miss Lin. Miss Lin said that there's no problem." The servant girl lowered her head and looked at him submissively.

Jia Zheng also breathed a sigh of relief and smiled, "Daiyu is really broad-minded."

He Shen's face was expressionless.

No one was born understanding. Even if someone bullied them, they wouldn't dare to say anything.

It was only because of their environment.

Daiyu knew that there was no one in Rongguo Province who could make decisions for her.

If she told Mother Jia about this matter, it would be too embarrassing.

She tried her best to be careful in the Jia Mansion. She didn't want to leave any evidence for others to use against her.

In the novel, the reason why Daiyu always threw tantrums at Baoyu was because Baoyu was the only one in the Jia Mansion who understood her and cherished her …

Daiyu was just an ordinary girl.

Her parents should have pampered her until she grew up and got married.

Others only hoped that she would be more generous and broad-minded. Even if she was wronged, she should be wronged to be called a good girl.

At this moment, Jia Zheng turned around to look at He Shen.

"Brother Zhizhai?"

Jia Zheng was still a little cautious because he saw that He Shen's face was still not very good. It was somewhat indescribably scary.

"It's okay."

He Shen said lightly, "Brother Cunzhou, in the future, you must remember today. It's not good for me to discipline Baoyu on behalf of Brother Cunzhou.

What kind of appearance would that make? "

"Yes, Brother Zhizhai is right." Jia Zheng deeply agreed.

He Shen only gave him two options. One was that He Shen hit Baoyu, and the other was that Jia Zheng hit Baoyu himself.

Therefore, Jia Zheng completely forgot that he had another option, which was to not hit Baoyu at all.

"His Majesty also ordered me to do some things, so I won't stay any longer. If I have time in the future, I'll chat and drink tea with Brother Cunzhou again."

"Okay."

Jia Zheng happily sent him out. Before he left, he didn't forget to say, "I've really made Brother Zhizhai worry today."

Jia Zheng didn't notice He Shen's intention. He immediately nodded and asked a first-class maid in the courtyard to pass on the message.

After a pause, Jia Zheng suddenly remembered that Baoyu was now swollen like a pig's head. How could he be sent back?

Jia Zheng frowned and couldn't help but look worried.

He Shen saw this and said, "Brother Cunzhou has already solved the immediate danger. Why are you still so worried?"

Jia Zheng said awkwardly, "Baoyu's appearance …"

"This appearance is just right. When he wakes up, he'll remember that he shouldn't do ridiculous things."

He Shen paused and deliberately said, "Or, Brother Cunzhou is worried about how to explain it to Old Madam in the mansion?"

Jia Zheng nodded, "Yes!

Old Madam loves and cherishes him the most. How could she bear to see him get hurt? "

He Shen's expression became serious, and his tone became much colder, "Brother Cunzhou, what are you talking about?

Where is this place?

Rongguo Province!

Who's the master of the house?

Brother Cunzhou, it's you!

Brother Cunzhou, do you still remember your original intention of becoming an official?

Brother Cunzhou, you have to stick to your principles and teach your unruly son a lesson.

Do you have to be afraid of other people's criticism? "

"You're so timid. Can Brother Cunzhou still be considered a master in Rongguo Province?"

He Shen did not give Jia Zheng the slightest chance to interrupt. He waited for him to finish his speech like a cannon, sonorous and forceful.

Jia Zheng had already followed his logic and thought.

"Brother Zhizhai, you're right." Jia Zheng sighed softly, "I was blinded in the past."

Old Madam should respect him, but she shouldn't lose her dignity as the master of the house because of this.

He Shen was right.

Why would other people interfere and criticize Baoyu when disciplining him?

Jia Zheng looked at Baoyu again.

Baoyu's cheeks were swollen. He was confused and dizzy, as if he had been beaten silly.

But looking at his current appearance, he was much better than when he had been brought here.

Jia Zheng suppressed his heartache and said in a low voice, "Send Baoyu back."

The servants were already scared out of their wits. In Rongguo Province, which one of them wasn't a tyrant?

But now, they didn't dare to raise their heads and look at He Shen.

He Shen poured himself another cup and said, "I'll wait for Miss Lin's reply before I leave."

Jia Zheng nodded again.

Jia Zheng didn't take the initiative to talk to He Shen again. He seemed to be deep in thought.

He Shen also didn't speak again.

For a moment, the hall fell into silence.

There were two things to talk about.

In the cabinet, Daiyu randomly picked up a book and flipped through it in boredom. After a while, he couldn't read a single word.

Zi Juan and Xue Yan looked at each other. They both knew that Daiyu was worried about something, but they didn't know how to comfort him. They could only sit down beside Daiyu.

Just as the room was quiet, they suddenly heard a voice from outside.

Zi Juan stood up abruptly, "It sounds like it's Second Master's servant girl.

I'll go take a look. "

After Zi Juan walked out, Xue Yan leaned in to Daiyu's ear and said with a smile, "Maybe that young master sent something again."

Jia Zheng happily sent him out. Before he left, he didn't forget to say, "I've really made Brother Zhizhai worry about me today."

It was unknown who these soft sedans were for.

The bystanders envied them for a while and then left.

Not long after, a boat docked at the shore.

When several old maids came out, the maidservants standing beside the sedan chair of Rongguo Mansion immediately moved to greet them.

Then, two young girls came out of the boat. They were young, and their facial features were not yet fully developed. They had a childish air about them.

One of them was wearing a light yellow dress. Her hair was combed into a cloud bun, and she didn't have any other accessories on her. She was clean and fair, and was especially eye-catching.

Next to her was a servant girl. Although she was also pretty, she couldn't be compared to her. At a glance, one could tell that she was a servant girl.

The two people who came out were Daiyu and Xue Yan.

Daiyu grasped the handkerchief in her hand. She didn't look around carelessly.

She had heard about the prosperity of the capital. If she recklessly looked around, she would embarrass the Gusu Lin Family. She was afraid that she would be ridiculed by others.

Xue Yan was much more nervous. She was close to Daiyu, and the hand that was supporting Daiyu slightly trembled.

When the servant girl who came to welcome them saw this, she immediately looked down on this little girl.

Her face also showed a hint of laziness.

Xue Yan's heart tightened, and she became even more alarmed.

However, Daiyu was much calmer at this time. She glanced at the servant girl. Her clear eyes made the servant girl quiver. She didn't dare to look at her again. She slightly lowered her head and invited Daiyu to get on the sedan.

At this time, Daiyu noticed that there were other sedans on the shore. They also seemed to be from influential families.

In front of that sedan, there was an older man standing. That man was actually looking in their direction.

Daiyu was startled. She frowned and turned her gaze back.

Xue Yan suddenly trembled. She pulled on Daiyu's sleeve and said timidly: "Miss, that, that is the one who came to Gusu City to look for me … my, my father."

"Don't be afraid. You will see him in the future. Perhaps he knew that you were coming today, so he waited here to take a look at you." Daiyu said in a low voice.

The servant girl on the side stretched her neck, wanting to hear what they were talking about.

Suddenly, a cold gaze fell on them. The maidservants relied on their master's eyes to survive, so they were naturally very sensitive. They were startled and turned their heads to look in horror.

— — It was the sedan that was parked on the side.

The curtain of one of the sedan was lifted. A youth was sitting inside and looking at them. His gaze was cold and frightening. It was very frightening.
