Chapter 18

"There's one more thing I need to trouble Brother Cunzhou with," He Shen suddenly said.

Jia Zheng's mind was in a state of confusion, so he said without thinking, "Go ahead."

He Shen took out a silk handkerchief and slowly wiped his hands while saying lightly, "I don't know how Miss Lin is doing.

After all, she's Brother Cunzhou's niece. It's better to send someone to take a look.

Miss Lin has been weak since she was a child. Baoyu's illness must have frightened her even more.

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 go."

He Shen urged without leaving a trace, "Just say that I'm worried and want to ask about Miss Lin's recent situation so that I can be at ease."

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

Of course, he wanted Daiyu to remember this good news to him.

Jia Zheng didn't notice He Shen's plan. 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's head was swollen like a pig's head. How could he be sent back?

Jia Zheng frowned and couldn't help but show a trace of worry on his face.

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

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

"That's good. After he wakes up, he'll remember that he shouldn't do ridiculous things."

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

Jia Zheng nodded, "Exactly!

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

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

What 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, 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.

When disciplining Baoyu, why would others 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 was much better than when he was carried here.

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

The servants had long been scared out of their wits. In the Rongguo Manor, which one of them wasn't a master who abused his power?

But now, they didn't dare to look up at He Shen.

After listening to Jia Zheng's instructions, they 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 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.

There were two things to talk about.

Daiyu casually picked up a book and flipped through it in boredom. After a long time, 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 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 whispered into Daiyu's ear 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 for the past few days, now felt a bit of warmth.

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

Daiyu was so lost in thought that he didn't even realize that the book had slipped from his hand.

Zi Juan was still talking outside, but this time, the person didn't leave immediately. Instead, she walked in behind Zi Juan.

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

Her attitude couldn't be described as 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, she was a bit surprised to see her so respectful and sincere.

"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, "Assistant Minister He came to the residence and was talking with Second Master just now.

He even called Bao Er Ye over and spoke 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, Assistant Minister He 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's lips moved, but in the end, she only spat out three words.

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

The servant girl hesitated for a moment, then 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 say in an even softer voice, "Bao Er Ye let … oh, he taught you a lesson. It's all because Bao Er Ye has done 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 words.

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 brought trouble to her?

Daiyu didn't know what to say for a moment.

The servant girl looked at her expression and whispered, "Miss Lin?"

"Yes."

"Then I'll go and pass on the message?"

"Okay."

The servant girl heaved 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 didn't have the nerve to tell anyone else what had happened.

That older brother actually hit Baoyu because of her … and Second Uncle wasn't angry at all!

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

As long as Miss is happy. "

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

When Zi Juan and Xue Yan saw this, they both felt relieved.

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

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

Xue Yan happily walked out of the door. Even her steps were much 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 there's no problem." The servant girl lowered her head and looked at him obediently.

Jia Zheng also heaved a sigh of relief and said with a smile, "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 no one in Rongguo Province could make decisions for her.

If she told Mother Jia about this, 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 in the entire mansion, Baoyu was the only one 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.

"Nothing."

He Shen said lightly, "In the future, Brother Cunzhou, you must remember what happened 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. I won't stay any longer. If I have time in the future, I'll chat and drink tea with Brother Cunzhou."

"Okay."

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