Chapter 9

Xue Pan was taller than Baoyu. His facial features were well-defined, and he wore a luxurious gown, which made him look like a noble.

He didn't look dumb at all.

Or perhaps it was because he was very fearful in front of Jia Zheng, so he restrained his usual appearance to appear more respectful.

Jia Zheng's face was dark as he led them to He Shen.

The two of them had always been fond of beautiful women, so when they saw He Shen's appearance, they were both stunned.

They felt that this person had a good temperament. He was handsome and harmless, but people didn't dare to look at him directly.

They also heard Jia Zheng say that this person was the top scholar in the imperial examination.

Recently, it was rumored that he was the one who was entrusted with an important task by the emperor at a young age.

The two of them felt dizzy again.

Baoyu didn't like to study, and Xue Pan was always fighting cocks and riding horses. He didn't look proper at all. The people who often played with him were either the capital's rich playboys or those who worked in the brothels.

They had never seen He Shen in such close proximity!

Therefore, they didn't feel annoyed or disgusted. Instead, they felt a sense of admiration.

The two of them bowed to He Shen as a form of greeting.

Jia Zheng took the opportunity to order someone to find Baoyu's doctor.

Baoyu hurriedly smiled and asked out of turn, "Is this brother sick?"

Jia Zheng frowned, "You don't know the rules.

You should call him 'assistant minister'. "

Baoyu hurriedly changed his words and asked, "What illness does Assistant Minister have?" His tone was instinctively intimate, without the slightest hint of unfamiliarity from their first meeting.

He Shen already knew about Baoyu's temperament, so he said lightly, "He has an illness in his heart, so he can't sleep well."

Such a powerful person also had moments when he couldn't sleep well.

Baoyu and Xue Pan looked at He Shen and felt closer to him.

They felt that they could find something in this extraordinary person that was no different from them.

On the other side, Jia Zheng was also muttering to himself.

To have such achievements at such a young age, if he had a strong heart, wouldn't he be a monster?

This was much more normal.

Not long after, the doctor arrived.

He Shen naturally didn't have any illness. The doctor couldn't see anything wrong with him, but he didn't dare to offend the noble, so he casually prescribed some calming medicine. He Shen agreed with a smile.

Jia Zheng had something to say to He Shen, so he sent the doctor away first. He also sent Baoyu and Baoyu away. Only then did he happily drink tea with He Shen.

He Shen had the experience of his previous life, and the experience of this life was not shallow either. With the combination of his two lives, it was really easy for him to chat happily with Jia Zheng.

However, He Shen did not stay for long. Two hours later, he took his leave.

At this time, Liu Quan had also returned.

The master and servant left Rongguo Province and got on the sedan chair. There were many curious and amazed gazes behind them.

"How is it?"

"I've asked. She's not feeling well." Liu Quan frowned.

"What's not feeling well?" He Shen immediately sat up straight. "Is her body not feeling well?"

"I've asked Xue Yan. She couldn't hide her thoughts on her face.

When she talked about the day she entered the mansion, she was a little unhappy. "

He Shen immediately understood.

In the original book, the Jia family was ridiculous. They let the cousins live in a green screen cabinet, separated by an inner and outer wall.

Although it was not so ridiculous now, it seemed that they didn't care much about arranging a place for Daiyu. They probably just arranged a place randomly and let Daiyu make do with it.

Daiyu had lived such a good life before, so it was natural that she would feel wronged now.

He Shen was also angry in his heart.

If it weren't for the fact that in this era, men and women shouldn't be neglected, and feudal etiquette shouldn't be trampled on, he would've directly taken care of Daiyu on behalf of Lin Ruhai.

"Is there anything else that's not so good?"

"They said that another Miss Bao came to Rongguo Province. She's used to making trouble and usually pleases the elders. She's also very popular in the mortal world."

As he spoke, Liu Quan smiled. "Xue Yan still has the temperament of a child. Even this kind of thing is unfair for her daughter."

It was no different from the original book.

However, at this time, Mother Jia still had some affection for Daiyu. She wouldn't neglect Daiyu in some matters.

However, He Shen still couldn't imagine that Daiyu was alone. Xue Yan couldn't do anything, and the old women around her were useless.

Moreover, there was a Baochai who was the same age as her. She was more popular in the Jia Mansion.

How lonely would Daiyu feel?

When Jia Baoyu and Baochai got closer, Daiyu would probably feel even more sad.

He Shen frowned and whispered, "Did you say those things to Xue Yan?"

"I did."

"Okay."

Seeing that He Shen was silent, Liu Quan didn't say anything else.

The sedan chair moved forward. After an unknown amount of time, He Shen suddenly said, "Did Xue Yan say who is serving Miss Lin now?"

"She did." Liu Quan said one by one.

"Okay."

He Shen responded in a low voice again. He closed his eyes as if he was thinking. His fingers tapped on his knees from time to time.

When the sedan chair stopped, He Shen had already opened his eyes. At this time, his eyes were clear. Obviously, he already had a plan.

"Tomorrow, send some things to the Jia Mansion."

"Yes."

"For now … I won't go back." He Shen paused, then said, "Go buy some things that girls like."

Liu Quan nodded hurriedly. However, he couldn't help but mutter in his heart.

That Miss Lin is at least ten years old, right?

Could it be that Master has taken a fancy to her?

Otherwise, why would he spend so much effort on her?

Even if Imperial Censor Lin had instructed him, Master was still young. He wouldn't put on the airs of an uncle.

The sedan chair turned around at the last moment and headed towards the market.

This stroll went on for four hours and they didn't stop at all.

After He Shen left, people in Rongguo Province inevitably talked about him.

He was at the prime of his life and was an outstanding person.

"I wonder if the marriage has been discussed yet." Mother Jia leaned against the couch and said with a smile.

Lady Xing, Lady Wang, and the others accompanied her.

At this time, Jia Zheng happened to come to see Mother Jia.

"Not yet.

His parents died early, and now he's sitting in a high position. Who would have the face to discuss a marriage for him? "Jia Zheng said.

Mother Jia sighed after hearing this, "It's a pity that his parents died early."

"What's so pitiful about it?"

Jia Zheng shook his head, "He was born in the Niohulu family. Niohulu is a popular surname. Just based on this, his family background is better than others." Jia Zheng was admiring He Shen at this time, so he naturally said good things about him.

Mother Jia nodded, "He's such a good person. It's a pity that there aren't many girls of the right age in our family."

Lady Xing was born stupid. She usually didn't know how to flatter people, but now she understood.

Today, the young master who was invited by Second Master was an extraordinary person. Even the Old Mistress had the thought of marrying him off.

Lady Xing rushed to say, "How is it that there aren't any girls of the right age?

Isn't Yin Chun just right? "

Mother Jia closed her eyes slightly. She couldn't be bothered to talk to her.

Lady Wang looked at her with a hint of sarcasm.

Lady Xing was a little embarrassed, but also a little unwilling.

Yin Chun wasn't her daughter, but she was a daughter of the first branch. She didn't have any children. If she took Yin Chun as her own daughter, it wouldn't be a problem.

Lady Wang had a daughter in the palace. She should also have a daughter of her own. If she married into a good family, she would be able to stand in front of Lady Wang.

Lady Xing opened her mouth and wanted to say something, but Mother Jia said coldly, "What nonsense are you talking about?

He's the legitimate son of an official's family, and he's very capable.

How can Yin Chun be a match for him? "

Marrying a concubine's child to someone else wasn't a marriage, but a feud.

Lady Xing was mercilessly reprimanded by Mother Jia. She lowered her head and looked extremely wooden.

Wang Xifeng hurriedly tried to smooth things over. He said a few words to make Mother Jia happy. He even smiled and said, "Don't we have two good girls coming to our family?"

Mother Jia also thought of Daiyu and Baochai.

But she only smiled and didn't say anything else.

Let's not talk about them.

Ever since Jia Baoyu saw He Shen that day, he couldn't help but mention He Shen when he talked to his sisters in the residence.

Other than their close brothers, how could the girls in the boudoir have ever seen another man?

Now that he was mentioned, they could only blush. No one dared to continue the conversation.

But even so, He Shen's name was spread widely in Rongguo Province thanks to Jia Baoyu's mouth.

Unexpectedly, on the second day, some gifts were sent to Rongguo Province.

Some of them were for Jia Zheng.

Some of them were for Daiyu by borrowing the name of his elders. He Shen gave them to Daiyu.

The people in Rongguo Province were shocked. They knew that Lin Ruhai was on good terms with him.

The other girls in the boudoir had already heard of his name from Jia Baoyu. At this moment, they were very curious, but they couldn't ask. They could only look at Daiyu's residence all day long. They wondered what this outstanding scholar looked like.

… …

In the green screen cabinet.

Lifting the curtain, Ying Ge stepped in with a few young maidservants. The maidservants were holding huge boxes in their hands.

"Miss, these were sent by the front."
