Chapter 197: Calculating People's Hearts
Madam Shen's eyes suddenly widened, and she hurried over to grab her cloak and wrap Shen Luoxue up.
"Mother Qiu..."
Mother Qiu and Lihua hurried forward to help, and lifted Shen Luoxue up. The Shen family's carriage also drove over. Several people put Shen Luoxue on the carriage and hurried away.
The private room of Yue Manting.
Su Hanchu personally picked up some food for Shen Luoyun.
"Luo Yun, this is my latest spicy chicken. I use the freshest chicken and squeeze it until golden brown. Heat oil in a wok again, add minced garlic, minced ginger, and Sichuan peppercorns, and stir-fry until fragrant. Then add the green peppers and the chicken. How does it taste?"
Shen Luoyun picked up the food in the bowl with his chopsticks.
"No need to pay. I know it's a delicious dish just by smelling it."
Then he put the chicken into his mouth and started chewing it.
"Mm, it tastes great, slightly spicy but numbing enough. Madam Jun, I'm afraid this dish will be a big hit again today."
Su Hanchu spoke with a smile.
"Then I'll borrow Luo Yunji's words."
When Shen Luoyun had almost finished eating, Su Hanchu first signaled Ping'er to bring the flower tea, and then looked at Shen Luoyun and spoke.
"Luo Yun, we've been having a great time talking today. I've been staying with you the whole time, right?"
Shen Luoyun didn't know why Su Hanchu said that, but he understood what Su Hanchu meant.
"Of course I do. I like Madam Jun very much. Today is the opening of Madam Jun's restaurant, so I came to congratulate her. I have been asking Madam Jun for advice on how to run a business."
Su Hanchu smiled with satisfaction after hearing this. With the testimony of the Shen family, he had never left. Even if Madam Shen and Shen Luoxue had doubts, what did it matter?
"Since we are so destined to meet, and today is the Lower Yuan Festival, the food we just had was so delicious, and I'm a little full, why don't we go for a walk together? I heard that making a wish to the water god today will be very effective."
Shen Luoyun was naturally happy about it.
"Luo Yun is honored."
The two of them quickly stood up, and Su Hanchu even took Shen Luoyun's arm and walked out of the private room.
Qingmei, who was waiting outside the private room, silently saluted the two of them.
"Second Miss, Madam Jun."
Ping'er eagerly took her hand.
"My wife and your daughter have made an appointment to go to the river to release lanterns and make a wish together. Why don't we come too? We'll have company."
As Su Hanchu and Shen Luoyun arrived at the river, Ping'er had already bought river lanterns for them.
The two made a wish on the lantern, put their hands together and began to make wishes to the river lanterns.
Su Hanchu was very pious at this moment.
"I pray that the Water God bless my husband Jun Moye with a life of happiness and health, and that we will be together forever..."
Shen Luoyun prayed.
"I pray to the water god to bless my biological mother with good health and no more worries."
After making a wish, the two watched the river lanterns slowly drift away with the current.
Su Hanchu dragged Shen Luoyun to go shopping again.
Entering the crowd, some discussions soon reached Shen Luoyun's ears.
"Alas, who did Miss Shen offend? How dare someone in the northwest leave her in such a shameful manner at the gate of Yihong Courtyard."
"I don't know. These noble ladies are always so arrogant and self-righteous. It's no surprise that they offended others."
"It's a rare opportunity to see such a good show today. Wow, the figure of the eldest daughter of the Shen family is simply amazing. Although we can't do anything, we can still feast our eyes on her."
"Yes, that skin is so white..."
Shen Luoyun's heart sank when he heard this. He thought about how he and Ping'er had been waiting in the private room for so long before Su Hanchu appeared through the window. When he thought about what his stupid elder sister had done last month, there was nothing he couldn't figure out.
Looking at Su Hanchu's smiling face as she searched for interesting gadgets, especially the bright smile on her face, Shen Luoyun felt a chill.
No matter who you offend in the future, you must not offend this Madam Jun. She is a dagger hiding behind a smile, which is really scary.
Su Hanchu had already pulled her into a jewelry store and picked up a nice hairpin.
"Luoyun, this hairpin is very beautiful. It seems to match your clothes very well. Try it on and see for yourself."
As he spoke, he inserted the hairpin into Shen Luoyun's hair.
Shen Luoyun hurriedly and nervously opened his mouth to refuse.
"Madam, this is unacceptable. I don't accept rewards without merit. Besides, you have already helped me a lot. How can I still ask for your hairpin?"
Su Hanchu reached out and held her hand as she was about to take off the hairpin.
"We hit it off right away. What's a hairpin to you? Wear it well and give my regards to the governor when you get back."
Then he looked at the shopkeeper beside him.
"Shopkeeper, how much is this hairpin?"
The shopkeeper smiled and started talking.
"Sir, you have good taste. This hairpin is a new model. The body is made of pure gold, and the pendant is made of the finest jade. However, our shop always emphasizes the perfect match. I will give you two a hundred taels of silver for this hairpin."
One hundred taels of silver was almost a year's monthly salary, Shen Luoyun spoke hurriedly.
"Madam Jun, I can't accept this. It's too expensive."
Su Hanchu signaled Ping'er to give the silver, and pulled Shen Luoyun out.
"It's just a hairpin. No matter how valuable it is, it's just a material possession. How can it compare to the friendship between you and me? Let's go shopping. If you really feel bad about it, then go back and tell your family about my newly opened Yue Man Ting. It would be best if you could bring your family to show your support."
The Shen family at this time.
Shen Luoxue's room.
Mrs. Shen cried anxiously.
"What a bunch of idiots! Why hasn't the doctor come yet?"
Mother Qiu comforted her patiently.
"Madam, the court doctor is on leave for the Lower Yuan Festival. It will naturally take a while for us to get a doctor from outside. He should be here soon."
Soon Lihua came quickly with the doctor.
"Doctor, come quickly and take a look at my young lady."
The doctor came forward carrying a medicine box.
Mrs. Shen gave up her seat in time, and looked anxiously at Shen Luoxue who was lying unconscious on the bed.
The doctor looked at Shen Luoxue's appearance, and although he was surprised, he did not dare to say anything more considering her status.
He just reached out and took her pulse silently.
Madam Shen spoke anxiously.
"Doctor, how is my daughter?"
The doctor stood up and bowed.
"Madam, your daughter has inhaled the Ecstasy Incense, which is why she is unconscious. I will prescribe a medicine. After boiling it and taking it, your daughter will wake up soon."
After hearing this, Mrs. Shen breathed a sigh of relief. It's good that everything is fine. It's good that everything is fine. But looking at the marks on Shen Ruoxue's body, she became worried again.
"Doctor, there's nothing else wrong with my daughter, right?"
