It took a lot of effort and a long time to keep the flowers alive.
As he continued to check the items, Chen Zongwen sighed silently in his heart.
If that hadn't happened, they would now...
Things in the world are already like this, there is no point in thinking about it any further.
In addition to food, the box also contained some very good silk fabrics, which were quite expensive.
From these items, we can see that Wen Zhu's life in Luoyang is pretty good.
The bottom layer is filled with books.
"Oh?" Chen Zongwen raised his eyebrows, "The little girl is quite attentive."
The books sent from Luoyang are all precious materials.
There were also two sets of pens, ink, paper and inkstone, neatly packaged, with the words "Dad" and "Brother Huaichuan" written on them respectively.
Seeing the familiar font, Duan Huaichuan felt warm in his heart.
"There's not much time left until the autumn exam, so it could be used."
"Hmm..." He gently stroked the writing instrument as if he was holding a treasure in his hands.
He was very confident that he could pass this exam, so that he could go to Luoyang and see his sister Wen Zhu again...
Thinking of this, Duan Huaichuan began to review attentively again: "Teacher, I'm going to read."
Chen Zongwen understood him and nodded in agreement.
He took out the book and started flipping through it, then sat down at the table and read slowly.
Xikou Village.
Luoyang is shrouded in drizzle today, and the whole city is like a huge moisture steamer.
In the Hanlin Academy, Shen Rang sat in the corridor, staring at the small water circles formed by the falling raindrops in a trance.
He was responsible for compiling the country's history, and he was required to record any emperor's orders or ministers' discussions.
Although I learned a lot, it was also very hard.
I finally got some time to rest, but I couldn't calm down. Wen Zhu was all in my mind.
The girl had been living peacefully in Xikou Village, but suddenly came to the capital to work as a maid. She was also very generous, giving five hundred taels of silver at once, which was more generous than many daughters of wealthy families.
This is strange no matter how you look at it.
"Prince, what are you thinking about?" Jing Yuan couldn't help feeling anxious when he saw his master's frown.
Shen Rang came back to his senses and said, "Ask Jing Er to go to Xikou Village and check if there is anything wrong with the private school."
"Xikou Village?"
Jing Yuan recalled that when Shen Rang disappeared a few years ago, Shen Jun was extremely anxious and personally led people to search the entire Danyang City but still couldn't find him.
Just then, a letter from Xikou Village brought hope. The letter only had a few words on it: "Your son is here."
Everyone thought they were kidnappers, so Shen Jun led a large group of people to surround the school.
When the door opened, I unexpectedly saw the prince feeding a girl.
After the teacher came out to explain, we realized it was a misunderstanding.
Although Shen Jun smiled and greeted a few times on the surface, he was almost going crazy behind the scenes.
Those fierce-looking men found an excuse to buy food and drinks and sneaked away, thus avoiding being laughed at by everyone.
After some time, Jingyuan couldn't help laughing when he thought about what happened that day.
"Is there any problem over in Xikou Village?"
“I don’t know.”
Shen Rang replied, "We have to investigate to find out the details. Don't let anyone else know about this."
Understanding the importance of the matter, Jing Yuan nodded and left.
In the Marquis' Mansion, Wen Zhu was lying lazily on the bed, full of dissatisfaction with the man named Shen.
This guy usually looks indifferent, but when he gets in bed, he doesn't care about her feelings, and now her whole body is sore!
Jixiang was anxious and didn't know how to help his master solve the problem.
After all, he has no idea about this kind of thing.
Suddenly, there was a light knock on the door, which sounded very cautious.
Hearing the voice, he knew it wasn't Wen Chan or Zhenzhu. Jixiang went forward and opened the door. Seeing the person outside, he was stunned for a moment: "Aunt Liu?"
Granny Liu nodded and said, "I have something I want to talk to you about."
"Come in and talk." Wen Zhu's weak voice came from inside the room.
Liu Po is now much more lively than before and no longer as rigid as before.
Seeing Liu Po's hesitation, Wen Zhu said, "Just say whatever you want to say."
Granny Liu hesitated for a moment before she spoke: "My daughter...wants to come and serve the young lady."
After hearing this, Wen Zhu hadn't reacted yet, but Jixiang next to him clenched his fists.
Doukou's indenture contract is in Wen Zhu's hands. If she comes to serve him, she will definitely become Wen Zhu's confidant in the future.
And he...
"I don't have much decision-making power now. I can only rely on others."
Wen Zhu said: "You know my current situation."
Liu Po sighed deeply.
But when she thought of Doukou's cold attitude towards her, her heart felt like it was being cut by a knife.
This was her daughter's only request, and even though it might not succeed, Liu Po still wanted to give it a try.
Just as Liu Po was about to leave, Wen Zhu's eyes lit up: "If you don't have to serve me all the time, but help me with some things, would you be willing to do it?"
Grandma Liu was surprised: "What do you mean?"
Wen Zhu smiled slightly and said, "It's not convenient for me to go out, but I want to know what's new in Luoyang City. You can ask Doukou to go out for a walk and tell me if there's anything interesting. That way, you'll be doing me a favor."
Liu Po suddenly understood.
"I won't let her work for nothing," Wen Zhu continued. "I'll give her half a tael of silver as pocket money every month, and the cost of getting information is extra. Ask her if she'll come."
Liu Po smiled.
Ever since the child was rescued, she has been keeping her distance from him, even somewhat rejecting him.
