Miss Jun's return made the Jiuling Hall lively. Liu Er shook Miss Jun's arm, laughing and shouting, Chen Qi also asked questions with a smile, and although Fang Jinxiu remained silent as always, her expression was also a little happier.
"Why didn't you tell me in advance that I would pick you up?" Upon hearing this, the shopkeeper Liu was very happy, but also a little complaining.
"It's not far. I've been bored for a month and I want to go for a walk." Miss Jun said with a smile.
"I mean, if we tell them in advance, we can send the letter home earlier." Shopkeeper Liu said with a smile, "And we can save the young master from asking about it day after day."
Miss Jun smiled and looked a little apologetic.
She met Jiuqin at Prince Huai's mansion. Even though his condition was very serious, she felt relieved because she could see with her own eyes that everything was under control. Those who cared about her must have been very distressed because they could not see or hear anything.
"I wrote them a letter myself, and I'll send it with them," she said, bowing to everyone. "I'm sorry to have worried you."
Shopkeeper Liu smiled but said nothing, while Chen Qi patted his chest.
"Don't worry, we know you can be cured," he said.
"There's nothing to worry about. A doctor's job is to cure illnesses," said Fang Jinxiu.
Having said that, Jun Zhenzhen shouldn't be a doctor, and these people shouldn't be here.
Miss Jun looked at their concerned and happy faces and felt deeply touched.
Originally she wanted to take the Fang family's boat, so she helped them fix the leak. Unexpectedly, the entanglement became deeper and deeper, and it was estimated that she could not get off the boat.
I don't know whether this is a blessing or a curse for them.
Not only did she think about this, she also wrote it down in the letter.
The letter was sent back to Yangcheng by fast horse, which traveled day and night for four days.
"That's really comforting." Fang Yuxiu looked at the letter and said, "Jun Zhenzhen finally realized how unfortunate her existence is for us."
Fang Yuxiu chuckled.
"Don't talk nonsense." She scolded, took the letter and read it carefully, patted her chest and breathed a sigh of relief, "Fortunately, everything went well."
Then he looked at Fang Chengyu again.
"Now I don't have to worry."
Fang Chengyu was pouring his own tea with a smile on his face, and he looked up when he heard this.
"I'm not worried," he said. "I've survived life and death. After escaping death, everything in this world is smooth and lucky."
He was not the only one who escaped death and walked through life and death situations, the entire Fang family was like this.
"I live in fear these days." Fang Yuxiu said, pressing her hand on her chest.
Fang Yunxiu couldn't help but tug at the corner of her clothes.
Everyone in my family knows what I'm thinking. I won't tolerate anyone saying anything bad about Jun Zhenzhen.
And of course they couldn't bear to see their younger brother unhappy in the slightest.
Chengyu said this, and it was clear that he was not allowed to blame Jun Zhenzhen for causing trouble.
Fang Yuxiu ignored Fang Yunxiu and patted her chest.
"But it's better than having no heart beating and no fear," she said.
Fang Yunxiu chuckled and patted her on the shoulder.
"Can't you just talk properly?" she scolded.
The square jade embroidery leans diagonally on the table.
"It's not my fault. Who told her not to talk properly in the first place?" she said. "We are one family and we don't talk behind each other's backs. She said that and that means she doesn't consider us a family member."
Fang Yunxiu smiled and nodded.
"Chengyu, write a letter to tell her what your second sister said," she said.
Fang Chengyu smiled and said yes.
Outside, there were the sounds of little girls laughing and firecrackers. The three siblings looked outside and saw through the glass window that the girls in the yard were playing with firecrackers.
In the past, our family would pretend to be happy during the Chinese New Year, but it was all fake, not as genuine as it is now.
Fang Chengyu took the letter from the case and looked at the handwriting which was so familiar that he could even imitate it.
Meeting her was either a blessing or a curse for them.
He lowered his eyes slightly as he read these words.
No matter who you are or what you are here for, for Fang Chengyu, meeting you is a blessing.
…
There are only two days left until the Chinese New Year. The bustling capital city seems to have quieted down in an instant. Except for the sound of firecrackers, the bustling crowds on the streets have disappeared.
Everyone gathers at home to prepare for the New Year.
Because of the big exam in March, Ning Yunzhao has not returned to Yangcheng this year. Ning Yunzhao has moved to Ning Yan's house, and he will live here until the fifteenth day of the first lunar month.
Although Ning Yan did not have to deal with court affairs, he still had a lot of social engagements during the New Year. Madam Ning II took the women in the family to prepare red envelopes for the New Year, while Ning Yan took Ning Yunzhao and Ning Shiyi to write visiting cards.
The room was as warm as spring. Maids were pouring tea and arranging dried fruits. From time to time, the laughter of women could be heard from the other room.
Although there are disputes in the court now, it is still relatively peaceful. Although the Jin people want to make a move, they have not been able to achieve anything big. There have been reports of snow disasters in various places this year, but fortunately the casualties are not serious, so it can be considered a good year.
Moreover, Prince Huai was seriously ill and was not expected to survive the New Year. If Prince Huai died, the court would inevitably be in chaos again.
Fortunately, everything went smoothly without any surprises.
Ning Yan, who was always self-restrained, couldn't help but smile. He saw Ning Shiyi, who wrote a little carelessly, and then looked at Ning Yunzhao, who wrote neatly.
"Miss Jun's medical skills are indeed good." Ning Yan said.
These sudden words made the two young men look up.
“It seems that it was not false that your grandfather was treated by the old lady of the Jun family.” Ning Yan continued.
This was the first time that Ning Yan mentioned his grandfather and the Jun family together. Ning Shiyi couldn't help but look at Ning Yunzhao.
"That means the original engagement was real," he said.
"Of course the engagement is real." Ning Yunzhao said with a smile, "Of course it is also true that the engagement has been resolved now."
How the engagement was resolved was not a glorious matter for the Ning family. Ning Shiyi certainly would not make things uncomfortable on New Year's Day, so the topic ended before it even began.
"I guess neither side wants to. Otherwise, Grandfather didn't mention it, and the Jun family hasn't mentioned it for so many years." He said, showing the post in his hand to Ning Yan, "Father, do you think this is okay?"
This topic is indeed not a suitable one, Ning Yan even mentioned it with some regret. He glanced at Ning Yunzhao, who had already lowered his head and continued to write the visiting card seriously.
He was right, the engagement was real, but it was also true that he didn't like the engagement and canceled it.
There is no need to say more about things you don't like.
Ning Yan looked at the visiting card that Ning Shiyi brought and gave instructions based on the topic.
The engagement was real, and it was also real that she didn't like it and broke off the engagement.
Ning Yunzhao reached out and picked up a pine nut that the maid had peeled from the plate beside him and threw it into his mouth, while his right hand kept writing.
…
Although the academy had been closed, there were still many classmates who stayed in the capital. After writing the visiting cards, Ning Yunzhao took some snacks prepared by Mrs. Ning and delivered them to his classmates.
"Miss Jun is really amazing. She knows everything is fine." Xiao Ding followed beside her and said, "I heard that the imperial doctors were full of admiration for her, and the emperor was also very happy."
Ning Yunzhao smiled but said nothing.
Xiao Ding looked at his face with some confusion. In the past, the young master liked to listen to Miss Jun's topics, but how come now he not only doesn't ask but also doesn't like to listen?
"Sir, Miss Jun is back. Should we go and see her?" he said again.
Ning Yunzhao spoke this time.
"It's the holiday season, everyone's busy, don't act on impulse and disturb others," he said gently.
Does it bother others if you do something spontaneously? Xiao Ding was stunned. Isn't it enough that people do things spontaneously?
His eyes suddenly lit up.
"Young Master, that..." he said, unable to resist patting Ning Yunzhao's arm rudely and pointing forward.
Ning Yunzhao looked over and was also slightly startled.
Two girls were walking and chatting on the street ahead, one of them was Miss Jun who I hadn't seen for a long time.
It has indeed been a long time since we last met, about forty-seven days.
Miss Jun also saw him and was startled for a moment, but then she recovered and smiled slightly.
This smile made Ning Yunzhao smile as well. Although they hadn't seen each other for forty-seven days, there was no change after seeing each other again.
"What a coincidence," he said, without considering any opening remarks or letting the girl speak first. He just walked over and spoke.
Having said this he smiled again.
"This time it's really a coincidence." He said, looking at Miss Jun's calm expression.
