Chapter 140: The Sentimental and Benevolent Young Master of the Shen Family

Of course, this drama was prepared for the eldest son of the Shen family, Shen Zerui.

"My fate is unfortunate. In order to bury my adoptive father, I will sing songs and sell my body for you..."

The tune is an ancient song, and it sounds very sad, which is matched with Bai Zhi's experience. Although Bai Zhi's voice is average, after being specially trained by Nishang, her singing is also melodious and graceful.

In the teahouse, Zhao Zhuoxi had been in a private room on the second floor, and Nanny Qian quietly ran over.

"Your Majesty, Master Shen is at the T-shaped position on the first floor. Just open the door and you will be able to see Miss Bai directly..."

Zhao Zhuoxi nodded slightly, with a hint of sarcasm on the corner of his lips: "Then open the door. I want to see if Mr. Shen is a obsessed person..."

Aunt Qian replied respectfully, "Yes, I will do it right away."

The familiar voice made Shen Zerui, who was drinking tea with his friends, stunned.

Listen carefully to the tune sung by that person, it is so sad, so miserable, and like crying and complaining.

At this moment, for some reason, a corner of the curtain in the room suddenly fell off.

When Shen Zerui saw the familiar eyes, he was stunned and his mind went blank.

While talking to someone, he couldn't help but stand up and slowly walked in front of Bai Zhi.

Today, Bai Zhi was wearing a narrow-sleeved plain cotton gown with a white veil. She looked at Shen Ze Rui with resentment, her eyes gradually turned red, and tears welled up in her eyes.

But he forced himself not to fall, and then turned elsewhere.

"Brother Ze Rui, Brother Ze Rui..."

The friends who came out with him didn't hesitate and followed him to the bottom of the stage.

"It turns out to be a young lady who sold herself to bury her father...hiss, adoptive father..."

"Girl, where are your parents?"

Seeing someone talking to her, Bai Zhi stopped singing. After all, she was selling her body, not her art.

"To answer your question, my parents died in a fire three years ago..."

"Ah, you are a poor girl. If you sell yourself, you will be a slave for the rest of your life."

Bai Zhi glanced at the stunned Shen Ze Rui with a hesitant look: "My foster father treated me like his own daughter. If he doesn't even have a coffin after his death, how can I repay my foster father for saving my life and raising me..."

After hearing this, Shen Zerui's friend was about to take out money, but he saw Shen Zerui approaching and trying to hold the girl's hand.

"You, you, are still alive..."

Bai Zhi was so frightened that she took a step back: "Sir, do you recognize me? I'm telling you the truth. Three years ago, there was a fire in my house that not only burned my face, but also my memory. I don't even remember who I am..."

Shen Zerui was about to take a step forward when he was stopped by his friend.

"Brother Ze Rui, you don't really know her, do you?"

At this moment, Xiao Yimo on the side took out a silver ingot.

"Girl, my wife knows medicine and can cure your illness. Use this silver to bury your adoptive father. From now on, you will be my wife's maid."

Who knew that just when Bai Zhi was about to take the money, she saw Shen Zerui getting angry out of shame.

"Who cares about your money? She also knows medicine, and her medical skills are outstanding. She was not born to be your maid... She is..."

Xiao Yimo gave up and walked forward and grabbed Bai Zhi's wrist.

"Do you know her? If not, get out of my way. My wife has taken a fancy to her. Get out of my way..."

Shen Ze Rui wanted to recognize Bai Zhi directly, but he was worried about his wife Yan Xiao Xiao at home. He was scolded by Xiao Yi Mo and was just about to let go.

With a "click", the jade pendant on Bai Zhi fell to the ground.

Bai Zhi picked it up in panic and rubbed it again and again like a treasure.

Xiao Yimo was surprised: "Girl, you said you have no money. If you pawn this jade pendant, you can get at least fifty taels..."

Bai Zhi widened her innocent eyes, full of panic.

"I can't be one, I can't be one, this is me..."

Suddenly, Bai Zhi covered her head and her face turned pale with pain.

Chu Yu also hurried over and checked Bai Zhi's pulse: "The blood clot in her brain has not been completely cleared, and she has a headache because of her memories of the past..."

"How about this, girl? Come back with us first. After you bury your adoptive father, we can discuss selling your body..."

Baizhi knew that she had met a good person, and the other person was a woman.

Suddenly, someone shouted from below: "Isn't this Yu Jiaoniang from Hua Man Lou? Girl, don't follow her, or she will sell you to a brothel..."

Shen Zerui's mind suddenly became hot, and he grabbed Bai Zhi and protected her behind him.

"I know her. She is my savior. You bad guys, don't take advantage of her. Bai Zhi, come with me. I am your brother Rui..."

Shen Zerui still had some conscience after all, and finally acknowledged Bai Zhi.

When Xiao Yimo saw this situation, he quickly took Chu Yu with him and retired.

Shen Zerui's friend was shocked: "Ah, Brother Zerui, this, this..."

Shen Zerui pointed at the jade in Bai Zhi's hand and looked at Bai Zhi sadly. He felt so heartbroken that he almost suffocated and his eyes were red.

"That year, I fell off a cliff while hunting, and she saved me. Later, when I went to look for her, I found out that her house had caught fire and everyone in the family was burned to death. I thought she was dead too, but unexpectedly, she was still alive..."

The friend suddenly realized: "Since she saved my life, I will repay her with gratitude. So let's take her back home..."

Shen Zerui called on his servants to carry the body of Bai Zhi's adoptive father onto the carriage, and asked someone to buy him a coffin.

When he took Baizhi to bury the body, Baizhi refused to go back home with him.

"Sir, I really don't know you. You said this jade pendant is yours, but I didn't know it. This jade pendant has been with me all along..."

Shen Zerui looked at the burn scar on Bai Zhi's neck, and then at her cautious and tentative look, and felt extremely distressed.

"Miss Baizhi, your nickname is Xiangxiang. Your father is a doctor, and you have been studying medicine since childhood. That's why your brother's name is Baizhu and your name is Baizhi. They are both names of medicines..."

Bai Zhi listened to Shen Zerui telling her family story, feeling mixed emotions.

"It seems to be true, but I really don't remember any intersection with you, young master?"

Shen Zerui said sadly: "You saved me that year, and I said I would marry you. This jade pendant is our token of love..."

As he spoke, Shen Zerui took out a sachet from his arms.

When Bai Zhi saw the sachet, she couldn't hold back her tears.

This is the sachet she embroidered for Shen Zerui herself. On it is a plant of Angelica dahurica, and inside are aromatic herbs and mugwort leaves, which have the effect of repelling mosquitoes and enhancing fragrance.

It's been three years and the fragrance has long gone.

I didn't expect he was still wearing it.

"Brother Rui..."

Bai Zhi finally called out that name...

But, nothing can go back to the way it was.

"Brother Rui, why did you come just now? Where did you go after we parted that day?"

Bai Zhi threw herself into Shen Zerui's arms, crying her heart out.

Shen Zerui was filled with endless self-blame: "After I returned home, I asked my father to marry you, but he disagreed and imprisoned me at home. Later, I got the tragic news that your house caught fire accidentally and you were burned to death..."

Bai Zhi grabbed Shen Zerui's collar tightly, shaking with anger.

"The fire was not an accident. It was set by someone.

If I were in my hometown at that time, I would have been buried in the sea of ​​fire, Brother Rui, you must avenge me..."
