"Mrs. Lin!"
Shen Ajiao was taken aback. That bastard called me. His voice didn't sound like a good person at all.
"So it's Your Highness."
"Greetings, Your Highness!" Shen Ajiao gestured for Lin Daiyu to enter the mansion first.
[Lin Baobao, hurry and find Lin Ruhai! Go now, or this bastard will kill me!]
Lin Daiyu hurriedly entered the mansion to find Lin Ruhai.
Shui Rong leaned against the stone lion of the Lin family. It was said that this stone lion had absorbed the soul of Jia Jiabao, the second master. If he could absorb his soul, it would be considered a stroke of good fortune.
"you……"
Shui Rong looked at the person in front of him who was wary of him and gave a wry smile. "I'm going to the Northern Border in two days."
Shen Ajiao blinked her big eyes and asked, "So?"
A bitter smile appeared on Shui Rong's lips. "It's nothing, I just came to say goodbye to Lord Lin and his wife."
Shen Ajiao nodded, "I understand, you can leave now."
Looking at Shui Rong's feet, which seemed to be made of cement, he was somewhat embarrassed. He meant, "I'm only notifying you once in the whole country, don't be ungrateful."
So, he should at least show some respect, or else he'll mess with me?
"Then I wish Your Highness a victory in the battle! May you lead our soldiers back to the capital safely soon, and may your families be reunited in happiness and prosperity."
"Is this your idea?"
No, this is what the people think!
Shen Ajiao: "The will of the people."
"As you wish!"
Hehehe, make yourself clear, or I'll think you're a selfish person! It's just as the people want!
"Your Highness, I am so sorry for not welcoming you properly!"
Having received a tip from Lin Daiyu, Lin Ruhai dropped what he was doing and rushed over. He was so angry that he almost resorted to violence. This Shui Rong actually tried to lay a hand on his wife!
This is an insult to civility!
(You scoundrel!)
Shui Rong glanced at Lin Ruhai, and their eyes met. Their gazes clashed, sharp and menacing. Shen Ajiao silently took a few steps back, planning to get away from this battlefield without gunpowder.
"Have all the funeral arrangements been made for the Prince?"
Shui Rong sneered, "No need for Lord Lin to worry about this; the imperial court will take care of it."
"Heh, how can one's own funeral arrangements be as meticulous as one's own preparations? Isn't Your Highness afraid of feeling uncomfortable?"
Water Dissolved Gas gritted his teeth, waiting for his triumphant return so he could kill him first!
Lin Ruhai: Once he sets off, we'll take the opportunity to kill him at the border!
The two chuckled a few times, acting as if it were business, neither willing to give in.
Taking advantage of the situation, Shen Ajiao made a quick escape.
Lin Daiyu breathed a sigh of relief upon seeing that Shen Ajiao was unharmed. "Did Madam make things difficult for you?"
"Ha, him?"
Could you possibly eat her? She's a persistent, vengeful spirit, and she looks so sinister.
"Ha, with his abilities? Madam was so scared that she ran away on her own."
Shen Ajiao felt a chill behind her, and when she turned around, she saw that Lin Ruhai's resentment was greater than that of a ghost.
"In the future... no, we won't see each other again."
Shen Ajiao nodded. "Can't see her anymore? Huh? What kind of state secret is this? I hope she won't be silenced."
Lin Ruhai gave Shen Ajiao a sharp rap on the head, "What nonsense are you thinking about?"
"Go do your test paper, you've been out all day."
When Shen Ajiao heard that she still had to do a test paper, it was already dark!
Who would have thought? It's been ten years since she graduated high school!
Now, I'm doing test papers with a group of teenagers!
This is outrageous!
"Hurry up and come in!"
"They're here! They're here!"
Lin Daiyu: I can't bear to look! Madam, where is your backbone? Where is your ambition?
"Yu'er!"
"Dad's here!"
...
Since sending the Lin family back last time, Tan Chun has been ill and coughing incessantly. Sure enough, within a few days, she infected Xi Chun, who lived in the same courtyard, and the two of them started coughing together.
"Since you two are sick, you don't need to come to pay your respects to me." Grandmother Jia, covering her mouth and nose, her eyes darting around, waved her hand at Erchun.
"The ancestral rites must not be neglected. As long as the granddaughters can get out of bed, they will come to pay their respects to the ancestral master without fail. Cough cough..."
Tan Chun coughed a few more times as she spoke, and Grandmother Jia became increasingly alarmed, wondering if it was tuberculosis.
"Your good behavior is to focus on getting better and recovering."
The seeds of doubt took root in his heart, especially after Tan Chun coughed everywhere in her courtyard, coughing at everyone she saw. Bao Yu had also coughed a few times these past few days; he hoped he wouldn't catch it.
She's frail; if she gets infected, how could her body possibly protect her?
"Don't worry about these things. Go back first and come back when you're fully recovered. Our ancestors are hoping you'll get better."
After saying this, he sent Tan Chun and Xi Chun away, then burned mugwort and other things in the room, drank a bowl of medicine, and forced all the maids in the room to drink a bowl before he felt at ease.
After leaving Grandmother Jia's courtyard, Tan Chun and Xi Chun went to Lady Wang's courtyard. "Ahem, greetings to Mother and Aunt."
"Good boy, why are you up?"
"Cough cough, Mother loves me, cough... cough cough... but I can't be disobedient. I haven't come for several days and I miss Mother."
"Cough cough cough... cough cough, I feel a bit better today, so I thought I'd come and take care of Mother."
Lady Wang was displeased to see Tan Chun coughing so hard she couldn't straighten up. The next second, Tan Chun, who had just taken a sip of water, coughed up and vomited right in front of Lady Wang.
He kept coughing, and he was about to faint.
“You’re a young lady, you should stay in your room and rest when you’re sick. What kind of behavior is this, running around everywhere?”
Tan Chun's eyes were red. "Yes, Mother's teachings are correct, cough cough cough..."
"Cough cough cough, Mother, I...I cough cough cough cough."
Madam Wang took a step back in fright. "Did you call a doctor? What medicine did you take?"
Tan Chun hesitated to speak, "It's just a cold, and so is Xi Chun."
