Scholar Shen left just like that. It was Shen Wangxin's fault for not giving him face, but also his brothers' and sister-in-law's fault for not having any brains. He was an honorable Elementary Scholar, someone who had been treated with respect even in Landlord Zhang's residence. But today, he had lost face in front of his own house.
Thus, he couldn't be bothered to care about his big brother's family matters anymore. As for Shen Wangxin, she was just a girl. No matter how capable she was, she was going to get married in the future. At that time, if he married into someone else's family, would he really be able to give his family any benefits?
It was said that when a married daughter splashes out water, Shen Family would just treat it as if they had never raised her.
He was unhappy and did not look too good the whole way. Shen Yueying did not dare to say another word as she was afraid that if she angered Second Uncle, she would lose her chance of being Miss Zhang's reading partner.
The two of them hired a carriage and drove to the county town. It was barely time for lunch. Once he was in the city, he went straight to his home, arranged everything for Shen Yueying, and went to Landlord Zhang's residence.
Although his status in the Zhang's Mansion was rather high, it was still earned through a few days of meticulous effort. Within the Zhang's Mansion, not only did the young masters have to study, the girls also had to study. That year when he came, all the older brothers in the mansion went to the academy, and this one was just born. Therefore, when Miss Zhang got married, he would teach Zhang young master, and his status would rise greatly.
But Zhang young master didn't need to be taught in the future, since there were so many particular families in the Yu Qing County, how could he worry about not having a place to go?
He was in a hurry, and finally arrived at Zhang's Mansion point during lessons. After she finished teaching Miss Zhang's classes, she strolled around Zhang's Mansion and coincidentally ran into the butler of Zhang's Mansion.
"Don't you know something strange has happened in the city?" Housekeeper Zhang rolled his eyes at Scholar Shen, which made him very uncomfortable. When he felt that Scholar Shen was angry, he retracted his gaze and smiled meaningfully at Scholar Shen, "Mr. Zhang, congratulations, an extraordinary person has appeared in our family!"
Scholar Shen was a bit tired and couldn't hear what Ye Zichen was talking about for a moment, so he just stood there in a daze.
Seeing that he had goosebumps, Housekeeper Zhang couldn't help but remind him: "Yesterday, Lord Liu and Madam brought young master and Xing Ye out of the city, and went to the county's Xitou Village ward to look for a doctor. "Young Doctor Shen's name became famous in the county today. I originally didn't know who she was, but after some careful thought, wasn't Young Doctor Shen Mister's niece?"
Scholar Shen couldn't help but twitch his mouth.
Yes, indeed, his niece. However, they had already separated this morning. Seeing the two of them tearing up and about to recognize each other, what kind of niece was that!?
But it was unknown if Housekeeper Zhang didn't notice his abnormality or if he already noticed it but he didn't want to bother with it. He continued, "Speaking of Young Doctor Shen, there's not a single person in the city that doesn't want to see her face. It is said that even Dr. Lv, who is based on Rongchun Hall, was defeated by her, and was dismissed by Rongchun Hall this morning. "
Scholar Shen was shocked, "Dr. Lv? Is it the head of the Rongchun Hall, Dr. Lv? "
"That's not it." Housekeeper Zhang gave him a glance, which was full of ridicule in Scholar Shen's eyes.
Dr. Lv, who spoke of Rongchun Hall, was a figure that everyone knew about. Everyone in the county who was more sick wanted Dr. Lv to see a doctor, but Dr. Lv was too expensive. If it wasn't someone who could be counted as one, he wouldn't even want to show his face.
Yet such a person had actually lost to Shen Wangxin in terms of medical skills, and even got dismissed by Rongchun Hall?
All of a sudden, Scholar Shen's expression turned ugly.
How could Housekeeper Zhang know the winding road in Scholar Shen's house? He had wanted to say a few words of happiness, but his hot face suddenly turned cold and his face turned embarrassed. Although he didn't say anything and secretly spat, he saw Scholar Shen heading towards Landlord Zhang's study room.
Inside the Xitou Village, Shen Wangxin followed Li Li back to his house.
Li Zheng's house was one of the best in the entire Xitou Village. Other houses were made of yellow clay, but Li Zheng's house was built of green stone. The house was made of clay, warm in winter and cool in summer. Although it was comfortable to live in, it was made of mud and wood, so it was afraid of heavy rain. When it rains, a slight leak in the tiles will affect the wooden floor of the house.
This time, some mud walls and old houses near the village collapsed due to the heavy rain, making it difficult to repair them.
However, not everyone could afford to build the limestone house at such a high price. As a result, even in a village like Xitou Village, there were not many families that could live in a stone house.
As soon as she walked through the door, she realized that Auntie Shen, his wife, had already heard the news. She walked up to him and held his arm for a long time. Finally, with a "puchi", he laughed and patted the back of her hand.
"Like I said, rich couples are blind. This girl's looks are so much better than big girls. Yet now, you have such great medical skills and you don't know how to cherish such a precious treasure. Do you really have to go and pamper that big, shriveled girl who looks good from the outside? "
Auntie Shen's words were straightforward, causing Shen Wangxin to look up at her in surprise.
Li Zheng glared at her and snappily said, "You talk too much?"
He paused, then changed the topic and said, "But then again, that girl did overdo it. The chance to go to Landlord Zhang's home should have been second girl. She relied on her parents' care to go over. If it were not for this matter, the Second Miss would not have suffered so much in the future. "
Hearing his words, Shen Wangxin did not know what he was referring to, so she asked.
Unexpectedly, Auntie Shen opened her eyes in surprise and asked, "Second girl, you don't even remember what happened that day? You and your little girl can go after the spring bamboo shoots! "
Shen Wangxin knew that she couldn't possibly be like the original owner. Now, they only felt that she was completely different from before. However, if they were to ask about her past experiences in detail, they would definitely be exposed. Rather than being caught red-handed by others when she was the original owner, it would be better to find an excuse now as long as it made sense.
Thinking up to here, Shen Wangxin sighed and said with a frown, "Third uncle, third aunt, I have been hiding something from you. "Ever since I got so sick and almost lost my life, I don't know if my brain was burnt or not. I don't even remember what happened in the past. I don't even remember how I fell down like this anymore."
Neither of them could have imagined that not only would Shen Wangxin be seriously ill, but also had lost her memory. It was fortunate that he hadn't been burned to a fool. Otherwise, who knew how much suffering such a good child would suffer in the future!
Hearing her words, Auntie Shen felt her nose sour for a moment. She held Shen Wangxin in her arms and comforted her, "Girl, if you call me Third Aunt, I'll feel guilty even if I had to agree! It's fine if you forget about the past, but we don't need to think about those vexing things anymore. In the future, you will just have to follow Third Uncle and Third Aunt and live a good life! "
