Chapter 058: Entrustment
"Is it true that my uncle was injured by thieves?" Although Shen Yan was aware of her father's dislike of seeing Bai Zhong, she was surprised that Bai's father was really injured by a thief. The pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info she thought that yesterday when the prince made trouble, Bai Mu Tang acted in a play, and the letters she took out were also fake, but she didn't want the play to be fake, but the fact that Bai Father was victimized by thieves was true.
"My father's treatment is timely, and there is no major problem." Bai Zhong explained, "When my mother received the letter, she sent someone to look for me, but she heard the news that I was taken to the Zhizhou Mansion by the prince, so she acted in a hurry to play yesterday's play. β
"If it weren't for your mother, your family would have lost more this time." Shen Yan sighed, thinking of the tens of thousands of taels of silver that she gave to the prince for nothing, and she felt unwilling in her heart.
"Alright." At this time, Shen Shichong interjected and said to Bai Zhong: "Since you are here, follow me to the study." With that, he put his hands behind his back and walked to the study.
"Daddy, wait." Shen Yan hurriedly stopped him, grabbed his arm, and asked coquettishly: "Dad, do you want to teach Brother Bai Zhong a lesson because of yesterday's incident?" Without waiting for Shen Shichong to answer, she continued: "You were in front of Bai Mu yesterday, didn't you say that even if you let Brother Bai Zhong choose again, he would do that?" Why are you still angry with Brother Bai Zhong now? β
Shen Shichong wanted to explain, but listening to Shen Yan's words, he suddenly felt something strange. He frowned, stared at her and asked, "How do you know that I said such a thing to Madame Bai?" β
Shen Yan realized that she had said the wrong thing, and was busy explaining: "I listened to what Ning Anhou said......"
"That's not right!" Bai Zhong suddenly realized, "That thin and dark little man yesterday is you, right?" β
As soon as he said this, Shen Yan saw Shen Shichong's face that immediately darkened, and knew that he was going to be trained. And Bai Zhong knew that he was too surprised to say the wrong thing, so he hurriedly turned his head to the side. However, Shen Yan felt that his face was twitching from time to timeβhe was clearly gloating.
"Daddy...... I was wrong. Before Shen Shichong lost his temper, Shen Yan honestly admitted her mistake and lowered her head.
Strong condemnation from Shen Shichong is inevitable. However, there was a reason for the incident, and Shen Yan had a good attitude of admitting her mistakes, this time, Shen Shichong did not get angry. The important thing is that he still has important things to tell Bai Zhong at the moment.
Shen Yan thought that Bai Zhong was going to be taught a lesson by his father, so she followed him outside the study. There was silence in the study for a while, and at last, she heard her father speak.
"Zhong'er," Shen Shichong called in a low voice, "I call you Zhong'er, do you understand my intentions?" β
Compared to his previous sternness, this was the first time he had spoken to Bai Zhong so gently. Therefore, after Bai Zhong heard this, he was a little panicked in his heart. He shook his head, and the person who learned to be elegant said to Shen Shichong: "The student is stupid, and he still hopes that the teacher will teach him." β
"Okay," Shen Shichong sighed, "You don't pretend to be Sven in front of me, after pretending to be so long, I'm tired if you don't get tired." β
Bai Zhong couldn't get rid of it for a while, so he just stood in place and laughed.
"Lately, I've been dreaming of Yan'er and her mother." Shen Shichong said, "She said that she was very lonely under Jiuquan, and asked me to accompany her, regardless of the complexity of the world." Old people often say that if I have such dreams at my age, I will not live long. β
"Teacher......" Bai Zhong frowned, wanting to say something, but saw Shen Shichong waving his hand to him, signaling that he didn't need to say more, so he closed his mouth.
Shen Yan, who was outside the house, heard her father's words, and her heart was so distressed that she quickly turned red. This feeling is like knowing that a seriously ill loved one is about to lose his life and wants to say goodbye to him forever.
"Zhong'er, let me ask you, if I'm gone, will you treat Yan'er well?" When Shen Shichong said this, he undoubtedly explained what happened after his death.
"Of course I will." Bai Zhong's words were full of affirmation, "Yan'er and I have long been friends who don't talk about anything, and I am a student of the teacher, no matter now or in the future, I will be good to her." β
"Good!" Shen Shichong walked up to Bai Zhong after hearing this, put one hand on his shoulder, looked at him and said, "I hope you will do what you say." If one day I am really gone, you can treat my Yan'er like a relative. β
"Well, don't worry, teacher."
Bai Zhong didn't think about it much, he just listened to Shen Shichong trusting himself like this, as if he wanted to entrust his daughter to himself, and he was very happy in his heart. Only Shen Shichong and Shen Yan understood why such words of entrustment appeared at this time.
Just as the conversation between Shen Shichong and Bai Zhong was about to end, Shen Yan left in despair. She returned to her boudoir and sat on the cold stone table in the courtyard, scared, helpless, and sad, unable to lift her spirits.
"Miss? Miss, are you back? Xiyu's voice suddenly sounded from a distance, disturbing Shen Yan. She seemed very happy to see Shen Yan, but when she got closer and noticed that something was wrong with Shen Yan's face, she suppressed the joy on her face, and asked a little uneasily, "What's wrong with Miss?" β
"Where have you been? I didn't even come back to see you. Shen Yan withdrew the gaze that fell on her face, and moved her gaze to her hands on the table, looking a little listless.
"My lord has been snorting lately, so I went out to buy some colored threads, and wanted to show off a sachet for my lord and put some mint in it." Xiyu explained and stepped forward to help Shen Yan get up, and said, "The weather is cold, why is the young lady sitting at this stone table, and she is not afraid of getting cold?" If the young lady is sick, the old man will not be able to eat. β
Hearing her concern, Shen Yan finally showed a little smile, "Do you care about me, or do you care about my father?" β
"Master and Miss, of course I have to care." Seeing Shen Yan smiling, Xiyu's voice became much clearer. However, she quickly lowered her voice again and asked cautiously, "Miss, aren't you angry with me?" β
Of course, Shen Yan knew what she was worried about, and after thinking about it, she asked seriously: "Boss Yan and you, can you make it clear?" Do you still have to deal with each other? β
Xiyu nodded, and quickly shook her head violently, "I mean, to make it clear...... I won't be in contact with each other anymore. Her voice was full of loss.
Shen Yan took her hand and comforted her a few words. This matter is settled, but her father's blessing and misfortune have always been a stumbling block in her heart.
And when Shen Yan thought that this kind of uneasiness and panic came from the experience of the previous life and An Yangping's prophecy, the fuse of the catastrophe had already accumulated deeply, and it would eventually be ignited by the hands of a small man.
Three days later, the capital was filled with the sound of quarrels.
"You don't distinguish between right and wrong!" Hearing that his son accompanied the prince to embarrass Shen Shichong in Ning'an City, Gu Man severely accused Gu Chongzhi, but Gu Chongzhi did not repent, but gloated and even fought with him, he was angry, so he slapped him fiercely, "How can I have such a disloyal, unfilial, unkind and unrighteous rebel like you?" β
