Chapter 377 Visiting
  Shen Zhuoxi's words startled Hui Zhi.
  She said almost subconsciously: "It's impossible. If the child really belongs to His Highness, how can Qi Zhi, as a man, bear to raise a child for others?"
  Shen Zhuoxi didn't think about it: "If you want to know for sure what's going on, you have to take your pulse to find out. It seems that we have to come back in the afternoon."
  The master and servant walked towards Qingfeng Tower while talking.
  At the fork in the garden, I met the housekeeper and his maid hurriedly heading towards the front yard.
  The housekeeper walked in too hastily and didn't pay attention. He bumped into Shen Zhuoxi at the corner. He didn't even see the person clearly, so he covered his head and started to curse: "Oh, who is so ignorant?"
  "Open your eyes and see who is in front of you!" Hui Zhi supported Shen Zhuoxi and said angrily: "You are the one who didn't open your eyes!"
  After the housekeeper stood still and saw that the person in front of him was Shen Zhuoxi, he quickly put his hand down and said, "Second Miss, I'm so careless when I don't see clearly. You're a big man, don't be as knowledgeable as a villain."
  "You little bitch, did it hurt you?"
  Shen Zhuoxi frowned and shook his head, looking at Hui Zhi.
  Huizhi tacitly glanced at the maid behind the housekeeper, who was holding a lot of snacks and fresh fruits. Knowing that a guest was coming, she asked: "You don't even look at the road, what are you doing in such a hurry?"
  The butler said with a sneer: "We have a distinguished guest. I just went to inform the old lady and had to rush to the front to entertain you. I didn't catch my eye for a while and bumped into the second lady."
  "Distinguished guest?" Huizhi narrowed his eyes slightly: "Today's Shen family is not the former Imperial Master's Mansion. Everyone avoided it. Are there any distinguished guests?"
  "Isn't that true?" Although the housekeeper didn't like what Hui Zhi said, he didn't dare to show anything because Shen Zhuoxi was in front. He explained: "The eldest lady's husband is the eldest uncle of the Shen family."
  "When you visit us for the first time, you will naturally be treated as a distinguished guest."
  Qi Zhi showed up?
  Shen Zhuoxi narrowed his eyes slightly and said, "Since the new son-in-law of the Shen family is here, I can't hide. I'll go and have a look with you."
  The butler sighed, moved out of the way and said, "Please come forward."
  Before Shen Zhuoxi reached the front yard, she heard the young servants coming and going talking:
  "My new uncle is really handsome. It would be no exaggeration to call him the most handsome man in Shengdu."
  "My uncle is not from Shengdu. Don't forget that there is a rich and handsome King Yu in Shengdu."
  "His Royal Highness King Yu indeed has an outstanding temperament, but he is too cold and others don't even dare to take a second look at him. This new uncle is different, he is friendly."
  "It is indeed friendly. I just served him tea, and he actually smiled and said politely to me. There are so many high-ranking families in Shengdu, who son would be polite to his servants?"
  "You have a noble character and a good family background. This is the first time you come to visit me, and you bring enough things to fill the entire courtyard. Although it is not as good as when His Highness King Yu hired the second lady before, it is still a big deal."
  "By the way, speaking of this, it seems that my uncle and the eldest daughter got married without the order of their parents or the advice of a matchmaker, right?"
  "No, but the eldest lady was indeed very far away when she was in Zhuangzi. Is it excusable?"
  "It doesn't make sense according to the rules. My parents are still alive. No matter how far away from Zhuangzi I am, how far can I go to get married privately?"
  "Speaking of which, it was not honorable for the eldest lady to be driven to Zhuangzi in the first place. Perhaps this is why the eldest lady made her own decision to get married without going through the Shen family."
  "That's right. After the eldest lady left, the big house was indeed unseemly. The eldest lady died miserably after being deposed. The young master got a strange disease. The old man lost his title and lost his mind..."
  The maids and servants were talking enthusiastically, and no one noticed Shen Zhuoxi and the housekeeper behind them.
  The butler listened to the people talking more and more excitedly, coughed a few times, and said angrily: "You have nothing to do to talk about the master's right and wrong so early in the morning?"
  The maid and the young man turned around, and when they saw Shen Zhuoxi, they quickly saluted: "I've met the second lady."
  "Let's all go to work." Shen Zhuoxi raised his hand and said, "The Grand Master's Mansion is not finished, but the master is the master, and it is not something that can be discussed casually."
  "If there's another time, I'll sell it half dead!"
  Several people hurriedly responded and ran away. The housekeeper stared at their backs and sighed: "After the plaque of the Taishi Mansion was removed, the people below made a lot of speculations."
  "In addition, the master has not recovered yet, and he is not very sober. The old lady is already old, and there is no one who can make decisions in the house..."
  Shen Zhuoxi didn't say anything, but asked instead: "Don't you still want to entertain distinguished guests? Are you interested in mourning the heaven and earth?"
  The housekeeper then put aside his expression and followed Shen Zhuoxi into the front yard.
  As several maids said, as soon as they walked around the porch, they saw many boxes placed in the yard.
  Although the box was not tied with red silk, judging from the size, Qi Zhi wanted to make up for the betrothal gift.
  Qi Zhi was sitting in the main hall, dressed in snow-white clothes, with large peach blossoms embroidered on the cuffs and hem, and a circle of green leaves on the collar.
  Such a coquettish combination, and a men's robe, should have been very weird, but Qi Zhi suddenly looked a little unruly in it.
  As for the face, it can indeed be called handsome, but it has a somewhat feminine look.
  For some reason, Shen Zhuoxi felt that Qi Zhi's face looked familiar at first glance, as if he had seen it somewhere.
  Seeing Shen Zhuoxi stop, the housekeeper was a little suspicious: "Second Miss, why don't you go over and take a look?"
  "Go over there." Shen Zhuoxi quickened his pace, walked towards the main hall, and asked casually: "Have you notified me yet?"
  "The villain went to see the old lady first." The steward explained: "The old lady means that the master has not recovered yet and is afraid of scaring the distinguished guests, so he pretends to be ill and disappears."
  Shen Zhuoxi frowned and said, "If I don't recover, will I never see my uncle again for the rest of my life?"
  "This..." The housekeeper was a little embarrassed: "You also know the situation in the house. The old lady has spoken, and the villain does not dare to disobey."
  "That's all, let's go meet the guests first." When Shen Zhuoxi was speaking, he saw Qi Zhi looking over.
  Qi Zhi is an alert person. He has long noticed that someone is watching him. He turns around pretending not to know and his eyes meet a bright girl in goose-yellow clothes.
  Shen Zhuoxi looked away the moment their eyes met, but Qi Zhi did not.
  His eyes were a bit playful as he saw prey, and he asked the maid standing beside him: "Who is that?"
  The maid followed his words and introduced: "This is the second young lady in the house. She is engaged to His Highness King Yu and will get married next month."
  "Oh." Qi Zhi nodded with sudden realization. Before he could speak, Shen Zhuoxi was already in front of him.
  "Second Miss Shen." Qi Zhi took the lead in greeting her and said, "Although I'm not in Shengdu, I've long heard that the Second Miss has excellent medical skills. Now that I see that she's actually the same age as Nutmeg, I'm really impressed."
  "Young Master Qi is polite." Shen Zhuoxi looked at Qi Zhi with a faint smile.
  When you are far away, you can only see an outline, but when you are face to face, you can see Qi Zhi's expression clearly.
  He maintained a smile on his face, gentle and gentle, which was just right, but there was an imperceptible hint of evil in his eyes.
  Shen Zhuoxi didn't think that Qi Zhi would admire her medical skills as much as he said on the surface.
  She paused and said with a smile: "A few days ago, I made a bet with Lang Zhong from Renyi Hall. By the way, it's time for the results to come out today. Mr. Qi, sit down for a moment while I go to resolve the matter first."
