Chapter 88 Jiang’s visit
  Shen Zhuoyun was under the same roof and naturally heard the conversation between Shen Jia and Xiao Yichen.

He comforted Mrs. Gu and said, "Not for the time being. The magistrate of Wucheng, the magistrate of Bozhou, and the imperial doctor Qin all wrote that she was Shen Shen. The eldest grandson of the emperor also specifically told the emperor about Jia'er's identity and asked the emperor to keep Jia'er's identity secret. information.

Jia'er has many ideas and ideas. The emperor still needs Jia'er. He will not let anyone leak the news. Besides, the emperor's eldest grandson has been crowned king. They are busy dealing with the emperor's eldest grandson. How can they have time to pay attention to us? "

Mrs. Gu breathed a sigh of relief, "That's good!" Then she clasped her hands together and said silently: I hope the emperor's eldest grandson is safe!
  After Xiao Yichen left, Shen Jia was very busy every day.

Practice martial arts, learn rules and etiquette, print "Journey to the West", go into the mountains to find medicinal materials to make poisons, guide family members, Li Damei and Liu Erhu to practice martial arts, read books, and go to the medicine store to check the growth of herbal medicines.

On this day, Shen Jia was learning the rules and etiquette. Jiang knocked on the door with two bags of snacks, "Sister Gu, are you at home?"

"Hey, Sister Jiang, what brought you here?" Mrs. Gu opened the door and asked in surprise.

Mrs. Jiang handed the snacks to Mrs. Gu and said with a smile, "My Fan'er was able to pass the scholar examination thanks to Mr. Shen's teachings over the years. The last time I fell ill, it was thanks to Miss Shen's treatment that I was out of danger. Shen We will definitely remember our family’s great kindness and virtue and never forget it.”

"Sister Jiang is so commendable. As a young man, he is talented, diligent and eager to learn. It is only a matter of time before he gets an honor. As for Jia'er, as a doctor, it is her duty to save lives and heal the wounded. She does not deserve Sister Jiang's praise." Mrs. Gu Said modestly.

"Sister Gu is too self-effacing. Fan'er told me that Mr. Shen's talent is better than the knowledge of their school master. Miss Shen is a good girl with a pure heart. She is one of the best girls in a million. Such a beautiful girl is not I know which family's man will be lucky enough to marry Miss Shen in the future." Jiang said with a smile.

Mrs. Gu is a smart person. Mrs. Jiang rarely visited the Shen family when her husband was alive. Today, she suddenly came to the door with snacks. She openly said that she was grateful to Shen Zhuoyun for teaching Xu Fan and Shen Jia for saving her, but secretly she left no trace. Ask if Shen Jia is engaged. In the past, she might have considered it, but since Shen Jia talked to her last time, she stopped thinking about it.

Mrs. Gu took a sip of tea and said with a smile, "Jia'er is still young and there is no need to think about marriage so soon."

Jiang's smile froze, and she almost couldn't hold on to the smile on her lips. She drank tea to relieve her embarrassment, "Yes, Miss Shen is beautiful and has a lot of abilities. It's right to choose slowly. But I think, If you have a good man around you, it would be best to get engaged first and then slowly develop a relationship."

"Alas! I have made up my mind too, but there is no man around who is suitable for Jia'er." Gu said with a sigh.

Hearing this, Mrs. Jiang could no longer hold on to the smile on her face, "Sister Gu, I still have something to do at home, so I won't talk about it for now. I'll come over to chat with you another day." After finishing speaking, Mrs. Jiang hurried away, as if being caught. It's like burning your butt.

Gu shook his head and laughed.

Shen Jia walked out of the room, took Gu's hand and praised, "Mom did a good job this time."

Mrs. Gu stretched out her right index finger and tapped Shen Jia's forehead, and said helplessly: "You really don't think about Boy Fan?"

Shen Jia shook his head, "I don't think about it. I treat him like an older brother, how can I like him."

Jiang's face turned gloomy instantly as he walked out of the Shen Family Courtyard.

At first, when Fan'er told her that he wanted to marry the Shen family, she disagreed.

The conditions of the Shen family are good. Miss Shen is good-looking and has superb medical skills, but so what?

The Shen family came from the capital to live in seclusion in Beili Village. She would never believe it if there was no hidden secret. The little girl of the Shen family goes in and out with a group of men all day long, without any concern for the safety of men and women. Which family would be willing to marry such a woman?
  Yes, the little girl of the Shen family saved her, but she had no way of repaying her life-saving grace. She was willing to burn incense and pray to Buddha day and night to ask Bodhisattva to bless her, but she was absolutely unwilling to let her son marry her.

Her family's Fan'er has already been admitted as a scholar and has a bright future. There will be many noble girls for her to choose from in the future. Why should she marry a woman whose family background is unknown and has no rules?

She didn't expect Fan'er to kneel in front of her and say that he only liked Miss Shen, and no matter how good other women were, they were not the ones he liked. He also begged her to go to the Shen family to find out if they were interested in getting married. In desperation, she had no choice but to come here. Who knew that as soon as she started to inquire in a vague way, Gu refused.

She should have been very happy to be rejected by Mr. Gu, but she felt unhappy. Her son was handsome, elegant, and talented. There was no one better than her son from all over the country. Mr. Gu actually refused. Already?
  When Xu Fan heard Gu's footsteps, he walked out of the room with a smile on his face. Seeing Jiang's ugly face, his face changed slightly, and his heart suddenly fell to the bottom. He asked cautiously: "Mom, Aunt Gu. Refused?"

Jiang nodded expressionlessly.

Xu Fan was stunned, then strode out, his voice a little vague, "Should I go to the Shen family to ask?"

"Stop!" Jiang shouted loudly.

Xu Fan turned around slowly, his eyes were red, and his voice was slightly trembling, "Mom, I want to ask clearly? Otherwise, I won't be able to pass the test in my heart."

After Xu Fan finished speaking, he turned around, raised his hand to quietly wipe away the tears falling from the corners of his eyes, and ran out quickly.

He has liked sister Xiaojia since he was a child. Every time he hears her sweetly call "Brother Xu Fan", he can be happy for a long time.

He always went to Shen's house to ask for homework, hoping to meet sister Xiaojia. He went to Shen's house ten times and saw her once at most. He always came with high expectations and returned disappointed. Even so, he was happy with it.

As long as he saw her, he felt that the sky was so blue, the water was so clear, and even the air was so fresh and sweet.

He thought that as long as he worked hard and passed the exam, he would be qualified to propose marriage to her. Unexpectedly, the reality gave him a blow. Aunt Gu would not give him a chance at all.

While Xu Fan was thinking wildly, people had already arrived outside the Shen family's courtyard. Looking at the high courtyard wall and the closed door, Xu Fan hesitated. He was afraid of hearing Shen Jia's rejection with his own ears.

At this moment, the door creaked and Shen Hao walked out.

"Brother Xu, why are you here? Why don't you knock on the door and get in?" Shen Hao asked in surprise.

Xu Fan's face turned red when he heard this, and he already regretted coming to the Shen family. He pretended to be calm on his face and whispered: "It's nothing, I just haven't seen you for a long time, and I wanted to come and have a discussion with you."

"Okay! I haven't competed with you for a long time. Today we two brothers will fight in two games. Come on, follow me in." Shen Hao opened the door and invited Xu Fan in.

Xu Fan tried to calm down his emotions and followed Shen Hao into Shen's house.
