Sang Nuanyue slept all morning, and was only called out by Su Jin when she was having lunch. But she had a severe headache, so she simply drank a bowl of crucian carp soup for lunch, then lay back on the bed and continued to sleep.
After sleeping for another two hours, Sang Nuanyue finally got up after having enough sleep.
But when she got up, her brother hadn't come back yet.
Sang Nuanyue looked at the hourglass behind the door and saw that it was already the end of the hour.
However, considering that Yingtian Academy is relatively far from the capital, it takes one and a half hours to go there alone, and three hours to go back and forth. Coupled with the time for exams and meal time, it seems that it makes sense to come back later.
But this is his younger brother's "entrance exam" after all. Sang Nianyue's statement that he is not worried is a lie. If she was sleeping well before and didn't care about this matter at all, now that she woke up, she really couldn't hold anything else in her mind except this matter.
Fortunately, there was no need for Sang Nuanyue to wait too long. Another hour had passed. Sang Nuanyue heard movement in the outer courtyard, and she could still vaguely hear Qing'er's voice.
Sang Nianyue was wandering around the backyard, but now she couldn't bear it anymore and quickly went to the front yard at the risk of meeting Shen Tingjun.
But she arrived late. When she arrived in the front yard, she only saw Qing'er saying goodbye to Shen Tingjun.
The man in the black robe was sitting on the tall horse. He seemed to look back at her, but he didn't seem to. He simply pulled the reins, and the horse began to kick and walk. Then trot, then run quickly, and in just a blink of an eye, we were out of Willow Alley.
Qing'er watched Shen Tingjun and his party go away, and then asked her servants to close the door. He jumped up high and lively, then shouted, "Master, I'm going to Yingtian Academy to study," and turned around to go to the back house to find his sister.
As a result, he turned around and saw his sister standing right behind him. If he hadn't been flexible enough to dodge quickly, he might have bumped into his sister when he landed.
However, Qing'er had no time to tell his sister some "safety precautions" at this time. He couldn't wait to hold her sister in circles.
"Sister, I was admitted to Yingtian Academy. The master asked me to go to class tomorrow. I was assigned to the yellow class. Sister, from now on, the master will teach me to study systematically, and I will soon be able to learn the Six Arts of the Gentleman. Learn how to bow, horse, ride and shoot. Sister, wait until I come back from my next vacation, and I will take you out to ride horses and enjoy the lotus flowers."
Sang Nuanyue had no intention of arguing with her brother. When he next took a bath, it would be summer and the weather would definitely be extremely hot. Who will go with him to enjoy lotus flowers? The sun is so strong, it would be strange not to faint and tan her.
But Sang Nuanyue saw that her brother was so happy that she had no intention of hurting him. I could only hold his hand and go to the flower hall, while asking patiently, "How many days do you need to take a break? Which master taught you? Have you met the master who is going to teach you? What is his temperament? What did Shu Xiu say, is he going to teach you?" Do you need to buy six gifts, or just pay money? What about a place to stay? You have been assigned a dormitory. How many students are in a dormitory? How are their temperaments? Are they easy to get along with? There are also students who study in the academy. If so, how many can be brought? If not, what should I do..."
Sang Nuanyue's questions were so detailed that Qing'er's scalp went numb and she didn't know which question to answer first.
Fortunately, her sister quickly stopped talking, and Qing'er took advantage of this gap to answer the questions he could remember one by one.
The resting time for the students of Yingtian Academy is consistent with the resting time for the ministers of the DPRK. They both rest every ten days, which means they can rest for three days a month.
He had met the master who taught him. He was a middle-aged man who was elegant and well-behaved. I heard that he is the disciple of the deputy mountain chief and has been serving him beside him. After the deputy mountain chief became an official, he taught at Yingtian Academy, and this student also went to Yingtian Academy to teach students. Of course, taking care of students is secondary, the main thing is to ensure that there is no shortage of people around the teacher to serve him.
And from this gentleman's behavior, we can also know that this gentleman is actually a person who respects teachers and Taoism. And since he has been serving his master all year round, he must have a gentle and ruthless temperament. Otherwise, anyone who has been serving the enigmatic deputy mountain commander for ten years would be a little overwhelmed. There is nothing to say about Mr. Huang's character, and he has a very good temper, but he also has a majestic side. In short, the academy specifically asked Mr. Huang to teach the newly admitted students in the yellow class, taking all aspects into consideration. So, sister really doesn’t have to worry about this.
Qing'er added that Shu Xiu could just give him the money directly, but the Marquis had already asked someone to hand it over to Shu Xiu for him, and he didn't know the exact amount of money spent.
The accommodation dormitories have also been arranged, and they are all quadruple rooms. The other three students in the same dormitory as him were also in the yellow class, but they were taking equestrian classes at the time, and he didn't go there to meet them, so naturally he didn't know what their temperaments were.
However, Master Huang specially arranged this dormitory for him, and the Marquis was still there at that time. Presumably even to give the Marquis face, Master Huang would not place him in a room with difficult students.
As for the servants, they are not allowed to take care of them in the academy. All matters in the academy are handled by themselves and no servants are allowed to do it for them. What's worse, the servants cannot even enter the academy.
Sang Nuanyue was dumbfounded when she heard the last part. She and her brother stared at each other, "No one is close enough to serve you, how can you do that?"
Qing'er waited for a moment before slapping her chest, "What's wrong with that? Don't worry, sister, I can do it."
The tone was quite loud, but no matter how Sang Nianyue looked at it, she felt that her brother was very guilty. Thinking about it, he was not sure whether he could adapt to life in the academy without being a servant.
But where are the rules of the academy, it is impossible to make an exception for you.
Sang Nuanyue said: "Then you should adapt to it for a month. If you feel it's okay, then continue to go to the academy..."
"Sister, there's nothing you can't do. You have to do it even if you can't. Others can adapt, so can I. I don't have any fewer arms or legs than others. Why can't I do it when others can still study freely without me? I see. Are you stupider than others, or are you less thoughtful than others?"
Sang Nuanyue: "...Okay, if you feel uncomfortable, just tell me as soon as possible, and my sister will send someone to bring you back."
"Sister, please give up this idea. I drop out of school halfway. I don't want to do it a third time."
"Why is it the third time..." Halfway through her words, Sang Nianyue suddenly thought of Shi Xingzhou. My younger brother also consulted Shi Xingzhou for a long time. If Shi Xingzhou is included, my younger brother indeed "dropped out" twice. But it really can’t happen a third time, otherwise it won’t be heard if it gets spread.
Thinking of this, Sang Nuanyue sighed, "You just need to know what's going on. We don't drop out of school on purpose, but if you are forced to do nothing, don't care too much about worldly opinions."
Qing'er said "Okay" twice, looked at his sister's face and saw that there was no change, and he felt relieved.
Just say that why did he think of Shi Xingzhou for no reason? Could it be because I saw Shi Xingzhou on the official road today, so I just said what was on my mind without saying anything.
Yes, today after Qing'er went out with Shen Tingjun, she met Shi Xingzhou at the city gate who wanted to take over.
Shi Xingzhou left the Hou Mansion and was sent to a remote county to serve as a county magistrate.
After being transferred, he married the daughter of a wealthy businessman who was already engaged, and then returned home. The delay lasted for less than ten days in total. After packing up our luggage and seeing that today was an auspicious day, the family left the capital for their appointment.
Shi Xingzhou looked very surprised when he saw him standing with Mr. Hou. But because both parties were in a hurry, there was not much exchange of greetings, and the two parties quickly parted ways.
But now that they were far away, Qing'er couldn't help but glance sideways at Shi Xingzhou. As a result, at this moment, Shi Xingzhou opened the curtain of the carriage and looked in the direction of him and the Marquis.
What do you think of the look on the boat at that time? Some are puzzled, some are suddenly enlightened, and some still seem a little obscure.
Qing'er didn't know what Shi Xingzhou was thinking about, but he was at the age of strong curiosity, so she kept worrying about that look in his mind, thinking about it in her heart to find out what Shi Xingzhou was thinking at that time. What.
Unfortunately, it was to no avail.
Dinner was served quickly, and Qing'er quickly forgot about Shi Xingzhou. We may not meet anyone again in this life, so why think about him again? Now we should think carefully about what we need to bring to the academy. But don't miss anything when the time comes. There will be no servants to help with errands at that time. If he really lacks any necessities, he will suffer.
The two siblings were eating and talking, and the atmosphere was quite cheerful.
However, just as they were finishing their meal and preparing to go back to their respective rooms to rest, Uncle Li suddenly walked over in a hurry from outside.
"Girl, please take a look quickly. The wet nurse sent someone to send you a letter. She said that the matter is urgent, and she asked you to make a decision quickly after reading the letter."
Sang Nuanyue's heart skipped a beat, and she had a premonition in her heart. Even Qing'er, who was about to leave, rushed to her sister in twos and twos.
He yelled eagerly, his voice changing slightly: "Sister, please open the letter quickly and take a look. There is news about my eldest brother, right?"
When Sang Nuanyue heard this, her already eager heart beat faster. Her hands were shaking so much that she couldn't even hold the letter. Finally, Qing'er couldn't stand it any longer. He snatched the letter from her hand, tore open the envelope, and then stuffed the letter back into her sister's hand.
Sang Nuanyue took a deep breath, and her chaotic mind finally calmed down. She picked up the letter and read it carefully, then her expression suddenly changed.
After reading one piece, Sang Nuoyue handed the letter to her brother, and then continued to read the next piece. After reading all the letters, time seemed to have passed for just one breath, and it seemed to have passed for a long time.
Sang Nuanyue shook her hands and her eyes were red. Qing'er took the last piece of letter paper from her hand and her voice became hoarse after reading it.
But then he hugged his sister and said, "Sister, don't hesitate, pack your things quickly, we will go to Minzhou overnight."
On the nanny's letter, she clearly wrote that the gangster who planned to kill Uncle Wang had indeed committed the crime for the third time. Only this time he was caught by the escort hired by the wet nurse who paid a lot of money to go ahead.
The man was severely beaten, but he still refused to confess anything. He was sent to the Yamen and tortured. Only then did he say that someone hired him to kill someone.
What he wanted to kill was not anyone else, but everyone who came to look for Sang Fuyue.
The letter came to an abrupt end here. It was obvious that the nanny was too shocked and excited after learning the news, so she couldn't wait for the subsequent interrogation by the Yamen, and even asked someone to deliver the letter to her at night.
There is news about the eldest brother. The eldest brother must still be alive in this world, and he must be in Minzhou.
Otherwise, no one would send such a person, and after ten years of waiting, someone might come looking for Sang Fuyue.
The eldest brother is still alive!
But the current situation of the eldest brother is definitely not good!
Sang Nuoyue hugged her brother and cried uncontrollably.
She had lived by one belief for so many years, but one day when the news was confirmed that her eldest brother was still alive, she was ecstatic and at a loss, but more importantly, she felt sad and sighing as to why their brother and sister were so miserable.
If God really has a vision, how could he be willing to let these brother and sister separate for so many years!
Sang Nuanyue just sobbed at first, but then she couldn't help holding her brother and crying bitterly.
She cried about her own misfortune, she cried about her eldest brother's misfortune, and she cried about the fact that her parents died early, leaving the three siblings to suffer hardships and hardships in the world.
But she was grateful, because while she was waiting blindly, just when she was disheartened, the news of her eldest brother's survival was finally confirmed.
If he was not still alive, who would try every means to kill the person who came to find him?
Sang Nuanyue was crying and laughing, as if she was going crazy.
But none of the servants around him would say anything unpleasant, because they all knew the Sang family's affairs very well. They all also understood that Sang Nianyue stubbornly denied that her brother had been killed, and stubbornly insisted on not allowing anyone to erect a tomb or monument for her brother. This was her belief in living. She stubbornly lived in this world with this belief and raised her younger brother, but she never thought that maybe the belief she used to support herself would come true one day.
Even Suwen and Suying were deeply moved when they saw this scene, and they didn't know what to say for a while.
But there is no solution for the girl to keep crying like this. If her body is broken from crying, how can she go to Minzhou to find the eldest son?
Yes, although they didn't spend much time together with Sang Nianyue, the two maids with thoughtful minds had already guessed what Sang Nianyue might do next.
Sure enough, when Sang Nianyue stopped crying, her first words were: "Qing'er, I want to go to Minzhou to find my elder brother."
This was not a discussion, let alone a question, but a decisive decision, and no one could stop her from making this decision.
But how could Qing'er stop her sister?
If the brother is still alive, all the responsibilities will be shouldered by him, and the sister will be able to relieve herself of the burden she has carried for ten years. She works too hard, she should take a break.
Qing'er said with red eyes, "Go, not only sister is going, but I am also going. Let's go to Minzhou together to find the eldest brother. Even if we search every corner of Minzhou, we will definitely find the eldest brother."
Sang Nianyue hesitated this time. When Qing'er saw this, she said: "Sister, you don't want to keep me here, do you? There's such a big thing happening at home, and it's thousands of miles away from Beijing to Minzhou, I don't want to I’ll rest assured that you can go to Minzhou by yourself.”
"I won't go by myself. I'll take Uncle Li with me, and then Su Wen Suying and the others. If you're still worried, I'll take Li Cheng and the others with me. I have so many people protecting me, so you should do this Are you relieved?"
"Okay sister, after all, you just don't want to take me there. You took everyone in the family away and left me alone. Sister, you are so cruel."
Sang Nianyue reasoned with her brother in a good voice, "But what can you do if you follow me? You haven't met your eldest brother. Even if you really meet him, can you recognize him? Qing'er, be good and tomorrow Go to the academy to study honestly. Since you have agreed on a time with Master Huang, you shouldn't change it casually. You have to be trustworthy, and you don't want to leave a bad impression on Master Huang, right?"
"But how can I change my itinerary casually? I am looking for my elder brother who has been missing for ten years. I believe Master Huang will agree with my move if he knows the reason."
"But just like my sister said, what can you do to help if you go?"
Sang Nianyue's question stopped Qing'er. When his eldest brother was alive and dead, he was just a little older and not old enough to remember. He didn't even know what his eldest brother looked like, so how could he find out who was his eldest brother among the people on the street.
But Qing'er was completely uneasy about leaving him in the capital and letting her sister deal with this matter on her own. So he quibbled and said: "Didn't my sister say that my eldest brother and I are about 35% similar? I don't know what my eldest brother looks like, but I know what I look like. Sister, please don't try to persuade me. I must go to Minzhou."
But Qing'er's determination obviously could not determine the final result. The final result was that Sang Nianyue could not reason with him, so the eldest sister's majesty could only decide the matter directly.
If Qing'er agrees, it's best. If he doesn't, he still can't escape the outcome of being put into a carriage and sent to the academy the next day.
When Qing'er heard this, she couldn't help but be stunned. He said in disbelief: "Sister, how can you be so unreasonable?"
"I've reasoned with you, but since it doesn't make sense, I won't do it anymore."
Qing'er felt aggrieved: "Sister, I really don't trust you, and I really want to do something for you."
Sang Nianyue was silent for a moment and then said: "But Qing'er, someone in Minzhou wants to stop us from looking for my eldest brother, which means there are risks in Minzhou. How can I tolerate my eldest brother being involved in danger, and then let you step into that place too?" In the unknown fire pit.”
Sang Nuoyue couldn't help but shed tears again, "Qing'er, sister only has one heart. Now my heart can only remember my brother. Just listen to my sister's advice once, and you can stay in the capital safely. Don't Please let my sister stop worrying about you, okay? Otherwise, if I really get you involved, my sister won’t want to live anymore."
All the nonsense words Qing'er wanted to say were immediately blocked in her throat and she couldn't spit them out. He looked at his sister's choked appearance and finally uttered one word slowly, "Okay."
In order to appease her younger brother, Sang Nianyue got up early the next morning and prepared to send her younger brother to Yingtian Academy in person.
This trip has two purposes. One is to appease Qing'er and let him stay in the academy and not try to go south. The other one also wants to meet Master Huang and tell Master Huang what happened, so that Master Huang can keep an eye on Qing'er at all times and prevent Qing'er from violating the rules.
Because this trip was necessary, and because she had known for a long time that Shen Tingjun would personally send Qing'er to school today, Sang Nianyue didn't look surprised at all when she saw Shen Tingjun.
On the contrary, it was Shen Tingjun. When he saw Sang Nianyue looking at him calmly, he greeted him in such a gentle and virtuous manner. This moment seemed to return to the time when they first met, making Shen Tingjun feel a little dazed.
When Qing'er saw Shen Tingjun parking his horse on the side of the carriage, he couldn't help but said: "Master Marquis, please get on the carriage. The weather outside is not very good today. It won't rain soon."
Shen Tingjun said slowly: "Let's wait until it rains. Let's go first, it's getting late now."
The motorcade started to drive slowly, and Sang Ningyue sat upright, not squinting, just holding the tea cup in her hand and sipping tea one sip at a time.
Qing'er couldn't sit still, so he opened the curtain on his side and talked to Shen Tingjun.
One moment he said: "There are fewer pedestrians on the road today than yesterday" and another moment he said, "Seeing that summer is here, I originally planned to take my sister to ride a horse to enjoy the lotus flowers this summer, but now it seems that I can't do that."
As he spoke, he had a disappointed look on his face, looking wilted and unhappy, looking pitiful and cruel.
But Sang Nianyue just glanced sideways at her brother to tell him to calm down, then turned her head again, trying to ignore the movement on the other side.
Shen Tingjun seemed to just ask casually, as if he was just perfunctory with Qing'er, and said: "Is it because you haven't learned to ride a horse yet, or you can't find a place to appreciate the lotus?"
Qing'er was waiting for his question, so Sang Nianyue didn't have time to stop him and heard Qing'er explain everything quickly.
"There is news about my brother. My sister is going to Minzhou to find her brother. If things go well during this trip, we may not be able to come back in a month or two. But if things don't go well, we may not be able to come back even years ago."
Shen Tingjun was able to look at Sang Nianyue openly this time, and as expected, he saw her staring at her brother with a look of shame and annoyance. And her slender white palms were slightly raised, as if she wanted to pat her brother, and tell him anything if he was told to talk too much. But Xu Shi happened to catch his gaze, and Xu Shi also felt that it was not good to be seen by passersby outside the car window, so she just turned sideways angrily and stopped looking at him and Qing'er.
Without waiting for Qing'er to say anything more, Shen Tingjun seemed to have not heard the news last night and had just learned the shocking news at this time. He frowned and asked: "Is there any news about your elder brother? My cousin is also going to Minzhou?"
Qing'er was a very agile person and almost immediately noticed what the Marquis was saying.
He didn't bother to explain his eldest brother's matter to Shen Tingjun, but couldn't wait to grab the wooden frame of the car window, almost wanting to lean out half of his body.
Qing'er asked urgently: "Mr. Hou, what do you mean by that? Why do you mean that my sister is also going to Minzhou? Is anyone known by Mr. Hou also going to Minzhou? Who is that person?" Can you protect me on the way? Sister?
Fortunately, she still had reason, so Qing'er didn't ask her last words. He was thinking that it would be okay if it was a female family member who went to Minzhou. There was nothing to say about taking care of his sister. But if it’s a man, forget it. My sister is so beautiful, and their status is not high. If someone takes care of her and has evil intentions, he will not have room to cry.
But to Qing'er's expectation, Shen Tingjun said: "It's not anyone else who goes to Minzhou, but me."
Not only Qing'er looked at him in surprise, but Sang Nianyue couldn't help it anymore and turned around suspiciously.
In the confused, surprised and disbelieving eyes of the siblings, Shen Tingjun nodded slightly and confirmed: "The lawsuit on the salt road in Minzhou has reached the palace. His Majesty has appointed officials from the third department to go to Minzhou to thoroughly investigate the case. The Censor of Zuodu of the Inspectorate is old and cannot travel far, and the Minister of Punishment is from the north. He is seasick and cannot wade in the water. Therefore, I will lead the team south this time."
Things are reasonable and reasonable, and besides, this is a tolerance, not an itinerary that can be determined just by saying it is certain. Therefore, after listening to Shen Tingjun's words, even though Sang Nianyue still had doubts in her heart, she had to suppress the deepest feeling in her heart that "this thing is too clever".
It's not like Sang Nianyue thinks too much, makes things too complicated, and demonizes Shen Tingjun's actions. Qing'er didn't think about anything messy, he just thought it was such a coincidence. He was also worried that his sister would go to Minzhou on her own and her personal safety could not be guaranteed. But coincidentally, the Marquis was about to go to Minzhou on business. This is really the best thing to do when sleepiness meets a pillow.
Qing'er burst into laughter and quickly asked the Marquis: "The Marquis is going to Minzhou to investigate the case. The trip must be very urgent, right? Should we leave today or tomorrow? Also, should the Marquis go south by land or by bus?" Going by boat? If we go by boat, will we take an official ship or an ordinary passenger ship?"
Shen Tingjun seemed to be simply satisfying his curiosity, and said: "Since the matter has reached the imperial court, it is natural to leave as early as possible to make an appointment. I originally planned to travel this afternoon. Since I am in a hurry, it is most convenient to take a boat. I will set off by official boat at that time. , we won’t stop anywhere else on the way, we will go directly to Minzhou.”
"That's great." Qing'er clapped her hands excitedly, and then ignored her sister's tugging on his clothes, Qing'er struck while the iron was hot: "The Marquis's official ship must be very big, right? It's necessary to carry a few more people, right?" Mr. Hou is the most considerate and enthusiastic person. Why don't Mr. Hou take my sister to Minzhou? To be honest with Mr. Hou, although my sister wants to take the family members with her, I am still worried that something unexpected will happen to her on the way. If my sister can sit down I'm so relieved that the Marquis's official ship has passed by. Master Marquis, could you please take my sister to Minzhou for my sake?"
Shen Tingjun couldn't help but chuckle, Sang Nuoyue's face turned red, and he pulled his brother over with force. She said to her brother: "I asked you not to talk nonsense, but you still said that the Marquis is going out on official business, and there must be many officials accompanying him. What's the matter with me coming over? Okay, okay, you don't need to worry about this matter. I have asked Uncle Li to buy a boat ticket."
Qing'er didn't dare to say anything more and just looked at Shen Tingjun eagerly.
Shen Tingjun looked at Sang Nianyue and said: "Because the matter is urgent and requires covert and covert visits, Your Majesty ordered me to go first, and the other officials will wait for three days before setting off."
Shen Tingjun said one word at a time: "If my cousin wants to go to Minzhou, you might as well come with me. I will take an official boat to go south. There will be no outsiders on the boat, and the destination will go directly to Minzhou without stopping on the way. My cousin will go with me. I want to come more Cheaper."
Qing'er echoed: "That's right, that's right."
Sang Nianyue turned her face away and refused again, "I won't bother Mr. Hou. Uncle Li has gone to buy a boat ticket. We can just go there on a passenger ship."
Shen Tingjun looked at her and said one word after a long time, "Okay."
Maybe it was because of Sang Nuanyue's rejection, maybe it was because the weather was getting hotter and muggier, and there were fewer people talking on the road. During the journey from the city gate to Yingtian Academy, several people did not speak more than two sentences.
When they arrived at Yingtian Academy and settled Qing'er, the black clouds above them pressed down, and it was like a heavy rainstorm.
Upon seeing this, Qing'er asked them to stay in the academy for a while, and it would be safe to return to the city after the rain had passed.
Sang Nianyue was thinking about her elder brother and didn't want to be with Shen Tingjun anymore, so she refused and said, "You can go to class and don't worry about us. But my sister won't be able to return to Beijing for at least a month or two after she leaves. I asked Li Cheng I'll stay and take care of you, and there are some old people in the house for you to take care of, is that okay?"
Qing'er only said: "I am in the academy, and I don't need anyone to serve me. I have bamboo leaves and bamboo greens at the foot of the mountain waiting for my summons. Sister, please take Li Cheng away. Li Cheng is good at martial arts and is honest and loyal. , I can rest assured that he will follow you."
Sang Nuanyue said "hmm" twice, but only she knew whether she listened to Qing'er's words.
She waved her hand and walked out. Shen Tingjun also patted Qing'er on the shoulder, then turned around and walked out. Qing'er just watched her sister and Shen Houyuan's retreating figures. For some reason, she felt an increasingly strange feeling in her heart.
Is Shen Hou too close to his sister?
As the two of them descended the mountain, there was already roaring thunder in their ears. A strong wind blew, causing sand and rocks to fly on the ground. The dust flew into people's eyes, making it difficult to open them.
Sang Nuanyue staggered and was almost knocked to the ground by the strong wind. Fortunately, Shen Tingjun hugged her waist, then held her wrist and walked down the mountain.
Sang Nuanyue struggled for a few times before she could get away, so she said softly: "There is someone here, please don't be presumptuous, Lord Marquis."
Her voice was low, like a mosquito humming in the rumbling thunder, but Shen Tingjun's hearing was sharp, and he didn't miss a word that he should hear.
He stopped immediately and looked sideways at Sang Nuanyue's awkward expression, "I don't mean to be arrogant, but if I let you go now, you might be blown away by the wind."
Before Sang Nianyue could say anything else, Shen Tingjun said again: "Hurry down the mountain. At least you can get in the carriage to avoid the rain. If you get caught in the rain on the mountain road and get sick, I'm afraid you won't be able to get there as soon as possible. Go to Minzhou."
Sang Nuanyue remained silent, obviously thinking about this. She remained silent and obeyed, letting Shen Tingjun tighten his grip on her wrist and take her down the mountain road, and then the two of them got into the carriage together.
That is, as soon as they got into the carriage, it felt as if someone had poked a hole in the sky. Heavy rain poured down, causing countless water splashes on the ground.
Fortunately, this is the foothills of Yingtian Academy, because on weekdays many parents send off students here, and some students are short of pens, inks, paper and inkstones and are unwilling to go to the city to buy them, so this area is slowly being built. Many shops and houses.
But now, whether it was Li Cheng who was driving the car, Cheng Yi who was next to Shen Tingjun, or Su Jin who was next to her, they all went to a nearby shop to take shelter from the rain, and there were only two people left in the car.
