Miss Chu looked at Nanzhi and didn't speak for a long time. After a while, she said, "But I can't help but think about all kinds of things, and I feel scared when I think about it."
"What kind of husband will my stepmother choose for me? It won't be a good one."
"She has always had a sweet face but a bitter heart, and she is always good at saving face."
As Miss Chu spoke, she actually started crying.
Nanzhi was a little at a loss, why did he make someone cry?
Nanzhi could only tentatively pat Miss Chu's back, "Sister, don't cry, your body should feel uncomfortable."
She racked her brains and said: "Our brains will attack us and come up with all kinds of thoughts. Painful thoughts keep popping up, recalling the past and thinking about the future."
"There is a ball of painful light in my sister's heart. The more thoughts she has in her heart, the bigger the ball of painful light becomes, which increases the power of the light ball, and the more painful it becomes for my sister. The more painful it is, the more powerless my sister is."
People in pain feel that they are victims, that support is powerless, and that they are wallowing in the abyss of pain.
"Buddhists say liberation and enlightenment means an empty mind, no thoughts, peace and joy."
"Sister, let's eat fruit. Just eat fruit and don't think about anything else. Fruit is so sweet."
Nanzhi could only comfort Sister Chu with the words taught by her previous master.
No matter how good it is, I can make me cry even if I eat a piece of fruit.
Sister Chu is very stressed, thinks too much, is weak, and suffers from severe internal friction. She just wants to go, but does nothing or can't do anything.
If you have a problem, solve it. If you can't solve it, ask for help. If you can't solve it by asking for help, then just do whatever you want. You've already worked hard!
Miss Chu felt much better after crying. When she heard Nanzhi's words, she couldn't help but be surprised and said, "Who did you hear these words from?"
It's not like something a village girl could say.
Nanzhi: "A monk who performs rituals for the village."
Miss Chu's expression brightened, "Maybe I should go to the temple for a walk."
I really feel pain in my heart and want relief.
Nanzhi handed an orange to Miss Chu. Miss Chu waved her hand and said she didn't want to eat it. Nanzhi insisted and stuffed it into her hand, "Sister, have a taste. It's really delicious."
Miss Chu nodded, "Okay, I'll eat."
"I should have entertained you well, but I did this instead." Miss Chu apologized to Nanzhi.
Nanzhi shook his head, "Sister, don't be harsh on yourself, don't complain about yourself. Sister is very good. Sister, let's taste the fruit. It's really delicious. I may not be able to come to my sister's house in the future. Don't you think it's precious now? ?”
Miss Chu nodded, "Okay, sister, I won't say anything anymore."
Miss Chu tasted the fruit carefully and tasted something special. The maids looked at each other. The young lady had a very small appetite and could not eat anything. With this girl by her side, she actually ate a few fruits, which was better than usual. That’s a lot.
Seeing that the time was almost up, Nanzhi said goodbye to Miss Chu. Miss Chu sent Nanzhi out the door, "Come over and play when you have time. I'll send my maid to find you."
Nanzhi nodded, "Okay, okay, thank you sister for the fruit. I will go back and feed it to my father and brother."
Miss Chu hummed and sent a carriage to take Nanzhi back.
Boss Shen's eyes almost popped out of his head when he saw Nanzhi coming back in a carriage. He had never been in such a luxurious carriage in his life, let alone a carriage. He had never even touched a horse.
Nanzhi gave the fruit to Shen Jiawen and Boss Shen, saying it was from Sister Chu.
Shen Jiawen ate a few. In ancient times, it was rare to eat fruit, but it made Shen Jiawen feel addicted.
Even while eating, Shen Jiawen couldn't help but ask, "How did you get along with Miss Chu?"
Nanzhi said: "Don't worry about girls' affairs."
Shen Jiawen: Okay!
The imperial examination is not only a waste of your brain and hair, but also a waste of your body. The exam lasts for several days. You eat, drink, and defecate in a small shed, and you can't even stretch your back. It's really a test.
Candidates with a bad mentality will collapse immediately.
Many people left the examination room looking like wandering souls or zombies walking around.
Qingfeng Building deserves to be a top-notch inn. Bath water was boiled for the students who had finished their exams early in the morning. The doctor had been invited early and was waiting for the students to check their health.
The exam environment is harsh, and some scholars are not in good health. It is very likely that they will catch wind and cold. Wind and cold can take away a life in ancient times.
But for the fairness of the examination, the door will never be opened during the examination, and people will die in the examination booth.
Especially when it's freezing cold.
Studying is so hard, and you worked so hard to become an official, but you can't make some money to make up for your previous hard work.
Nanzhi and Boss Shen came to pick up Shen Jiawen and borrowed the carriage from the inn. When Shen Jiawen came out, his face was pale and pale, and his face was visibly ugly.
Boss Shen was very distressed. His son's health was not good, and if he was tortured like this again, he didn't know if it would hurt him.
Boss Shen really wanted to say, we won’t take the exam, and we won’t take the exam in the future.
But Boss Shen couldn't say this. She knew better than anyone how hard her son worked hard to study.
Nanzhi immediately touched Shen Jiawen's forehead, feeling a little warm, and immediately asked Boss Shen to put clothes on him.
After getting on the carriage, I felt Shen Jiawen's pulse. Shen Jiawen had a slight odor and had not cleaned himself up for several days.
After returning to the inn to rest, he had a fever at night. Even though Shen Jiawen had a strong heart, his body just couldn't bear it.
Nanzhi kept watch all night, changing his handkerchief for him. He fell into the water before, but now he managed to make Shen Jiawen sick.
The doctor can prescribe medicine for Shen Jiawen, but there is no doctor who is always watching behind him. Boss Shen is a little lucky that Xiang Zhu came with him, otherwise he would be so panicked.
Especially seeing Xiangzhu's orderly appearance, Boss Shen felt guilty and felt that he was not as calm as his child.
Looking at Shen Jiawen's burning face, Boss Shen's hands were shaking.
Nanzhi asked Boss Shen to wipe Shen Jiawen's body, and then went out to buy better wine, wine with higher purity, but such wine was called fairy wine and was extremely expensive.
Nanzhi gritted his teeth and bought it, but there was always a voice in his heart, let him die, let him die!
The monster that occupies Shen Jiawen's body.
Nanzhi told the truth to the voice in her heart, "Your Shen Jiawen is dead. This Shen Jiawen takes responsibility for your Shen Jiawen. I know that you and Shen Jiawen have a good relationship, but you are very sad."
Let's not talk about Shen Jiawen's feelings towards the Shen family. Shen Jiawen has shouldered the responsibility he should bear.
He is not Shen Jiawen, not Shen Jiawen!
The voice in my heart said stubbornly.
Nanzhi didn't know what to say.
She touched her heart and went back with the wine jar, asking Boss Shen to wipe Shen Jiawen's creaky nest with wine.
