Shen Wan's face was full of smiles, and his eyes were full of seriousness when looking at Shang Ji Sangwan.
Shen Wan really couldn't bear to whet the appetite of the little girl in front of him.
Shen Wan reached out and plucked off the petals that fell on Ji Sangwan's head. He closed the distance and his voice became much softer.
"Because your mother saved my life. I should sacrifice my life to repay my life-saving kindness. Your mother is gone, and I am protecting you for her. This is what you can do for your mother."
Ji Sangwan didn't understand how her mother could save Shen Wan's life. Shen Wang has a simple and innocent background, which is no secret in the court. Because he reached Shen Wang's position, he would inevitably be investigated in various ways.
Besides, the emperor seemed to trust Shen Juan very much and was willing to hand over such an important matter to Shen Juan. If he had an unclear background, he would not be able to achieve his current position.
Ji Sangwan shook her head. The memory of her childhood was blurry. She couldn't remember anything, and she couldn't figure out why her mother did this.
She simply didn't want to think about it anymore.
Although she was harmed by a close family member in her previous life, Ji Sangwan could still tell whether her feelings were genuine.
She simply stopped pursuing it and smiled lightly at Shen Wan.
"In this case, Mr. Shen has saved me from fire and water many times, which is also a life-saving grace. My mother left me a lot of gold and silver treasures, but I feel that Mr. Shen is not a greedy person.
How about I call you Brother Shen from now on and respect you as an elder brother. "
Liu Ruyan covered her mouth and chuckled.
"Just now I said you were a stubborn girl, but now you look smart."
Yes, if Ji Sangwan was too lazy to be an elder brother, he would still be able to take advantage of this situation.
She just thought of it and said it casually.
Ji Sangwan really couldn't think of anything he could give Shen Wan in return. Hearing that Shen Wan was alone, without a father or mother, and no one in the court dared to approach him, he always needed someone to talk to.
In Ji Sangwan's view, trust is the most valuable thing to her in this life.
Moreover, after she is reborn, she can also help Shen Wang to eliminate several major families earlier to avoid becoming a disaster.
"Am I trying to get ahead of myself?"
Seeing that Shen Wan didn't respond for a long time, Ji Sangwan became discouraged. A person as powerful as Shen Wan would be very powerful in the future even if he didn't have the knowledge like me. It was Ji Sangwan who was just being sentimental.
"No!"
Shen Wan pursed his lips.
"Just now, I was also thinking. I am hated by people in the court. In addition to your father and your useless fiancé, other major families also regard me as an enemy.
If I accept you as my adopted sister, wouldn't it push you into an abyss and make your situation even more difficult in the future? "
Ji Sangwan chuckled.
"Brother Shen is too worried. After I became independent, unity with those big families was the biggest stumbling block. Not only the Yong'an Marquis Mansion but also the Lu family will have a lot of troubles in the future.
It's just that they pride themselves on being noble, but the outside world is full of gold. If I don't step out, I can only become a puppet, and I don't want to.
In this case, it is better to stand with Brother Shen. I never think you are a bad person! "
Shen Wan nodded.
"Today is just that I, Shen Wang, have recognized you. It's just that you and I are busy with things at the moment. When we are done, I will definitely give you a grand recognition banquet!"
Ji Sangwan nodded, and Shen Wan didn't stay too long. He said he could still check on the coachman's affairs, so he left first.
However, Liu Ruyan said that she wanted to test Ji Sangwan and ask Ji Sangwan to see what happened to the old lady in the Hou Mansion. Ji Sangwan prepared a few doses of a very cheap medicine that could cure the disease, and was praised repeatedly by Liu Ruyan.
I believe Ji Sangwan will be able to check Princess Zhan's pulse soon.
…
Yun Fang found the most trustworthy person around him and let Ji Sangwan do whatever he wanted.
She only had two of Shen Wan's masters, so no one in the entire Hou Mansion would dare to embarrass her.
Thinking about it, Ji Sangwan came to the Hou Mansion with the herbs he caught yesterday.
Ji Sangwan had only been away for more than ten days, and he felt that the palace was in a state of depression. When the old housekeeper saw Ji Sangwan coming, he quickly went to report it.
Ji Sang later inquired and found out that the salary of Marquis Yong'an was not enough for the family to spend extravagantly. Nowadays, there have been conflicts among the families. Everyone wants better food and clothing, but there is only so much money.
Ji Sangwan's mother's dowry nourished this group of wastes, and now she still doesn't think about how to make money, but instead thinks about how to spend more money.
Therefore, her father has been having a hard time recently. The family members in the back house are incompetent, causing him the biggest headache.
Seeing Ji Sang come back late, these people all smiled.
They just noticed that there was nothing behind Ji Sangwan and frowned again.
"Sang Wan met my grandmother. My brother said that my grandmother was sick, so Sang Wan came here to visit."
This eldest aunt, Ji Shaocheng's mother, looked at Ji Sangwan with disgust.
"Sang Wan, the Marquis Mansion has taught you how to behave in the world since you were a child. You don't even know the rules, right? You moved out without permission with the Marquis Mansion's belongings, and now you come back empty-handed?
Doesn’t the old lady’s food and clothing cost money? Why do you think the old lady will get better just by seeing you? "
At this time, the eldest aunt spoke, and everyone responded.
Even his father Ji Yun, who was standing in the crowd, said: "Sang Wan, you must have had enough trouble now.
Your grandmother is angry because of you, you should stop.
I will send someone to move your things back today. Please stay with your grandmother more these days to prevent her condition from getting worse! "
Ji Sangwan raised his head and looked at the old lady.
She has been looking at medical skills in the past few days. After getting close to the old lady, she found out from the old lady's pulse that she was strong and had endless strength.
The current look of weakness is probably just a disguise.
When Ji Sangwan came here, he was afraid that the old lady was really sick. After all, she was old, but now she seemed to be overthinking it.
She understood everything clearly and looked at the old lady.
The old lady was still there with Wu Bing's figure, and she thought Ji Sangwan didn't understand anything as before.
"Grandma looks so bad. Nothing will happen. It's all Sang Wan's fault. Even if she is wronged, she shouldn't be so angry!"
The old lady forced herself to cough twice.
"Sang Wan, you are my favorite girl. Don't live outside. People will gossip about you. Ask your father to clean up for you and move back to grandma. Grandma will be fine!"
She held Ji Sangwan's hand, with uncontrollable disgust in her eyes, but on the surface, she was still very gentle.
This tenderness was something Ji Sangwan had never seen before.
"Sang Wan doesn't want to come back, and Sang Wan doesn't want to see his beloved brother's attention taken away from him, and he doesn't want to see you spending a lot of money on Ji Yunrou.
Grandma, do you know how uncomfortable I feel when I know that Ji Yunrou, a concubine, can wear expensive brocade and steal the spotlight from me at the spring banquet! "
Ji Sangwan's few words made the Ji Yunrou in front of him look like he was committing atrocious crimes.
Ji Yunrou looked at Ji Sangwan's eyes, which were full of resentment.
