Shen Yi stayed in Lu Anshi's study for almost half an hour. With his two lifetimes of experience, he had a pleasant chat with this old master.
And because Lu Anshi didn't have much contact with the previous Shen Yi, he didn't think there was anything wrong with the current Shen Yi who was a little too mature.
So, the two of them chatted until there was nothing left to talk about, and then Shen Yi said goodbye.
Master Lu personally sent Shen Yi to the door of the study. When he arrived at the door of the study, Shen Yi bowed to Master Lu and said, "Sir, this time the student was able to escape from the disaster. In addition to relying on Mr., it was also thanks to the kindness of the lady who went to the county government office to see him." Please give the student a visit, otherwise it will be difficult for the student to send a message from the prison. When Sir sees Miss, please convey your gratitude to the student."
When Shen Yi was in the prison that day, the reason why the jailer Zhou Sheng was willing to deliver the message for him was naturally because the Shen family gave him fifteen taels of money. It’s a must.
Moreover, Miss Lu also came to ask Mr. Lu to come to rescue Shen Yi afterwards, and she was also kind to Shen Yi.
Hearing this, Master Lu looked at Shen Yi and asked, "My daughter lives in the academy. You will go back to the academy to study after you recover from your injury. Why don't you thank her yourself?"
"If I have the chance to meet you, I will naturally thank you in person."
Shen Yi bowed his hands to Master Lu and said with a smile: "Sir, the student will go home to recuperate first. When the injury is healed, he will return to the academy to listen to the teacher's teachings."
Unknowingly, Shen Yi's address to Lu Anshi had changed from "mountain chief" to "sir".
Although a substantial master-disciple relationship has not yet been formed, the distance between the two people has been shortened a lot.
Lu Anshi stroked his beard, nodded and said: "After you go back, don't forget to study and warm up your knowledge. If you don't think about it for two or three days, you will start to forget it."
"yes."
Shen Yi bowed his head and saluted again, then turned and left.
Master Lu quietly watched Shen Yi's leaving figure. After Shen Yi left for a while, he put his hands behind his back, turned around and returned to his study room, sitting on his chair.
He looked at the white paper on his desk and wrote the word "睚禦" on the paper.
After writing these two words, Mr. Lu felt that something was not right, so he crossed out these two words and wrote the word "sophisticated" on the side.
"He is both smooth and sophisticated, but also a little vindictive. He has a somewhat contradictory temperament, but his young and mature mind is really rare..."
"I don't know whether he was born like this or whether he suddenly became enlightened after encountering a catastrophe. If it is the latter, it can be considered a blessing in disguise."
Speaking of this, Master Lu thought thoughtfully: "One day, if he really has the opportunity to express his resentment, he will be regarded as a figure in Jiangdu City."
The resentment in Shen Yi's heart comes not only from the Fan family and the Luo family and the Ma family, but also from the Jiangdu County government and even the Jiangdu government officialdom. If he finds an opportunity to avenge today's grudge, then Shen Qilang at that time will He is definitely not the Shen Qilang he is today.
"Do not know why…"
Master Lu put down his brush and said to himself: "I actually think he can do it..."
……………………
Because the injury on his body did not heal well, after returning home from Ganquan Academy, Shen Yi returned to his bed and lay down, quietly recuperating.
In the next six days, apart from reading some books collected at home, Shen Yi drank a bowl of the extremely bitter soup morning and night.
On the seventh day, Doctor Yan finally came to his home and changed his medicine. After taking his pulse, he prescribed another prescription.
At this time, most of the scabs on Shen Yi's back had scabbed over. Although they had not fallen off yet, they no longer felt any pain and did not affect his movements.
Doctor Yan took off the bandage for Shen Yi and simply covered it with a thin layer of cloth. After prescribing the medicine, he gave some instructions and then left with the medicine box.
According to Dr. Yan, Shen Yi's injury has recovered very well and there is no serious problem anymore. There is no need to drink the decoction to replenish qi and blood every day. Just drink a bowl every two days.
Shen Zhang was very happy and personally sent Doctor Yan away. After seeing Doctor Yan away, Shen Zhang happily took his son's hand and said with a smile: "My son's injury is healed. This disaster is over." .”
At this point, he sighed: "Dad will go and put some incense sticks on your mother's memorial tablet later, so that she won't worry about it underground."
"Son, you also go and offer incense to your mother. If you can escape safely, she must have done her best underground."
Shen Yi's mother passed away less than two years after giving birth to Shen Heng. In the following ten years, Shen Zhang worked hard to raise his two sons by himself, and did not renew their relationship for so many years.
"Um."
Shen Yi nodded and followed his father obediently. In front of his mother's shrine, he kissed his mother three sticks of incense and kowtowed a few more times to thank her for blessing her.
After finishing the incense, Shen Yi looked at his father and asked, "Dad, are you going back to the capital?"
Hearing Shen Yi's words, Shen Zhang was stunned, and then asked: "How did you know?"
"Guess."
Shen Yi smiled and said, "I see that you were a little anxious after receiving the letter yesterday. You asked Dr. Yan to come over to see your son early this morning. I guess you have something to do in the capital. .”
Shen Zhang nodded and said with a wry smile: "The letter was sent from the palace, urging my father to go back."
"I asked for leave at that time, only half a month's leave, and was delayed for two or three days on the road. In the blink of an eye, more than ten days have passed. I took care of some errands for my father in the palace, and was urged to go back to work."
Having said this, Shen Zhang looked at Shen Yi with a smile on his face: "My son is about to be well now, and my father can return to the capital with peace of mind."
Having said this, Shen Zhang groped in his arms for a while, then took out a small bag, handed it to Shen Yi's hand, and whispered: "Son, this is some money that dad has saved in the capital in the past two years. You can take it." Keep it with you for you and your little brother to eat."
"My father went to pay them back the fifteen taels owed by your third brother yesterday, but they didn't ask for it. Find an opportunity to pay them back."
When Shen Yi was in prison, he asked Shen Ling to give jailer Zhou Sheng fifteen taels of silver. At that time, Shen Ling gave him fifteen taels without saying a word. Shen Yi wrote down all these accounts and then told his father.
After all, brothers have to settle accounts openly, otherwise the relationship will be ruined.
However, a few years ago, when Shen Yi was young, most of the money Shen Zhang sent back was sent to Shen Ling, who took care of Shen Yi's brothers. Shen Zhang's money in Shen Ling was more than fifteen taels. Now Shen Zhang has to pay back this Fifteen taels of money, which means that the money that was deposited with Shen Ling before will not count. It is regarded as a thank you to the couple for rescuing Shen Yi this time.
Shen Yi took the money bag, opened it and looked at it. It was not filled with white money, but... a hint of gold.
Seeing this golden light, Shen Yi raised his head and glanced at his father.
It seems... Dad made a lot of money in that palace.
He put the money bag away in his sleeves and grinned at his father.
"Don't worry, Dad, my son has remembered everything."
…
There were probably a lot of things to do in the capital, so Shen Zhang didn't even wait until the next day, but waited until the afternoon before packing up and leaving.
At this time, Shen Heng was still in private school, so Shen Ling and his wife, together with Shen Yi, sent Shen Zhang out of the city. The three of them stood at the gate of the city, watching Shen Zhang leave.
After Shen Zhang's carriage was far away, Shen Ling sighed and said, "Fourth uncle has been alone in the capital these past few years without anyone around him. It has been hard."
Shen Yi smiled and said: "Then the third brother is looking for a suitable wife for my father in Jiangdu City, so that he can renew his string?"
Hearing Shen Yi's words, Shen Ling was a little surprised. He looked back at Shen Yi and smiled hoarsely: "After this disaster, Lao Qi, you have a much more cheerful personality and you can tell jokes."
Shen Yi smiled slightly but did not respond.
The three people stood at the gate of the city for a while, then took a carriage home. Sitting in the carriage, Shen Qilang lowered his head and thought for a while, then suddenly looked up at Shen Ling and asked: "Brother, what kind of business does our Ma family in Jiangdu make a fortune?" of?"
"Ma family?"
Shen Ling asked: "Which Ma family?"
Shen Qilang smiled and said: "Of course it's the very rich Ma family."
"oh."
Shen Ling finally understood and replied without thinking: "The Ma family used to sell grain. In recent years, it seems that they have also started selling some wood and medicinal materials."
He looked at Shen Yi and asked, "Why is Qi Lang asking these questions?"
