Chapter 503: Bend under pressure 7
Of course, the old marquis thought that Sun Jianxing just suffered from a relatively severe case of typhoid fever. The illness had come and gone again and again, and it had not fully recovered for more than twenty days.
"Your body and bones were pretty good before, and you didn't get sick very often. How come you're so bad this time?"
The old Marquis and his wife were very suspicious. It had been more than a month since their grandfather and grandson came to Kyoto City.
Speaking of diseases caused by acclimatization, is it too late for the disease to occur?
"Grandma, there's no need to worry. In fact, my grandson's health is almost better. Maybe because of this illness, he's a little lazy and doesn't like to get up."
Just as Xia Chiwan expected, Sun Jianxing wished that what happened in the ruined temple had never been discovered.
Not to mention letting him mention this matter himself, he wished he had completely forgotten about it.
Therefore, how could Sun Jianxing mention the fact that he was suppressed by a beggar or other beggars in front of the old Marquis and his wife?
"If grandma doesn't believe it, my grandson will go to the garden with grandma now?"
Sun Jianxing said this not to comfort Mrs. Houye, but to dispel Mrs. Hou's suspicion.
Could Sun Jianxing not know how smart the old Marquis’ wife is?
But he must not let Mrs. Hou Ye know about this, so he can only work hard to prove that his "illness" is almost cured.
"That's fine. Lying down too much will make you lazier. Let's go for a walk with grandma."
Mrs. Lao Houye would not resist, because she wanted to know what happened to Sun Jianxing's "illness".
Sun Jianxing accompanied the old Marquis and his wife for a leisurely stroll in the garden.
Of course, this is more suitable to describe Mrs. Hou Ye. Sun Jianxing was still a little uncomfortable after all.
Madam Lao Houye saw that Sun Jianxing was walking with her, and there was indeed no sign of reluctance, which made her feel relieved.
"By the way, where is the book boy next to you? I seem to have never seen him in the past few days."
Mrs. Lao Ye suddenly asked.
Sun Jianxing's heart froze. He had roughly guessed that Xia Boran knew what he was thinking about Xia Chiwan.
The truth about the temple destruction, even if you think about it, cannot escape Xia Boran's eyes.
"The book boy made a mistake, so he was dealt with by the prime minister's uncle. It bothers my grandma to worry about it. That servant really deserves to die."
"Oh, your uncle and prime minister handled it personally?"
Madam Lao Houye's eyes flashed, her brows furrowed, and then she regained her composure.
"Indeed, the book boy bumped into Uncle Xiangye. He was just a slave anyway, and it is impossible for my grandson to offend Uncle Xiangye because of a slave."
After thinking for a while, Sun Jianxing added another sentence.
"Actually, grandma, there's no need to worry. Uncle Xiangye has already said that finding a better boy to be my book boy will be considered as compensation for my grandson."
Sun Jianxing, this is not a lie.
After Xia Boran dealt with Sun Jianxing's bookboy, he indeed said that he would compensate Sun Jianxing for having a bookboy.
Coincidentally, Sun Jianxing only mentioned this topic to Mrs. Hou, and the housekeeper led the five teenagers towards Mrs. Hou and his grandson.
"See the old Marquis' wife, see the young Marquis."
When the housekeeper saw the two grandmothers, he quickly bowed and greeted the two masters one by one, which was very polite.
