Since Shen Baozhu had been staying in the main courtyard for the past few days, Shen Heqing came to the main courtyard with her.
Shen Heqing still remembered what Huijue had said about the incompatibility. He pulled Shen Baozhu to sit on the stone bench in the main courtyard and asked, "Baozhu, have you been happy these days?"
"I'm very happy living with Mother. Every morning, I have beautiful clothes. Mother helped me choose them. They are super, super beautiful!" Shen Baozhu suddenly stood up and twirled around. "Do you think my clothes are nice?"
Shen Heqing smiled and said, "Did Mother choose these clothes for you? They are really nice."
Hearing her clothes being praised, Shen Baozhu was very happy. But after waiting for a long time, she didn't hear what Shen Heqing would say next. She urged, "Big brother, did you forget something? You haven't praised me yet!"
Shen Heqing's originally somewhat heavy mood was dispelled by her. He replied smoothly, "Okay, the clothes are nice, and Baozhu is even cuter."
Shen Baozhu then told some daily interesting things. She also put the disassembled Luban Lock on the table and posed in a very imposing manner, holding her head high. "Am I very amazing, Baozhu?"
But in Shen Heqing's eyes, she looked more like a cute little rabbit. He laughed and said, "Yes, yes, yes. Baozhu is the most amazing. Then do you know how to assemble it? Big brother will teach you..."
Normally, Shen Heqing lived in the school and rarely had the chance to play with his sister. He cherished this opportunity very much as he happened to have some free time today.
Bai Zhi brought the pastries up. Looking at Shen Heqing, who knew nothing about the changes in the family, she thought for a while but still couldn't hold back and said, "Young master, the little princess has suffered a lot these days. The princess has investigated for a long time..."
During Bai Zhi's narration, Shen Heqing's face changed slightly. He didn't expect such a big thing to happen in the family and no one had informed him. Even Shen Danqing knew about it, but he was the only one left out.
At the same time, Shen Heqing was also a bit dissatisfied with Shen Yunfeng. He knew that Baozhu had had an accident these days but still wanted to send her away. He was simply unworthy of being a father!
Vaguely, Shen Heqing began to doubt Shen Yunfeng's image as a father in his heart.
Noticing that Shen Heqing was in a bad mood, Shen Baozhu ate the pastries quietly without making a sound.
Shen Heqing quickly adjusted his mood. He pulled Shen Baozhu to his side and rubbed her soft little face. "But Baozhu, you are so partial. Big brother and second brother are both your brothers. You only called Danqing back to accompany you. Have you ever thought about me? You little heartless one. Big brother misses you every day in the school!"
Shen Baozhu was rubbed so that she couldn't speak clearly. "Um um um, no. I didn't call second brother back..."
"You still want to lie to me? If you didn't call Danqing, why would he come back from the school for no reason?" Shen Heqing said reasonably. He had always thought that Shen Baozhu liked Shen Danqing more, and now he finally had the evidence.
"Baozhu, big brother can accept that you like second brother more, but you can't treat big brother like a fool."
Shen Baozhu felt that she was being slandered. She widened her eyes and tried to explain. "It's not like that! Second brother came home a long time ago. He came back with father!"
"When I woke up from the bed, I went to find mother. At that time, second brother was already in Concubine Yun's courtyard."
The little girl recalled the situation at that time and tried to describe it all. But Shen Heqing's tone was sour. "Why are you lying to me? Father has always disliked Danqing. How could they be together?"
Seeing that Shen Heqing didn't believe her, Shen Baozhu became even more anxious. She looked at Bai Zhi beside her for help. "They were really together. Not only did I see them, but everyone else did too!"
Bai Zhi nodded in agreement. "Yes, the marquis was standing with the second young master. The other day, I heard the maids in the small kitchen saying that it was the marquis who brought the second young master back."
This was just said casually, but Shen Heqing thought too much.
Previously, Shen Yunfeng disliked Shen Danqing and liked Shen Baozhu. Now it could be the other way around. If he couldn't resist the sweet talk of that monk and really sent Baozhu away, what should he do?
Shen Heqing's dissatisfaction with Shen Yunfeng gradually deepened.
The effect of the spices in the front yard gradually wore off, and Shen Heqing began to feel unwell. He lay on the stone table for a long time until Zi Wan brought Doctor Liu over.
Doctor Liu was shocked by Shen Heqing's listless appearance. He couldn't help but sigh, "What kind of person has the princess's mansion offended? Why are people getting sick one after another!"
After examining Shen Heqing through looking, listening, asking, and feeling the pulse, Doctor Liu looked at him with a worried face. From the symptoms, it seemed like he was poisoned, but his pulse was normal. He was just a bit short of qi. He didn't dare to make a hasty conclusion.
Shen Baozhu asked with concern, "Uncle Liu, is big brother okay?"
Looking down into Shen Baozhu's clear eyes, Doctor Liu thought for a long time and only said, "Maybe he is just too tired. Let him rest more. I'll go back and get some medicine to replenish qi and blood for him. Maybe he will feel better."
"Later, Miss Zi Wan will go with me to get the medicine. Baozhu, will you supervise the young master to take the medicine, okay?"
Worried about her big brother, Shen Baozhu nodded hard. "Okay! I will definitely supervise big brother to take the medicine!"
Since Doctor Liu couldn't diagnose the exact cause of Shen Heqing's illness, he felt a bit guilty. He led Zi Wan back to get the medicine.
Shen Heqing shook his head. There were double images in his vision again, and his mind was muddled. Even his speech was a bit slurred. "Bao, Baozhu, help me go to the east wing to lie down for a while..."
After helping her big brother to the east wing with Bai Zhi, Shen Baozhu was extremely tired. She sat on the edge of the bed listlessly. "Alas, it would be great if the real person was here today."
Yesterday, the real person Qingyun had informed Shen Baozhu in advance that he had to go and deal with a monster and would be back in three days.
Just as Shen Baozhu was worrying about her big brother's health, subtitles appeared in the air again. But this time, the subtitles were a bit different.
The words on the subtitles were all incomplete and looked very simple.
[Hello? What a cute little girl.]
[The hair accessory on your head is a bit similar to the hair accessories in ancient times. Can I have a link?]
Link...
Shen Baozhu tilted her head and didn't quite understand the meaning of this word. "What is a link?"
[Where did you buy this hair accessory? I want to buy one to study.]
"Does the immortal want my little rabbit hairpin? Then I'll give it to the immortal. I have a lot of them." As soon as Shen Baozhu finished speaking, the hairpin on her head disappeared.
After a while, the subtitles were updated again.
[It's so amazing. Which interstellar express service is this? It can deliver in one second.]
At this time, Shen Baozhu also found that the person sending the subtitles today was not the real person Qingyun. She asked curiously, "You're not the real person. Who are you?"
[I'm a scientist from the Interstellar Alliance. You can call me Lin Yu. Thank you for the hairpin. Is there anything I can do for you?]
Shen Baozhu also introduced herself in a proper manner. "I'm Shen Baozhu. You can call me Baozhu."
"Brother Lin Yu, big brother has a dizzy head because he has been studying too hard. Is there any way to make him feel better?"
