Jia Baobao saw that he was in a difficult situation and immediately said, "Forget it, forget it. Brother-in-law, you should tell me more about the Jianghu!"
The System said, "Are you trying to calculate if you'll die soon?"
Jia Baobao ignored the System and stared at Li Wan intently.
Li Wan laughed heartily and looked grateful, "If Brother Bao likes it, I'll come and talk to you more often. Ever since your sister passed away, I've been too lazy to come out and walk around, so I've never talked to you about these things."
"Now that I think about it, it's just a cup of wine in the spring breeze, a decade of rain in the Jianghu …" Li Wan looked out of the window and fell into deep thought.
Qing Wen became even more nervous.
Li Wan turned around and smiled, "You can also come to my garden often and talk to your nephew. He's always liked you as his uncle."
"It's because I've been restraining him recently that he didn't come to see you. Otherwise, he would've come to your house to play."
Li Wan was slightly older and had experienced many things. His expression was always calm, mature, and gentle.
He looked at Jia Baobao and whispered, "I always feel that the world is going to change soon. Brother Bao, you should also prepare early and study hard, so that you can make a name for yourself."
Jia Baobao's mind moved.
The System could not help but say, "Your brother-in-law must've heard something."
Jia Baobao quickly said, "I will. Thank you for the reminder, brother-in-law."
Li Wan looked at her expectantly, "I've always hoped to have a smart and sensible brother like you."
The System said, "Unfortunately, you're the younger sister!"
Jia Baobao smiled, the corners of her eyes slightly red, and she called out loudly, "Brother Wan."
Li Wan blinked his starry eyes and smiled in response, "Yes."
"When you're better, I'll let Lan Ger come and accompany you. You can also watch him study."
Jia Baobao looked ashamed. She scratched her nose and said, "Well … Lan Ger's studies are better than mine."
Li Wan gazed at her with a smile. Nothing needed to be said.
Jia Baobao suddenly understood that Li Wan didn't mean for her to watch Lan Ger study, but for Lan Ger to help her study.
Really … What did she do to make Brother-in-law spend so much effort on her?
Jia Baobao's eyes glistened. "Thank you."
Li Wan smiled and said calmly, "I should be the one thanking you. From time to time, you'll send Lan Ger some things. This … I understand."
When he smiled, he was like a soft sword in autumn water, sharp and tender.
No, that's not it. Brother-in-law, what do you understand? At that time, I was testing the Daily Mission, so I gave a lot of things to the Jia Lan!
Jia Baobao struggled to get up.
Li Wan reached out a big hand and pressed her back into the quilt.
"You don't have to send me off."
Jia Baobao continued to struggle, but her hand accidentally touched his big palm.
It was full of stiff calluses.
Jia Baobao was stunned.
He quickly retracted his hand. "Don't hurt yourself. My hand is not as good as those noblemen's …"
Jia Baobao reached out her hand and held it again.
She comforted him gently, "Brother Wan is very powerful. Only those who can endure hardships can enjoy the good times."
Li Wan's eyes were smiling, and his eyebrows relaxed. "Brother Bao, a person can't not work hard for a day. Otherwise, they will forget what they have learned."
Jia Baobao trembled and slowly raised her head.
"System, does he mean that he's still practicing his Killing Sword Technique every day?"
"Shh, don't disturb me."
"What are you doing?"
"I'm reading." The System read dryly, "That night, my husband's younger brother pushed me onto the bed and said to me, 'Sister-in-law, your hand is so nice to touch'."
Jia Baobao was speechless.
Li Wan slowly retracted his hand and left the room.
Qing Wen whispered, "Baoyu, you shouldn't have let him in. After all … After all … Although in the eyes of outsiders, you two are brother-in-law and sister-in-law, but in reality, you two are brother-in-law and sister-in-law."
In the eyes of the System, Li Wan and him were still the beautiful widow and the romantic brother-in-law?
The System said, "Tsk tsk, the noble circle is really messy."
Jia Baobao covered his face and said to both of them at the same time, "You think too much."
Qing Wen said, "Baoyu, you are too naive!"
The System said, "Tsk tsk."
At noon, Jia Baobao, who was taking an afternoon nap, was woken up by a quarrel.
She rested her cheek on her hand and looked outside with sleepy eyes. She asked softly, "What's going on?"
She Yue was embroidering when she heard the noise, "Did they wake Bao Erye up? Qing Wen has already gone out to check. "
As they were talking, Qing Wen opened the curtain and came in with a proud smile on her face.
Qing Wen saw that Bao Erye was awake and immediately came over with a smile, "Guess what happened?"
Jia Baobao was confused.
"Concubine Zhao is making a fuss. She said that Imperial Physician Hu was a quack and accused Madam of deliberately torturing the concubine's son."
Jia Baobao sighed, "And then?"
"Because she made a big fuss, the Elder Ancestor sent people to take her back."
Jia Baobao said slowly, "Madam went overboard."
Qing Wen squatted by the bed and rubbed her legs. She said with a smile, "It's all because of them. They are bullying us because we don't have enough people!"
Qing Wen rolled her eyes and said, "You are so kind. You are still worried about them. They have already boarded the ship."
"Oh?"
"When Concubine Zhao came out, she was pulled away by Madam Xing. I don't know what she wanted to say to her."
Madam Xing was Jia Xie's wife and was the first wife of the hereditary nobility in Rongguo Province. However, because the Lady Jia favored the second wife, Jia Zheng, their family did not have much say in the residence.
Jia Baobao complained to the System, "Look at this mess. Sooner or later, they will all be finished!"
"Actually, this is not the only thing that is making a fuss outside."
"There's more?"
Qing Wen moved forward and rubbed Jia Baobao's temples with her slender fingers. Her fingernails were long and were dyed with bright impatiens flower juice. When she rubbed Jia Baobao's temples, her fingernails made Jia Baobao's face look even more beautiful.
Their family's Bao Erye was really good-looking.
Qing Wen was lost in her thoughts. When she saw Jia Baobao looking at her, she immediately gathered her thoughts and said, "Yes, something seems to have happened to Grandpa Jane in Ningguo Province."
"What happened?" Jia Baobao's eyes widened in curiosity.
Qing Wen bit her lips and had a strange expression. "It seems like … a ghost."
"Grandpa Jane went crazy after she woke up after falling into the water. She doesn't have the face to look at anyone. She is very scared now. Even after taking a few sedatives, it didn't work."
Jia Baobao blinked.
The System said, "It's your fault again, isn't it?"
Jia Baobao smiled embarrassedly at the System.
The System said, "… Damn it! Don't use your beauty to confuse me! "
"Then, when the old master in Ningguo Province heard about this, he said that Grandpa Jane's heart was not at peace. He asked her to stay in the temple for a few days to recite scriptures and refine pills with him," Qing Wen continued.
"What pill refining? She's going to find someone to test her medicine, right?" Jia Baobao complained softly.
As they were talking, Lady Wang sent Jin Chuan over again.
She Yue held Jin Chuan's hand and said affectionately, "Sister Jin Chuan is here again. But what does Madam want to say to Baoyu?"
Jin Chuan's limpid eyes glanced at Jia Baobao and said softly, "Old Master was persuaded by Concubine Zhao again and is furious. Madam stopped him and asked Bao Erye to send Grandpa Jane to Xuan Zhen Temple and stay there for a day. When Master Lin comes tomorrow, Old Master's anger will naturally dissipate. You can come back then."
Jia Baobao was speechless for a moment. He pointed at himself and said, "What does this have to do with me? Is Old Master venting his anger on me again? "
Her cheeks were puffed up in anger and her finger was poking it.
Jin Chuan blushed and looked around. "Don't be angry … Do you have rose dew? Quickly give some to Bao Erye to calm down."
She Yue saw her bashful look and teased, "What's there to drink? The Yan Zhi on your mouth is made of rose dew. Have you forgotten?"
Jia Baobao was still angry. "If Old Master is so soft-hearted and angry, be careful that you don't get angry …"
Before she finished speaking, she suddenly felt hot in between her eyebrows.
Jin Chuan covered her mouth and stepped back with a smile. "Is Erye still angry?"
How could Jia Baobao be angry when he was coaxed by the ladies?
Jia Baobao gazed at her with a smile. His eyes were glistening like peach blossoms wet by the spring rain.
Jin Chuan touched her red face and said in a low voice, "Then I'll leave first. Bao Erye should get moving too."
Jia Baobao nodded and smiled at her. When he turned around, he saw Qing Wen staring at him.
She wanted to say something, but Qing Wen ran away in anger.
Jia Baobao took out a box of medicine from the box and said to She Yue, "Give this to Jia Huan."
She Yue widened her eyes and said in distress, "These are good medicine that cost dozens of silvers!"
Jia Baobao smiled. "It's nothing. Just give it to her."
She Yue hugged the medicine box and her heart softened.
Bao Erye was indeed the kindest person in the world. Those who slandered Bao Erye were all blind bastards!
The System said, "What kind of bewitching potion did you feed them?"
Jia Baobao said with a serious face, "Because their faces are good."
The System was speechless.
It couldn't refute.
Jia Baobao packed his things and was about to board the carriage when he heard the footboy chatting with Xiren and Li Gui.
"… Master was still angry just now. He went to the tree and kicked it hard. Who would've thought! A big hornet's nest fell from the tree. "
The footboy gestured a shape the size of a watermelon with his hands. "All the hornets flew out and stung Master's face!"
Jia Baobao was speechless.
She found a small western mirror and looked at her face. The Yan Zhi on her eyelids disappeared.
Wasn't this dream coming true a little too fast?
"Strange. Why did the Yan Zhi disappear, but the things in my eyes didn't change?"
As soon as she finished speaking, her world returned to normal.
