Chapter 87 Because I am Shen Yunchu

Between words, the two dared not make up their minds again.

Shen Yunchu was silent, Lin Xiru turned her head and looked at Gao Zhiyi who was beside her, "Don't Miss Gao think this is rice wine?"

Gao Zhiyi lowered his eyes, not flustered, but said in a flat tone: "Forgive me for being stupid, I don't know how to taste wine, but I think it doesn't matter what kind of wine it is, what matters is who you drink it with."

"Alcohol is just a foil. What the heart wants may not necessarily be what the words say. Words can deceive people, but hearts and actions cannot deceive people."

"The courtier thinks that no matter how beautiful the words are, no matter how glamorous they are, they are all just talk on paper. As the saying goes, people's hearts can be seen over time, and this statement is not unreasonable."

Taking retreat as advance, sophistry in terms of the injustice itself, obviously from the way Lin Xiru looked at her, she was quite satisfied with Gao Zhiyi's answer.

But she was not in a hurry to come to a conclusion, but she turned her eyes and turned her eyes to Shen Yunchu again. The two looked at each other, but Shen Yunchu frowned. After thinking for a long time, she said: "My lord, I beg your pardon."

As soon as this remark came out, the smile in Lin Xiru's eyes gradually disappeared, and Gao Zhiyi didn't quite understand the meaning of Shen Yunchu's rebuttal.

After another long silence, Shen Yunchu continued, "My lord, whether it is rice wine or fruit wine, there is nothing wrong with it, but the significance lies in that they have different appearances, different workmanship, and similar taste, but no one can be used as a substitute for another."

"In my opinion, the concept should not be blurred. Just like people, each performs his own duties and does his own work. If someone pretends to be a fake and pretends to be the real one, if things go on like this, what truth can there be in this world?"

After saying that, the surroundings were strangely quiet, Lin Xiru's eyes were deep, she knew that both Shen Yunchu and Gao Zhiyi could hear the meaning behind her words.

But the answers of the two people were completely different. What surprised Lin Xiru was that Gao Zhiyi, who was rumored to be decisive enough to sever ties with the Gao family, and who came out of his own family with his swept-off mother, chose the most ambiguous answer on this matter.

On the other hand, Shen Yunchu, who had always been docile and obedient, and looked like the younger sister of the Lin family in everyone's eyes, gave the most upright answer. For a moment, Lin Xiru didn't know whether to be happy or sad.

During the tense waiting, before Lin Xiru could speak, Shen Yunchu heard Gao Zhiyi's inner voice first.

She said: "This sister is invincible, okay, how dare you be tough?"

Shen Yunchu lowered his eyes, feeling a little lost in his heart, and it was inevitable that he could see something in his expression.

I don't know how long it took before Lin Xiru sighed slowly, she turned her head and glanced at the flourishing sun, "Then let's stay here temporarily today, counting the time, Master Chen and the others should not be far away now, I will send someone to take you two there."

Looks like it's over.

Gao Zhiyi secretly breathed a sigh of relief, Shen Yunchu also raised his eyes, and glanced at Lin Xiru in some puzzlement, but saw that her expression was calm, without any emotion.

At this moment, it was the first time that Shen Yunchu wanted to read someone's mind so much, but unfortunately, the mind-reading ability he obtained by accident didn't work for Lin Xiru.

Sitting on the carriage going to the outskirts, neither of them spoke, only the sound of rumbling wheels could be heard.

"Hey," suddenly, Gao Zhiyi yelled at her, Shen Yunchu looked away indifferently, looked at her, did not speak, she asked, "You know that it was just a temptation, why did you have to refute her just now? Are you not afraid of her getting angry? Don't you want to be a teacher?"

When she asked this question, she was really puzzled. Shen Yunchu was not the kind of person who spoke and acted without thinking. Although the Shen family had a high status, she was not raised as a woman with big breasts and no brains.

But Lin Xiru is well-known throughout Sheng'an, and being able to worship under her sect can be described as the long-cherished wish of many women who yearn for a world in the officialdom.

She could tell that Shen Yunchu was thinking about it, but what she said at the time knew that Lin Xiru might be angered, but she still said it.

Shen Yunchu understood why Gao Zhiyi asked this question, she pondered for a while, and said, "I want to be a teacher, but I don't want the person I admire to be a person who doesn't know right from wrong, who doesn't know who is loyal and who is evil. Of course, if she really only talked about rice wine today, then it's because I'm narrow-minded. I don't have to rely on Mr. Lin to be a female officer."

As she said that, Shen Yunchu paused slightly, her eyes shifted slightly, and her eyes fell outside the window. The scenery outside flashed quickly, and she continued, "For me, apprenticeship may make it easier for me, and I will avoid many detours, but this does not mean that if I lose this qualification, I will never be able to be a female officer, it's just a matter of time."

Shen Yunchu turned his head, and once again met Gao Zhiyi's slightly surprised eyes, "The road is his own, how to walk, how to walk, how to walk, there is not only one way, because I am Shen Yunchu."

Looking at the entire Sheng'an City, the Shen family is not a vegetarian. If she wants to be a female official, the easiest and most direct way is not without it. It is not difficult to ask her father to go to Emperor Sheng'an to help her find an official position.

But she didn't want to do this, otherwise people would be offended, saying that her name did not match her reality, and that she, Shen Yunchu, was not a strong person, but one thing, since she decided to do it, she had to try her best to do her best.

Hearing Shen Yunchu's words, Gao Zhiyi's eyes sank, Shen Yunchu didn't say anything, until the carriage stopped in the suburbs, both of them were silent all the way.

Before getting out of the carriage, there was the sound of a girl playing outside, and the servant outside knocked on the door of the carriage, "Miss, we are here."

Shen Yunchu and Gao Zhiyi got off the carriage, not far ahead was a forest with a gurgling stream, the girls took off their shoes and socks, rolled up their sleeves, tied up their clothes and went into the water to play.

Before they approached, the girls laughing in the water saw them, and one of them stood in the water and waved at them, "Zhiyi! Susu! Come on!"

Gao Zhiyi smiled and waved at her in response, and was about to trot over, but seemed to remember something, turned to look at Shen Yunchu who was still in a hurry, "Aren't you going?"

Shen Yunchu shook her head, said nothing, and Gao Zhiyi didn't ask too many questions, just out of politeness, she ran over quickly, took off her shoes and socks, and got into the water.

The cold touch made him feel happy in an instant, and when he looked up, he saw Pei Xueyan sitting on the huge pebbles beside him, only soaking his feet in the water, his gaze fell on Shen Yunchu who was not far away.

Gao Zhiyi followed her gaze to look over, Shen Yunchu found a place in the shade of a tree, took out the book he brought, and carefully flipped through it.

Gao Zhiyi turned her head and looked at Pei Xueyan. Pei Xueyan didn't seem to notice it until Gao Zhiyi poured a puddle of water at her before she realized it and came back to her senses.

The eyes of the two met, Pei Xueyan was startled, and Gao Zhi said: "Tell me about her."

Hearing Gao Zhiyi's words, Pei Xueyan's expression was a bit surprised, but after pondering for a moment, she still said: "Actually, she is quite pitiful. When she was young, she had a serious illness. I heard that it alarmed the entire imperial hospital. General Shen also called many famous doctors from outside to save her life."

"But since then, she has been in poor health. On such a hot day, she can't play in the water casually. Too cold or too hot will make her seriously ill. Ordinary people have minor illnesses and pains, and they will be fine after a few days."

"She can't do it. No matter how minor an illness or injury is, it may kill her. The Shen family has always been extremely careful in this regard and dare not slack off."

After Pei Xueyan finished speaking, for some reason, Gao Zhiyi felt inexplicably uncomfortable. She always felt that there was something very strange about Shen Yunchu, a kind of tenacity that shouldn't belong to a person with her experience.
