Happy Spring Every Year

Chapter 181 Yu Rujun

General Dingguo’s Mansion, Chunhua Courtyard.

"Jia Sui, what's going on?"

Zhao Huaizhen looked thinner these days, with a pointed chin. Now he was holding Shen Jiansui's hand with a bewildered look on his face.

When the news of Ning'er's marriage to the young master of the Ji family reached Prince Rong's mansion, she was shocked.

She originally wanted to ask Ning'er directly, but when she thought that Ning'er was now in the palace, she didn't want to go anymore, so she went to General Dingguo's Mansion instead.

Shen Jiasui knew that the time was ripe, so he immediately pulled Zhao Huaizhen to sit down, first solemnly apologized to her, and then told her the whole story from the bottom of his heart.

Naturally, there is no need to mention the private affairs between Mr. Lin and Concubine Rong.

When Zhao Huaizhen heard this, his mouth opened slightly, his face full of shock.

Shen Jiasui couldn't hide her uneasiness. After all, Huai Zhen had been running around and worrying about her and Ning'er for some time.

Thinking of this, Shen Jiasui said cautiously: "Huaizhen, even if you are angry with me and Ning'er, you deserve it. I——"

At this time, Zhao Huaizhen finally raised his head, tears flashing in his eyes, and said in a trembling voice: "Jia Sui, that's great, I'm not angry, I'm very happy."

"I'm not a child, so how could I not know what expediency means and what is a last resort? Hearing you say that, I can't help but feel happy."

"If that's the case, the three of us will always be good sisters and can always be together!"

Shen Jiasui was stunned for a moment when he heard this, but then his eyes were filled with emotion.

Huaizhen is truly an extremely pure person. I am so lucky to have Huaizhen as my friend.

At this time, Zhao Huaizhen shed more tears, "There is another layer, Jiasui, now I just hope that you and Lord Jiang can get as many helpers as possible, so that the chances of winning will be greater..."

"After my brother went to the imperial mausoleum, Mother had to put on a brave face in front of outsiders. Thunder, lightning, rain, and dew are all grace from the Emperor. We have received 'grace' and should be grateful."

"But Mother is secretly crying her eyes out. Jiasui, I am heartbroken. I just hope that day will come soon so that my family can be reunited in Prince Rong's mansion."

As Zhao Huaizhen spoke, he let out a soft sob and leaned on Shen Jiansui's shoulder.

Shen Jiasui's eyes were filled with heartache. He hugged her and comforted her softly.

After a long time, Zhao Huaizhen finally calmed down.

Shen Jiasui personally wrung out the handkerchief and wiped her face. Zhao Huaizhen let out a long breath and couldn't help asking:

"Jia Sui, have you set a date for your wedding?"

Shen Jiasui shook his head, then nodded and said, "Not that soon, but my mother told me it will be around August, and we can choose an auspicious day when we ask for the date."

Zhao Huaizhen finally smiled upon hearing this, with anticipation in his eyes. "Great! Then Ning'er and I will be your bridesmaids!"

Shen Jiasui couldn't help but smile, "Two princesses are my bridesmaids? Then I won't be polite. I want all the girls in the capital to envy me!"

The two of them started joking as they talked, and laughter came from the house. The maid next to Zhao Huaizhen finally breathed a sigh of relief.

........

After seeing Zhao Huaizhen off, Shen Jiaheng came back by coincidence, with Jiang Xun beside him.

Shen Jiasui was surprised, "Axun, why are you here?"

Jiang Xun touched his nose, still a little embarrassed, but in the slightly complacent look of Shen Jiaheng, he still said frankly:

"I was doing something outside, and on my way back I thought of taking a detour this way, and Jiaheng happened to see me."

Shen Jiaheng: “….”

Is that called taking a detour?

That's called wandering outside the mansion for a long time!

Shen Jiaheng did not expose Jiang Xun's intention. After all, he was getting the upper hand and was living a prosperous life in the Imperial College.

This change of thought reminded him of Lu Yunsheng mentioned by Ji Xueyi.

Shen Jiaheng was a man who couldn't keep secrets, so he asked immediately.

When Shen Jiasui heard about this for the first time, he was a little surprised, but he also knew Jiang Xun's character, so he didn't say anything to ask Jiang Xun to take care of Lu Yunsheng.

According to Aunt Zhou, Lu Yunsheng is a promising man. His future may be difficult, but he will climb up step by step.

Unexpectedly, at this moment, Jiang Xun shook his head and said with a smile: "It wasn't Master Lu who came looking for me, but I was looking for him."

When these words were spoken, Shen Jiasui and his sister were all surprised.

Jiang Xun then explained, "I've gotten to know Second Young Master Lu well. He has a steady temperament and good character. What's most remarkable is that he's neither arrogant nor impatient, and is quick to speak but quick to act."

"So I asked him to do something for me, and he gladly agreed and did it very well."

When Shen Jiaheng heard this, he couldn't help but feel ashamed. After all, he was a lively person.

Shen Jiasui looked at Jiang Xun with bright eyes, and understood his good intentions.

Ah Xun has plenty of people under his command, so wouldn't it be better to find someone he knows well to do the job? Why bother to go through the trouble of understanding and investigating Lu Yunsheng before even approaching him?

It was simply because he had heard about her interactions with Aunt Zhou and knew that she admired Aunt Zhou very much and that Aunt Zhou had done her a favor, so he was repaying her kindness.

As soon as Jiang Xun saw Shen Jiansui's expression, he knew that his thoughts had been guessed.

At this time, Shen Jiaheng couldn't help but be curious: "Brother Jiang, what do you want Lu Yunsheng to help you with?"

Speaking of this, Jiang Xun's expression straightened up.

"No one outside of this knows about this, so Jiaheng shouldn't make it known to others."

"Most of the students in the Imperial College are tribute students. They have gone through layers of selection before they can enter the capital. In fact, only a few of them come from wealthy families."

"Although the Imperial College provides students with basic food and housing, they still need money to buy books, writing brushes, and daily necessities."

"I've received many gifts over the years, but my expenses haven't been very high. I'm quite well-off, so I've set up a scholarship fund to help students in financial difficulties."

"The library provides scholarships and can also help connect students with small jobs like copying books and teaching in bookshops."

"Dongfeng has been helping me with this before, but the students who come to the scholarship center are of varying quality. Some even use the scholarship money to squander it."

"So I found Lu Yunsheng and asked him to help me check it. Of course, I also had to pay him."

When Jiang Xun said this, Shen Jiaheng's mouth opened wide.

"Brother Jiang, it turns out you are the one behind that financial aid center?"

Shen Jiaheng was shocked and excited. He held Shen Jiasui's hand and whispered:

"Sister, I've heard about this a long time ago. There's a kind-hearted person helping poor students in the Imperial College!"

"Everyone guessed that he might be a wealthy old man with too much money to spend, and he came here to do some charity."

"Originally, many people said he was just seeking fame and reputation, but so many years have passed, and that great man has never shown his face, and no one knows his identity."

"Some of the tribute students he sponsored have become officials in the imperial court, and no one has ever come to him to ask for repayment!"

"Oh my god, it turns out that this person has always been you, Brother Jiang!"

Shen Jiaheng's eyes were filled with amazement. He couldn't imagine how much of a stir this would cause if the tribute students who already admired Brother Jiang got to know about this news.

Jiang Xun waved his hands repeatedly and warned, "Jiaheng, don't tell anyone. If others find out, your good intentions will turn into bad intentions."

Shen Jiaheng changed his mind after hearing this. If this matter really spread, given Brother Jiang's situation, he would probably be accused of seeking fame and fortune and trying to attract attention.

So he nodded quickly and assured repeatedly: "Don't worry, Brother Jiang, I will definitely keep it tightly covered."

Shen Jiasui looked at Jiang Xun who was chatting and laughing with Shen Jiaheng, and felt that the more he understood the person in front of him, the more he could understand what it meant to be as white as snow and as beautiful as jade.

Jiang Xun looked over and met Shen Jiansui's gaze. The two were smiling at each other when suddenly the south wind from outside was brought in.

Jiang Xun turned his head and saw Nan Feng making a gesture. His eyes lit up and he whispered to Shen Jiasui:

"Sui Sui, there's something going on over there with Gu Xizhi!"
