Chapter 486 Clinging

Song Ying glanced at Shen Wanyun. Her previous feeling was indeed correct. Shen Wanyun was interested in Shen Jing.

Although what she said made sense and she spoke slowly, it was really not in line with her personality. People who knew her well could hear a bit of urgency in her words.

She sighed in her heart. Look at what Grandfather Shen Zhuangyuan had done. None of the marriages he had arranged for his granddaughters were to their liking.

Shen Jing was embarrassed by Shen Wanyun's question and repeated awkwardly, "I thought Sister Song Ying was a miracle doctor and had great merit in saving the dying and healing the wounded. The gods should pay more attention to her, haha."

At this time, Yuan Qing suddenly took out three incense sticks and handed them to Song Ying, saying with a smile: "I also think Song Ying's prayer is more effective. Please also sincerely pray for the blessing of Lord Kuixing for me."

Shen Wanyun's face suddenly felt hot, as if she had been slapped in the face, and she felt extremely embarrassed.

Shen Jing was supported and was very happy: "Right, I'm not the only one who feels this way."

Song Ying was stunned. She didn't expect that there would be such a legitimate opportunity. She thought she could only wait until they finished the worship, and then go forward in the name of praying for Song Yuan. She secretly prayed for Yuan Qing, but she was worried that people would see something was wrong if she was too serious. After all, Song Yuan had not yet started to study Confucian classics, and he had a long way to go on the road to fame.

She looked at Yuan Qing, met his clear and bright eyes, saw the joy and expectation in them, and smiled, "Okay, I'll beg for you, but if you don't win, you can't blame me for not being sincere."

This feeling of being both secretive and open is quite good.

"Don't blame me." Shen Jing was very happy.

Yuan Qing said: "I didn't pass the exam because I'm not good enough, how can I blame others?"

Song Ying took the incense from Yuan Qing's hand, turned to face the statue of Lord Kuixing, and prayed sincerely to Lord Kuixing to bless Yuan Qing to succeed in the college entrance examination, to bless Song Yuanqiu to be admitted to Jiahu Academy, and to bless Shen Jing to be admitted.

Looking at the incense that Shen Jing was still handing over, Luo Yanxing raised his eyebrows. So, this prefect's son also likes Song Ying?

Hey, she said, Song Ying is so good, it's normal for the son of officials to like her.

She stepped forward and said with a smile, "I don't have any brothers or sisters who need to take the imperial examinations, but since I'm here, I have to pay my respects to Lord Kuixing and ask for his protection for the three of you scholars. One more person means a better chance of success."

As she said this, she casually and naturally went to take the incense from Shen Jing's hand. Unexpectedly, Shen Wanyun beside her took the incense faster than her and said with a smile: "That makes sense. It is fate that we are all together tonight. I will also pray for Master Shen and Master Yuan."

Although she had pleaded for Shen Jing when she pleaded for her brother before, she couldn't say it out loud. It was such a pity that she did something for someone but the person involved didn't know about it.

Luo Yanxing was not annoyed when her incense was snatched away. Anyway, she just didn't want Shen Jing's incense to be passed on like that. After Song Ying finished his worship, he might be in a dilemma about whether to take his incense and worship again.

Or other people may have seen Shen Jing's affection for Song Ying from his long-lasting actions, and inferred that Song Ying took the incense handed to her by Yuan Qing and did not accept Shen Jing's because she had feelings for Yuan Qing.

Although there were many careful people present who noticed the clues, it still had to be covered up and it was not appropriate to expose it now.

After the group finished worshipping Lord Kuixing with their own thoughts, they were about to squeeze out of the crowd when they heard someone say with a smile: "Dr. Xiao Song, Shopkeeper Luo, what a coincidence."

Song Ying and others looked over and found that it was Chen Yunze.

He put away his folding fan and walked towards them. "It's rare that two busy people come out to play."

After becoming business partners, Chen Yunze invited them to several banquets between businessmen, but because most of the banquets were held at night, the two girls were not safe;

During the day, I was busy seeing patients or running the shop, and I had no time, so I never accepted Chen Yunze's invitation.

Luo Yanxing smiled and said openly, "You guys are a bunch of grown men drinking and talking about things, I, a little girl, don't dare to go."

Chen Yunze was stunned for a moment, then laughed out loud, "I was inconsiderate, please forgive me, Shopkeeper Luo. Let me think about it, and prepare a bigger business banquet next time, during the day, and invite more female shopkeepers."

"I will definitely go to such a business banquet!" Luo Yanxing did not hesitate.

Chen Yunze looked at Yuan Qing again and said with a smile, "Brother Yuan won the first place in the provincial examination. I haven't had the chance to congratulate you yet. Congratulations."

"Just passing the provincial exam doesn't count as high school..."

Yuan Qing greeted him politely, and Song Ying was very impressed. He felt that Yuan Qing was really capable. He had cheated the Chen family out of a big fortune and made the Chen family completely unaware of it. The family was still grateful to him.

I'm afraid they now think that they were just one step behind, and that they couldn't escape after trying all kinds of ways. Little did they know that if it weren't for Yuan Qing's plan, which severely offended County Magistrate Chen, even if County Magistrate Dongling was convicted in the end, the implications would not be so wide.

After greeting Yuan Qing, Chen Yunze looked at Shen Jing and Shen Yonghui with a smile, "I believe you two must be Young Master Shen and Young Master Shen. I have heard of your great names for a long time. It is a pleasure to meet you."

Shen Jing and Shen Yonghui were both indifferent and just bowed slightly.

The Chen family is considered a big business family in Qingshui County, but to the two of them, they are not good enough and not worth making friends with.

Chen Yunze didn't mind their indifference at all. Seeing that they had no intention of introducing the young ladies of the Shen family to him, he said enthusiastically, "I wonder where you are going to go next. If you are willing, you can go to my houseboat for a visit. There is a small literary gathering there tonight, and some of the people going there are candidates who will take the college entrance examination next month. You can exchange knowledge with each other."

Before Yuan Qing and the other two could answer, Shen Wanting's eyes lit up and she asked anxiously, "Is this the largest one in your house?"

Chen Yunze nodded with a smile, "Yes, there are many people, and only that one is spacious."

Shen Wanting was immediately moved and looked at Shen Yonghui expectantly: "Sixth brother, let's go!"

Although Qingshui County has a Lingjiang River that connects to the southern water system, Mingjia Lake is not directly connected to the Lingjiang River. It is very troublesome to buy a pleasure boat and transport it to Mingjia Lake. Therefore, in the entire Mingjia Lake, only the Chen family has a pleasure boat, and the rest are just small boats.

She had long thought about going on a pleasure boat trip, but her grandmother kept them under close supervision and she had never had the chance. She didn't want to miss it today.

Shen Yonghui agreed without much thought. It would be fun wherever he went tonight, and it would be even better if he could make his sisters happy.

Since he agreed, Yuan Qing and Shen Jing had nothing more to say. Besides, they were not very opposed to going to the pleasure boat.

Seeing that it was done, Chen Yunze was very happy, and smiled and said to Luo Yanxing: "You are not afraid tonight because you have your good friends with you, right?"

Luo Yanxing smiled.

The group headed towards the Chen family's pleasure boat. After the others had left, Chen Yunze approached Luo Yanxing and whispered, "Thank you so much for tonight."
