Zhulan came out and heard this sentence. The person was found, referring to the person, not the body. "How did you find it?"
Jinyan replied respectfully, "The servants of the mansion found him in the bushes. Young Master He was pushed down the hillside. When the servants of the mansion found him, Young Master He was already unconscious. He has now been sent back to Lord Wang's mansion."
Zhou Shuren, "Have you checked? Where was He Shu injured?"
Jin Yan replied, "Mr. He has some scratches on his face from tree branches, and his right hand and right leg are sprained."
Zhulan breathed a sigh of relief. It was a blessing that she only had a sprain instead of a broken bone. "It's good that she's still alive."
Zhou Shuren motioned Jinyan to leave and said to Zhulan, "Now that the person has been found, you can rest assured."
Zhulan took the handkerchief handed over by Mrs. Song and sighed, "We have found the person, but the exam is tomorrow and He Shu has injured his right hand so he will miss three years."
Zhou Shuren washed his face and chuckled, "Fortunately, it's the right hand that's injured. He Shu is left-handed, so it's not a big deal if his right hand is injured. I'm more worried about the scar on his face. I just hope it won't leave scars, otherwise he will be disfigured and he won't have to wait three years."
Zhu Lan paused for a moment and said, "After breakfast, I'll take Wu Ning to visit Wang's house."
Zhou Shuren wiped his hands and said, "Okay."
Zhulan washed her face and signaled to Mrs. Song to send someone to inform Wu Ning, as the girl must have not slept all night.
After breakfast, Zhulan saw Wu Ning and stared at the makeup on her face. How much powder had she applied to cover the blue color of her eyes? "Go wash your face. Sometimes you worry that you don't need to cover it up."
This was the perfect time to improve Wu Ning's favorability, especially since He Shu, who was found by the Zhou mansion's servants, gave Wu Ning additional favorability.
Wu Ning was stunned for a moment, then obediently went to wash his face.
Zhu Lan looked at Wu Ning, who looked really haggard. She held Wu Ning's hand and said, "Sometimes you don't need to hide. Be vulnerable when you need to be vulnerable. Don't hide everything. If you don't say it or show it, no one will know what you are thinking."
Wu Ning kept her aunt's words in mind and said, "Thank you, aunt."
Zhulan simply put a little bit of makeup on Wu Ning, but it not only failed to cover up her haggardness, but made Wu Ning look even more haggard. Then she took Wu Ning to Lord Wang's house with satisfaction.
At Lord Wang's residence, Xue took Zhulan to see He Shu. Xue didn't wipe away her tears. Although she was worried because the child was not her own, her tone was somewhat sad, "Fortunately, he is fine."
Zhulan asked, "Did the doctor check your face? Can the scratches on your face be healed?"
Xue said cheerfully, "When He Shu fell down the mountain, he protected his face with his hands. Although there are scratches, they are not deep. If he takes care of himself, there won't be obvious scars. Speaking of which, we have Miss Wu to thank for this!"
Zhulan was puzzled, "Why?"
Xue said, "He Shu used to be very weak, and all his attention was on studying. After getting engaged, He Shu would exercise every day, and his body is much better than before. When he rolled down, he could react and avoid important places. If he hadn't exercised, who knows how badly He Shu would have been injured!"
Zhulan turned around and looked at Wu Ning. She really didn't know about this.
There was a smile on Wu Ning's lips. She had only mentioned it to He Shu, and this guy actually exercised. It was a good thing that he did exercise.
As they were talking, they arrived at He Shu's yard. As soon as Zhulan entered the house, she smelled the scent of plaster.
He Shu was sitting by the bed. When he saw someone coming into the room, he quickly sat up and saluted with both hands, "Thank you for coming in person, Auntie. I feel guilty for making you worry."
Zhulan looked at He Shu's face, which had been covered with plaster. Fortunately, they were only minor wounds. After seeing it herself, she was completely relieved. "Your legs and feet are inconvenient, so you don't have to greet me."
He Shu put down his hands and looked at Wu Ning out of the corner of his eye. Seeing Wu Ning's pale face, he felt warm in his heart. "When my nephew gets better, I will come to thank you in person."
This time he thought he was finished, and he did not tell the truth to his aunt and uncle. After rolling down, his first reaction was to hide. His right foot was sprained when he fell from the tree.
Fortunately, his intuition was accurate. When he climbed up the tree, he saw someone coming down to find him. The important thing was that the person had a knife in his hand. He stayed on the tree without saying a word. Fortunately, the branches were big enough and he was wearing some green clothes, so he successfully escaped the danger.
It was just because his right hand was sprained and his left hand was numb from holding the branch, he fell down without paying attention. Fortunately, he was not injured and found a bush to hide in.
When it was completely dark and he could still hear the howling of wolves, he was really in despair. He regretted losing the bet and being tricked. In his despair, he was found by the servants of the Zhou Mansion. He knew that without an engagement, the Zhou Mansion would not care about him.
When he came back and faced the questioning, he thought about telling the truth, but he couldn't. He was not the biological son of the Wang family, nor was he the son-in-law of Lord Zhou. Wu Ning was just a foster child. He couldn't tell the truth and cause trouble, so he could only keep it to himself.
Zhulan and Xue looked at each other, and Zhulan said, "You two can chat for a while, we'll go sit outside for a while."
After saying that, Zhulan and Xue went out, but the maid still stayed in the room.
He Shu was a little nervous. This was the first time they had been together like this. "Sit down."
Wu Ning sat on the chair and said, "I'm glad you're okay."
He Shu's heart softened, "I'm sorry for making you worry."
Wu Ning's eyes turned red. She was more than just worried. She had been reciting scriptures all night and her throat was uncomfortable now. "As long as you are safe, that's all."
Then he became worried again, "Can you still take the exam tomorrow?"
He Shu's eyes darkened. He almost died this time, which was enough for him to remember for the rest of his life. "Okay."
Wu Ning opened his mouth and then closed it. This was a man's business. "Just be aware of it. Just don't put yourself in danger."
She really didn't want to feel it again. Another time would really cost her her life.
He Shu curled his eyes and said, "Lucky to meet you."
Wu Ning's ears turned red. This was the most extreme thing He Shu had said since they met. But it made her feel relieved. He Shu did not blame her for her bad fate. Instead, he was very grateful to her. That was good.
At the Jinzhou government office, Zhou Shuren didn't even need to ask Lord Wang who he had found out pushed He Shu. One look at Lord Wang's expression told him that nothing had been found.
Wang Ju comforted him, "It's a blessing that He Shuren is okay. Please be more careful in the future."
Lord Wang was very anxious. The bet was aimed at He Shu, and the scholar who made the bet with He Shu was also calculated. He searched around but couldn't find any clues. "Lord Zhou."
Zhou Shuren interrupted Lord Wang and said, "It's good that the person is back."
Lord Wang was stunned for a moment, his heart beating faster. Lord Zhou meant that if he couldn't find out, then he shouldn't investigate. Having known each other for so long, he should know Lord Zhou a little bit. Is this for his own good
Wang Ju pulled Lord Wang and said, "There are a lot of things waiting for us to deal with. Let's go!"
Lord Wang looked at Lord Wang and said, "Okay."
Zhou Shuren waited until the two adults left before calling Jinyan, "What did you find out?"
