Shen Zhixue didn't notice Shen Jinyao's expression.

He lowered his head and stroked the book in his hand, then continued, "At that time, my elder sister had been ill for a long time. One day, Zhixin heard the servants talking about my elder sister's illness..."

Shen Jinyao understood that saying something like "you're going to die" was not a good thing to say.

"Since then, Zhixin has been collecting all kinds of medical books. Sometimes he would sneak out and stay in the clinic..."

"I only found out about it when I accidentally saw him while passing by the clinic..."

After listening to this, Shen Jinyao felt a little moved.

After all, he is a biological brother, and he has done so much for his sister.

He is only eight years old, and his elder sister has been sick since he was born.

At first he could only watch.

Later, he probably thought that he could study medicine to save his sister, so he came up with the idea of saving the country in a roundabout way.

She also thought that because Shen Zhiyao was always sick, her younger brother was not familiar with her.

But bloodline doesn't have to be in one place.

"Ah, no wonder..."

Shen Jinyao's voice was soft, unlike her usual cold voice, but rather gentle.

Shen Zhixue looked up at Shen Jinyao in surprise.

"What's wrong, Zhixue?"

Shen Zhixue shook his head, "Sister, are you still angry with Tingyao?"

Having said that, Shen Jinyao sighed.

Zhixue and Tingyao are obviously siblings, so why is Zhixue so sensible?

"Don't I know Tingyao's personality? I think she has too little experience. I hope she can really learn her lesson this time."

Shen Zhixue said: "Sister, she will, I will keep an eye on her..."

He spoke anxiously, and anyone with a discerning eye could see that he was very afraid that Shen Jinyao would abandon Shen Tingyao if she got angry.

Shen Jinyao smiled softly, "Okay, then I'll trust you. Your sister has taught you."

Shen Zhixue nodded solemnly.

Shen Jinyao felt a little distressed. She glanced at the book in Zhixue's arms and asked, "I see you're good at painting. Do you like reading?"

Shen Zhixue lowered his head at this time. If he was still a young master of a marquis's mansion, even if he was born to a concubine, studying would be a matter of bringing honor to his family.

But he is now an exile, and studying is an extremely luxurious thing.

"Sister, I can finish reading these books very quickly."

He frowned and said solemnly, "I won't miss my wood-cutting job, nor will I miss my exercise. Besides..."

Shen Jinyao laughed. "Haha, look how scared you are. This book is for you. Take it. You can buy more if you like it later. But buy less. After all, some are heavy and take up space."

Shen Zhixue didn't expect that his sister would actually support him in reading.

"Really, sister?"

Shen Jinyao nodded, "Really?"

"Zhixue, do you know how we're going to live in Quzhou?"

Shen Zhixue shook his head.

Shen Jinyao: "It's nothing more than returning to the farmland, but we are descendants of the Shen family, and the only way to revive the mansion is to study."

"Besides... do you believe that your father is that kind of person?"

Shen Zhixue was silent at this time.

He felt a little unfamiliar with his father, but it wasn't that his father didn't like him.

He didn't like to be close to his father.

He was born with low self-esteem and was timid, so his father rarely spent time with him alone.

But... my father gives people the impression that he should be a good subject.

"Sister, I don't think so..."

He did not participate in party disputes and did not collude with foreign races.

"Should I? Zhixue, you obviously don't have confidence in your father? If he is truly wronged, who can help him clear his name?"

"Of course it depends on you. Pass the exam and revive the Shen family."

"Do you understand? Studying is our only hope, so I will definitely support you."

At this time, Shen Zhixue's eyes were bright.

He asked, "Sister, can I study while in exile?"

Shen Jinyao nodded. "Of course. Just like you said, allocate your time well and do what needs to be done. At worst, I can just get up earlier..."

Shen Zhixue laughed when he heard this.

In Shen Jinyao's impression, he rarely smiled.

He is so pedantic, like a smaller version of his father.

But he is so careful, responsible and ambitious, which makes Shen Jinyao feel that there is still hope for the Shen family.

Shen Jinyao: "However, I still have to teach you a task."

Shen Zhixue: "Sister, go ahead."

"Tsk tsk tsk, look at you, you are so old-fashioned."

After Shen Zhixue understood, he scratched his head embarrassedly.

Shen Jinyao: "When you study, you must take Zhiyong and the other three with you, and also Le Yao to study together."

Shen Zhixue's serious face showed an embarrassed expression.

"Zhixin and Zhiye are fine, big brother and little sister..."

Shen Jinyao burst out laughing, "How can a teacher dislike his disciples? Then you can make it easier for them two."

"But as long as you learn, they must follow along."

Zhixue said helplessly: "Okay..."

Shen Jinyao couldn't help laughing.

Shen Zhixue picked up his books and was about to leave. After a few steps, he turned around and said, "Sister, you have changed."

Shen Jinyao said jokingly, "Of course it has to change. I was lying down before, but now I'm standing."

Zhixue said, "Such a sister is very good."

After saying that, he ran away quickly.

Shen Jinyao looked at the sunset and couldn't help falling into deep thought.

She seems to be becoming more and more like the eldest sister of the Shen family.

She went to find Shen Zhixin.

The boy was alone, doing something with his butt sticking out.

"Zhixin, what are you doing?"

Shen Zhixin was obviously startled. He complained, "Sister, you scared me."

"I'm looking at the acupuncture points up there."

"It's getting dark. Let's wait and see tomorrow."

"it is good."

Shen Zhixin obediently put away the medical book. The brother and sister sat there in an awkward atmosphere.

Shen Jinyao: "Have you visited your mother?"

Shen Zhixin nodded, "I went to see her, but my mother said she was fine. I saw that her face looked a little rosier."

"Well, I'm glad you're okay. Maybe I'm just overthinking it."

Shen Jinyao looked into the distance and asked softly, "Zhixin, do you like studying medicine? If it weren't for what I said..."

She looked at Zhixin's puzzled eyes and explained, "Zhixue just told me that you read medical books all day because you wanted to cure me."

Shen Zhixin curled his lips, this Shen Zhixue.

"It was at first, but it's not now. I think it's very interesting."

"Besides, if I really learn it, then no one in our family will get sick anymore..."

Shen Jinyao touched Shen Zhixin's head and said gently: "Adi is indeed the most powerful."

Shen Zhixin's eyes turned red and he couldn't help but shed tears.

"Sister, wuwuwu..."

Shen Jinyao hugged Zhixin. At first she wanted to ask what was wrong.

Later I thought about it, maybe this was the first time Shen Zhixin was praised by his own sister since he grew up.

"Sister, don't worry. Mom will be fine, and Dad will be fine too."

Shen Jinyao let go of Zhixin and asked, "Do you believe that Dad didn't make any mistakes?"

Zhixin was a little puzzled. "Of course! Father is a good official and would not do anything foolish."
