Chapter 307: Chapter 307: Looking at Each Other

"Sister Nanzhi..."

Seeing that the young boy was embarrassed, Nanzhi stopped teasing him and focused only on the condition of Miss Zeng.

"Nana, how are you feeling?" Lady Zeng held her daughter’s hand, worrying all over her face.

Her daughter Nana has been weak since childhood, even a slight cold would require a good two months of careful nurturing to recover.

She was angry because she was afraid that her daughter was startled and got hurt.

"Mother, I’m fine now." Miss Zeng spoke softly, looking at her mother’s flushed face.

"Are you sure you’re fine? Why does your face look so red?" Lord Zeng was also very worried. Seeing his daughter’s flushed cheeks, he couldn’t help but worry if she was ill again.

"Father, I’m fine." Miss Zeng was a bit shy and sneakily glanced at the people behind her father from inside the cup.

"You silly girl, you are not allowed to go out anymore!" Seeing her daughter looking behind her, Lady Zeng corrected her posture a bit, "This is Lin Dong from Sanwei Residence, and that is the doctor from Jihe Hall."

"Miss Zeng." Nanzhi nodded to her with a smile, finding the young girl who looked soft, weak, and incredibly adorable.

"Sister Lin." Miss Zeng’s voice was soft, causing a touch of pity in Nanzhi’s heart.

Wang Jingzhi, feeling inappropriate to continue staying in the ladies’ room, informed Lord Zeng of the results and left the room.

"Jingzhi! Are you done?" Shen Yuntian and Hexiu felt a bit uncomfortable sitting there. Upon seeing Wang Jingzhi came out, they felt as if they had seen their savior and quickly got up to greet him.

"Brother Yuntian, I’ve finished. Miss Zeng is fine." Wang Jingzhi found it amusing that Shen Yuntian saw him as a savior.

"Glad to hear she’s fine. Where’s Sister Nanzhi though?" Shen Yuntian scanned the room, couldn’t find Nanzhi, and became a bit worried.

"She will come out in a bit, let’s sit down first." Wang Jingzhi said, pulling Shen Yuntian back to the seat.

Hexiu had been staring at Shen Yuntian and was thrilled when he returned to sit next to her.

She had just turned eighteen and could discuss getting married in a few years with the main house. Looking at this man, she found him quite compatible, although he had a scar on his face, but he seemed robust – a reliable man for a lifetime.

Weirdly enough, she had tried to probe for a while, but he appeared clueless.

"Doctor, how is our Miss Zeng doing?"

"She should be fine now, and just needs to rest well for a couple more days."

"Shouldn’t she have some Calming Soup?" Hexiu cared a lot about her Miss Zeng, and quickly stood up ready to head to the kitchen.

"Medicine is inherently a poison. Although Miss Zeng’s constitution is weak, she doesn’t need to take these medicines. Usually, she should move around more. For diet, she can have some spicy foods, and don’t restrict her too much."

Wang Jingzhi explained patiently.

"Oh, thank you, Young Doctor." Knowing that Wang Jingzhi was Master Sun’s student, Hexiu trusted his words more.

"You should prepare the hen that Sister Nanzhi brought. Let Miss Zeng have it tonight for a good night’s sleep."

After Wang Jingzhi finished speaking, Hexiu gave a light "hmm" and went on her way, she didn’t keep chatting with Shen Yuntian.

After seeing her leave, Shen Yuntian felt relieved.

This little girl seemed quite cultured, but she would start questioning him about his marital statue as soon as she arrived.

She almost scared him.

"Brother Yuntian, did you just catch a marriage proposal?" Wang Jingzhi could not help laughing at Shen Yuntian’s reaction.

"Don’t ruin her reputation." Shen Yuntian was a little helpless, "Look at my current state, who would be thinking about such things? If I can survive well and find my brother and sister-in-law, that would be good enough."

Following Shen Yuntian’s words, the room fell silent.

They had all lost their families now.

"Life was better when we were still in the village." Wang Jingzhi broke the silence slowly.

"Hmm."

It took another half of an hour before Nanzhi finally came out of Miss Zeng’s room.

"Sister Nanzhi."

"Sister Nanzhi."

The two called out simultaneously. Nanzhi just gave Wang Jingzhi a strange look, wanting to say something, then shook her head and led them away.

"Sister Nanzhi, what happened?" Wang Jingzhi noticed Nanzhi’s complicated expression, he found it strange and turned to her for answers.

"Jingzhi, are you ready to get married?"

At Nanzhi’s question, Wang Jingzhi was dumbfounded. He stared at her stupidly, as if he was lost.

Shen Yuntian, on the other hand, found it a bit funny.

"Sister Nanzhi, what do you mean by that?" The young boy struggled a bit before finally managing to ask the question.

"Miss Zeng has taken a liking to you..." Nanzhi didn’t know whether or not she should say it, but when she heard what Miss Zeng said, she was almost shocked.

She never thought that Miss Zeng, who looked weak and delicate, could say such a thing.

"This... this.." Wang Jingzhi stammered for a long time, unable to form a complete sentence, his face flushed.

"Enough, let’s go." Nanzhi waved it off, and didn’t say anymore.

After leaving the Zeng Residence, the three of them didn’t go straight back to Jihe Hall. Instead, they all went to the county office together.

Since that ruffian had said he had broken his hand, why bother the government official when they had a handy doctor right here?

Lady Zeng looked at her daughter, her heart filled with both urgency and anger.

She never thought her daughter would ask that Miss Lin whether Doctor Wang was married or not.

"This young girl was spoiled by you." Lady Zeng felt her face burning. Which maiden could ask such a question?

Did she really not care about her reputation anymore?

"My lady..." Lord Zeng was a bit helpless. His wife usually spoiled their daughter the most, why was she blaming him now?

"What should we do now!" Lady Zeng was a bit anxious, their daughter was already seventeen and although she was in no hurry to get married due to her weak constitution, she needed to start looking at potential suitors. Now that she had developed a liking for a doctor without parents, it’s troublesome!

"What is there to be anxious about? You’re too hasty." Lord Zeng wanted to advise his wife not to think too much, but was silenced with a glare from her.

"Don’t you care about our daughter’s future? She is already seventeen, she can’t always stay like this. She has to get married one day, but that young doctor..."

Ladly Zeng didn’t finish her sentence, but they both understood.

No parents, no brothers, no house, no land, no shop.

If they wanted to marry him into their family, he might not even agree.

"I told you that you are thinking too much. Our Nana is weak, and he is Master Sun’s apprentice. Although the young doctor’s background is a bit poor, we have the money. We do not need to worry about him not treating our Nana well." Lord Zeng held a different view and made Lady Zeng stunned.

What he said was indeed right. If you thought about it this way, this young doctor really was a suitable person.

Miss Zeng laid on her couch, unaware of her parents’ plans. She was thinking about the young man earlier.
