Chapter 8 Fragrant Mountain Prayer

As the saying goes, good things don't go out, and bad things spread thousands of miles. The news of Shen Li's robbery is now spreading like wildfire.

The once unattainable noble girl fell into the mud and seemed to be an existence that everyone could pick off. Even a wealthy businessman wanted to get involved.

Shen Li looked at Zhong Ning's red eyes and saw that she had cried. Her mother seemed to be even more delicate than she was.

Shen Li could only comfort him.

"Okay, it's okay. If people like this come again in the future, just close the door and say thank you."

Zhong Ning nodded, then stopped talking.

"The Shen family is still a dignified Earl's residence, but now it's like this..."

Shen Li almost guessed what she was going to say and hurriedly stopped her.

"This has nothing to do with you now. It's obvious that they look down on others, so don't think too much about it."

Even after Shen Li said this, Zhong Ning was still depressed for several days, but perhaps because of this experience, she knew that hiding behind closed doors was useless, so she did not stop Shen Li from going to Xiangshan.

She looked at Shen Li's transformation and was so shocked that she forgot what she was going to say.

"Shen Li?"

After putting on a complete set of makeup, Zhong Ning just entered the room.

Shen Li agreed obediently and listened to Zhong Ning's nagging for a long time before she was able to get away.

Shen Li, the protector, had seen this person before, but this made her even more confused.

Shen Jiao was competing with Wen Xiaoxiao in a battle of wits and courage. From the corner of her eye, she noticed something strange about the people around her. She followed her gaze and the expression on her face froze instantly. She muttered in surprise.

"She is the one whose engagement was broken off by the Jin family?"

One stone stirs up a thousand waves. This name appears too frequently recently.

"It's so beautiful, especially the pink color, which makes us look like flowers."

It was not like she had never seen it before when she was taking care of the young lady taking a bath, but never before did she feel so...astonishing like this.

You know, since Shen Hai passed away, they, the orphans and the widowed, have been guarding the huge mansion, not daring to go out or say anything, and even dress in the most elegant way.

"You have to be careful when you go out this time. If you get tired of staying, ask your servants to escort you back."

"Xiao Shuang, help me tie the belt."

Facing Zhong Ning's doting words, Shen Li felt a little uncomfortable. Although her body was only eighteen years old now, she was already twenty years old in her heart.

She leaned on Xiaoshuang's shoulder, trying to contain the nausea in her chest.

Xiaoshuang looked at this little "thing" and had no idea what it was.

The crowd was buzzing with gossip.

She sat in the carriage for a while, straightened up her appearance, and then got up and went out.

Shen Li: "Has it been so long? Last time Jin Changqing came here, I saw that Gu Sheng was very good at it, but I didn't have any impression of him."

Xiaoshuang explained.

"Miss, you don't know, our wife picked him up from outside. I heard that when he was covered in injuries and there was no good land, the wife made great efforts to find someone to treat him.

Shen Li got up early and finally got the underwear made by the embroiderer according to her drawings.

The appearance of a new face like Shen Li naturally caused quite a stir. The most important thing is that this girl is very good-looking.

For some reason, Shen Li thought that man was strange when they first met. He always seemed to be following Zhong Ning. He was said to be a servant, but he looked nothing like him.

Xiaoshuang thought it was quite normal: "That person is someone who doesn't like to talk. Miss, you haven't come to the front yard very often before. It's not surprising that you don't know him.

Shen Li opened the curtain in a daze and looked outside, seeing a temple outside. The carriages parked at the entrance of the temple were full of people, each one more gorgeous than the last.

Shen Li never thought that one day she would return to her old career. She majored in fashion design in college. Although the school was not great, she really learned some skills.

Seeing the Earl's Mansion getting further and further away, Shen Li lowered the curtain and turned to Xiaoshuang to inquire.

Before leaving, Shen Li saw Gu Sheng again.

But even Zhong Ning herself had forgotten that she was only in her mid-twenties, not to mention that Shen Li was still a little girl.

Fortunately, God didn't let her suffer too much, and Shen Li fell asleep not long after.

On today's occasion, those who can be invited are all rich or noble, and they usually belong to the same circle.

Two days later.

But despite his weird personality, he is definitely a good person. Thanks to him taking care of my wife and guarding our yard in the past few years, otherwise he might have been bullied."

That aura of not taking everything seriously makes him look like the master of the house.

In addition to being surprised, I was wondering who this person was and why I had never seen him before.

The only thing I want is to spend this life peacefully.

Shen Li didn't expect that there was such a connection. Gu Sheng was injured and was rescued by Zhong Ning. He also happened to lose his memory. What a coincidence?

However, thinking about the time he traveled through time, Shen Li felt that the world was vast and full of wonders. From the current point of view, at least that person was harmless to the Earl's Mansion.

"It's been more than three years, Miss. Why do you suddenly ask about him?"

Shen Li picked out a delicate and unburdensome hairpin for Xiaoshuang, and then painted a peach blossom makeup herself, matching it with a pink and purple gradient gauze skirt, which looked elegant and youthful.

Looking at the place where Shen Li was wrapped in "cloth strips", Xiaoshuang didn't know why she was blushing as a girl, but she just couldn't control it.

When Zhong Ning heard this, she felt ashamed. She was a widow, so how could she look good?

"Xiao Shuang, how long has that Gu Sheng been staying in the house?"

Her drawings are detailed and vivid, and the bra she made fits well, but there are no buckles.

"Didn't you say that she was raped? Why did you have the nerve to come?"

The thought of Shen Li going out made Zhong Ning worried again.

When she opened her eyes again, it was Xiaoshuang who woke her up, saying that she had reached the foot of Fragrant Mountain.

The man opened the door and stood outside, acting like a doorman. He didn't say a word until he sent them out of the house.

Moreover, in modern society, with the five-year age difference between her and Zhong Ning, they could definitely be considered sisters. How could there be such a big gap in seniority between them.

Zhong Ning forgot what he wanted to say for a moment, so he just said:

Shen Li tugged her lips and smiled.

The carriage continued to move forward, but Shen Li couldn't hold on any longer. She didn't expect that her problem with motion sickness in modern times would be brought here.

As soon as Shen Li stepped into the temple, she received looks from all sides. She took a deep breath, lifted up her skirt and walked in without looking away.

Xiaoshuang answered without hesitation.

Shen Li exposed his back to her.

Xiaoshuang tried not to look at the two "white-faced buns" and carefully dressed Shen Li.

Although he was rescued later, his brain was severely damaged and he couldn't remember anything. The wife allowed him to stay in the house to investigate his life story, but nothing about his life history was revealed, so he stayed like this for more than three years."

"But with such great skills, how could he be willing to be just a servant?"

"I asked the embroiderer to make a suit of this color for you. It will definitely look good on you, mother."

"Yes, the mistress of the Jin family is here today. I don't know if they will meet."

Wen Xiaoxiao was still arguing happily with Shen Jiao, but when she heard the name Shen Li, she immediately lost interest. She glanced at Shen Jiao next to her and said.

"What bad luck!"

After saying that, he left without looking back.
