Chapter 109 Participating in the Scientific Expedition

Seeing that it was indeed getting late, Mr. Shen pulled Shen Xinglin out and said, "You'll be back later."

Old Madam Shen glared at Old Man Shen, snorted, and walked past him without looking back.

How could Mr. Shen bear such a scene? He quickly pulled Shen Xinglin to chase after him, with a humble and submissive look, without any trace of his previous arrogance.

A group of people arrived at the scientific research site in a horse-drawn carriage, which was already surrounded by people.

The early arriving candidates have formed a long queue, which is getting longer and longer, and the number of participants is still increasing.

They wore neat clothes and hats to show respect and caution.

Shen Xinglin looked at the long line in front of him with a confident smile. He turned around and looked at his grandparents, mother and sister: "I will definitely get good grades."

Mr. Shen patted his shoulder vigorously and said, "Lin'er, grandpa is waiting for you here, go with peace of mind."

Madam Shen said gently: "Don't put too much pressure on yourself. Lin'er, you are still young and there will be many opportunities in the future."

"Grandpa and grandma, don't worry, I won't let you down." Shen Xinglin said.

Mother came forward and hugged Shen Xinglin, her eyes slightly red. She didn't want Lin'er to take the exam at such a young age, but this was what he wanted. As a mother, she could only support him, but she still couldn't bear it.

Shen Xinglin's eyes were slightly warm as she said, "Mom, this is what I wanted to do, don't be sad."

"Okay, mother, you should be happy. Lin'er has grown up."

Shen Jingxuan pulled Shen Xinglin in front of her. She raised her hand and touched Shen Xinglin's head: "Lin'er, although you are still young, there will be plenty of opportunities in the future, but sister hopes that you will not miss every opportunity to grow."

"Sister hopes that you will not just try your best, but give it your all. Only in this way will your efforts be worthy of being wasted."

Shen Xinglin looked at Shen Jingxuan and said loudly: "Sister, I will definitely do my best. Thank you for your guidance."

He was very happy at this moment. His sister believed in herself. She didn't want her grandparents to comfort her, fearing that she would not do well in the exam.

Unlike my mother, who couldn't bear to let herself suffer and clearly didn't want me to participate, but had to agree.

Only his sister would support him no matter what decision he made and believed that he could do well.

Shen Jingxuan stepped forward and hugged him tightly, and patted his back: "Lin'er, come on, sister is waiting for your good news."

Shen Xinglin smiled brightly, nodded vigorously, turned confidently and went to line up. The smile on his face never disappeared until he entered the door of the examination venue.

Shen Jingxuan took the rest of the people to Ma Chu to wait, and they waited from noon to sunset.

They were sitting in the carriage and heard the sound of the heavy door opening. They got off the carriage one by one and stood there looking for Shen Xinglin.

After a while, Shen Xinglin was seen waving happily over here, with a smile on his eyes and eyebrows.

"Lin'er, how is it?" Old Master Shen stepped forward and asked excitedly.

"Grandfather, the results haven't come out yet, but I think it's okay." Shen Xinglin said.

Seeing him like this, Shen Jingxuan said, "Lin'er, don't be careless about anything. You have to wait until you know the final conclusion before you can speak frankly."

Shen Xinglin restrained his smile, looked at Shen Jingxuan and said "yes".

It was indeed too early for me to be happy. My sister was right. The result hasn't come out yet, so it was indeed inappropriate for me to do so.

They got back on the carriage, and by the time they arrived at the Duke of Zhenguo's Mansion, it had already darkened.

As soon as Shen Jingxuan reached the gate of the yard, she saw Li Yong walking out in a hurry.

He saw Shen Jingxuan walking towards her quickly: "Miss, something happened on the farm."

Shen Jingxuan had no choice but to follow Li Yong and get on the carriage again to go to the farm to check the situation.

At the Ma Director's, Li Yong and Shen Jingxuan told the situation at the village, and that an old woman was in trouble.

Early in the morning, everyone was busy doing their own things. By chance, a woman discovered that the old woman who had worked with her before was not there.

She went to the old woman's house and found that she was very ill and her consciousness was a little blurred.

The lady hurried to find Chen Yi and took him to see the old woman's condition. Just when Chen Yi wanted to find a doctor for her, she refused.

But human life is at stake, so Chen Yi cannot be vague and has to secretly ask a doctor to see her.

What was strange was that although he was obviously seriously ill, he tried his best to refuse treatment from the doctor. They had no other choice, and they couldn't let anyone die on the farm, so they came to look for Shen Jingxuan.

Li Yong brought Shen Jingxuan all the way to the old woman's house. When Chen saw Shen Jingxuan, he hurriedly said, "Miss, she just doesn't want to see the doctor. I have persuaded her many times."

"Yeah," Shen Jingxuan responded lightly and walked forward to check.

Shen Jingxuan saw that the old woman's face was pale, her eyes were full of fatigue and pain, and even her breathing became shallow, as if she used up all her strength with every breath.

She stared blankly above the bed, tears glistening in her eyes, as if she had lost hope in life.

"Mammy, why don't you let the doctor treat you?" Shen Jingxuan's voice attracted the old woman's attention.

When she looked at Shen Jingxuan's clothes, she knew that she should be a hostess or a lady.

But she didn't want to continue talking. She turned her head back, and when her eyes caught sight of Shen Jingxuan's hair, she turned around suddenly.

Shen Jingxuan was startled by her action and took a step back, not understanding why the old woman had changed like this.

She asked tentatively: "Mammy, you don't want the doctor to see it, how about I help you?"

The old woman ignored Shen Jingxuan and stared at her hairpin, unwilling to look away.

Seeing that she had no objection, Shen Jingxuan put her hand on her pulse and breathed a sigh of relief after taking her pulse.

Fortunately, it’s not a serious illness. As long as you rest slowly in the future, it won’t be a big deal.

She told Chen Yida, "I'll write a prescription. You can find the medicine and have someone boil it for her to drink. She'll be fine in a few days."

"Okay, I'll send someone right away."

Chen Yi gradually felt relieved. He was really afraid that something might happen and make the young lady unhappy, which would be a waste of time.

Zhuangzi originally grew some simple medicinal herbs, which were not difficult to find, but it would take a longer time to boil the medicine.

Seeing that it was getting late, Shen Jingxuan said hello to Chen Yi and asked him to find someone to watch the old woman drink her medicine, and then prepared to return home.

She turned and walked out of the house, but she didn't expect that the old woman would go out of the house regardless of others' obstruction, choking on her steps.

Because she walked in a hurry, she choked after only a few steps and fell to the ground. However, she still did not give up and crawled towards Shen Jingxuan.
