Lumei liked Shen Ning, and also liked Shen Ning's generosity and simple wealth, but she did not forget who her master was. She blinked and said, "Miss, you are so generous to us, so you must give a rare treasure to the young master, right?"

Shen Ning was silent.

Lu Mei was shocked: "You didn't give me anything?"

Shen Ning looked conflicted: "I gave it to Mr. Qin before, but he refused. The favor of saving my life is as heavy as Mount Tai. I don't know what to give."

She gave away all the Shen family's wealth but he still refused to accept it. She really didn't know what she had left to thank him for saving her life.

Hearing this, Lu Mei covered her lips and smiled maliciously: "Of course I have to repay you for saving my life. Our Master brought you back personally. Who else can I marry if not him?"

Shen Ning's expression froze for a moment, looking unnatural. Lu Mei, the shrewd person, immediately realized that she had said something wrong, and slapped her twice on the mouth: "I have no control over my mouth, I am talking nonsense, please forgive me, young lady."

Shen Ning grabbed her hand and said, "What are you doing? I don't blame you, but please don't say this again. I don't know how to reply to you."

Lu Mei nodded: "I understand, just let it be."

Shen Ning always felt that Lumei really hoped that there would be something between her and Qin Zhuo. What was she worried about?

Qin Zhuo and her? It's impossible.

After rejecting the Queen's invitation, Shen Ning simply closed the door to visitors on the pretext of self-cultivation and refused to go anywhere.

However, Shen Ning did not do nothing during this period of recuperation. She wrote the travel notes she promised to those noble ladies.

She thought about the name for a long time and finally decided on the title "Floating Clouds"

This was her experience in her previous life, but to her in this life, it is nothing but floating clouds and smoke.

Just think of it as a vague fantasy story.

The Floating Cloud Record was completed and the study was opened. Shen Ning just took the book over and asked the shopkeeper to ask a scholar with neat handwriting to copy it, and then carefully revise and bind it.

Her original intention was to give it to others, but since she had put a lot of effort into writing it, she asked them to make one or two hundred copies to see if anyone would be willing to buy them.

Shen Ning sent the first bound volume to Princess Changle.

I don't know if she's interested, but it could be a good way to kill time if she's bored.

Little did she know that Princess Changle would stay up all night reading it after getting it. Shen Ning wanted to go out, so he sent someone to ask her. He learned that she was still catching up on sleep. She hadn't slept for a whole day and night, and was now sleeping soundly.

Shen Ning laughed. She didn't expect that her book was so powerful that even the martial arts master Princess Changle fell down.

Since Princess Changle was not coming, Shen Ning had to go out by herself. She wondered whether she should call Yunzhi, but the restaurant was very busy at that time, so she didn't call anyone.

Mo Lin and the other three followed Shen Ning closely. After the painful lesson last time, Mo Lin would never stay away from Shen Ning no matter what. He had to keep an eye on her and protect her safety.

Before he left, Liuying and Yuzhu gave him many instructions and they even wanted to carve them on his heart because they were scared by what happened last time.

It was rare that Mo Xueer came out with Shen Ning this time. She was mentally handicapped, but that didn't mean she couldn't serve Shen Ning. She did many things more carefully and seriously than Yuzhu. But there was one bad thing about her. She was particularly clingy to Shen Ning, like a little tail.

It was actually quite strange to see a group of six people walking down the street like this.

However, Mo Xueer was attracted by the novelties on the street. She didn't jump up and down, but looked at Shen Ning eagerly, indicating that she wanted to go and take a look.

Shen Ning naturally couldn't stand her look, so he took her there, eating and playing along the way, which didn't seem so unnatural.

Mo Xueer bought two freshly-made honey bean cakes with her own money. When she was about to hand them to Shen Ning, she suddenly saw a man pouring out from the shop next door. She was so scared that the cakes almost flew out. She dragged Shen Ning back and hugged him tightly.

Mo Lin also quickly stood in front of the two people.

Shen Ning was startled, and was at a loss whether to laugh or cry at their paranoid attitude.

The young man who had fallen out got up from the ground. The waiter in the inn threw out his gift, cursing: "Why stay in an inn if you don't have money? Just sleep on the street. You want to pay for your accommodation by writing a piece of calligraphy and painting. Do you think you are a famous master?"

The young man in plain clothes bent down to pick up his things. He felt humiliated and ashamed to be kicked out in public. When he lowered his head, one could clearly see the bulging blue veins on his neck.

He was very angry, but this was the reality, so he could only pick up his things and leave with his head down.

A man dressed in silk and like a scholar came out from the side, waving a folding fan in his hand, gloating: "Hey, Xue He, what's wrong with you? You were so arrogant yesterday, why are you being kicked out today?"

"Hahaha, everyone come and have a look, this is our great talent Xue He, well-versed in history and modern knowledge, very impressive."

When he shouted, everyone around him looked over.

The young man in plain clothes felt so ashamed that he could only glare at him hatefully, then turned around and ran away.

The man laughed proudly: "You are such a talented person, but you are nothing but a poor fellow."

Without the protagonist, the farce naturally fell apart.

A cooler honey bean cake was stuffed into Shen Ning's hand. It wasn't that hot on the outside, but still hot on the inside, and it was just right to eat.

While eating, he did not forget to instruct Mo Lin: "Send someone to bring the scholar to the teahouse."

Mo Lin made arrangements immediately and took Shen Ning to the teahouse.

Xue He, Shen Ning had some impression of this name.

If nothing unexpected happens, this person will be the top scorer in the imperial examination next year.

It is said that this number one scholar was the son of a declining scholarly family. He was very poor, but he had a lot of knowledge in his head.

The whole family helped him take the exam, and he worked hard and indeed became the top scorer. However, he was too noble and straightforward and could not stand any dirt, so he became the youngest and fastest-dying top scorer in history.

Because he offended someone, he was beaten to death in an alley after getting drunk, which shocked the whole city.

Shen Ning had no interaction with this man in his previous life, but he had heard of his title as the top scholar. Later, his death became known to everyone. Even if Shen Ning didn't care, he had heard some news about it.

She didn't expect to meet him by chance. Since he is a talented person, she doesn't mind helping him, especially since he is the top scholar in the imperial examination.

Maybe I can even get a living signboard for her study.

The first thing that comes to a businessman’s mind is naturally profit. Even if he is helping others, it has to be beneficial to himself.

Xue He was brought in quickly. He looked reluctant and the anger on his face had not subsided. Even when he saw that Shen Ning was a beautiful girl, his anger remained unabated.

"I wonder why the young lady asked me to come here?"

I was really angry, but I wasn't really rude.

Shen Ning understood his vigilance and anger, and put down the cup: "Xue He, Mr. Xue, right?"

"Mr. Xue, don't be nervous. I don't mean any bad things. I just admire truly talented scholars, so I want to give you a little help." She chose her words carefully and tried to be as tactful as possible.

Xue He: "No merit, no reward. I don't know the young lady at all, so I don't need her sympathy."

With that stiff-necked tone, no wonder others took advantage of his misfortune and laughed at him.

Shen Ning: "I am a businessman and I opened a study. I am currently hiring someone to copy books. I will provide simple accommodation and two meals a day. If you are interested, you can go to the study called 'Floating Cloud Pavilion' on Zhuque Street to find the owner."

After saying that, he stood up and bowed: "I am rude to invite you here. I apologize to you."

"Mo Lin, send the young master out."
