Liwan was uneasy. Suddenly, she felt a glance, staring back and forth at her. She looked up subconsciously, but she met Sun Shaozong's eagle-like eyes.

For a moment, her heart suddenly jumped. She quickly held her head down to her chest and complained about the crude and impetuous Jia Lian a thousand times.

Seeing Liwan's face showing a look of shame and annoyance, Sun Shaozong immediately realized that something was wrong. He quickly moved his eyes back to Jia's mother and showed deference to the rich and kind old lady.

At this time, Jia's mother got someone to take her hawksbill shell-rimmed eyeglasses. Holding the frame, she carefully scanned Sun Shaozong's eyes. She couldn't help but admire him, "Indeed, you are a young general with great military prowess. No wonder you can resist many salt dealers on the river. Aren’t they all the same as the descendants of the meritorious, why are all the children in the Rongguo Mansion so weak?"

As soon as the Old Lady opened her mouth, she couldn't stop. She sighed with emotion, "Although it's good to make progress in studying if you don't have a strong body, even if you can make a living for a while, how can you make it for a long time?"

These words immediately pierced into Liwan's heart. Regardless of her husband who died early, her son Jia Lan often causes disasters and suffers some diseases from time to time. If one day…

Just by thinking of it, she felt her hands and feet were cold to her bone.

"Old Madam!"

But Jia Lian wanted to show off. So, he said with a smile, "You're looking down on Erlang. he not only has a good body but also can solve strange cases!"

"I’ve heard about it."

The old lady patted on the red sandalwood Kang Table gently and said with a grin, "Lieutenant Sun solved strange cases in half a day, and Prime Minister Ruan has an insight of recognizing talents. This story has been told to me a long time ago, and it has been compiled into a little song and sung everywhere."

Jia Lian pulled out his chest and said proudly, "What I want to say today is not your old forks story, but something new which I saw with my own eyes!"

With these words, he told his Old Lady about Sun Shaozong was being appointed as the Assistant Prefecture Magistrate of the Central Judicial Office. After he was asked to investigate the mystery of the naked corpse, all the women in the room were amazed. Only then did they know that the iron tower-like man in front of them had intelligence or skill, and is being ingenious.

In the past, such stories can only be found in the ancient Chinese, but how can they be comparable to Jia Lian's personal experience in which he tells the story so vividly?

So even Liwan was unconsciously absorbed into the story.

After hearing of how Sun Shaozong had targeted the murderer to be the ‘Nine-fingers Yufeng’ step by step with clues, he did not take pride in his achievements. Instead, he walked away. He felt that this man was not simple. It’s just that with this way of dealing with people and affairs, only a handful of men in the Jia family could match him.

So she couldn't help looking up at the figure of Sun Shaozong.

Unexpectedly, knowing what Jia Lian said, he only regarded Sun Shaozong as a show-off prop. Under all kinds of boredom, he was sneaking an eye to look at Liwan again. His four eyes collided with one another!

They were both stunned.

Then Sun Shaozong smiled, and Liwan dropped her head like an electric shock. But somehow, her mind was full of Sun Shaozong's majestic figure, and her mind was full of thoughts that she shouldn't have, ‘If my dead husband had such a strong body, do I still have to worry about my son's early death now?’

Then she thought again that if Jia Zhu really had such a physique, how could he die early and leave herself alone to sleep all night?

This is most probably what people lack most in their lives, they tend to care most about it in their hearts. Liwan can still keep her peace of mind with such bookish young masters as Jia Lian and Baoyu. But when she first met such a ‘tough guy’ as Sun Shaozong, she had a confused heart.

In a trance, she suddenly remembered when she was having deep affection when they were newly married, the situation in which couples are happy and harmonious in bed. However, the groom's face was still Jia Zhu, but his figure was changed to Sun Shaozong's.

Amitabha!

Liwan quickly silently recited the Buddha's scriptures, trying to dispel the ‘evil thoughts’ in her heart.

She often used scriptures to suppress human nature, she doesn't know how many ‘evil thoughts’ like a bundle of firewood she has accumulated at the bottom of her heart. A sudden “fire broke out in her old house”, where can it be easily extinguished?

The more she meditates on the Buddhist scriptures, the more she feels a sense of dryness rising from her lower abdomen, it’s so tantalizing hot that it stirs her way of thinking. After a while, even Jia Zhu's face in her mind is blurred, leaving only a magnificent body…

"Second Brother Sun is really good at upholding justice!"

At this moment, someone outside the door suddenly gave a half-true and half-false exclamation. Then he saw that the curtain made of Shu Brocade was lifted, and a young man with pink and jade carving broke into him. With this opening speech, he saw that the red hydrangea on the best quality gold crown on his head was suddenly shaking. It looked really playful and joyful.

Then he complained, "Why don't you ask me along to go and have a look at such anecdotes?"

While talking, the pair of black lacquer eyes, which were as bright as stars, only revolves around Sun Shaozong, full of the means of exploration.

Seeing his red robe and jade belt and his attire being more extravagant than Jia Lian, Sun Shaozong guessed that the person coming should be Jia Baoyu, the protagonist in “The Dream of Red Mansions”. He also quickly takes a careful look at him. Unexpectedly, he found that this descendant of the nobility's mouth was painted with rouge only used by women. He was stunned.

Is that the reason why “The Dream of Red Mansions” has become a love tragedy because the protagonist is gay?!

Thinking like this, Sun Shaozong was afraid to look directly at Baoyu.

"I thought who it was? This clear and mischievous person eavesdropping on people’s conversation, it’s just you!"

At this time, Jia’s mother greeted him with a smile, "Hurry up, come over and get yourself warm. Are you not afraid of freezing when you stand outside on this cold day!"

Baoyu answered with a smile, but he was not in a hurry. Instead, he gathered around Sun Shaozong and said with an arch hand, "Is this the Second Master of the Sun family? No wonder it can attract Sister Rong's heart. As expected, it is not comparable to a vulgarian!"

Since he was with Daiyu, he naturally met Ruan Rong.

Seeing that he was only 13 or 14 years old and his sexual orientation was questionable, Sun Shaozong didn't care much.

When he was about to return the greetings, he saw that Baoyu bowed deeply and said, "When I saw Brother Sun for the first time, I shouldn't have mentioned some unreasonable requests. But if I didn't say it out and kept it in my heart, I would feel super uncomfortable. I'm afraid I can only be abrupt to you."

Unreasonable request?

Sun Shaozong thought Baoyu wanted to beg himself to take him along when solving cases next time. He shook his head and said with a smile, "If you want to go to see me investigate the case, I can't promise casually. The scene of the murder is bloody. If you are easily frightened, I can't afford to pay up for the Old Lady Feng here."

Jia Lian also flirted and said, "You’re such a small and young man, how can you see the bloody scene? Let's not mention about today's dead body was cut with dozens of wounds on its face. It looks more ferocious than the evil spirits in the Chenghuang Temple!"

But Baoyu shook his head and smiled, "That is not what I’m asking for."

As he spoke, he bowed to the end again and sincerely said, "I just ask Brother Sun not to betray the sincerity of a lady, hurry to give up your nuisance official position, so that you can pair up with Sister Rong and be a happy and carefree couple!"
