spend time

Seeing the beaming smile of his childhood playmate Chen Jinyu, Jiang Shaohua briskly raised the corners of his mouth and laughed.

In her previous life, she left Nanyang County and went to the capital, and she never saw Chen Jinyu again. Over the next few years, I heard about her intermittently.

For example, if you get married when you are young, but your husband and wife are not harmonious in temperament, they will treat each other as guests after getting married.

For another example, Chen Changshi died unexpectedly, and the Chen family was defeated. Chen Jinyu suffered a lot in her husband's family, and was abandoned because she never gave birth to a son. After returning to her parents' home, she was depressed. Before she was thirty, she fell seriously ill and died.

In this life, she was reborn, and the people around her naturally had to live a new life. They wanted peace and long-term peace, and they also wanted to live wonderful and contented lives.

"It's okay to talk about my grandfather and my father, but I'm afraid my mother won't nod." Chen Jinyu was happy for a moment, then held her chin and sighed:

"In the eyes of my mother, women should be gentle, chaste, quiet, virtuous and virtuous. The right way is to study female beauty and cooking skills, and they should not read too many books. She always says in my ears that women do not need to take scientific examinations to become officials. , it is enough to recognize a few words without being blinded. If you read too much, you will feel uneasy at home... When I started arguing with her, she would cry and say that I contradicted my mother and was disobedient and unfilial."

"She wants to keep me confined in the house all day, and will never allow me to go out on errands."

Jiang Shaohua smiled slightly: "Don't worry, I will personally convince her."

When calling himself the princess, he naturally showed an irresistible noble demeanor.

Chen Jinyu was startled for a moment, as if she had just realized at this moment that the little girl in her memory was now the person in charge of Nanyang County, and the princess of Nanyang County that everyone wanted to look up to.

Jiang Shaohua glanced at me with a smile: "How about it? Can your mother be impressed by the grandeur just now?"

Chen Jinyu grinned, gave the princess a thumbs up, and then asked with a curious chuckle: "I heard that you led troops to Li County and suppressed two groups of bandits. Did you do it yourself?"

Under the concealment of Chen Zhuo, Song Yuan and others, the fact that Jiang Shaohua personally killed the bandits did not spread.

At least, it hasn't reached the ears of the boudoir girls yet.

Jiang Shaohua's eyes flashed and he asked instead: "If I kill the bandits, will you be afraid?"

Chen Jinyu responded naturally: "There is nothing to be afraid of. The bandits burned, killed, looted, tortured and harmed the people, and they should have been killed."

Sure enough, it was still the same Chen Jinyu who hated evil as much as he remembered.

Jiang Shaohua felt inexplicably lighter and said with a smile, "Sister Jinyu is right."

While chatting and laughing along the way, the carriage stopped.

Bowang County Government has arrived.

……

County Magistrate Chen had already tidied up the backyard of the county government office and respectfully asked the princess to settle down.

Mrs. Chen Yao finally showed up.

Magistrate Chen had a reason for insisting on marrying Yao. Yao's Pingting is graceful and delicate. She is over thirty years old, but she is still a soft and graceful beauty.

Chen Jinyu is bright, lively and valiant. Her appearance and temperament are similar to those of her grandfather Chen Zhuo, but not at all like her mother Yao.

"My concubine has met the princess." Mr. Yao bowed with his crotch folded, his posture graceful.

No wonder she is so picky about her daughter on weekdays. Compared with Yao, Chen Jinyu doesn't look like a tomboy.

A smile flashed in Jiang Shaohua's eyes, and he said warmly: "Mrs. Chen, please get up."

Yao thanked the princess for her kindness and stood up slowly. The corner of his eye drifted towards Chen Jinyu.

Chen Jinyu lowered his head and walked over slowly.

Jiang Shaohua suppressed her laughter and said pleasantly: "Sister Jinyu, please step aside first. I have something to say to Mrs. Chen alone." Chen Jinyu's eyes lit up, she quickly looked at Jiang Shaohua, and then pretended to leave. .

Mrs. Yao felt a little uneasy. When she sat down, she sat half-way down to show her respect to the princess: "I wonder what the princess has ordered."

Jiang Shaohua smiled warmly and said, "This princess has something to discuss with Mrs. Chen."

"This county mainly inspects fourteen counties. Wan County and Xi'e County have already been inspected, and Bowang County is the third one. There are still eleven counties, and I, the princess, have no one to accompany me, which makes me feel quite lonely."

"So, I would like to discuss with Mrs. Chen and ask Sister Jinyu to accompany me. I wonder if Mrs. Xie will agree?"

Yao was a little confused and couldn't react in time: "Jin Yu is just a girl, what can she do."

Jiang Shaohua smiled and said: "This princess is also from a girl's family."

Only then did Yao realize that he had said the wrong thing.

Isn't it? The princess is also a girl, three years younger than Chen Jinyu! If she said this, wouldn't she be scolding the bald donkey in front of the monk?

Mrs. Yao smiled awkwardly and said, "I'm blunt and I said the wrong thing for a moment. Please don't take offense, Princess."

After a pause, he said softly: "The princess is young, beautiful and extremely intelligent. How can Jin Yu be compared to the princess?"

The words were spoken tactfully, and the rejection was also tactful.

Jiang Shaohua seemed to have heard nothing and said with a smile: "Sister Jinyu grew up in the palace and is my princess's playmate and friend. With her by my side, my princess can be relieved from the boring journey. Since thank you If Madam has no objection, then the matter is settled."

"The county master..."

Yao was anxious and raised her head to speak when she saw the princess looking over with bright eyes: "Mrs. Chen, could it be that she can't trust this princess? Or is she afraid that this princess will treat sister Jinyu badly?"

Yao's heart tightened and she smiled quickly: "The princess' words are serious. How can I not trust the princess? I am worried that Jin Yu's words and actions will cause trouble to the princess."

Jiang Shaohua smiled and said: "How could this happen? Sister Jinyu is extremely smart and articulate. Everyone praises her, but only Madam dislikes her for being reckless."

Yao was dumbfounded for a moment, but she still didn't want her daughter to show up. She mustered up her courage and said, "Please forgive me, Princess. This matter is not a trivial matter. I come from a woman's family and I really can't make the decision. I have to ask the master what he wants."

The princess was very considerate, nodded and said, "I was negligent."

Turning around, he ordered: "Yinzhu, go and pass on this princess' message and ask County Magistrate Chen to come over."

Yao: "..."

Couldn't the princess hear such an obvious excuse? No, she clearly heard it but ignored it.

Yao's heart felt inexplicably blocked, but he couldn't say anything for a moment, forcing himself to smile dryly.

After a while, County Magistrate Chen came in a hurry: "The princess has summoned me. I wonder what I want to ask you about?"

Jiang Shaohua said with a smile: "There is one thing. This county is inspecting various counties and would like to ask Sister Jinyu to accompany me. I wonder if County Magistrate Chen can agree."

Mr. Yao winked at her husband repeatedly.

County Magistrate Chen didn't know if he didn't see Yao's eyes, but he agreed immediately: "The Princess praises Jin Yu so much, and I thank the Princess for her kindness on behalf of Jin Yu."

Jiang Shaohua smiled and looked at Yao who looked a little stiff: "County Magistrate Chen has agreed. Does Mrs. Chen still have any difficulties?"

Yao said with a smile, "No, no, thank you very much, Princess, for your kindness."
