The whole capital persuaded me to remarry

Chapter 295
In a blink of an eye, more than half of the twelfth lunar month has passed, and the New Year will soon be here.

Zhen Baoshu and Yan Jiulan have been married for more than 40 days, but the relationship between the two is still as sweet as honey. The maids and servants serving in the main courtyard can hear the sweet smiles of their adults and wives every day Voice.

This morning, Yan Jiulan opened the window and looked out, "I reckon it will snow today."

Zhen Baoshu sat up from the bed, "Really? It hasn't snowed this year."

Afraid of the cold wind blowing in, Yan Jiulan closed the window, walked back to the bed and asked Zhen Baoshu, "Would you like to go to the countryside to see your parents, elder brother, second brother?"

Zhen Baoshu stopped putting on her clothes.

She looked up at him expectantly, "Can I go?"

Yan Jiulan nodded, "They won't go out to work in the countryside when it's snowing. Let's go there while it's not snowing. When we get to the countryside, they can rest when the snow falls heavily."

Zhen Baoshu was so happy that she jumped up from the bed, "Okay, let's go! Just a few days before the New Year, let's celebrate the New Year with our parents in advance!"

Yan Jiulan rubbed her head, "There's no need to make it early, we can celebrate the New Year in the countryside this year."

Zhen Baoshu looked up at him from his arms in surprise, "Brother Yan, are you serious? We can stay in the country all the time? But you are a Jiedu envoy, so there must be many people giving gifts during the Chinese New Year. Wouldn't it be nice if we weren't here? "

Yan Jiulan pursed her lips, "I just don't want to accept gifts from them, that's why I want to avoid going to the countryside."

When Zhen Baoshu was in the prime minister's mansion, she often saw her father interacting with the people below to maintain her relationship. She frowned and said, "You don't give the officials below a chance to get close to you and please you. I'm afraid they won't have the same heart with you—"

Yan Jiulan said, "Do they dare? I'm different from my father. My father is the prime minister and a courtier. He naturally has to build a good relationship with the officials below. Otherwise, how can he create an aura that everyone responds to in the court? I am a festival Dushi is a foreign minister who guards Jingnan. Here the sky is high and the emperor is far away. As long as I keep the military power, no one in this area of ​​Jingnan will dare to be disobedient. I am not afraid that they will play against the emperor. What can they say to the emperor, saying that I don't accept the gift? They will die then."

Seeing that he really didn't care about the gift-giving of the officials below, Zhen Baoshu stopped worrying.

Coincidentally, she also saved dealing with those officials and wives.

When she thought that some officials were in their 50s and 40s, and the wives of those officials must be in their [-]s, all of them were the same age as her mother, and she had to salute her courteously, she felt uncomfortable.

Brother Yan wanted to hide in the countryside, but she only wanted it more.

The two quickly packed up, brought three big carts of New Year gifts, and various fur coats and cotton-padded quilts, and set off before the snow fell.

Zhen Baoshu had already learned how to ride a horse, so she let the carriage follow far behind, while she and Yan Jiulan galloped forward with one horse and one horse.

Obviously, she was going from the bustling city to the countryside with poor conditions, but there were her parents and brothers in the countryside, so she didn't feel depressed at all. Rush to parents.

A few hours later, Yan Jiulan and Zhen Baoshu's horses stopped at the entrance of the village.

Zhen Baoshu asked happily, "Do you think my parents will be happy to see us?"

Yan Jiulan said, "No."

Zhen Baoshu looked at him in surprise, "Why?"

He smiled and said, "Because Dad told me last time that he doesn't want you to come to the countryside to see him in a relaxed suit, he hopes you have good news and have a baby in the city with a big belly..."
