Unfilial Sons in Ancient Times (11)

Chapter 52

Ji Changze handled the family affairs at the speed of a rocket.

In ancient times, it was difficult to move without money.

On the contrary, with money, you can move freely.

He quickly found a nice house, bought a group of maids and servants, and visited the county magistrate, and hired a gentleman under his introduction.

The county magistrate was very friendly to Ji Changze.

In today's world, most people who can hold their positions are very capable, and the county magistrate is no exception.

He knew the reputation of General Hou, and the military advisor beside General Hou grew up with him. The two were closer than brothers, and the county magistrate also knew it.

Although Ji Changze was an accountant, he was followed by many elite cavalrymen and letters from the military advisor.

This was enough to make the county magistrate dare not offend him, and even want to build a good relationship with him.

In fact, Ji Changze had read the letter, and the content inside was also very common, nothing more than "Hello, hello, I tell you that Ji Changze is from our military camp, he went home to visit his family, I asked him to visit you".

In fact, the military advisor and the county magistrate had never had any contact, and they had no friendship, so there was definitely no talk of visiting.

The underlying meaning of this letter was "Hello, let me introduce you to Ji Changze, my man, help me protect him".

General Hou has a high official position and military power in his hands, so how can the county magistrate not protect him!

So, on the first day of Ji Changze's visit to the county magistrate, he hit it off with him.

Both of them were fox-like characters, you laughed and I laughed, and after a few words, they roughly knew each other's background.

Not easy to mess with, it's better to make friends.

Because of Ji Changze's own ability, plus the big backer of General Hou behind him, the county magistrate was very attentive when doing things for him.

As soon as Ji Changze started looking for a female teacher, the county magistrate sent someone to invite him to his house.

He introduced a female teacher to him.

He briefly introduced that this gentleman was thirty years old and had been married before. She was the daughter of a scholar and the only daughter. However, because there was no male in the family, her father took a boy from the family to inherit the family business.

As a result, her husband met with mountain bandits and died unfortunately. Her husband's brothers bullied her for not having children and robbed her family of good land and houses. Her parents had passed away, and her adopted brother was unwilling to support her. After that, she had been living alone and hard. Occasionally, there were young ladies in the county who wanted to get married. Before getting married, they would ask someone to teach them the rules. She made a living by doing this.

Ji Changze listened to it and asked directly: "These are not a problem, but I don't know what kind of character and knowledge this gentleman has?"

"She has been influenced by her father since she was a child. She is naturally well-educated and her character is also obvious to all. But she is a little cold and she is a widow, so she doesn't like to get along with men."

"That's good. I invited her to teach my two sisters."

Ji Changze thanked her on the surface. After leaving the house, he sent someone to check. Seeing that it was just as the county magistrate said, he posted a message and invited the female teacher to the house.

When the female teacher came to the house, she was really serious to the people around her, even to Ji Changze, the future master who would pay her monthly salary, she was cold.

Ji Changze didn't care, and just asked someone to invite Wu Ya and Liu Ya to meet the gentleman.

Wu Ya and Liu Ya felt as if they were in a dream these days. Their brother came back and took them to the big house in the county. There were maids to serve them every day. They could eat whatever they wanted and play whatever they wanted.

They also had their own rooms. No, not only rooms, but also yards.

Liu Ya was young, so she pestered Wu Ya to sleep next to her. Wu Ya was a little timid, and the two sisters lived next to each other in the yards, so they lived together and their relationship became better.

Today, they were playing with a cat's tumble together, and the maid suddenly ran over to say that the young master was looking for them, so they both came with a little nervousness.

"Teacher, please take a look, these are my two sisters."

The female teacher glanced at Wu Ya, who was nervous, and Liu Ya, who still had a confused look on her face.

Asked: "But do you want me to teach them etiquette?"

"Of course I want to, but the most important thing is to ask the teacher to teach them to study well."

When Ji Changze said this, the female teacher looked at him with a little surprise, and then the cold expression on her face eased a little.

"Being a woman, it is a bit difficult in this world. It is a good thing to have knowledge. Your Excellency is thoughtful."

Ji Changze smiled and returned the greeting, watching the female teacher take his two sisters away.

From now on, the three views of the sisters will depend on this gentleman to cultivate.

After waiting for everyone to leave, he took out the route map he had drawn before from his arms, and frowned slightly.

The gentleman was right, in this world, women have a hard time.

Just this female teacher, after all, is the daughter of a scholar, she is talented, and her temperament is not so weak that she can be bullied.

But even so, she was bullied after losing her husband.

You can imagine how hard life must be for that girl.

What's more, she has a child in her belly.

Being pregnant is hard for a woman. Even if she survived according to her original fate, she would still have to endure a lot of hardships.

He re-drawn the route map and decided to take the risk and arrive as soon as possible.

Ji's father and mother have never enjoyed such a blessing since they were born.

Living in a big house, they were served by maids and servants. Food was brought to them every day, and doctors took care of their illnesses.

The most important thing is that the sons and daughters no longer have to suffer and go hungry. The sons study every day and learn martial arts. Their faces are visibly rosy. The girls are also much more lively than before, wearing beautiful clothes and wearing I never thought of jewelry before. I study with my husband and occasionally do needlework together.

I'm afraid this is the life of the young ladies and young men in the dramas they have heard before.

Sometimes when I wake up in the morning, the second elder doesn't even dare to open his eyes, for fear that when he opens his eyes, he will realize that it was all a dream.

However, if it is a dream, then this dream is too long.

Just when they gradually accepted that they were called master and wife every day, and the children below were called husband and wife, Ji Changze came to say goodbye.

"What? Are you already married??"

The two old men were stunned.

Mother Ji reacted the fastest and asked eagerly: "Who is your wife? How old is she now?"

Ji Changze showed a trace of pain on his face.

When the two of them saw this, they were both stunned.

Could it be that something happened?

Then, they saw their eldest son, who had been steady and dignified since he came back, and said with a little heaviness:

"Back then, my money was robbed by robbers, I had nothing to live on, and I was hungry. After I was rescued by my wife, we fell in love with her and we got married. Unexpectedly, just after we got married, the rebels came to kill me. In the village, the entire village was massacred, but the son was lucky to survive, but the wife was kidnapped along with the women and children in the village. After she defected to the general, she found out that the rebels were engaged in human trafficking, and she was afraid that she would be sold to the northwest. "

Ji's father and mother were stunned when they heard this.

They all learned from the mouths of other children why Changze failed to come back in time, but they had never heard that Ji Changze was married before.

"Then you, then go and bring her back. She is already your wife and she saved your life in the first place. She should be brought back properly."

After Ji's father finished speaking, Ji's mother also nodded.

They were all farmers, but they didn't think about whether their character would be damaged if the girl was kidnapped.

To be precise, they know this, but they don't care as much as those wealthy families.

Neither of them is the kind of person who doesn't distinguish between right and wrong. When the eldest son was in trouble, it was the girl who saved their son and still didn't dislike him and married him. Now that the other is in trouble and the eldest son is in the military camp, he is capable. Of course I want to save people.

"The road to the northwest is far away, and the rebels set off in several separate waves. If we pursue them rashly, I'm afraid they will kill people to make the journey. If we want to save people, we can only save them in the northwest."

Ji Changze knelt down and bowed his head to his parents.

"Father, mother, we are married. At this moment, my mother may have my flesh and blood in her belly. I know that my father and mother and I don't care about these rumors, but it is difficult for women in this world. Now I am going to find my mother, please." My parents helped cover it up, just saying that my wife is in Ke County."

Both elders understood.

"Don't worry, none of us are ungrateful. Just go, we will take care of you at home."

After making it clear to his parents, Ji Changze began to prepare to return to the military camp.

He had thought about it before, telling the second elder directly that his wife was waiting in Ke County, and he could just pick him up and send him back when the time came.

But this lie may not be hidden from the children underneath. The old man's eyes are bright, and the possibility of hiding it is not high. What's more, after a woman has suffered such an ordeal, what she needs most is people's understanding and care.

Ji Changze also knew that according to the temperament of the two elders, the focus must only be on the fact that the other party saved his eldest son and was the benefactor of their family.

It is better to tell them the truth directly, otherwise if it is exposed in the future, both parties will think too much.

Now that he has left the house, the second elder is in charge, so they will naturally help cover it up.

So when Ji Changze left, everyone in the mansion already knew that he had a wife in Ke County, but the journey was far away and the eldest young lady did not follow her.

After arranging everything, Ji Changze checked it again to make sure there were no omissions before he started on his way.

Followed the previous route and rushed all the way to the army.

When he returned, the military advisor and general were waiting outside the military camp.

Seeing Ji Changze coming with his men on Pegasus, he waited for the other party to dismount, then smiled and said, "I guessed that you would be back today, and the days are almost here."

Ji Changze also smiled and replied: "I also guessed that you would be waiting for me today."

Military Advisor: "I also guessed that you would guess that I am waiting for you."

General Hou was pulled out to wait for others: "..."

Sometimes he really doesn't understand what these two people communicate with each other every day.

When the group entered the military camp, Ji Changze took out the Kanyu map hidden in his arms without saying anything.

"This map is drawn in detail. We can march based on this map, which is several times faster than before."

Although General Hou is too lazy to use his brain in daily life, when it comes to war, his brain turns faster than anyone else.

As soon as I saw this Kantu map, my eyes lit up. I quickly picked it up and held it in my hands to look at it carefully. The more I looked at it, the brighter my eyes became.

"This map is so detailed. I have seen a map of the world collected by His Majesty, but none is as detailed as this one. This is a treasure!!"

He was so excited that he said to the two people who were smiling at him, "There is probably only one treasure like this in the world, and we got it. Mr. Ji, where did you find it?"

Ji Changze took out another map from the box brought up by the guard.

"Come, military advisor, let's look at this map. This one only has our marching route, which is more detailed."

General Hou: "..."

He looked down at the map in his hand, and then looked at the more detailed and clearly marked map in Ji Changze's hand.

He smiled and squeezed over: "Let's look together, let's look together."

Ji Changze looked at General Hou with a sigh.

It's been a while since I last saw him, and the general's face is thicker than before.

More than a thousand years later, when the history books of later generations said that Xingguo rose from this, and netizens laughed on the Internet and called it "a country supported by three men", they didn't know at all that at the beginning, the three people just wanted to quickly wipe out the rebels so that Ji Changze could rescue his wife quickly.

As soon as Ji Changze gained the trust of the military advisor, he borrowed someone to draw a portrait of his wife, and specifically stated that she might be pregnant, and sent people to look for her.

But he didn't dare to call too many people, for fear of causing a butterfly effect and causing the other party to have an accident.

That night, the three of them discussed all night and finally made the final decision.

The next day, the army started on the road again.

The soldiers in the barracks thought they were just chasing like before.

Until they found that they had inexplicably reached the foot of Northwest City.

Northwest City is a city that has experienced a lot.

Before, Northwest City belonged to Xingguo, and then the neighboring Zhao State took it down, so it became Zhao State. After that, the court sent troops to attack and took Northwest City down again, and it became Xingguo again.

Later, the rebels rebelled and took down Northwest City, so it now belongs to the rebels.

However, what is more friendly to the people in the city is that even if it is transferred again and again, no matter who takes over, they have not suffered much.

Because Northwest City is connected to the fortress, there are many merchants here, and there are also many merchants in the city.

In other words, everyone is quite rich.

In other words, all the big families in the city have some background.

Let's take the Zheng family, one of the big families, for example.

Their family not only has many businesses in Xingguo, but also in Zhao. When Zhao took over Northwest City, one of the generals killed a son of the Zheng family, which angered the Zheng family and withdrew all their businesses from Zhao. That period was already a period of war, and they suddenly did this, and many people in Zhao suffered heavy losses.

But they still couldn't do anything about the Zheng family. If the Zheng family died, other merchants in Northwest City would be in trouble, and Zhao couldn't stand it.

The rebels were even simpler. They wanted money and food.

Therefore, no matter how much Northwest City had experienced, it was peaceful.

The merchants were also easy to talk to. We will give you whatever you want. Anyway, few merchants are stubborn and upright, and they won't even turn a corner.

Otherwise, how can you do business?

It was a balance.

The Xingguo people captured by the rebels were supposed to be sold to the Geq family next to the northwest city.

The Geq family was brave, but there were few people and they lived on the grassland, so there were even fewer women.

They could only buy women from human traffickers and children as slaves. They did not buy adult men because such people were difficult to control. It was not uncommon for adult men to gather together and kill their masters.

A month before Ji Changze and his men rushed here, Jiang Wanqing was brought into the city by the rebels along with other slaves.

Her belly was already exposed at this time.

The rebels then discovered that this woman was actually pregnant.

Jiang Wanqing's face was black and covered with mud.

When the incident happened, she was looking for wild vegetables outside the village. When she came back, she could only see corpses and captured women and children everywhere. She didn't have time to think about it, so she subconsciously lowered her head and grabbed the mud and smeared it on her face.

As expected, she was discovered by the rebels and captured together.

Because Jiang Wanqing's face was covered in mud and she pretended to be very timid, the rebels were somewhat disgusted with her, but they did not do anything else.

Before being taken away, Jiang Wanqing kept looking back, trying to find her husband, but after searching for a long time, she could only see corpses on the ground.

She was sad, but she also knew that the rebels killed all the men, and her husband was just a weak scholar, so naturally he could not escape.

She was discouraged for a while.

Jiang Wanqing was an orphan, and the villagers said that she was unlucky in marriage. Even though she looked good and was practical and capable, no one dared to marry her.

Only Changze.

He was a scholar, born with a fair complexion, spoke politely, and smiled at everyone. He never disliked her, and even took the initiative to say that he wanted to marry her.

Jiang Wanqing didn't know whether she admired the other party. She only knew that when everyone disliked her, only Changze didn't dislike her and was willing to marry her.

In fact, they had only been married for three days, and she still hadn't figured out her husband's temper and personality. In addition, he had suffered a disaster before and was weak. After the wedding, he had been lying in the house to recuperate. In fact, the two of them didn't talk much.

But this was the first person who didn't despise her and was willing to marry her.

But now, he was dead.

The journey was very hard. The rebels thought they were walking too slowly, so they stuffed them into a wooden cage. A bunch of people were crowded together, and there was no wind to block them. People were blown silly all the way.

Jiang Wanqing always sat in her seat without saying a word, and didn't say much. The people who were captured were not only from their village. If the rebels saw women or children along the way, they would directly capture them, so the cage was getting more and more crowded.

All they could eat every day was the dry and hard food thrown by the other side.

If these people hadn't been sold to others and kept alive, they wouldn't even have dry food.

Jiang Wanqing didn't notice anything unusual about her at first.

Until she felt her belly slowly getting bigger.

Eating so little every day and being exposed to the wind, it would be good if she didn't lose weight, how could she gain weight.

There was only one reason.

Jiang Wanqing touched her abdomen with care, with joy and grief in her eyes.

She was pregnant.

This child was Changze's.

Changze died, and the child was the only thing he left in this world.

She didn't know what the rebels would do to pregnant women, so she could only hide carefully in the crowd and cover her belly.

Fortunately, it was dark every time the rebels let them go to the toilet. She was mixed in a group of women, lowered her head and hunched her back, and successfully covered her belly.

The rebels didn't touch these women.

Originally, they escorted these people to sell, so they would definitely have enough money.

Even if they wanted to eat meat, why did they have to find these women who were locked in wooden cages every day, with unkempt hair and dirty faces, and their clothes were dirty because they hadn't been washed for a long time, and they smelled of urine because there were children locked in them.

They couldn't even see their faces, and their bodies were dirtier than them.

As for washing their faces?

On the way, they didn't have water to wash their faces, so they washed these slaves.

God knows whether the washed-out one is a beauty or an ugly woman.

Why bother with this effort.

Aren't the prostitutes in Northwest City attractive!

By then, after selling people and getting money, there will be as many women as you want.

Jiang Wanqing escaped, but because of the child in her belly, she had a desire to survive. She was observing all the way.

Then she found that the rebels had captured an unusually large number of Xingguo people.

And they were very cunning, always changing their routes to ensure that the pursuers could not catch up.

When they met those slaves who did not cooperate, most of them were killed with a knife, without saying a word.

Jiang Wanqing became more and more silent, just shrinking in the corner to carefully protect her stomach.

Just like that, I don’t know how long it took, and we arrived at Northwest City.

The lively city could not make the numb slaves happy.

Because the rebels were talking to the tall Hu people who were obviously not Han people.

That was Ge Q’s people.

One by one, the women were called out of the car, and the Ge Q men walked in front of them one by one with satisfaction and counted them. When they counted Jiang Wanqing who was hanging her head with fear, they paused.

His eyes fell on her bulging belly: "Is this woman pregnant?"

He frowned and looked at the rebels.

The leader of the rebels was stunned, and came forward to take a look. Sure enough, Jiang Wanqing's belly was already big.

"It's impossible. When we arrested people, pregnant women were killed."

Hearing this, Jiang Wanqing trembled and nervously protected her belly with both hands.

The little leader was still saying: "Look at this belly, it's not many months, who did it? Didn't I tell you not to touch these slaves!!"

The rebels behind him hurriedly shook their heads to deny.

"Boss, we didn't touch them along the way."

"Yes, boss, we are so tired from traveling every day, who has time to touch them."

The Ge Q man said: "We don't want this woman. Pregnant women can't be used. They may die when giving birth. We don't buy this woman."

The little leader's face became gloomy, and he looked Jiang Wanqing up and down.

In his opinion, Jiang Wanqing was a money-loser. People bought women to play with or give birth to their own children. Who would want a woman who was pregnant with someone else's child?

And if he had an abortion, he would have to buy abortion pills. Abortion was dangerous, and the woman might not survive. If she died, he would lose money.

But if he sold her, she was pregnant, so who would buy her?

Jiang Wanqing lowered her head, but she saw from the corner of her eyes that the little leader in front of her was slowly pulling out the saber from his waist.

She shuddered, gritted her teeth, lowered her head and looked around.

Her hand fell on her belly.

No, just run.

In any case, this child is the last continuation of Changze. He treated her well, but died early. Only when this child was born can he have incense.

This side was in a stalemate. A sedan chair came out of the city gate and happened to pass by. The people in the sedan chair saw this scene, sighed slightly, called the maid to the window of the sedan chair, and whispered a few words to her.

The maid nodded and walked quickly to the rebels.

"My lords, this pregnant woman has been bought by our young mistress. Please help me."

The little leader was stunned, and then he saw the maid respectfully handed over a silver ingot.

Selling a pregnant woman for so much, it's a profit.

He looked back at the emblem behind the sedan chair, and a smile immediately appeared on his face: "It turns out to be the young mistress of the Zheng family. Since the young mistress wants to buy this slave, we naturally have to sell it. You can take her away."

The girl was blessed and walked to Jiang Wanqing: "Let's go, our young lady has bought you, and you will be the slave of our Zheng family from now on."

Jiang Wanqing reacted, saluted hurriedly, lowered her head and followed the girl to the Zheng family's team.

None of the girls of the Zheng family looked at her and just let her follow. However, the little girl who brought her here came to her side after saying a few words to the young lady in the sedan.

"Are you from Xingguo?"

"Yes, I am from Xingguoke County."

The girl nodded, looked at her belly, and asked: "Whose is the child in your belly...?"

Jiang Wanqing's eyes were red, her hand fell on her abdomen, she touched it carefully, and said softly: "It belongs to my husband."

The girl was relieved to hear that they were not rebels.

Although she and Jiang Wanqing had never known each other before, they were both women, and she didn't want to see her being abused.

She did not ask Jiang Wanqing where her husband was. It was not the first time that the rebels had captured women and children from Xingguo and sent them to Northwest City to sell to the Ge Q family. All those men were killed, and she also knew this. .

The girl looked at Jiang Wanqing and said, "You are considered lucky. They have always refused to leave pregnant women. If my young lady hadn't happened to meet her when she went out to pay homage to the Buddha today, I'm afraid your life would not have been saved today."

"Yes, thank you very much, Madam. I, my servant, know how to work, and will definitely repay Madam."

"What are your plans for the child in your belly?"

Jiang Wanqing responded quickly: "The child in my belly is my husband's only bloodline left in the world. I will definitely give birth to him."

The girl sighed, maybe because she saw how pitiful Jiang Wanqing was, she came up with an idea: "Our Zheng family is considered a wealthy family in the northwest city. Girls in the Zheng family will be let out to get married when they reach old age. I don't care about the child in your belly." He is still young, if he is beaten now and works well in the master's house, he can marry someone else and become the head wife in the future. "

"But if you stay with a child, no one will be willing to marry you."

Jiang Wanqing also knows this truth.

But, this is her husband's child.

They had only been married for three days, and she only knew that his name was Ji Qing, with the courtesy name Changze. She knew that he left home for his parents, that he was a scholar, and that he was weak and could only recuperate from illness as he could not work.

But he didn't dislike her and married her.

And now, he is dead.

Only this child was left.

Jiang Wanqing's tears rolled down her face, she touched her abdomen, and said with a little choked up: "But this is my husband's only bloodline in this world. If I don't give birth to him, he won't even be the one to inherit the incense." Gone."

"Don't worry, girl. Since I have been bought, I will definitely do a good job. I will not delay anything because of this child. Please agree and let me keep him."

When the girl saw Jiang Wanqing crying, but still insisting on fighting for a good life in the future and not leaving her husband's child behind, she felt a little sad for her.

"Then let me tell the young lady for you. Don't worry too much. The young lady has always been kind, otherwise she wouldn't have bought you. If you don't want to abort the child, she definitely won't force you."

After she finished speaking, she ran to the sedan chair in front.

"Young Madam."

The curtains on the sedan window were opened, and sitting inside, a dignified and gentle woman looked over and asked in a gentle voice, "How is it?"

"The child in her belly belongs to her husband. Her husband may have been killed by those adults, so she doesn't want to abort the child, saying she wants to leave a lasting legacy for her husband."

The young lady nodded, with a bit of emotion in her eyes; "In that case, just follow her wishes."

"But she is pregnant, what kind of work is better for her?"

The young lady thought for a while; "Let's not mention this for now. My husband said that there are always unknown cavalry going around the northwest city in recent days. I'm afraid there have been changes in the northwest city recently. We'd better go to worship Buddha and pray for the family first, and then talk about it when we get back. Bar."

The girl nodded, watched the young lady put down the curtain, and followed.

Ji Changze didn't know at this time that the cavalry he sent over made the men of the Zheng family feel uneasy, so even the young lady of the Zheng family was a little worried, so they decided to go out to worship the Buddha.

On the way to worship Buddha, I met Jiang Wanqing again.

He actually decided to buy her earlier than in the original timeline.

After going round and round, things returned to their original appearance.

But Ji Changze is a bit of a thief.

He is well prepared.

Since in the original timeline it was the young lady of the Zheng family who saved people, and this young lady likes to worship Buddha, it would be much easier to operate.

Ji Changze arranged for a monk.

He interpreted the signature for the young lady of the Zheng family.

So, when the young lady of the Zheng family arrived at the temple today, she found that she had rolled out a lottery that she had never seen before.

A monk explained it.

The general meaning is that good intentions must be rewarded. Madam, there is a noble person who is in trouble. If you lend a helping hand at this time, there will be great blessings in the future.

The young lady of the Zheng family was stunned, and inexplicably she remembered the pregnant woman she had saved.

She asked softly, "May I ask, Master, what does this noble man look like?"

The monk clasped his hands and recited Amitabha.

"The root seedling fell under the towering tree. The young lady has chosen a noble person. It should be a woman, the root seedling. This woman is either carrying a child with her, or the child is still in her belly."

The girl accompanying the young lady of the Zheng family was stunned and looked at her master.

"Young madam? Could it be the woman we rescued on the way?"

The monk's eyelashes trembled, and his eyes narrowed slightly under his drooping face.

The young lady of the Zheng family believes in Buddhism, otherwise she would not have rushed to pray to Buddha for peace of mind as soon as her husband said that he was afraid of something happening recently.

Now she had just saved a pregnant woman with her front leg, and the monk with her back leg said that her noble lady was a pregnant woman and was still in trouble.

It doesn’t matter if you don’t believe it.

She quickly asked: "May I ask, Master, if this noble man will come to me in the next few days?"

"The poor monk doesn't know this."

He still didn't know whether that was Lord Ji's wife, so he definitely wouldn't dare to say anything.

Although I don't know why Mr. Ji asked him to say such things to Mrs. Zheng's wife, it is always right to obey orders.

The monk didn't say yes or no.

The young lady of the Zheng family was convinced.

Otherwise, how could there be such a coincidence in the world?

She had just saved a pregnant woman, and then the monk told her that the pregnant woman was her noble one.

She hurriedly burned incense, thanked him, and took the people out quickly.

As soon as she went out, the girl asked: "Young Madam, I'm afraid the master is talking about that woman. What should we do now?"

The young lady of the Zheng family thought for a while and decided that she would rather believe it or not.

"Take it back to your home, treat it like a guest, and take good care of it."

The girl asked, "What if the sign is not about her?"

"That's okay."

Although the young lady of the Zheng family believes in Buddhism, she is very open-minded in this regard.

"She was already pitiful. She was pregnant, but the child in her belly lost her father early. Even if it wasn't her, it was a good thing that we helped her. Otherwise, how would she live her life now without any relatives and still pregnant?"

Anyway, it’s okay to do good deeds anyway.

Of course she didn't know that as soon as the Zheng family's motorcade left, the monk behind him wrote a letter and passed it on as a flying pigeon.

This Lord Ji is really amazing. Even though he was so far away, he still sent him here in advance, and he actually guessed that Mrs. Zheng's wife would save a pregnant woman.

After he spread the news, he tore off the white beard on his face and left in a hurry according to Ji Changze's instructions.

Jiang Wanqing felt that she had met a good person.

After she was rescued, she thought she was going to be a slave, but the young lady of the Zheng family actually treated her like a guest and prepared a guest room for her.

I was afraid that she wouldn't adapt, so I often came to talk to her about needlework.

She felt grateful and worried at the same time, but after getting along with each other, she found that she and the young lady of the Zheng family were very close to each other, and the two of them could talk about anything.

The same is true for the Young Madam of the Zheng family. She thought Jiang Wanqing was pitiful, and she added the signature, so she wanted to take care of her. Unexpectedly, after getting along with her, she discovered that the two of them actually got along very well.

She was married far away, her husband was an only child and she had no sisters-in-law. She always went out alone on weekdays. Although she was clean, she sometimes felt lonely.

After all, the mother-in-law is old, and her husband has to go out with his father-in-law to do things every day. She can only worship Buddha or go out to buy jewelry and meet the wives of other families.

Now that there is Jiang Wanqing, the two of them are like close friends together.

Even if someone told Madam Zheng that the monk was a fake, she would still treat Jiang Wanqing like she does now.

Under the care of the young lady of the Zheng family, Jiang Wanqing's face gradually became rosy, and the fetus in the house was also very healthy.

The young lady of the Zheng family was happy to see her belly, and said to her husband at night: "I don't know when our baby will come."

"It's better not to come in the near future." Master Zheng hugged his wife and sighed sadly: "The imperial court has been fighting all the way, and the momentum is overwhelming. I'm afraid the northwest city will change hands again, and then there will be another turmoil. You What should I do if I get scared when I get pregnant?”

"Isn't that a good thing? We are originally from Xingguo, and now the imperial court is here, isn't it good?"

Master Zheng sighed again: "It's not as easy as you said. The Northwest City has changed its owner, and we have to deal with the new owner again. I heard that Hou Jiangjun has always been an upright man, so I'm afraid he won't be easy to get along with."

Madam Zheng sounded a little scared: "Anyway, it's good that nothing happens at home, but the family property doesn't matter."

"I know that you have asked everyone in the mansion to be careful. My father has decided to surrender as soon as the army enters the city. There may be a banquet for the soldiers. The people in the military camp are more or less ruffian, so don't attack the women in the mansion. "

Mrs. Zheng nodded.

On the second day, she began to strictly control the situation in the house, and did not forget to comfort Jiang Wanqing.

But she didn't expect that the army would enter the city so quickly.

The husband only talked about it for three days, and the northwest city changed hands.

Northwest City once again fell into the hands of the imperial court, and all forces began to take refuge again.

After all, they are merchants, so isn’t it normal for them to just sit on the sidelines?

Among them, the Zheng family anxiously received invitations from the military to pay their respects.

Master Zheng and Young Master Zheng were extremely nervous.

He quickly held a banquet, just to get along well with the other party and keep the Zheng family's foundation intact.

As the young lady of the mansion, Mrs. Zheng could not do anything but sit in the garden with Jiang Wanqing, while she had various embroidery needles and threads, and told her her inner tension.

"This time is different from usual. This time the army directly enters the city, and General Hou is even more difficult to get along with. I am always a little worried."

Seeing that she was worried, Jiang Wanqing quickly comforted her: "Don't worry, she is from the imperial court after all."

"Although we are members of the imperial court, our Zheng family also helped the rebels before, so we were afraid that they would turn over old scores."

As she was talking, she saw her husband and father-in-law smiling and leading a young man towards them. Their smiles were flattering, so they must be the generals who had sent their visiting cards.

"Why are they here? Aren't they entertaining guests in the lobby?"

Madam Zheng stood up quickly.

She couldn't hide now, so she had to greet them.

She didn't forget to protect Jiang Wanqing: "You will follow me and greet me later. After the greetings, I will take you away. Don't be afraid."

Jiang Wanqing nodded and stood behind Madam Zheng.

When the three of them came to them, Madam Zheng had heard the always majestic father-in-law introduce them with a smile: "This is my daughter-in-law and her good friend Madam Ji. What a coincidence, Yan Niang, this is Lord Ji, come and greet him."

She bowed quickly: "Hello Lord Ji."

After she finished speaking, she noticed from the corner of her eyes that Jiang Wanqing didn't move. She was anxious and looked back quickly, but saw that Jiang Wanqing was looking at the front with disbelief on her face.

When she looked up again, she saw that the young Master Ji, who needed to be flattered by her father-in-law and husband, was also full of joy.

He took a step forward and called out to Jiang Wanqing behind him:

"My wife."
