A strong farm girl is busy getting rich

Chapter 287 Bringing Back Mrs. Zheng

Shen Qingqian and the educated youth took Han Qingshan all the way back to Tai'an Town. They first went to the county government to negotiate with County Magistrate Zhu, and then went directly to the gravel pit to pick up the person.

Shen Qingqian did not go in, he was escorted out by the guards.

Although these women were already in a miserable state when we saw them in the dilapidated temple, they were even more miserable now!

What Shen Qingqian didn't expect was that those women actually still remembered her!

Mrs. Zheng's hair had turned gray, and she looked much thinner than before. She was the first to ask, "Miss, why is it you?"

Shen Qingqian did not immediately explain their doubts, but just smiled and said: "From now on, you are free and don't have to stay here and suffer anymore.

Come back with me first. If you have any questions, we can talk about them after we get back."

Because they had met Shen Qingqian before, and Shen Qingqian had helped them before. So even though they were doubtful and wary, they still followed Shen Qingqian.

After returning to the villa, the educated youth took Han Qingshan to see Yingzi. Shen Qingqian did not rush to talk to Mrs. Zheng, but asked them to wash up first, and arranged for someone to make food for them, so that they could have a good rest for the night and talk tomorrow.

Anyway, as long as the person is brought back, he will be safe, so there is no rush to discuss things.

On the other side, the educated youth brought Han Qingshan to the door of Yingzi's room. The educated youth asked Han Qingshan to wait outside while she went in to talk to Yingzi first.

Yingzi is still in bed recovering from her injuries, so it would not be appropriate to bring a stranger in directly.

Yingzi was a little shocked when she heard the educated youth say that Han Qingshan came to see her.

"Has Vice General Han returned to Beijing?"

Zhiqing said, "Well, he came back with General Yang. He must have returned to Beijing to report after the battle. He heard that you were injured, so he insisted on following us to see you."

The educated youth paused and said, "Yingzi, Deputy General Han's feelings for you are known to everyone. I wonder what you think, do you want to accept him?"

Yingzi's cheeks became hot when she heard what the educated youth said. She could see what Han Qingshan was thinking, but she didn't know whether she should accept it.

She once liked Chen Shijun. But they were not meant to be together. From the day Chen Shijun got married, she completely let it go! Although it was painful at that time, she has already let it go now.

She knew that Han Qingshan was a good person, straightforward, upright, and someone worth relying on. However, she seemed to be afraid to open her heart to accept it.

But no matter what, she couldn't turn them away since they had come so far to see her.

She deliberately ignored the question from Zhiqing and just said, "Zhiqing, please let Deputy General Han in first!"

"Okay, I'll go right away."

The educated youth smiled and went out.

Yingzi quickly tidied her clothes, put on her shoes and got out of bed. Han Qingshan was about to come in, and she couldn't lie on the bed and talk to him!

"Miss Yingzi, I heard from Miss Shen that you were injured, so I came to see you. How are you now? Are you feeling better?"

Han Qingshan asked with concern as he walked into the room.

Yingzi was already sitting on a chair. Because of what the educated youth had just said, she felt a little embarrassed when she saw Han Qingshan.

"It's much better now. Isn't Deputy General Han busy?"

"I've been back in Beijing for a few days now, and I've almost finished everything I needed to do, so I'm not busy."

Han Qingshan smiled innocently, put the snack in his hand on the table next to Yingzi, and said, "I bought this in Beijing. Miss Yingzi, try it and see if it suits your taste."

Yingzi looked at the snack box. It was from Jingcheng Xiangsu Zhai. Shen Qingqian had bought it before and it tasted very good.

"Thank you, Vice General Han, for your thoughtfulness."

"As long as you like it, hehe."

After that, neither of them spoke anymore and the atmosphere became a little awkward for a while.

Yingzi raised her hand to push the hair that fell on her cheeks behind her ears. Han Qingshan sat on a stool, his hands on his legs, looking a little nervous.

After a while, Han Qingshan stood up and said, "Miss Yingzi, you should have a good rest. I... will be leaving first."

"it is good."

Yingzi whispered.

Han Qingshan walked to the door, turned around and said, "Miss Yingzi, I will come to see you tomorrow."

After saying that, without waiting for Yingzi to answer, he quickly opened the door and walked out.

Yingzi patted her hot cheeks and lay back down on the bed.

Early the next morning, Shen Qingqian came to the courtyard where the women of the Zheng family lived.

Shen Qingqian's villa was very large, with a total of twenty separate courtyards. Each courtyard had three main rooms, three side rooms on the east side, and a kitchen, dining room, and firewood room on the west side.

There were more than a dozen women in the Zheng family, and one courtyard was big enough for them to live in. Of course, even if there was no room, they would rather squeeze together than separate.

At this time, everyone had just finished breakfast and came out of the dining room.

Seeing Shen Qingqian coming, Mrs. Zheng invited her directly into the house where she lived.

Mrs. Zheng lived in the same room with Yan'er. She knew that Shen Qingqian came over to discuss something, so she asked Yan'er to stay in someone else's room first.

Shen Qingqian asked, "Madam and your family, are you used to living here?"

Madam Zheng said hurriedly, “Compared to the days we spent in the gravel pit, this place is like heaven, young lady.

Last time in the ruined temple, it was the girl who came to the rescue and we were saved; this time it was the girl who rescued us again. My entire Zheng family is very grateful to the girl.

But, I don’t know what the girl needs us to do?”

There is no free lunch in the world. Mrs. Zheng certainly understands this truth after living for half her life.

If Shen Qingqian was forced to help last time because Eunuch Qiao's men also threatened them, then this time, Shen Qingqian was helping on purpose!

After helping them so much, she naturally had something to ask for. So, Mrs. Zheng asked directly.

Shen Qingqian didn't beat around the bush and said, "I want a very important thing from Madam Zheng. I wonder if Madam Zheng is willing to give it to me?"

"Something very important?"

Mrs. Zheng thought about it for a moment and guessed something! However, she still asked, "I wonder what the young lady is talking about?"

"The letter that Eunuch Qiao wanted last time!"

Shen Qingqian said directly.

As expected! When Mrs. Zheng heard Shen Qingqian's words, her first reaction was to sigh in her heart.

However, she was from a big family after all, and although her heart was extremely complicated, she didn't show anything on her face, and she just said, "Can I ask who the girl is?"

Shen Qingqian said: "My name is Shen Qingqian. I used to be an ordinary peasant girl from Shenjia Village, Ping'an Town. More than a year ago, I started doing business and made a little money;

Half a year ago, because I donated more money and grain to the court, the emperor made me a county lady.

A month ago, I went to the northern border. By chance, I recaptured the lost Tongning City and was promoted to a fourth-rank general by the emperor.

Therefore, my current identity is General Qingyi."

Shen Qingqian told almost everything about his situation!

Mrs. Zheng was stunned when she heard it. She felt like what she was hearing was from a picture book!

But looking at Shen Qingqian's serious expression and clear eyes, she concluded that Shen Qingqian was telling the truth.
