Quick Wear: Everyone knows I am a good person

That is of course impossible.

Shu Jiao wanted to go out in such a cold weather, so Ji Hefu had no choice but to go along with her and arranged everything carefully, from the charcoal fire to the fruits.

That posture.

Even more attentive and meticulous than serving Emperor Kang Zheng.

On the day off, they both left in a carriage.

The hot spring villa in the suburbs was a reward from Emperor Kangzheng.

Upon hearing that the master was coming, the servants on the farm cleaned up the entire farm early.

As soon as the two of them entered, the whole village was warm.

The ground was a little muddy because the snow had melted.

Ji Hefu put the cloak on Shu Jiao's shoulders, stuffed a hand warmer into her hands, bent down and carried her in.

Shu Jiao lazily nestled in his arms, her eyes and eyebrows emitting a spring-like vitality, and she had an overbearing attitude, as if she was born to be served.

After entering the hot spring, her whole body seemed to relax and she let out a short sigh of comfort.

As her jade arms swung, her fingertips lightly touched the red plum petals that had just been scattered.

The room was filled with the faint scent of plum blossoms.

Ji Hefu then came in.

Shu Jiao leaned against the side, staring at him intently.

Seeing him take off his clothes, revealing his fierce and wild body, the corners of her lips couldn't help but curl up.

Ji Hefu also understood her.

The main thing is that Shu Jiao at this moment is really easy to understand, you can tell the color from her eyes at a glance.

He couldn't help but chuckle, but stood there motionless.

"Husband~"

Shu Jiao called him in a slightly urging and coquettish voice, "Come quickly."

"As the lady commands."

Ji Hefu responded to her with a smile and quickly walked to her side.

Seeing Shu Jiao taking advantage of him, he felt somewhat pleased in his heart——

All the hard work in the first half of my life was not in vain. I have built up a good body and my wife has taken pity on me.

The warm fingertips followed the water droplets and touched the bright red plum blossom.

The mist rising from the hot spring made people's eyes blurry, and they bumped into the hard stone wall in a daze, and suddenly felt some pain.

"Wow~"

The water is shaking and the waves are rippling.

The warmth of the hot spring flows into the limbs and bones that have been chilled by the wind, making it so comfortable that one wishes one could turn into spring water and merge into it, softening even the bones.

In the end, it was Ji Hefu who carried Shu Jiao out of the hot spring.

"If this gets known to others, be careful to report you."

Looking at the sky outside which was still bright, Shu Jiao teased Ji Hefu with a smile.

"It doesn't matter."

Ji Hefu was also happy, "As long as I can make Madam happy, it's worth being reported."

of course.

The most important thing is that what happens in this manor will not be leaked out, at most the emperor will know about it.

and then?

Emperor Kang Zheng used a trivial matter between the couple to pick on his confidant?

Is he also like the prince, poisoned and having a seizure?

After two days of trouble, Shu Jiao finally suggested leaving.

"I will be on duty the day after tomorrow, why don't you stay a little longer, Madam?"

Ji Hefu asked with a smile.

"What do you say?"

Shu Jiao glanced at him and gently twisted his waist, "It seems that the imperial physician's prescription is still too effective. You should eat less."

Ji He knelt down but smiled without saying a word.

joke.

He spent a huge amount of money to have a royal physician tailor-make that medicine for him, and it was a good remedy with no side effects!

After eating for so many days, I can barely beat my wife. If I eat less, won’t I lose to my wife again?

He doesn't want it.

The two of them got into the carriage, and the warm fragrance made them feel drowsy.

Shu Jiao leaned in Ji Hefu's arms, closed her eyes and dozed off.

When we were about to enter Beijing, we suddenly heard a loud cry.

"Manager, please don't take my sister away..."

"Master Steward!"

"My sister won't marry. She won't marry! I will definitely find a way to get the money for you..."

The thinly clothed boy, shivering from the cold, with red eyes, tightly held a young girl with a childish face, no more than thirteen or fourteen years old.

The little girl also cried miserably and held the boy's hand tightly.

Next to him, a steward dressed in gorgeous clothes and with a plump figure crossed his arms and frowned, "Why are you crying? Your sister was agreed by your parents to be my master's concubine."

"It's written clearly in black and white."

"What are you still standing there for? Pull them apart. If we delay the adults' wedding night, how can we suffer the consequences?"

As soon as these words were spoken, several servants nearby hurriedly separated the two.

mercy?

Hey ~

What if we pity them? It's even worse if we can't deliver the job!

"release!"

The servant said.

But the boy and the girl were holding each other so tightly that the servant had no choice but to kick the boy hard.

They didn't dare to do anything to the little girl.

If they destroy that beautiful appearance, they will be in big trouble.

Ji Hefu in the carriage didn't even move his eyes during this farce. He just turned slightly to block the fresh cold wind blowing in from the slightly opened gap.

awful?

There are many miserable people in this world.

His compassion had long been worn away by the sufferings of the first half of his life.

Only Shu Jiao, who was half asleep in his arms, opened her eyes and rubbed his chest gently.

"Husband~ the noise is giving me a headache."

There was a hint of irritability in the unclear voice, which sounded like coquetry, but also like a command.

Ji Hefu's eyes turned slightly, "Let's go and take a look."

"Yes."

The servant outside responded and the carriage stopped.

"what happened?"

The attendant said loudly: "Which family are you from? How dare you seize a commoner girl in broad daylight?"

"I am the manager of the residence of Mr. Zeng, the Left Vice Minister of the Ministry of Works."

This manager is not reckless.

Seeing someone trying to stop him, he would not act too arrogantly before finding out the details.

Then he explained: "We are not forcibly seizing women."

"This girl's parents have made an agreement with my master. They accepted the betrothal money from my master and wanted to marry this girl to my master."

"This is a legal and reasonable matter. I hope this gentleman will not meddle in other people's business."

In layman's terms.

These days, marriages are decided by parents and matchmakers.

The Zeng family gave the money, no matter whether it was a betrothal fee or a marital marriage fee, as long as the girl's parents agreed and accepted the money, the girl would become the Zeng family's concubine.

No matter who comes, the Zeng family is right.

"Since the parents agreed," the attendant frowned, "why did it become like this?"

"This young master~"

Then the manager needs to explain again.

But before he could finish, the young man beside him knelt down in front of the carriage with a plop, "Sir! I am Fang Zhiwen, and I hope you can make a decision for my family!"

"He lied!"

"It was clearly someone from the Zeng Mansion who beat up my parents and accused them of hurting someone from their mansion, and they demanded a huge amount of compensation from my family!"

"My family couldn't afford it, so the Zeng family asked my family to marry my sister off. Otherwise, they would report it to the authorities..."

Fang Zhiwen spoke hurriedly, his eyes full of pleading as he looked into the closed carriage.

Report to the official!

Their family were all poor people and they didn't even know which way the government door faced.

If they went in, with just a few words from the Zeng family, how could their family come out alive?

My parents had no choice but to send my sister away.

He refused.

He has found a way to make a lot of money these days. He just needs to be given a little more time.

Three days.

Three days is enough!

He could collect the money and compensate the Zeng family, and also save his sister.
