The beginning of the counterattack! The time-traveling boss is famous in Beijing

County Magistrate Jiang felt guilty towards his daughter.

Jiang Tang was only ten years old when he followed his mother to Taihe County. This place was not as prosperous and lively as the capital, and the living conditions were relatively simple.

When I was in the capital, I was always surrounded by a group of friends of the same age.

But when I arrived in Taihe County, I could only live with my parents, and my social circle became much narrower.

County Magistrate Jiang was busy with official duties every day. Although Jiang Tang had the company of Mrs. Jiang during his growth, he lacked communication and interaction with people of the same age, which was a pity.

Seeing that his daughter got along well with Qin Ruo, he naturally agreed to let his daughter stay for a few days.

There are many things about Qin Ruo that are worth learning for her daughter, and this is a good opportunity to let her experience life in the country.

Jiang Tang was overjoyed when he heard that his father agreed: "Thank you, father. Don't worry. I will be good and will not cause any trouble to Sister A Ruo and Grandma Qin."

"That's fine. Daddy will send someone to pick you up in a few days."

After County Magistrate Jiang finished speaking, he bowed to Old Lady Qin and the Qin Ruo family and said, "My Lady, Old Lady Qin, I'm afraid my Tang'er will disturb your peace these days. Please bear with me."

"Lord Jiang, you are too polite. I just like my home to be a little more lively. I would be very happy to have this child stay here." Old Mrs. Qin smiled and waved to County Magistrate Jiang.

Qin Ruo stood beside them with a smile on her face: "Master Jiang, Madam Jiang, don't worry, I will definitely take good care of Sister Xiaotang."

Since County Magistrate Jiang had asked his daughter to stay, Mrs. Jiang would not refuse her husband's request.

Besides, seeing her daughter's happy face, she couldn't bear to refuse her daughter's request, so she gave her a few more instructions before leaving with County Magistrate Jiang.

On the way back, County Magistrate Jiang was thinking about the sweet potato harvest.

Mrs. Jiang suddenly thought of her son who stayed in Beijing, and her image of the dignified Qin Ruo flashed back to her mind.

After a moment, she suddenly spoke cautiously, "Master, Princess Ning'an seems to be sixteen this year, right?"

County Magistrate Jiang nodded and said, "Yes, if I remember correctly, she should be sixteen. She is the twin brother of the Qin family's eldest son. Madam, why do you suddenly ask this question?"

"Princess Ning'an is only sixteen years old, but she is so smart, which is really rare. Although this is the first time I met that girl, I like her very much. I have never seen our Tang'er get along so well with any girl in Beijing." Mrs. Jiang's eyes were full of tenderness when she mentioned her daughter.

Upon hearing this, County Magistrate Jiang laughed and took over what Mrs. Jiang said.

"Princess Ning'an is a girl with a heart full of love. Not to mention that our Tang'er likes her, even the eldest princess treats Princess Ning'an with great love. I have never seen the eldest princess treat a girl so attentively. Even the princesses in the palace may not be so favored by the eldest princess."

Magistrate Jiang spoke the latter sentence in a low voice.

Although the eldest princess and the current emperor are not from the same mother, they had a very good relationship in the past.

The current emperor was able to ascend to the throne thanks to her, the royal sister.

Nowadays, although the eldest princess is not in the capital, she holds an extraordinary status in the emperor's mind.

Among the concubines and even the princes in the palace, who wouldn't respectfully call the eldest princess "Imperial Aunt" when seeing her?

Even the queen, the mistress of the six palaces, had to be courteous to the eldest princess.

The eldest princess had no children, and the ladies of the palaces had tried their best to make their children closer to the eldest princess. Unfortunately, except for her nephew Si Heng, no one caught her eye.

On the contrary, when he arrived in Taihe County, he treated Qin Ruo, a country girl, differently.

"Madam, it's a good thing for our Tang'er to interact more with Princess Ning'an. You don't have to worry. Although Princess Ning'an was born in the countryside, her character and education are excellent, and she has great ambitions. She is definitely not an ordinary person. If our Tang'er can learn a little bit from her, he will definitely benefit a lot in the future."

County Magistrate Jiang thought that his wife was worried about his daughter who was staying as a guest at the Qin family, so he made a special explanation.

After saying this, he took Madam Jiang's hand and comforted her in a gentle voice.

Little did she know that what Mrs. Jiang was thinking now was completely different from what County Magistrate Jiang said.

Madam Jiang glared at Magistrate Jiang in a reproachful manner: "I naturally trust the character of Princess Ning'an. What I want to say is that our Aning is already twenty-one years old. We have been in Taihe County for these years, and his marriage has not been arranged. Although Princess Ning'an is sixteen years old, she has not yet arranged a marriage. Look, our Aning and Princess Ning'an..."

"Madam, don't think about this! Put away those unrealistic ideas in your mind." County Magistrate Jiang was so frightened that he broke out in a cold sweat and quickly reached out to cover his wife's mouth.

Only then did he realize that after all the fuss, it turned out that this was what his wife was thinking about.

It would be fine if others didn't know, but County Magistrate Jiang himself knew it very well.

Although her own son is not bad, with the Ninth Prince already here, how could Princess Ning'an get her own son's turn?

Think about it, when Zhang, the head of Fumanlou, and his gang of bullies were dealt with by the Ninth Prince himself.

The Ninth Prince took action and uncovered all the details of Zhang's gang's ancestors going back eighteen generations.

He only figured it out later that the Ninth Prince took action not because he saw injustice, but because he was targeting Qin Ruo, who had bought the restaurant in the first place.

The Ninth Prince is twenty years old this year and still unmarried. There has been no news of him dating any woman over the years.

Why did he happen to arrive in Taihe County and hang around Qin Ruo all day long?

The last time when Lord Pan and his party came down from the mountain, the Ninth Prince came to see Lord Pan and me specifically to remind us not to cause trouble for Qin Ruo.

Wherever Qin Ruo appears, the figure of the Ninth Prince can basically be seen.

Who has ever seen the Ninth Prince in the capital, who is known for being unruly and doing things based on his mood, being so attentive to a woman?

In addition, Qin Ruo was conferred the title of princess. Based on her understanding of the current emperor's style of doing things, she knew that the Ninth Prince was definitely responsible for this.

Now look at it, the Ninth Prince’s house is built next to the Qin family. Isn’t it just the case that whoever is close to the water gets the moon first?

The Ninth Prince's feelings towards Qin Ruo have long been obvious.

His own wife actually wanted to pair up his son with Princess Ning'an. How could the Jiang family even think of this?

"Master, why is that? Our Ning'er is still unmarried, and Princess Ning'an has not been engaged either. The two are only a few years apart in age, so how can they not be suitable? Besides, if they are really destined to be married, she and our Tang'er have similar interests, and the two sisters-in-law will definitely get along well in the future. If you say that our family is too high to marry a princess, I admit that. But our Jiang family has a good background. Although we are not a prominent and wealthy family, we are also a family of scholars and officials, so we can be considered a good match."

Seeing her husband's intense reaction, Mrs. Jiang was very puzzled. She pushed away County Magistrate Jiang's hand with a resentful look on her face.

Qin Ruo is not only smart, but also beautiful. Madam Jiang really wants Qin Ruo to be her daughter-in-law.

County Magistrate Jiang looked helpless, so he had to lean over and whisper a few words into Madam Jiang's ear.

Upon hearing Magistrate Jiang's guess, Mrs. Jiang was shocked at first, and then she instantly wilted like an eggplant hit by frost.

County Magistrate Jiang's words completely extinguished the thought that had just occurred to her.

After all, he and that girl were not destined to be a mother-in-law and daughter-in-law relationship.
