To support exiled officials, start by worshipping the God of Wealth

Zheng Rouer walked up to him and was slightly stunned. She couldn't tell whether the tears on his face were snow water or snow water. When she heard the man say "Hou Fu", she understood.

She asked, "You regret it, don't you?"

Chen Zhao nodded, listened to the laughter in the house, picked up the broom at the door and swept the snow away, but the haze in his heart could not be swept away.

"I regretted it a long time ago."

His heart seemed to be in an endless abyss, he didn't know where the hatred came from, nor where the love came from.

Zheng Rouer dragged the man to a secluded corner and asked sadly, "You still like Jiusu, right? Then go ahead, go to the house and apologize to her. Her mother is here, go and propose marriage, go ahead."

The woman kept slapping the man's arm.

But she didn't dare speak too loudly, for fear that the people in the room would hear, for fear that they would reconcile, and for fear that she would not see Chen Zhao again.

Chen Zhao frowned and said, "I'm already a bad person, why should I disgust others in front of them? Go home. You stay here every day, aren't you afraid of rumors?"

Zheng Rouer scratched her hair and said irritably, "I've already said it all."

Snowflakes fell on the two of them, but it wasn't cold in the narrow corridor. She rubbed her hands, slid down the wall to the ground, and sat down, feeling her butt was cold.

But I can calm my mind.

She said, "If I can't marry you, everyone will laugh at me and no one will want me. I'm afraid all that will be left for me is regret and sorrow."

Being told that you are dead is the most terrifying thing.

Chen Zhao said: "If you marry me, people will talk about you too."

"At least I have you." Zheng Rouer raised her head, feeling annoyed and angry, and looked at the man. She had always lived in this yard, being filial to Chen Zhao's mother and learning to please Chen Zhao.

But since some time ago, Chen Zhao hasn't touched her.

Even if she ran into his room at night.

He would rather freeze outside all day than stay with her.

"I miss you."

Chen Zhao let out a long sigh. The images of Jiusu and Bai Luoxue appeared in front of his eyes and gradually became blurry. He held Zheng Rouer's arm and pulled her up.

He asked, "Are you sure you want to follow me?"

"Sure!" Zheng Rouer raised her finger. "When I was a child, I swore that I would marry you when I grew up."

Hearing the sound of the door opening, Chen Zhao caught a glimpse of a beautiful figure out of the corner of his eye.

He put his arm around Zheng Rouer's waist and said, "Then let's get married."

Zheng Rouer excitedly hugged his strong waist and cried with sobs. Suddenly, she met Jiusu's indifferent eyes, and suddenly, her heart felt sour.

Amidst doubts and speculations, my heart became more and more uneasy.

"Let's go out together to see her off."

Chen Zhao held her hand, looked at Jiusu and said, "I'm getting married, will you come?"

Jiusu said: "Maybe I don't have time."

"You don't have to feel bad. It is said that a husband and wife will be bound by a hundred days of grace after being together for a day. What's more, you have waited for me for a year. I'm afraid we are not destined to be together." Chen Zhao said.

But his eyes were fixed on Jiusu.

However, the woman chuckled and didn't seem to take it to heart.

Jiusu said calmly: "Chen Zhao, don't go the wrong way again, take good care of your godmother, and don't mention the past anymore. It's boring to talk like this."

吁—

drive!

The carriage sped away, leaving a thin trail of silver on the snow.

Mrs. Lu placed her hand on her son's clenched fist and said, "Zhao'er, next spring, can you hunt a rabbit for me to eat?"

Chen Zhao agreed: "No problem, I will practice martial arts diligently these days, and when the snow melts, I will catch a rabbit for you."

He took a deep breath and almost fell into hatred.

I'd better go to town and buy a copy of the Heart Purification Mantra tomorrow.

Zheng Rouer grabbed his sleeve and asked anxiously, "Are you serious about marrying me?"

"Yes, it's true." Chen Zhao looked at the red couplet on the door and said, "After the New Year, I will go hunting and earn some money and then marry you. Tomorrow, I will go home with you."

He stepped onto the stairs, his pupils trembled slightly, and his memory went back to two years ago.

"Thank you for saving me. Let's get married. I will bring a matchmaker to your house tomorrow to propose marriage."

The girl's shy expression was the same as Zheng Rouer's.

Zheng Rouer shook her head and refused: "If I don't go home, do you want to change your mind and don't want to marry me?"

Chen Zhao said: "Marrying a wife and having children is a matter of parents' orders and matchmaker's words. You must get your parents' approval before you can proceed. We have gone too far during this period."

Mrs. Lu smiled and said, “I will go with you and apologize to Rouer’s parents.”

There was finally laughter in the yard.

Yi Hui saw everything: "Yuyu, what are you thinking about?"

Jiusu said, "One is willing to fight and the other is willing to be beaten. I don't know whether I should be happy or sad for Zheng Rouer. However, isn't this also a kind of wish fulfillment?"

Chen Wu's family had already moved away. Seeing how badly Chen Zhao was beaten, they decided to split up the family property. They gave up the house and the land and took away all the money in the house.

Zheng Rouer and Chen Zhao came to the factory.

Qian Junjie said with difficulty: "There are already a lot of people in the factory, and they are all on vacation these days. You should go home and wait for news. I will have someone notify you two after the New Year."

After closing the factory gate, he rode his horse back to the county town.

Chinese New Year!

The hot pot restaurant was packed and the arrangement was not carried out. Qian Junjie did not get to eat hot pot, but the Qian family arranged a mutton feast. After being discovered by Zhang Tu, he sat down shamelessly.

He took Cheng Yaner with him.

"Is Master Jiu coming too?"

"I have already sent someone to invite him." Master Qian was a little speechless. They were having a meal, so what was the county magistrate doing here?

Zhang Tu smiled and said, "Master Qian, you don't have to be polite. Please sit down. Master Jiu and I have a misunderstanding. I would like to borrow your land. When the time comes, please say something good for me, Master Qian."

Mrs. Qian and Luhe looked at each other.

Lu He was speechless. She heard that this corrupt official was responsible for the bandits' smooth entry into the county town, and now he was even licking their faces in their faces.

She rolled her eyes and cursed inwardly.

"There's something wrong."

Mrs. Qian patted the back of her hand and said, "Go and see if Miss Jiu is here?"

Luhe walked out of the courtyard and met Jiusu who had just entered the Qian Mansion.

She sighed and said, "The county magistrate is here and wants to see you. If you don't want to see him, just say you're out."

Jiusu asked: "Is Cheng Yan'er here?"

Lu He was stunned, she didn't know who Cheng Yan'er was.

"Well, he has a concubine who is pregnant."

"Then let's meet." Jiusu waved his hand, signaling Zitan to hand the gift to the housekeeper, "The fine salt from the factory is delicious for cooking."

Luhe thanked him and led the person into the main room.

Zhang Tu stood up and looked at the person in front of him, "Master Jiu, are you feeling better?"

Jiusu said calmly, "Thank you, County Magistrate, for your concern."

The mutton was delicious and the meat was well stewed.

The Qian family's two men came forward and got Zhang Tu drunk. Zhang Tu couldn't open his eyes. He raised his hand and wanted to say something to Jiusu, but in the end, he just burped.

He fell asleep on the table.

Cheng Yan'er felt uncomfortable when she smelled the alcohol, but she was just a concubine and couldn't leave. She supported the county magistrate, called him a few times, then raised her head and smiled apologetically.

"Sorry... Ugh!"

She covered her mouth, ran to the yard, and vomited into a wooden bucket.

Jiusu stood behind her and asked, "If she gave birth to a premature baby but a healthy, full-term baby, Zhang Tu would definitely be suspicious, right?"
