Chapter 288 An unexpected encounter
On that day, Su Cheng'an personally informed the group of women and children of the news.
When they learned that the children could all learn literature and martial arts, everyone cheered.
The child was dancing and laughing, but thinking of the hardships and tribulations along the way, the laughter gradually turned into crying, either of grievance or relief.
When the seven women heard that they could also be assigned tasks and receive money, their eyes instantly became red, and their surprise and emotion surged out like a bursting dam tide.
Yu, the leader, trembled slightly. She raised her hand and wiped away the tears that kept rolling down her eyes with the rough cuff of her sleeve. Her voice was choked with emotion.
"Thank you for your kindness, sir," they said eagerly and sincerely. "We will never forget it. We will do our best to do this job well, so as not to let your kindness go to waste."
The other women also echoed: "No matter what work we do in the future, we will do our best and will never let you down!"
No one knew who started it first, but everyone knelt down and kowtowed towards Su Chengan and Jin Chu.
Seeing this scene, Jin Chu's heart suddenly tightened.
She quickly stepped forward, stretched out her slender yet powerful hands, and held Yu's arms steadily. With gentle movements but unquestionable strength, she slowly lifted her up.
Then, Jin Chu turned around, his eyes gently yet firmly scanning the women on the ground, and said, "Everyone, please stand up quickly!"
After everyone stood up, she pointed at Su Cheng'an and said, "Since he brought you to the northern border, he naturally has to give you some explanations."
Jin Chu raised her voice slightly, a touch of respect and emotion in it. "Your husband and father died heroically defending the territory of Dajin and resisting foreign invasion. Each of them is a great hero!"
"As the descendants of heroes, you inherit their bravery and tenacity, and carry the glory and hope in their hearts. You are no less noble than anyone else!"
Her eyes swept over each woman and child one by one, giving them strength and courage.
"From now on in this northern territory, you will have a stable life. You will be able to live with dignity and live a wonderful life with your own brains and hands!"
These words made everyone's face flush, and the passion and expectations that had disappeared for a long time returned to everyone's body in the blink of an eye.
Everyone looked up at the young man and woman in the middle who seemed to be shining with light, and they once again felt the direction of persistence and protection in their hearts.
At noon, Jin Chu and Su Cheng'an were so enthusiastic that they stayed at the farm to have a farm meal with everyone, which was carefully prepared by several women from the Yu family.
During the banquet, Su Cheng'an personally found some children and asked them about their ideas. Some said they wanted to study literature, some said they wanted to study martial arts, and some were greedy and wanted to learn both.
The children talked more and more boldly, and gradually surrounded Jin Chu and Su Cheng'an.
In the end, it was Jin Chu who made the final decision: "Learn! We will learn both civil and military skills! After you find the direction you want to take, then make the final choice!"
When he returned to Shaoguangyuan in the afternoon, Jinchu didn't even bother to rest for a while, and went directly to Mancuixuan next door to find Huanyan.
Although the cosmetics shop in the North is now jointly opened by her and Huanyan, Jinchu has paid little attention to the shop due to her busy business in liquor and salt. Most of the specific matters are handled by Huanyan herself.
Since she was planning to bring the seven women into the workshop to work, she naturally had to seek Huanyan's opinion first.
When she heard that they were the orphans of the Northwest Army, Huanyan agreed without hesitation with tears in her eyes, and kept urging Jinchu to settle them all down quickly.
Jin Chu smiled and nodded, saying that they would wait for some time until the children were found, and then arrange for these mothers to come to work.
Huanyan then sighed and didn't mention it anymore.
Jin Chu knew that Huanyan must have been thinking of Ye Jinxuan who was far away in the Northwest Army, and that she truly resonated with this group of women and children and felt the same way.
After three or four days, Su Cheng'an brought eight people to Jinchu, four of whom were literary masters and the other four were martial arts masters.
Although Jin Chu didn't know much about civil and military affairs, she trusted Su Cheng'an, so that day the couple took the eight civil and military gentlemen and went directly to the farm outside the city.
Unexpectedly, as soon as I arrived at the farm, I met an uninvited guest - Chen Zhe.
Chen Zhe also came here today specifically to see these children.
Since he had just entered the Dingbei Palace a few days ago, he also needed to quickly adapt to and familiarize himself with the new environment.
When he learned that the prince had arranged for the women and children to recuperate on the farm outside the city, he temporarily gave up the idea of visiting the farm and concentrated on his own affairs.
After some time, Chen Zhe gradually adapted to the work and environment in Youyun City.
The weather was fine today and he happened to be on day off. Thinking of the group of children on the farm, Chen Zhe came here alone.
He arrived earlier than Jin Chu and Su Cheng'an. When he learned that the Crown Prince and the Crown Princess were coming together, Chen Zhe simply followed the group of children to welcome the two distinguished guests.
His appearance was very conspicuous among this group of women and children, and naturally he was also seen by the two people in the carriage.
Su Cheng'an pointed at him and introduced him to Jin Chu: "The forty-year-old scholar in the middle is Chen Zhe. I was planning to pick a time to introduce him to you, but I didn't expect to meet him here now."
While listening to him speak, Jin Chu looked towards Chen Zhe who was not far away, and did not forget to tease Su Chengan with a smile: "It is true that it is better to arrive at the right time than to arrive early! Now the prince can rest assured and does not have to find extra time."
As they were talking, the carriage had already approached. Before Jin Chu and Su Cheng'an got out of the carriage, a group of children surrounded them.
Especially the little girl named Cai'er, who ran the fastest and in the front.
Because Jinchu collected her apples last time, Caier felt that this fairy-like sister was gentle and friendly. When she learned that the person in the carriage was the fairy-like sister from last time, she was extremely happy.
This time she was no longer as timid as last time. She smiled broadly at Jin Chu and called out crisply, "Sister Noble."
Jinchu smiled and agreed, then said to Caier, "I ate your apples last time, so I brought you some food this time. It's in the carriage at the back. I'll have them brought to the house soon. You can all share it!"
When they heard there was something delicious to eat, the children smiled even more enthusiastically and headed in the direction Jin Chu said.
Chen Zhe looked at the children running away happily, and glanced at the Crown Princess in front of him without leaving a trace.
I've heard that although this princess comes from an ordinary family, she is very good at making money. The white salt and white wine sold in the North are all produced by her.
The prince allowed her to get involved in foreign affairs, and even set up a special position for her in the Northern Salt Administration, and she did it in an orderly and easy manner.
The princess treated her like her own daughter. After nearly a year of marriage, she still had not become pregnant. However, the princess, as her mother-in-law, had no complaints about her. It can be seen that this woman was quite good at managing the relationship with the inner house.
As for the prince's attitude towards her, there is no need to elaborate!
It is said that the prince had to go to great lengths to coax this girl back from the southern border.
Apart from anything else, he just took a quick glance at the way the Crown Prince looked at the Crown Princess, and he knew that the Crown Princess was the one the Crown Prince loved the most.
Chen Zhe couldn't help but secretly admire: "What a blessed woman!"
