Shen Yingxue didn't expect to meet Guo Zhao in Zhenjiang Mansion. The two hadn't seen each other for more than a month. Guo Zhao was more solemn than the last time they met. His whole face was expressionless. When he saw Shen Yingxue, he just nodded slightly. .
It's just that Shen Yingxue didn't notice the undercurrent in his lowered eyes, and all the emotions were hidden underneath.
Shen Yingxue felt his cold face, and her heart twitched. She regretted that she had spoken too quickly. Guo Zhao didn't look like he wanted to greet her at all. Shen Yingxue lowered her head and stood behind Jiang Miao. Since If Guo Zhao doesn't want to see her, then she won't bother him.
No one else noticed the confrontation between the two. Jiang Miao and Shen Yanqing were both happy about the arrival of Mrs. Zhang and others.
"Mom and Dad, may everything go well on your way."
Jiang Miao helped Mrs. Zhang, who was traveling far away for the first time. Although Furong Town was only a day's drive from Zhenjiang Prefecture, Mrs. Zhang still felt dizzy and exhausted while riding in the car.
"Don't mention it. This carriage is not as comfortable as the ox-cart. It's almost suffocating the old lady..."
"Hey, you won't have a happy life. If you ride in a bullock cart, your body will fall apart. Thanks to Xiao Guo's smooth driving this time, you will have to suffer even more if someone else drives the cart!"
Although Father Shen was tired from the car ride, he could not lose his momentum in front of Mrs. Zhang and endured the pain all over his body and said.
Speaking of Xiao Guo who was driving the car, Mrs. Zhang glanced at Guo Zhao who was walking towards Shen Yingxue.
"Yes, thanks to Xiao Guo, we have avoided a lot of trouble along the way."
The more Mrs. Zhang looks at Guo Zhao, the more she likes him. She used to think that he was hard to get along with with his cold face, but in fact he is a warm-hearted person. He has taken care of the couple along the way, and he is even more considerate than Shen Laoer, his son.
Now Guo Zhao is standing next to Shen Yingxue. Not to mention, they really look like a couple. Mrs. Zhang squinted her eyes with a look of relief. She wonders if Xiao Guo has a wife in his family. If not, I wonder if he will fall in love with Shen Ying. Snow.
Mrs. Zhang thought a lot in her mind, but her face remained calm, but she looked at Guo Zhao as if she were a junior in her family.
Guo Zhao had just moved to Shen Yingxue. He hadn't seen her for more than a month. His longing for her had broken through. He wished he could stay with her and never be separated again. Suddenly he was called by Mrs. Zhang and Father Shen. Guo Zhao's expression For a moment, I thought my little thoughts had been discovered.
"This is what juniors should do."
Guo Zhao's voice rang in her ears. Shen Yingxue grabbed the corner of her clothes and lowered her head. She didn't know what kind of ecstasy soup this man poured into her parents, so that her mother was praising him now. This man was the best at it. Lie.
"Why did Mr. Guo come to Zhenjiang Mansion?"
Jiang Miao knew that Guo Zhao was the head catcher of Furong Town. He had an official position and could not leave the city without orders. If it was just to send the Shen family to Zhenjiang Mansion, that would not be an excuse.
After all, the two families are not related. Although Guo Zhao was kind to Zhou Ling and Daya for saving their lives, the Shen family had already repaid the kindness and had no further contact with them.
Shen Yingxue raised her ears. She also wanted to know the purpose of Guo Zhao's arrival. Shen Yingxue tightened her clothes. Fortunately, she lowered her head, otherwise all the thoughts in her heart would be shown on her face.
Guo Zhao glanced at her out of the corner of his eye and saw Shen Yingxue lowering her head and ignoring him, feeling full of disappointment.
"Guo was ordered to deliver supplies to Zhenjiang Prefecture. I happened to meet everyone from the Shen family on the way, so we went together. Guo was still disturbing us along the way."
Guo Zhao replied in a deep voice, but what he didn't say was that he had won this job, not just to deliver supplies, but also to see Shen Yingxue, but he couldn't tell the real purpose.
Next to her, Shen Yingxue let go of her wrinkled clothes and gave a self-deprecating smile. She thought Guo Zhao was here to see her. Shen Yingxue despised herself in her heart. She was the one who wanted to break up with her in the first place. Guo Zhao Zhao did it, but she felt disappointed and had longing in her heart.
"Mr. Guo, you're welcome. Let's rest first. I've already asked people to prepare hot soup and meals. It's been a hard journey all the way."
Shen Yanqing saw that the faces of several people were exhausted, so he led everyone into the city to rest.
"I heard that Miaiya has opened a food court, which is full of food we have never seen before..."
Mrs. Zhang was dazzled when she entered the city. Zhenjiang Prefecture is much larger than Furong Town. The streets in the city are wide and clean. The people all have smiles on their faces. Life seems very comfortable at first glance. It doesn't look like they have just suffered a disaster.
With such a big town under the jurisdiction of Shen Yanqing, Mrs. Zhang and Yourong Yan felt like an old lady in their hearts.
"Yes, I will take you there when mother has rested."
"well."
Mrs. Zhang is not a foodie, but this food court was opened by Jiang Miao and Shen Yanqing, so it certainly has a different status in her heart.
"We are here to harvest crops for the third daughter-in-law, and you only think about eating them."
After the third room and the eldest room left, Father Shen and Mrs. Zhang were used to quarreling at home, but Mrs. Zhang hadn't said anything yet, and Father Shen was looking for trouble again.
Mrs. Zhang glared at him, "Can you care if Mia Ya is willing to take me to eat? Besides, just having a meal will delay the harvest of crops."
Father Shen was scolded so much that he shut up and stopped talking.
There was a suppressed smile on Jiang Miao's face. Father Shen used to be taciturn, but now that they haven't seen each other for a long time, he seemed to be a different person. However, she didn't look really angry when she saw Mrs. Zhang. She said she was always here to keep company. This might be Their unique way of getting along.
Besides, the harvesting of crops was just an excuse for Jiang Miao to lure them to Zhenjiang Mansion. How could she really make the two old people work?
"Don't worry about the crops. Just eat and drink well when your parents are here."
"The second brother said that you planted a rare crop. What is it? Tell your mother."
Mrs. Zhang is full of curiosity. She is a farmer. Apart from wheat, millet and rice, she has never seen anything else that can be used as staple food.
"It's corn. I just broke some of it this morning and went back to cook it for my mother."
Jiang Miao then ordered Li Biao, "Go to the field and pick a few more watermelons. Make sure the fruit has a curved stem and you can hear a thumping vibration when you knock it. Such melons are the sweetest."
"Okay!"
After hearing this, Li Biao happily went to the fields. This was a good job. Li Biao had been thinking about it since the last time he ate watermelon. But he knew that watermelon was precious and his wife wanted to keep it and sell it for money. Now she is the old lady. Only when they come, the lady is willing to take it out to eat, and they can also take advantage of it.
Mrs. Zhang was supported by Jiang Miao as she walked to the county government office. At this moment, Jiang Miao mentioned two fresh crops that she had never heard of. Mrs. Zhang was full of curiosity and followed her to the city with a confused look. She already knew what this fresh crop was.
Shen Yanqing walked behind everyone. She was in a low mood and couldn't cheer up. Guo Zhao followed her, staring at her bun, and moved over little by little until their clothes touched.
