His colleague called him twice, and Jiang Zhe suddenly came back to his senses.
"What's wrong?"
"I see that you have been restless, but you have been too busy with official duties recently. Why don't you go home and rest after dinner? I will help with today's official duties."
His colleagues wanted to please him, but now that he was in a daze, they wanted to help him with his work, flatter him, and settle down with him.
"No, I'll just rest for a while."
Jiang Zhe refused, and his colleagues thought he was tired. In fact, only he knew that he was in a trance when he saw the young lady by the window.
The young lady's features are very similar to those of the young eldest princess, but if you look closely, you can see the difference. This young lady is delicate and charming, while the eldest princess is bright and bold. The two are only somewhat similar, but this similarity evokes
Jiang Zhe’s distant memory.
Jiang Zhe and the eldest princess also had feelings for each other when they were newly married. The eldest princess had a stunning appearance and a distinguished status. She had many suitors in the capital, but in the end he was the one who won her over. Jiang Zhe was so proud that he held the eldest princess in his hands and doted on her.
.
I just don't know when their feelings gradually changed.
The eldest princess has a strong temper and is obsessed with power. What he likes is a soft and soft wife who is willing to wash his hands and make soup for him. The eldest princess has been pampered since she was a child.
Not even a cup of hot tea was brought to him.
Jiang Zhe's heart was full of machismo. After the period of passionate love, he couldn't stand the eldest princess's strong will. The red roses he once happily married became mosquito blood on the tent. He began to alienate the eldest princess and took advantage of the opportunity to fight.
I went to the border and never wanted to go home again.
Later, when he met Zhao Waner, he plunged into Wenwen Township and completely forgot about the eldest princess.
Now that he saw the young lady who looked like the eldest princess, Jiang Zhe seemed to have regained his original excitement. He and Linlang had also been in love.
"Whose family do these people belong to?"
Jiang Zhe pointed his eyes at the next table and asked. The waiter looked at him and smiled back at him.
"This is the husband of the newly wealthy Xu family in the capital. The two outstanding-looking ones are their friends. I don't know who the younger one is."
Shen Yanqing and Jiang Miao were both here for the first time. With their appearance, the waiter would never forget them after seeing them once, but he had never seen them in the capital before, so the waiter didn't know who they were.
"Well, go get busy."
Seeing that he couldn't get anything out of the question, Jiang Zhe didn't ask any more. He just felt like a kitten was scratching him, itching and feeling something was wrong.
"Consort Jiang wants to know their identities, why not call them over and ask?"
Jiang Zhe has a distinguished status, and there are few people in the capital who don't give him face. It's not a matter of just saying a few words for him to get to know someone.
"Need not."
Jiang Zhe refused. For some reason, he didn't want to use his power in front of this young lady, as if it scared him that he would regret it.
"Daddy!"
Jiang Ru came in through the door with her maid. As soon as she entered, she saw Jiang Zhe in the lobby.
She and Liu Ruyan parted ways as soon as they left Yugui Fong. Liu Ruyan was slapped in the face by Shen Yanqing and Jiang Miao today. She lost both face and face. Her face was so dark that it could drip ink. She could no longer maintain the dignity of a noble girl.
, took Xiu'er and returned home.
Jiang Ru originally wanted to go home directly, but when she walked to Linjiang Tower, she saw the Jiang family's carriage at the door. She guessed that Jiang Zhe was in the restaurant, so she came in with her maid.
"Why are Ruer here?"
Jiang Zhe was suddenly stopped by his daughter and asked in confusion.
"When I saw Daddy's carriage while shopping, Ru'er wanted to come and have a meal. Daddy wouldn't welcome Ru'er, right?"
She pouted, looking like a delicate little lady. After all, she was his beloved daughter. Jiang Zhe smiled and asked the waiter to buy a pair of bowls and chopsticks.
"How come? Let's see what you want to eat and order it yourself."
"Hey, thank you, daddy."
Jiang Rufu bowed and sat down next to Jiang Zhe.
Jiang Miao and others were sitting very close to them, and Jiang Ru's voice was clear and did not lower her voice. Jiang Miao felt that her voice was familiar, so she turned around and met Jiang Ru's eyes. .
"Hey, isn't this Mrs. Shen? We just separated and met again."
Jiang Miao made Liu Ruyan half-dead and humiliated her in Yugui Fong. Jiang Ru was happy in her heart. Although she didn't want to see Jiang Miao, she gave her a Good look.
Jiang Miao nodded slightly, then turned around. This little lady has a delicate temperament. She cheated the heroine out of five hundred taels of silver before. She doesn't seem to be easy to get along with. She'd better stay away.
"Ru'er knows the people at that table?"
Jiang Zhe saw Jiang Ru greeting Jiang Miao, and his thoughts became more vivid.
"Dad doesn't know, but she is the wife of Shen Yanqing, the magistrate of Zhenjiang Prefecture. Well, the man next to her is Shen Yanqing."
On the day Shen Yanqing presented the corn, Jiang Zhe reported illness and did not go to court, so he did not recognize Shen Yanqing. He had only heard of his name for a long time, but he did not expect to bump into him at Linjiang Tower, let alone his wife and the eldest princess. There is still a bit of a resemblance to him when he was young.
"It's him..." No wonder he had never seen this couple in the capital.
Jiang Zhe was so absorbed in eating this meal that he kept looking at Jiang Miao's table from the corner of his eye. Even Jiang Ru could see his abnormality.
"Dad, are you okay?"
"Oh, it's okay. You have a good meal and let me order what you want."
"Okay." Jiang Ru agreed hesitantly. His father's eyes were already on the table next to him, so saying that he was fine was not very convincing.
Jiang Miao was full, and Shen Yanqing kept feeding her. The food in Linjiang Restaurant tasted really good, so she ate too much without realizing it.
"Don't eat. I'm already full. If I eat any more, my stomach will explode."
Shen Yanqing wanted to pick up some food for her, but Jiang Miao was so frightened that she quickly refused. Shen Yanqing looked at her belly, which was obviously still slender and flat, but she looked like she had eaten too much. Miaoya was just too thin, but Jiang Miao didn't want to He couldn't force himself to eat any more, so he ate the rest of the food by himself.
"Let's go for a walk by the river and refresh ourselves."
Jiang Miao looked at the scenery outside. The breeze was blowing on her face, the fragrance of flowers was pleasant, and there were several cruise ships in the river. Jiang Miao was moved.
"Okay, you go first, I'll pay the bill."
Xu Ziwen was also a fun-loving person, and Jiang Miao's idea was exactly what he wanted. He immediately stood up from the chair and went to the counter to pay the bill.
Jiang Miao carried Xu Zilan out, and Shen Yanqing followed them, like a flower protector, but his eyes stayed on their intertwined arms, and his heart was filled with sour bubbles, and he wanted to pull Jiang Miao over and hug him. Own.
Jiang Zhe had been paying attention to them. As soon as Jiang Miao moved, he stood up immediately and took two quick steps to reach them.
"Mrs. Shen, please forgive me for asking you a question. Are your biological parents still alive?"
