1. Kangxi's Harem: ...
He looks about 80% like his past life, only taller and with more handsome features. I wonder if Jia Yue will recognize him at a glance.
Yin Zheng was unusually excited about their reunion.
When he got home, his mother was there. Seeing that he had come back alone, she said, "Sanzi went back? Why didn't you bring him back for dinner?"
"Yes, he went back; he had other things to do."
"Alright, by the way, your job is almost settled, and it's time to take care of your personal life too. You're already twenty. I didn't say anything when you were sent to the countryside, but now that you're back, how about I make some arrangements for you?"
Yin Zheng shook his head: "Mom, it's not necessary for now, I'm not in a hurry."
"How can we not be anxious? If you don't resolve your personal issues, even if your superiors appreciate you, they won't be willing to give you more responsibilities."
"Mom, I'll think about it carefully, but the situation changes every day these days, and we don't know who's behind the scenes. Let's talk about it later."
Jia Yue isn't in it, and Yin Zheng wouldn't be considering the issue now.
He understood that the current political environment was temporary, but it was hard to say when it would change.
He wasn't particularly interested in women, and women's status wasn't what it used to be. They could go out and about, so he needed to choose his partner carefully. It was difficult for an ordinary person to escape a report or a frame-up from their spouse.
The times are still changing and full of uncertainty. He had been thinking of taking things easy before considering marriage, but now that he knows Jiayue is here, his mind is at ease.
However, Liu Shan said that Jia Yue is only sixteen years old this year, which is a bit young, and she is not yet of marriageable age!
Hearing Yin Zheng say this, Yin's mother didn't say anything more. Yin Zheng has always been decisive since he was a child, and she is not the kind of person who wants to control everything about her son.
Furthermore, this involves couples turning against each other, sons-in-law denouncing their fathers-in-law, daughters-in-law reporting their parents-in-law, and children denouncing their parents...
Having seen so many things, Yin Zheng is only twenty years old; waiting another year or two won't hurt.
"I just wanted to talk to you, but we can't keep putting it off."
"Okay, Mom."
