Chapter 303 Han Jingyi
"Husband, aren't we going in?"
Han Jingyi waited in the carriage for a long time but Zhou Yanxiu didn't come to pick her up, so she shouted outside.
Cui Qingyi was attracted by the sound and looked towards the Zhou Mansion's carriage.
Zhou Yanxiu personally stepped forward and opened the car curtain, reaching one hand into the car. The next second, a jade-white hand reached out, holding the man's arm.
Han Jingyi had been in a relationship with Cui Qingyi for a long time, but she never had the chance to meet her in person. This time, she pestered Zhou Yanxiu for a long time before she persuaded him to take her out to visit Cui Qingyi.
She could have come by herself, but she was afraid that the other party would feel offended since she had no relatives or friends there.
Cui Qingyi raised her eyebrows in surprise at Zhou Yanxiu's cautious movements. After not seeing him for many years, she didn't expect that Zhou Yanxiu had such a gentle and considerate side.
Han Jingyi's eyes fell on Cui Qingyi almost as soon as she got off the car. She had sent people to inquire that only the Dongping County Master and his family had stayed at the post station in recent days, and the woman standing at the door of the post station at this moment completely matched her imagination of Cui Qingyi.
Without waiting for Zhou Yanxiu to introduce himself, Han Jingyi shook off his hand and walked towards Cui Qingyi: "This must be the Princess of Dongping County, right? I pay my respects to her."
Although Han Jingyi had an imperial decree, her rank was not as high as that of the county lord, so she should be the first to greet the emperor when they met for the first time.
Cui Qingyi quickly reached out her hand to support him: "Mrs. Zhou, nice to meet you."
Han Jingyi was happy to feel the county lord's gentle attitude towards her. When she came, she was a little worried that Cui Qingyi would be angry with her because Zhou Yanxiu gave her Luhua Town as a fiefdom. However, she did not expect that the county lord was as magnanimous as the rumors said, and did not bear any grudges at all.
Han Jingyi automatically ignored Cui Qingyi's disregard for Zhou Yanxiu and was only focused on talking to her idol.
People's personalities are really all kinds of weird. Logically speaking, the environment where Han Jingyi was born and raised was rather serious and formal. Han Jingyi's father and brother, Lord Han and Little Lord Han, were also people who wore the word "majesty" on their faces. But Han Jingyi was an exception in the Han family.
She is lively and active, sincere and enthusiastic, and is the darling of everyone in the Han family. However, such a darling accidentally becomes Zhou Yanxiu's second wife.
Zhou Yanxiu saw the dissatisfaction of the Han family's elders and children, and also knew how much grievance Han Jingyi had suffered by marrying him, so he actually cared for and indulged his young wife over the years.
Therefore, Han Jingyi's temper has not only not been restrained over the years, but has become more like a child. It is precisely because of this that the Han family is slowly letting go of their grudge against Zhou Yanxiu.
Cui Qingyi watched as the other person grabbed her sleeve and then slowly and unnoticeably held her wrist. She felt a little torn in her heart. After all, she really couldn't imagine that Zhou Yanxiu's wife would be such a person.
What a pity! Zhou Yanxiu should be the dean of studies.
Han Jingyi was very curious about Cui Qingyi's affairs, especially how she turned Luhua Town, a remote and backward town, into a prosperous place that is now famous throughout Dajin. She had many speculations.
Han Jingyi asked Cui Qingyi and she answered that these things were not really an absolute secret nowadays.
Although they had just met today, the two of them were able to sit together and have a great chat. Zhou Yanxiu wanted to chat with Cui Qingyi about the current development of Dongping County, but neither of them took him seriously. Zhou Yanxiu sat for a while and then left in disappointment.
Only after she was sure that the person had disappeared did Han Jingyi cover her lips and say embarrassedly, "Don't blame me, County Master. I scolded him for the Luhua Town incident back then."
Han Jingyi is a few years younger than Cui Qingyi. Even though she has been married for many years, she still has the delicate demeanor of a little girl. Cui Qingyi finds her look so cute when she carefully tries to make amends for Zhou Yanxiu.
He jokingly said, "Master Zhou is so lucky."
Pure old cow eating young grass!
Han Jingyi wasn't the least bit modest about Zhou Yanxiu being lucky enough to marry her: "Of course not. If it weren't for His Majesty granting the marriage, my father definitely wouldn't have married me to him."
Even after the imperial decree granting the marriage came, her father regretted many times that he had not arranged a marriage for her earlier.
Han Jingyi has a lot of wild ideas in his mind and is the first person Cui Qingyi has ever seen in ancient times with a very rich imagination.
Looking at the sparkling stars in her eyes, Cui Qingyi patiently answered her questions, and the two quickly became good friends who could talk about anything within an afternoon.
If Zhou Yanxiu hadn't finished his official duties and came to pick her up, Han Jingyi would have even wanted to stay at the post station to have dinner with Cui Qingyi, and by the way, she also wanted to meet the county lady's twin daughters. Twins, this was the first time she had seen them in her life.
Zhou Yanxiu had no choice but to resort to his ultimate move: "Before you left, you promised to bring back some cakes from Lily House for Xiaobao. If you stay any longer, they'll be sold out."
Han Jingyi was so happy chatting that she not only forgot her husband Zhou Yanxiu, but also forgot about her own baby son. Only when Zhou Yanxiu reminded her did she remember her little ancestor who loved to eat.
After leaving the house and getting on the carriage, he did not forget to talk to Cui Qingyi: "County Lady, can I come visit you again another day?"
Cui Qingyi turned to look at Zhou Yanxiu, and sure enough, she saw that his face was rather dark. She readily agreed, "If Jingyi is willing to come, I welcome her."
In the next few days, Han Jingyi would indeed go to the post station to talk to Cui Qingyi from time to time, and sometimes she would bring her own little fat boy who had just turned four years old.
When Cui Qingyi saw Han Jingyi and Zhou Yanxiu's son for the first time, she almost couldn't control her expression. Even Yun Shu, whose mouth was faster than his brain, was covered by her mouth.
This child was really too fat. The flesh on his face trembled when he moved, and his eyes were squeezed by the flesh to a slit.
Maybe he had heard his mother talk about it at home, so he rushed over to Cui Qingyi as soon as he saw her, and gently hugged Cui Qingyi's calves. He was actually a gentle little fat boy.
"Auntie County Master, the beef jerky you sell is delicious. Xiaobao likes it."
Xiaobao is the nickname Han Jingyi gave to her son. The little fat boy's real name is Zhou Chengze.
Cui Qingyi reached out and touched the little guy's chubby face: "Even if you like it, eat less. It's hard to digest."
Zhou Chengze nodded. He had many other culinary avenues, and beef jerky was just a snack.
The two parents introduced the children to each other. Zhou Chengze was able to easily tell which was Yunjuan and which was Yunshu when faced with two identical faces.
You have to know that although the two children are different in height, they look exactly the same. Adults can easily tell who is who, but it is not easy for children who have seen them to tell them apart.
Although Zhou Chengze is fat, he is indeed a very smart little guy.
Towards his two younger sisters, Zhou Chengze acts like an older brother and takes care of them very consciously.
Watching the children playing together, Han Jingyi finally had time to talk to Cui Qingyi, "I don't know who this child takes after. He's been greedy since he was little. Now that his father is personally taking care of him, he's feeling better."
