Read Married to a Villainous Minister - Chapter 492: The Real Lady of a Noble Family (Ten)

Yu Jiao was both angry and amused, "You've read too many storybooks, where do you get all these weird ideas?"

"I appreciate your kindness." Without waiting for Chen Yu to speak, Yu Jiao added, "My brother is a very good person."

"So it's your brother who came, but your parents didn't come?" Chen Yu really cared about Yu Jiao and was afraid that she would be bullied if someone took her home, so he asked seriously.

"My mother has passed away, and my father... is an official in the court. I heard from my brother that he has official duties to attend to and cannot leave." Yu Jiao said.

Chen Yu pondered and said, "Your biological father is actually an official. What is his official position?"

Being able to be an official in the capital, no matter how big or small the official position is, is already a great achievement. Shen Yu was a little surprised. He didn't expect that Yu Jiao was actually a lady from a wealthy family.

What surprised him was yet to come. Yu Jiao's next words shocked Chen Yu so much that he stood up. For a moment he couldn't believe it and felt it was too absurd.

"You said your biological father is Liu Cifu of the current dynasty?" Shen Yu swallowed his saliva, as if in a dream, and said the most real thoughts in his heart, "Have you been deceived?"

Yu Jiao was amused by his reaction. She said, "Brother, you must have not lied to me. You know that Young Marquis Gu and I are acquainted. My brother and Young Marquis Gu are good friends."

Chen Yu sat in a chair for a while, finally digesting the fact that Yu Jiao's biological father was Liu Ci Fu. He looked at Yu Jiao's expression, with a strange look on his face, "Your biological father is Liu Ge Lao! Why aren't you excited at all?"

Yu Jiao was a little puzzled, and Chen Yu sneered, "It sounds so ordinary when you say it, as if Liu Ci Fu is a farmer in the countryside!"

Yu Jiao could not help laughing, and Chen Yu was dazzled by her smile. Her dark eyes were naturally lively, round and dark, and when her eyebrows were curved, she showed a pure innocence that made people easily think of weak little animals like deer and rabbits that need protection.

Chen Yu couldn't help but curl the corners of his lips.

"Then what should I say? Should I go to the streets and beat drums and shout to show that I am also shocked?" Yu Jiao's voice was filled with laughter, and it sounded even clearer.

Seeing her smile, there was a faint dimple on her rosy cheek. Chen Yu moved his fingers slightly, wanting to poke her maliciously. He twisted his fingertips, suppressed the thought, and said, "Anyway, this is a good thing. I used to think that you shouldn't have been born in a small place like the countryside, and it turned out to be true! It seems that I really have good vision!"

He teased, "You will be a noble lady from now on, so don't turn your back on me and ignore me because I am the son of a businessman."

Yu Jiao also followed his words and joked, "Okay, okay, after all, I still expect you to work like a slave and take care of the business in Qiyun County!"

"As ordered, I will serve you like a slave, isn't it enough?" Chen Yu said with a smile, "From now on, if Miss Yu points east, I will never go west. If I take a step west, I will break my legs myself without your telling me!"

Yu Jiao quite likes Chen Yu's personality. Although she calls her the eldest lady or something like that, she doesn't become restrained around her because of that. At least they get along easily and happily. The shock in her mouth is indeed just an expression of shock.

Yu Jiao put the back of her hand against her lips and coughed lightly. "Let's get back to the topic. After I leave, if there is anything going on in Qiyun County, you can discuss it with Manager Zhou. Manager Zhou will be back from Jiangnan in the next few days."

Chen Yu also became serious. He nodded and said, "Okay, the cauliflower seeds will not be fully grown until April or May next year. I will keep a close eye on the fields. You can go home without any worries."

Yu Jiao had not told Chen Yu about the paper mill before. She had originally planned to hand it over to Yu Zhizhou, but now she could not stay in Qixun County for a long time, so she simply handed over the paper mill to Chen Yu. Although she wanted to be a hands-off boss, there still had to be someone in Qixun County who could make the final decision on all matters, big or small.

At present, Chen Yu is the best candidate. After all, Manager Zhou is someone Yu Jiao borrowed from Gu Yun. If Manager Zhou asks to work under Gu Yun one day, Yu Jiao will not be able to stop him.

After talking to Chen Yu about some details that he needed to pay attention to, Yu Jiao gave him a letter and asked him to give it to Manager Zhou and Yu Zhizhou when he went to Zhixun County.
