Chapter 522 I’m Not Going
"Indeed, nowadays, almost every household in the entire northwest can fill their stomachs. There are no longer those who suffered from hunger and cold as before."
When saying this, Quan Zhaonian subconsciously glanced in Jing Keqing's direction.
The meaning is very clear: the reason they lived such a miserable life in the past few years was entirely because of the war.
Jing Keqing: “…”
Next, Yu Mengqing walked around the factory again before walking out satisfied.
"General Jing, honestly, I want to thank you!" Not far outside the factory, Yu Mengqing said to Jing Keqing seriously.
Hearing this, Jing Keqing was also helpless.
How could what he wanted be just a simple thank you from her?
He thought he could let it go, but over the past year, he has missed her all the time.
He thought that as time went by, he might be able to slowly forget her.
However, a letter from her made him send people to wait for him hundreds of miles northwest every day.
He also ordered them to inform him immediately as soon as they had any news about her.
Today, he finally waited for it.
But I found that I still couldn't change anything.
It seems that he is really giving up.
It was at this moment that he truly understood what she had said.
She said that sometimes love does not have to be held in your hands.
Sometimes letting go and letting her find her own happiness may be true love.
He may not have understood it before, but it’s different now. He seems to be slowly understanding it.
"You don't have to thank me. As long as you live well, everything I do is worth it."
When he said this, he also deliberately glanced at Chu Shiheng who was watching him covetously not far away.
He had already discovered that since the two of them stood here, Chu Shiheng was apparently doing other things.
But in fact, his gaze was always vaguely scanning towards them.
Chu Shiheng, who was not far away, naturally noticed Jing Keqing's gaze towards him.
He tried to hold it in, but couldn't, so he pretended nothing had happened and walked towards the two of them.
"Have you finished your talk?" Chu Shiheng asked with forced calmness.
Yu Mengqing: "..."
"Not yet! I was just about to invite General Yu to visit my Manjing Kingdom!"
Jing Keqing originally just wanted to say this to piss off Chu Shiheng.
Unexpectedly, Yu Mengqing's eyes lit up when she heard this.
"General Jing, are you telling the truth?"
Jing Keqing: “…” Could he say that he just said it casually?
But after meeting Yu Mengqing's expectant eyes, Jing Keqing nodded subconsciously.
Chu Shiheng: “…” Are these two people treating me as transparent?
Seeing Chu Shiheng gritting his teeth, Jing Keqing suddenly felt happy.
He lost to him on the battlefield, but he felt better because he could piss him off here.
Of course, Jing Keqing felt relieved.
But Yu Mengqing had a miserable time that night.
General's Mansion, Yin hour. (Yin hour is around 3:00 AM now.)
Seeing that Chu Shiheng still wanted to continue, Yu Mengqing finally gave in.
"Chu Shiheng, are you done yet? I've already said that I have nothing to do with him. What do you want?"
No matter how angry she was, Yu Mengqing looked weak when she said this.
Because she really has no strength.
These days in the northwest, she has different things to do every day.
She only had a little time today, but he made her suffer to death at night. How could she not be angry?
Chu Shiheng naturally knew that he had been a little unreasonable tonight.
He also knew that the two were innocent.
He also knew that Yu Mengqing only had him in her heart.
But who is it that makes me unable to control myself every time I meet her?
Thinking of this, Chu Shiheng said again: "This is the last time, the last time..."
When he said this, Chu Shiheng pressed Yu Mengqing under him again...
The next day, Yu Mengqing slept until noon.
When the two appeared, although no one said anything, everyone was a smart person, so what was there that they didn't know?
It's just that it's not said out loud.
When she saw Jing Keqing again, Yu Mengqing had completely changed her tune.
There was no mention of going to Manjing State again.
"Why?" Jing Keqing asked Chu Shiheng with a smile.
It looked like he had already let it go, but this man just hadn't let it go.
Seeing this, Chu Shiheng said openly: "I want to go, but my wife doesn't want to go. I always respect her and put her wishes first."
Jing Keqing: “…”
Yu Mengqing: "..."
I've seen people with thick skin, but I've never seen anyone as thick-skinned as this.
"Is Princess Chu really not going?" Jing Keqing asked Yu Mengqing again.
This time, he didn't ask Chu Shiheng, but Yu Mengqing.
"No, we're a bit pressed for time this time. There's always a chance."
Yu Mengqing finally refused.
It’s not that she doesn’t want to go, but that everyone except Chu Shiheng doesn’t want to go.
Yu Mengqing knew that they probably wanted to go back.
I am fine, but Xue Zhonglan and Guo Peiying's children are only a few months old. It is rare for them to accompany me for such a long time.
She also wanted to think about them.
Seeing Yu Mengqing like this, Jing Keqing didn't force her.
Originally, he just said it casually.
After staying in the northwest for almost half a month, Yu Mengqing finally decided to return to Beijing under their bombardment.
Before that, she drew a lot of new clothes.
They even made several delicious dishes and braised stews here.
If she had enough time, she would have planned to open another restaurant here.
You know, there are so many traveling merchants here, and her brine is so popular, is she still worried about having no business?
It was only after coming here that Yu Mengqing realized that what Quan Zhaonian said in the letter was still a bit obscure.
In fact, the factory received far more orders than he wrote.
If this continues, she couldn't even imagine what the Northwest would be like in a few years.
"If you really want to open a restaurant here, you can tell Quan Zhaonian about your plan and let him implement it slowly."
"Quan Zhaonian?"
"Yes, hasn't he always been here? Besides, he hasn't started a family yet. Why don't you take this opportunity to find him something to do?"
Chu Shiheng said as a matter of course.
"It's just that the factory affairs are already busy enough for him." Yu Mengqing said reluctantly.
"Believe it or not, if you just tell him, he will definitely agree with both hands?" Chu Shiheng said to Yu Mengqing with a raised eyebrow.
