Li Jingchen sat in the room in a daze, looking at Jiang Tuantuan outside the window, feeling a little lonely. The six-month deadline was up, and it was time for him to return to Beijing to resume his job.
He wanted to take Tuantuan and his family away, but he knew it was impossible. Jiang Dafeng was still teaching, and Tuantuan had just opened a shop. It was impossible for him to leave at this time, especially since Yubao was so young, not even one year old.
Instead of this, it would be better to resign from office when he returns to Beijing this time, and then go home to look after Yubao, Tuantuan and his family.
It will take at least a month for me to return from my post in the capital, so I should buy some things for my family first.
The governor of Jizhou calculated the days and concluded that if the wheat matured normally, it would be within the next two days.
He immediately mounted his horse and rushed to Fujiang County with a servant.
When they arrived outside the county town, they saw many people repairing their houses and harvesting wheat. Everyone had a smile on their face. The governor of Jizhou stroked his beard and smiled with satisfaction.
The refugees can finally settle down!
This time, the governor of Jizhou decided to visit the Jiang family to see if Jiang Tuantuan mentioned by County Magistrate Zhao was the woman on the embankment that day.
The governor of Jizhou was walking leisurely on the street, thinking that he couldn't go home empty-handed when visiting someone for the first time, so he walked around and looked around.
As luck would have it, while walking around, he ran into Li Jingchen who was out shopping. At that time, when Li Jingchen returned to Beijing to report on his work, the governor of Jizhou happened to be in Beijing for business, and they met by chance.
Li Jingchen saw the Jizhou Governor and bowed, saying, "I didn't expect to see you here."
The Jizhou Governor also bowed to him and said, "You are too polite, Deputy General. I just wanted to visit you today and happened to meet you on the street. What a fate."
Li Jingchen didn't even bother to buy things and directly invited the Jizhou governor to his home as a guest.
At this time, Jiang Tuantuan was still watching the store. Jiang Li went to school, and Jiang An went somewhere to play, so Jiang Tuantuan had to go to school by herself.
As soon as the Jizhou governor entered, he saw Feng Xiaoli sitting in the yard coaxing a baby.
Li Jingchen: "This is my mother and my son."
Yubao looked at the stranger, his eyes rolling around with curiosity, and he cried out "Ahhhh".
The Governor of Jizhou said, "As expected of a general's son, he looks strong and lively."
After entering the house, Li Jingchen personally served two cups of tea. The Jizhou Governor got straight to the point and said, "Winter wheat has actually been planted. This has saved Fujiang County. It is said that this winter wheat was proposed by Ling Zheng, and the seeds were also provided by Ling Zheng?"
Li Jingchen: "Yes."
"I wonder where Ling Zheng is. I want to discuss the winter wheat issue with her."
Li Jingchen: "She is in the shop now. Judging from the weather, she will be back soon. Governor, why don't you wait for a while and have dinner together tonight?"
"good."
Jiang Tuantuan closed the shop and strolled back home. When she got to the yard, she rushed to Yubao and said, "Come here, Yubao, give mother a kiss."
"Ahem, the Jizhou governor is in the room, Tuantuan."
Jiang Tuantuan said, "Then go and entertain them. Do you want to eat at home tonight? I'll go buy some food."
Li Jingchen: "No need, come in, the governor wants to see you."
Jiang Tuan Tuan was confused. I didn't know him. After entering the house, I realized, "It's you!"
"You are the Governor of Jizhou. What a fate."
When the governor of Jizhou saw Jiang Tuantuan, his eyes lit up. He had finally found this extraordinary woman.
Li Jingchen looked at the two of them and asked, "Do you know each other?"
Jiang Tuantuan: "We only met once before when we were building the dam."
The Governor of Jizhou said: "The suggestion you made was very useful. It is much better than the previous method of repairing the dam. The Emperor also praised it highly!"
“It’s great to be able to use it.”
The Governor of Jizhou asked: "It is said that the winter wheat planting was also Madam's suggestion, and the seeds were also provided by Madam. Is there any secret in this? Can winter wheat be grown in other places?"
Jiang Tuantuan thought for a moment and said, "It's possible to plant it, but I'm not sure if it will be successful using spring wheat seeds. However, the winter wheat is ripe now, so we can save some for seeds and spread it to other places."
"Okay, I will report this to His Majesty."
In the evening, they went to Chuanxianglou for a sumptuous dinner. After dinner, Li Jingchen quietly said to the Jizhou governor, "I should go home. I'll trouble you to take care of the family while I'm away."
"Okay, lieutenant general, please rest assured."
Before going to bed that night, Li Jingchen sat on the bed and looked at Jiang Tuantuan's worried face. "Tuantuan, I should go back to Beijing. Would you like to come with me?"
"Dad is still teaching, and the shop just opened. The ginger seeds I planted last year should be ripe now. I don't want to leave yet, and Yubao is still young and not suitable for traveling."
As he expected, he was rejected by Tuantuan. "I plan to resign directly when I return to Beijing this time. I don't want to be separated from you."
Jiang Tuantuan took his hand and said, "Don't give up your promising career for us. Once I've dealt with this and you've settled down, I'll come find you."
Li Jingchen hugged Jiang Tuantuan excitedly. This was the first time that Tuantuan took the initiative to hold his hand. "Our Tuantuan is the best."
"Oh, you're trying too hard, hold me more gently."
It has been half a year since Li Jingchen came back. They were not allowed to have sex for the first two months after giving birth, and Jiang Tuantuan did not allow them to have sex for the next four months. Li Jingchen forced himself to endure it every day.
Perhaps because he was about to leave, Jiang Tuantuan suddenly felt soft-hearted and agreed once.
He hardly slept that night. When he woke up the next morning, Jiang Tuantuan had the urge to beat him to death. He had no compassion for others at all.
Maybe Yubao felt that his father was about to leave, so he kept crying for the past two days. On the day of departure, Jiang Tuantuan sent him to the city gate.
The person I had been with day and night for half a year left without saying anything. I felt a little lonely in my heart. I don’t know how long it will take for us to see each other again after he left.
Ever since Li Jingchen left, the food quality at home has suddenly declined. Although Jiang Li has been studying with him for half a year, it is still not enough.
Sometimes Jiang Li is too busy at school to cook, so the family can only continue to drink porridge and eat steamed dishes.
The diet is very light.
At the beginning of the month, the four people from Wu Gu Feng Deng came together. According to the agreement, it was time to distribute the monthly salary. Jiang Tuantuan was waiting for them at home. When he saw them coming, he took out the silver he had prepared in advance and distributed it to everyone one by one.
He went back to the house and took out four new sets of clothes. "The weather is getting warmer, so it's time to put away your thick clothes. These were custom-made for you some time ago. Come try them on and see if they fit you well."
The four of them hugged the clothes in their arms, tears in their eyes, and knelt on the ground, "Thank you, Boss. We are willing to be loyal to you for the rest of our lives."
