Allure of a Country Maiden

On the second day of the Dragon Boat Festival, it started to rain heavily early in the morning.

Shangguan Xuanyi and Xiaoer were preparing to go out. Shangguan Xuanyi received the news and knew that Lei Wu had believed it. He sent someone to tell Shangguan Ruixi the news.

As for the people he sent out to investigate Lei Wu's background, there is no news yet.

Xiaoer heard Shangguan Xuanyi's words and asked casually: "A traitor in Nangong Kingdom?"

"Well. Let's go! Otherwise it's time for Jing Hao to set off."

"Okay!" Xiaoer also asked casually, and the two took the children back to their parents' home to see Jing Hao off.

Not only Jing Hao, but also Wen Zhiwen and Liu Zhiwu.

As Liu Zhiwen and Liu Zhiwu wished, they were also arranged to the south. Liu Zhiwen was closer to Jingrui, while Liu Zhiwu went directly to Zezhou with Jing Hao, but Jing Hao was the prefect and he was the county magistrate.

The difference is not that big.

However, in addition to the top pick and the second best, there are also some people with higher rankings and more prominent family backgrounds who have become county magistrates, while other children from poor families started as county magistrates.

Although the official position is low, this imperial examination has the highest appointment rate. It can be said that it is 100% appointment with real power!

Every Jinshi who received the appointment document entered the political arena with great ambitions and planned to show off his talents.

Times make heroes! They are excited because there will be a bigger political stage waiting for them to play in the future.

Brothers Jing Hao and Liu Zhiwen told them not to see each other off, but everyone came.

Xiaoer originally planned to bring her children here, but it was raining and she had no choice but to leave them at home.

Shangguan Xuanyi and Xiaoer arrived at Shengpinghou Mansion.

Xiao'er didn't see Xi'er and asked, "Where is Xi'er?"

On days like this, there's no way that girl won't show up! You must know that Jing Hao has not been seen for several years since he went south.

Mrs. Liu replied: "That girl is making trouble to come, but she has a fever this morning. I told her to stay in bed and not allow her to go out."

"You have a fever? It's not serious, right?" Xiao'er was a little surprised. Because Xi'er grew up eating food in the space, it can be said that she has never been sick since she was a child!

"Nothing's wrong, she's just a little hot. She looks energetic and lively. It's just because it's raining that I don't allow her to go out to prevent her from getting cold."

Xiaoer didn't think much after hearing this. Anyway, there was medicine in the house, so nothing would happen.

So everyone set off together, and they kept seeing Jing Hao and Liu Zhiwen off. The two brothers Liu Zhiwu didn't stop until they reached Shiliting.

Mrs. Tan and Mrs. Liu looked at their son's carriage driving away, feeling both sad and relieved.

I’m reluctant to say goodbye because it’s only been a few years since we parted ways. I’m happy to know that my son has finally accomplished something in his studies, and his life will get better and better in the future!

"Mom, good men are everywhere. This is a good thing, but don't cry." Xiaoer comforted her when she saw the corners of Liu's eyes were a little wet.

Mrs. Liu wiped the tears from the corners of her eyes and said with a smile: "Mother, I am so happy. You have all grown up and are promising!"

"Jing Hao will become more and more promising in the future. Let's go back. The rain is getting heavier and heavier!" Xiaoer smiled slightly and looked at the dark clouds in the distant sky, but so what, after the wind and rain, there will always be There is sunshine.

Who will not encounter wind, frost, rain and snow in life? But there are always more sunny days!

Everyone got on the carriage and went back to their homes.

Jing Hao, Liu Zhiwen and Liu Zhiwu only took a carriage, and they planned to take a boat instead at the dock.

The journey is long, and taking the water route is much faster than the land route, which can save about ten days.

The three people's luggage had been checked in by the family's caravan a few days ago. They only brought small bags, which were very elegant.

When the three of them arrived at the pier, the rain had stopped.

A passenger ship belonging to the Shi family was parked at the pier. The captain had been waiting for them for a long time. This was the great-great-grandson of the owner, so he naturally had to greet him personally!

The captain saluted the three of them one by one and said with a smile:

"The three young masters have arrived so early. I thought it was going to rain. You should take shelter from the rain."

"The schedule cannot be delayed any longer." Jing Hao explained.

"Okay, I'll sail the ship right away, let's set off! I will never take the post of three young masters." The captain ran away after hearing this.

Jing Hao, Liu Zhiwen, and Liu Zhiwu all laughed.

It didn't rain again for the next whole day, the sun scorched the deck, and the guests on the ship hid in the cabin. The ship kept heading south, with no intention of docking at night.

At night, the heat dissipates, and guests who have been bored in the cabin all day can't help but go out on the deck to get some fresh air.

Jing Hao and the three of them left the cabin after dinner and came to the deck, intending to enjoy the river breeze for a while before going back to the room to sleep.

When Jing Hao and the others came to the deck, they saw two figures, one tall and one short, on the guardrail of the deck. They were extremely familiar.

Jing Hao felt a bad feeling in his heart.

He strode over, and Xi'er turned around just in time. When she saw Jing Hao, she said happily: "Second brother! You finally came out!"

When Jing Hao saw the two of them, his expression was even more cloudy than the morning sky!

Gu Qiling also turned her head at this time. She glanced at Jing Hao and felt excited, but she still said weakly: "Senior brother!"

"You?" Liu Zhiwen and Liu Zhiwu were both shocked and speechless.

"Why are you two here?" Jing Hao squeezed out this sentence through his teeth!

Xi'er is not afraid of him. She knows that Jing Hao is just a paper tiger. Compared with Xiao'er, her two brothers are the most helpless to her! Anyway, nothing can be done to her in the end!

A bright smile appeared on Xi's face and she said: "We plan to follow you to take office!"

"Nonsense!" Jing Hao scolded with a bluffing face: "Follow me to take office? Do you know how many years I have been here? Do you think this is a joke? When the ship docks tomorrow, look at the dock. There is no boat back to the Imperial Capital. If there is, you can return to the Imperial Capital immediately!"

"I do not want!"

"It's not your turn." Jing Hao was about to say something.

Gu Qiling grabbed Jing Hao's sleeve: "Brother, we won't hinder you. We just haven't been to the south. We heard that the trees there are green all year round? We all want to see it."

Gu Qiling knew that Jing Hao was fond of soft things and not hard things, so she quickly said coquettishly.

"No! You want to see us later." Jing Hao wanted to take her to see her after they got married, but there were other people on the deck, so he quickly changed his words: "I will take you to see me when I have the opportunity in the future. There is a war in the south right now, and there is chaos. Here you go! You must take a boat back to the Imperial Capital tomorrow!"

This time Jing Hao would not agree to anything!

He was absolutely busy when he got there, and he was not familiar with them, so how could he possibly care about them!

These two people did this to him just after visiting the flower house. Did they think he was living too carefree?
