Chapter 19 Being from a humble background is not a shame

The Zhu family had a lot to take away. Jiang Che and everyone waited for two days before Mrs. Zhu informed him that he was ready to set off.

Of course, all the food and grass for these two days were provided by the Zhu family. Mrs. Zhu was a very capable person, and she had meat for three meals a day.

Geng Dabiao and Xu Saner, two guys who haven't eaten meat for a long time, were very satisfied.

"Damn, you're so rich."

Seeing the Zhu family's dozen or so carriages, all packed to the brim, Xu San'er took advantage of the opportunity and couldn't help but complain, his words full of envy and jealousy.

Just a little leakage in a carriage is enough for ordinary people to survive for a year.

"The commander-in-chief said, we will have such a day in the future." After a few days, Geng Dabiao had almost figured out what Jiang Che said that day. If it were him, his approach might not be any different from Zhu Sheng's.

"I believe this."

Xu San'er chuckled and turned to Jiang Che. Just as he was about to say a few compliments, he found that Jiang Che's eyes were unusually solemn, as if he was thinking about something.

"Commander, what's wrong?"

Xu Saner rode a horse and strolled to Jiang Che's side.

"Brother Xu, I have a task for you."

Jiang Che turned his head and stared at him.

"Please give me your orders, Commander."

Xu Saner's face straightened.

"Return to the camp as quickly as possible, meet with Commander Liu Zhi and Lieutenant Zhu, and ask them to send troops to help quickly. He said that the Zhu family's target is too big and may cause bandits to plunder."

Originally, Jiang Che thought that Mrs. Zhu would travel lightly, and then slowly shift the focus of the Zhu family to Yanggu County, but he did not expect that the other party would actually build a huge motorcade!

A dozen carriages filled with gold and silver treasures are too easy to attract covetous attention.

Although he brought twenty soldiers, he still felt that it was not enough.

The Zhu family's guards looked quite powerful, but after all, they were all armed by farmers, and their true combat power was unknown. Just in case, it was better to be cautious.

He came here to perform meritorious service, but if something happened to Mrs. Zhu, he wouldn't have to mess around in the future.

"yes."

Seeing Jiang Che's serious expression, Xu San'er did not dare to be careless and quickly turned the horse's head and galloped in the direction of Fengziying.

"Commander Jiang, you've done your job this time."

Mrs. Zhu came gracefully, her graceful body slightly bowed towards him, the breeze blew by, and the fragrant breeze moved Jiang Che's heart.

"It should."

"Then let's get going, shall we?"

"Just follow the lady's orders."

In fact, the safest way now is to wait for Liu Zhi to send another group of people to escort him. However, if this is the case, he will appear too useless. Mrs. Zhu seems to be polite, but in fact she keeps a distance.

Most likely you won't listen to his advice.

Then he didn't express his worries.

Soon, the group started to set off.

Twenty soldiers were scattered around the perimeter to guard and guard, and a dozen Zhu family guards followed the carriage closely with sticks and swords in their hands. Jiang Che was not idle, and kept riding around on his horse.

Get moving.

Only in this way can Madam Zhu see his intentions.

"Vice Commander Jiang."

As he was walking away, on the luxurious carriage in the middle, Zhu Qingqing opened the curtain and called him.

"Miss Zhu, is there something wrong?"

Jiang Che showed a rather warm smile.

"It's okay. I'm bored on the road and want to talk to someone. Isn't Vice Commander Jiang busy at the moment?" Zhu Qingqing turned her eyes and asked in a charming voice.

There is no hint of the coquettishness of the past few days.

"If you are bored, miss, you can read a book or take a nap."

Zhu Qingqing's appearance was not bad, but she could only be considered above average. In addition, her first impression was very bad. Even though Zhu Sheng had hinted at him at the beginning, he was still indifferent and had no interest in getting involved with her.

Zhu Qingqing curled her lips, thinking that Jiang Che would still play hard to get.

She thought that because of the clear instructions in her father's letter and the fact that Jiang Che specially came to escort her, he must be interested in her, but the fact is that the other party had no intention of getting close for half a day since they set out on the road.

Just a single-minded vigilance patrol, clearly showing off.

After waiting for a long time, she finally couldn't suppress the restlessness in her heart, so she took the initiative to call him.

It's not that she particularly likes Jiang Che. What she said to Mrs. Zhu that night was her intention, but this doesn't mean that she doesn't want a suitor to compliment her all the time.

Now there is a sense of gap.

"Has Vice Commander Jiang been to Yanggu County?"

Zhu Qingqing calmed down and asked casually.

"Jiang was born in Yanggu County."

"Is there anything fun there?"

"The scenery of Qinglin River is pretty good. Miss, you can go and see it if you have the opportunity in the future."

"Qing Linjiang" Zhu Qingqing rolled her eyes, pretending not to know Jiang Che's origins, and continued to ask:

"Since Commander Jiang is from Yanggu County, he must have a good family background, right?"

Jiang Che shook his head, looked around, made sure he was still safe and replied casually:

"Before Jiang joined the army, he was a fisherman. He made a living by fishing in Qinglinjiang."

"Oh, you make a living by fishing. No wonder Vice Commander Jiang is so familiar with the scenery of Qinglinjiang. Hey. Since you came from a humble background, have you ever been bullied and how did you climb to the position of Vice Commander?"

Zhu Qingqing's eyes widened, especially the accent on the word "climb", and she wanted to see Jiang Che's reaction.

Jiang Che naturally understood what she meant. He turned his head and glanced at her meaningfully, and said lightly:

"It is not a shame to come from a humble background. A husband can only be flexible and flexible. I never mind the past. What Jiang values ​​​​is the future."

After saying that, he clamped his legs around the horse's belly and walked to the front.

Only Zhu Qingqing still pulled the curtain and murmured to herself:

"It is no shame to be born in a humble family. A man who can bend and stretch will be a husband."

"Qing'er, don't mess around. What did you say that night? Why do you still mention these things?" Mrs. Zhu had been listening to the conversation between the two and had frowned for a long time.

She came from a noble family and had read poetry and books since she was a child. She couldn't see her daughter being so uneducated.

Jiang Che had no grudges against them and was loyal to his work, so how could he speak disparagingly?

She had seen too many things where people got into trouble and were resented because of their 'intentional words'.

Zhu Qingqing came to her senses and unusually did not refute her mother's words. She lowered the curtain and said no more.

"How long until we can reach Yanggu County?"

Jiang Che turned to a soldier and asked.

Although he was born in Yanggu County, he didn't know these roads, so he was inferior to these soldiers.

"Coming back to the commander, with the current journey, it will take about three hours."

"Um."

Jiang Che nodded, his face calm.

A day and a half has passed since the departure from Zhujiapu. If you travel lightly, you can arrive there in less than a day. However, this trip is mainly by horse-drawn carriage, and you can only take the official road.

He was very cautious along the way, leaving marks along the way and sending soldiers to investigate. However, Xu San'er, who went to ask for help, had not returned yet, so it seemed that he would not need it now.

The motorcade was moving slowly, and Jiang Che looked around. Suddenly, he raised his hand and said in a deep voice:

"Stop!"
