After all the sacrifices have been made to speed pass, who is still practicing hard skills?

Chapter 18 Madam, don’t be afraid, I am
  The Zhu family's house was easy to find, and it was the largest and most luxurious one in the entire village. However, the people on the road chose to ignore Jiang Che and Geng Dabiao, who were wearing armor and riding tall horses.

No, what Jiang Che saw in their eyes was numbness.

After a while, Jiang Che and his two men walked to the door of Zhu's house and tied their horses to the stone lions at the door. Geng Dabiao stepped forward and knocked on the vermilion door.

"You are?"

The person who opened the door was an old man with a wrinkled face. He looked at the two of them with squinted eyes. You could vaguely see a few people holding torches behind the door.

Jiang Che went straight to the point, took out the token Zhu Sheng gave him and said:
  "As ordered by Lieutenant Zhu, I have something important to do to see Madam."

The old man took the token, looked at it carefully, and after confirming it was correct, returned it to Jiang Che and said:
  "Master, please wait here for a while. I'll go and report to Madam."

"Thank you."

Jiang Che bowed his hand.

Not long after, the door of the Zhu family was opened again, and the old man said to Jiang Che:
  "Madam is in the study at the moment. The military master is coming with me."

Following the old housekeeper, Jiang Che and Geng Dabiao entered the Zhu Mansion. Compared to the outside, the inside was even more luxurious, with ponds, rockeries, and servants and maids everywhere.

The level of extravagance is evident.

However, Jiang Che regarded this as nothing.

Whether Zhu Sheng is greedy for money or not has nothing to do with him. He even hopes that the other person is a corrupt official so that he can do things better in the future.

Geng Dabiao was left outside the study, and Jiang Che opened the door alone.

The room was antique, with bookshelves full of books, and in front of the desk, a beautiful woman with tied up hair and a graceful posture sat.

Bright eyes, white teeth, gentle and charming.

Seeing Jiang Che come in, the beautiful woman stood up quickly, with a nervous look on her face and asked:

"But what happened to the master? Did I just send you here late at night?"

Jiang Che took the initiative to show his token and handed it to the other party along with the letter:

"Madam, don't be afraid. I am Jiang Che, the deputy commander of Colonel Zhu's account. It was Captain Zhu who sent me to pick up my wife and family members to live in Yanggu County."

The beautiful woman frowned and took the letter. She quickly read the sadness on her face before putting it down with a smile on her face:
  "It turns out that the master is going to be transferred to Yanggu County as a county captain, haha. But I am too worried."

"Madam is right to be cautious."

Although the woman was beautiful, Jiang Che did not go beyond her. Except for the fact that he kept looking down at the ground at the beginning, he was not yet qualified to be presumptuous.

"I have troubled Commander Jiang this time. I will ask people to make preparations immediately. How about we set off in the next two days?" Mrs. Zhu asked with a smile, her attitude was quite friendly.

"Everything is at my Lady's command."

Jiang Che handed over his hand.

"Mom, what's going on? I heard dad sent someone here?"

While the two were talking, the door to the study room was pushed open, and a girl wearing a goose-yellow palace skirt came in. Jiang Che turned to look at her. Her appearance was somewhat similar to Zhu Sheng's, but in terms of appearance, she was much different. Beat Mrs. Zhu.

"What's the point of being reckless?"

Mrs. Zhu frowned slightly.

The girl in the yellow dress didn't care. She walked up to Jiang Che and looked her over. When she saw Jiang Che's face clearly, she was a little disappointed. She raised her head and asked casually:
  "What's your name, and why did my father send you here?"

Jiang Che didn't answer and looked at the beautiful woman.

"Qing'er, don't be rude. This is Commander Jiang Chejiang. Your father has been transferred to Yanggu County as a county captain. Commander Jiang is here to escort you." Madam Zhu immediately scolded with a cold face.

"Commander, how old are you this year that you can become the commander?" Zhu Qingqing didn't believe it.

"Associate."

Jiang Che smiled at her.

"Oh, it turns out he's the deputy commander, that's what I'm saying. But I'm staying well here. I won't go to Yanggu County." Zhu Qingqing curled her lips.

"Madam, please prepare first. Jiang is waiting outside Zhujiabao. If anything happens, just send someone to tell her." For a young woman, Jiang Che didn't care about her attitude.

He would not even beg her in a lowly manner to go. After clasping his fists at Mrs. Zhu, he turned around and left.

After Jiang Che left, Mrs. Zhu frowned:
  "Nonsense, Commander Jiang is also your father's subordinate, how can he be so rude?"

"Mom, you also said that he is my father's subordinate. Do I need to be polite to a subordinate? Besides, I didn't do anything to him. Mom, are you making too much fuss?"

Zhu Qingqing looked indifferent.

"Your father said in the letter that although this Jiang Che is from an ordinary background, he has great qualifications and intends to bring you two together."

"Stop it, my father is crazy. He wants to marry me to a small deputy commander. Don't even think about it. I won't marry!" Zhu Qingqing's eyes widened and she immediately refused.

"Qing'er, you are seventeen, it's time to get married."

Mrs. Zhu looked sad, and the Zhu family was thin. She only had one son and one daughter, and everyone did not let her worry. Especially Zhu Qingqing, who relied on her family background to run rampant in Zhujiapu, and developed a arrogant attitude. character.

It gave both of them a headache.

"Even if I want to get married, I have to marry a man with ability, appearance and family background. This Jiang Che looks ordinary and I can't stand it." Zhu Qingqing rolled her eyes and continued:
  "Mom, you said just now that Jiang Che is from an ordinary family. What does his family do?"

"Your father said in the letter that he seemed to be a fisherman." Mrs. Zhu said, recalling the contents of the letter.

"No wonder I smell fishy. Anyway, I definitely can't marry a fisherman. If you want to marry me, you can marry yourself." Zhu Qingqing snorted and raised her chin.

"Smelly girl, what are you talking about?" Mrs. Zhu's face turned red and she hit Zhu Qingqing.

"That's what I mean anyway, don't try to force me, you and dad."

Mrs. Zhu frowned slightly:
  "You are still young and don't understand. It is precisely because this person is from a low background that our family is easy to control. If he marries you, he will not dare to treat you badly, let alone take a concubine."

"Isn't that just a son-in-law? Don't even think about it. If I want to marry, I will marry a hero. Such a person is not worthy of me."

Mrs. Zhu looked at her arrogant daughter and sighed softly:

"That's all, since you don't want to, I will tell your father, but even so, you must not show boredom in front of Jiang Che, do you understand?"

"Why do I still need to worry about him?"

"After all, I am your father's subordinate. Only if you save some face will you be willing to do things loyally. This is the way of the emperor." Mrs. Zhu lectured.

"I know, I know." Zhu Qingqing waved her hands, not listening to these things at all.

"It's getting late. You should go back and have a good night's rest. Prepare to pack your things tomorrow. Don't keep your father waiting."

"Let's talk tomorrow."
