After Wei Rou finished speaking, there was a moment of silence in the hall.

Both Wei Rou and Jiang He looked at Chu Jing worriedly.

Chu Jing's eyes were already red,

But she tried her best to keep her emotions calm, and even managed to force a forced smile.

"Actually, I already guessed it. I asked someone to inquire about it, but there was no news. I guess it's probably..."

Chu Jing choked up, took a few deep breaths, and then said to Wei Rou: "But I still want to thank Mrs. General for being willing to tell me this. How is Xiao Yan?"

Wei Rou nodded.

"He is studying at Crane Hall Academy and has a good life."

"Hetang Academy?"

Chu Jing had also heard of this academy, and was a little surprised to hear that Luo Yan was actually studying at Hetang Academy.

"That's really great. In the past, the housekeeper uncle wanted to let him go to school, but later... I believe he can learn something."

"Miss Chu, don't you plan to go back to Jiangnan?"

Chu Jing paused when she heard this question, and said softly, "I have to go back and pay homage to my ancestors."

"I heard that the second elder brother will go to Jiangnan to work in a few days, Miss Chu is willing to..."

This is also what Wei Rou heard from Gu Xi. He Zheng died in Jiangnan, and the position of prefect was vacant, and someone had to fill it.

It happened that the second elder brother was outstanding in the capital, so the emperor deliberately transferred him to the south of the Yangtze River.

Jiangnan is a sweet pastry.

How many people fought over their heads and wanted to sit on that seat.

The south of the Yangtze River is a rich and prosperous place, and there must be oil and water to fish there.

But it is not a good place for courtiers who want to make contributions. Going to the south of the Yangtze River will only make people more slack, and being far away from the capital, it is impossible to grasp the movements in the capital anytime and anywhere.

It's called the promotion of Wei Yunxian, but in fact Wei Yunxian didn't hold any real power except for being promoted to a noble.

What's more, the case of Jiangnan's privately manufactured ordnance has been closed, and it will be fooled to follow in He Zheng's footsteps.

Presumably the emperor arranged for Wei Yunxian to go to the south of the Yangtze River because he was afraid of the power of Wei Guogong's mansion.

In an instant, countless thoughts had passed through Wei Rou's mind.

When Wei Yunxian was mentioned, Chu Jing's cheeks flushed slightly.

"Master Wei...Master Wei did mention this matter to me, and asked if I would like to go to Jiangnan with him."

Wei Rou blinked her eyes, her face narrowed.

Jiang He hurriedly said: "Then why hesitate! Promise him!"

Chu Jing's face turned even redder.

"Teacher... the teacher comes from no name."

Jiang He forced him to the point where he couldn't even speak.

Jiang He frowned.

"What's the point? You can go if you want! Isn't that your hometown? You can also take the little one with you. The little one will be very happy!"

The "little one" in Jiang He's mouth is Chu Jing's child.

Chu Jing stopped talking.

Wei Rou laughed.

"Don't say that. What she means is that she has nothing to do with my second brother. It's hard for her to go out with him as a woman, and she will invite people to gossip."

Jiang He's brows furrowed even tighter.

"Aren't you a concubine with love? Why is this unknown? I remember that the second son of the Wei family asked you—"

Jiang He paused: "You haven't agreed yet, have you?"

Chu Jing's face was as red as a boiled shrimp, she bit her lower lip tightly, and it took her a long time to say: "I, I, I don't know."

Jiang He hated that iron could not be made into steel.

"Why don't you know this! Don't you have feelings for the second son of the Wei family?"

Chu Jing shook her head.

"Then it's fine, you two should be married when you're a boy, and you'll be married if you're a girl, so let's be together!"
