Madam, She Has a Tender Heart

[Recite the URL silently three times. Do you remember it? If you don’t remember, I’ll ask again in the next chapter. It’s best to share it on Facebook for me]

After the New Year, the talents who came from all over the country to apply for the official positions in Zhenhai states all arrived in Xuzhou.

Including Haizhou, Zhenhai now has six states under its jurisdiction, and each state has several counties and towns under its jurisdiction. There is a lot of need for personnel.

Pei Shi, Xu Tang and others set out several examination questions, and also investigated their past resumes and character. Some suitable ones were assigned positions.

The shortage of manpower in government offices at all levels in several states has been greatly improved.

On this day, Su Qingying and Lu Bocheng were in the mansion. One was doing accounts and preparing to open a shop, and the other was reading to his daughter.

Suddenly Youbai came in and said that an old friend of the adults came to see him.

The couple looked at each other, a little stunned.

Where did it come from?

Lu Bocheng was still looking forward to it and hurriedly ordered people to be invited in.

A middle-aged man with a big belly walked in, followed by a well-dressed young woman.

Su Qingyu and Lu Bocheng looked at the two people, don't they recognize them? Which one is old?

Lu Bocheng was afraid that he would forget something, so he asked: "Excuse me, are you..."

The woman raised her eyes and glanced at Lu Bocheng and the lady sitting next to him, then lowered her head.

The middle-aged man smiled before saying anything: "I have met your lord, madam. My name is Yingcai, and he is from Shangzhou. I heard that your lord is recruiting talents here, so I thought of applying. I have been here since I was five years old." I have been enlightened since I was 10 years old and have been studying for more than ten years. I think I am much better than those illiterate people. Your Excellency is currently in need of talents. I am here to recommend myself to you."

For a moment, he didn't know the depth of this person, so Lu Bocheng said politely: "Thank you for your hard work. Thank you, Brother Ying, for looking up to me, Zhenhai. Please have a seat."

Order someone to serve tea.

After the tea was served, before Lu Bocheng could say anything, the man named Ying Cai pulled the woman next to him, pushed her toward Lu Bocheng, and said, "Do you still recognize her?"

Lu Bocheng and Su Qingyu stared at the woman with her head lowered for a long time and shook their heads.

"My lord has too many things to do, and noble people tend to forget things. It's normal. Her name is Hua Shi, and her previous maiden name was Hua Yan. I wonder if your lord remembers it?"

Huayan?

Lu Bocheng was still frowning, wondering who Hua Yan was. Did he recognize her?

When Su Qingyu heard the name, she remembered it.

Is this Hua Yan?

Look at it intently. Hua Yan happened to raise her head and look towards her, and the two women looked at each other.

A scene from many years ago suddenly became clear.

Hua Yan looked at the beauty in front of her who was becoming more and more delicate, as if she had been forgotten by time. She was just a peasant girl married in the countryside, but now she is the wife of a military governor.

And she is the only one in the inner curtain of the Lord. She must be very popular with adults. And she has already passed the end of her life.

Hua Yan felt bitter in her heart.

Su Qingyu smiled, glanced at Ying Cai, and said to Lu Bocheng, "These are really old friends."

"who?"

Lu Bocheng stared at the two of them again, but there was no such person in his memory. Old? Could it be that he has really become a noble and forgotten things?

When Hua Yan saw Lu Bocheng, she didn't even look at her. It was obvious that she didn't recognize her, and she felt even more confused.

"Hua Yan, you were drafted before, and on the day you went to the battlefield, the flower girl came to see you off. It has only been nine years, and you have completely forgotten about me."

After listening to Su Qingyu's words, Lu Bocheng looked at Hua Yan.

Patting his head: "It's Hua Yan, I remember it. Why did you come to Xuzhou?"

Seeing her dressed as a woman, she said happily: "So you are Brother Ying's wife, congratulations."

Lu Bocheng sincerely congratulated her.

I know that for people like them, if they can marry into a good family, they will probably have a good ending.

When Ying Cai heard this, the smile on his face was a little unnatural.

"When Ying first came to Pingchuan County, he met Hua Yan, redeemed her body, and took her back to Caozhou. This time I learned that the master was recruiting talents, so I came over to give it a try. It happened that the Hua family next to me said that she knew the master, I brought her here. Before I came to the house, I heard that my wife was pregnant. I would like to congratulate you and your wife. I am afraid that my wife will be more and more inconvenient in the future. If you don't mind, I will. It’s better to keep Hua by your side to serve you and your lady.”

After saying that, he looked at Lu Bocheng with an expression of waiting to be praised.

What?

Is this giving his concubine to Lu Bocheng? In the noble world, give each other concubines?

Su Qingyu was shocked.

Why do you still act like it's normal, like you're used to it? Waiting for Lu Bocheng to praise him for his thoughtfulness? And then happily keep the person and give him an important position?

Lu Bocheng was also stunned.

Just as he was about to speak, he heard the lady say: "Ms. Hua, do you think so too?"

Huayan felt a sense of embarrassment in her heart, and there was also a hint of emotion that she couldn't explain.

Why doesn't she want to marry a good family, have a few children, have food and drink, have children by her side, and live out her life comfortably?

But Ying Cai had many wives and concubines, and she was not very noticeable in his backyard. I have been following Ying Cai for several years, but I haven't given birth to a son or a daughter yet.

She knew how miserable the life of a childless concubine was.

I had no choice but to lie down to Yingcai. Ying Cai was coming to Xuzhou this time, so she would not take him with her, but something went wrong. She told Ying Cai that she knew Zhenhai Jiedushi.

So Ying Cai took her with him.

She wanted to see him again.

If he keeps her... it's better than following Ying Cai.

Huayan said nothing. He stood quietly behind Ying Cai with his lips pursed.

Lu Bocheng frowned: "Brother Ying, I'm afraid you have misunderstood. Years ago, I only drank Huajiu once in Hualou. When I saw an injustice on the road, I saved Hua Yan and had no interaction with her. Let alone win. The good intentions of others. Besides, I am already married and have a good wife by my side, so I don’t want to take a concubine. Please forgive me.”

Ying Cai looked incredulous. How could anyone not want to take a concubine? Or someone with such a high status?

It’s not like he has no money or power.

Could it be that Madam is too fierce?

Ying Cai looked at Su Qingyu's face, and she didn't look like a fierce woman. Of course, it is also possible to know people but not know their hearts.

After a few more cryptic words, Lu Bocheng refused to continue and even picked up the tea cup.

Ying Cai is also a person who often socializes, so who doesn't know what Lu Bocheng means? He had come to apply for the draft, and now he didn't dare to offend Lu Bocheng on his territory.

Then he said goodbye.

Hua Yan walked behind him, and when she was about to cross the threshold, she glanced at Lu Bocheng sadly before following him.

Lu Bocheng and Su Qingyu were sitting on their chairs, not moving at all, not even bothering to show off.

"I just thought everyone was joking. I didn't expect that someone with money, power and status would actually send me a beautiful concubine."

Su Qingyu looked at Lu Bocheng and said lightly.

Lu Bocheng's heart trembled. The more gentle the lady was, the more violent storms were brewing in his heart. He hurried over and squatted in front of her.

Caressing her chest: "Madam, don't be angry. You are pregnant now, so don't dare to get angry. You think my husband doesn't even remember her."

"Didn't you know someone's name just now?" You mean you can't remember.

Lu Bocheng choked.

He raised three fingers: "I swear to my husband that I will never think about another woman, even for a moment, and I will never have any thoughts of marrying another woman. My husband only wants a wife. If he lies and deceives, the sky will thunder. hack!"
