But no one believed her.<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">It was really . . . Zhao Jinge looked like a man. Saying that Jiang Zhen wanted him because he could work, they would believe that. But Jiang Zhen attached great importance to him . . . How could it be possible!<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">They always thought Zhao Liu was talking nonsense. When they saw that Jiang Zhen helped He Qiusheng and defeated Liu Heitou, they were even more convinced of that\u2014almost everyone thought that Jiang Zhen was after He Qiusheng. For a while, their sympathy for the Zhao family reached its peak and since then, everybody sympathized with the Zhao family. In fact, some of them were happy for the Zhao family. They thought that, with this, the Zhao family could finally get rid of Jiang Zhen. However, the final result came as a surprise to everyone.<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">After Jiang Zhen saved He Qiusheng, he didn\u2019t even look at him. His eyes were glued to Zhao Jinge, who looked a little gray . . . <\/span><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Is his eyesight really alright? <\/span><\/i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Moreover, Jiang Zhen who usually looked so fierce, while looking at Zhao Jinge looked very gentle . . .<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Jiang Zhen brought back a lot of things. There was a lot of porcelain among the goods he snatched from the water bandits. The ceramic crockery was very exquisite, which made it unaffordable for ordinary villagers, so he didn\u2019t sell it. He kept it all, in addition to the various kinds of food he bought from Fucheng . . . He knew at a glance that he could sell the goods he had brought on his ship for several hundred silver.<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Zhao Jinge was surprised when he saw these things. Jiang Zhen paid him the bride price, so he knew that Jiang Zhen didn\u2019t have much money. Now that Jiang Zhen bought so many things at once, he didn\u2019t spend all his money, did he? However, he brought the goods with them and came back. If he sold them later, he wouldn\u2019t lose money.<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u201cI\u2019ve made a lot of money this time, so I have bought a few different kinds of food to eat,\u201d Jiang Zhen explained.<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u201cUm,\u201d Zhao Jinge answered, and the corners of his mouth could not help but hook up. His original uneasiness dissipated after Jiang Zhen held his hand. Now that he was facing the unbelieving eyes of the people around them, his heart was both happy and satisfied. He didn\u2019t think his mood was right, but he couldn\u2019t help it at all.<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u201cEldest Jiang!\u201d He Qiusheng, who had already climbed ashore, called again and came near Jiang Zhen.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u201cWhat\u2019s the matter?\u201d Jiang Zhen asked.<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u201cWhat\u2019s the matter?\u201d He Qiusheng calmed his panicked mood and looked at Jiang Zhen. After a pause, he said, \u201cThank you for saving me.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Speaking of it, He Qiusheng\u2019s appearance was really good. He was slapped twice before, and his face was a bit swollen, but it still didn\u2019t affect his appearance, and even made him look more pitiful. The wet clothes outlined his slim figure and complimented his white neck, which made people want to knock him down.<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Of course, this applied to the other men in Hexi. For Jiang Zhen . . . this was a minor who had just been subjected to a violent attack, which was pitiful but nothing more.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u201cI didn\u2019t save you. That man may still come. You\u2019d better find a way to sort things out,\u201d Jiang Zhen said.<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">He Qiusheng\u2019s father was a bastard. If he had the ability to resist, he would never indulge such a father, but it was the He family&#8217;s decision . . . All the money He Qiusheng\u2019s mother and his two elder brothers earned over the years had been squandered by this father.<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">After that reminder, Jiang Zhen no longer cared about He Qiusheng. He gazed at Zhao Jinge. \u201cShall we go back?\u201d<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Jiang Zhen asked Wang Haisheng to keep an eye on the ship and the cargo, then picked up two loads and gave the lighter one to Zhao Jinge, and carried the heavier one on his own back. Then he walked home with Zhao Jinge.<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u201cJinge, did you get off work early today?\u201d<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u201cJinge, how are the preparations for our wedding going?\u201d<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u201cJinge, did you order a new bed?\u201d<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u00a0. . .<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Jiang Zhen asked questions as they walked, and Zhao Jinge answered them earnestly one by one. In fact, Jiang Zhen kept asking questions mainly because he wanted to talk with Zhao Jinge, but Zhao Jinge replied too seriously, so he also got serious and asked attentively about the wedding.<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">When they were halfway home, Zhao Liu also came. When she saw them, Zhao Liu smiled till her eyes narrowed. \u201cJiang Zhen, you are back! I am so glad you are back!\u201d<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u201cMother,\u201d Jiang Zhen called.<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Zhao Liu immediately felt that she was about to float. On the other hand, by the river, Wang Haisheng was surrounded by the people of Hexi at this time.<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u201cFisherman, are you and Eldest Jiang doing business together?\u201d someone curiously asked.<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u201cNo, I\u2019m working for the boss. I fight.\u201d Wang Haisheng smiled.<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u201cWhat kind of business is Eldest Jiang doing? Did he make a lot of money?\u201d someone asked again.<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u201cHe made some profit,\u201d Wang Haisheng said with a smile. These people wanted to ask more, but they couldn\u2019t find the words.<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Jiang Zhen had explained to him that there were some things that could not be said. Some people surrounded Wang Haisheng, while others went to check on He Qiusheng. Most of the people who went to He Qiusheng were his admirers. They didn\u2019t dare to step up before, fearing that Liu Heitou would target them, and it would affect their families. But now, they dared to come and show their concern. However, He Qiusheng didn\u2019t want to deal with them at all. He walked towards He Chunsheng and He Xiasheng and said, \u201cBrothers . . .\u201d<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Looking at He Chunsheng and He Xiasheng&#8217;s appearance, He Qiusheng started crying again. What should they do now? As long as their father was alive, they would not be able to live a peaceful life . . .<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u201cQiusheng, let\u2019s go back first,\u201d He Chunsheng and He Xiasheng said to their younger brother. Although Jiang Zhen had chased Liu Heitou away, He Qiusheng was not safe yet. In other words, why did Jiang Zhen just leave? They were worried that Jiang Zhen wanted to steal He Qiusheng away like Liu Heitou, and they even planned to negotiate with Jiang Zhen. But in the end, Jiang Zhen didn\u2019t even look at their brother! He Chunsheng and He Xiasheng&#8217;s feelings were very complicated.<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Jiang Zhen and Zhao Jinge went back and forth several times to pick up everything from the boat to the Zhaos&#8217; residence. While they were busy going back and forth, there were always villagers around them looking at them strangely. The villagers couldn\u2019t help but look at this situation weirdly.<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">They had always sympathized with the Zhao family and Zhao Jinge, who had been targeted by Jiang Zhen, and they thought that the life of the Zhao family would not be easy in the future, but now it seemed . . . How could life become more difficult for the Zhao family? Their life was going to be better from now on.<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Jiang Zhen actually sent so many things directly to the Zhaos&#8217; house! What\u2019s more, they didn\u2019t know what kind of eyes Jiang Zhen had, but so far . . . it seemed that he really had a crush on Zhao Jinge . . . He didn\u2019t even look at He Qiusheng, but liked Zhao Jinge!<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p><br \/>Edited by : Faro<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p>Proofreader: Taalia<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p>Support translation:<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.patreon.com\/bePatron?u=25191841\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"217\" height=\"51\" class=\"wp-image-338 lazyload\" data-src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/ontimestory.eu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/10\/become_a_patron_button.png?resize=217%2C51\" alt=\"\" src=\"data:image\/svg+xml;base64,PHN2ZyB3aWR0aD0iMSIgaGVpZ2h0PSIxIiB4bWxucz0iaHR0cDovL3d3dy53My5vcmcvMjAwMC9zdmciPjwvc3ZnPg==\" style=\"--smush-placeholder-width: 217px; --smush-placeholder-aspect-ratio: 217\/51;\" \/><\/a><\/figure>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image is-resized\"><a href=\"https:\/\/ko-fi.com\/lajnaa\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" decoding=\"async\" data-src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/ontimestory.eu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/09\/kofi3-3.png?resize=185%2C47\" alt=\"This image has an empty alt attribute; its file name is kofi3-3.png\" width=\"185\" height=\"47\" src=\"data:image\/svg+xml;base64,PHN2ZyB3aWR0aD0iMSIgaGVpZ2h0PSIxIiB4bWxucz0iaHR0cDovL3d3dy53My5vcmcvMjAwMC9zdmciPjwvc3ZnPg==\" class=\"lazyload\" style=\"--smush-placeholder-width: 185px; --smush-placeholder-aspect-ratio: 185\/47;\" \/><\/a><\/figure>\r\n\r\n<p><!--EndFragment--><\/p>\r\n<p><!--EndFragment--><\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Zhao Liu had always been seriously telling people that Jiang Zhen went to her house to propose marriage to her Jinge, and talking about how good Jiang Zhen was to Zhao Jinge.
