The Female Officer Became a Farmer After Getting Reborn

The middle-aged man in a leather hat looked up and saw the convoy. He climbed up from the ditch overjoyed and stood on the roadside waiting for the convoy to approach. He shouted to Jixiang with a smile on his face: "Little brother, could you please help me move the car?" Lift it out."

"Okay." After Jixiang agreed readily, he stopped the car and jumped out and shouted to the people behind him: "Come here and help."

Several coachmen wearing raincoats got out of the car and walked towards Jixiang. The woman leading the horse and the girl took shelter in the car in front.

Yangyang saw the excitement ahead and clamored to go down to have a look. Zhou Jia put on a bamboo hat and hugged him out of the car. Xiaobai also wanted to follow, but Li Yu grabbed him and said, "Little thing, the ground is covered with mud. If you go down, don't even think about coming back up. Go to the woods and fend for yourself." Xiaobai stared at Li Yu and screamed a few times in grievance, lying in the car and not daring to make any mistakes.

Jixiang and several coachmen helped lift the car. After lifting it up, the man in the leather hat panted and saluted everyone and thanked everyone. Everyone also helped lift the box that had fallen into the ditch to the car.

Seeing the extraordinary bearing of Zhou Jia holding the child, the man stepped forward and saluted, "Thank you sir, my surname is Fan, Fan Wenzheng. May I ask what your surname is sir?"

Zhou Jia saw that the man was about forty years old. His face was kind and his temperament was gentle, and he didn't look like someone with ulterior motives. He handed Yang Yang to Ji Xiang and carried him back to the car. He smiled at him and said, "Mr. Fan is polite, so please give me your last name, Zhou Jia."

The man's eyes lit up after hearing this, and he asked in surprise: "Sir, are you Mr. Zhou, the prefect of Yunzhou?"

Zhou Jia glanced at him and nodded with a smile. The man bowed his head and saluted Zhou Jia, "Greetings to Mr. Zhou. I am the magistrate of Zheng County, Liangzhou and returned to Beijing to report on his duties. I have heard of your name for a long time. When I saw you today, you are indeed extraordinary."

Zhou Jia helped him up and said, "Master Fan is so polite. It just so happens that I am also returning to Beijing. I wonder if Master Fan would like to accompany me?"

Fan Wenzheng bowed and said: "I don't dare to ask for my ear, but I have my wish."

"Master Fan, you are too polite. The rain is getting heavier and heavier, please." Zhou Jia said with a smile.

Everyone got into the car separately. Zhou Jia sat on the rafters of the car and took off his mud-covered boots. Yangyang obediently handed him a piece of bamboo and said, "Daddy, let me scrape the mud for you."

Li Yu glanced at Zhou Jia with a smile, "Xiao Xi, have you met someone you know?"

"Where..." Zhou Jia smiled and told the story, got back in the car, and everyone started on their way.

After Hai hour, a group of people arrived at an inn. Li Yu took Yangyang and Zhou Jia helped Mr. Wen walk to the inn.

After settling in, Fan Wenzheng took a girl downstairs to the lobby. Li Yu saw the girl. She had bright eyes and white teeth, fair skin, tall figure, and was as charming as a peony in plain clothes.

After Fan Wenzheng saluted Li Yu, he pointed at the girl and said, "Mrs. Li, this is our little girl Mingfang," and then turned to Fan Mingfang and said, "Mingfang, please pay homage to Madam."

Miss Fan walked up to Li Yu gracefully, bent her knees and saluted, "Ming Fang has met Madam."

Li Yu asked Xinghua to give her a greeting gift, and said with a smile: "Miss Fan, you don't need to be polite, just feel free to go out."

"Thank you, madam." Fan Mingfang stood up and smiled at Li Yu, then stood aside and waited for Fan Wenzheng to meet Mr. Wen.

Yangyang glanced at Fan Mingfang with a smile and walked up to her, "Sister, you are so beautiful."

Fan Mingfang squatted down with a slight blush, looked at Yang Yang and said softly with a smile: "Little brother, you are also very good-looking."

Li Yu looked thoughtfully at Fan Mingfang, who was squatting there and talking to Yang Yang.

After Li Yu watched them being polite to each other, the shopkeeper came out and shouted: "Dear guests, the food is ready."

After everyone had a meal in the lobby, they politely said goodbye and went back to their rooms to rest. After returning to the room, Zhou Jia told Li Yu that the Fan family was from Kyoto. Fan Wenzheng's father was a editor at the Hanlin Academy. He suffered a stroke and was paralyzed at home two years ago. Mrs. Fan Wenzheng took her son back home to take care of his illness. His daughter contracted the cold. Only after the year did he return to Beijing with Fan Wenzheng.

Li Yu had met Fan Wenfang several times and felt that this girl was well-educated and had first-class appearance and character. Li Yu felt in his heart that this girl was the best candidate for his sister-in-law. He didn't know if the girl was betrothed to him or not. I know if this girl and Li Qing have eyes for each other.

On the road that day, Li Yu discussed with Zhou Jia: "Xiao Xi, what do you think of Fan Wenzheng as a person?"

"It looks pretty good," Zhou Jia looked at Li Yu and smiled, "What? You want to marry her daughter off to Ah Qing as your wife?"

Li Yu nodded and said with a smile: "I have been in contact with that girl a few times, and I think she is pretty good in all aspects. I have this idea, but most people get married early, so it would be embarrassing to ask them rashly. Ah! Besides, I don’t know if she and Ah Qing can see eye to eye!"

After hearing this, Zhou Jia looked at Li Yu confidently, "How could Miss Fan's family look down on our Ah Qing? Our Ah Qing's character and appearance are both excellent, and we are worthy of Miss Fan's family no matter what. Wait for me Go and find out if the Miss Fan family is engaged. If not, I will mention Ah Qing's situation to him, and if he is willing to wait until he returns to Kyoto, let them see each other."

Li Yu looked at Zhou Jiahu's short appearance, pursed his lips and smiled, and warned: "Don't be busy now. When you have the right opportunity, we can learn more about him from the side. There is still a month to go, so there will always be a chance to find out more."

After hearing this, Zhou Jia nodded in agreement and said to Li Yu with a smile: "You have a rest first. I'll go to your husband's place to have a look. Yang'er and Little Loach are both there!"

Li Yu lazily leaned on the bed and said, "Xiao Xi, I see that your husband didn't eat much tonight. Go and ask your husband if he wants to eat. Ask Grandma Liu to find the innkeeper and lend him the inn's kitchen. Re-do."

"Okay." Zhou Jiaying went to the room where Mr. Wen lived next door and saw him leaning on the bedside telling stories to several children. Yangyang and Little Stutter were knocking his back, Little Loach and Maizi were knocking his legs, and Maodou was hugging him. Xiaobai sat there obediently.

Zhou Jia looked at everyone and said with a smile: "Oh! Where are there so many good children?"

The little loaches shouted a little shyly: "Master, you are here!"

Yangyang stepped forward and pulled Zhou Jia, "Dad, Master, he is not feeling well."

Zhou Jia looked at Mr. Wen worriedly, "Sir, Xiaoyu said you didn't eat much tonight. Is it because the food didn't suit your appetite?"

"Don't worry, I'm just a little tired and have no appetite," Mr. Wen looked at Zhou Jia lovingly, smiled and touched the children's buns, "Good kids, go to bed! We have to go on the road tomorrow morning! "

Little Loach nodded and said, "Yes, the old man should rest early."

Yangyang waved to the children. Zhou Jia walked out and saw them going downstairs to their room before turning to Mr. Wen and saying, "Sir, I'll make you a bowl of tea and noodles. What do you think?"

Mr. Wen looked at Zhou Jia's worried eyes and felt warm in his heart, "Go ahead! Eat less. If you eat too much, you won't be able to heal it."

After Zhou Jia served Mr. Wen some tea and noodles, Zhou Jia took Yangyang back to the house to rest. Early the next morning, everyone started on their way again at dawn.
