——Attitudes and words.
Prince Jing, who was unruly and rebellious towards outsiders, was dignified and arrogant. In front of Jian Yu's parents, he was both affectionate and courteous. He put himself in the position of a junior and behaved in a moderate manner.
According to Prince Jing's nature, he is definitely not such a docile person! The rumored Prince Jing was not of such a temper. An family might not have paid attention to it back then, but Jian's father in Shengjing had heard about it and even seen it with his own eyes on some occasions.
This is what reassures Jian's father. For a person like Prince Jing, the late emperor can deny him face! What other power can suppress him?
Only when you have your daughter at heart can you have such an attitude.
The daughter's infatuation was responded to, which made the couple feel at ease.
When Prince Jing died, his daughter would rather stay a widow than get married, which shows his heart. If Prince Jing didn't love his daughter, wouldn't her daughter suffer for the rest of her life?
Fortunately, if you keep thinking about it, there will eventually be an echo.
Prince Jing does not need to do anything to flatter him, arrange a welcoming ceremony at the city gate, book a restaurant or theater, etc. In fact, the couple does not care about these.
As long as he shows his love and respect for Jian Yu, that's enough!
Of course, they also benefited greatly from their son-in-law's attentiveness.
Because of Prince Jing’s high-profile actions, the people of Jinzhou all knew that Prince Jing was here, specially bringing the princess with him to pick up his father-in-law and mother-in-law from Shengjing!
Soon the news spread back to Shengjing. It turned out that Prince Jing was going to pick up the Jian family! Now we have rushed to Shengjing together, we will arrive in more than ten days.
Many officials couldn't help but say sarcastic words in private. If Magistrate Jian takes advantage of Prince Jing's success, he may be on his way to success in the future!
What he said was full of contempt for his daughter's ability. In fact, he was jealous to death. Fame in the court was important, but in-law relationships were also a way to be an official.
If possible, they also want Prince Jing as their son-in-law! This also means that as long as you don't make big mistakes in the future, your official career will be good!
Too bad they didn't.
If everyone knew that Prince Jing behaved completely like a prince in front of Magistrate Jian, and acted like a son-in-law, their teeth would be broken in envy.
The news received in Shengjing was that Prince Jing, together with a thousand soldiers and Magistrate Jian and his wife, rushed back to Shengjing. In fact, in Jinzhou City, Zhou Jinyan, Jian Yu, and Jian's father and mother said goodbye.
They didn't hide the fact that they were going to Qingzhou. An was hesitant to speak when she heard the name of Qingzhou. She didn't say anything at the moment. At night, she called her daughter aside and told her that her grandfather's house was there. Things in Qingzhou.
Jian Yu took the opportunity to ask her mother and grandfather what was going on at their house.
An's brows were furrowed. She saw that her daughter wanted to visit Qingzhou. She gave Jian Yu a jade pendant and told her that if she went to Qingzhou, she would give the jade pendant to the white-haired beggar in Huai'an Hutong, and someone would find her by then. she.
She asked the person if she had any doubts. It wasn't that An didn't say anything, but because her knowledge of the inside story was limited and she was afraid that she would mislead her daughter by saying the wrong thing.
"Mom never thought your grandpa and uncle were so ruthless. There must be something going on here, but my father and brother were very resolute and didn't want to see each other. Later, when I got pregnant with you, your grandfather also told me not to be persistent..."
Because her daughter was born frail, Jane's mother focused solely on taking care of her daughter and was unable to do anything else. Later, she received a reply from her sister-in-law, asking her not to send anything to her parents' house and to treat her like a stranger from now on.
Her sister-in-law, who had the best relationship with her, also had the same attitude, so An gave up her obsession with returning to her parents' home and could take care of her daughter with peace of mind.
And that white-haired beggar was a person that even Jian's father didn't know existed. The manpower left by An family in private was responsible for keeping an eye on the An family.
On weekdays, he would just make small fuss, and if something big happened, he would send her a letter. She had not heard any bad news about the An family in these years, and she gradually felt relieved.
In fact, Anshi has always had an obsession in her heart. Now that her daughter has returned, if possible, she would also like to find out what is going on.
The reason why Zhou Jinyan went to Qingzhou did not mention the An family totem. He just found an excuse and said that he was going to visit an old friend. Jian's father and mother did not doubt it.
As for these thousand soldiers, they will return to Shengjing with Father Jian and Anshi. There will be secret guards in the carriage pretending to be Prince Jing and Princess Jing, pretending to be traveling together.
After the disguise, if you look closely at the secret guard's dress, it doesn't look like it, but no one can observe it closely, so it's enough to confuse him.
Zhou Jinyan meant that it was safer for them to operate in private and hide their whereabouts. Not only did An not doubt it, she also thought that this was just the right thing!
Last night, she told her daughter not to make a big show of searching for her grandfather's family. Even if she had contact with her grandfather's family, she should do so in secret. This would make it more convenient to hide her identity.
Jian's father had no objection. Prince Jing was probably working for the emperor, so he didn't ask any more questions.
Several people separated in Jinzhou and went their separate ways.
When leaving, Mrs. An first pulled Jian Yu and asked her to take care of herself along the way. Although her son-in-law is gentle, a man is definitely not careful enough when it comes to taking care of others. As a wife, she should be coquettish when she should be coquettish...
After An finished speaking, Jian's father came to explain to his daughter again, saying that his son-in-law was a reliable person and could explain her preferences in detail, which showed that he cared deeply about her. The two of them supported each other during this trip, and it was also an opportunity to enhance the relationship between husband and wife... …
In the eyes of his parents, Zhou Jinyan has become a virtuous son-in-law!
There were endless compliments about being gentle, caring, etc. It was obvious that Zhou Jinyan had successfully "bought" people over in this day and a half!
From Jian Yu's personal point of view, if she didn't know the inside story and put herself in her parents' perspective, she would have been bribed!
They were the only two people going to Qingzhou on this trip. She didn't know what Zhou Jinyan was going to do. The other party had worked hard to conceal his identity. They even brought red plums with them.
Jian Yu complained about this, she needed red plums! Zhou Jinyan's attitude was that he could take good care of her without Hongmei.
After hearing this, Jian Yu retorted and asked her what she liked to eat, what habits she had before going to bed, what she was afraid of, how to take medicine, etc.
Taking care of Hongmei is secondary. The main thing is that Hongmei understands her body and can quickly find the right medicine for any disease. She can't do this herself!
After asking these questions, Jian Yu thought she could take Hongmei with her.
Then got slapped in the face.
Because all her questions were answered one by one by Zhou Jinyan! A good one!
It happened that Jian's father and mother came over at this time, and Hongmei was also present. After hearing Zhou Jinyan's words, everyone's faces were moved. Prince Jing was interested!
Some of the answers to Jian Yu's questions were based on Zhou Jinyan's own daily observations. Regarding medicines, he asked Hongmei when Jian Yu had a fever last time.
Hongmei explained all the medicines and only said them once, so Zhou Jinyan remembered them all.
When Zhou Jinyan didn't answer Jian Yu's questions, he didn't realize that he already knew the other person so well. The answer was already in his mind the moment she asked it.
Before, he had never remembered a person's favorite habits.
It turned out that without knowing it, I remembered things related to Jian Yu so clearly.
