Chapter 207: True Background

The lieutenant did not take Chen Jiaying into the room to speak, but sat down at a stone table in the small courtyard. Fastest updates

At this time, the autumn is high and cool, and this place is surrounded by mountains, sitting in the courtyard is cool but there is no chill, and it can also avoid the suspicion of melons and plums.

The guard brought two cups of coarse tea and disappeared into the darkness.

"Miss Chen, if you have something to say, you might as well speak up. If I can say it, I will tell you bluntly. After sitting down, the lieutenant got straight to the point.

Chen Jiaying nodded and said, "Thank you, sir." The folk girl came today to ask for help from adults. ”

"I don't know what?"

"The folk girl wants to ask the adults to take me into Beijing." Chen Jiaying said solemnly.

The lieutenant frowned, not knowing why Chen Jiaying would make such an abrupt request.

He would not be so naΓ―ve as to think that the down-and-out-turned, well-informed girl in front of him would take a fancy to him.

This kind of thing may still be possible if it is replaced by a suave scholar, but if it is replaced by a big-headed soldier, it is basically a myth and legend.

It seems that there is no fairy in mythology who will have any romantic stories with a soldier, even Dong Yongna is a cowherd.

He is also a big farmer.

"Why does the girl want to enter Beijing?" The lieutenant asked in a deep voice.

"The people want to go to Beijing to see His Royal Highness the Regent." Chen Jiaying was blunt.

But it sounded like a thunderclap in the lieutenant's ears, and he almost couldn't hold back his feet.

In the hearts of all the soldiers of the Qin army, Jiang Chuan was the absolute supreme founder, the goal they had to defend desperately, and even their beliefs.

Anything about Jiangchuan is worthy of their attention with their lives.

"Why did the girl want to see His Highness?" The lieutenant's voice suddenly became extremely cold, his eyes were staring directly at Chen Jiaying, and his hand was even on the handle of the revolver at his waist.

Chen Jiaying felt as if the temperature around her had dropped several degrees in an instant, and the lieutenant's cold gaze made her feel as if she had been locked by a tiger.

Rao is she has always been generous and calm, but at this moment, she can't help but lose her face, and her body can't help shrinking back, with a look of horror in her eyes.

The atmosphere was eeriely quiet for a while.

Looking at Chen Jiaying's expression, the lieutenant realized that he had overreacted a little.

If Chen Jiaying had bad intentions, she would find a way to do it in the meal today, so why bother to come to her alone at night and tell her bluntly.

The lieutenant relaxed a little, looked at Chen Jiaying and said in a deep voice: "This matter is very important, and I will tell the girl frankly." Otherwise, the girl will bear all the consequences. ”

Chen Jiaying finally came to her senses, and she realized that she was indeed a little abrupt.

"My lord forgives her sins, and the people don't have any bad intentions. If you want to enter Beijing to see Your Highness, you just want to find someone. If you want to find him, only His Royal Highness the Prince Regent can help the people in this world, so he dared to ask to see the adult. ”

Chen Jiaying sat up straight and said with a wry smile.

"Could it be the brother you said before that you went out to study and the audio is complete?" The lieutenant remembered what Chen Jiaying said in the afternoon.

"It's to find my missing brother. Don't hide it from adults, the folk girl is originally from Jiangnan, surnamed Liu. My brother Liu Yong, who went out to study three years ago, still had correspondence at first, but then the news was cut off, and now his life and death are uncertain.

Two years ago, the people's girl's hometown was plagued by the Japanese invaders, and the people's daughter had no choice but to escape from her hometown with an old servant and a maid, and she came here after being displaced, and finally was taken in by my father, so she settled here.

Out of various considerations, the folk girl changed her surname to Chen, named herself Jiaying, and settled here as her father's daughter. Because I used to read some books with my brother, and I also learned some accounting and arithmetic, I can help my father a little, so my father gradually handed over the affairs of the village to me to take care of, until today. ”

Chen Jiaying's tone was indifferent when she talked about these things, but the lieutenant also wanted to know how much pain she had suffered as a little girl who fled from Jiangnan to here.

However, this is also the norm in troubled times, and Chen Jiaying is not alone.

And what she just said was similar to what the lieutenant had heard before, and the difference was nothing more than a matter of details.

In fact, Chen Laocai has such respect for Chen Jiaying, not only because she has read books and can settle accounts as Chen Jiaying said, but more importantly, Chen Jiaying saved Chen Laocai's life.

Not long after Chen Laocai took in Chen Jiaying, he fell seriously ill.

The momentum of this illness was violent, and Chen Laocai, who had always been in good health, was knocked down all of a sudden, lying on the bed and dying, looking like he was dying soon.

Chen Laocai had no sons in his life, his wife only gave birth to a few daughters for him, and in the end, only one of the youngest was left, who was only five or six years old at the time.

Chen Laocai saw that he was no longer good, and whether he had incense to inherit the family property, he was anxious and worried.

His wife is also a country woman, she has no ideas, she only knows how to cry and cry every day, and she doesn't know what to do.

In the end, Chen Jiaying held the attitude of trying it out, and personally grabbed the medicine from a prescription he had read in the medical book, and then looked for the medicine in the back mountain, and boiled the medicine himself, and finally rescued Chen Laocai from the ghost gate.

After this experience, Chen Laocai completely admired and thanked Chen Jiaying, and revealed the idea of accepting Chen Jiaying as a righteous daughter.

And Chen Jiaying not only knows how to save her life, but also writes and calculates, and does things in an orderly manner.

Based on these factors, Chen Laocai thought about leaving Chen Jiaying in Chenjiazhuang and becoming his daughter, and helping him find a son-in-law in the future, so that he could inherit his family business by giving birth to a grandson.

Chen Jiaying is also a person who values kindness, so she agreed, changed her name, stayed in Chenjiazhuang, and became the actual principal of Chenjiazhuang.

Don't look at Chen Jiaying's young age, but she is very convincing in handling things, so over time, the people in Zhuangzi are very convinced of her.

That's why the lieutenant saw it that way when he led his troops into the village.

Hearing this, coupled with the mutual confirmation of the news he heard, the lieutenant had basically believed Chen Jiaying's words.

And for Chen Jiaying, there are more points of admiration, a little woman in the troubled times is struggling to find her brother, and she can repay her benefactor so affectionately, such a person is really rare.

However, the lieutenant was not concerned about this, he was silent for a moment and then asked in a deep voice: "Even if I believe what the girl said, why does the girl think that His Highness can help you find your brother?" ”

Chen Jiaying was silent for a moment, took out a few letters from her arms and put them on the stone table, and said in a low voice: "These are a few letters that my brother wrote to me after he left. In his last letter, he said that he had failed the scientific expedition in the capital and planned to travel abroad. Since then, there has been no news of anything. ”
