Chapter 84 "The city lord has no children, and all forces are ready to take action" 16

Yu Jinshu didn't drink too much. When she was tipsy, Ye Nankun grabbed her wine glass.

"Drinking too much is harmful to your health."

Ye Nankun didn't want to offend her by getting her drunk.

He was more concerned about her body.

Besides, he didn't come here for the needs of his lower body.

He really missed her, he just wanted to see her, talk to her, watch her smile, and listen to her talk about the Wang family.

Yu Jinshu and Ye Nankun talked about the sufferings of the mulberry farmers and the experiences of the male and female workers in the weaving factory.

Ye Nankun gritted his teeth and said, "They are all lonely people."

In the past, he always felt that he had done a good job as the city lord. He built the city wall very firmly and spent a lot of energy on military affairs to ensure the safety of the people.

He will also reduce taxes and build water conservancy projects.

But after meeting Yu Jinshu, he realized that people would be separated from their wives and children because they lost their livelihood, and would be brutally harmed by evil people like Wang Sheng.

"Jinshu, fortunately you are the only one who allows me to see myself clearly."

Ye Nankun already had a plan in mind. He wanted to improve the legal system and make officials considerate of the people's sentiments and report the matter in a timely manner.

He also often visits privately incognito to learn more about the lives of the people at the bottom.

Yu Jinshu stood up and said, "I have to go back. As a woman, it is always a bad idea to go back too late."

Although Ye Nankun was reluctant to give up, he still agreed, "I'll take you back."

Yu Jinshu didn't refuse. She knew that Ye Nankun was a measured person.

After coming out of Chaoxi Restaurant, Ye Nankun didn't let Yu Jinshu get on the carriage, "Let's take a walk to eat."

Yu Jinshu was a little hesitant. Although it was night, there were still lights on the streets.

Ye Nankun took a lantern from the guard beside him, took Yu Jinshu's hand, and walked straight into the dark alley.

Yu Jinshu laughed: "City Lord, it seems like we are having an affair."

Ye Nankun interlocked with hers: "If you hadn't said you wanted to do something great in the Wang family, we wouldn't have had to be so sneaky."

Zhan Qi followed with two guards at a distance so as not to disturb them but also to protect them.

After walking for half an hour, the two of them had endless things to say.

Yu Jinshu was a modern man, and he instilled some modern ideas into the ancient city lords. For the city lords, it was a mind-opening experience that had never been heard of before, and it was indeed very beneficial to the country and the people.

In a blink of an eye, we arrived at the alleyway not far from the Wang family mansion.

The candles in the lantern have burned out, and the whole body is completely dark, and I can't see my fingers.

Yu Jinshu was afraid of the dark, so he got closer to Ye Nankun.

"Jinshu, listening to your words is worth ten years of reading!"

Ye Nankun simply threw away the lantern in his hand and held Yu Jinshu in his arms.

"It would be nice if I could recognize you earlier."

Yu Jinshu nestled in his arms, listening to his heartbeat: "I think now is the right time to meet each other. When I build the Wang family's property, if the city lord still loves me by then, then I will make a couple with the city lord. Happy mandarin ducks."

Ye Nankun was moved: "You and I are just a happy couple now, but now we can't be honest."

Unable to hold back, he bent down and kissed her forehead, then went down to kiss the tip of her nose, and then kissed her lips, out of control.

Zhan Qi and the others behind them were still walking forward slowly, because the two in front were walking very slowly, so slowly that their tempers were worn away.

But I never thought that as I walked, I heard a very harmonious sound in front of me.

Zhan Qi paused, stopped him with his hand, took a few steps back, and then turned around.

After struggling for half an hour, things returned to normal.

After exiting the alley, a very ordinary carriage was waiting here.

Ye Nankun directly carried Yu Jinshu into the carriage, and the two said goodbye. The two guards escorted Yu Jinshu back to the Wang family mansion.

It was already Haishi. The door of the Wang family's mansion opened. The concierge looked at Yu Jinshu and said respectfully: "Young Madam, Madam said that if you come back, you should go to the backyard hall. She has something to say to you."

Yu Jin wrote: "I have been tired from the Wang family's business since morning. I am tired. I have to go to the weaving factory tomorrow morning. Just go and talk to my wife."

After that, he walked towards the backyard Yixiangyuan.

She knew Qin's character, so she must be blaming her for coming back too late and wanted to scold her.

She was not that stupid, and even went to the hall to listen to Qin's long-winded lecture.

Back at Yixiangyuan, she put on a loose and soft middle coat after bathing and was about to go to bed when she heard Pearl say from outside that Mrs. Qin was here.

Are you annoyed? At this time, he actually came to the door.

But after all, she is the mother-in-law, so it’s hard to ignore her.

Yu Jinshu put on a cloak and walked out, going to the hall.

In the small hall of Yixiangyuan, Mrs. Qin was holding a tea cup in her hand. She was so angry that her hands were shaking. When she saw Yu Jinshu appearing at the door, she immediately threw the tea cup in front of Yu Jinshu.

Yu Jinshu stopped and looked at the broken porcelain and tea stains on the ground. He was not angry, but very calm.

She walked in avoiding the broken porcelain and tea stains, raised her hand to cover her mouth and yawned, looking very sleepy.

"Mother, why are you so angry?"

Mrs. Qin stood up in anger, pointed at Yu Jinshu and cursed: "Are you asking questions knowingly?"

Yu Jinshu shook his head with an innocent look on his face: "Mother, I don't know! What mistake did I make? I got up at 9 o'clock today and went to the weaving factory to deal with Wang Sheng and others. I also helped the workers deal with their grievances in order to stabilize the weaving factory. I have just come back after being so busy. I heard the concierge say that you were waiting for me in the lobby, but I was too tired, so I asked the concierge to talk to you. What's wrong with me? Is it possible that I am so tired that I have to go to talk to my mother? Say hello? Doesn’t that seem like you are too inhumane, mother, and too harsh on your daughter-in-law?"

"You..." Mrs. Qin pointed at Yu Jinshu, her teeth itching with anger, "I haven't said anything about your faults, but you said that I am inhumane and harsh on you?"

Yu Jinshu sneered: "Isn't it? It's so late. I've been busy all day for the Wang family, and now I just want to rest early. Mother, you still want to come to my place and throw the tea cup in front of me."

Mrs. Qin suddenly felt embarrassed, as if she had really made a mistake, "You are such a sharp-tongued person, but I can't speak to you. Let me ask you, if you didn't come back with Zeqing in the evening, where did you go?"

Yu Jinshu said coldly: "After a tiring day, I wanted to take a rest, so I ordered some wine and food at the restaurant, just for fun."

Qin said angrily: "I have been in charge of the family for many years, but I have never gone out at night like you."

"Haha..." Yu Jinshu laughed twice, "Mother, you have to recognize one thing. You have been in charge of the family for many years. Just because you never go out and only stare at the account books sent by each factory, you think you have no control over the Wang family's industry. Knowing everything, which led to the decline of the Wang family."

"You..." Qin was shy and anxious.
