After her husband died, her parents came to force her to remarry

Chapter 300 Can You Try to Accept Me?

"My escort agency was left by my master."

After hearing what he said, Jiang Xiaohe felt it would be a lie to say she didn't sympathize with him. She said with emotion, "Then your master is really a good person."

Chang Wei added some firewood and said leisurely, "It's a pity that good people don't get good rewards. My master passed away early, and I was just an adult. He was escorting a caravan and was robbed by bandits when he passed through Zezhou. Not only did he not come back, but he also didn't have time to come back."

"Are those bandits so rampant?"

Chang Wei knew about her past and knew that her husband also died at the hands of bandits.

"Yes, Zezhou was already in chaos, and it was far from the provincial capitals on both sides, so neither side could take care of it. In addition, the imperial court had previously sent troops to encircle and suppress the rebellion, but in the end it was the imperial court and the local residents who suffered heavy losses. After failing to suppress the rebellion once or twice, the imperial court stopped caring about it."

"Are we just going to leave it alone like this?"

Chang Wei shook his head and said nothing.

Seeing that he was also tired, Jiang Xiaohe said, "You should have a good rest first. We will go back as soon as it gets light tomorrow morning."

Chang Wei nodded. He was indeed very tired.

It was a bit cold in the forest at night, so Jiang Xiaohe burned the fire a little more vigorously and stayed around it to keep warm. Seeing Chang Wei fall asleep against a tree, Jiang Xiaohe didn't know what she was thinking and fell asleep herself.

The next morning, the two woke up at dawn, their stomachs rumbling with hunger. Looking at the wild fruits, Jiang Xiaohe wiped her teeth, frowned, squinted her eyes, and ate two.

Then he helped Chang Wei walk outside.

When we got outside, we walked for a short while before we saw a village.

"We are saved. There is a village ahead." Jiang Xiaohe said excitedly.

Chang Wei didn't say anything, but just stopped and didn't move.

Jiang Xiaohe looked at him puzzledly.

Chang Wei was also looking at her.

"Jiang Xiaohe, now that we're out of here, can you try to accept me?"

Jiang Xiaohe looked at him, saw the pleading in his eyes, and didn't speak for a long time. She wanted to refuse, but there was a voice telling her not to refuse. She wanted to agree, but she was still hesitant.

Chang Wei smiled bitterly and was about to speak when Jiang Xiaohe said, "Let me think about it. My mind is a little confused."

Chang Wei's eyes lit up: "Okay, think about it carefully, I'm not in a hurry."

Jiang Xiaohe couldn't help but smile: "Can we leave now?"

When the two arrived at the village, Jiang Xiaohe lied that they were a couple going to visit relatives far away. Unexpectedly, the horse lost control on the road and they got lost from the people they were visiting. They wanted to ask if they had any ox carts that could take them to the town or county.

When the villagers saw that the two of them were covered in dirt, they believed them and said that there was a market in their town today and the ox cart had not set out yet, so they could take them for a ride.

They both breathed a sigh of relief and got on the ox cart. When getting off the cart, Jiang Xiaohe took off the only hairpin on her head and gave it to the ox cart driver.

He picked up a wooden stick and casually fixed his hair.

The hairpin was obviously very valuable, so the oxcart driver did not dare to accept it.

Jiang Xiaohe smiled and said, "You have helped us a lot today. This hairpin is our way of repaying you."

The ox cart master then happily took the hairpin.

Chang Wei took out a jade pendant and gave it to him, then took back Jiang Xiaohe's hairpin: "Use this, it's more valuable than hers."

"thanks, thanks."

Chang Wei took the wooden stick off her head and put the hairpin back on her.

After they walked away, Jiang Xiaohe pulled Chang Wei and said, "You are stupid. My hairpin is more than enough for him to take, but you gave him a more expensive jade pendant."

Chang Wei looked at her with a smile: "I see that you like this hairpin very much. If you give it to him, you will have no more."

Jiang Xiaohe blushed and turned away, but said, "People like you don't know how to do business at all."

Chang Wei smiled and said nothing.

The two had not walked far when they saw someone running towards them in the distance. Jiang Xiaohe's face changed immediately, and she protected Chang Wei behind her calmly. Chang Wei was injured, and she was stronger than him now.

Chang Wei held her hand and said, "Don't be afraid, we are one family."

The man came up and bowed to the two of them: "Master Chang, my master found out about this yesterday and ordered us to come here, but when we arrived, we didn't see you. But don't worry, we have dealt with the people from the Chamber of Commerce."

Jiang Xiaohe was confused by what she heard.

"He's your elder brother Meng's man." Chang Wei explained.

Then he asked him, "Is your master okay?"

"Master Chang, don't worry. Master, I'm fine. They attacked you yesterday. Master was angry, so he took people to directly wipe out the Chamber of Commerce's main nest. Unexpectedly, there were only a few people left inside the Chamber of Commerce, and they arrested all the people in charge of the Chamber of Commerce in a short time."

"So, is the Chamber of Commerce considered bankrupt now?" Jiang Xiaohe asked.

The man cupped his hands and said, "You can say that Luo Mingfeng has sent his elite troops to kill you and Master Chang."

Jiang Xiaohe looked at Chang Wei speechlessly: "I helped Brother Meng by mistake."

Chang Wei also laughed, meaning that those people yesterday were not easy to deal with.

The two got on the carriage. Jiang Xiaohe wanted to go back to the town, but Chang Wei wanted to go to the county town as he had other things to do.

A group of people were divided into two teams to send them off separately.

Before leaving, Chang Wei said to Jiang Xiaohe: "Take what I said to heart and think about it carefully."

Jiang Xiaohe nodded slightly.

Meng Hetang's men sent Jiang Xiaohe to the town and then returned to the city to report.

When Jiang Xiaohe arrived at the restaurant, she went straight to the backyard and returned to her room, where she fell on the bed and fell asleep. When she woke up again, Qin Mei was already standing in front of her.

Jiang Xiaohe remembered that she was injured and asked her if she was feeling better.

"Don't worry, ma'am. People like us who practice martial arts are often injured all year round, so our injuries will heal faster than yours."

Jiang Xiaohe finally felt relieved.

"Madam, are you going back to the village? I'll ask Qingshan to harness the carriage."

Jiang Xiaohe nodded, stood up and changed her dirty clothes. On the way back, Jiang Xiaohe asked Qin Mei, "Where is Manager Chang?"

"He went back to the county."

Seeing that Qin Mei was a little unhappy, she didn't dare to ask any more.

When she got home, she saw that Zhang Fu's face was full of worry, and she felt relieved only when she saw her.

"It'll be good to come back, it'll be good to come back."

Jiang Xiaohe smiled slightly: "I'm sorry to have made Dad worried."

Zhang Fu shook his head.

She looked around, and Zhang Fu said, "Your mother took Chuan'er to the side to look after the baby. Don't worry, I didn't tell your mother about those things, so as not to worry her."

After returning home and spending several days leisurely, Chang Wei sent her a letter saying that Meng Hetang had teamed up with Xu Changan to completely eradicate the Chamber of Commerce. Now all the shops in the county were grateful to Meng Hetang and the county magistrate. In the future, there would not be so many rules and clauses for doing business in the county. As long as you have capital, you can do business.

Jiang Xiaohe smiled slightly when she saw this and said, "Yes, that's right."

Then, Chang Wei asked her how she thought about it. But he also said that if she hadn't thought it through yet, there was no need to rush. He would come and listen to her in person when his injury got better.

"Madam, you are blushing." Qin Mei said.

Jiang Xiaohe put the letter away: "No, you read it wrong."
