Chapter 267, Honey Confidence

Sister Ying knew that her mother was doing her best, so she didn’t refute.

Originally, she was quite afraid of getting married, but if the person she married was Brother Rong, she would not be so afraid.

Moreover, in this world, if a man and a woman stay together without getting married, they will be scolded to death.

If it were a place that was extremely feudal, both men and women would sink into the pond.

The folk customs in Jiangnan are not bad, but men and women who are together without status will be criticized by others, which is very harmful to the family. So her mother wants them to get married, so let's get married. They will get married sooner or later anyway, so she can hide. but.

Furthermore, it would be a secret joy to think about marrying a little Pan An-like appearance like Brother Rong.

If they have children in the future, they may be very cute.

Mrs. Wu saw the nymphomaniac look on her face and secretly thought that this girl, as expected, her three senses follow her facial features, she is just a little nymphomaniac.

As he was saying this, he saw the teasing laughter of several men coming from a boat next door.

That voice sounded inexplicably familiar, and Sister Ying suddenly remembered it, "It seems to be that toad?"

Before, Chen Lin came to Liang's house every day, looking as if he wanted to meet her by chance, but this made Sister Ying disgusted.

Now listening to the voice of the male duck, I knew it was Chen Lin.

That guy is ordinary-looking, with the appearance and figure of a passer-by. There is nothing outstanding about him, but he is very confident.

 Chen Lin always feels that he is very good and thinks that ordinary girls are not good enough for him. If the girl he likes doesn't like him, he also feels that the girl doesn't know how to praise him.

Just like this moment, Chen Lin was sitting in the cabin and said to other colleagues, "That Magistrate Liang doesn't seem to be more experienced than us. He is just one step ahead of us, otherwise he would not be the prefect."

Several officials who were promoted from small places also thought so, and privately they were not convinced by Liang's promotion.

They are the same people as Chen Lin. They are ordinary, but they are extremely confident and think that they are the best.

In addition, their family is not as wealthy as Chen Lin, so Chen Lin is the center of the family, and they come out every now and then to complain about the unfairness of the world.

Jing Shirong has a sensitive ear and can naturally hear the conversations of those people.

Especially when she heard Chen Lin say bad things about Liang Jin, Jing Shirong's eyes darkened, and his originally gentle eyes suddenly turned cold.

He glanced at the officials with cold eyes, memorizing the faces of those people one by one, and planned to send these people to other small and remote places when he returned, letting them train in poor places for a few more years, and save a lot of money to raise a new batch. The white-eyed wolf comes out.

Because the two ships were close to each other, Mrs. Wu and Sister Ying also heard the conversation on the next ship and immediately frowned.

Jing Shirong went to get the screen and blocked Sister Ying and Wu so that people outside could not see clearly. However, the window was still open and the conversation on the ship next door could be heard.

Chen Lin didn't know that Wu and the others were next door, and kept complaining to their colleagues.

“You don’t know that someone plotted against me the day before yesterday and I was almost shot to death by an arrow. I suspect that Magistrate Liang wants to harm me.”

Other officials were stunned when they heard this, and their eyes widened, "No way? Is it true or false?"

Everyone looked at him one after another, thinking that he was fine, "Aren't you fine? How can you say that someone is plotting against you?"

When Chen Lin saw that they were gone, he turned his **** towards them and said, "Look, this is gauze. Fortunately, the injury is not serious, otherwise I wouldn't be able to get out."

Jing Shirong had saved his strength that day and didn't really want to kill Chen Lin. Who would have thought that this person who couldn't carry it could actually push the injury to Liang Jin. Chen Lin said to other colleagues, "I think Magistrate Liang definitely doesn't want me to stay here. He is afraid that if I do better than him, I will take his position, so he sent someone to plot against me."

“If I hadn’t been blessed with great fortune, I would definitely have died at his hands.”

Other officials were dubious after hearing this, some believed it and some didn't.

They believe that Liang Jin is not as capable as them, and the reason why he was promoted to prefect is simply because he came to Jiangnan earlier than they did.

They don’t believe it because they think Chen Lin is no better than a few of them. It would be a bit too confident to say that Liang Jin harmed him.

Sister Ying laughed angrily when she heard this.

A group of very confident people, but still think others are too confident? How ridiculous.

She and Mrs. Wu looked at each other, not bothering to argue with the group of people.

Just a group of confident fools, without them taking action, those few people can start fighting among themselves, and soon they will all be destroyed on their own, without them having to take action at all.

Jing Shirong also found it ridiculous after hearing this. He didn’t even know how the promotion list was selected this time.

Those four or five officials couldn't pass the assessment at all, and I don't know how they were promoted?

Wu guessed, "I probably got here because of the money and connections."

Officials in the capital can still be carefully screened, but the further down, the hands of the court cannot reach so far, and the officials below are not so formal.

Like Chen Lin, he got here through connections.

While enjoying the help of his future father-in-law, he was also thinking about Sister Ying, trying to marry Sister Ying, and then squeeze Liang Jin out, and he wanted to take advantage of every advantage.

The reason why I stayed with a few colleagues was because other serious officials didn't bother to associate with them, so I had no choice but to associate with these little sesame officials from poor places, otherwise Chen Lin would look down on them.

Those officials also thought so in their hearts. They looked down on each other in their hearts, but they pretended to smile on their faces.

A certain junior official said, "Brother Chen, I heard that you have been very close to the eldest daughter of Magistrate Liang's family recently. What is the relationship between you two?"

They also thought about being a nepotism, but it was a pity that Chen Lin got there first. At this moment, they all wanted to find out whether Chen Lin and Sister Ying were successful.

If it succeeds, they will definitely file a complaint secretly. It is best to tell Chen Lin's future father-in-law that Chen Lin is trying to climb a new branch here and see how that adult will deal with Chen Lin.

If it doesn't work out, they will go up on their own and try to meet Sister Ying by chance, so as to get into nepotism as soon as possible so that they can make a fortune.

Chen Lin naturally couldn't let them succeed, so he said vaguely, "It's nothing, it's just something that happened by chance."

He is not stupid, so he cannot do these things in front of these people, lest these people become jealous of him and complain to his future father-in-law.

In the future, the father-in-law’s official position is high or low. In addition, his father-in-law has been an official for longer than him, so his power will definitely be greater than his. If he is found to be looking for other ladies, he will die without losing his skin, so every time he looks for Sister Ying always carries these colleagues on her back.

But these people were looking at him with such gossip, and if he didn't ask for help, they would definitely harm him, so Chen Lin walked around for a long time without saying anything.

Seeing how cunning he was, this group of colleagues felt disgusted in their hearts, but smiled on their faces, "That's right. Brother Chen already has a fiancée. How can he care about the eldest daughter of Magistrate Liang? It seems that we still have a chance."

After saying that, several wretched and confident men laughed one after another.
