Chapter 218 No choice
Shen Yanfeng followed Jiang Sujin to a very spacious place where people were busy laying the foundation.
Shen Yanfeng: "Susu, what are you planning to build?"
Jiang Sujin: "I plan to build a large winery. We have more grain than we can eat. We can use it to make wine and sell it to various places. We will definitely make a lot of money."
Shen Yanfeng: "Your idea is very good. We really need some other ways to make a living here."
Jiang Sujin: "In addition, I also want to build some textile factories and factories producing daily necessities. We need to be self-sufficient and cannot rely on Donggang for everything."
"If there is an emergency and we cannot enter Donggang, the lives of the islanders in Yazhou will be restricted."
Shen Yanfeng: "Yes, Susu is absolutely right."
Jiang Sujin: "We have too few people in Yazhou. We still need people. Only with people can we have vitality."
Shen Yanfeng: "Yes, you are right."
As he said this, he couldn't help but hug Jiang Sujin, leaning against her head, and whispered, "Why do you know so much?"
Jiang Sujin opened her bright black eyes, looked at Shen Yanfeng and said, "My father is the top scholar, so naturally he taught me more than others."
Shen Yanfeng: "My father-in-law is indeed knowledgeable and talented, but he has a strange temper."
Jiang Sujin: "He's not weird at all. It's just that you always contradicted him in the past. It's good that he didn't settle with you."
Hearing this, Shen Yanfeng couldn't help but smile and said, "Yes, yes, after my father-in-law resigns, let them come to Yazhou to live out their retirement, okay?"
Jiang Sujin: "Well, the scenery here is beautiful, my parents will definitely like it."
Shen Yanfeng looked at Jiang Sujin's smiling face and couldn't help but bent down and kissed her.
Jiang Sujin blushed and pursed her lips, then pushed Shen Yanfeng away: "You are so frivolous."
Shen Yanfeng: "Whenever I'm with the princess, I can't help myself."
Jiang Sujin rolled her eyes at him, then turned and walked back.
Shen Yanfeng looked at her back, curled the corners of his mouth, and then followed her closely.
After experiencing this incident, the two people seemed to be closer than before.
After all, they have experienced the test of life and death. What feelings could be purer than this?
For a period of time afterwards, Shen Yanfeng was busy with government affairs, while Jiang Sujin was in charge of people's livelihood and economy, and the two of them cooperated seamlessly.
The entire Yazhou seemed to have come alive and the islanders felt safe.
Those who had fled Yazhou Island before returned to Yazhou Island one after another after hearing that Shen Yanfeng had returned.
With Jiang Sujin setting an example, the women in Yazhou now have spiritual support.
Everyone regards the princess as an idol, because she is not only beautiful, but also has a good business sense. More importantly, she and her husband are very loving, which is what they envy the most.
Maybe it’s because the water in Yazhou is so nourishing, so Jiang Sujin is becoming more and more radiant now.
Shen Yanfeng would go to the beach to watch the sunset with Jiang Sujin every day without fail. This has become a habit for the two of them.
Jiang Sujin is so beautiful under the afterglow of the sun that one can't take their eyes off her.
It is also because of this that Shen Yanfeng would always kiss Jiang Sujin deeply before the sun sets.
Before night fell, the two got in the carriage and left together.
That evening, when the two men returned to the palace, they saw Caiyue wiping her tears, while Linfeng was standing beside her with an innocent look on his face.
Jiang Sujin: "What happened?"
Lin Feng curled his lips, then whispered: "I don't know what's going on."
Upon hearing this, Caiyue couldn't help but stare at Linfeng with wide eyes: "You don't know? You look innocent, I'm the one making trouble, right?"
Seeing this, Lin Feng quickly softened his tone and said, "No, I'm just making trouble, okay?"
Caiyue: "Is it okay? Look at how unconvinced you are."
Lin Feng: "How can I not accept it?"
Jiang Sujin: "Okay, Linfeng, you go down first. I'll talk to Caiyue."
Upon hearing this, Lin Feng quickly responded, then turned and left.
Jiang Sujin said to Shen Yanfeng, "Your Majesty, please go and get busy first. I want to talk to Caiyue alone."
Upon hearing this, Shen Yanfeng couldn't help but glance at Jiang Sujin: "Only you dare to chase me away."
Jiang Sujin frowned and looked at him, then took Caiyue into the dormitory.
As soon as she entered the inner room, Caiyue couldn't help but burst into tears again.
Jiang Sujin sat on the couch, looked at her and said, "What happened?"
Caiyue wiped the tears from her eyes with a handkerchief, then sniffed and said, "Miss, I feel that Linfeng has changed his mind."
Jiang Sujin: "Lin Feng is so stubborn, how can he change his mind?"
Caiyue: "Really, now he is not as attentive to me as before. What's more important is that recently there is a little maid who has been eyeing him every day. I even saw that maid giving Linfeng a purse that time."
"It was because Lin Feng helped her teach that cunning slave a lesson that time. Since then, she has been trying every possible way to block Lin Feng. Even when I warned her, she still confidently accused me of monopolizing Lin Feng and not giving him the opportunity to take a concubine."
Jiang Sujin couldn't help but raise her eyebrows when she heard this: "There's actually such a shameless maid here?"
Caiyue: "Miss, you don't know, these maids all want to fly up to the tree and become phoenixes. They dare not provoke the prince, so they go to provoke the trusted adults around the prince. After all, if they get close to any one of them, they will never have to worry about food and drink."
Jiang Sujin: "Then tell me who that maid is, and I will transfer her away directly."
When Caiyue heard this, she couldn't hold back her tears again: "I just wanted to ask the young lady to transfer that bitch away, but after I told Linfeng about this, he actually said that I was petty and spoke well of that maid."
Jiang Sujin: "Are you crying just because of this?"
Caiyue felt even more aggrieved when she heard this: "I don't want to, but I can't control myself at all."
Jiang Sujin: "Women should never let themselves become jealous women. Doing so will not only make men feel that they are very popular, but also make women become unlovable and ungentle."
Caiyue: "So am I going to let this bitch jump around in front of me?"
Jiang Sujin: "Of course not. You have to find a way to make this woman show her true colors, so that the man can also discover her true face."
"Of course, if Lin Feng still insists on having his own way after discovering the woman's true identity, it proves that he really likes that maid. In this case, you don't have to stop him, because you can stop the person, but not the heart."
When Caiyue heard this, her tears couldn't stop flowing.
Jiang Sujin: "Caiyue, do you think you like Linfeng?"
Caiyue: "I didn't like him at first, but later... I couldn't control myself."
Jiang Sujin: "I advise you not to love too deeply. Give each other some breathing space. No matter how good something is, if it is in front of you every day, you will get tired of it one day."
Caiyue: "Then how can I hold a man's heart firmly like Miss?"
Jiang Sujin: "Don't try to capture a man's heart. Instead of trying to capture a man's heart, it's better to think about improving yourself."
Caiyue: "I am just a maid, there is no need to promote me."
Jiang Sujin: "Although you are a maid, you are the chief maid by my side. All the servants in my palace, big and small, must obey you."
"Besides that, you have to accumulate your own wealth, so that he can trust you and give you all his money. The stronger you are, the more likely he will approach you."
Caiyue couldn't help but blink when she heard this: "I have never thought about this. I am really simple-minded."
Jiang Sujin: "Remember, no matter what the circumstances, you have to change your headwear every day and give yourself a new look every day. Only in this way can you maintain a different sense of freshness."
Upon hearing this, Caiyue suddenly remembered that she had been wearing the same hairpin for more than half a month.
"I always feel that I should spend money frugally. When I have children in the future..."
Jiang Sujin: "It's right to be frugal. It doesn't mean you have to buy a lot of jewelry. At the very least, you should have more than a dozen sets of jewelry. If you change a set every day, you only need to change it once every two weeks."
"In fact, if you save half of your monthly salary, it will be enough for your descendants to marry and have children. What's more, you don't even have children yet, but you've already started making plans for your descendants. Don't you think that you have worked so hard to save money, but in the end, it will all be given to illegitimate children as dowries? Don't you think it's unfair?"
Caiyue felt enlightened when she heard this. After marrying Linfeng, she became much more frugal and less fond of dressing up. It might be because she felt that she had a man now, so she no longer had the desire to seek a mate as before.
"Miss, you are absolutely right."
Jiang Sujin: "Okay, don't be upset. I'll give you some jewelry later, so don't be reluctant to wear them. As for the little maid, I'll help you meet her another day. She's just a little maid. It's just a matter of a word from me. Just don't worry about it."
Upon hearing this, Caiyue couldn't help but smile: "Thank you very much, young lady, for your reward."
Only after Caiyue went out did they start preparing dinner.
Shen Yanfeng's stomach had been growling with hunger for a long time. Since Jiang Sujin didn't ask for food, he himself didn't want to eat either.
After finishing their meal and washing up, the two lay on the bed. Jiang Sujin told Shen Yanfeng about Caiyue and Linfeng.
Shen Yanfeng leaned his head and looked at Jiang Sujin with curiosity, saying, "You never seem to worry about which maid seduces me?"
Jiang Sujin looked at him, raised her eyebrows, then smoothed her long hair and slowly lay down on the bed.
"You can guard against people, but not their hearts. Instead of doing that, you might as well live a free and easy life."
"If you can meet a beautiful woman who makes your heart beat faster, that would be your blessing."
"It proves that I'm lucky enough to have a better meal."
Upon hearing this, Shen Yanfeng couldn't help but reach out and pull Jiang Sujin into his arms: "Who can eat better than me? Except for you, everyone else is just chaff in my eyes."
Jiang Sujin: "But I...will eventually grow old."
Shen Yanfeng: "When you are old, I will be old too. By then, I will no longer be picky about food."
Jiang Sujin's face darkened when she heard that: "Why do I feel so uncomfortable listening to you? I guess you've just started to give in by then!"
Upon hearing this, Shen Yanfeng couldn't help but let out a dry laugh: "That's not what I meant."
Jiang Sujin glanced at him sideways, then pushed him away: "Go to sleep, or get out!"
