The Eldest Young Master's Gentle Wife (20)
Jiang Zhe quietly looked at Li Cai Wei, "Want to know?"
Li Cai Wei: "If its about you, I want to know everything."
Jiang Zhe sighed and pulled her to his side, the lights was dim as he leaned closer to the woman's ear.
Li Cai Wei subconsciously shrunk her neck, evoking the sound of a mans light chuckle.
Jiang Zhe lovingly rubbed her earlobe, but his tone had a rare seriousness.
Li Wei Cais pupils shrank, stunned for a long time, before suddenly turning her head, sighing: Jiang Zhe, your guts are too big.
Jiang Zhe returned her gaze, Is it?
Li Cai Wei looked serious, solemnly nodding. "You are the only one I have seen so far, who has the biggest guts."
Jiang Zhe: "Afraid?"
Li Cai Wei nodded.
Disappointment flashed through Jiang Zhes eyes, but he soon recovered to normal, I still have some money to arrange a good future for youyou
His lips were blocked, a pair of arms wrapped around his neck. The alcohol rushed to his head, ill-timed, almost making Jiang Zhe unclear whether he was hallucinating, or whether it was reality.
He touched the woman's face, but only felt wetness beneath his hand, "Cai Wei?"
Li Cai Wei: "So thats what you think of me, that Im afraid of death and not willing to stay by your side?
Jiang Zhe: "Cai Wei, I"
Li Cai Wei: "Jiang Zhe, I am a woman. I have been sheltered for the past 20 years. How could I not be afraid?"
Jiang Zhe hugged her. "I'm sorry, Im sorry. I thought wrongly, its my bad."
Li Cai Weis eyes were blurred by her tears, making Jiang Zhe feel even more regretful. He held the sides of her face, and lowered his forehead to hers, whispering softly: "I was wrong, I shouldnt have thought that way. Can you forgive me?"
Li Cai Wei did not respond.
Jiang Zhe said helplessly: "In the future we will be in the same boat, standing together to face any difficulty. I will not let you go again."
Li Cai Wei: "Really?"
Jiang Zhe smiled and nodded: "I swear."
Li Cai Wei pursed her lips and laughed. Just that, her tears were still there, flowing along her smiling expression, it added a few laugh lines, making it seem true.
Jiang Zhe held her, kissed her forehead, cheeks, and then slowly moved to her lips, unexpectedly soft.
He tentatively tried to open the gap, and easily attack her mouth.
The bed creaked gently, unable to hide the spring glow in the room.
The next day, Jiang Zhe got up early. Shui Gen was busy in the kitchen preparing breakfast, and was surprised to see Jiang Zhe.
Shui Gen: "Eldest, Big Brother, what are you doing here? If youre hungry, breakfast will be done in a short while."
Jiang Zhe said simply: "I will do it."
Shui Gen almost bit his tongue, "Wha, what?"
Jiang Zhe: "I said that Im going to make breakfast, you start the fire."
Shui Gen had doubts in his heart.
Jiang Zhe: "Then you go out, I can do it alone."
"No." Shui Gen immediately refused. "Then I will start the fire."
Jiang Zhe didnt do much, steamed egg, rice porridge, egg wraps, cold cucumber slices, and finally a sandwich.
Shui Gen looked on, dazed.
Shui Gen: "Eldest, Big Brother, how do you know how to make all these?"
Jiang Zhe: "I read about it and casually tried. Looks like it turned out alright.
Shui Gen was convinced, Big Brother was Big Brother. The things that he casually tried his hand at, he also performed better than him.
During breakfast, Father and Mother Jiang was very surprised, Shui Gens handicraft today has improved.
Shui Gen waved. It wasnt me, it was Big Brother. I just started the fire.
Father and Mother Jiang were shocked. "Zheer, when did you learn to cook?"
Jiang Zhe shook his head. "I dont know how to cook. Its just that these breakfast items are very easy, I could do it after reading once. Today, I had the heart to try, but if you like it, I can make more tomorrow morning."
Mother Jiang liked it very much, but she couldn't bear for her son to be tired out, and was momentarily conflicted.
Jiang Zhe: "I always get up early anyway, so its an easy task."
Mother Jiang: "Then, alright."
Li Cai Wei tilted her head to look at him, her eyebrows arched, eating a spoonful of steamed eggs, a sweet feeling seeping into her heart.
The atmosphere of the Jiang family was as harmonious as ever.
The days passed, and the outside world changed rapidly, but Yunlan City still remained ignorant to these changes.
Li Ming didnt tell his sister that he had not been to school for a long time. Since that time he had talked with his brother-in-law, his ambitions had changed.
He wanted to help this country in a more practical way.
He followed Jiang Zhe, met many people and made many companions. Together, they studied topics that they had never touched before.
Jiang Zhe opened a new door for them. The first time he saw the lab talked about by the foreigners, and the experimental equipment, he didnt know where Jiang Zhe got it, but he knew that these things were definitely very precious.
When he first used it, his hands were so stiff that he couldn't move. It was Jiang Zhe who taught him first-hand how to operate it, allowing him to greatly relax.
Jiang Zhes english was very fluent, and he could easily talk to foreigners. Jiang Zhe knew a lot, from astronomy to geography. Whether it was the local history or foreign history, he was very familiar with them.
There were also the mathematics, physics, chemistry, biology and the like that he, Li Ming, couldn't understand. He had never even heard of it before, but Jiang Zhe not only understood, but could even teach them, his words humorous and vivid. Along with the lab, they learned even more quickly.
It was also at that time that he clearly understood. Perhaps in this life, he could never reach the height of his brother-in-law.
However, being able to learn behind such a man with superb intelligence was his lifes greatest fortune.
Jiang Zhe still wanted to do many things, but there was not much time left.
Three years passed by, and Yunlan city completely fell into purgatory.
Under the system's reminder, Jiang Zhe took his relatives, students and all his familys assets and left early, seeking refuge in a country that would be established in the future. At this time, it was just a small force that had no achievements.
To this eras small force, the arrival of Jiang Zhe and others was tantamount to sending charcoal during winter. In particular, the group of students led by Jiang Zhe, the knowledge they have learned were all intangible treasures.
With the addition of Jiang Zhe and others, their casualties plummeted, not to mention that Jiang Zhe occasionally gave them some so-called "enlightenment" in their weaponry.
Without so much painful bloodshed sacrifices, this initial small force, broke through the ground and grew all the way, establishing a new country ahead of the original plot, ending this troubled era.
Coincidentally, that year, Li Cai Wei was finally pregnant.
Jiang Zhe seemingly had some kind of intuition. After discussing with his wife, no matter if it was a girl or boy, they would name him Jian Guo, Jiang Jian Guo*.
Jiang Zhe lived happily ever after, and even after Li Cai Wei passed away, he was filled with gratitude. He personally sent off his most beloved person, suffered from grief alone, before he finally closed his eyes and fell into his final rest.
The system gave him sufficient time to for him to adjust his emotions.
After an undeterminable amount of time, Jiang Zhe woke up in a sea of white.
Jiang Zhe: "How am I here?"
System: "This is for you to adjust your emotions. Now that youre awake, let's go to the next world."
Jiang Zhe: "Wait."
System: "What?"
Jiang Zhe: "How is she?"
The systems tone was slightly proud, "Much better, so you better work harder. Lets go.
Jiang Zhe: "En."
The next second, the two disappeared from their spot.
"Quick, quickly, don't let Jiang Zhe run."
The sky was already dark, surrounded by weeds, tall trees and branches intertwined to form distorted shadows.
A group of tall men with torches kept searching on the mountain road.
Suddenly, a clear voice in the crowd shouted: "I found Jiang Zhe, quickly come."
Everyone rushed over. The torch dispelled the darkness, and under the orange glow, a thin young man laid on the ground, it was unknown if he was alive or dead.
The leading man kicked him, "Hey, Jiang Zhe, dont you fucking pretend to die."
Someone nearby echoed: "Yeah, Jiang Zhe, don't think that you can escape punishment by fainting."
After a while, when the person on the ground still didnt react, the crowd finally felt there was something wrong. Someone immediately squatted down to carefully pull open Jiang Zhes collar.
"Ah, blood, theres blood."
The leading man's pupils shrank and he squatted down to carefully look at it. The crowd found out then that Jiang Zhe's forehead was full of blood.
Just because he was lying down, they didn't see it.
The leading man picked up Jiang Zhe and ran to the village, the others following closely.
Although Jiang Zhes was terrible for escaping selfishly, now that it was a matter of life and death, it was better to treat him first, then talk.
*Jian Guo Meaning to establish a country or build up a country
TN: End of the first arc. Second arc may start late next week due to CNY break! Need to entertain my relatives, so I'm not sure if I have the time to translate it. At least there's closure for this arc ?
