There is a crime of cheating in the law, but cheating refers to the man or woman deliberately defrauding the other party of the dowry or dowry. For example, the woman fled after receiving the man's betrothal gift. Such a person will be beaten thirty years after he catches him and will be imprisoned for two years. However, there is no provision for cheating in marriage like Fan Zhengyang.

Because Fan Zhengyang did not cheat the Chen family of money, Chen Jiao has not yet married, let alone there is no way to prove that Fan Zhengyang will not be a real couple with Chen Jiao. Even if he really doesn't touch Chen Jiao, he can still frame Chen Jiao for having various shortcomings that are not worthy of him touching. No matter how you calculate it, it is not considered a fraud. What's more, a man has a habit of Long Yang, which is despised, but has not violated any laws in this dynasty.

Mr. Yu, Wang Shen can’t help the Chen family.

Manager Chen said unwillingly: "Can you just let it go?"

Wang Shen looked at Chen Jixiao and said, "You go to Fan's house with me."

Chen Jixiao was used to being kind to him and asked foolishly: "Sir, are you going to reason with him?"

Wang Shen reminded: "His personal morality is detrimental. At this time, you stand up for Gillian, and he is not ashamed to sue the official."

Chen Jixiao understands!

Wang Shen didn't even change his official uniform and took Chen Jixiao to the Fan family.

Fan Zhengyang was looking for Chen Chunsheng madly. He had just returned from the Ministry of Personnel and did not see Chen Chunsheng. He only found a letter left by Chen Chunsheng. In the letter, Chen Chunsheng wished him a bright future and said that he would never see each other again in this life.

Fan Zhengyang was in a state of dismay.

He has been in love with Chen Chunsheng for seven years. Apart from Chen Chunsheng, he has never had any feelings for anyone. It’s just that he is in the officialdom and he will inevitably cause gossip. Fan Zhengyang hesitated and decided to marry a wife to cover up. Hearing that the Chen family’s daughter could not have children, Fan Zhengyang only thought of this solution after discussing with Chen Chunsheng.

After the engagement, Fan Zhengyang could see that Chen Chunsheng was depressed. He promised again and again that he would not touch Chen Jiao. Chen Chunsheng was coaxed by him again and again, but unexpectedly, Chen Chunsheng left.

Looking at the four words "never meet" in the letter, Fan Zhengyang suddenly felt, compared with Chen Chunsheng, what is the official career?

He threw away the letter and rushed out to find someone.

Wang Shen's carriage was parked in front of Fan's house at this moment.

Chen Jixiao jumped out of the carriage and asked nothing. He grabbed Fan Zhengyang and beat him up with a harsh blow. Fan Zhengyang was a little taller than Chen Jixiao and had some skills. If he really wanted to resist, Chen Jixiao might not be able to beat him. But Fan Zhengyang was anxious to find Chen Chunsheng, and secondly, he was indeed ashamed of the Chen family, so he did not resist at all and allowed Chen Jixiao to fight.

Wang Shen stood aside with an expressionless face, watching Fan Zhengyang fall to the ground with a blue nose and a swollen face, and then he spoke to stop him.

Chen Jixiao was still unhappy. Before leaving, he kicked Fan Zhengyang hard and threw the wedding letter on Fan Zhengyang's face.

The Chen and Fan families broke off the engagement, and then Fan Zhengyang resigned from his post, and no one knew where they had gone.

Because it was involved in the Minister of Justice Wang Shen, this incident caused quite a stir in the capital, but it gradually disappeared after a few days. After all, Chen Jiao was just the daughter of the Shangshu Mansion. If it were Wang Shen's biological daughter, it might be more worthy of the people's remarks as interesting news.

In the Shangshu Mansion, Chen Jixiao and his wife were very worried that Chen Jiao could not think too much. When the men had errands, Yue Niang was responsible for guarding Chen Jiao in an endless manner.

Chen Jiao was just angry, but it was far from the point of seeking death. She even quickly returned to her normal diet and teased her four-month-old nephew for nothing. Manager Chen was worried that Chen Jiao would force her to smile, and Yue Niang secretly asked her sister-in-law: "Jiaojiao, are you really okay?"

Chen Jiao knew that her family was worried about her and smiled sincerely: "It's really okay. Sister-in-law, think about it. I had a bad reputation. Now that I have retired from marriage, I can only make a joke. If I don't want to marry me, I still don't want to marry me. I stay at home, and I can't hear someone laughing at me. After all, I didn't lose much. Sister-in-law said right?"

She was able to think so, but Yue Niang felt distressed. Seeing that her sister-in-law was twenty years old, the harder it would be to marry her the more she went, she couldn't help but persuade her: "Jiaojiao, actually, she actually married a widower..."

"Sister-in-law," Chen Jiao interrupted Yue Niang's words in time and said calmly: "I know my sister-in-law is planning for me, but I don't want to marry casually. Don't worry, sister-in-law, I know that when it's really time, I will ask my sister-in-law to plan for me."

Yue Niang's ears were soft, so she stopped persuading her if she couldn't persuade her.

After another half a month, Manager Chen and others completely believed that Chen Jiao really would not do stupid things.

After being kept by Yue Niang for so long, Chen Jiao went to the garden of Shangshu Mansion alone, and she wanted to have some breath.

It was drizzling in the sky, and people went back to their houses to hide from the rain after their chores. The huge Shangshu Mansion was like an empty house. Chen Jiao held a green umbrella and walked along the bluestone path. There was misty rain in the distance, and flowers dripping in the near distance, which made a unique taste. Chen Jiao enjoyed the rain all the way and slowly came to the lotus pond.

The lotus leaves are tall and the rain hits on it, and then drips into the pool, causing ripples.

Chen Jiao stood on the bridge with an umbrella and watched for a while. When she was tired of standing, she moved to the pavilion next to her.

After rubbing the stone bench with an embroidered handkerchief, Chen Jiao had just sat down. When she looked up, she found that there was a figure in the garden path she had just walked through. The man was holding a gray umbrella, and his face was covered by the edge of the umbrella. However, Chen Jiao only needed to scan the other party's slender figure and narrow waist to recognize his identity.

Chen Jiao thought to herself, today is the tenth day of the first lunar month, Wang Shen’s day of rest?

She has been confused lately and has not paid attention to the time.

There were only two living people here, she and Wang Shen. Chen Jiao couldn't help but stare at Wang Shen's figure, her face always hidden under the umbrella. He stood opposite the lotus pond for a while, then went up the bridge, stood on the bridge for a while, and then walked towards the pavilion.

Chen Jiao stood up.

The person under the umbrella finally heard the movement and raised the umbrella face.

Seeing Wang Shen’s unexpected face, Chen Jiao smiled slightly and saluted respectfully: “Sir.”

While she was bowing, Wang Shen looked at her quickly. Compared to the last time she met, she seemed to have no change. She was just thin in early summer. She stood in the pavilion in a white dress. The breeze blew her skirt. Her figure was slender and her willow waist was as if there were flowers in the lotus pond and she had cultivated into spirits. She hid in the pavilion and came to shelter from the rain.

Wang Shen held the umbrella's hand tightened slightly.

He was watching the rain somewhere else, but when he saw her, he hesitated to follow him.

He had never cared about her in person because of such a big deal as breaking up the engagement. If she didn't come to the main courtyard, he wouldn't be able to take the initiative to look for her.

"Giao Jiao is here to enjoy the rain, too?" Wang Shen asked calmly while putting his umbrella into the pavilion.

Chen Jiao said: "Yes, I've been sitting in the house for a long time. I've come out to stroll around. Will the adults take a break today? I forgot."

Wang Shen said "yes".

"Sit here, sir." Chen Jiao pointed to the stone bench she had just sat on and said, "I have wiped it."

Wang Shen looked at her and asked, "Where are you sitting?"

Chen Jiao smiled and picked up the umbrella that was placed aside and said, "I'm about to go back to not bother with my sir."

It is better to avoid suspicion if you have nothing to do. There may be servants passing by in the garden at any time to avoid being misunderstood. She deliberately seduces Wang Shen.

Wang Shen pursed his lower lip, and then when Chen Jiao turned around, he coughed and asked, "What are you busy with recently?"

Chen Jiao paused, Wang Shen was like this, wanted to talk about family matters with her?

Although strange, Chen Jiao turned around and said truthfully: "I'm not busy with anything, at most I can help my sister-in-law take care of Brother Chang."

Wang Shen looked at the umbrella she held in her hand, took a seat first, and then continued to ask: "How can Brother Chang crawl?"

Chen Jiao laughed and explained: "It's early, it's enough to be seven or eight months old."

A hint of embarrassment flashed across Wang Shen's face.

During the silence, Chen Jiao suddenly realized that compared with the Chinese New Year, although Wang Shen is still thinner today, his spirit is much better, just like the tall poplar trees with leaves falling out in winter, and have ushered in a new look in spring.

"Is there anything wrong with sir?" He said without saying a word, and Chen Jiao asked curiously.

Wang Shen looked at her again, snatched the big hand in his sleeve, and said, "There is indeed something. Since last year, I have been looking for new editors, but I have never found a suitable one. I wonder if you are still interested."

Chen Jiao was delighted and looked at him with bright eyes: "Sir, do you think this is serious?"

Wang Shen smiled: "Why should I lie to you?"

Of course Chen Jiao was willing, but remembered that as soon as she got engaged last year, Wang Shen refused to allow her to edit books again. Chen Jiao bit her lip and put forward a condition: "I can edit books for adults, but adults need to promise me that before I compile the book, adults are not allowed to fire me for any reason."

She was talking about conditions, but the voice also had a hint of the little daughter acting cute. Wang Shen listened to it and felt that it was more pleasant than the sound of rain.

He nodded solemnly: "Okay, unless you don't want to make up, I won't fire you."

Chen Jiao was very happy and finally asked, "Then will I start tomorrow?"

Wang Shen nodded again.

"Then I'll go and prepare now." Chen Jiao saluted him, then walked outside the pavilion, opened the umbrella, and left with brisk steps.

Wang Shen sat in the pavilion, his eyes following her slender back.

After Chen Jiao walked out of his sight, she turned around again and ran into Changfu, who was holding an umbrella.

"Did the girl see the adult?" Changfu asked expectantly, looking at each other.

Chen Jiao turned around and pointed to the direction of the lotus pond and said, "Sir, are you enjoying the rain in the pavilion."

Changfu first thanked him, then said to himself, "Sir, you are so wise. I just asked me to get the painting tools and said I wanted to draw a rockery. Why did you come here in a blink of an eye?"

The voice has not faded, Changfu has gone far away.

Chen Jiao didn't think much at first, but as she walked, she suddenly looked towards the rockery. The rockery group of Shangshu Mansion was in two directions with the lotus pond. With Wang Shen's calmness, since he arranged for Changfu to get painting tools, he did not leave without reason to let Changfu look around. Then, why did Wang Shen go away and even bump into her?

Did he follow her when he saw her and was about to talk about editing books?

But he asked her to edit books, so why didn't he ask her to go to the main courtyard before?

In front of him, Wang Shen was lingering on the bridge by the lotus pond, and the accident he showed when he saw her. The more he thought about it, the more he seemed to pretend, and Chen Jiao's heartbeat became a little confused. Was she wrong, or was Wang Shen really deliberately trying to hide something and approach her?

If he really treats her as a junior, he doesn't need to hide it unless he feels guilty!

Perhaps because of suspicion, Chen Jiao later traced back many clues.

Wang Shen blushed when he accidentally held her hand.

Qin Yue took the initiative to talk to her a few times, and Wang Shen exposed Qin Yue's intention to take a concubine and sent Qin Yue away.

After being hit by the Liu family's mother and daughter, Wang Shen, who was infatuated, kept calling her name.

She got engaged to Fan Zhengyang, and Wang Shen refused to let her write books in a cold face. After seeing her for a few months, he was thin and haggard. Now that she has only been breaking the engagement for more than half a month, Wang Shen has recovered his spirits and has taken the initiative to ask her to continue editing books!

One or two are not considered evidence. Together with so many, Chen Jiao really couldn't convince herself anymore, and Wang Shen had no intention of her!

I was so immersed in my mind that the sound of footsteps suddenly came from behind me.

Chen Jiao turned around, and there was naturally Wang Shen on the opposite side, Changfu.

"Why are the girl still here?" Wang Shen was just surprised and Changfu asked directly.

Chen Jiao thought for a while and said, "I have something I want to ask for advice from sir, Changfu, you go first."
