Li Qingyin’s son and daughter actually knelt down and kowtowed to Chu Qingzhi. “Cousin, thank you.”
Chu Qingzhi was slightly stunned. What had these two children experienced? She had allowed her disciples to beat him until he was paralyzed, but these two children were still thanking her?
Everyone was shocked. It seemed that the man was usually abusive. That was why even his son and daughter hated him. He deserved it!
What they did not know was that the man was addicted to going to the brothel. Not only did he steal Li Qingyin’s hard-earned money to go to the brothel, but he also had affairs with the widow in the village and embarrassed Li Qingyin.
The two children were also embarrassed by their father. They were often mocked and ridiculed by the children in the village.
Chu Qingzhi pulled the two children up. The little girl gave her a good impression. “Little cousin, what can you do?”
The little girl said confidently, “I can wash clothes, cook, grow vegetables, and sew clothes.”
“You know quite a lot.” Chu Qingzhi asked Li Qingyu to bring out a few dumpling leaves. “Do you know this?”
The little girl nodded. “Yes, there are many at the foot of the mountain behind our house.”
Chu Qingzhi said gently, “Then go pick it when you have time and sell it to me. Is that okay?”
The little girl’s eyes lit up. “Okay.”
“I’ll get someone to send you back after dinner. Go play.”
“Ok.”
After the matter was settled, everyone dispersed. Li Qingyin dragged her husband to lean against the wall.
She squatted down and smiled at him, her expression unprecedentedly relaxed. “You can finally be obedient.”
When the man saw Li Qingyin like this, he was horrified.
After that, Li Qingyin ignored him and went to help Li Qingyu.
Before Li Qingyin came to Chu Qingzhi’s house, she had actually gone to her original family. However, her original family shut the door on her. At that moment, her heart was in despair. Fortunately, she still had her sister. Otherwise, she and her children would be doomed.
Yuan Hongjun and Bao Linjiang treasured their little tiger cubs very much.
They immediately ran to the village chief’s house and asked for some goat milk for them to drink.
The two tiger cubs were very obedient. They slept after eating.
Chu Qingzhi washed the herbs with Chu Qingning by the well in the front yard and dried them. Then, she prepared to go to the herb garden to plant herb seeds. Coincidentally, Yuan Hongjun and Bao Linjiang had just finished feeding the little tiger cubs, so the four of them walked towards the herb garden together.
Chu Qingzhi named the small mountain where she planted herbs the herb garden.
When they arrived at the herb garden, Chu Qingning took the hoe to plow the soil. Yuan Hongjun and Bao Linjiang went to fetch water while Chu Qingzhi cleaned the herb seeds.
Chu Qingzhi had already planted seven to eight types of herbs in the herb garden. Including today’s herbs, there would be 13 types.
As Chu Qingning worked, she asked, “Fifth Sister, I’m very curious why you wanted the hops. Can you tell me?”
Chu Qingzhi said, “To brew beer.”
Beer… It was something new again. Chu Qingning did not ask further. Even if she asked, she would not understand what it was. “Let me try when it’s brewed.”
Chu Qingzhi smiled and said, “Of course.”
Yuan Hongjun and Bao Linjiang were confused. What was beer?
After returning from the herb garden, Chu Qingzhi took a portion of the wheat that they had harvested and threshed it. The threshed wheat weighed 20 catties, which was enough.
She washed the wheat grains and soaked them in water for a day and a night. She would process them further at this time tomorrow.
Yuan Hongjun and Bao Linjiang had nothing to do now, so they recorded the production process of brewing beer. They were prepared to learn it and give it a try.
Since Chu Qingzhi was their master, it was only right for them to learn from her, including brewing beer.
When it was time for dinner, tables were quickly set up. The house was filled with laughter.
Li Qingyin brought her children to sit at the corner. They had never eaten such good food in their lives. When they saw the food, they swallowed hard.
As they ate, they cried. This was really the best meal they had ever eaten in their lives.
After Li Qingyin ate her fill, she did not forget her husband. She picked up some of every dish and fed it to him.
During the feeding process, she was not impatient at all. Instead, she felt that her husband was in her control, which made her feel very at ease.
After feeding her husband, she went to bid farewell to Li Qingyu.
Li Qingyu hurriedly packed some food and some rice dumplings for her. After all, Li Qingyin was her sister.
Chu Qingzhi asked Chu Third to use the delivery cart to send Li Qingyin and her family home.
“Cousin, thank you.” The little girl waved at Chu Qingzhi in the cart.
Chu Qingzhi waved her hand. “Remember to pluck the leaves.”
The little girl replied happily, “Okay.”
The cart gradually disappeared into the distance.
At the same time, Chu Yehui also bid farewell to Chu Xuhua. “Chu First, I’m going back to the county. Remember to send the rice dumplings to my restaurant tomorrow.”
Chu Xuhua nodded. “Alright, I’ll send you off.”
At the military camp.
After Fang Zerong heated up the food Chu Qingzhi asked him to bring back, he carried it to the main tent. “General, it’s time to eat.”
Tang Jinghong did not look up. After handling his work for the entire afternoon, his voice was slightly hoarse and tired. “Put it there. I still have some work to do.”
Fang Zerong held the tray and did not move. He said, “General, Miss Chu specially asked me to send this back for you.”
Tang Jinghong paused and put down his brush. “Put it here.”
Fang Zerong secretly smiled. “General, eat first. I’ll come back to collect the bowls later.”
Tang Jinghong nodded and picked up his chopsticks to eat.
As if having thought of something, a sweet smile suddenly appeared on his face.
At the same time, Chu Qingzhi also picked up the chopsticks and ate. She was exhausted after a busy day of work.
I wonder if Jinghong has eaten.
They had just seen each other in the morning, but it felt like it had been a long time. Should she look for him at night?
She couldn’t help but miss him. Let’s go take a look, Chu Qingzhi muttered..
