Chapter 545 545. Poor Girl (77)

In the fifth game, Chu Xuyuan walked sixty steps, No.60 one step, pawn!
Together, the two picked up the chess pieces from the chessboard and put them into the chess box.

Chu Xuyuan asked on a whim, "Brother Jing Hong, you play chess with Fifth Sister, who can win?"

Tang Jinghong paused, thought for a while and said, "I haven't seen Qingzhi play chess before, I'll tell you next time I have a chance to play a few games."

Chu Xuyuan picked up the chess pieces with both hands, "My Fifth Sister must be stronger."

Tang Jinghong slightly raised his eyebrows and asked, "I haven't done it yet, why are you so sure?"

Chu Xuyuan trusted blindly, "Given my Fifth Sister's performance in the past, if she can play chess, no one can surpass her."

Tang Jinghong smiled, "Your words hurt people."

Chu Xuyuan quickly explained, "Brother Jing Hong, I am not targeting you, you are also very powerful, but my fifth sister is even more powerful, but my fifth sister is your fiancee, the more powerful she is, the better your vision is, and it also represents you. The more powerful you are, hehe."

Tang Jinghong smiled, "That's the truth."

The two families continued to play chess until the early days of Zishi.

Tang Jinghong sent Chu Xuyuan to the door of his house, and when he left, he looked up at Chu Qingzhi's room.

The room is brightly lit, and there is a shadow on the bright window that flickers slightly with the light. The shadow is lying on the table, what is it writing?
Tang Jinghong raised his arm and lifted his clothes, revealing the golden feather and phoenix pattern on his arm. He stroked the pattern lightly, and said in a low voice, "Qing Zhi, good night."

Chu Qingzhi had just returned to the room, sat on a chair, and was about to write her autobiography, when she suddenly felt a strange feeling in her arm. She pushed back her sleeves, and tapped the golden feather and phoenix pattern with her fingers like green onion knots, and Tang Jinghong's words came.

It has been a long time since the Golden Feather Phoenix was used. Hearing Tang Jinghong's voice transmission, Chu Qingzhi rolled her eyes slightly and replied, "Good night."

……

The morning light is slightly dew.

Chu Shi'an opened the crumbling and dilapidated door that had been bitten by mice several times, and looked up at the glimmer of light in the sky.

There was bitterness on his old and rough face, and his eyes were slightly empty, as if he couldn't see the future.

He bent down and coughed a few times, looking not in good health, then looked at the overgrown yard, sighed, and bent over to pick it up.

Not long after, an eight or nine-year-old girl ran out of the house.

The little girl's clothes were covered with patches, her small face was sallow, her hair was withered and frizzy, like a wild girl. The father and daughter were incompatible with the affluent atmosphere of the entire Chu family village.

"Father, I'll help you." Chu Lan'er obediently walked to Chu Shi'an's side, and stretched out her rough little hands to pull weeds together.

Chu Shi'an looked at Chu Lan'er guiltily, but there was light in his eyes, "Lan'er, I'm sorry."

Chu Lan'er is well-behaved and sensible, "Father, you are right, don't say sorry to me,"

Chu Shi'an was very relieved, "This place is too dilapidated, let's make Lan'er live for a while, and Dad will find a job right away. When we have money, we will build a big house."

Chu Lan'er smiled and said, "Father, I will work hard too, and I will be able to live in a big house soon."

Chu Shi'an gently hugged his daughter, feeling very sad, what a nice girl, why is her mother so cruel?
Chu Lan'er obediently leaned on her father's broad chest, "Father, everything will be fine." The little girl was so sensible that it made people feel distressed.

Chu Shi'an patted Chu Lan'er on the back, "Yes, everything will be fine."

……

"Sister Qingyue!" After breakfast, Chu Qingyue went to the county town to learn embroidery and arrange things, when suddenly a strange voice came from behind her.

Chu Qingyue turned around and looked at Chu Lan'er. The little girl had two braids, her skin was not very good, she was very thin, her eyes looked big and bright, "Who are you?"

Chu Lan'er turned her head and pointed to the dilapidated house in the village, "I am Chu Shi'an's daughter, and I just came back yesterday."

Chu Qingyue looked up at the broken house, she still had some impressions, "Chu Shi'an is the uncle Shi'an who grew up with my father?"

Seeing Chu Qingyue think of it, Chu Lan'er was very happy, "Well, it's him."

Chu Qingyue looked at Chu Lan'er, "What do you want from me?"

Chu Lan'er uncovered the cloth from the basket in her hand, and handed it to Chu Qingyue, "Sister Qingyue, these are the handkerchiefs I embroidered, each one is very beautiful, do you want to accept it?"

She heard from the grandmother next door that Chu Qingyue opened a clothing store in the county and came to try her luck.

Chu Qingyue put the basket on the stone, and took it out to see one by one. They were embroidered with flat stitches. The type of embroidery is very ordinary, but it is very beautiful.

"Lan'er, I don't accept handkerchiefs, but I can sell them for you. Wait for my news tonight."

Chu Lan'er nervously waited for Chu Qingyue's answer. After hearing what Chu Qingyue said, she nodded repeatedly, "Thank you, sister Qingyue."

"You're welcome." Chu Qingyue left with the basket.

Chu Lan'er watched Chu Qingyue off, the light in her eyes lit up infinitely, the handkerchief is so beautiful, it will definitely sell for a good price.

Li Qingyu saw Chu Lan'er passing by and called to her, "Lan'er!"

Chu Lan'er stopped, turned her head to look at Li Qingyu, raised a smile, and called sweetly, "Auntie."

Li Qingyu waved to Chu Lan'er, "Come on, Auntie has something to tell you."

Chu Lan'er walked towards Li Qingyu without knowing why, "Auntie, what's the matter?"

"Wait a minute." Li Qingyu turned and went back to the house, and when she came out again, she was holding a basket in her hand, "You take this back and eat it with your dad."

"Thank you, auntie." Chu Lan'er wanted to decline, but there was no food at home. If she refused, she and her father would have to starve.

Li Qingyu patted Chu Lan'er on the shoulder, "Go."

Chu Lan'er took a few steps to look at Li Qingyu, her eyes were full of gratitude, and she walked away slowly.

Chu Qingzhi packed up and came out of the house, and saw this scene, "Mother, who is she? Why haven't I seen her before?"

Li Qingyu sighed, and told Chu Qingzhi about Chu Lan'er's family.

Chu Qingzhi nodded, "Mother, I'm going to the papermaking workshop. The time of my return is uncertain, but I will definitely be back before sunset. Don't worry about me."

Li Qingyu straightened the bag straps for Chu Qingzhi, with concerned eyes, "Remember to eat at noon."

"Yes, I will eat." Chu Qingzhi waved to Li Qingyu and left.

Tang Jinghong spared today and went to the workshop with Chu Qingzhi.

……

Shuiyun County, free clinic area.

Bao Linjiang pulled Zhan Hongjun aside, and said with some concern, "Master is going to the capital tomorrow, what shall we do?"

Zhan Hongjun beckoned to Bao Linjiang, and Bao Linjiang put his ear close together, Zhan Hongjun said, "How about we go to the free clinic in the capital?"

Bao Linjiang's eyes lit up, but he was worried, "Is this okay?"

A cunning flashed in Zhan Hongjun's eyes, and he opportunistically said, "What's wrong, the emperor asked us to come out for free consultation, and there is no designated location."

 Recently, there has been a lot of bad luck. In the last chapter last night, the computer suddenly went black, and the computer was only repaired now.
