Poor family mother and son

Chapter 41
After a noisy day, when the villagers dispersed, Wu Dalang found Chu Qing to pay the bill.There was a lot of taels of silver left over from the table, and he wanted to return it to Chu Qing.Chu Qing didn't answer, and gave another 20 taels and a list to buy furniture. You need to buy ready-made ones, or second-hand ones, as long as they are sturdy.

The kang in the bedroom is ready with the building of the house, and it can be used after drying.Next to the kitchen, heating in winter is not a problem.When Chu Qing was thinking about in the empty new house, Bai Hua came.

Bai Hua dressed like a shopkeeper in the city today.The knotted headband on the head is tied tightly, but there are still fragments of hair sticking out from the back of the head.

There were no chairs, so the two of them stood and talked, and Xiaobao sat at the door and ate emoji snacks.

"Miss Yuan, this is for you." Bai Hua handed over a paper envelope.If it wasn't for the words "Yuan's sue", Chu Qing would have thought it was a housewarming red envelope from Bai Hua.

Bypassing the first half of the official polite words, I saw the words "...Yuan Shi of Jizhou, Jun Ke's secret investigation department intelligence department is stationed in Jizhou Xiaoqi..." Before finishing reading, Chu Qing said: "I'm just your private Temporarily hire help!"

"Miss Yuan, you don't need to be humble." Bai Hua pretended not to hear the clear dissatisfaction, "Your brain and calmness are very in line with the requirements of the secret investigation department. You are a talent."

"You don't need to trick me! I said, I don't join the secret investigation department, I have nothing to do with the secret investigation department!" Chu Qing's attitude was firm and his tone was tough.

Bai Hua has never heard of this usage of "routines", but she also understands the general meaning.Chu Qing's blunt and forceful tone aroused his impatience.Kind words are not good anymore, are they?
"Yuan, native of Yuanjia Village, Minxian County, Yuzhou. In order to bury her parents, she married Fang Shuo in the next-door Fangjia Village in the first year of Qingde. Fang Shuo lived with his elder brother because his parents died young. In the second year of Qingde, you gave birth to One son, half a year later, Fang Shuo was conscripted into the army, and news of his death in battle came three months later."

"Three months later, you and your child were sold by your brother and sister-in-law respectively. The child disappeared. You ran away on the way. You stayed in Kushui Town, Jizhou for more than two years, and worked as a cook at a place called 'Zhangji Restaurant' during this period. Mother. In April of the fourth year of Qingde, you were kicked out because of the injustice of the Zhangs, and you took away the Zhangs' child, Xiaobao." Bai Hua said as if endorsing her in one breath.

Chu Qing took a deep breath: The investigation was too thorough!More details than I know!Especially Bai Hua's last sentence just now, saying that she took away other people's children by herself, seems like a big pit!

"You brought someone else's child, hid your past, and settled here under the pretext of being separated from your husband. If the Zhangs and his wife sue you on the grounds that the child was abducted..." Bai Hua's tone was threatening.

"I didn't take Xiaobao away, but Xiaobao followed me!" Chu Qing shouted.This is completely two different things, the difference between active and passive! "And Xiaobao is not their child, they bought it with money!"

"It doesn't matter whether they and Xiaobao are blood relatives or not, they have already registered for Xiaobao. Then Xiaobao is their child. And now, Xiaobao is in your hands." Bai Hua's eyes were full of pride.

Little Treasure had never seen Chu Qing's violent rage with veins throbbing in his forehead, but he felt inexplicably familiar.He walked up to Chu Qing's side, tightly clutching Chu Qing's sleeves, pursed his mouth tightly, and stared at Bai Hua with hatred, without blinking.

Chu Qing's shoulders slumped.

This is a pit, and I know it is a pit, but I can only jump.If the people from the Secret Investigation Department instigated it casually, the Zhangs might accuse Chu Qing of abducting Xiao Bao, and Chu Qing would be wanted.

If the secret investigation department manipulated Chu Qing's identity casually, then Xiao Bao would be Chu Qing's real son in name.

Is there a choice?No.

"My household registration?" Chu Qing fell into the trap helplessly.

"According to Daxuan's law, anyone who has lived in one place for one year can automatically settle in the place of residence. Of course, the secret investigation department can immediately handle the formalities for you to settle in Wukeshu Village. But since you are a woman, and the small Bao is not yet an adult, you cannot have land, so you are not registered as farmers. The secret investigation department will provide you with the household registration of the merchant."

"No! The merchant's son can't take the imperial examination! It is said that the descendants of your secret investigation department can't either!" Chu Qing resolutely objected.

"The secret investigation department's position can be passed on. I will inherit my father's career. I can be an official without the imperial examination." Bai Hua sincerely suggested.

"No!" Chu Qing resolutely objected.

The son inherits the father's business?You are willing to be a spy with your father, but I don't want my son to do this life-and-death job!
Little Treasure has no parents, and he is willing to follow him. How much trust and dependence is there!Chu Qing didn't want Xiaobao's future to be full of danger and intrigue.It's fine if the wife is flat.With Xiaobao's precocious wisdom, he will be a scholar in the future and have a few acres of fertile land, which is also a well-off life.

"The child is still young, so there is no need to think about these things now. If you can make meritorious service, the secret investigation department can get you some vacant positions in other departments. Then Xiaobao will be the child of a court official, and he will naturally be able to take an official career." Bai Hua tempted.

Xiao Bao leaned his small body on Chu Qing's lap, and nodded towards Chu Qing.He doesn't care what he can do when he grows up.It doesn't matter what you do, as long as it is clear that there is no danger.

"Okay." Chu Qing's waist collapsed.

"Tomorrow, I'll take you to the secret investigation department's directorate in Jizhou. It's not far from the state government office. You need to report for duty and receive relevant items." Bai Hua returned to smiling.Little boy, can't he cure you?Bai Hua thought.

"Give me back my badge. Tomorrow you will get your own." Bai Hua said.

Chu Qing took out the badge and returned it to him.It seems that Bai Hua already knew that the waist card was in Chu Qing's hands.Maybe left on purpose?unknown.

Birch is gone.Chu Qing pulled Xiaobao to sit on the threshold with some dejection.Xiao Bao patted Chu Qing on the shoulder, and handed over a snack bag with a smiling face on it.

Chu Qing took the snack bag and stared at the smiling face: "Look, it can smile, but I can't. Xiaobao, I don't want to be a spy, and I don't want you to be a spy. The last time I was on a mission with the Secret Service, I I almost can’t come back. I don’t want you to live like this in the future. I hope you are safe and sound, learn what you like, and do what you like.”

Xiaobao opened his mouth, but said nothing.Just nodded, and raised his arm to show off his small muscles.

"You're right! We'll be safe and sound. Let's exercise! You're too young to grow up and not be tired. Do you jump high every day? There was a small pit that day, and you jumped out of the pit a hundred times a day , okay? Jump more and grow taller." Chu Qing regained his confidence.

Xiaobao went out to jump into the pit.Dance very seriously.Jump out, go in, jump out again.

At Baijia, the bricks made of excavated kaolin are almost dry.These days the sun is enough, the wind is also suitable.At this time, they are covering the bricks with straw to prevent them from cracking in the sun.

Chu Qing walked over and joined the labor.It is also good to practice arm strength by moving bricks.While working, Chu Qing ordered Baijia: "Build the kiln with these bricks, and the first batch of bricks will be used for you to build houses."

"Boss, the weather is getting warmer and warmer, so don't worry about our house," Baijia said.

"That has to be built. I will give you the blueprint later, and your houses and warehouses will be built together."

According to Chu Qing's plan, in this two-mile-long rectangular open space along the dirt slope of the official road, the break of the dirt slope will be the entrance and exit of the official road.

The factories, warehouses and staff dormitories will be built sequentially against the slope.Chu Qing's residence is at the other end, perpendicular to the official road.

In this way, it is convenient for the entry and exit of transport vehicles, and there will not be too much noise to disturb Qingqing's life.
