Jade Space of Rebirth

Chapter 21 Take a Bath
"Ma'am, did my little sister do something... something bad, if that's the case, I'll apologize to you, motherfucker!"

When Tang Zhi threw away her eldest brother and ran back to the temple quickly, what she heard was the careful words of her mother, Li Shi.Mrs. Li was thinking of the fruit she had eaten in the past few days. She had been doubting its origin, so when she saw someone coming to look for her little daughter, and that person was well dressed, she felt a drum in her heart.

Before hearing the other party speak for a long time, Li's brows were so frowned that a fly could be crushed to death. Just as he turned his gaze to the door, he saw Tang Zhi standing at the door with a serious expression on his face, ready to speak.

"Aunt Cao?"

After entering the door, the first thing Tang Zhi saw was the figure standing in front of the door. After tentatively shouting, Mrs. Cao heard a familiar voice. Looking back, seeing Tang Zhi's rigorous face softened a lot, "Zhi'er!" .

As soon as Tang Zhi saw that it was indeed Aunt Cao, her little face immediately filled with a smile, and her heart was completely relaxed at this moment. She really thought that Mrs. Cao would take her gem and walk away, and she even thought about it in her heart. She was prepared for the worst, so when Mrs. Cao came, she was surprised.

In this turbulent era, Tang Zhi doesn't think that everyone can be indifferent to money, but right now she has no choice but to try, and the facts have proved that she is lucky.

At this moment, the eyes looking at Cao Shi are more trusting.

Li's face was originally stern, but she was stunned when she saw the familiar greetings from the old and the young, especially when Cao called 'Zhi'er', which made her curious, when did her daughter have this name?The eldest son of the Tang family who came back outside the door also looked puzzled, guessing the relationship between the visitor and his younger sister.

Tang Zhi looked up and saw the confused look of the family, stuck out her tongue cutely, stepped forward and secretly tugged at the corner of Cao's clothes, and said softly, "Aunt Cao, it's up to you next!"

Mrs. Cao smiled back at her and nodded, then walked up to Mrs. Li, and also smiled slightly, "Ms. Mrs. Cao, Cao Zhen, is from Teng County. She fell ill at home a few days ago and was almost helpless. It was the doctor who saved my life." As he spoke, he glanced at Tang Zhi.

"I've always been the only one in the family. If it wasn't for Zhi'er, I'm afraid that I would be a person in that loess at this moment. I think Zhi'er is also smart, so I made my own decision without my sister's consent and recognized it as a goddaughter. Come here today. I’m here to apologize to my younger sister!” As he spoke, he bowed his body as if to salute.

Mrs. Li was still stunned by these words, when Tang Zhi saw that she hurried forward and kissed La Niang's arm, she just woke up like a dream and hurried forward to stop Mrs Cao, saying, "Where is the need to be so polite?" , Zhi'er can do anything to help, so I just run away and don't get in the way!"

Mrs. Cao knew countless people, and she could tell from Mrs. Li's tone that she was an honest and responsible woman. She was very satisfied, and asked tentatively, "Then what about my daughter?"

"Since I have recognized it, what else can I do, but my sister has bothered. If I guess correctly, the fruit that my little sister brought back these few days was given by my sister, right?" Li Shi said gently.

Tang Zhi was already winking at Cao Shi. Cao Shi was wondering what kind of fruit it was, and now she understood Tang Zhi's hint, "A small gift is not worth mentioning, but my sister still lives in this ruined temple in such a cold day."

As he said that, he gave Tang Zhi a reproachful look, "Zhi'er didn't tell me, but it's a good thing to see her today, otherwise, in such a cold day, wouldn't the girls and these children suffer from frostbite if they slept in the open for a night?"

"Stop talking, hurry up and pack your things, my yard is not small, and it will not be a problem to live with your family!"

Mrs. Li looked awkwardly at Mrs. Cao, who was holding her hand, and looked back at her son and daughter's bright eyes when they heard that they were going to live in the house. Although he hesitated, he still nodded, but he was extremely sorry, "Since it is Little sister's godmother, then I'll call you elder sister, but all of us are going, wouldn't it be...it's better for elder sister to bring my children there, and I'll make do with it myself!" "I Seeing that Zhi'er was obedient, I thought she was different, but I didn't expect the girl to be such a polite person, so don't think too much, I only live in my house, you are here to keep me company, I am happy to return Can’t come, where would be inconvenient”

As he said that, he glanced at Tang Zhi again, "If you don't go get your brother and sister, let's go home!"

"Of order, Zhi'er is going now!" Tang Zhi, who had been waiting for this moment, stood at attention with her legs in a salute posture, which looked funny and interesting, and Cao and Li beside her couldn't help laughing, so they were a little strange just now The atmosphere instantly became active.

Tang Zhi took the eldest sister with one hand and took the "brother" with the other, followed her mother and Cao Shi, and heard her mother ask suspiciously, "I just heard my sister call my younger sister Zhi'er, what is this name... ..."

So he became nervous, looked at Cao Shi with dribbling eyes, and waited for her to turn around and quickly hinted at her.

This time, Mrs. Cao didn't look back. She found out that this "goddaughter" she picked up for nothing still has a lot of things to hide from her family. She just explained the fruit incident and she will realize it. This is another secret. So the answer came smoothly, "I gave the name to the child, but I have used the girl's right. I hope the girl won't blame me for overstepping my authority!"

Mrs. Li was just puzzled, and now she felt more at ease when she heard the explanation. She had hardly communicated with outsiders except for bringing her children. She finally came to Mrs. Cao. Also slowly getting acquainted.

"What is more than authority, you are a child's godmother, there is nothing wrong with choosing a name, and the name Zhi'er sounds good to me." Li Shi said, and introduced her two sons and daughters by the way.

After all, Mrs. Li is a countryman, and chatting has become something that some parents don't care about!

Tang Zhi quietly looked at Cao Shi's face from behind, and found that she was not impatient as expected, but was smiling and listened very seriously, so she was relieved, knowing that Cao Shi was different from ordinary women. Worried that Mrs. Cao would hate her mother, now it seems that she is thinking too much.

No matter what other people think, at least the performance is impeccable.

On the other hand, Tang Zhi saw her like this for the first time, with a smile on her face and a brisk tone. If she knew that her mother was so silent for too long, she would have made plans early in the morning.

The weather is gradually getting darker. In the cold weather, there are not many pedestrians on the street. Occasionally, one or two will leave in a hurry. There are still some people.

That's why the Tang family dressed in rags walked on the street for the first time and no one pointed them. Occasionally, the clerk in the shop glanced at them, and then thought of other things that had nothing to do with them. No one stayed for a while for these beggars in their eyes. Will sight.

The road that Mrs. Cao took was not the alley that Tang Zhi went to during the day, but passed through the central street, which was in the opposite direction to Cao’s house. There were a lot of shops on this road section. Tang Zhi was thinking that the place should not be too noisy, so she saw more and more Walking forward, the place becomes more open, and there are houses standing in the distance. The huge difference between the prosperity and the tranquility is not abrupt.

Walking all the way to the middle of the residential area, everyone stopped at the door of a house with a locked door. Mrs. Cao quickly took out the key, opened the door and turned to greet them with a smile.

The moment Tang Zhi entered, she fell in love with this place inexplicably. The house is very simple. As soon as you enter the door, you will find an empty yard. The distribution of the houses is very clear. On the lower right are two rows of symmetrical rooms, and there are five or six rooms in total.The kitchen is in the middle between the main room and the wing room on the right, and it is derived from a curved path. Usually, if guests come, they only see this path. When Tang Zhi walked in, she found that the kitchen area was not small. After leaving the firewood house, there is an open space for washing and fetching water in front of me. Of course, the well is also here.

Mrs. Cao intentionally let the Tang family get to know the house well, and led them around to look around. Tang Zhi took the opportunity to see her mother's expression, and was even more happy to see her happy expression.

While the family was looking at the main room, Tang Zhi quietly pulled Cao Shi aside, and whispered her plan to divide the house.

"Aunt Cao also wants to live in?" Cao said.

"Of course!" Tang Zhi nodded affirmatively, and pointed to the left and right sides with her little finger, "You and your mother live on one side, and my brothers and sisters and I live in the left and right rooms, but I want to live in one alone."

Tang Zhi knew that if she said that she wanted to live alone, her mother would definitely not agree, so she wanted Cao's help. Seeing that Cao's expression was still hesitant about moving in, Tang Zhi hurriedly fanned the flames, "Aunt Cao herself You say you live alone, don’t you want to live with us? Or is it because Aunt Cao is afraid that Zhi’er will ask you for help in the future, so she wants to run away?” She pouted her mouth and looked away pretending to be angry.

"What kind of busy is this? Okay, okay, Aunt Cao can't say no to you, so I moved here, but you little girl doesn't know where to get such a valuable thing, and I will give you the money later. In the future, Aunt Cao I'm counting on you to take care of me!" Cao said the last sentence very lightly, obviously knowing that the matter of Yushi must be behind Li's back.

Hearing Cao's talking about gems, Tang Zhi's curiosity was aroused. She didn't know how much that piece of jade was sold for, but looking at the yard, it must not be too little, so she thought that she would let her family sleep. Next, ask carefully.

When Cao learned that the family hadn't eaten yet, and didn't talk to Tang Zhiduo, she went to the kitchen by herself. She prepared a lot of food for the house in advance, including buying enough quilts and clothes, just to prevent the Mrs. Li suspected that what she said was that she used to have frequent visitors at home, so they were all existing.

Tang Zhi knew that she saw the right person. Cao's words and deeds were so good that no one could be picky. She just said to let her buy a yard, and she prepared all these trivial things by the way, and she completely Not much to worry about.

Mrs. Cao went to the kitchen and Mrs. Li originally wanted to help, but seeing that she was all dirty, she was afraid that the place would be dirty again, so she wanted to trouble her sister tonight, and she would help tomorrow, and saw that she was sitting in the kitchen. The little girl with her legs crossed on the chair, thought for a while, and called people to her.

"Little... Zhi'er, tell mother honestly, did you really save someone?"

This question has been asked no less than three times since Mrs. Cao was absent, but Tang Zhi didn't dare to fool around with her mother's slightly worried eyes. She nodded solemnly, "Don't worry, mother, Aunt Cao is very nice. After becoming a doctor, she will let her mother and older brothers and sisters live at home, and Zhier will definitely pay her back the money she earns in the future."

Mrs. Li was gratified when she heard that her daughter was thinking of repaying her kindness, and then she saw her serious appearance when she was earning money seriously. rubbed his daughter's face.

The mud on the faces of the whole family was washed off after entering the door, revealing thin and yellow faces. After touching it, Li found that the youngest daughter's skin was extraordinarily smooth. The rest of the family were better, so they couldn't help but stay a little longer in surprise, and there were a few red marks on poor little Tang Zhibai's white and tender face. "Mother, if you rub my sister's face again, she will cry!" Tang Xin couldn't help pleading for her sister.

After being reminded by the elder daughter, Li finally realized the aggrieved and pitiful eyes of the younger daughter in front of her, her heart softened, and apology floated in her eyes, "It's my mother's fault. Seeing our Zhi'er become so cute, I couldn't help but get stronger , Mother promises to be gentle next time!"

Come on, after hearing this tone, is it possible that she will come and ravage herself often in the future? Little Tang Zhi was terrified. Under the eyes of her family laughing, she ran to the kitchen. It's too dangerous here, it's better to stay with Aunt Cao!

Mrs. Cao was boiling water while cooking, and she thought that the Tang family hadn't bathed for almost a month, and she needed to get more hot water for them to clean and clean tonight, but the pot was too small and it was troublesome to boil water, so I don't know how to do it. When will it burn.
