Chapter 187 Someone Comes for a Cat Again
Such a serious conversation between one person and one cat seems a bit weird.

However, seeing Chai Dong's serious expression, Xiao Sanzi also opened his eyes wide, and the scene was strangely harmonious.

After a few more words to the third son, Chai Dong took the burden on his back, turned around and left with big strides.

He is really leaving.Seeing his figure getting closer and closer to her, Chun Zhi felt a sudden feeling of reluctance, and she couldn't help but take two steps forward.But Xiaosanzi took one step faster than her, it caught up with three steps and two steps, and even jumped onto Chai Dong's shoulder!

In the past, it could only climb on Chun Zhi's shoulders, but it didn't even bother to climb on other people's bodies!Now, he actually crawled on top of Chai Dong?

When Chai Dong noticed this, he was startled.

Quickly stopped, he looked down at Xiao Sanzi, and saw Xiao Sanzi raised his head and meowed at him a few times, then jumped down again, and pointed his butt directly at him, without even turning his head , went straight into the village.

This picture looks even weirder.

Both Chai Dong and Wang Shi were a little dazed, and they looked at Chun Zhi in unison.

Harue is helpless and funny. "It just doesn't want to part with you, so it couldn't help rushing over to say goodbye to you just now. But after saying goodbye, it felt that it was too embarrassing for it to lower its figure and show affection to you. It didn't know how to end it for a while, so it could only hurry up Leave, so as not to stay embarrassing."

Saying that, she smiled happily again. "However, if you put it that way, it has already accepted you in its heart. It's just because of face, it hasn't shown it."

"Heh, a cat still has face?" Mrs. Wang chuckled.

However, Chai Dong firmly believed in Chun Zhi's words.

"Is that so? That's pretty good." He nodded, then looked at her again, "I'm leaving."

Then, he turned his head away completely, and left without looking back.

Once Chai Dong left, it would take several months before he could come back.

Harue thought he could handle it.But on the day he left, she began to feel empty around her and empty in her heart, and she felt very uncomfortable inside and out.

Especially at night, when she was lying on the bed alone, although she was still accompanied by the snoring of the third son, she tossed and turned, always feeling that something was missing.She finally fell asleep in a daze. She seemed to feel that there seemed to be someone beside her in a half-dream and half-awake, so she couldn't help but rubbed over there, but it was all gone.When she opened her eyes, she saw half of the empty space around her, and her mood sank.

After a few days, her spirit became worse and worse, and she became weak. Every day, she felt drowsy more than she was awake.

Wang Shi is still very energetic.

Speaking of which, this is not the first time that Chai Dong has left her side, she is already used to it.But this is the first time that Chai Dong has gone out alone for a long time, so she still can't stop talking about it every day, either guessing where Chai Dong has gone, or thinking about who and what happened to him on the way .Chunzhi heard it in his ears, and the melancholy in his heart deepened.

After waiting for half a month, someone passed by the village and brought them a letter—it was written by Chai Dong to keep them safe.

Although Chun Zhi never went to school, she has been with Chai Dong day and night for the past two years, and Chai Dong intends to teach her, so now she can already recognize a few words.Chai Dong's letter was written in a very simple way. Although there were many words that Chun Zhi didn't know, she read it from beginning to end and almost understood it.

"Mother, Mr. Xianggong said that he has already arrived at the academy and has been settled. The academy is very good, everyone has a separate residence, and food is also provided by the academy. He also said that the academy will take exams every month, and the first three students in the exam He can get a reward of ten taels of silver, and he has decided to work hard for this reward."

"Okay, as long as my son arrives safely!" Mrs. Wang hurriedly clasped her hands together and recited Amitabha.

As for Chai Dong studying hard to get rewards, she never worried at all!

After finally getting Chai Dong's personal letter, Chun Zhi's heart gradually settled down.In February, the weather turned warmer, and the baby in her belly was five months old.This stomach is like the willow leaves by the river, it starts to swell outward, almost every day.

Now that she is like this, it is not very convenient to move.Mrs. Wang has to be busy with family affairs and has no time to take care of her, so she can only tell her to stay at home.

"You can do embroidery work with peace of mind now! It's best to make one piece a month, and the money you earn can buy books, paper and pens for my son. Now he is a student of Bailu Academy, and he needs to use pens, inks, paper and inkstones well. , or you will be laughed at!" Wang explained to her in this way.

Of course Chunzhi also understood this truth, so she nodded quickly and worked more attentively.

Before I knew it, another half a month had passed.At the end of February, Chu Xu suddenly appeared in their village again.And this time, he took the initiative to come to Chun Zhi's house!

"I came here specially to visit you, Mrs. Chai." After entering the door, Chu Xu greeted Chun Zhi with a smile.

"Hmph, there's nothing to be courteous about, rape or steal!" Shi Wang immediately said coolly.

Chu Xu was still smiling. "Madam Chai, if you have to say so, that's fine. I did come here today for something."

"Mr. Chu, what's the matter with you? This month's embroidery will be ready soon." Chun Zhi hurriedly pointed to the frame in the yard.

"Really? Then I have to take a good look." Chu Xu quickly walked over to take a look, then nodded with satisfaction, "Miss Chai, your craftsmanship has improved really fast! This one is obviously better than the two years ago. The piece looks better, and the artistic conception is more profound! This thing can be sold at a high price even if I keep it!"

"Of course, I believe in your abilities, Young Master Chu." Chun Zhi nodded, "However, what is your purpose for coming here today?"

"Oh, here's the thing. On the second day of the first lunar month, didn't my cousin go back to her mother's house to pay New Year's greetings? But I was very busy in those days and was always on the go. When I went home, my cousin had already returned to her in-law's house. But I heard from my wife that on New Year's Eve, your cat took a group of wild cats and patrolled the village, and even went to my cousin's house to show off?" Chu Xu asked with a smile .

After Chunzhi paused, Mrs. Wang rushed forward hastily. "What do you want to do? Huh? Help the surname Wang settle accounts with us? You're dreaming! Believe it or not, I can kick you out with a broom right now!"

As she spoke, her eyes swept over the big broom in the corner.

Chu Xu quickly waved his hands. "Ms. Chai, you have misunderstood me! My cousin has already married out of the family, so she is a member of the Wang family. Why should I help her? I came here today to discuss something serious with you. It is a good thing! Really! "

Only then did Wang's aura weaken a little bit.

"What's the matter? You explain it to me now!"

"Hey, it's really a good thing!" Chu Xu sighed.Originally, he wanted to put on a show again, but seeing that Mrs. Wang seemed to be about to pounce on him and explode, he still swallowed the extra words, and hurriedly told the truth, "This is how it happened. I am very interested in the stories about these cats in your family. I have seen so many cats in my life, and I have never met such a powerful one. They can also patrol in groups automatically, which is impossible for many people. So, I thought, I happen to have a lot of shops, and there are many people in the shop, and people often steal things. The work in the shop is hard to see. We used to plan to raise a dog, but such a dog A big dog chained in a shop is scary, so let's give up on the idea. But now that I think about it, if I change the dog into a cat, it will be fine. Cats don't pay much attention to people, and they are small. It’s fine even if you lie down in the store.”

So he came here for this?
When Chun Zhi heard this, she immediately breathed a sigh of relief.

But Mrs. Wang yelled again suddenly: "You nonsense! Tell me honestly, are you going to catch the cat back and then slaughter it for stew? You rich people are the worst, my cat will not give it to you." you!"

The corner of Chu Xu's mouth twitched. "My family is rich, and I can't eat whatever I want. Why do I come to your house to buy it just to stew two cats?"

"Then who knows? Maybe you just wanted to do this on purpose?" Wang said angrily.

Chu Xu looked up at the sky and rolled his eyes speechlessly.

Forget it, he doesn't care too much about Wang.He finally discovered that besides Chai Dong, the head of the family, Chun Zhi was the most thought-provoking person in this family.

He hurriedly turned to Chun Zhi, "Of course, I know that these cats are your favorites, and you must have spent a lot of effort to train the cats to be like this, so I won't take these cats for nothing, I will give you money! How much is a cat, you just set a price!"

"I don't want money." Chun Zhi immediately shook his head, "But... I have one condition."
