Opening Six Maids
Chapter 20: One can't forget one's roots
Chuci left Zhoufu and walked along Changjie.
When passing a shop, Chu Ci stopped.
In Chu Ci’s memory, the living conditions of the predecessor were not good. The Longyan Empire’s subsidies could only pay for the college’s tuition. As for the daily necessities, they all relied on the help of neighbors in Wuyi Lane.
Now that Chuci is carrying a huge sum of eight hundred taels of money, it is necessary to compensate for caring for his neighbors.
"If Aunt Luo... give me a piece of fabric."
"Uncle Qi sent a few jars of good wine..."
"Uncle Liu, let someone give some furniture..."
"As for Uncle Teng... he gave that boy Teng Liu a long knife. He must like it."
Chuci stopped and walked all the way, strolling past shops, and when he arrived at the entrance of Wuyi Lane, he had already carried a lot of things in his hand, and there was a flatbed truck behind him with more sundries piled on it.
"Little Chu?"
Chuci again ran into Aunt Luo who came to the alley to pour water.
Aunt Luo carried the bucket and looked at Chu Ci with doubts, "Xiao Chu, why are you holding so many things?"
A smile appeared on Chu Ci's face and said aloud, "These are all bought for the neighbors in the alley, everyone has it!"
After Chu Ci finished, he took a piece of cloth from the flatbed truck behind him.
"Aunt Luo, this is the fabric I bought for you. See if you like it or not."
Aunt Luo's eyes fell subconsciously on the cloth in Chuci's hands, with an unbelievable expression on her face, "Here, for me?!"
Chu Ci nodded, and handed the cloth to Aunt Luo, "The material of Sun Ji cloth line, look at it."
"Sun Ji cloth line? It must be very expensive, right? This, this..." Aunt Luo looked at the cloth in front of her, feeling a little at a loss for a while.
Chu Ci looked at Aunt Luo with a smile, and did not disturb her.
For the people living in Wuyi Lane, a good piece of fabric is definitely something that can be met but not sought.
After a long while, Aunt Luo came back to his senses, looked away from the fabric with dismay, looked at Chu Ci with a worried expression, "Xiao Chu, these things must have cost a lot of money, right?"
"Where did you get the money?"
Chu Ci smiled and said, "Aunt Luo, you forgot that I was admitted by the Deception Office?"
"Money is the resettlement fee from the Department of Sorrow!"
Being admitted by the Department of Sorrow will indeed give you some placement fees, but you can never buy so many things, but the people in Wuyi Lane don't understand, only know that Chuci is a good boy who doesn't forget his roots.
"Xiao Chu, these resettlement fees should be saved so that they can marry a wife in the future, so why are they spent?"
Aunt Luo said in an annoying tone, "Aunt Luo took it, but I can't ask for this thing."
Chu Ci shook his head and said with a smile, "I can make more money if I don't have any money, but I can't forget the care that Aunt Luo and the big guy have shown me!"
"Without everyone's help over the years, I couldn't be admitted by the Department of Guilty."
"Aunt Luo, you accept things, don't refuse!"
Aunt Luo was silent for a moment when she heard the words, but her eyes were slightly red, "Okay, good boy!"
Aunt Luo put down the bucket, raised the back of her hand and wiped her eyes, then wiped her hands with her jacket skirt, and then carefully took over the cloth.
"Xiao Chu, that auntie cloth accepted it, and it happened that your sister Linghua was arguing for a new dress."
Aunt Luo raised her hand and gently rubbed the fabric, for fear of accidentally breaking it.
Chu Ci turned around and pulled up the flatbed truck, and said with a smile, "Aunt Luo, I'm leaving now, and I have to send things to Uncle Teng and the others."
Aunt Luo held the cloth and stood by the side of the alley, giving way to Chu Ci, "Go, your Uncle Teng and they will definitely be very happy."
Chuci walked all the way along the alley, from door to door giving away all the things he bought, and finally came to the door of Chang Tengshan in the alley.
Boom! Boom! Boom!
Standing in front of the closed door, Chu Ci raised his hand and knocked.
Squeak —
After a while, the wooden door opened and Teng Liu's head appeared from the crack in the door.
"Brother Chu?!"
Teng Liu came out and looked at Chu Ci in surprise, "Brother Chu, come in!"
Chu Ci raised his hand and rubbed Liu Teng Liu's irritable head, and asked with a smile, "Six son, where's your father?"
Teng Liu led Chuci into the courtyard, turned around and closed the door, "My father just finished eating and is resting in the house."
"Go, go in."
Chu Ci nodded and walked towards the house.
Teng Liu followed behind Chuci, watching Chuci carrying a long object in his hand. The object was wrapped in red cloth, and he couldn't tell what it was.
"Brother Chu, what are you holding in your hand?"
Teng Liu walked to Chuci's side and asked curiously.
"Haha..." Chu Ci chuckled lightly, "You'll know later."
While talking, Chuci had already entered the house, and Teng Liu continued to practice boxing outside the house.
Tengshan's home is not big, and there are only two pavilions in the house. The outside is a stove, where the fire is used for cooking and eating, and the inside is a place where the family sleeps.
When Chuci entered the house, Tengshan was sitting shirtless on a small stool outside, sipping tea with a sea bowl.
"Xiao Chu is here?"
Tengshan raised his eyes to see Chu Ci, put down the bowl and said, "Sit down, have you eaten?"
Chu Ci nodded and smiled, "It's finished."
Tengshan turned his head and yelled towards the inside, "My son, give Xiao Chu another bowl of tea!"
After a while, a woman walked out of the room, carrying an iron pot to make a bowl of tea for Chu Ci, "Xiao Chu, this is the scented tea picked by my aunt on the mountain, you can try it."
Chu Ci hurriedly took the tea and said with a smile, "Thank you aunt, let me come."
The woman put the iron kettle aside, curled her hair and said, "Xiao Chu, you will talk to your uncle for a while, and my aunt will go back to the house and give your uncle a pair of shoes."
Tengshan poured himself a bowl of water, looked at Chu Ci and said, "Xiao Chu, are you ready to go to the sly place?"
Chu Ci smiled and said, "There is nothing to prepare. You can get food and clothing at the Deceptive Place."
Tengshan put down the bowl and looked at Chu Ci solemnly, "Xiao Chu, although I have never been in a place of deception, I also know the danger of a place of deception!"
Raising his hand to touch the broken arm, Tengshan said in a sighing tone, "You know, this uncle's arm was bitten by a demon!"
"Xiao Chu, remember, nothing is more important than your own safety!"
