Seeing that the two were silent, the tall and thin man was immediately dissatisfied. Holding the reins, he raised his whip and threatened, "Hey, do you know or don't know this person?"
At this time, Father Chu stood up slowly, the rope in his hand behind his back, he wanted to touch his beard like Li Yuanwai, but he didn't have a beard, so he could only touch his chin, and then said seriously, "What's the matter with you guys? ?"
With Chu Qingyan on the side, she couldn't help but want to applaud, Daddy seems to have learned it!
"What, you, you are Chu Huaiyuan? Didn't you say you were a fool?" The tall and thin man stared so hard that his eyes were about to fall.
When Chu Qingyan heard the words, she immediately narrowed her eyes. This person was not very respectful in his words. He looked down on others and slandered them. It seemed that the visitor was not good.
"Caicai, is Daddy doing well?" Father Chu turned to his daughter and asked with a smile.
The tall and thin man was still immersed in shock, but when he saw him grabbing the little girl's hand and jumping three feet high, he couldn't help being annoyed that this fool was actually playing with him!
Seeing that the man was angry and wanted to attack, Chu Qingyan took the lead and stood up, "My father is Chu Huaiyuan, why are you looking for us?"
After her reminder, there was also a urging sound from the carriage not far away at this time, and the tall and thin man remembered his business, and hurriedly put away his annoyed expression.
As a result, a group of unexpected guests came to the Chu family's small thatched hut.
"Master, Madam, the old lady's surname is Li, this is Wang Ting, both of us are under the second lady's hand, because Master Chu misses Master Chu and his family very much recently, so my wife specially sent the old lady and Wang Come to Maocun to pick you up and take you back to the Chu family." A woman in her thirties with a big black mole on the corner of her mouth, grinning and showing her yellowed front teeth, said familiarly.
"This—" Mother Chu looked at the group of people in disbelief, as if a pie fell from the sky, but she couldn't believe it.
Chu Qingyan looked at the woman who was talking, her eyes were rolling, her fingers were twisting her handkerchief, she seemed to be insincere, or she was perfunctory, she couldn't help narrowing her eyes, this old lady Chu didn't want to, but ten years later. When she came to pick up people, she was attentive, and she was either a traitor or a thief, but she turned to look at her mother's expression, and she seemed to be a little overjoyed.
Seeing Mother Chu hesitate, Mrs. Li glanced at Wang Ting, Wang Ting immediately took a step forward and said to Mother Chu, "Madam, it's really hard for you and the eldest master to live here, look at this house, it can be said How can you give Miss Jiu a stable life? My wife said that as long as your family of three go back, you will be able to enjoy prosperity and wealth, and you will not have to worry about food and clothing for the rest of your life."
Chu Qingyan stared at Wang Ting, her tone was smooth, and when she said the last sentence, her tone floated, and when she heard it, she knew that she was duplicitous. When she was in the student union before, she had recruited several officers, and she still had a lot of experience in watching people, so these two people wanted to come here to make fun of them.
But she didn't understand, their family, weak mother and stupid father, what is there to be missed? Could it be that she thinks too much
At this moment, Mrs. Li's eyes fell on her, as if she was looking at the meat on the chopping board, with a green light, "This is Miss Jiu! She looks so handsome, if the old lady saw Jiu Miss, you will be very happy."
Chu Qingyan frowned. She didn't like the way Mrs. Li looked at her, and stood there blankly. Anyway, she was a wild girl in the countryside, and it was normal for her not to be polite.
Seeing that Chu Qingyan was playing with herself and didn't mean to say hello at all, a sneer appeared in Mrs. Li's eyes, she really grew up in the village and had no rules at all.
Several people talked again. At this time, the sky was already dark, and my mother packed a room for the group to rest. Chu Qingyan clearly saw the contempt in these people's eyes after scanning the room. I can't help but feel happy, these people are really snobs raised in the Chu family's courtyard.
Because the house was not big, Chu Qingyan's room was given to the man he picked up today, so Mother Chu asked Father Chu to squeeze with the man for one night, while she and her daughter slept in the same room.
Mother Chu and Father Chu went to the room to get the quilt, and Chu Qingyan walked into her room to see the unconscious man.
That person was still in the same posture as today, lying motionless. Chu Qingyan sometimes felt that if it wasn't for the breathing between his nose, she would have thought that this person would have died in the underworld.
Chu Qingyan came over, wrung the cloth dry, and wiped his face lightly, suddenly realizing that his complexion seemed to be less purple, but it had not completely dissipated. When she wanted to continue wiping for him, her mother suddenly called her, she immediately put down the cloth and walked out quickly.
At the moment when Chu Qingyan went out, those closed eyes opened again, he tried to move his hands, and found that the incense of the fire on his body had dissipated, and his limbs could move freely, he slowly sat up .
At this moment, a dark shadow flashed in front of him, "Master, it's too late to come down."
The man waved his hand and looked around, it was really simple enough.
The man in black didn't know what the master was looking at, so he said in a low voice, "Master, do you need your subordinates to get rid of all the people in this room?" The master's trace could not be revealed.
"No, leave some silver taels and leave immediately." The man said solemnly.
The man in black didn't know why the master wanted to do this, but he obediently took out a handful of silver notes from his arms and put it on the bed.
Seeing that the master raised his eyebrows, he didn't seem to be satisfied. The man in black immediately took out a stack of banknotes and added them to it. Only then did the master loosen his eyebrows, and a look of satisfaction appeared on his face. The man in black wiped his forehead. Sweat, today's master is really strange.
Now that the father and daughter have silver taels, they won't just think of people as their son-in-law who put onions upside down! He felt a little depressed when he thought of being treated as an upside down onion!
"Let's go!"
"Yes."
When Chu Qingyan came back, he found that the purple-faced man had vanished, but left behind twenty silver notes of one hundred taels. Maybe the other party really had some background that he couldn't tell anyone, so he was here. She woke up and left quietly, but for Chu Qingyan, she cared a little about who this person was. He could leave immediately, which was exactly what she wanted. After all, she was in a different world and had a humble status, and she didn't want to cause trouble.
Looking at the silver note in her hand, Chu Qingyan was still very happy. She sighed with emotion, it turns out that saving people can still make money. She will definitely save a few more people in the future, and maybe she will be able to make a fortune! But this is also a blind cat meets a dead mouse! She thought about it and gave up.
When Mother Chu saw so many silver taels, she was also startled, she hurriedly put it away, and told her daughter not to say it out easily, otherwise it would easily provoke people's jealousy, because these two thousand taels are not a small amount.
Chu Qingyan smiled and nodded, this windfall might make the family live a good life.
That night, Father Chu went to sleep in Chu Qingyan's room, and Chu Qingyan and Mother Chu lay down under a quilt.
"Caicai, do you want to go to Kyoto?" Mother Chu asked softly.
"Where the mother and father are, the daughter is there." Chu Qingyan heard the expectation in her mother's tone, and followed her words.
Mother Chu sighed after hearing this, "Caicai, my mother thinks the intention of the Chu family is unpredictable, but my mother thinks that the doctors in the capital are definitely better than the doctors in our village, and my mother wants to see a doctor for your father. Ten years ago, a famous doctor came to Kyoto, but unfortunately our family suffered a great change at that time, and we couldn't see him at all, and now I think of it with great regret."
It turned out that Mother had this plan, Chu Qingyan held Mother's hand, with a serious expression that did not match her age, "Mother, originally, my daughter didn't really want to go back to the Chu family, because she also felt that the Chu family was not well-intentioned. But the father's illness, the daughter thinks that we should go to the big town to see, maybe we can really find the famous doctor that the mother said, and we also have money on hand, so the medical expenses are not a problem. Our family thinks that there is nothing to do. If the Chu family is concerned, why don't you go back and have a look, it's really not good, let's move out."
"Okay." In the past, her husband was stupid and her daughter was weak. She could only make decisions on her own with tears in her own eyes. There was no one to discuss with her. When she heard her daughter's words, Mother Chu's heart was swaying in the air. I have also settled down, so that I didn't find my daughter's calmness beyond her age.
Chu Qingyan looked at the walls with peeling loess. Although she couldn't live a good life here, she at least lived a comfortable life. It was just that she remembered her father's illness and her mother's rough hands, and suddenly had the idea of going out. Although she is ten years old, she has a soul from the 21st century. Even if she can't give her parents a rich and prosperous life, it shouldn't be difficult to gain stability in this era.
But what Chu Qingyan could not have imagined was that fate always likes to change tricks and toss people, and she will also change her life by stepping into the Chu family.
