During dinner, Li Qingzhi talked with Li Damao and Li Ermao for a while.
He enjoyed talking to both children.
When he is in a bad mood, he chats with others, especially with Jin Xiaoye or the two children, and his mood immediately improves.
Li Qingzhi was writing a book this afternoon, but Li Damao and Li Ermao had already gotten used to the fact that Li Qingzhi had to write or read and had no time to accompany them, so they didn't mind at all and just chattered with Li Qingzhi about what they had encountered and what they had done today.
Something big happened in Linhu County, but the people in Chongcheng County continued to live their lives as usual, and these children knew nothing about it.
It was still early after dinner, so Li Qingzhi moved a stool to the yard and sat there to tell stories to the three children.
He read a lot of books in his previous life and knew so many stories. Plus, he could make up his own stories... he would never be able to finish telling them.
As he was talking, there was a knock on the back door. Li Qingzhi went to open the door and saw Chang Duan and Chang Zhan.
"Mr. Li, we are here." Chang Zhan spoke, looking into the yard.
Chang Duan also looked towards the yard, looking a little nervous.
Li Qingzhi knew they were looking for Chang Cui: "Come in."
He made way for the two brothers to enter. Then Chang Cui, who had moved a small stool to sit and listen to his story, suddenly rushed over and said, "Uncle!"
Chang Cui hugged Chang Zhan's leg and cried loudly: "Uncle!"
Chang Cui has been having a good time at the Jinye Embroidery Workshop during this period.
In the morning she stayed with the female workers, and in the afternoon Li Damao, Li Ermao and Zhao Xiaodou would play with her.
But she still missed Chang Zhan very much, and she cried from time to time because of this.
"Cuicui!" Chang Duan picked up Chang Cui, his eyes red.
He watched Chang Cui grow up, and this was the first time he had been away from Chang Cui for such a long time... He missed Chang Cui too.
Chang Duan stood aside, looking at his two relatives helplessly.
At this time, Li Qingzhi noticed that there were two large ships parked outside, and the ships were packed with people.
"Are these the laborers?" Li Qingzhi asked Chang Duan. He had heard Chang Duan say that some laborers in the quarry were going to follow them.
Li Qingzhi was more than happy to do so.
He didn't dare to trust the workers hired from outside, but these laborers were definitely trustworthy.
But his house can't accommodate so many people.
Li Qingzhi looked at Chang Duan and said, "I have a shop and a house outside the city. You can stay there. Do you want to go there now or wait?"
Chang Duan glanced at his daughter and said, "Go over now."
In fact, on the way here, Chang Duan told Chang Zhan that he would not recognize Cuicui for the time being.
It might be dangerous for him to go to the capital. If something happens to him after they recognize each other... How sad would Cuicui be
Besides, he will be very busy during this period and will not be able to take care of Cuicui.
Li Qingzhi also realized that Chang Duan had no intention of recognizing his daughter, so he said something to Jin Xiaoye, got on the boat, and took the two boats of people to the new dock.
It's good that these people can live in Zhu Qian's house and help print books.
On the way, Li Qingzhi not only gave directions, but also talked to Chang Duan and asked about the situation in Linhu County.
