She fell out after crying at the wrong grave
Chapter 68: Give a Favor
"Are we sure we want to do this?"
The sky was bright and the cicadas were chirping.
The magnolia trees are not blooming well this spring, but their leaves are growing very nicely, bright green.
A'an changed into a very light skirt and stood in the yard feeding the rabbits with full energy.
I don't know whether these three rabbits are male or female. I always feel that there is something wrong with the white one recently. It always pulls out the gray rabbit's hair.
Yunli followed her instructions, brought a large sack from the kitchen, and stood behind with a worried look on his face.
This……
After all, even though we now know that General Chu is not a good person, it is not to the point of...
Pick all his peaches.
"Why can't we do this?" Ah-yi asked with a half-strip of radish in her hand. "The weather this year is abnormal. It's already too hot at 11:00 p.m. The peach trees of the fruit farmers are all damaged by the sun. Peaches are so expensive. What's wrong with picking a few peaches?"
Yes, you are not even sent to jail, so what’s wrong with picking a few peaches?
"Besides," Ah-yi thought about it, "Aren't peaches planted for people to eat? What's the point of letting them rot on the tree? Chu Hui is alone now, why would he want to have students all over the world? If his teacher knew about his private... behavior, he would be so angry that he would jump out of his grave."
The tone of his mumbling voice seemed to make him feel upset and confused by the thick and hot air.
that's the truth.
After most of the merchants left Kezhou, everything returned to normal.
First, Gong Sheng settled down in the city and officially started practicing medicine at Xing'antang. Then Chu Qingfang offered a gift of wine and became Gong Sheng's last disciple, thus entering the world of medicine.
The site of the school was still in place. Hengzhi wrote a letter and sent it to the court. It was soon approved and construction began.
As the organizer, Zhang Hai, at A's suggestion, summoned all the merchants of the Chamber of Commerce, big and small, to a banquet at Changqing Tower, and persuaded them one by one to contribute money.
At first, almost no one was willing to invest in such charity, as they all thought it was a waste of money. But when the issue of school enrollment for their children was raised, everyone's eyes lit up and they began to waver.
Ah-yi advised Zhang Hai openly and secretly that if someone was rich but unkind, he should take more. On the contrary, if someone was kind and honest in doing business, even if he invested a small amount, it would be considered as adding bricks and tiles to the family, and he should also accept the kindness.
After counting his own assets and paying off the money he had borrowed from Hengzhi, he only had three hundred taels left.
When Mrs. Zhou heard that she was going to build a school, she thought it was a great charity and took out three hundred taels from her own pocket to make up the difference as a good deed.
So when they saw that the shopkeeper of Shui Changdong, who was also the new wife of Zhao Hou, had taken out six hundred taels not long after opening the business, they were afraid that he had emptied out his savings, and everyone was embarrassed to try to save more.
Besides, Shopkeeper Zhang has already explained with good intentions that the more funds raised, the better the study environment will be for our children in the future. Which parent would not pay for it?
Soon, the money was collected, the people were hired, and everything was just waiting to start.
Zhang Hai felt that he had no ability to build anything, and he was also wary of the incident at the parade ground, fearing that he would be framed by others when he reached a high position. So after discussing with his wife, he gave up this reputation on his own.
Ah-yi would run back and forth between the shop and the school during the day, and at night she would go back to check accounts and write funeral and wedding couplets. She was so busy that she made Heng-chi busy with his official duties every day, and he also worried about Ah-yi's safety on the road.
All the decorations on the long table in the study were removed, and the two of them each took half of it, busying themselves with their own work.
There was a thunderstorm yesterday, and even though the wood and sand were covered, there were still some places that were soaked. It was impossible to start work today, and A'ao finally got a day's rest.
With something on her mind, she was getting impatient waiting for the person. Ah-yi stroked the round body of the white rabbit and couldn't help asking, "Why hasn't Heng-chi come yet?"
When it came to picking peaches, Hengzhi agreed immediately last night.
He also traveled between the court and the parade ground for several days, and also went to Louguan. It took him seven or eight days to go back and forth. He had not had a chance to relax for a long time.
What I want is not the peach, I just want to be together.
But isn't this rabbit really pregnant?
"Yunli, if someone in the mansion gets sick one day, please ask a doctor to come and see what the problem is."
Although Ah-yi herself felt it was strange to ask a doctor who treated humans to treat the rabbit. There were no alchemists who specialized in treating livestock, and if the rabbit was really sick, she couldn't just let it die.
All things are living beings.
Hengzhi did not come, but asked Yuncheng to come and tell her that he was waiting for her in the Chu Mansion.
Ah's depressed mood, along with the scorching sun early in the morning, reached an untouchable peak.
"The master also said..." Yun Cheng weighed her expression and his voice gradually became lower.
"say what?"
The man was smiling, but his words and expressions made it sound as if he would be killed without mercy if he said one more word.
Yun Cheng closed his eyes and made up his mind. He just thought of himself as a messenger. "I told you to throw away the sack. It's useless. The master has already taken a lot of large bamboo baskets."
The two people looked at A'ao gritting her teeth, her red lips slightly curled up as she exerted force. One of them chanted "Amitabha" and the other had already started burning incense for the young marquis.
The Chu Mansion removed the plaque of the Military Officer's Mansion, which made it look even more deserted. In addition, there were soldiers guarding all around, so even though the peaches were big and juicy, not even a bird dared to steal them.
Standing at the door, I could even smell the fragrance of peaches.
The people who come to help pick peaches are the guys who have free time today and don't have to work.
With the idea of saving as much as possible, Ah-yi went to ask Zheng Da about hiring someone. They were all in this business before, so they must have more connections.
Later, at his suggestion, A'an found Zheng Da's younger brother Zheng Er, who took the lead in gathering a group of people who were often engaged in house construction. The wages were reasonable and the people were hardworking, which was a good thing that had the best of both worlds.
Hengzhi saw A'an coming from a distance and smiled. Sure enough, there was a pile of bamboo baskets on the ground that had not been moved yet.
Ah'ao felt that she was not the kind of person who held grudges, and her anger had dissipated a lot on the way here, especially when she saw good-looking people smiling, she became even less angry.
I walked past him dejectedly, unable to give a simple greeting, "Good morning."
Yunli and Yuncheng looked at each other from behind, both of them confused. "I guessed that you were going to use a sack to hold the peaches, and I guessed it right." Hengqi followed her half a step behind her and reached out to adjust the hairpin with a pendant that was about to fall off Ah's temple.
The head of the hairpin is heavy and the tail is light, so it is bound to fall off.
"do not move."
Heng Zhi said softly, and stretched out his arm to stop her. His skills were not very good, so he compared it again and again before daring to insert it.
I was afraid of hurting her hair, which was even more difficult than controlling the strength of holding a knife or a gun.
"Are you done?" Ah'ao was afraid that he would pull her hair, so she spoke carefully.
The scene that night is still vivid in my mind.
The atmosphere was so lively that one could hear a light silk fan catching fireflies, and the moonlight was as soft and quiet as light satin.
Hengzhi lowered his head to look for her white teeth and bright eyes. Ah'ao raised her head and put her arms around his shoulders.
Then——
"Ah! Hiss—hair, hair!"
They both seemed to recall this anecdote and couldn't help smiling.
"Cough cough!"
There are always situations that ruin the atmosphere.
"You two, please come in and show some affection. It's inappropriate to stand at the door." Chu Hui had a stern face and felt even more resentful towards the two thieves who stole the peaches.
Not only do they steal his peaches, but they also want to ruin his family!
Their faces are almost touching!
It's so vulgar, happening in broad daylight.
A marquis and a princess, they are both people of status.
In an instant, the bodies were separated.
The August heat returned, burning from the ears to the cheeks.
The door closed, and Ah-yi rolled up her sleeves. "Hey, Xiao Chu?"
When one is about to give a lecture, he naturally puts on some airs.
Hengzhi was slightly startled, but as it was a rare scene to see, he watched leisurely from the side.
Chu Hui turned back in surprise, unable to believe that the words were actually calling him.
"Princess, what do you mean?"
"Oh." Ah-yi nodded, raised her chin and asked, "You also know that I'm a princess? In public, you don't understand the meaning of the monarch and the ministers. In private, you have transferred all your power to me. I am still your superior. What's wrong with picking a few peaches from you to subsidize the court?"
Chu Hui was dumbfounded. She had never expected that she was such a person who made unreasonable arguments.
Ah Yi took her time to calculate, "Do you know how much the bank found was missing? Wei Guohui and Liu Jingming, as well as their lawless minions, have embezzled money. Do you know how much the total is? Even if you chop down these dozen peach trees and keep them growing, they won't be enough to pay for it."
"Aren't you afraid of shortening your life by calling me that?" Chu Hui had no words to refute. He was so angry that his face turned red. He pointed at Ah'ao and spoke without thinking.
The young marquis stopped watching the fun at this time, his smile faded, and he looked away coldly, "You might as well think about it before you speak."
What else can Chu Hui say and what can she dare to say.
Before walking to the peach tree, Ah-yi thought about it and turned back to tell Chu Hui, "If I was really afraid of shortening my life, I wouldn't be thinking about Shen Cong and Shen Lang every time I cried at someone's grave, don't you think?"
The smile is bright, but it hides a sharp edge.
"Madman, all those with the surname Shen are crazy." Chu Hui fled and returned to his dark study, muttering.
Hengzhi didn't hear this. He thought that Ah'ao would definitely climb up the tree to pick the fruits herself, so he took out a pair of gloves and prepared to force her to wear them.
The peaches are sweet and juicy, but the fuzz on the fruits is really annoying and difficult to remove.
Chu Hui's peach tree is very well taken care of. It can be said to be graceful and elegant. The pink peaches hang heavily on the branches, as beautiful as a young girl.
"Would you like to compete?" Ah-yi tapped Heng-chi's shoulder. "One stick of incense, let's see who picks the most. If you lose, I'll use the peaches I picked today to make basil peaches myself. How do you think?"
I learned this from Ruzui. She is particularly good at making these. I don’t know where these foods came from.
Ah-yi practiced martial arts with Qin Xi, and her arm strength and physical strength improved. In addition, she was not afraid of heights but enjoyed the pleasure of climbing trees. Heng-yi suddenly felt that he was being used.
"Are you sure you'll lose?" Hengzhi picked up a basket and handed it to her.
"Don't you want to win?"
The teasing in her words made Hengzhi stare at her for a moment.
There is no difference in the desire to win between them, but there is always one person who wants to win more.
Ah'ao said one thing and meant another, but her eyes showed determination to win.
"Okay." Heng Qi looked away, but couldn't help curling his lips when he wasn't looking at anyone, "As long as you want."
Then let you win.
