Chapter 42 A beautiful woman is like jade
"What the master said in this excerpt is very appropriate. "Lin Puqing said after looking at it, "Hu Guangyong's murder of the servants, there is no need to mention it, there is someone to protect him, the master just played with the center to know, and now Hu Guangyong has nothing to do with the shipmaster, even if someone participates in the impeachment of him, it is not to blame the shipmaster."www.biquge.info β
"Yes! For the sake of Harbourmaster, it must be so. Shen Baozhen sighed, "It's just that Zuo Gong is so unhappy again." β
Keeping Hu Guangyong here, the bullets in the DPRK were like snowflakes, and he Zuo Jigao was afraid that he would not be even happier. At that time, the Harbour Master will also be ruined. Lin Puqing said disapprerovingly.
"Yes." Shen Baozhen laughed self-deprecatingly, "Anyway, the left and right will not be happy, it is better to keep the shipmaster." β
"So the matter has come to this, and the master doesn't have to dwell on it anymore." Lin Puqing said, "It's better to think more about the shipmaster's affairs, don't wait for him Hu Guangyong to leave, and then go wrong." β
"Well, Shou Shan has already taken over, and Xiao Tao and Zhe'er are also helping him with it, so it should be fine." Shen Baozhen sighed, "It's the porridge factory, I really can't rest assured......"
Because this year's climate is not as good as in previous years, typhoons and disasters are frequent, and many people along the coast have been affected, Shen Baozhen was very worried when he saw this, and while he did his best to assist Ma Xinyi Yinggui and others in disaster relief, he also paid for the construction of a porridge factory to help the victims.
"Don't worry, sir! Here I help the master take care of it, so the master doesn't have to worry about it. Lin Puqing comforted Shen Baozhen.
Early in the morning of this day, Lin Puqing got up early and prepared to go to the porridge factory to help the victims.
"Wan'er has difficulty moving, so don't go today." Seeing that Chen Wan, who was already with a big belly, came over early in the morning and waited to go to the porridge factory with her, Lin Puqing persuaded distressedly.
"Kunyu said that Wan'er goes out and walks around more, which is good for the fetus." Chen Wan grabbed Lin Puqing's arm like a little daughter, and said softly, "I also happen to have a care with my aunt." β
"Kunyu, this kid, I don't know which French doctor he heard these crooked theories." Lin Puqing nodded helplessly, "It's okay to take a walk, stay for a while and come back, so as not to collide with people and have an accident." β
"Hmm." Chen Wan nodded vigorously. Seeing that Chen Wan, who was originally petite and exquisite, now made Lin Yizhe look like this, Lin Puqing couldn't help but feel like a "boxing mother cone" in her heart.
Lin Puqing and Chen Wan and their entourage came to the porridge factory, at this time the porridge factory had begun to give porridge, the victims crowded forward, the workers of the porridge factory shouted loudly, while trying to maintain order, with a large wooden spoon to scoop the thick porridge that had been cooked in the big pot into the bowl in the hands of the victims.
Lin Puqing came to a cauldron to check the cooking of porridge, and the manager of the porridge factory saw Lin Puqing arrive and hurriedly ran over.
"Madame, please see, today's porridge is cooked thickly." The steward smiled and inserted a chopstick into the porridge in the cauldron and said.
"That's very good." Lin Puqing saw that the chopsticks stood impressively in the porridge, and nodded with satisfaction.
Lin Puqing looked around and saw that although the order of the victims receiving the porridge seemed a little chaotic, the scramble was not too strong, and the people who received the porridge were either squatting or sitting, and they were all drinking sweetly there. Lin Puqing and Chen Wan's eyes were mainly focused on those homeless children, because children were weak after all, and they couldn't rob adults.
"The children are all over there, and a special stove is set up to receive porridge to prevent adults from competing for it." The steward seemed to understand Lin Puqing and Chen Wan's thoughts, and pointed to a porridge shed not far away with a smile and said, "Madame, do you want to go over and have a look?" β
Lin Puqing nodded, and walked with Chen Wan and the others to the porridge shed dedicated to distributing porridge to children.
As soon as Lin Puqing and his party entered the porridge shed, the children who were waiting to receive the porridge suddenly surrounded them and stretched out their hands, Chen Wan and Caiyue had already prepared, and took out the rice cakes they brought and distributed them to the children one by one.
"Don't rob, don't rob! Everyone has a share! Caiyue divided the rice crackers while stopping the children's scramble.
Lin Puqing watched the distribution of rice crackers, trying to get all the children to receive them, when she noticed a ragged girl sitting quietly in a corner not far away, looking at the blue sky in the distance.
Lin Puqing looked at the girl curiously, because of this girl, she had been paying attention for a long time.
It was a girl of about six or seven years of age, thin and shabby, and she never was, like other children who received porridge, who flocked to the people who came to share the porridge and other foodstuffs, and always stayed quietly until there was no one to fight, and then went to get her share.
And when she saw that some of the young children did not get it, she would give them the food she had already received.
The girl seemed to sense that someone was staring at her, and she turned her head to meet Lin Puqing's gaze.
Maybe it was the girl's bright eyes that attracted her like a stream of autumn water, Lin Puqing separated everyone and came to the girl's side.
"Good boy, where's your father?" Lin Puqing squatted down beside the girl, gently grabbed her little hand, and asked.
"Mrs. Hui, my father is dead." The girl replied softly, "My mother...... I...... I don't know who my mother is......"
"Poor boy, what's your name?" Lin Puqing felt sorry in his heart and asked again.
"My name is Li Sizhu, the thought of the quiet night, the bamboo of pine, bamboo and plum." The girl replied.
"Sizhu, if I were to be your mother, would you be willing?"
"Sizhu - willing to ......"
"Sizhu is good, I'll go home with my mother."
Chen Wan couldn't help but be surprised when she saw Lin Puqing take the girl's hand, as if she was holding her daughter's hand.
But when she saw the girl's eyes, she couldn't help but like her a little.
At this time, she couldn't imagine what kind of changes this girl named Li Sizhu would bring to her future life.

"It's ......"
When Lin Yizhe saw the delicate and quiet girl standing in front of him, he was in a trance for a while.
The girl in front of him actually gave him a sense of dΓ©jΓ vu!
"Sizhu, this is my uncle." Cai Yue saw Lin Yizhe's surprised appearance, and introduced them with a smile, "Uncle, this is the goddaughter that the old lady just received, Li Sizhu." β
"Hello uncle." The girl named Li Sizhu saw Lin Yizhe looking at her directly, she looked a little flustered, lowered her head and said softly.
Lin Yizhe amused her greeting, he realized that he might have scared the girl just now, he couldn't help but smile, retracted his gaze, and said; "In that case, then you shouldn't call me uncle, right?"
Li Sizhu made his face blush, and his head hung lower.
"Yes! That's a brother and sister. Cai Yue also laughed and teased her.
"Brother......" Li Sizhu looked up at Lin Yizhe, and really called it that.
"Hehe, did my uncle hear that? changed his words, but ah, didn't my uncle say anything? Caiyue, who loves to joke, laughed and teased Lin Yizhe.
"Of course it has to be expressed." Lin Yizhe raised his eyebrows, took out a small jade pendant from his sleeve, leaned over, and put it on his chest for Li Sizhu, "This piece of jade will be given to my sister as a meeting gift." β
This is an ancient jade dragon pendant of the Shang and Zhou dynasties, the jade dragon curls up without claws, the appearance is similar to the Hongshan jade pig dragon, it can be said that it is deeply influenced by the Hongshan jade culture, but the difference is that this kind of Shang and Zhou ancient jade is made into sheets, which is lighter and thinner than the Hongshan jade pig dragon, and the surface is also engraved with hook back lines, and the workmanship is more exquisite and detailed.
This piece of jade dragon pendant is made of Hetian green and white jade, with yellow-brown Tuqin on it, because it is a heirloom, after years of cherishing and playing, the surface of the jade treasure light has been generated, at this time hanging on Li Sizhu's chest, the jade reflects each other, and it is more warm and subtle beauty.
"It's so pretty." Cai Yue praised.
Lin Yizhe looked at Li Sizhu, and was also a little surprised that this piece of jade matched this girl so well, as if it was prepared for her.
"Thank you, brother......"
Li Sizhu stroked the jade dragon pendant with her hand, the corners of her eyes flashed, she didn't want people to see the tears in the corners of her eyes, so she hurriedly lowered her head again. But Lin Yizhe still saw her strangeness.
Lin Yizhe keenly felt that the girl in front of him, who was already his "sister", might have an unusual background.
"Uncle, this piece of jade was just received from an antique dealership?" Cai Yue felt strange that Lin Yizhe made such a piece of jade as if he was playing a trick, but she immediately guessed the answer as if she was familiar with Lin Yizhe's preferences.
"No, it was given to me by Mr. Riyige." Lin Yizhe shook his head and said with a smile, "It is said that this was given to him by a local retired official when he was in Ningbo to suppress the long hair, he thought it was an imperial medal, he was so happy that he hung it on his body for many days, and later he learned that it was a joke." β
Hearing Lin Yizhe's explanation, Cai Yue pursed her lips and laughed, not noticing that Li Sizhu's face turned slightly pale when he heard the word "long hair".
"Where do foreigners understand the beauty of this jade." Lin Puqing came out of the inner hall, just heard their conversation, and answered with a smile.
Lin Puqing came to Li Sizhu's side, gently picked up the jade dragon pendant on Li Sizhu's chest, looked at it, and said softly to Li Sizhu: "There is an ancient saying that 'a gentleman is more virtuous than jade'. What about this jade, there are five virtues, does Sizhu know it? β
Li Sizhu shook his head slightly.
"Jade is a beautiful stone, with five virtues: benevolence, righteousness, wisdom, courage and purity, 'benevolence' is softness, benevolence, as warm as jade; 'righteousness' is consistent inside and outside, upright and selfless, just like jade; 'wisdom' is wisdom and clarity, just like this transparent jade; 'brave' means unyielding, as solid and gorgeous as this jade, and 'jie' means upright and honest, as clean as this jade." Lin Puqing caressed the jade dragon pendant on Li Sizhu's chest, and explained "jade has five virtues" to Li Sizhu, "My brother gave you this jade in the hope that you can be like this jade in the future!" Got it? β
"Mother's teachings, Sizhu has written them down." Li Sizhu nodded vigorously, and a trace of perseverance appeared in his eyes, which made Lin Yizhe's heart on the side move.
Lin Yizhe would not have known that the jade dragon pendant he gave her would accompany her for the rest of her life.
