Chapter 187: Someone Came to Ask for a Cat Again
γChinese Networkγ, to provide you with wonderful reading.
Such a serious conversation between one person and one cat seems really weird.
However, seeing Chai Dong's serious expression, the little third son also opened his eyes wide, and this picture was very harmonious.
After a few more words of explanation to the third son, Chai Dong took the burden on his back and turned around and left in stride.
He's really leaving. Seeing that his figure was getting more and more away from her, Chunzhi suddenly felt reluctant in her heart, and she couldn't help but take two steps forward. And the little third son was one step faster than her, it caught up in three steps and two steps, and jumped on Chai Dong's shoulder!
In the past, it only climbed on the shoulders of Haruke, but it didn't bother to climb on other people! As a result, now, he actually crawled on Chai Dong?
Chai Dong noticed this, and he was shocked.
Quickly stopped, he looked down at the little third son, and saw the little third son raise his head and meow at him a few times, and immediately jumped down again, facing him directly with his buttocks, but he didn't even look back, and walked straight into the village.
This picture looks even more weird.
Chai Dong and Wang were a little stunned, and the two of them looked at Chunzhi together.
Harue is helpless and funny. "It just can't bear you, and just now I couldn't help but pounce over to say goodbye to you. But after saying goodbye, it feels that it is too embarrassing for it to lower its body and show favor to you like this, and it will not know how to end up for a while, so it can only leave quickly, so as not to stay and be embarrassed. β
As she spoke, she laughed happily again. "But if you say that, in fact, it has already accepted you in its heart. It's just that for the sake of face, it hasn't shown itself. β
"Heh, a cat still has face?" Wang chuckled.
Chai Dong was convinced of Chunzhi's words.
"Is that so? That's pretty good. He nodded, and looked at her again, "I'm leaving." β
Then, he turned his head completely and walked away without looking back.
Chai Dong is gone, and it will be a few months before he can come back.
Harue thought she could handle it. But on the day he left, she began to feel empty around her, and her heart was empty, and it was very unpleasant inside and out.
Especially at night, she was lying on the bed alone, although she was still accompanied by the snoring of the little third son, but she tossed and turned, and always felt that something was missing. It's easy to fall asleep in a daze, she seems to feel that there seems to be someone around her half-asleep, and she can't help but rub it over there, but it turns out to be empty. When she opened her eyes, she saw half of the empty space around her, and her mood sank.
After a few days, her spirit became worse and worse, and she was also weak, and she was groggy more than she was awake every day.
Wang is still in good spirits.
Speaking of which, this is not the first time Chai Dong has left her side, she has long been used to it. However, this is the first time Chai Dong has been out alone for a long time, so she still can't stop chattering every day, either guessing where Chai Dong has gone, or thinking about who and what he met on the way. When Chunzhi heard it in his ears, the melancholy in his heart deepened.
Waiting until half a month later, someone passed by the village and brought them a letter - it was written by Chai Dong to keep them safe.
Although Chunzhi has never gone to school, she has been with Chai Dong day and night in the past two years, and Chai Dong intends to teach her, so now she already recognizes a few words. Chai Dong's letter was written very simply, although there were still many words that Chunzhi didn't recognize, but she read it from beginning to end, and she almost understood it.
"Mother, Xianggong said that he has arrived at the academy and has been settled. The academy is very good, everyone has a separate place to live, and food is also provided by the academy. He also said that the academy will take exams every month, and the top three in the exams can get a reward of ten taels of silver, and he has decided to work hard for this reward. β
"Okay, it's good that my son is safe!" Wang hurriedly folded his hands and recited Amitabha.
As for Chai Dong's hard work to study and get rewards, she didn't worry about it at all!
It was easy to get Chai Dong's handwritten letter, and Chunzhi's heart gradually settled down. In February, the weather warmed up, and the baby in her belly was five months old. This belly is like the willow leaves by the river, and it begins to swell outward, almost every day.
Now that she's like this, it's not very convenient for her to move. Wang had to be busy with things at home and didn't have much time to take care of her, so he could only ask her to stay at home.
"You can do embroidery now with peace of mind! It's best to make one piece a month, and the money you earn can buy me books, paper and pens. Now he is a student of Bailu Academy, and he has to use pen, ink, paper, and inkstone well, otherwise he will be laughed at! Wang explained to her.
Of course, Chunzhi also understood this truth, so she nodded hurriedly and worked more diligently.
Before I knew it, half a month had passed. At the end of February, Chu Xu suddenly appeared in their village again. And this time, he also took the initiative to come to Chunzhi's house!
"I'm here to visit you this time." After entering the door, Chu Xu greeted Chunzhi with a smile.
"Hmph, there is nothing to be done, it is either a traitor or a thief!" Wang immediately opened his mouth coolly.
Chu Xu was still smiling. "If you have to say that, Madame Chai, that's fine. I did have something to do today. β
"Young Master Chu, what's the matter with you? This month's embroidery will be ready in no time. Haruka quickly pointed to the rack in the yard.
"Really? Then I'll have to take a good look. Chu Xu hurriedly walked over and looked at it, then nodded with satisfaction, "Chai Niangzi, your skills are really improving!" This one is obviously better looking than the two pieces a year ago, and the artistic conception is more far-reaching! I can sell this thing at a high price if I keep it! β
"Of course, I believe in your ability, Young Master Chu." Harue nodded, "However, what is the purpose of your coming here today?" β
"Oh, here's the thing. On the second day of the first lunar month, didn't my cousin go back to her parents' house to pay New Year's greetings? But I was busy in those days, and I was out and about all the time. By the time I went home, my cousin had already gone back to her mother-in-law's house. But I heard my wife say that on the thirtieth day of the Chinese New Year's Eve, your cat with a group of wild cats also patrolled the village, and specially went to my cousin's house to show off his might? Chu Xu asked with a smile.
As soon as Chunzhi was stunned, the Wang family had already rushed forward with a roar. "What do you want to do? Well? Will you help the man surnamed Wang settle accounts with us? You dream! Believe it or not, I can get you out with a broom right now! β
As she spoke, her eyes already swept over the big broom in the corner.
Chu Xu hurriedly waved his hand. "Mrs. Chai, you misunderstood me! My cousins have already married out of the family, that is the Wang family, what account can I help her calculate? I'm here today to discuss something serious with you. It's a good thing! It's true! β
Wang's momentum weakened a little.
"What's the matter? You make it clear to me now! β
"Hey, that's a good thing!" Chu Xu sighed lowly. Originally, he wanted to pretend again, but seeing that Wang seemed to be about to pounce and explode, he still swallowed the extra words into his stomach, and hurriedly told the truth, "Here's the thing. I'm very interested in what my cousin told me about your cats. I've seen so many cats in my life, and I've never met such a powerful one, and I can automatically and spontaneously form a team to patrol, which is something that many people can't do! So, I thought, it just so happens that there are many shops in my house, and there are many people in the shop, and people often steal things. I can't see the work in the shop. We used to plan to have a dog, but the idea of a big dog tethered to the shop was scary, so the idea was abandoned. But now that I think about it, if I could replace the dog with a cat, it would be fine. The cat has never been very good at dealing with people, and it is small, even if it lies in the store, it is fine. β
So he's here with this?
When Chunzhi heard this, she quickly breathed a sigh of relief.
Wang suddenly shouted again: "You nonsense! Tell me honestly, are you planning to catch the cat and slaughter it and drink it? You rich people are the worst, my cat won't give it to you! β
The corners of Chu Xu's mouth twitched. "My family has money, I can't eat what I want, so why don't I come to your house to buy it for two cats?"
"Then who knows? Maybe you just wanted to do that on purpose? Wang said angrily.
Chu Xu looked up at the sky and rolled his eyes speechlessly.
Forget it, he doesn't care much about the Wang family. He found out that in this family, in addition to Chai Dong, the head of the family, the most thoughtful one is Chunzhi.
He hurriedly turned to Chunzhi, "Of course, I know that these cats are your heart's meat, and you must have put a lot of effort into training cats like this, so I won't take these cats for nothing, I'll give you money!" How much is a cat, you can make a price! β
"I don't want money." Haruka immediately shook her head, "But...... I have one condition. "Mobile phone users, please browse m. to read, a better reading experience.
