Chapter 145 Anger
Three secret books were sold for nine thousand taels of silver. Xia Zihan's happy eyes turned into crescent moons, and he even forgot about the shame and anger of accidentally kissing Chu Jingqi on the cheek.
Especially when she heard Ma Bao muttering that this was Chu Jingqi's only private money, the slits in her eyes became even smaller when she smiled.
Then, before leaving, she poked Chu Jingqi's sore spot and said, "Brother, do you still want the remaining secret books? I'll give you two thousand five hundred taels of silver for each book. As for business, you can do it once and you'll be familiar with it the second time. Sister Seeing that you are happy with the money, I will give you another discount.”
"Keep them all and I'll give you the money tomorrow."
Chu Jingqi's expression of "do you want to sell or not, just say it like this and no longer discuss it" made Xia Zihan almost choke to death on his saliva.
"If you don't sell it, I won't give it on credit."
Humph, I won’t sell it yet. If you leave it there for bugs to grow, it will be regarded as the worm’s daddy. I won’t sell it to you again.
"Nuanyu, Silk Grass, carry the box away."
Taking the maid and the remaining secret books, he marched back to his room.
Nuanyu put the secret books away one by one and resealed the box. Seeing Xia Zihan happily counting the banknotes, she couldn't help but stepped forward to remind her, "County Master, we got those three secret books." The most expensive secret book cost a total of more than eleven thousand taels of silver.”
If you sell it for nine thousand taels of silver, wouldn't you lose two thousand taels of silver?
Doesn’t the master always say that you can’t lose money in business? Why is she so happy even though she has lost money?
Nuanyu couldn't understand.
Xia Zihan rolled his eyes and said eloquently, "What do you know? When I bought those things, they were valuable because I didn't know how to do them. But now I have learned them all and memorized them. It’s not worth anything to me. Of course I’m happy to be able to cheat that bastard Chu Jingqi out of nine thousand taels of silver.”
However, Second Young Master Chu doesn't know how to do it now. To him, those secret books are of higher value?
However, Nuanyu kept these words in her heart, and she didn't dare to say them out, and she didn't dare to displease the young master.
She had already noticed that from the very beginning, the young master disliked Young Master Chu and always caused trouble for him.
But what's the reason?
Her little master has always done things steadily and properly, has he never been so childish?
Nuan Yu thought about it for a long time but couldn't figure it out. Finally she gave up and just let nature take its course, as long as the little master is happy.
Next, Chu Jingqi sent two boys to guard the door, simply to guard against Xia Zihan and forbid Xia Zihan from entering the house to disturb him, while he was in the house, absorbing water hungrily like a sponge. Martial arts in four secret books.
It was not until seven days later, when the boat stopped at the Minjiang Ferry, that Chu Jingqi washed up and left the house feeling refreshed.
As soon as he went out, he saw Xia Zihan coming out of his mother's house. His little face immediately tensed up, and his breath became colder. He looked like a prickly man, staring at her with wide eyes. He looked at Xia Zihan, fearing that she would plot something against him again.
Last time, she tricked him into removing his cheek. Even now, when he thinks about it, his cheek is still hot. The unfamiliar feeling makes him very uncomfortable.
Now, when he saw this ghostly little girl, he wanted to take a detour.
But this little girl just doesn't know how to look.
"Hey, brother, you are finally willing to give up. Just now, my aunt was talking about you, saying that you are a martial arts idiot. Once you practice martial arts, you will not eat, drink or sleep, just like an idiot."
< br>
Of course, she added the last sentence herself. Mrs. Zhuo would not call her son an idiot. She would only call her son an ice cube and a wooden man. He would not hold her arm and act coquettishly like other girls.
However, Mrs. Zhuo did complain that Chu Jingqi had never acted coquettishly with her, which made her depressed and regretful for a long time, why she never gave birth to more daughters.
After Xia Zihan heard this, a picture appeared in his mind.
Chu Jingqi smiled cutely, sitting in Zhuo's arms and nuzzling her, her little mouth pouted, acting very coquettishly.
God, that little one is so cute.
Xia Zihan's heart was racing, she really wanted to see it.
It's a pity that the real Chu Jingqi is just a little iceman made of ice. Let him sit in Zhuo's arms and act coquettishly, it would be better to kill him quickly.
In order to make up for Mrs. Zhuo's regret, Xia Zihan showed off her cuteness several times. Like a cute little girl, she showed her affection to Mrs. Zhuo several times, making Mrs. Zhuo so happy that she couldn't even find her.
As a result, Xia Zihan received a big red envelope from her uncle for nothing, and Xia Zihan was so happy that her heart blossomed and her eyebrows curled up.
And Xia Zihan finally enjoyed what maternal love is after two lives passed and her mental age was thirty years old.
She and Mrs. Zhuo, one lacked a daughter and the other lacked maternal love. When they got along, they were eager to find what they needed. Both of them were satisfied, and they got along better than a mother and daughter. My dear, our feelings are growing day by day.
Zhuo and Zeng, the godmother and daughter, also have a very good relationship. One is gentle and kind, the other is respectful and polite, and she is as lively as a girl. Three generations have been on the boat. These days, it is called a happy and happy life. Carefree.
Today, the boat will stay in the Minjiang River overnight. It needs to replenish some items and ingredients before setting sail early tomorrow morning.
Xia Zihan and Zhuo suggested getting off the boat and going for a walk. Minjiang City is also an old city with a long history. There are many places worth visiting in it. Prince Chu has been here before, and he is familiar with the roads and so on.
Mrs. Zeng was getting old and was not willing to leave. "You go, you two girls are gone. I can have some peace and quiet in the house for a while. Go quickly." He did not forget to say, "There are many people in Minjiang and it is complicated." , you should bring more guards with you and be more careful.”
"I got it, godmother. I heard that the dried pot fish in Minjiang City is particularly famous. I will bring it back to my godmother to eat."
Knowing that Mrs. Zeng loved to eat fish, Mrs. Zhuo asked her maid to bring a food box and prepare to pack the dry-pot fish back for Mrs. Zeng to eat.
The three members of the Chu family, plus Xia Zihan, disembarked from the boat under the watch of Mrs. Zeng.
Chu Jingqi didn't want to go for a walk with them. He just wanted to go for a walk alone, but Zhuo grabbed his ears and ordered him to play with Xia Zihan.
Children like to play with children, and Zhuo finally got a niece who was like her biological daughter. She really wanted her son and Xia Zihan to get along better.
Although Xia Zihan is not interested in his son, and his son does not look directly at Xia Zihan, the relationship between brother and sister is a natural one. If they play together more, the relationship between brother and sister will naturally emerge.
Zhuo did this not only for the sake of their brother-sister relationship.
Prince Chu's biological mother died when giving birth to him. Not long after, An Guogong married his stepmother, and she became pregnant one month after entering the house. She gave birth to a boy, which laid the foundation for the stepmother's influence in the Chu family. status.
The stepmother had a legitimate son, so she naturally disliked Prince Chu. He was only one or two years old, and he was treated badly by the stepmother.
Later, when An Guogong went to the border to fight, the stepmother treated Chu Shizi even more unscrupulously. At the age of four, he was also very naughty, so the stepmother made him kneel on the abacus all night, and his legs were almost intact. .
If Chu Shizi's maternal family hadn't taken him in for a few years after hearing the news, perhaps Chu Shizi would have disappeared long ago after An Guogong came back.
Later, Duke An Guo personally took Prince Chu by his side to educate him, so his stepmother no longer had the chance to persecute him.
However, after Prince Chu got married, the stepmother turned her attention to Mrs. Zhuo and found various excuses to cause trouble for her. In the end, Mrs. Zhuo got sick every three days. Prince Chu also often found excuses to take Mrs. Zhuo out for fun. Oh, no, it's a way to go out to seek medical treatment and avoid the stepmother.
The Zhuo family is not as reliable as her mother-in-law in the capital, and her stepmother has nothing to fear if she causes trouble for her. She has no place to speak out. Even if she speaks out, she might get bitten by her mother-in-law. After all, the Great Sheng Dynasty ruled the world with filial piety. .
Mother-in-law has a lot of criticisms about her daughter-in-law, that is, she is unfilial. No matter whether you are right or not, you will definitely be labeled as a bad daughter-in-law.
A daughter-in-law who is unfilial to her mother-in-law should be cut into pieces without pity.
Zhuo didn't dare.
Therefore, after Mrs. Zhuo accepted Mrs. Chu's relationship, she wanted her son to get along well with Xia Zihan. In the future, Chu Jingqi would also have a sister to take care of him.
Mrs. Zhuo has gone through a lot of hardships and put all her efforts into thinking about her son.
But Chu Jingqi's little face was tight. When Xia Zihan came closer to him, he immediately became as wary of her as a cat with fried fur.
After Xia Zihan found out, he felt angry and angry.
Why are you so afraid of me? Am I a dirty thing? Will I eat you again?
What does that expression on your face mean, as if you were seeing mosquitoes or flies?
Xia Zihan was furious in her heart, but she was smiling happily, "Brother Aqi, I heard that the sugar figures in Minjiang City are very realistic. Can you accompany me to buy some?"
Looking at him eagerly, his eyes were full of anticipation and excitement.
When Chu Jingqi wasn't paying attention, she grabbed the corner of his clothes with her little hands.
Huh, I want to run, but can I escape?
This girl has been on guard against this move of yours for a long time.
"I won't go." Chu Jingqi refused coldly.
As if Mrs. Zhuo didn't hear her son's words, she pinched her son's tender cheeks with a smile and said with a smile, "Aqi, go with your sister. Your father and I are waiting for you in the teahouse in front. There are many people here." , you have to protect your sister.”
Before her son jumped and went crazy, Mrs. Zhuo quickly pulled Prince Chu away.
Chu Jingqi glared at Xia Zihan, which was so angry.
However, Xia Zihan didn't pay attention to him at all. He grabbed one of his sleeves with a smile and said, "Brother Aqi, let's go quickly. There will be a queue soon because there are so many people."
Come on, Little Candy Man, why should you drag him along to buy such childish things?
Damn it, he really wanted to tear this damn girl's smile to pieces.
Chu Jingqi was reluctantly dragged by Xia Zihan to the candy man stall not far ahead, surrounded by several children, "Boss, bring me two candy men."
