Chapter 878
"If you have anything to say, come inside and talk." Chu Jingqi nodded to him, hugged Xia Zihan and walked through the door.
Zheng Wenting came because he received a letter from Xia Zihan. He didn't know whether what she said in the letter was true. He came here specifically to ask and visit Xia Zihan.
However, unfortunately, when he arrived, Xia Zihan and his group had already gone to pay homage to Mr. Chu Ge.
Zheng Wenting didn't leave either, just waiting here.
A few people sat down, and Zheng Wenting didn't hesitate. He opened the skylight and spoke frankly, asking Xia Zihan, "Is what you said in the letter true?"
Xia Zihan took out the handkerchief, pressed his uncomfortable eyelids, sniffed, and said, "Do you think I'm joking, or that I would joke about such a big thing with you?"
Won't.
So, is this true?
Zheng Wenting was shocked.
Then, he realized, "No wonder, a few days ago, I heard that several of your shops in Yi'an City had great sales, and then they closed the shops in the past two days."
"When will it start?" Zheng Wenting asked her.
"How can you calculate the specific time so accurately?" Xia Zihan deliberately did not give him a specific time.
Qin Tianjian is just an official who measures the weather, not a god. How can he calculate the specific time? If he can, then he is a god, not Qin Tianjian.
"You just need to prepare early, but don't let this matter be exposed. The court doesn't want to cause panic among the people." Xia Zihan told Zheng Wenting.
"Don't worry, I have burned that letter." Zheng Wenting said.
He has been traveling around for more than ten years, and he knows the importance of some things, especially those related to the court, so they will be cautious and careful.
Zheng Wenting wanted to set off back to Beijing with Xia Zihan, but Chu Jingqi looked disgusted and frowned and said, "We will leave in three days. Instead of taking the waterway, we will go around Yifeng Town in Wan'an City. Mr. Zheng will be in charge in three days." I’m afraid I can’t leave yet?”
"Three days, it's a bit tight, but..."
"Then let's leave first. Mr. Zheng can leave on any day he likes." Chu Jingqi interrupted what he was saying.
Even if Zheng Wenting was a fool, he could see at this time that Chu Jingqi didn't like him going with them.
He couldn't afford to offend Chu Jingqi.
Zheng Wenting hurriedly changed his words, "Then I wish you a safe journey, but this Yi'an City is my home. Since you are here, I will be the host and invite you to get together at Juewei Restaurant. How about it?"
"No, we appreciate Mr. Zheng's kindness. However, Ayu has not been feeling well these days and wants to rest for a few days before setting off." Before Xia Zihan agreed, Chu Jingqi refused.
Xia Zihan was so angry.
This bastard started having convulsions again. She was her friend and wanted to treat them as landlords by inviting them to dinner. This was polite and etiquette, but he refused without saying a word.
It really pissed her off.
Chu Jingqi didn't care about etiquette or etiquette. Anyway, he just didn't like that his Ayu had close contact with this person named Zheng.
Hum, if you want to pry into his corner, there is no door. After Chu Jingqi rejected Zheng Wenting's invitation, he felt happy in his heart. He picked up the tea and asked Chuan Qiong to see the guests off.
As soon as Zheng Wenting left, Chu Jingqi picked up Xia Zihan and walked to the yard where they lived.
"Aqi, Mr. Zheng is a very worthy friend. Don't target him next time." Xia Zihan patted his arm holding her and signaled him to put her down and she would leave on her own.
Chu Jingqi tightened her hands and did not let go of her. She also snorted with an unhappy face, "He covets my wife, and I still want to smile at him. Where does the logic come from?"
"I didn't ask you to smile at him, just treat him politely." This bastard, like a calf, got into trouble again, "Besides, how could you ever see someone coveting me? , you can’t talk nonsense, he is already married to a wife, if you talk nonsense again, I won’t be polite to you.”
He was not talking nonsense. The boy stared at his Ayu like a hungry wolf that had been hungry for several days. It showed that his heart was impure.
Chu Jingqi curled his lips. He could think about this in his mind, but he didn't dare not say it out loud. Otherwise, his Ayu would be really angry.
Chu Jingqi put her on the bed and said with a distressed look on her face, "You cried for a long time this morning, and your voice is almost hoarse from crying. You should rest for a while, and I'll tell the maid to cook a bowl of rock sugar snow pear to moisten your throat."
< br>
"Just squeeze some fresh pear water for me to drink." Xia Zihan struggled to get up, but was held down by Chu Jingqi and lay down again.
"Be good, lie down, I'm here."
Chu Jingqi took a thin blanket and put it around her waist, then called Chu Cong in and told her to squeeze a glass of fresh pear water.
There were ready-made pears at home, and Chu Cong moved quickly. Soon, a glass of pear water was brought.
Xia Zihan's burning throat felt better after drinking pear water. Chu Jingqi leaned over and kissed her on the forehead, saying, "Good boy, close your eyes and rest for a while. You didn't sleep all night last night." If you sleep well, you already have dark circles. As for other things, don’t worry about it. Just worry about everything for your husband.”
Xia Zihan nodded obediently. He just closed his eyes, opened them again, and said, "Aqi, remember to ask Chu Kui to pack all the items in grandma's room into separate boxes. When the time comes, send them directly to the Chu family."
"Yes, I know." Chu Jingqi sat down on the edge of the bed, patting her shoulders again and again like patting a child, making her gradually fall asleep.
In three days, Chu Kuang and Chu Lin commanded a group of maids, wives, servants, and servants to pack up everything in the Chu family's ancestral house except for some furniture, and loaded it into twenty carriages.
Because there were too many vehicles and people, they got up early on the day of departure. As soon as the city gate opened, the convoy left the city without disturbing anyone.
Zheng Wenting also planned to come to the city gate to see them off. Who would have thought that he came to the city gate and waited at the city gate until the sun came out, but he still hadn't seen them.
As a result, he sent a servant to check Chu's house, but he saw a locked and empty house.
……
Xia Zihan was still sleepy and yawned. She squinted her eyes and slept in Chu Jingqi's arms on the carriage. She didn't know that Zheng Wenting was waiting at the city gate to see her off for more than two hours.
Chu Jingqi's eyes were clear, and he patted her back again and again, as if coaxing a baby to sleep, making Xia Zihan feel very comfortable. Not long after getting on the carriage, she fell asleep again.
It wasn't until they arrived at the next town and the motorcade stopped to rest that she was woken up by Chu Jingqi, "Ayu, wake up, it's time to have lunch."
"Don't be too snoozy in the carriage. You'll have a headache and be bored soon. Come on, get up and let me help you wash up." Chu Jingqi pinched the cheeks of the sleepy Xia Zihan and said with a doting look on her face.
