At this moment, a man pushed through the crowd and came to Fan Jiayao. Fie looked at the blood under her with pain in his eyes.
“Flurry up and take her to the doctor. Perhaps the child can still be saved.”
“Yes, she just fell. Flurry up. Don’t just stand there.”
Fan Jiayao gripped her dress tightly, her forehead covered in sweat. “Husband, it hurts, it hurts…”
The man immediately carried Fan Jiayao and left.
Before Fan Jiayao left, she glanced at Chu Xuhua and Shen Ruyue, and a trace of crazy hatred flashed in her eyes.
Shen Ruyue was worried about Chu Xuhua and did not have time to care about Fan Jiayao for the time being. “Xuhua, wait for me here. I’ll go find Qingzhi.”
“Don’t go. Let Qingzhi spend more time with Jinghong. It won’t kill me to bear the pain a little longer.” The two of them were having a lovers’ time. He didn’t want to ruin it.
“Ruyue, can you help me home?”
Shen Ruyue hesitated. “Alright, let’s go back first.”
They returned to the Chu Village.
At the pitch-pot stall.
Chu Qingshuang tugged at Chu Eighth, who was engrossed in the game. “Eighth Sister, let’s go find Father and Mother, ok?”
Chu Eighth was reluctant to leave. The pitch-pot was too fun. “Sixth Sister, let me play another round.”
Chu Qingshuang doted on her sister and hesitated for a moment before agreeing. “Alright.”
Chu Eighth cheered. “Sixth Sister is the best.”
Li Shaoting, who was passing by, saw Chu Qingshuang and his eyes lit up. He quickly walked over. “Junior Sister, what a coincidence.”
Chu Qingshuang was also very happy to see Li Shaoting. She waved and greeted, “Third Brother.”
Li Shaoting was still a teenager. Fie was 15 or 16 years old and was very tall. He walked up to Chu Qingshuang. “Why aren’t you playing?”
Chu Qingshuang smiled and said, “I’m not very into playing the pitch-pot.”
Li Shaoting paused for a moment and mustered his courage to say, “Junior Sister, actually, I’ve been looking for you.”
Chu Qingshuang blinked. “Why are you looking for me?”
Li Shaoting handed a box to Chu Qingshuang. “This is for you for the Dragon Boat Festival. I hope you like it.”
Chu Qingshuang looked down at the exquisite box. “Isn’t this too expensive?”
Li Shaoting grabbed Chu Qingshuang’s hand and placed the gift box in her hand. “My junior sister is naturally worthy of the most expensive things.”
Chu Qingshuang lowered her head, and a hint of shyness flashed across her fair face. “Third Brother, thank you.”
Li Shaoting smiled. “You’re welcome.”
After the fireworks ended, Tang Jinghong flew to the shore with Chu Qingzhi. The two of them found a place with fewer people and rested for a while before walking out to stroll. Otherwise, they would be surrounded wherever they went.
Chu Qingzhi shook Tang Jinghong’s hand. “Jinghong, what do you like the most?”
Tang Jinghong said without thinking, “You!”
Chu Qingzhi smiled helplessly and said, “I’m asking you what things do you like?”
Tang Jinghong thought for a moment, then slowly said, “Other than you, I like my spear and bow the most.”
Chu Qingzhi suddenly stopped on her track. “Then 1’11 go to the military camp another day and help you modify your weapons.”
Tang Jinghong was pleasantly surprised. “You know about weapons?”
1 also know how to refine weapons… Chu Qingzhi nodded. “Kind of.”
Tang Jinghong’s tone was filled with anticipation. “When will you come?”
Chu Qingzhi bit her lip and thought about what would happen in the next few days. “I’m not sure, but I’ll tell you before 1 go.”
Tang Jinghong nodded. “Alright.”
At this moment, the two of them walked to the riverbank. Ripples appeared on the river surface, reflecting the bright full moon in the sky.
Suddenly, a white figure fell into the river about a meter away from Chu Qingzhi…
“All, Miss—” A servant girl screamed.
With Chu Qingzhi’s style of doing things, she would definitely save the falling figure.
Her body moved nimbly, bringing with it a cold wind. Then, she reached out and grabbed the falling figure, bringing her back to the shore.
The servant girl quickly came over. She was still in shock. “Miss, are you alright?”
The lady stroked her rapidly beating heart. “I’m fine.” Then, she turned to Chu Qingzhi. “I’m Tan Xueqing. Thank you for saving me.”
Chu Qingzhi sized up the girl in front of her. She was tall and thin, and her chest was flat. She was wearing a white dress with snow-white lotus flowers embroidered on it, exuding the aura of a young lady from a wealthy family.
Chu Qingzhi’s eyes narrowed slightly. This girl was not a simple girl. She was probably a transvestite. “It’s nothing. You’re welcome.”
Tan Xueqing asked politely, “May 1 know your name? So that I can send you gifts to express my gratitude.”
“Chu Qingzhi from the Chu Village.” Chu Qingzhi’s eyes were filled with curiosity. Why would any man disguise as a woman in ancient times? Wasn’t he afraid of being laughed at?
When Tan Xueqing met Chu Qingzhi’s gaze, she felt as if she had been seen through. She panicked and hurriedly avoided her gaze. “Miss Chu, I’ve been frightened today. I’ll take my leave and visit you another day.”
Chu Qingzhi smiled. “Miss, take care.”
After the girl left, Chu Qingzhi turned around to look at Tang Jinghong. She saw that he was deep in thought. “What are you thinking about?”
Tang Jinghong frowned slightly. “I think that girl is a little strange. Forget it, it’s none of our business. Let’s go.”
Chu Qingzhi leaned closer to Tang Jinghong and whispered, “That girl isn’t a girl.”
Tang Jinghong was stunned. “Qingzhi, what do you mean?”
Chu Qingzhi looked at Tang Jinghong’s shocked expression and could roughly guess what he was thinking. “It means what it literally means. Flaha.” With that, she walked forward.
Tang Jinghong looked at Chu Qingzhi’s back and sighed. Qingzhi was really omniscient!
The hustle and bustle in the county returned to normal as the crowd gradually dispersed.
Chu Qingzhi’s family returned home one after another.
Because Chu Eighth was playful, she and Chu Qingshuang were the last to return.
“Junior Sister, you live here?” Li Shaoting insisted on sending Chu Qingshuang and Chu Eighth to the entrance of the Chu Village.
“Yes, my house is over there not far away. Third Brother, thank you for sending me back.” Chu Qingshuang looked at Li Shaoting happily. Li Shaoting had always been very good to her, just like her family.
When Li Shaoting found out about where Chu Qingshuang lived, he felt that their relationship had progressed. He couldn’t help but be happy. “Junior Sister, come to the porcelain shop early tomorrow. I’ll bring you food.”
Chu Qingshuang nodded. “Ok, Third Brother.”
Li Shaoting’s eyes were smiling. “Flurry up and go home. I’m going back too. If I’m any later, my mother will nag at me.”
Chu Qingshuang smiled. “Okay.”
Then, she brought Chu Eighth back home.
Li Shaoting waved at Chu Qingshuang. After he couldn’t see Chu Qingshuang and Chu Eighth’s backs, he turned around and left..
