Chu Xuyuan and Chu Xuyao wore new clothes. Their faces were solemn as they bade farewell to the four elders. “Grandpa, Grandma, Dad, and Mom, we’re going to the school to study.”
Granny Chu was happy. “Good, good, good. You have to listen to the class seriously. This opportunity is hard to come by, understand?”
The two children nodded in unison. “Grandma, we understand.”
Granny Chu wiped the tears from the corners of her eyes. She didn’t expect that her descendants could go to school one day. “Alright, go quickly. Don’t run late.”
Chu Xuyuan clenched his small fists. “Grandma, we’ll study hard and bring glory to our family.”
Granny Chu patted her two grandsons on the head. “I believe you.”
“Let’s go.” Grandpa Chu waved at the two children. He and Chu Rong specially changed into new clothes and sent the children to school together to express how important they took this matter.
The four of them walked further and further away, gradually disappearing from the villagers’ envious gazes.
Many villagers thought to themselves that they had to work hard and send their children to study one day.
Only by studying could one be successful!
When Chu Qingzhi came to the stable, she immediately felt the horse’s warm welcome. Not only did it rub its head against her, but it also licked her hand.
Chu Qingzhi touched the horse’s head. “You have basically recovered. It’s time to help the family. If you agree to help, nod.”
The horse nodded very intelligently.
Chu Qingzhi opened the door of the stable and waved at the horse. “Then follow me.”
The horse followed Chu Qingzhi to the entrance of the courtyard. This scene attracted the attention of many people.
Chu Rong, who had outstanding carpentry skills, had specially built a cart to help his family transport goods. As long as the cart was tied to the horse, it could be used.
The horse stood in front of the cart and obediently let Chu Qingzhi put a rope on it. Its long tail swept gently, looking exceptionally elegant.
There was even a small braid on its tail. Chu Sixth had specially braided it for the horse and said that it would look even better with a braid.
Initially, the horse did not agree, but after hearing Chu Sixth’s words, not only did it agree, but it also liked it very much. It often wagged its tail, as if it was showing off.
Chu Xuhua carried the boxes to the cart. There were a total of three. One was for Shopkeeper Zhou, the other was for Xu Wanrong. She had ordered 1,000 pieces and planned to give them to the workers in the workshop in the afternoon to cool off. The other was for Sang Wanlu. It was also 1,000 pieces.
Chu Qingzhi handed the reins to Chu Xuhua. “Brother, remember to collect the money.”
Chu Xuhua was tall and handsome. He smiled when he heard that. “I’ll remember.”
Chu Third ran over. He would go to deliver the goods with Chu Xuhua. “Fifth Sister, we’re leaving.”
Chu Qingzhi walked to the side and made way. “Okay.”
As the brothers left, the busy day slowly began with the rising of the sun.
Wasteland.
An Shanwu and Nie Huiyang arrived a long time ago. They had almost finished measuring the land.
Chu Qingzhi brought them some water. “I’ll leave the water here for you. Come and drink it yourself if you’re thirsty.”
An Shanwu replied, “Sister Qingzhi, thank you.”
Chu Qingzhi put down the water and walked towards An Shanwu. “Brother An, when can we start building the house?”
As An Shanwu worked, he replied, “We’ll finish planning and then go to buy the necessary materials. Tomorrow morning at five o’clock, ask your family to come over with a hoe. After digging the ground with the hoe, we can start construction tomorrow.”
Chu Qingzhi nodded. “I understand.”
An Shanwu continued, “Sister Qingzhi, I’ll bring 20 people tomorrow. I need your family to prepare lunch. In addition, if we are short of people, I need you to find some people in the village to help.”
Chu Qingzhi agreed readily. “No problem.”
An Shanwu secretly praised Chu Qingzhi for being capable. This was the first time he had seen such a capable girl. “Then everything is good.”
“Okay.” Chu Qingzhi returned home and told Shen Ruyue about the matter, asking her to make the arrangements..
