Chapter 174: Dizzy From Anger

Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations

Everyone discussed and was extremely curious about Chu Qingzhi.

Among these people, Wang Peifang was also there. She heard from the servants that Chu Qingzhi was going to go on a flower parade on the streets today. How could such a glorious thing happen to Chu Qingzhi? She did not believe it at all. Later on, she thought that it must be someone with the same name as Chu Qingzhi, but she still planned to come and take a look personally to dispel her doubts.

The servant girls at the side hoped that it was Chu Qingzhi. Back then when Chu Qingzhi was still around, she got along very well with the servant girls and treated them as her sisters, so they all hoped that Wang Peifang would be slapped in the face.

Under the unexpectant gazes of everyone, the carriage gradually arrived and stopped at the city gate.

The county magistrate, his secretary, and a group of constables were already waiting here. This was a big matter in the county city and no mistakes could be made. As the largest official in the county city, the county magistrate naturally had to take charge of the situation.

After the carriage stopped, the county magistrate walked over.

Tang Jinghong lifted the curtain and said softly, “Qingzhi, we’re here.”

Chu Qingzhi reached out and placed her hand in Tang Jinghong’s. On her wrist was a flower bracelet that Chu Eighth had made for her. It was decorated with daisies, making her hand look extremely delicate and beautiful.

Looking at the hand that had reached out from the carriage, everyone couldn’t help but picture Chu Qingzhi’s face.

Chu Qingzhi’s figure slowly moved out of the carriage and landed briskly on the ground. As people saw her come out, their eyes widened in disbelief.

“Isn’t this the girl who was confessed to in public on the Dragon Boat Festival that day?”

“Aiya, that’s right, that’s right. She looks even more beautiful than those rich young ladies.”

“By the way, the man holding his hand seems to be the same man who confessed. They look like a good match.”

The discussion became more and more intense. It was even livelier than the market.

Chu Qingzhi wanted to bow to the county magistrate, but before she could do it, she was stopped by the county magistrate. “Miss Chu, there’s no need for the formalities. Please get on the flower float.”

“Thank you, my lord.” With Tang Jinghong’s help, Chu Qingzhi got on the float.

The flower float was modified from a carriage with seats in the middle. The body of the carriage was decorated with flowers. Sitting in it was like sitting in a flower bush.

Tang Jinghong walked to the front and agilely got on the horse. He turned around and looked at the beautiful girl surrounded by flowers, his eyes shining.

Behind him were two soldiers who were also riding horses. The three of them cleared the way.

Then, there were four constables behind them.

Then, a float.

Lastly, there was the music team.

Tang Jinghong raised his hand and waved it. Then, he drove the horse forward. As soon as he moved, the entire procession followed suit.

As soon as the music sounded, people cheered.

The county magistrate got into a carriage and followed behind. There were also many carriages following behind the county magistrate’s carriage to participate in the parade. The commoners followed along, making the scene especially lively and spectacular.

However, this was nothing to boast about for Chu Qingzhi and did not interest her much. After watching for a while, her gaze landed on the tall figure at the front.

He was the most beautiful scenery on the way.

Chu Qingning walked arm in arm with Chu Qingyue and said with emotion, “Second Sister, Fifth Sister is really beautiful.”

Chu Qingyue smiled and said, “You’re also a beauty. If Fifth Sister is beautiful, you can’t be too bad-looking.”

Chu Qingning nodded and said, “Yes, I’m also very beautiful.”

Ning Yuting’s gaze landed on Chu Qingyue’s fair face and he thought to himself, You’re also very beautiful, gentle, and virtuous. That gentleness that comes from your nature makes people like you.

Yuan Hongjun and Bao Linjiang caught up with the float proudly. They wanted to protect their master.

Tong Yujie stood on a tree trunk, hugging his sword as usual, looking like a sword master. He looked at Chu Qingzhi and thought to himself, I really can’t bring myself to hurt such a beautiful girl.

“Be careful.” Chu Xuhua wrapped his arms around Shen Ruyue’s waist and protected her. She had almost tripped over just now.

When Shen Ruyue heard Chu Xuhua’s unique voice, her heart raced and her face slowly turned red. She quickly stepped away and quickened her pace, afraid that others would see her blush.

Chu Xuhua looked at Shen Ruyue’s back and smiled gently.

Chu Third looked at Chu Xuhua and smiled ambiguously. It seemed that it wouldn’t be long before he had a sister-in-law.

He then looked at Ning Yuting, wondering if he would become his brother-in-law. However, this might be a little difficult. After all, he was from a rich family in the capital.

As he thought about it, he followed the crowd, thinking to himself, Where is my girl?

Chu Xuyuan and Chu Xuyao specially applied for half a day off from school to join their fifth sister’s flower parade.

Chu Xuyuan shook his head. “I want to find a poem to describe Fifth Sister, but

I can’t.”

“If you can’t find it, use the word beautiful. This word is made for Fifth Sister.” Chu Xuyao glanced at Chu Xuyuan and ran forward.

Chu Xuyuan was speechless. It seems that I should study harder.

Wang Peifang looked at Chu Qingzhi on the float and was stunned on the spot for a long time.

That was Chu Qingzhi, the adoptive daughter she brought up.

When the servant girl beside her saw that it was Chu Qingzhi, she was very happy. It was indeed a good thing to be loved by one’s parents. Under her parents’ care, she had become so good-looking in just a few months.

Suddenly, Wang Peifang moved. She rushed over and grabbed Li Qingyu, who was filled with joy. “Is she Chu Qingzhi?”

Li Qingyu’s wrist hurt from being grabbed. She frowned. “Who are you?”

Li Qingyu had never seen Wang Peifang before, so she was scared. “Let go of me, let go!”

Wang Peifang did not let go. Instead, she grabbed her harder and pulled her to the side with a ferocious expression. “Tell me, is she Chu Qingzhi?”

Li Qingyu looked at the float that was getting further away. “She’s Qingzhi, my daughter. What exactly do you want?”

Wang Peifang asked indignantly, “Chu Qingzhi from the Chu village?”

Li Qingyu struggled to break free. For some reason, she didn’t like the woman in front of her. “Yes.”

Wang Peifang staggered back a step, looking stunned. “She’s Chu Qingzhi. How can she be Chu Qingzhi? You’re lying to me. You’re lying to me!”

Li Qingyu did not want to have anything to do with this crazy woman. She turned around and quickly walked away. She still had to see her daughter’s float. How could she have the time to waste with a crazy woman?

Wang Peifang looked at Li Qingyu’s back. No, all the glory should have been hers. She should be the one who was proud to have such an extraordinary daughter.

She shouted crazily in her heart, but she couldn’t make a sound. Her throat felt like it was blocked.

At first, the servant girl was quite happy, but when she saw Wang Peifang’s crazy look, she was a little afraid. “Madam, why don’t we go back?”

Wang Peifang turned to look at the servant girl. Suddenly, her vision darkened and she fainted.

The servant girl quickly helped her up. At this moment, the procession had already walked far away and no one noticed her.

Chu Qingzhi was wondering if Wang Peifang would faint from anger when she saw her adoptive daughter become so outstanding.

As expected, she fainted..
