Chapter 191 191. New house built

  Old Master Chu was not reconciled, and said forcefully, "Qingzhi, you have had fifteen years of father-son love, you should think of a way."

  Yeah, fifteen years is quite a long and short number, but for Xiao Qingzhi, it will always stay at fifteen years old.

  Chu Qingzhi's face was indifferent, "I'm sorry, I'm only fifteen years old, and I don't know much, so I can't see his strange disease."

  Master Chu's eyes turned red, his spirit sank, he seemed to be getting older, his back was slightly bent, "Why don't you try it, and help him relieve the pain."

  Chu Qingzhi shook her head, "There is nothing I can do."

  Old Madam Chu roared, "Don't ask her, ungrateful wild girl, I should have known that I shouldn't have brought her back in the first place."

  Old Master Chu looked at Chu Qingzhi disappointedly, then staggered towards the carriage.

  Chuning's family left Chujia Village.

  Chu Qingzhi stared at the receding carriage, pursed her lips, and probably won't come again in the future.

  …

  Nie Huiyang approached Chu Qingzhi with a warm smile, "Miss Chu, the house is finished, check it out."

  He has been working here for more than three months, and he has realized that the real master of this family is the fifteen-year-old girl in front of him, so he came to her directly.

  Chu Qingzhi's eyes were smiling, "Thank you, Brother Nie, let's go and see."

  She turned her head and shouted to her family, "Father and mother, the house has been built, go and have a look."

  Li Qingyu's voice came out in surprise, "Come, come..."

  The other Chu family members who were at home also came out, and then went to the new house with Nie Huiyang. Everyone looked expectant and happy.

   From the old house to the new house, it takes more than a hundred steps to arrive.

Chu Qingzhi stood in front of the new house and looked at it with satisfaction. The house is a small two-story western-style building with an ancient style. Although it is modeled on a modern house, many places have been modified. In addition, the tiles and wood used do not look modern. , but full of ancient style, very delicate and beautiful.

   "Father and mother, let's go in and have a look."

  Chu Qingzhi walked in first, and it was a traditional main room, a standard rectangular room, very spacious and bright.

  There are two doors on the left, which are two rooms. The one in front is the room of Li Qingyu and Chu Rong, and the one behind is the room of Grandpa Chu and Grandma Chu.

  There is a door on the right, which is the dining room. There are two doors at the back and the right of this room. The door at the back is the warehouse, where food and other things are piled up, and the door on the right is the door of the kitchen.

  Enter the kitchen, the kitchen is also very spacious and bright, with windows and a door at the back, and the hut is inside.

   On the second floor, go up from the dining room. After going up, there are no people living directly above the main room. It is a living room. There are six doors in the living room, which are six rooms.

  A room between Chu Xuhua and Chu Xujin, a room between Chu Qingyue and Chu Qingning, a room between Chu Qingshuang and Chu Qingyan, a room between Chu Xuyuan and Chu Xuyao, a room between Shen Ruyue, and a room.

   It is impossible to allocate one room to each person, but Chu Xuhua and Chu Xujin will build their own houses immediately, and they will be vacant at that time.

  There is a balcony outside, go to the left along the balcony, that is, there is a large room above the kitchen.

   This room was specially reserved by Chu Qingzhi for herself. It has a rectangular layout, about forty square meters, with two windows open, and the lighting is excellent.

  Chu Qingzhi plans to use the house for dual purposes, with a bed and a wardrobe at the back, and a simple study with the windows in the front. She often needs to write and draw, which is more convenient.

   After seeing the house, Chu Qingzhi was very satisfied.

  Come down from upstairs, "Brother Nie, you are good at building houses. Next, my elder brother and third brother will also build houses, so I will trouble you."

  Nie Huiyang quickly smiled and agreed, "Leave it on us."

  The other party worked hard to build the house, Chu Qingzhi was very happy, and when he was happy, he was more straightforward, "Brother Nie, please move to the old house, let's settle the accounts."

  Nie Huiyang's smile deepened, "Okay."

   There is a separate account for building a house. Chu Qingzhi took out the account book and turned to the account page of the house. She had already written five pages.

  The two of them calculated one by one, and finally calculated that the total cost of building the house was eight hundred and twenty taels.

  Nie Huiyang negotiated the price with the boss in many places, and even offered a lot of discounts, saving Chu Qingzhi a lot of money.

  Without the help of Nie Huiyang, Chu Qingzhi would have spent at least an extra fifty taels of silver.

  Of course, Nie Huiyang got more benefits. In addition to Tang Jinghong's house under construction, there are two more houses to be built next, so he doesn't have to worry about running out of business for the next year.

   "Brother Nie, thank you for the house."

   "Should be."

  Chu Qingzhi took the broom and went to clean the new house with her family. After cleaning, some things that can be moved in can be moved in slowly.

  After three months of hard work, Chu Rong, except for a large table and matching chairs, and three pieces of beds, has not made other furniture. He really cannot do so much by himself.

  So Chu Qingzhi planned to go to the county town to buy furniture, so she bought the leftover beds, wardrobes and other big items, and for the small ones, Chu Rong would pack them slowly, so there was no rush.

  The house was cleaned, Chu Rong and the others went to move the furniture, and Chu Qingzhi went to the county seat.

  …

  However, when I came to the county seat, I encountered a bad thing.

   Shopkeeper Qian rushed towards Chu Qingzhi in a hurry, "Oh, Miss Chu, I was going to find you."

  The other party's expression was not very good. Chu Qingzhi asked quickly, "Treasurer Qian, what happened?"

   Shopkeeper Qian was a little dissatisfied with Chu Qingzhi, "There is something wrong with your zongzi."

   "What's wrong with the zongzi? What's the problem?" Chu Qingzhi's intuition was wrong. Her family's zongzi had no mistakes in every process from raw materials to production. How could there be a problem?

   "Miss Chu, come and take a look with me." Shopkeeper Qian hurriedly took Chu Qingzhi to Hongyan Restaurant.

  As soon as he returned to the restaurant, Shopkeeper Qian immediately put the zongzi he was going to show Chu Qingzhi on the table, and pushed aside the zongzi leaves outside, "Miss Chu, look."

   A total of three zongzi were removed. First of all, the color of the zongzi was wrong. Chu Qingzhi picked up one and took a bite. After chewing twice, she immediately vomited. Why did it have a musty smell? Still so salty?

   "Treasurer Qian, where did this zongzi come from?" Chu Qingzhi was sure that there was something wrong with the zongzi, and it didn't belong to her family.

  Treasurer Qian waved to five or six people sitting in the corner of the lobby, "Come here!"

  These are all women, some young, some middle-aged, dressed above average, they should be people from the county town.

  A thin and tall woman came over and said angrily, "We like eating zongzi very much, and we buy them almost every day, but today I don't know what happened, the taste of zongzi has changed."

  Chu Qingzhi asked patiently, "Excuse me, did you buy it in this restaurant?"

  The woman was full of confidence, "Of course it is, otherwise why would we take it here to retreat."

  This woman didn't lie, so the problem must be in the restaurant, Chu Qingzhi thought for a moment, "Shopkeeper, you ask the shopkeeper to go to the county government to find someone named Chu Xujin, and ask him to investigate." This is also an opportunity.
