Chapter 147 Who Is That Girl?
147 Who Is That Girl?
After Liu Chi recovered from his shock, he hurriedly picked up the five copper coins and chased after them. He took out the money bag from his pocket and carefully counted 35 copper coins before handing them to each child. He said with a fake smile, “Then I’ll have to trouble you all Young Masters and Misses.”
It would be embarra.s.sing if people found out that he couldn’t even bear to take out five coins for a child.
Especially at this moment, he had to make Lord Yang have a good impression of him.
If these children were to spout nonsense in front of Lord Yaard, it would not be just 40 copper coins.
!!
Liu Niu was so angry that he wanted to stop him. Liu Chi whispered in his ear that they were the children of Lord Yang’s relatives, so Liu Niu could only admit defeat.
The children each received five copper coins. Zhao Erwa waved her hand and said, “Come with us!”
His aura was even more imposing than the king of mountain.
Liu Chi even suspected that they had entered a bandit den and encountered a group of little bandits.
After following the little children for two steps, Liu Chi saw a group of people walking over from the front. Beside the fat old man in the middle was a young man in an official robe.
Liu Chi quickly realized that the young man must be Lord Yang.
Only Lord Yang could wear an official robe.
He immediately adjusted his expression and prepared to walk up to meet Lord Yang.
Before he could take a step, he saw Bai Wutong appear from another path around the corner.
In addition to the vicious dog, there was also a tall man holding a child.
Just his back view made him feel extremely intimidated.
Liu Chi stared at Bai Wutong. She looked so young, so she shouldn’t be married, let alone have children.
How could a woman who had given birth look like Bai Wutong?
Liu Chi forced himself to calm down. It should be just a coincidence.
The children saw Zhao Sheng in the crowd and ran over to greet happily. Zhao Erwa tugged at Zhao Sheng’s sleeve and glanced at Liu Chi. “Uncle Zhao, that person insisted on giving us five copper coins to lead the way to your house.”
When Liu Chi heard Liu Erwa’s words, he vomited blood in his heart. If you don’t know how to speak, don’t speak! It made it seem like he was forcing them to lead the way with copper coins.
Everyone looked at Liu Chi in unison, their eyes filled with disapproval.
Liu Chi: “…” Actually, he was the one who had the greatest disapproval.
Everyone only gave him a glance before their attention was attracted by Bai Wutong and Chu Tianbao.
Yang Gongbing asked Bai Wutong, “Where are Madam and Master going?”
Bai Wutong smiled and said, “I found a few hairy cherry trees and plan to pick some to make cherry sauce.”
Yang Gongbing had eaten the biscuits baked by Bai Wutong and knew that not only was Bai Wutong talented in other areas, her culinary skills were also very good. He immediately praised, “Madam’s cherry sauce must be very delicious.”
Bai Wutong’s smile deepened. “I also plan to make a few jars of cherry wine. I’ll give one to you someday.”
Yang Gongbing had never drunk cherry-flavored fruit wine. If it was made by Bai Wutong, it would definitely be better. He smiled and said, “Thank you for your kindness, Madam Bai. I’ll help you water it later.”
When Liu Chi, who was ignored, heard Yang Gongbing address Bai Wutong as Madam and his tone was rather respectful, he was petrified on the spot.
When he heard that Yang Gongbing was actually going to water the tree at Bai Wutong’s house personally, his entire person felt like splitting again.
He looked at the other people who were not surprised, and seemed to feel that it was only right.
After his shock, he looked at the man beside Bai Wutong.
Chu Tianbao turned around. His side profile stunned Liu Chi.
He felt that he himself was already considered handsome-looking. But compared to Chu Tianbao, he was like a manure pit on the ground looking up at Mount Everest.
How could he have the face to say that he was handsome-looking?
Liu Chi had only noticed Chu Tianbao’s face . When his gaze met Chu Tianbao’s deep eyes, the unseen killing intent from him seemed to have instantly transformed into a huge hand that was strangling his neck.
Liu Chi was so frightened that he quickly looked away.
He had clearly hid himself well and did not dare to look at Bai Wutong for too long. It should not be possible for him to be discovered.
Liu Chi was frightened by Chu Tianbao’s cold gaze. Bai Wutong had already left with Chu Tianbao, but he still did not dare to look up.
When he came back to his senses, the hateful little brat was still saying, “Hey, my Uncle Zhao has already left. Are you still going to Uncle Zhao’s house?”
A trace of ruthlessness flashed in Liu Chi’s eyes. In the end, he suppressed his anger and said, “Yes! Why not?!” Then he said to Liu Niu, who had just met the Lord and was a little at a loss, “Dad, Lord Yang has gone to the workshop. They will be taking attendance soon later. Hurry up and follow him. I’ll bring the gifts to pay a visit at the Zhao family.”
Since he was already here and had even spent 40 copper coins, he had to at least find out which family Lord Yang was related to and rope in the Zhao family so that they could take care of Liu Niu. If he could, it would be even better if he could introduce Liu Niu to Lord Yang.
From what he saw just now, Zhao Sheng seemed to be someone who could speak in front of Lord Yang.
Apart from that, Liu Chi was also very curious about the couple that even Lord Yang had been so respectful towards.
He secretly felt regretful. It was not easy for him to fancy a woman, but she was already married and had a child.
In his mind, he suddenly recalled Bai Wutong’s beautiful eyes looking at him. Liu Chi’s heart skipped a beat. If only she was willing to be his concubine.
Liu Chi followed the group of children for a while. Suddenly, the bell-like tone of a woman’s voice came from under the rose bushes. He subconsciously stopped and turned around.
Suddenly, his heart started beating violently again.
There was a group of women in front of the rose bushes. The beautiful woman in the middle was surrounded by everyone. She was dressed in a white dress and had a pink rose in her hand. She leaned her nose close and took a deep breath. She seemed just like a fairy.
Even the b.u.t.terflies were drawn to her and were dancing around her.
Her beauty was soul-stirring.
He blurted out automatically, “Who is that lady?”
Zhao Erwa followed his dazed eyes and saw Cui Lingyi. He smiled brightly and said, “It’s the fragrant Madam Cui!”
Liu Chi immediately came back to his senses and asked in disbelief, “Madam?”
...
The children behind Zhao Erwa nodded in unison. “That’s right, it’s Madam Cui!” Little Peach said in surprise, “I saw my mother. Madam Cui must be teaching my mother how to make fragrance. This way, I can also smell as fragrant as Madam Cui in the future.”
In that instant, Liu Chi heard his heart break.
The two women he had taken a fancy to were already married!
Even though he knew that Cui Lingyi was already married, Liu Chi still could not take his eyes off her.
Cui Lingyi sensed that someone was looking at her. She looked up and caught Liu Chi staring at her like a fool.
She frowned unhappily and moved swiftly to the other side of the rose bush.
The beautiful figure disappeared, whereas Liu Chi’s soul seemed to have been stolen away. When Zhao Erwa brought him to the entrance of Village Chief Zhao’s house, he was still looking distracted.
When Auntie Yang heard Little Peach shout that there was a guest, she quickly came out of the house. When she saw Liu Chi, she was stunned for a moment.
