89 Moving

Li Qing excitedly moved his things from the shack to the new house.

Li Mei looked at Li Qing angrily. “I told you to stay at my house first, but you were unwilling. You insisted on waiting until your house was better before moving.”

Li Qing pulled Li Mei and whispered, “Aunt, my sister is waiting for my teacher to move in with her!”

Li Mei was jealous of Zhou Jia. “Hmph, girls will follow their husbands. They won’t be close to their aunt after getting married.”

Li Qing smiled at Li Mei’s sour expression. “Yes! I’ll tell her that Aunt is jealous later.”

Li Mei gently twisted Li Qing’s ear. “Little baddie, you actually want to tease your Aunt.”

Everyone came to help move the things into the house. They looked at the flowers and plants in Li Yu’s courtyard and the rosewood sofa and coffee table in the central room and clicked their tongues in admiration.

Madam Li touched the sofa and coffee table, thinking that it was designed by Zhou Jia. “Xiaoyu, Mr. Zhou is just different from us. Look at how generous these pieces of furniture are. It’s so comfortable to sit on them. I’ll get a set when I get paid.”

Chen Zhong’s wife, Madam Xu, and a few women smiled and asked Li Yu, “Xiaoyu, is Mr. Zhou’s workshop still recruiting? The few of us also want to go to your house to make bags.”

Li Yu nodded. “We still have to recruit people. Try asking my aunt tomorrow. If you think you can do it, go!”

Zhou Jia sat on the wooden sofa and thought of Li Yu’s dazed expression of nostalgia for the furniture upstairs. He was inexplicably worried.

Chen Baozhen quietly walked into the Zhou family’s house and handed an embroidery to Zhou Jia. She blushed and whispered, “Mr. Zhou, Baozhen congratulates you on your housewarming.”

“How did you get in? Get out.” Zhou Jia looked at Chen Baozhen in disgust and shouted. Seeing that Chen Baozhen was standing there and not leaving, he walked to the eaves with a livid expression and shouted, “Ruyi, how did you watch the house? You let someone barge in.”

When Ruyi heard Zhou Jia’s shout, he ran out of the room and saw Chen Baozhen standing in the central room with a flushed face.

Ruyi frowned and walked to the door of the central room. He said to Chen Baozhen, “Miss Chen, please go back!”

Chen Baozhen looked at Zhou Jia, who was standing in the courtyard, and said with red eyes, “Mr. Zhou, I just wanted to give you something to congratulate you on your housewarming. Do you have to be so unreasonable? Is it because Li Yu doesn’t allow you to accept my things?”

Zhou Jia didn’t even look at Chen Baozhen. He looked at Ruyi and scolded, “Why are you still standing here? Hurry up and drag her out. I still want my reputation.”

“Mr. Zhou, are you talking about me?” Chen Baozhen watched as Zhou Jia tossed the embroidery and ran out with her face covered.

Zhou Jia pointed at the embroidery on the ground in disgust. “Ruyi, take this back to Village Chief Chen. Tell him to control his girl.”

“Yes, Young Master.” Ruyi picked up the embroidery and walked out of the house. Just as he reached Li Yu’s house, he met Li Yu and Madam Li.

Madam Li looked at the embroidery in Ruyi’s hand and felt that it looked a little familiar. She felt that it seemed to be the painting of blooming flowers and riches embroidered by Chen Baozhen.

Li Yu looked at Ruyi and smiled. “Ruyi, where are you going with the embroidery?”

Ruyi had a bitter expression. “Miss Li, I’m going to the village chief’s house.” With that, he left in a hurry.

“Oh.” Li Yu felt a little strange when she heard that. She thought to herself, What’s wrong with Ruyi today?

Ruyi carried the embroidery to the village chief’s house and handed it to him. “Grandpa Chen, my young master asked me to tell you to control your girl.”

Ruyi’s heart ached as he looked at the village chief’s pale face. He bowed and walked out of the courtyard.

The village chief watched Ruyi leave the courtyard without a word. He turned around and walked into the house with the embroidery.

Madam Liu was sitting on the bed sewing one of the village chief’s coats. When she saw the village chief enter the house, she looked up. “Eh! Didn’t you say you were going to Ah Qing’s house to see the new furniture? Why are you back so quickly?”

With a whoosh, the village chief threw the embroidery in front of Madam Liu and pointed at her chest, unable to speak. Madam Liu was so frightened that she hurriedly got off the bed and rubbed the village chief’s chest. “Old man, what’s wrong?”

After a while, the village chief caught his breath and slapped Madam Liu’s face. “What did I tell you last time?” he said angrily. “I told you to discipline Baozhen and not let her embarrass the Old Chen family.” The village chief picked up the embroidery. “Look, what is this? It was sent to me with a message to discipline the girl. Where do you want me to put my face?”

Madam Liu looked at the embroidery in the village chief’s hand and gritted her teeth. She had asked her not to give it to him but she had done it secretly. Sinful! She must have been bewitched.

“Baozhen’s father, our daughter just wants to congratulate Mr. Zhou on his housewarming. She doesn’t have any other intentions. Everyone lives in the same village. Isn’t he making a fuss over nothing?!”

The village chief looked at Madam Liu in disappointment. “Aren’t you shameless? Why didn’t she give it to Xiaoyu’s family or her two brothers?” The village chief pushed Madam Liu out of the house. “Go and find her.”

Chen Baozhen ran out of Zhou Jia’s house and went to the mountain stream. She picked up a stone and threw it into the stream. She kept cursing, “Li Yu, you bitch. Damn it, it’s just a gift. Do you have to boss over such a small thing? If you have the ability, boss over him for the rest of your life.”

“Miss, I want to ask you about someone.” Suddenly, a male voice sounded. Chen Baozhen was shocked. She turned around and saw a young man standing not far from her.

Chen Baozhen looked at the man defensively and said, “Who are you asking about?”

Ye Lianggong pointed at the straw shed not far away. “I’m looking for a woman who knows martial arts and often goes up the mountain to hunt. She lives in this straw shed in front.”

Chen Baozhen shouted in disgust, “Who are you? Why are you looking for her?”

Seeing Chen Baozhen’s disgusted expression, Ye Lianggong thought to himself, Could it be that this woman has a grudge against that bitch? He would test her first.

“I’m Liang Gong. I live in Phoenix Town. I asked about that girl because I offended her on the mountain and wanted to apologize to her.”

Chen Baozhen threw the stone in her hand into the water. “So what if you offended that bitch? She’s not some rich girl that you can’t offend.”

Ye Lianggong took two steps closer and looked at Chen Baozhen with a smile. “Miss, you have a grudge against her, right?”

Chen Baozhen glanced at Ye Lianggong angrily. “What does it have to do with you?” With that, she turned around and left.

Ye Lianggong stopped her and said bewitchingly, “Miss, I have a vendetta against her too. Previously, she broke my wrist when we were on the mountain. If you have a grudge against her, we can join forces to deal with her.”

Chen Baozhen was a little tempted when she heard that, but she was also a little afraid of Li Yu’s martial strength. She stood there hesitating.

Madam Liu found Chen Baozhen and saw her standing with a young man near a stream. She hurriedly ran over and grabbed Chen Baozhen. “Follow me home.”

Seeing that the mother and daughter were leaving, Ye Lianggong shouted from behind, “I’ll come back at this hour in two days. If you’re willing, come and find me here.”

“Where did this messy person come from? Ignore him.” Madam Liu glared at Ye Lianggong and pulled Chen Baozhen back while complaining, “You evil creature, I told you not to send him the embroidery, but you insisted on doing it. Now that he’s returned it and asked your father to discipline you, how can we raise our heads in the Chen family in the future?! Are you only happy if you anger me to death? What exactly do you want? Have you been bewitched?”

Chen Baozhen bit her lip and followed Madam Liu without a word. The words of the man called Ye Lianggong echoed in her ears as she started to think about what to do.
