Chapter 559: Hanging the Plaque

Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations

At the county town gate, several carriages were parked, with a little monk in grey clothes sitting on the shaft of one of them.

He fiddled with his beads, eyes wide open, staring intently ahead as if afraid to miss something.

Soon, a convoy approached, led by three men on horseback, each with their own distinctive charm, creating a beautiful scene on the street.

“Master, I’m going to find Miss Chu,” said the little monk, jumping off the carriage and running towards the convoy. His short legs moved swiftly, and the beads on his chest swayed rhythmically with each step.

The abbot watched the little monk’s departure with a gentle gaze.

Seeing the little monk approaching, Tang Jinghong raised his hand to halt the convoy.

The little monk bowed to Tang Jinghong, “Young Master Tang, where is AAiss Chu?”

Chu Qingzhi heard the little monk’s voice and opened the carriage curtain, “I’m here. Do you want to ride with us?”

The little monk’s eyes turned into crescents, and he hurried over to Chu Qingzhi, “Miss Chu!”

Chu Qingzhi stretched out her hand to the little monk. The little monk specially looked at Chu Qingzhi’s wrist and saw that Chu Qingzhi was still wearing the prayer beads that he had given her. Only then did the little fellow reach out to hold Chu Qingzhi’s hand and climb into the carriage. He sat beside Chu Qingzhi. “Miss Chu, thank you.”

“You’re welcome. Have you had breakfast?”

“Yes. Have you eaten?”

“Me too.”

The carriage also had Granny Chu, Li Qingyu, Chu Qingyue, and Chu Qingyan inside. Even with the addition of the little monk, there was still ample space.

After greeting everyone politely, the little monk quietly leaned against Chu Qingzhi without speaking further.

Chu Qingzhi gently patted the little monk’s bald head, understanding his attachment to her.

Losing his mother at a young age, he had never experienced maternal care, and her extra attention made him cling to her.

He was also a pitiful child.

Yuan Hongjun and others came to greet them. Chu Qingzhi didn’t interfere with their decision to accompany them to the capital for the free clinic. Just as Yuan Hongjun had said, the location of the free clinic was specified. Who said that they couldn’t set up a free clinic in the capital?

The group continued their journey to the capital.

In the capital.

In the capital.

After four hours, the convoy stopped in front of a refined mansion that Chu Qingzhi had asked Tang Jinghong to purchase.

Tang Jinghong dismounted, “We’re here. You can get off the carriages now.”

Hearing Tang Jinghong’s words, everyone got off the carriage one after another. After getting off, they stood on the spot and looked around.

Granny Chu tugged at Li Qingyu’s sleeve, feeling out of place, “The capital is so bustling, much more than the county town.”

Li Qingyu, experiencing the capital’s grandeur for the first time, was astounded, “Indeed, it’s the Emperor’s city, incomparable to a county town.”

Granny Chu nodded. “That’s right…” Having been in the capital, she had no regrets in this life.

Grandpa Chu and Chu Rong did not speak, but the emotions in their eyes had already expressed everything.

Chu Qingzhi said to everyone, “This is our residence in the capital. We’ll stay here for the time being.”

Ning Yuting waved to the housekeeper and a dozen servant girls and servants who were waiting at the side. “Come and serve.”

“Coming, Young Master.” The housekeeper led the servant girls and servants over hurriedly.

These people were carefully selected by Ning Yuting to take care of the Chu family. They had been arranged before he went to the Chu Village to pick up Chu Qingyue.

Everyone did not reject Ning Yuting’s good intentions. Chu Qingzhi handed the key to the housekeeper. “Please open the door and hang the plaque.”

Hanging the plaque signified that the house was occupied.

The housekeeper bowed slightly and took the key with both hands. “Yes, Fifth Miss.”

These people had already done their homework. Although they had never met, they already knew who was who.

The other servant girls and servants went to serve the others…

Xiao Yuan walked in front of Granny Chu and reached out her hand. “Old Madam, shall I help you into the residence?”

Granny Chu took a step to the side. Her body was still strong, so she didn’t need anyone to help her.

Xiao Yuan thought that Granny Chu didn’t like her and asked fearfully, “Old Madam, did 1 do something wrong?”

Granny Chu saw that the servant girl was afraid and felt a little apologetic. “No, no. I’m just not used to it. You don’t have to help me. Just lead the way for me.”

Xiao Yuan retracted her hand and bowed. “Yes, Old Madam.”

Granny Chu looked at the refined and polite little girl and was full of admiration. The capital was indeed the capital. Even the servant girl was so outstanding.

Everyone looked at Granny Chu’s reaction and smiled.

Grandpa Chu was very easygoing. He patted the servant’s shoulder and said, “I’ll tell you if you need help later.”

The servant nodded in agreement.

Li Qingyu and Chu Rong also had servant girls and servants serving them. Ning Yuting was very considerate and arranged for each of them to have a servant to take care of them.

The servant girl serving Chu Qingyue was one of the two servant girls in Ning Yuting’s courtyard. Both of them had a lover and did not have any extra thoughts about Ning Yuting. They only tried their best to take care of him.

“Greetings, Second Miss.”

On the way, Ning Yuting had already informed Chu Qingyue about this arrangement. Chu Qingyue nodded, “Xia Mei, sorry to trouble you during this period of time.”

Xia Meier smiled, “No need for formalities, Second Miss. Soon, we’ll be one family.”

“Yes.” Chu Qingyue glanced at Ning Yuting, who smiled at her.

After the housekeeper opened the door, he arranged for two servants to carry the plaque out. The plaque was very heavy, and it was very strenuous for the two of them to carry it.

Chu Qingzhi felt that they were too slow. She walked over and pulled off the cloth on the plaque. She grabbed the top of the plaque and lifted it up. The plaque flew up. She gently patted the bottom of the plaque, and the plaque flew up and hung steadily on the door.

The housekeeper, servant girls, and servants were all dumbfounded. They felt admiration in their hearts. At the same time, they understood that although their Eldest Young Master had married a girl from the village, it was definitely not ordinary. As a result, everyone could not help but respect Chu Qingyue more.

When passersby saw this scene, they could not help but praise Chu Qingzhi. That girl’s martial arts must have reached the peak. Otherwise, she would not have such incredible strength.

Chu Qingzhi clapped her hands. “Grandpa and Grandma can stay in the main courtyard, and Father and Mother can stay in the side courtyard. Everyone else can choose a room.”

The housekeeper and a group of servant girls and servants understood tacitly. They walked over to help carry the luggage and followed them into the house.

Tang Jinghong stopped everyone. “I’ll book a private room at Tainan Residence. Everyone, come for dinner tonight.”

Ning Yuting quickly said, “Brother Tang, can 1 book the restaurant?”

Tang Jinghong did not steal Ning Yuting’s thunder. “Sure.”

After everyone settled down, Tang Jinghong returned to his residence. Ning Yuting personally went to Tainan Residence to make the reservation.

Yuan Hongjun and others temporarily stored their free clinic materials at the Chu residence before heading home. They planned to gather again for dinner later..
