Chapter 36 Little Housekeeper
Back in Wushu Village, Chu Qing's carriage caused a sensation among the villagers. The carriage was not comparable to the ox-carts in the village, nor was it comparable to the carriages rented in the city. At first glance, it would have to be a big landowner's family to afford it.
carriage.
Seeing that the driver was Zhang Mingyu, he drove all the way to the school, and many people followed him to watch the fun. When they arrived at the school, they saw Chu Qing and Xiaobao coming down, and Zhang Mingyu moved a lot of things out of the carriage in the village.
Sent to Chu Qing's utility room. The villagers became more curious and gathered around Zhang Mingyu to ask.
Zhang Mingyu simply raised his voice and said: "You don't know, right? The bandits last time were all Dong Lun's agents. When they saw that they were all sent to the state government, they simply waited to die and refused to confess. The Yamen master invited
Madam Yuan’s help allowed these agents to confess so quickly. I heard that the confession yielded a lot of information! Madam Yuan has done a great service! These were all rewarded to Madam Yuan by the Yamen."
Comrade Xiao Zhang is good at this, but if he has the vision, Chu Qing doesn't even need to think of excuses, Zhang Mingyu can handle it.
Brother Zhuizi and the others did not follow. Halfway through, they followed the route drawn by Zhang Mingyu and went directly to the Orion shack at the foot of the mountain. They thought the carriage was slow and had to rush to Bai Hua to hand over the task.
Chu Qing felt relieved after he came back. Look, the additional force from the Secret Investigation Department has arrived, and the Commander-in-Chief has also been rescued. He has nothing to do, which is quite a relief!
Chu Qing and Xiaobao closed the door and packed up the things they had brought back. There was a small package given by the maid next to Mrs. Hong. This girl thought in her heart that Chu Qing not only saved her master's life, but also saved her own.
Life.
Because Chu Qing not only pulled his wife to run away that day, but also pulled him to run away. Otherwise, he might have died like the two girls who tried to close the window.
So she wanted to express her gratitude to Chu Qing. She was just a maid and had no chance to repay Chu Qing. Knowing that Chu Qing had a three-year-old child, she bought some children's toys and wrapped them in a package.
Make it clear.
Open the package and look, what a guy! A small sachet, a small clay figurine, a rattle, a nine-link ring, a Luban lock, a monkey mask, and some snacks that are easy to store... You can see them on the street, almost all of them are inside. You have the heart.
The girl.
Chu Qing saw that there was a piece of dark brown brocade material inside, which was enough to make Xiaobao's clothes, and a roll of hemming cloth for clothes. It seemed that the girl bought the material originally to make Xiaobao's clothes.
Of clothes.
Chu Qing was very happy. He held up the wrapping strip and said to Xiaobao, "Look, look, this one matches your pocket. I will use this to make you a handsome belt." He pointed to the pile again.
The gift said: "I want to make a belt, you can keep these." Then he grabbed the scissors and looked for needle and thread, and really didn't care.
Chu Qing first found the most unsightly one among Xiaobao's "hundreds of clothes" and cut it into strips of cloth. He folded it carefully and put the old cloth on the soles of his shoes.
The strips were sewn firmly, and then wrapped in the beautiful binding cloth strips and sewn securely, so that a beautiful belt came out. I also found copper coins, used the binding cloth to sew the bag tightly to make buttons, and then tied the belt
Open one end of the bag and lock the buttonhole. Next, connect the belt and purse.
Chu Qing was doing needlework here, and Xiao Bao was packing things. Chu Qing chatted with Xiao Bao while sewing: "After my son Meng Dao was born, I don't know how to be rare. Every day.
I was thinking about doing something for him. After Meng was half a year old and no longer had to hang on me to breastfeed, I was thinking about making him a pair of tiger-head shoes. I heard from the old people downstairs that people in Shandong Province
It is popular for children to wear tiger-head shoes, wear tiger-head hats, and sleep on tiger pillows when they are one year old. It is said that this way the child can stand firmly and grow strong."
Xiaobao stopped and looked at Chu Qing. Chu Qing had been immersed in sewing the belt and didn't pay attention. He continued to talk: "I searched online and asked the old man how to do it. After practicing for a long time, I made the first pair of test products.
.Isn’t this an experience?” Chu Qing fell into memories and smiled: “On my son’s first birthday, I finally made a pair of red tiger-head shoes, which are so beautiful. You don’t even know that the soles of the shoes are broken.
There were a few needles, but I didn’t even know how to use an awl! My fingers were always covered with needle holes. While I was putting on the tiger-head shoes that I had made so painstakingly for my son, I kept saying to him, “He will definitely grow strong and stand tall.”
Stay safe!'"
Xiaobao sniffed and continued to pack. When Chu Qing finished finishing the pocket bag, he saw that the gifts were still on the ground, but Xiaobao had freed up a lot of space on the modified shelves. There were some in the empty space.
There was a writing brush, some a book, and some a spool of thread from Chu Qing's sewing box.
Chu Qing was stunned for a while before he realized: these gifts are too heavy. The fine cotton cloth comes in whole pieces, and it is too tiring to carry the books, pens, ink, paper and inkstones one by one, and the paper is made into knives. These little treasures
I can’t even pack it away! But Xiaobao arranged several shelves on the shelves. The place where the spools are placed is for Chu Qing to put cloth; the place where pens are placed is for stationery; and the place where books are placed takes up two spaces.
, it seems to be used to store books and papers.
Chu Qing was very happy, this little kid is so smart! Pick the jobs that you can do, and design the locations for the ones that can't be done. "Okay! Just put things in the places you planned." Chu Qing said. Three times five divided by two
, everything is placed, and when you look at it again, it’s really neat!
"You are much better than my son! My son is 12 years old and he can't even clean his own room." Chu Qing said sincerely.
Xiaobao packed the two people's clothes into the exquisite empty gift box, closed the lid, and pointed under the bed. Chu Qing pushed the box under the bed. Well, not bad.
The house is neat again!
"Have you put away the banknotes? I have no place to keep them. You have to take better care of the money at home in the future." Chu Qing added. Xiaobao is so precocious and smart, and Chu Qing doesn't want to waste this intelligence.
Besides, Meng Dong has never let him think about it since he was a child, so he always seems not to care about anything. This is wrong, Xiaobao should change it. Alas, Meng Dong, where are you now? You are still angry with your mother.
No?
Chu Qing thought that Xiaobao would let him drag the box out to hide the banknotes again, but he didn't. Xiaobao took out all the bamboo pens in his pocket, leaving only the smallest one inside. Then he picked out these pens.
The thickest one can fit a roll of banknotes into it. Then this bamboo tube pen is put together with the brushes on the shelf.
Chu Qing was dumbfounded. It was true that it was not safe anywhere. On the surface, it would not attract anyone's attention.
He opened the small bag he had brought back. Inside was the medicine given by the doctor of the Song Dynasty. There were powders to stop bleeding, ointments to remove blood stasis, and some bandages. The medicines he drank were all for replenishing blood and reducing fever. He put them on the bed board.
As soon as I put it down, there was another small pile.
Chu Qing took a fancy to the white-glazed medicinal powder bottle. It was two inches high and one inch thick, like a small pickle jar, and the lid was quite tight. Chu Qing found a piece of paper, poured out the hemostatic powder inside, and wrapped it into
Put the paper bag aside. Wash the bottle, and roll the remaining tattered coarse cloth into a tight roll and stuff it inside. Then grind the ink, and pour the ink into the bottle, so that the coarse cloth inside is soaked without dripping.
.
Xiaobao poked the inside of the medicine bottle with a bamboo pen and wrote on the paper. No problem! This method is really good. Chu Qing closed the lid of the medicine bottle and handed it to Xiaobao: "Unexpected bonus, the ink bottle is done!" Chu Qing
Qing made another pen cap for Xiaobao, and now he is no longer afraid of piercing his pocket. Work together!
Orion shack
Bai Hua wrote a secret letter. The letter reported in detail the process of rescuing Lord General, especially Chu Qing's role in it. At the same time, it also attached an investigation report on Chu Qing's identity. It also explained the situation in the border town.
Only he and Zhang Mingyu were left in the intelligence team, plus Chu Qing, a hired non-staff member, and Wu Dalang was not mentioned. For Bai Hua, Wu Dalang was just a personal friend who knew the yamen where he worked, and nothing else was known.
This letter was completed after listening to the summaries of Zhang Mingyu and Brother Zhuizi, so now Bai Hua hands it to Brother Zhuizi for review. Brother Zhuizi is a hundred households, while Bai Hua is a trial hundred households, and they belong to different departments, but they
He is a senior official. Brother Zhuizi has read the secret letter carefully and has no objections. He even has no objections to the suggestion in the letter that Chu Qing should be formally employed.
Chapter completed!
