Chapter 244 Strange Goods Can Live
"Is Mr. Zhao going back?"
The girl was a little disappointed, and a trace of redness that had not yet faded could be seen on her snow-white cheeks.
"Thank you for Miss Yuechan's tea. The fundraising matter is complicated. I have to rush back and plan and make good arrangements. I will come to visit you and Senior Jueweng in a few days!"
Zhao Qi bowed his hand solemnly, and with a hint of embarrassment, Ping'er rushed in and said, "Son-in-law," which made him completely unresponsive."
"Young Master Zhao, don't be polite. I want to say thank you. Yuechan thanks you. In order to alleviate your grandfather's predicament, you not only donated more than 100,000 yuan in wealth, but also raised donations everywhere regardless of your safety. These are things I can't do or think of. From now on... you can also call me Qing'er..." The girl lowered her head, her earlobes were red as if they were about to drip.
"Okay, Miss Qing'er, I'll leave first!"
"Young Master, wait, I...I have another unhappy request..."
"Miss Qing'er even said that, as long as I can do it, I will not refuse!" Zhao Qi stood up and looked at her with a warm face.
"I... I also want to contribute to the donation and take something to the charity sale. I wonder if it's OK?" The girl looked up, and her big watery eyes looked at Zhao Qi on her blushing cheeks, hoping to pray.
"Okay, why can't it be? This is to raise funds for Duke Chong and the frontline soldiers. If there is a girl Qing'er coming forward, I'm afraid the effect will be better!" Zhao Qi nodded with a smile, and suddenly remembered something and quickly lowered his voice, "Miss Qing'er, remember not to take out that fish tank!"
"Young Master, don't worry, you told me last time that I have been hiding in the bedroom and never showed anyone. I wanted to sell the guqin that Mr. Xijian gave me for sale for charity. Grandpa once said that when Mr. Xijian bought it, it cost more than 2,000 guan. If it could be sold, I could raise more military pay for my grandpa, so that I would feel more at ease!"
"Actually there is no need. Mr. Su's guqin is precious. It is not easy to buy it after selling it. If you attend a charity sale, you just need to get one that doesn't require much precious items, such as the poems, calligraphy and paintings left by Duke Chong!" Zhao Qi said a little unbearable.
"Grandpa has very few poems, calligraphy and paintings, and Qing'er doesn't have them either. Apart from the guqin, I only have some hairpins and jade pendants for girls, which is not good in public..." The girl held the hem of her skirt tightly with her hands, nervous and shy, and couldn't say anything.
"Okay, Miss Qing'er will make the decision by herself. At that time, I will try my best to arrange for this guqin to be auctioned last, hoping to sell it at a high price, which will not be in vain for Miss Qing'er's wishes!" Zhao Qi had no choice but to agree.
"Young master, Qing'er has one more thing..." The girl lowered her head and didn't dare to look at Zhao Qi's eyes.
Zhao Qi said with a giggle and laughter: "What else does Miss Qing'er have to do?"
"I... I don't have much to do at home every day except playing the piano and writing. There may be some things to prepare for at the young master's fundraising and charity sale. If you have any things to do in writing and painting, you can tell me, and I can also help do some!"
"Hey, Miss Qing'er reminded me that there is something you can do to help!" Zhao Qi nodded with his eyes, "I wonder if Miss Qing'er will sew and embroider except writing and drawing?"
"Can you..." The girl's voice was so low that she couldn't hear it.
"That's good. If we want to hold a charity sale in Yin County, we must have an auction booth. In order to make the charity sale fundraising event look more grand, I want to make a piece of exhibition cloth on it and embroider some words. Since Miss Qing'er is willing to help, I will entrust this matter to you!"
"I don't know how big the exhibition cloth of the young master is to be made, and what characters to embroider. Please give me a size and specification. I will definitely help you with it as soon as possible!" The girl asked excitedly.
"Size..." Zhao Qi pinched his chin and thought for a while, then looked around and saw a branch folded from the fence and squatted on the ground and drew a rectangle, then prepared to write on it.
"Young Master, I have paper and pen in my room. Otherwise, you can follow me to draw it with paper and pen, so that I won't make a mistake!" The girl's cheeks were bloody, her heart was beating, and she felt her voice trembling.
"Well, it's good, please ask Miss Qing'er to lead the way!" Zhao Qi, a big man, didn't care, and didn't notice it at all.
As a later generation, he was not familiar with the ancient rules of "Three Obediences and Four Virtues", "Not leaving the door and not leaving the door, and "Not talking to strangers". Even in Maowan Village, a group of girls were laughing and joking around like wild boys. The word "Lady" only exists in the novel. Although Wu Yuechan's expression made him a little uncomfortable, he didn't think too much. The main reason was that he was not used to the daily behavioral norms of girls in this kind of Neo-Confucian atmosphere.
Watching Zhao Qi follow Wu Yuechan upstairs, Wu Wenying, who was standing in front of the living room, showed a slight smile on her face, holding her beard.
He naturally knew the thought of this girl staying in Qingyuan Mansion.
Wu Qian's intention to entrust her to his care is naturally very obvious.
Zhao Qi has conquered Wu Qian with his magical attributes. As long as the two of them communicate in daily life, future events will naturally come naturally.
The orders of parents and the words of matchmakers may be ok for ordinary people.
But it may be a bit useless for Zhao Qi, because the situation in Zhao Qi's family is a bit special. This guy is obviously a very opinionated person, and he has no father or mother. If he wants to make him a grandson-in-law, Wu Qian thinks that relying on his own identity may not be effective, and it may even backfire. Once Zhao Qi disagrees with it under forced circumstances, this good relationship between the two may be greatly reduced.
In order to lose such a magical and capable person as a talented man, Wu Qian himself would give up his granddaughter without hesitation.
Therefore, if Zhao Qi is tied tightly with the Wu family, it is necessary to give birth to a beautiful and well-behaved granddaughter who can play all kinds of piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, and to hook up Zhao Qi.
It seems that this arrangement has some good signs. At least Wu Yuechan himself likes Zhao Qi very much, and Zhao Qi does not seem to reject Wu Yuechan at all.
Therefore, Wu Wenying, who helped to pimp, was naturally happy in her eyes.
If you can treat this red line as the old man in the moon, don’t say that Wu Qian will thank his eight generations of ancestors at that time, and he himself feels great honor.
The main reason is that Zhao Qi is so amazing that he is almost at a rare point. If he lets him go, he will definitely regret it for several lifetimes.
The boudoir on the second floor is not very large.
The log floor was shaking slightly, and the sand tent on the wide show bed gently blew in the wind passing through the window, and the bedding on the couch was neatly tidied up.
There is a transparent fish tank on the small table by the bedside. In the clear water, you can see a few shrimps and loaches swimming around inside.
A desk, a dressing table, a wardrobe, two wooden boxes, a clothes hanger, and then some simple daily household items.
There was also a quiet and elegant fragrance floating in the room, which smelled very nice.
Three little maids stood at the entrance to greet them.
Zhao Qi came in, glanced at it all with a glance, and then his eyes fell on several thin and short clothes hanging on the hanger on the bedside.
"Ah~" Wu Yuechan covered her mouth and whispered softly, and quickly made gestures to the little maid in green clothes. The little maid was clever and clever and hurriedly put away a few clothes and hid them in the wooden box.
Zhao Qi raised his lips and walked to the front of the desk and sat down carelessly. The girl's cheeks were red and she quickly prepared the pen, ink, paper and inkstone. After a lot of work, Zhao Qi sat down and picked up the brush, and quickly drew a graphic of the cloth on the paper, and marked it with numbers.
When Zhao Qi was painting, the girl stood beside her and looked carefully. The three little maids also squeezed behind Zhao Qi with excitement on their faces and stood on tiptoe and chattering.
After finishing drawing, Zhao Qi pointed to the figure and said with a smile: "Miss Qing'er, this dress is best made of red or bright yellow, two feet long and eight feet wide. Below the middle line, you should sew the sixteen big characters: "The rise and fall of the world is responsible for unity and defending the country. These characters can be drawn with white or black cloth and cut them off, and then sew them with needle and thread on the spread cloth. At the bottom, you need to write the words "Preparation Committee for the Qingyuan Prefecture Anti-Japanese War and National Saving Charity Sale, Yinxian Charity Sale Special"..."
Zhao Qi pointed to the drawings and explained carefully. Seeing Wu Yuechan nodding and confirming that he understood, he stood up and said, "I'm sorry for this exhibition. I'll disturb you today, so I'll say goodbye!"
"I'll take my son downstairs!" Wu Yuechan quickly sent him off.
Zhao Qi turned around but did not go out. Instead, he walked straight to the bed and walked up to the small fish tank, looked at it and said with a smile, "These shrimps and loaches are still raised, so I am really lucky!"
"Young master gave me away, Qing'er dared not give up easily. In fact, it's fun to raise this shrimp. I never knew that the shrimps were swimming backwards, and it was very fast..." Wu Yuechan stared at her bed nervously as she spoke, afraid that there would be any private clothing on the bed, which made Zhao Qi see the joke.
"Damn~" Zhao Qi gently flicked the fish tank and smiled and stood up straight and walked out. "This fish tank is too small. In the future, I will help you make a large glass fish tank, lay out rockery corals, aquarium and make a real aquarium, raise a group of colorful sea fish, so that you can see the sea every day without going out..."
You can see the sea at home!
Wu Yuechan was stunned.
She really couldn't imagine what the aquarium described by Zhao Qi was like.
"Sanniang, Mr. Zhao is gone!"
When he came to his senses at the reminder of the little maid, Wu Yuechan chased to the stairs and saw that Zhao Qi had already gone downstairs to the gate of the yard. He turned around and waved his hand with a smile before strode out.
