"It doesn't matter, it doesn't matter!" Deputy Jiang Qianhu said with a smile: "What our Secret Investigation Department does is not safer than the soldiers on the front line, and may be even more dangerous. If we can't even protect our own family and children, how can we be justified?

!”

Chu Qing was relieved. This matter had been reported to the leader and there would be no major impact.

Chu Qing reached out to touch the wine jug. Chu Yuan quickly took it into his hand and refilled Mr. Jiang's wine. Although the boss was his subordinate and should pour wine for Shangguan, he was a woman after all, so it was better to be more careful.

Chu Qing didn't expect this. He was the owner of the restaurant, so it was nothing to entertain him.

Deputy Jiang Qianhu sat down for a while and then left, so that everyone would not be able to let go of his presence. Chu Qing quickly got up and sent him downstairs, but Deputy Qianhu did not refuse. It seemed that he had something to say.

When Chu Qing passed the counter downstairs, she specifically asked to bring two red jars of corn roast. She saw that Mr. Jiang liked to drink alcohol with high alcohol content.

Master Jiang was very happy, took the wine and asked: "Is this made of corn?"

"Yes, corn grown in our own land."

"This wine is good, fragrant and strong! The last time I went to Kyoto, Mr. Hu and I drank 'Jiangnan Green' at Mr. Fu Shiwu's house in Beizhen. It was a tribute wine, and it tasted good, but it was too sweet."

"You are so lucky to be able to drink the tribute wine." Chu Qing didn't know the meaning of his words.

"Haha, we are lucky. The daughter-in-law of the governor of Beizhen is named Meng, and she is the legitimate daughter of the Meng family in Jiangnan. We were lucky enough to catch up with Mr. Wu's daughter-in-law when she returned from a visit to relatives that day, and she brought back several jars of 'Jiangnan Green'

.”

"Thank you, sir!" Chu Qing bowed deeply.

The Meng family in the south of the Yangtze River, the in-laws of the governor in the north town, the tribute wine, and the imperial merchants. Chu Qing was very grateful to Mr. Jiang for the reminder.

"Haha, it's getting late. If you don't go back, the family won't be allowed in!" Mr. Jiang waved the wine jar in his hand and left.

Meng family.

Meng Pei, the head of the Meng family, came home very late. As soon as he entered the door, he heard the housekeeper tell him what happened during the day.

The housekeeper must say that he went with his wife and didn't help at all. When he came back, he was fined a silver coin. He felt wronged. This was something he could help with!

Meng Pei was so angry after hearing this! This woman is usually domineering, but how dare she be so domineering with the Secret Investigation Department? Who gave her the courage!

She rushed into the house angrily and cursed loudly. Mrs. Meng quit: "Master, I have a bad temper. If you have the ability, you can kill that shabby household!"

I've lost several teeth, it's hard to speak, and I'm leaking a lot.

Meng Pei is so angry! If that damn woman hadn't been swollen into a pig's head and had nowhere to start, he would have beaten her long ago!

"Please calm down! Don't make trouble with the imperial merchants every day! Who is the imperial merchants? The ones in Jiangnan are the ones! We are just dependent on others!"

"Do you think the surname is Meng, which means that the emperor is a merchant? Wu Rongfa is also surnamed Wu. Is he related to the governor of Beizhen? Yes? If nothing happens, everyone will be fine. If something happens, we will be exterminated immediately. Do you believe it or not!"

Meng Pei walked around step by step, pointing at Mrs. Meng and scolding her, very irritated. The Wu Rongfa he was talking about was Wu Zhicheng's father and the head of the Wu family.

Xiaobao and Qiusheng went to school as usual the next day, regardless of whether the injuries on their faces looked good or not.

What's the point of not looking good? This is a medal of merit! It's a medal of merit for beating up Meng Xianchao! Meng Xianchao didn't even come today, did he? The bridge of his nose is broken, just keep it at home!

Wu Zhicheng didn't come to school, and the incident of peeing his pants still spread, and he was embarrassed. Qian Jinhong didn't delay, but he was silent all day. He always felt that he always smelled of shit!

Qiu Sheng and Xiao Bao received a lot of attention from people. Those from poor families. Those who helped send these "injured patients" to doctors yesterday were almost all from poor families.

We met in the cafeteria at lunch today. Xiaobao took the initiative to say hello to them. The elder brother is the younger brother and the younger brother is very enthusiastic. He even invited them to come and play at home during the holiday.

These half-grown children were very excited. They had all heard about what happened yesterday. Xiaobao's mother turned out to be such a powerful person! Xiaobao was still talking and laughing with them, unlike those powerful children, who was very friendly.

But Chu Qing got busy. The boys from Xinlunzhou acted very quickly. The second team collected a large amount of wool and sheep tail oil and transported them back.

Due to the war, the people of Xinlun Prefecture were unable to sell a lot of wool, and now they were evacuated by the second team. Everyone was happy, they had food to eat, and the second team got wool and sheep tail oil.

Chu Qing handed over a stall in the city to Lao Yu and Zhuo Yao, and took Chu Yuan back to Baolu Group.

Chu Qing led everyone to boil mutton oil, make soap, and wash wool. The young man was led by the boss himself, so he was very energetic! He had to sing "Guanshan Wine" while making mutton oil.

Sometimes, even when everyone was working quietly, no one would hum a few words and it would turn into a chorus! Chu Qing was almost stunned.

The winter in the north is dry, and the kangs are all burned. The temperature and humidity are both suitable, and the soap comes out quickly. After participating in all the processes and giving instructions on precautions, six or seven days have passed.

Chu Qing returned to the city with a large bag of wool.

Tomorrow Xiaobao will entertain friends at home, Chu Qing needs to make preparations.

When I got home, everything I could think of about Zhuo Yao had been prepared, and even the meals had been reserved at the Blue House. Chu Qing really didn’t have to worry about anything.

It's better not to worry about it and spend all your time studying spinning threads.

There is no cotton produced in Daxuan, and there is no hemp in the north, so there is not even a spinning wheel in the north. Chu Qing relied on homemade spindles to twist wool by hand, which was very laborious.

I worked until midnight, and my eyes were red and swollen. In the era without electricity, working by the light of candles was too torturous.

The next day, just after breakfast, Xiaobao’s friends came together. Good guys! There were more than a dozen of them!

Chu Qing met with the children and handed them over to Zhuo Yao and Chu Yuan. They were all boys, so he had to step away in a sensible manner, otherwise the children would feel uncomfortable.

There are outdoor fitness equipment in the yard, which makes the boys very excited. Xiaobao demonstrated to them the use of each equipment.

The shyness they felt when they first arrived quickly disappeared. No one cared about them, and Chu Yuan and Zhuo Yao only came over occasionally to take a look, so they were very relaxed.

When they heard that Xiaobao and Qiu Sheng had to practice kung fu with Zhuo Yao every morning, they were extremely envious.

Xiaobao saw that he was showing off enough, so he said: "If you want to do this, you can come to my house. There are still rooms in my house that are not occupied."

"How can that be done?" said one child, "We can't stay up all night."

"Yes, if caught in school, we might be expelled." Other children also agreed.

"Oh, does it cost money to live in the school?" Qiu Sheng asked.

"Why not spend it! If we hadn't lived in another county, we wouldn't have lived in the school. The expense is expensive!"

"Then do you also need to pay accommodation fees in addition to Shu Xiu?"

"Yes, in order to support my education, the eldest and second brothers in our family have not married a wife yet."

"My family is the same. My grandfather has cold legs and goes to the fields with my father, just to save money for me to study."

Half-year-old children are all in the stage of changing their voices. When a group of little ducks talk about this, their voices become deep and magnetic.

Chu Qing was twisting woolen yarn in the room, and his eyes were blurry. When he came out to get some air, he heard Xiaobao say:

"You come to live in my house, give up the dormitory, save money to buy books, pass the exam early, and your family will be better off."

A group of children were stunned for a moment, then laughed again, thanking their little brother for his concern. But how could they take it seriously? Who is not a fool to live in someone else's home and save their own money?

"Mom, is this okay?" Xiaobao asked when he saw Chu Qing.

"Oh? Oh, you are in charge, you have the final say!" Chu Qing answered simply.

This is not a big deal. The child has good intentions, Chu Qing is willing to support it, Xiaobao is willing to make friends, and he is under his own nose, so he cannot suffer any loss.

These poor students were all dumbfounded. Is this so careless?

After Chu Qing finished speaking, she left. It was almost lunch time. The children had been playing all morning and they must be very hungry. She wanted to prepare a meal.

Zhuo Yao was very smart and ordered hot pot at the Blue House.

When Chu Qing found Zhuo Yao, he was leading people to decorate the restaurant so that the children could eat on a big table. He also had to place three hot pots, which had to be arranged properly.

Xiaobao is too young to eat food that is too hot. Zhuo Yao also carefully ordered some of Xiaobao's favorite stir-fry dishes and brought them all to him.

Xiaobao led everyone to the big round table and invited them to sit down. Chu Yuan served them three red soup and honey hawthorn tea as drinks.

The children have never eaten like this. Hot pot and stew are similar in form, but the yin and yang fish-shaped mandarin duck pot not only solves the taste problem, but also reveals a bit of mystery.

Two large shiny iron pots were kept warm on the stove. Inside were two kinds of hot pot soups. The slices of meat were enough to eat. The children had never had such a good time during the Chinese New Year.

Xiaobao doesn't make friends with everyone. These twelve students who helped them yesterday seem to be the most sincere, and the boy who held Xiaobao's hand is also among them.

While everyone was eating and chatting, Xiaobao added, "The school has just started and the various fees haven't been paid yet, so you don't have to pay the accommodation fee."
