Huoshui:...Alas, poor child, you are firmly in Gu Qingcheng's palm, and you don't even know it!
…
While Zhao Qingyun was studying and thinking about how to make money, three days had passed.
That day, Zhao Qingyun came back from the private school and he had a vague idea.
While borrowing books from his teacher's house, he accidentally saw a set of miscellaneous notes written by an ancient sage whose dynasty and name were unknown.
This sage seemed to be a Taoist priest and wrote many interesting stories related to Taoism.
Among them, it mentioned a miraculous method of making ice using a certain mineral.
Zhao Qingyun felt that if he could complete and restore this ancient recipe, he should be able to sell it for money.
"Where can I get saltpeter? Perhaps the chemist's shop has it!"
Zhao Qingyun sat at the desk, doing two things at once.
I took the brush in my hand, dipped it in water, and then practiced writing on a clean bluestone slab.
My brain is working fast.
As expected, people can always unleash their potential when faced with tremendous pressure.
Although Zhao Qingyun was smart and independent in the past, he still had his biological father Zhao Guodong to protect him from the wind and rain.
Without his biological father, he became the pillar of the family, and with a mother who was not easy to worry about, he could only push himself hard!
This pressure actually made Zhao Qingyun come up with a solution.
Zhao Qingyun practiced calligraphy while perfecting his plan.
"Cousin! Cousin Gu, are you home?"
At this moment, a burst of crying came from outside the door, coming closer and closer.
Zhao Qingyun was so frightened that his thoughts were completely confused.
He raised his head, frowned slightly, and a bad premonition flashed through his heart.
"Xiao Ya, go and see who is crying outside!"
Zhao Qingyun had a cold face and gave an order in a deep voice.
Xiao Ya, Zhao Da’s little daughter, is only six years old this year.
Gu Qingcheng fought with the top talents in the Zhao family’s old house for several rounds. Those top talents were completely convinced and dared not to make trouble anymore.
In addition to the head of each household taking turns to do hard labor for Gu Qingcheng and her two children every ten days, the children in the family also took turns to come here to "help".
Today it is the turn of the Zhao family’s child.
Xiao Ya and her two brothers and sisters came running over early in the morning.
The little ones are very diligent, serving tea and water, feeding chickens and pigs.
Ahem, apart from the advice from her parents, Gu Qingcheng is also quite generous.
She would occasionally give the children a tip of one or two copper coins, or a small treat like a snack or candy.
Not to mention, the children who come to help are provided with food and accommodation.
Three meals a day, each meal contains oil, water and fine grains.
I could keep watch over my sick aunt at night, sleep on soft new bedding, and have an egg as a snack the next day!
It can be said that as long as the children have been with Gu Qingcheng, they will be extremely active without their parents urging them.
My aunt is so nice, she gives me money and food. It is said that if I behave well, I can get a new set of clothes at the end of the year!
If possible, they all want to stay with their aunt (aunt) as their children!
The children really liked serving Gu Qingcheng and her son, so when Zhao Xiaoya heard Zhao Qingyun's instructions, she ran out obediently without saying a word.
Soon, Zhao Xiaoya was taken back to the yard by several people.
She shouted, "What are you doing? Don't trespass!"
My aunt and cousin are both well-mannered people. They knock on the door when entering and make a sound when leaving.
Unlike the villagers around him, he didn't just walk into other people's yards.
He comes and goes without even saying hello.
After staying in Zhao Guodong's house for a long time, Zhao Xiaoya and a group of other little kids were also influenced by them and couldn't help but talk about the rules.
But the people outside the door were too arrogant, crying and shouting as they tried to force their way in.
It was too late for Zhao Xiaoya to come back and report to her cousin or aunt!
"Cousin! Cousin Gu! Something happened! Something serious!"
"Go away! You little girl, what are you doing here?"
"Cousin, help! Cousin, please help us!"
There were several people, both men and women, all young and strong.
They entered the yard and pulled Zhao Xiaoya aside because she was in the way.
Zhao Xiaoya was almost pushed down.
Fortunately, children in the countryside have been raised in a free-range manner since childhood, and they are all very tough.
Zhao Xiaoya staggered two steps, but did not fall, nor was she scared.
She just looked unhappy: What kind of person is this? He is so arrogant and doesn’t know any rules at all!
Zhao Qingyun heard the howling of these people and felt more and more uneasy.
He put down his pen and stood up.
However, he was still a step too slow. His mother, with a confused look on her face, held Zhao Erya's hand and walked out in a gentle voice.
"Who are you?"
Gu Qingcheng had already guessed who the visitor was, but she still pretended to be confused.
"Cousin! Cousin Gu! Please save my stupid wife!"
Seeing the stunningly beautiful Gu Qingcheng, the weeping and wailing people were stunned at first: Who is this fairy who seems to have walked out of a painting? Could it be Gu?
Immediately afterwards, a man who looked to be about thirty years old came back to life first and howled at Gu Qingcheng...
