Chapter 242 A Cold-blooded and Compassionate Woman
As soon as Sun Chu put the glass cake into his mouth, he was frightened by Ye Chutang's words and choked, and couldn't stop coughing.
Everyone's eyes were on him, with caution and suspicion.
"Don't look at me, I didn't do anything!"
Ye Chutang suddenly approached Sun Chu and stared into his eyes.
"I didn't do anything, why are you so guilty?"
As soon as she finished speaking, she took out the crumpled letter from Sun Chu's belt while he was not paying attention.
Sun Chu subconsciously tried to grab it, but was hit in the Quchixue by Ye Chutang's index finger.
The pain came over me and my arms became weak.
"Let me see what it is?"
As soon as Ye Chutang finished speaking, Sun Chu shouted excitedly: "Don't look! At least don't look in front of other people!"
After that, he recited a poem by Li Bai.
After hearing this, Ye Chutang immediately guessed the general content of the letter.
She gave Sun Chu a cold look, then stood up and went back to her room.
Madam Qi looked at Sun Chu with displeasure on her face.
"Mr. Sun, what's written on the paper ball? What makes you so concerned?"
She was not a person who liked to pry, but Sun Chu and Ye Chutang's reactions were too strange.
Sun Chu made up a story, "This is a poem I wrote. If it were spread to the world, it would definitely surpass Madam Qi's."
Madam Qi's literary talent is average and she doesn't know much about poetry.
She immediately looked at her daughter.
Qi Qingyu was also a famous talented woman in the capital.
After listening to the poem recited by Sun Chu, she knew that he was also a man of great literary talent.
But she didn’t know whether she could compete with Ye Chutang.
"Mother, the poem that Young Master Sun just wrote is indeed very good, far better than those talented people."
Having said that, she felt that the poem in the paper ball was not an ordinary one.
But...a love poem!
His brother's wife saved Sun Chu's life, so it is natural for him to fall in love with her.
She has to remind her brother to be wary of Sun Chu!
Sun Chu didn't know that Qi Qingyu had bad intentions, and he felt uneasy when he was stared at by her cold gaze.
"Ahem, I'm a little sleepy. I'm going back to my room to rest."
After saying that, he stuffed the unfinished glass cake into his mouth, then got up and went upstairs.
When I reached Ye Chutang's door, it suddenly opened from the inside.
A white, slender hand reached out and pulled him in.
When Qi Qingyu downstairs saw this, his face changed drastically.
She quickly stood up and was about to leave when Old Madam Qi grabbed her arm.
"Yu'er, why are you leaving too?"
Qi Qingyu didn't know how to explain.
She was worried that telling the truth would affect Ye Chutang's reputation, so she had to find an excuse.
"Mom, I want to get some Liuli cake for Shaoping to eat."
Because Sun Shaoping had difficulty walking, the postman arranged for him to live in the backyard.
After dinner, he went back to his room.
Madam Qi nodded without thinking too much, "Take it, and take a bath while you're at it. We'll take care of the child first."
"Okay, I'll pick up the kids when I'm done."
Before Qi Qingyu left, she lowered her voice and said, "Mother, isn't it inappropriate for Master Sun and my sister-in-law to be in the same room?"
Old Madam Qi had great faith in Ye Chutang's character and glared at Qi Qingyu unhappily.
"Don't say that again. I believe in Atang."
When Qi Qingyu heard this, he felt that he was a little too worried.
Even if Sun Chu has bad intentions, my brother and sister-in-law are worthy of trust.
"Mom, I understand."
When Qi Qingyu took the glass cake to the backyard, Ye Chutang combined the two pieces of paper into one and pushed it in front of Sun Chu.
"You're pretty smart. You even checked me out. Go ahead."
Sun Chu: “…”
Shouldn't he be the one saying "Go ahead" to Ye Chutang?
He straightened his wrinkled collar and repeated the "secret code" he had given before.
“Odds change, evens don’t.”
Ye Chutang smiled and asked, "What if I am a liberal arts student and forget this sentence?"
"…Palace Jade Liquor."
"Congratulations, you've met a science student who knows the next sentence. Look at the quadrant for the symbol."
When Sun Chu saw Ye Chutang admitted it, he stood up excitedly.
"You...are you really from the same hometown?"
Compared to his excitement, Ye Chutang seemed unusually calm.
"Yes, from the modern era."
Since Sun Chu has already guessed my identity, there is no need to hide it.
Anyway, when she arrives in Tianshan County, he will still confirm her identity because of the business she wants to do.
Sun Chu was infected by Ye Chutang's calmness and sat down immediately.
"When did you come? Where are you from? Is there any system or other plug-in? Are we traveling through a book or a time travel? Can we return to the real world?"
He had so many questions that he only asked a few of the ones he cared about most.
Ye Chutang didn't answer any of them.
"When you get to Tianshan County, you will slowly find the answer."
Sun Chu looked at Ye Chutang pitifully, "One, just answer one."
His current mood is: when fellow villagers meet, their eyes are filled with tears.
I can't sleep or eat well if I don't talk about the familiar past.
Ye Chutang shook his head firmly, "I need to test whether you are trustworthy, so I refuse to answer."
Sun Chu immediately made a zippering motion on his lips.
"No matter what you said, I will keep my mouth shut!"
He is not stupid, so of course he would not tell anyone that they came from another world.
Although there were no "slice laboratories" in ancient times, only by being cautious can one live a long life.
Ye Chutang stretched out his index finger and shook it, "Tianshan County."
Seeing that she didn't let go, Sun Chu sighed in disappointment.
"Okay, I'll wait!"
After saying that, he suddenly hugged Ye Chutang.
“I’m really happy to meet my fellow countrymen here.”
Before Ye Chutang could hit anyone, he immediately let go and smiled wickedly.
"Before, I was forced to listen to you, but from now on, I will listen to you sincerely."
In this life, he will depend on this cold-blooded yet compassionate woman!
Ye Chutang was not moved by Sun Chu's sincerity.
Her trust in a person is based on long-term understanding and experience.
"Go out and pretend you didn't find anything."
"Okay, good night!"
Sun Chu had never thought before that the words "good night" would become so strange and familiar.
When he left Ye Chutang's room, Qi Yanzhou had already arrived at the Taoist temple that Zhu Hong often visited.
***
Taiqing Temple.
This would be the hour of Xu.
The Taoist temple no longer has the hustle and bustle of the day, but also does not have the silence of the night.
Because the pilgrims who stayed overnight were still listening to the Taoist priest’s lectures and gaining enlightenment.
There are also some Taoists meditating and practicing Tai Chi.
Based on Ma Kun's description of the Taoist temple, Qi Yanzhou went to Hanguangyuan where the orphans lived.
Hanguangyuan is at the end of the Taoist temple and is connected to the back mountain.
There were two lanterns hanging at the gate of the yard, and two little Taoist priests were guarding the gate.
The yard was dark, with the occasional whisper of a child audible.
The Taoists ignored them and dozed off.
When Qi Yanzhou climbed over the wall and entered, he did not alarm the two people.
Apart from the main gate, Hanguangyuan is surrounded by rooms with large bunk beds on all sides.
There is a well in the backyard and some vegetables are planted.
A kitchen and storeroom were also built.
Qi Yanzhou did not go to check on the child, but lit up the kitchen.
When the Taoist discovered the fire, the kitchen had already caught fire and the fire was very big.
The fire had already spread to the room where the children lived.
"The fire is coming out. Put it out!"
Qi Yanzhou hid in the dark, waiting to see who would be the first child the Taoist priest saved.
If Zhu Hong has a child from another family, it must be this child!
