Chu Qingzhi inquired, “What’s happened?”

Rong Shiyu asked Chu Qingzhi to sit at the side and told her what had happened

from beginning to end.

Chu Qingzhi looked up at the sky, “The girl you mentioned, Bao Yunhong, Linjiang’s cousin, came here with her fiance to seek medical attention. Are you telling me you were jealous of his cousin?”

“Cousin?” Rong Shiyu was shocked, and the heavyweight in her heart caused by Bao Yunhong instantly vanished, followed by endless regret. “I should have asked for clarification.”

“Too impulsive.”

“I’ll definitely ask for clarification next time.” After a pause, Rong Shiyu inquired, “The last time you saw Linjiang, what was he doing?”

“Hewas sitting in atree, lost in thought.”

“Lost in thought!” Rong Shiyu’s heart fluttered with uncertainty. “But that’s wrong. He scolded me. What was he lost in thought about?”

“Linjiang is indeed quick-tempered, but I’ve never seen him angry. This time, his reaction was probably out of concern for you. Don’t go missing again. Those who worry about you will be deeply concerned, while those who don’t care won’t even bat an eyelid even if you’re gone. So, you’re only hurting the people who care about you and value you, understand?”

Rong Shiyu nodded, having taken the lesson to heart, “Qingzhi, I realize my mistake.”

“That’s good. As long as everything’s out in the open.” Chu Qingzhi then slightly defended her disciple, “Shiyu, Linjiang may be young, but he’s stable, mature, responsible, caring, and not fickle. If you choose him, you won’t regret it in the future.”

Rong Shiyu was already fond of Bao Linjiang, and Chu Qingzhi’s words only solidified her feelings, “Lin Jiang is indeed very good.”

“I’ll ask him to come see you tomorrow. You two should have a good talk.”

Rong Shiyu appreciated Chu Qingzhi’s gesture, “Thank you, Qingzhi.

“We’re family, no need for formalities.”

At the inn.

Bao Linjiang knocked on the door, “Cousin.”

The door opened, and Wu Bingyi, now fully recovered, stood aside as Bao Yunhong reverted to her playful and honest self, “What brings you here?

Bao Linjiang said, “I came to see how you both were doing. How’s Wu Bingyi?”

Bao Yunhong crossed her arms, feigning anger as she looked sideways at Bao Linjiang, “What Wu Bingyi? He’s your future cousin-in-law. Call him brother.”

Bao Linjiang retorted, “In your dreams.”

Bao Yunhong was speechless.

Wu Bingyi, now able to get out of bed, approached with a smile, “Linjiang, have you eaten? If not, shall we eat together?”

Bao Linjiang tilted his head, “Let’s go to the best restaurant.”

Wu Bingyi responded, “As you wish.”

The three headed to Hongyun Restaurant and booked a private room. Bao Linjiang got straight to the point, “My master is planning to build a brick kiln, and I’ll need your help when the time comes.”

Wu Bingyi’s family had been in construction for five generations, with many mansions in the capital built by them. With high- ranking officials in the Ministry of Revenue and a vast family network, they were a prominent and wealthy household.

Wu Bingyi readily agreed, “Don’t worry. From now on, we’ll prioritize buying bricks from your master.”

Bao Linjiang gave Wu Bingyi an appreciative look, “You’re smart.”

After dinner, Chu Qingzhi carried a small plate filled with rice, peanuts, and beans upstairs, announcing, “Shuang’er, it’s time to eat.”

With a swift motion, the parrot flew out from under the eaves, exclaiming, “I’m starving, I’m starving…”

Chu Qingzhi placed the plate on the table and with a gentle sweep of her hand, the peanuts and beans were crushed into tiny bits the size of rice grains. Enjoy your luxury meal.”

“Luxury meal, luxury meal…” the parrot landed on the table, very pleased, and began pecking at the peanut fragments.

Chu Qingzhi sat down and gently stroked the parrot’s head. Its head was round, feathers shiny, adorned with a single tuft of hair, looking incredibly cute.

After watching Shuang’er eat for a while, Chu Qingzhi went to check on the bird eggs under the eaves.

Using her divine vision, she saw that the eggs had already developed into embryos, with some just a day or two away from hatching.

Hmm?

Chu Qingzhi was surprised to find an extra egg on the edge and picked it up, “Did a parrot come here to lay eggs?”

Shuang’er replied, “Friend, friend…”

Shuang’er had told its friends, in their unique parrot language, about the generous household it had found.

One friend’s nest was destroyed by a strong wind, and with egg-laying imminent, it had no choice but to lay its egg in the nest Chu Qingzhi had made.

When the friend left, it pushed the egg into the most hidden corner, not expecting Chu Qingzhi to discover it.

Chu Qingzhi placed the egg back, jokingly saying, “You let your friend lay eggs here, aren’t you afraid I’ll cook them?”

Upon hearing this, Shuang’er stopped eating its luxury meal and hurriedly flew to the windowsill, panicking, “Don’t eat, don’t eat…”

Chu Qingzhi laughed, “I’m just joking. If your friend likes it here, they can come and lay their eggs in the nest, but after they hatch, they belong to me, okay?”

Shuang’er raised its bird face, pondering for a moment. Considering the daily luxury meals and the good care from Chu Qingzhi, it seemed like a fair deal, “I’ll tell them, I’ll tell them…”

Chu Qingzhi nodded, “Okay, you tell them.”

Shuang’er flew back to continue enjoying its luxury meal.

Chu Qingzhi channeled her spiritual power, and a sphere of spiritual energy slowly formed in her palm, flying towards the nest to envelop all the eggs, nourishing the embryos.

Parrots born in this way would be even smarter than Shuang’er. If trained as military parrots, they would be perfect.

At Li Qingyin’s home.

Tian Xiaoqiu spent the day anxious, only beginning to relax after returning home with Xu Songnian and Xu Wenlin.

Li Qingyin came out of the house, “Dinner will be ready soon. You three should do your homework first. I’ll call you when it’s time to eat.”

Xu Songnian said, “Mother, let’s help you work. We can do our homework after dinner.”

Tian Xiaoqiu quickly added, “I’ll help too.”

Xu Wenlin raised her hand, “Me as well.”

Li Qingyin smiled at the three endearing children, “It’s the thought that counts, but I don’t need help here. Go do your homework, and try to get to bed early tonight.”

The children had been frightened today; an early night would help them

recover.

Tian Xiaoqiu hugged Li Qingyin, “Godmother, thank you for being so good to me.”

Li Qingyin gently patted Tian Xiaoqiu’s back, seeing all of them as children in need, “Dear, feel at ease living here with your godmother. Consider yourself Wenlin’s sister. I’ll treat you as my own daughter, so don’t feel burdened.

Tian Xiaoqiu nodded, “Thank you, godmother. Without you, I might already be dead.”

“If you really want to thank your godmother, then do well in your studies and strive to be at the top of your class.”

“I’ll try my best.”

“Good Girl.’
