Chapter 439: Receiving Another Gift

Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations

“It’s so early. Where are you going, General Tang?” Rong Dayuan’s words were harsh and unpleasant.

Tang Jinghong’s eyes were filled with ridicule as he said in a low and slow tone, “I just came back from the Prime Minister’s residence. However, don’t worry. Qingzhi has already saved your family.”

Rong Dayuan stiffened, his face showing a moment of intense expression. What does this have to do with Chu Qingzhi?

Chu Qingzhi was Tang Jinghong’s fiancee. If Chu Qingzhi helped the Prime Minister, wouldn’t their family owe Tang Jinghong a huge favor in the future?

At the thought of this, Rong Dayuan felt extremely frustrated.

Not knowing what to say, he flicked his sleeves and continued walking towards the Prime Minister’s residence.

Tang Jinghong raised his eyebrows and smiled. He would slowly make the Prime Minister’s family return the favor in the future. There was still a long way to go. There was no hurry.

In the afternoon, the carriages of the palace, the Prime Minister’s residence, the Grand Tutor, the Grand Guard, the Grand Commander, and the other ministers drove over and stopped at the entrance of the National General’s residence.

When the two guards saw such a huge scene, they hurriedly went forward to receive them.

The one who came from the palace was the Empress’s personal nanny, Rong Shiyu from the Prime Minister’s residence, and the other ministers were also sent juniors like the heir of the family.

These people only had one thing to do, and that was to give Chu Qingzhi a gift as a token of their appreciation.

Chu Qingzhi was eating. Tang Jinghong did not come back, so she slept for a while longer and only woke up in the afternoon. Nanny Han made the food. It was all her favorite.

The guard quickly walked to the dining room and reported the situation at the door to Chu Qingzhi.

Chu Qingzhi thought to herself, These people have the habit of repaying kindness. I quite like them. Who doesn’t like to receive gifts?

She put down the chopsticks and followed the guard to the front hall.

The guests were ushered to the front hall by another guard. When they saw Chu Qingzhi, they stood up and greeted her.

After greeting, Chu Qingzhi invited everyone to sit and asked Nanny Han to serve tea.

There were pitifully few servants in the general’s residence. There was Tang Jinghong, two guards, four servants, Nanny Han, and an old man guarding the back door.

Rong Shiyu said happily, “Qingzhi, are you happy to see me?”

Only best friends would call each other by their names. Chu Qingzhi had a good impression of the girls, so she was also quite friendly.

Chu Qingzhi nodded. “Why are you here personally?”

Rong Shiyu put down her arrogance in front of Chu Qingzhi and said intimately, “I just wanted to thank you personally.”

Chu Qingzhi smiled. “You’re welcome.”

Nanny Han brought tea over. When she saw the Empress’s nanny, she said respectfully, “Nanny, please drink the tea.”

The nanny sized up Nanny Han and smiled. “You’re quite lucky to serve Miss Chu.”

Nanny Han was living a relaxed and happy life now. She was many times better than in the palace. She smiled sincerely. “I’m indeed lucky.”

The nanny from the palace stood up and said to Chu Qingzhi, “I’m here on the Empress’s orders to give Miss Chu a reward…”

The two eunuchs standing at the side walked to Chu Qingzhi with the box in their hands.

Chu Qingzhi gestured to Nanny Han. “Take the Empress’s reward to the back hall.”

Nanny Han bowed. “Yes.”

Immediately after, Rong Shiyu asked the servants to hand over the gifts, and the others followed suit.

After sending the gifts, everyone bade farewell and left.

Rong Shiyu also planned to leave. There were too many things to do at home, so she had to go back and help. “Qingzhi, I’ll hold a banquet in the residence tomorrow. Can you come to my house?”

Chu Qingzhi rejected her apologetically. “I’m going back to the village tomorrow.”

Rong Shiyu was surprised and a little reluctant. “Huh? Back to the village? So soon?”

Chu Qingzhi nodded with a smile in her eyes. “25th is my brother’s wedding day. I have to rush back.”

“Really?” Rong Shiyu smiled and congratulated. “I wish your brother and sister-in-law a happy marriage and a child soon.”

“Thank you, Shiyu.”

Rong Shiyu grabbed Chu Qingzhi’s hand and reminded her, “Next time you come to the capital, send someone to tell me. We’ll play together.”

Chu Qingzhi smiled. “Alright, I’ll definitely tell you when the time comes.”

Rong Shiyu left with the servant girls and servants.

After sending off the guests, Chu Qingzhi walked to the back hall.

Nanny Han went forward and reminded her, “Miss, after receiving the Empress’s reward, you need to enter the palace to thank her.”

Despite not wanting to go, Chu Qingzhi still said, “I’ll go immediately.”

She turned around and walked out.

When she came to the street and saw some people selling sugar cakes, Chu Qingzhi thought of the little cutie, the crown prince. She walked to the stall selling sugar cakes and bought a catty.

In fact, she originally didn’t like those young children, but ever since she came into contact with them, she felt that they were quite cute, so her impression of them changed.

Along the way, she unknowingly bought ten snacks.

Chu Qingzhi finally realized what was going on. She looked at what she had bought. “A woman’s desire to buy is endless…”

Coincidentally, when Chu Qingzhi arrived at the entrance of the palace, Eunuch Li Fei happened to have just returned from going out to deliver the decree.

Chu Qingzhi walked up and greeted, “Eunuch Li.”

Eunuch Li Fei turned around in surprise. “Miss Chu, why are you here?”

Chu Qingzhi said, “The empress sent a nanny to send me a reward just now. I came to the palace to thank her and bought some snacks for the little crown prince.”

Eunuch Li Fei smiled. “Miss Chu is very considerate. Please.”

Eunuch Li Fei personally sent Chu Qingzhi to the empress’s palace hall and even sent someone to inform the little crown prince that Chu Qingzhi was here. The little crown prince had been talking about meeting this sister day and night.

In the Central Palace.

Chu Qingzhi had just expressed her gratitude to the empress when a soft voice came from outside. “Sister…”

Chu Qingzhi turned around and looked at the door. Soon, a figure in bright yellow rushed in.

The crown prince had short legs. When he stepped through the door, the tip of his shoe kicked the high threshold. He wobbled and fell to the ground.

Chu Qingzhi flashed over to catch him. “Run slower.”

When the empress and the palace maids and eunuchs saw this scene, their hearts almost jumped out of their chests. The empress hurriedly walked over and pulled the crown prince to examine him carefully. “You can’t run like this next time.”

The crown prince said generously, “Mother, I’m fine.”

The Empress touched her chest. “You’re fine. I’m not. I was scared to death just now.”

The crown prince immediately said obediently, “Then I’ll be more careful next time.”

Chu Qingzhi thought to herself, What a cute and sensible child. She walked over and brought the snacks she bought. “Your Highness, this is for you.”

The crown prince’s eyes flickered with curiosity. “What is this?”

Chu Qingzhi handed the snacks to the crown prince. “Snacks, eat slowly, but you can only eat them during the day. You can’t eat them at night.”

The crown prince obediently agreed and took the snacks with both hands. “Thank you, Sister.”

Then, he ran excitedly to the stool and opened the small sugar packet..
