Old Master Chu was indignant and said forcefully, “Qingzhi, you’ve been father and daughter for 15 years. Think of a way.”

Chu Qingzhi’s face was cold. “Pm sorry. I’m only 15 years old and my knowledge is limited. I can’t tell what’s wrong with him.”

Old Master Chu’s eyes turned red and he looked even older. His back was slightly hunched. “Why don’t you give it a try? You can help him ease the pain.”

Chu Qingzhi shook her head. “I can’t help.”

Old Madam Chu roared, “Don’t beg her. What an ungrateful girl. If I had known, 1 wouldn’t have brought her back in the first place.”

Old Master Chu looked at Chu Qingzhi in disappointment and staggered towards the carriage.

Chu Zhongyuan and his family left the Chu Village.

Chu Qingzhi stared at the carriage that was getting further and further away. She smiled. They probably wouldn’t come again in the future.

Nie Huiyang found Chu Qingzhi with a warm smile. “Miss Chu, the house has been built. Go and check it.”

He had been working here for more than three months and already understood that the real master of this family was this fifteen-year-old girl in front of him, so he came straight to her.

Chu Qingzhi smiled. “It’s been hard on you, Brother Nie. I’ll go take a look now.”

She turned around and shouted to her family, “Father, Mother, the house has been built. Let’s go take a look.”

Li Qingyu’s surprised voice sounded. “Coming, coming…”

The other members of the Chu family also walked out and followed Nie Huiyang to the new house. Everyone looked expectant and happy.

It was a hundred or so steps from the old house to the new one.

Chu Qingzhi stood in front of the new house and looked at it in satisfaction.

The house was a two-story bungalow with an ancient style. It was very exquisite and beautiful.

“Father, Mother, let’s go in and take a look.”

Chu Qingzhi walked in first. What greeted her was a traditional central room, in the shape of a rectangular. It was very spacious and bright.

There were two doors on the left, opening to two bedrooms, one for Li Qingyu and Chu Rong and one for Grandpa Chu and Granny Chu.

There was a door on the right. Inside was the dining room. There was a door on the back and right of this room. The door on the back led to the pantry, where food and other things were stored. The door on the right led to the kitchen.

There were stairs in the kitchen that led to the second floor. The middle of the second floor was used as a living space and there were six bedrooms on the side.

Chu Xuhua and Chu Xujin shared a room. Chu Qingyue and Chu Qingning shared a room. Chu Qingshuang and Chu Qingyan shared a room. Chu Xuyuan and Chu Xuyao shared a room. Shen Ruyue occupied a room and the other room was a guest room.

It was impossible for everyone to have a room of their own, but Chu Xuhua and Chu Xujin would soon get married and build their own house. When the time came, their room would be empty.

There was a balcony outside. If one walked along the balcony to the left, there would be a large room above the kitchen.

Chu Qingzhi specially designed this room for herself. It was rectangular and was about 40 square meters. There were two windows, and the lighting was excellent.

After Chu Qingzhi saw the house, she was especially satisfied.

She came down from upstairs. “Brother Nie, your house building skills are really good. Next, my first brother and third brother will also need a house. I’ll have to trouble you.”

Nie Huiyang quickly agreed with a smile. “Leave it to us.”

Chu Qingzhi was very happy that Nie Huiyang’s team had put in so much effort to build the house. When she was happy, she was more generous. “Brother Nie, please come with me to the old house. Let’s settle the accounts.”

Nie Huiyang’s smile deepened. “Alright.”

Chu Qingzhi took out the account book and flipped to the page that recorded construction expenditure.

After careful calculation, it added to a total of 820 taels to build the house.

“Brother Nie, thank you for helping my family build the house.”

“It’s my job.”

Chu Qingzhi took the broom and went to clean the new house with her family. After cleaning it up, they could slowly move over.

After three months of hard work, other than a large table and matching chairs, Chu Rong had not made any other furniture. He really could not do so much alone.

Hence, Chu Qingzhi planned to go to the county to buy furniture. They would need beds and wardrobes. As for the other small furniture, Chu Rong could make it slowly. There was no hurry.

After the house was cleaned, Chu Rong and the rest went to move the furniture while Chu Qingzhi went to the county.

However, when she arrived in the county, she encountered something unpleasant.

Shopkeeper Qian rushed towards Chu Qingzhi. “Aiyo, Miss Chu, I was just about to look for you.”

Chu Qingzhi hurriedly asked, “Shopkeeper Qian, what happened?”

Shopkeeper Qian looked a little dissatisfied. “There’s something wrong with your rice dumplings.”

“There’s a problem with the rice dumpling? What’s the problem?” Chu Qingzhi’s intuition told her that something was wrong. From the ingredients to the production, there was no mistake in every step. How could there be a problem?

“Miss Chu, come with me to take a look.” Shopkeeper Qian hurriedly brought Chu Qingzhi to Hongyan Restaurant.

As soon as he returned to the restaurant, Shopkeeper Qian immediately placed the rice dumplings he wanted to show Chu Qingzhi on the table and unwrapped them. “Miss Chu, look.”

There were a total of three rice dumplings. First of all, the color of the rice dumplings was wrong. Chu Qingzhi picked one up and took a bite. After chewing it twice, she immediately vomited. Why did it have a moldy smell? And it was so salty?

“Shopkeeper Qian, where did this rice dumpling come from?” Chu Qingzhi was sure that there was something wrong with the rice dumpling, and it was not hers.

Shopkeeper Qian waved at the five or six people sitting in the corner of the hall. “Come here!”

These were all women. Some were young, some were middle-aged, and they were dressed quite well. They should be from the county.

A tall and thin woman walked over and said angrily, “We like to eat rice dumplings very much and buy them almost every day. But for some reason today, the taste of rice dumplings has changed.”

Chu Qingzhi asked patiently, “May I ask if you bought it in this restaurant?”

The woman said with certainty, “Of course. Otherwise, why would we come here to ask for a refund?”

This woman was not lying. The problem must be in the restaurant. Chu Qingzhi thought for a moment. “Shopkeeper, get the waiter to go to the county office to find someone called Chu Xujin and let him investigate.” This was also an opportunity for him to practice..
