Chapter 50: Chased Out of the House

Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations

When Chu Qingzhi saw everyone standing at the village entrance, she hurriedly walked over.

In the modern era, she was loner. After living for hundreds of years, the people around her died one after another. There were only some fellow Daoists left.

The fellow daoists were busy cultivating, and she was also busy cultivating. She rarely met them and often went into seclusion for several years.

Now that she saw people waiting for her to come back home, she felt surprised and warm. “Grandpa, Grandma, Dad, Mom, Brothers, Sisters…

“Qingzhi!”

“Fifth Sister!”

“Fifth Sister!”

Seeing that she was safe and sound, everyone finally felt relieved.

Li Qingyu wiped the tears from the corners of his eyes and pulled Chu Qingzhi over to size her up carefully. At the same time, she asked with concern, “Did the prison guard hit you?”

Chu Qingzhi’s clear eyes were filled with smiles. Under the bright moonlight, they were like stars in the sky. “No, no. Fortunately, Jinghong came in time. Otherwise, I wouldn’t have been able to come back until tomorrow.”

These words reminded the Chu family and they quickly thanked Tang Jinghong.

Tang Jinghong said calmly, “It’s getting late. Everyone, go home.”

The Chu family thanked Tang Jinghong profusely. Then, they escorted Chu Qingzhi home and asked what had happened on the way back.

Tang Jinghong stood rooted to the ground. After the Chu family left, he hesitated for a moment before going home.

He didn’t know if his family left the door open for him.

When he reached his house, he took a deep breath and gave the door a push.

Unexpectedly, the door opened.

A man’s voice came from the darkness. “Jinghong, why are you back so late?”

Tang Jinghong replied vaguely, “Something happened. I went to handle it, so I came back late.”

Mr. Tang didn’t ask Tang Jinghong what happened because he felt guilty.

When Tang Jinghong was 13 years old, the Imperial Court ordered every family to send a man to the border for military service. Tang Jinghong was only 13 years old at that time, but because he was already tall, Mr. Tang claimed that he was 15 years old. Hence, Tang Jinghong went for military service on behalf of his father.

Since he went for military service, twelve years had passed and there was no news of him at all. Everyone thought that he was already dead on the battlefield.

However, to everyone’s surprise, Tang Jinghong came back one day not long ago.

Tang Jinghong had obtained a lot of good opportunities at the border. Moreover, he was smart, motivated, and hardworking. He had even contributed a few surprising strategies during the battle, allowing the army to win a complete victory. As a result, he had obtained the recognition of General Fan.

General Fan brought him along and personally taught him. He treated him as half a son and even nurtured him as his successor.

When Tang Jinghong returned to his hometown, he even planned to bring his parents to the mansion bestowed by the emperor in the capital to enjoy a good life.

However, when he returned, he realized that his mother had passed away and his father had married someone else. His son was almost 12 years old.

What did this mean? It meant that the year he left, his mother died and his father remarried.

Not only did his father not protect his mother well, but he was also heartless. He hated his father and did not tell him that he had made a name for himself in the army. He only said that he was not in good health and came back to recuperate.

Mr. Tang said guiltily, “Jinghong, I’ve let you down. I specially waited for you here today to talk to you.”

Tang Jinghong’s attitude was very cold. “Father, if there is anything you want to say, just say it.”

Father Tang carefully probed, “Jinghong, you’re almost 26 years old. I want to arrange a marriage for you. What do you think?”

Tang Jinghong’s face was hidden in the darkness, so no one could see the gloom on his face. “Father, you just want me to move out, right?”

Mr. Tang remained silent.

Zhang Xiuqin scolded and cursed Tang Jinghong every day, causing the family to be in a mess. The only way to change the situation was to get Tang Jinghong to move out.

Tang Jinghong was silent for a long time. “Father, do you still acknowledge me as your son?”

Mr. Tang did not answer Tang Jinghong directly. “You’re my son whether I acknowledge you or not.”

Tang Jinghong’s heart turned cold. “Father, I understand.”

He went to his room and packed his things. Then, he walked out of the room and came to Mr. Tang. “Father, take care of yourself in the future. I’m leaving.”

Mr. Tang nodded and did not say anything.

Tang Jinghong turned around and walked out of the house.

As Mr. Tang watched Tang Jinghong leave, he heaved a sigh of relief and closed the door.

When Tang Jinghong heard the door close, he paused for a moment and continued forward without any reluctance.

He planned to return to the military camp. From the village to the military camp, there was a shortcut through the mountain. When he reached the foot of the mountain, he suddenly saw a figure in front of him.

Little girl!

“Qingzhi!”

Chu Qingzhi had long discovered Tang Jinghong. She stood there and waited for him. “You still want to go to the military camp so late?”

Tang Jinghong pointed at the bag and hid the sadness in his eyes. He said casually, “In the future, I’ll stay in the military camp. If you need my help, you can come to the military camp to look for me.”

Chu Qingzhi looked at Tang Jinghong. He seemed to be enduring some emotions. She guessed that there must be something going on. Otherwise, why didn’t he leave the village tomorrow? There was nothing important to do in the military camp anyway. “Why? Didn’t you come back to recuperate?”

Tang Jinghong’s eyes were as calm as water. “I’ve recuperated enough. It’s time to get back to work.”

Chu Qingzhi said with concern, “You haven’t recovered yet. Don’t overwork yourself.”

Tang Jinghong felt a warmth inside. “I’ll be careful.”

The two of them walked side by side into the mountains. The moonlight shone on their backs. One was tall and the other was short, looking very harmonious.

Chu Qingzhi suddenly said, “By the way, I haven’t asked you. Are those soldiers alright now?”

Tang Jinghong said gratefully, “They are all up and kicking now. It’s exactly as you said. The fever subsided in two hours. After that, they had a meal and drank some medicine. They are almost back to normal. Those who are seriously ill can already stand up.”

Chu Qingzhi nodded. “It’s good to know.”

Tang Jinghong pursed his lips slightly and said, “By the way, do you still remember Fang Zerong? He wants to see you.”

Chu Qingzhi asked, “Why does he want to see me?”

Tang Jinghong said bluntly, “He admires your medical skills so much that he wants to acknowledge you as his shifu.”

Chu Qingzhi didn’t believe him. “I don’t think so. He’s probably doubting my medical skills.”

Tang Jinghong thought to himself. It seemed that the little girl didn’t have a good impression of Fang Zerong. “He didn’t know you at first, but now that he does, his admiration for you is like the endless sea.”

Chu Qingzhi smiled. “You’re exaggerating.”

Tang Jinghong’s voice was low. “Then do you want to see him? When I left the military camp, he reminded me to ask you a few times.”

Chu Qingzhi waved her hand and rejected him. “I’m not free recently. I have to go to the county office tomorrow and open a clothing shop after that.”

Was this little girl an all-rounder? Tang Jinghong was surprised. “Opening a clothing shop?”

Chu Qingzhi nodded. “I’m opening it with someone else. After I get everything on track, I’ll hand the shop to my Second Sister. Second Sister is very talented in making clothes.”

Tang Jinghong admired Chu Qingzhi even more. “There’s no better sister in the world than you.”

Chu Qingzhi admitted it without any modesty, “Of course.”

This little girl was also very arrogant!
