The other horse also had a name called “Hou Fu”, which meant that one would definitely be blessed after surviving a disaster.

Fu Fu could already stand up. When it saw Chu Qingzhi, it trotted over.

Chu Qingzhi touched the two horses gently. Then she took out a five-colored thread. “Jinghong, extend your hand. I’ll put it on for you.”

The five-colored thread was mainly used to pray for blessings and ward off evil spirits.

It also had a nice name—Longevity Thread.

Tang Jinghong glanced at the colorful thread on Chu Qingzhi’s wrist and stretched out his hand for Chu Qingzhi to put it on for him.

However, his gaze secretly landed on Chu Qingzhi’s eyelashes.

Chu Qingzhi’s eyelashes were long and curled. They fluttered gently and were very beautiful.

He felt like his heart was tickled by those fluttering eyelashes. His heart felt itchy, and it was throbbing uncontrollably.

At this moment, he really wanted to hug the girl in front of him.

He called out softly, “Qingzhi…”

Chu Qingzhi looked up. Her fair face faced the sunlight and one could see her fine hair. “What’s wrong?”

Tang Jinghong clenched his fists. He swore that tonight, he would definitely express his feelings to the girl in front of him, but at this moment, he only said, “Nothing.”

However, Chu Qingzhi was suddenly in the mood to tease him. “Jinghong, let me ask you a question.”

Tang Jinghong was a little curious. “What is it?”

Chu Qingzhi touched her face and deliberately leaned closer to Tang Jinghong. They were only a foot away. “Do you think I’m beautiful?”

The young girl’s nice smell assaulted his nose. Tang Jinghong looked at Chu Qingzhi’s clear eyes in a daze. He said sincerely, “Beautiful.”

In his heart, she was the most beautiful.

Chu Qingzhi revealed a shyness that only young girls had. She cupped her face and asked, “How beautiful am 1?”

Tang Jinghong looked around and saw a bright sunflower. He walked over and picked it. “It’s as beautiful as this sunflower.” As he spoke, he inserted the sunflower into Chu Qingzhi’s bun.

Chu Qingzhi blushed for the first time. Her face turned slightly red. The pink color made her skin look tender and even more tempting.

When Tang Jinghong saw Chu Qingzhi like this, he couldn’t help but be tempted. Not only was Chu Qingzhi beautiful, but she was also very cute.

The atmosphere became more and more lovey-dovey. Even the two horses seemed to sense it and turned their faces away.

After a while, Chu Qingzhi stopped joking around. “1 called you here for something serious.” She turned around and looked at the two horses.

Tang Jinghong turned his head slightly. “What is it?”

Chu Qingzhi handed a piece of paper to Tang Jinghong. “Take a look. Do you like this layout?”

Tang Jinghong unfolded the paper. On it was the design of the house. Previously, Tang Jinghong had asked Chu Qingzhi to help him design it.

It was a two-story bungalow with a small courtyard in front. It was unique and beautiful.

Tang Jinghong liked it at a glance. He thought for a moment and asked Chu Qingzhi, “Do you like this house?”

Chu Qingzhi blurted out, “I designed it, so of course I like it.”

A trace of joy flashed across Tang Jinghong’s eyes. “When will your house be built?”

“According to the current progress…” Chu Qingzhi calculated in her heart. “It’ll probably take another two months.”

Tang Jinghong thought for a moment and said, “Then you can start building my house after your house is built?”

Chu Qingzhi said, “There’s no need to wait. If you want to build it, I can get people to start doing the ground work immediately.”

Tang Jinghong looked at Chu Qingzhi. “Then where do you think I should build the house?”

Chu Qingzhi thought about the layout of the village. “There’s a place beside the wasteland that’s backed by a mountain and has good feng shui. You can consider it, but the problem is that the land belongs to someone else.”

“I can buy it,” Tang Jinghong said straightforwardly. “Bring me to take a look. If it’s suitable, I’ll talk to the land owner after the Dragon Boat Festival.”

Chu Qingzhi said, “Alright, let’s go.”

After informing her family, Chu Qingzhi brought Tang Jinghong out.

The entire village was busy celebrating the Dragon Boat Festival at home. There was no one outside, but fragrance wafted out of the houses. The festive atmosphere was very strong.

Today, the construction workers were also on leave. The wasteland was relatively quiet. There was a rectangular piece of land beside it that was planted with sorghum. The sorghum was as tall as half a person, but because of the lack of water, the leaves were curled up and the plants were turning yellow.

Chu Qingzhi pointed. “It’s that sorghum field.”

Tang Jinghong looked up. The sorghum in the field had already dried. Even if it rained now, the harvest would not be good. He could try to negotiate the purchase with the landowner. “I’ve made up my mind. I’ll build a house here.”

Chu Qingzhi joked, “Sure. In the future, we’ll be neighbors. You can come over to my house to eat everyday.”

Tang Jinghong laughed. “That’s a good idea.”

Chu Qingshuang had just returned from sending her master a gift. When she saw two figures on the wasteland, she walked over. “Fifth Sister, Brother Jinghong, what are you doing here?”

Chu Qingzhi said, “Jinghong wants to build a house here, so 1 brought him over to take a look.”

Chu Qingshuang’s round cat eyes immediately widened. “Then, does that mean we are going to be neighbors in the future?”

Tang Jinghong smiled and said, “Yes, am I welcome?”

Chu Qingshuang quite liked Tang Jinghong, but she only treated him as a big brother. She felt that Tang Jinghong was especially reliable. “Welcome, welcome. That way, we can take care of each other.”

Tang Jinghong said, “I still have to talk to the land owner. Let’s go back first.”

“Okay.” Chu Qingshuang walked over and held Chu Qingzhi’s wrist. They returned home together.

Upon returning home, they saw many villagers gathered at their house.

Third Uncle took the lead. “Your family has helped the village a lot. This is everyone’s token of appreciation. Don’t reject it.”

Grandpa Chu stood in front of the villagers happily and felt proud. “Thank you, everyone.”

Third Uncle took the lead and placed a chicken in his hand in the central room. The chicken was tied up and could not escape. “I have to go back. There are still things to do at home.”

The villagers placed their things in the central room and bade farewell.

After everyone left, Chu Qingzhi looked around curiously. There were people who sent crispy peanuts, fried chicken drumsticks, and fried crispy meat. There were simply all kinds of food.

She took a piece of fried crispy meat and tasted it. It was crunchy and delicious. “Grandpa, this is not bad.”

Grandpa Chu immediately handed the plate to Chu Qingzhi and said dotingly, “If you like it, you can eat it all..”
