After crossing, I was forced to hold on to my thighs and build a kingdom

After Huizhen's grandfather and father had breakfast, they went to the blacksmith shop at the village entrance to work.

Huizhen's mother was busy in the kitchen again. At this time, only the brothers Weiyuan and Wei Yue were reading in the main room.

Seeing his sister leading Jinchu and Zhaoer in, Wei Yue from the west room also came out and greeted them with a smile: "Hello, sister Jiner and brother Zhaoer!"

"Brother Yue, did we disturb you from studying with your elder brother?" Jin Chu asked with a smile.

Seeing the fresh ink marks on Wei Yue's cuffs, Jin Chuxin understood that the child must have been studying just now!

Wang Weiyue swung his sleeves loudly, unconcerned. "Big Brother had just finished telling me 'Everyone has a heart that cannot bear to see others suffer,' and was about to sit down to have a cup of tea and rest when I heard your voices."

He stretched out his hand and pinched Zhao'er's little face: "It's better to come at the right time than to come early. It's a good time for us to take a break together. Right, little Zhao'er?" After saying that, he grabbed a few dates and stuffed them into Zhao'er's hand, motioning him to eat them.

Zhao'er cast a questioning look at her sister, and Jinchu nodded slightly.

The little guy then happily took the dates from Wei Yue's hand and started eating them.

Perhaps because he was more relaxed after returning home, Wang Weiyuan was only wearing a loose, half-worn cotton robe today. He looked lazy and his movements were casual. Only the sudden look he cast at him revealed a hint of sharpness.

Jin Chu saw the opportunity and said with a smile, "After hearing Brother Wang's permission the other day, I couldn't wait to bring Zhao'er to your house to seek advice! Since Brother Wang's time at home is limited, Jin'er didn't want to delay any longer, so she just shamelessly came."

"Sister Jin'er, you don't have to be so polite. As the saying goes, 'Time is money'. I thought you would come to my house yesterday!" Wang Weiyuan met Jin Chu's gaze and smiled faintly.

"Although 'time is money,' learning is a long-term project that accumulates over time. Without a firm goal and unwavering perseverance, even if you give it plenty of time, it will just be wasted."

At this point, Jin Chu paused and looked at Wang Weiyuan with a teasing look in her eyes, her tone becoming more relaxed. "Besides, big brother, you only got home at dusk the day before yesterday. We should at least let you rest for a day. Otherwise, wouldn't it seem that we, my sister and I, are too eager for quick success and too unkind?"

"So it's my fault?" Facing Jin Chu's teasing, Wang Weiyuan raised his eyebrows and smiled.

"Alas! Wang Jia Dalang, who always criticized me to pieces in the past, has now been defeated by Jin'er's sharp tongue. Haha, it really is true that fortune turns around, and karma works!"

Huizhen, who was standing by, interrupted with a smile and even gave Jinchu a pretentious bow at the end, "Thank you, Miss Jin'er. Today I am able to see that my good brother, who never wants to be outdone, can lower himself on his own initiative!"

Knowing that the brother and sister were joking around, Jinchu pretended to be frightened and complained, "Huizhen, don't try to trick me! I was just teasing you, but you were being derogatory. Although my eldest brother is kind, if you really feel resentful about this, then it's all your fault!"

"Hey! I was originally speaking up for you, but you, a bad girl, actually turned against me! It turns out that I'm the one who got hurt by the two of you talking. My good intentions have really been wasted!"

Huizhen pretended to be aggrieved, looked at her brother who was smiling faintly and saying nothing, then turned to Jinchu who was smiling slightly, with a sly smile in her eyes, and whispered, "Are you feeling sorry for me now?"

Jin Chu blushed and quickly glanced at Wang Weiyuan opposite her, only to see that his expression remained unchanged, he just lowered his head and played with the date in his hand.

It seems that he didn't hear Huizhen's teasing just now!

Jinchu felt relieved, rolled his eyes at Huizhen, pulled her over and whispered, "You crazy girl, you dare to say anything you want, be careful your brother hears! If he misunderstands, my Zhaoer will be without a husband in the future, and I will be very angry with you!"

After saying that, he twisted Huizhen's arm in a real and fake way.

After being admonished and pinched by Jinchu, Huizhen now realized that her joke had gone a bit too far. She glanced at her brother who seemed to be indifferent across from her with a guilty look, then leaned over and whispered uncertainly to Jinchu: "He probably didn't hear it, right? If he did hear it, with my brother's temper, he would definitely not let me go. But look, he's quiet now..."

Jin Chu followed Huizhen's gaze and glanced at Wang Weiyuan again, still not forgetting to criticize Huizhen: "You should be more careful with your words in the future. Although your brother is outstanding, I treat your brother just like you treat him. The affection is only brother and sister, not a romantic one."

Huizhen had once enthusiastically promoted her brother to her. Jinchu knew that Huizhen had good intentions, but she was a modern adult at heart after all, and she did not have the urgent feeling that a woman must get married when she reached marriageable age.

At present, her biggest thought is to lay a good foundation for Zhao'er, move out of the Sun family's troubled place after the New Year, and then find a good husband for Zhao'er. She can also do some business to support her family. She does not seek to be rich, but she will be satisfied with a small fortune.

Although she now has 500 taels of silver in her hand, if she does not work, it will be gone one day.

Although this silver was a thank-you gift from the man in black, Jin Chu privately did not want to rely on others for support to make a living.

She had taken the silver note out of helplessness due to the pressure of survival. If she could really earn money with her own ability in the future and had the chance to meet the man in black again, she would still like to return the five hundred taels of silver note, which was once a timely help, to its original owner.

This way, both parties are clear!

While thinking, Jin Chu looked at the man sitting quietly opposite him.

With an upright figure and clear eyes, he is indeed a rare and good man.

But no matter how good it is, it has nothing to do with her!

Such a good boy who is raised by the whole family must be matched with a gentle and virtuous lady in the future. Even if she is not wealthy, she must at least come from a clean family.

Although Jin Chu didn't know the original owner's life experience in detail, he knew a little about it.

Considering the original owner's arrogant character, complicated family background, young and ignorant younger brother, and older brother who left without a trace, this family is by no means simple, and is a long way from being innocent.

Everyone loves beauty, and Jin Chu is no exception, but she is also a pragmatic person.

At present, Jin Chu doesn’t want to have a relationship and can’t afford it. She just wants to make money as soon as possible to live a good life and lead her younger brother to a well-off life.

In the future, when I have more free time and more money, if I meet a suitable man again, it will not be too late to talk about love then.

After thinking about this, the look in Jin Chu's eyes gradually became serious.

Wang Weiyuan glanced at Jinchu, who had suddenly become a little distant, and then glanced at Zhaoer, who had finished eating the dates and drank two cups of hot water. Finally, he spoke: "Huizhen, take Jiner to your room! I'll take Zhaoer and Yuedi to review their lessons."

After saying this, he didn't even glance at the two of them and went straight into the study room.

"Zhao'er, let's go!" Wei Yue took Zhao'er's hand and followed him in.

"Why do I feel like my brother seems a little angry?" Huizhen frowned and muttered as she looked at Wang Weiyuan's figure.

Jin Chu also vaguely felt that Wang Weiyuan was not happy, but she was too lazy to guess why. So she comforted him, "Maybe it's your illusion!"

After saying that, he took Huizhen's hand and urged her, "They have already started reviewing. Please take me to your room so that we don't disturb them from studying."

Huizhen nodded, no longer worrying about her brother's mood changes, and took Jinchu into her room.
