Chapter 363 Feng Gu Qiu

Chu Ci looked at them with a firm gaze and said in a soft and affirmative tone, "Yes."

After getting a positive answer, the Ergous became even more excited. Their joy was beyond words like a flood that broke through a dam. Their faces turned red with excitement and they immediately prepared to kneel down to salute Chu Ci.

It was at this time that Chu Ci slowly said, "But what Ganniang Yang didn't say is that the Charity Bureau will not support you unconditionally."

"There is no such thing as something that comes without hard work in this world. At most I will raise you until you are fifteen years old. After that, you will have to fend for yourself."

"I hope you can understand that you have to walk your own path in life in the end."

Hearing this, Ergouzi and the others did not feel the slightest bit disappointed. Instead, they breathed a sigh of relief as if a heavy burden had been lifted from their shoulders.

Then they straightened their spines and said loudly: "Yes, we understand. We will not eat free rice."

They are all good kids. Chu Ci said earnestly, "During your time at the Charity Bureau, you must study hard, learn how to survive, and how to be a good person, so that you can gain a foothold in this world after you leave the Charity Bureau. Whether it's farming or handicrafts, as long as you study hard, you can always find a way to make a living."

Do they still have the opportunity to learn a craft?

Ergouzi and the others looked at each other, tears in their eyes, quivering lips and shaking voices, as if they were in a dream, unable to believe this sudden and dreamlike beauty.

Their eyes, filled with desire and surprise, were mixed with deep disbelief, as if they were afraid that this was just a fleeting illusion.

Until I heard Chu Ci announce in front of everyone: "Madame Zhang, Ganniang Yang, the weather has been cold recently and the child has been freezing for a long time. You should quickly buy some thick and warm cotton clothes and soft and comfortable mattresses to keep the child warm through the winter."

At this time, Er Gouzi finally couldn't help but pinched himself hard. He grimaced in pain and murmured, "It's real. We are not dreaming."

Chu Ci couldn't help laughing when she saw Er Gouzi's behavior. Then she walked to Yang Gan Niang's side and said, "Is that child Er Gouzi? What is he doing? Isn't he in pain?"

Ganniang Yang also started laughing, and the wrinkles at the corners of her eyes deepened a little, but before she could reply,

Yang Xing could not wait to raise his hand, his face filled with excitement, and he said loudly: "My Lady Princess, I know that Er Gouzi is happy. He has never encountered such a good thing before, and he dare not believe that this is all true, so he pinched himself to confirm it. It's not that he is not afraid of pain, but he is too afraid that this is all just an illusory dream."

Yang Xing finished speaking in one breath, his eyes sparkling with excitement, as if he also felt the same surprise and disbelief as Ergouzi.

Yang Ganniang didn't expect Yang Xing to be so honest. He poured out all his thoughts at once. She quickly said, "This silly child is so happy that he is silly. He is not so noisy on weekdays. He is too excited today. I hope the princess will not mind."

As Ganniang Yang spoke, she looked at Chu Ci with a slightly apologetic look, a flattering smile on her face, and her hands unconsciously rubbed the corners of her clothes.

Chu Ci smiled lightly, "You're stupid now. Will you be stupid again in the future?" There was a hint of teasing in her eyes, but no malice.

Chu Ci stopped smiling and continued, "Since Ganniang Yang knows the children well and the children trust you, you should stay and take care of their food and clothing before the charity bureau is established, right?"

"Well, can you read? If not, I'll send you another accountant."

"After all, this is about managing the children's food, clothing and daily expenses, and all expenses must be clearly accounted for."

"Although I want to help, I also have to be clear and use all my kindness on the children." Chu Ci looked at Yang Ganniang with sincere and firm eyes, waiting for her answer.

When Yang Ganniang heard Chu Ci's words, she was stunned at first, her eyes full of astonishment, as if she had not expected to be entrusted with such an important task.

Then she was so excited that her hands were shaking, and her lips were trembling as she said, "I can't read. I usually only do needlework and housework. I don't know anything about accounts. Please send a gentleman over. I will take good care of the children and live up to the princess' kindness. I will be careful in everything and follow the gentleman's arrangements. I dare not make the slightest mistake."

But no matter how much Yang Ganniang thought about it, she just couldn't figure it out that the accountant mentioned by Chu Ci was actually a "fairy" who seemed to be out of this world.

The moment Ganniang Yang saw the accountant, she seemed to be under a spell and was stunned.

Her eyes widened, her mouth slightly open, and her face was full of disbelief.

She originally thought that the accountant would be a middle-aged man wearing a dark gown, with a serious and rigid expression and a goatee, holding an abacus in one hand and an account book in the other, muttering some account numbers.

But he never expected that the woman who appeared before him was such a fairy.

After a long while, Yang Ganniang said stupidly, "How could such a person come here to be an accountant?"

Her voice was full of doubt and confusion. As she spoke, she couldn't help rubbing her eyes, fearing that she was seeing things.

Until a sound like a silver bell sounded. "Princess, I won this bet. Today, the meat in your kitchen belongs to me!"

Only then did Ganniang Yang realize that Chu Ci was also standing behind the "accountant".

Yang Ganniang was stunned at first, then her eyes widened, her face full of surprise. She opened her mouth, as if she wanted to say something, but she didn't know where to start.

After a long while, he stammered, "Princess...Princess, how...you..."

Chu Ci is also speechless, okay?

Originally, Feng Guqiu had been silent in the carriage all the way, not saying a word and not communicating with her.

Chu Ci originally thought that he was a dull and boring person who was corrupted by the nanny, but he didn't expect that she could be wrong sometimes. This guy is simply a naughty boy!

Fortunately, Chu Ci was thick-skinned enough and pretended not to understand Yang Ganniang's confusion.

She calmly introduced, "This Miss Feng is the accountant that this princess found for you."

"Well, of course, if you have any questions about other things, you can also ask her directly. Miss Feng is a real daughter of a wealthy family, and she will definitely be able to lend you a helping hand."

Chu Ci began to praise Feng Guqiu.

Feng Guqiu's teeth ached from the praise, and she couldn't bear it any longer, so she said directly: "Princess, do you want someone to send the meat from the kitchen, or should I take Aunt Yang to get it?"

Is Chu Ci the kind of person who cares about that little bit of meat?

"Just as Ganniang Yang is here, go to the kitchen and get some! If it's not enough, ask someone to buy more. This princess will not skimp on such trivial matters, and will make sure everyone is satisfied with the meal."
