C7 They finally left the palace, but that person had hurt my heart!

She didn't know what to say, but she could say whatever she wanted to say.

"Hey, long time no see, Miss!" Zhu Rong took off the gloves on his hands and smiled at Chu Linlang. "Miss, are you here to buy pig head meat?"

Chu Linlang nodded like a tadpole. Heavens, this person actually recognized her. He had sold so many pig head meat in a day, yet he still recognized her.

Chu Linlang was extremely happy. She nodded and agreed to come buy pig head meat.

Zhu Rong handed the cut pig head meat to Chu Linlang and said, "Miss, take it well. I'll close the stall now. I've cut half a pound for you!"

Chu Linlang was happy when she heard that. This person had met her by chance. The first time, he gave her pig head meat, and the second time, he gave her half a pound.

Was there something fishy about this?

Chu Linlang held the pig head meat in her hand. Seeing Zhu Rong packing up the stall, she didn't ask the reason and actually followed Zhu Rong.

"Miss, you're on the way to my house!" It was still early to close the stall, but the pig head meat was sold out.

Zhu Rong walked forward and saw Chu Linlang walking the same path as him. He slowed down his pace and chatted with Chu Linlang.

"Uh, yes." Chu Linlang nodded happily.

This man's mouth was so good that it seemed to have changed a lot. Now, he could speak fluently, so Chu Linlang couldn't say anything.

A month could change a lot.

"Hey, did you hear that?" Zhu Rong asked as he carried his family's belongings and walked forward.

"What did I hear?" Chu Linlang naturally did not know anything about his sudden question.

"There are rumors on the streets that countless men in the current Imperial Palace of the Empress have come to satisfy the Empress Dowager's loneliness." Zhu Rong sighed, "Our Emperor is really filial!"

"Uh…" Chu Linlang was speechless. She did not know what to say to such a question.

Damn it, how could the people outside the palace know about the matters in the palace?

If I let him catch me, I won't be able to forgive him.

"I heard that the Empress Dowager is now full of charm and alluring. The people below all say that they can hear the sounds coming from the Empress Dowager's Ritual Hall every night."

This man…

Chu Linlang really did not know what to say to him. She had missed him for so long, but this man's thoughts were actually like this.

Furthermore, she was a woman. Saying such a thing in front of her was really letting him miss her for so long.

"Uh…" Chu Linlang really wanted to go up and tear this man's mouth apart.

As the two of them chatted along the way, Chu Linlang felt that this man was not good. It seemed that she could not trust her first glance. At that time, she felt that he was good, but they might not be good together.

"Ah, Miss, I'm almost home. Why don't you come to my house?"

Chu Linlang would have definitely agreed if it was in the past. She was extremely happy in her heart, but now, she waved her hand and said, "Uh, I'm not going. I'm almost home too."

She found a fork in the road and ran away.

Chu Linlang shouted towards the sky.

Ahh!

Her dog eyes were really looking at the wrong man!

His thoughts and feelings were destroyed before they could even be talked about.

At this moment, Chu Linlang didn't have any thoughts at all.

She walked back aimlessly. After walking for an unknown amount of time, she finally returned to the bustling city. As for where she was, Chu Linlang didn't know.

She only knew that this was not the bustling city from before. There were more people here. The few streets in the capital were filled with small businesses. Ordinary people would do small businesses on the streets to support their families.

She didn't have the mood to stroll around with money in her pocket. Chu Linlang's heart was hurt by Zhu Rong!

Finally, she opened her heart and met a man she liked. He was actually such a disrespectful guy.

The heavens were really blind! She was destined to be a widow!

A widow had to abide by her own rules.

Chu Linlang walked on the street aimlessly. When she met a beggar, she gave them all the money in her pocket. However, Chu Linlang was smarter this time. She didn't give all the money to the children. At least it was not noon yet. It was better to save some money for food.

This street was really lively! Chu Linlang sighed with emotion as she walked. Everyone was envious of the palace and felt that it was a good place.

Little did they know that once they entered the palace, they would lose their freedom. Even if they were in a high position, those rules would always restrict you, making you unable to stop.

Even she, the current empress dowager, was helpless. Apart from being a widow, she was a widow.

"Doudou! Doudou! Fresh hot doudou!" A child's voice shouted.

Chu Linlang was quite envious when she heard this voice. She relied on her own hands to work hard to earn money. The money she earned was not enough, but there was a smile on their faces.

Chu Linlang touched her stomach. Although she was not very hungry, she liked to eat doudou the most. Last time, she even specially ate a bowl of doudou when she left the palace.

When she raised her head to look at the stall, she saw that there were only a few children operating it. Chu Linlang's lips slightly rose as she said, "Give me a bowl of doudou!"

One of the children saw a customer and hurriedly called out, "Big sister, please take a seat. I'll fill it up for you now!"

The child was innocent and cute as she said.

"Huh? Big sister, have we met before?" The girl raised her head and looked at Chu Linlang as she spoke. She looked at the boy beside her and asked, "Brother, do you recognize this sister?"

"Little sister, go and fill the bowl of bean curd first. Don't let this sister wait too long!" The boy was a few years older than the smart girl, and the two of them were also twelve or thirteen years old.

Chu Linlang was watching the stall on the bench, busying herself with greeting the customers. The people who were cleaning the bowls and chopsticks were all children around the age of eleven or twelve. There were four people in total.

There were two boys and one girl. Hearing the girl say that she knew him, Chu Linlang took a few more careful glances at the three children. There was really no impression in her mind.

I don't know them! I've never seen them before!

The girl scooped up the bowl of bean curd and placed it in front of Chu Linlang. She exclaimed, "Sister, I've really seen you before!"

"Hehe, where have I seen you before?" The girl had two small bunches of hair on her head. Her skin was white and clean, and her round little face was very cute. There were two dimples on the corner of her mouth.

"I remember now. Sister, you are the sister who gave me and my brother the silver last time!" The girl exclaimed in surprise. When she heard Huahua call out to her, the two children who were busy working at the side put down their work and hurried over.

"That's right! That's the sister!" The three children exclaimed in surprise, which made Chu Linlang very confused.

She closed her eyes and tried to recall, but there was no impression at all.

"We're back!" Chu Linlang closed her eyes and heard a deep voice.

"Huahua, don't surround this big sister! This big sister wants to eat!" One of them said.

Chu Linlang looked at the man in front of her in disbelief. Just now, Zhu Rong said that he would go home, but now he actually came to this bean paste stall.

He skillfully scooped up the rice and put it into a small bowl before putting it back into the rice box.

Chu Linlang looked at him in surprise. This man really did not understand him. Just now, he sold pig's head meat and came back home. In the blink of an eye, he came to sell bean paste.

This man really had a lot of ways to earn money!

Zhu Rong had recently opened a bean paste stall. It was a small business, but the business was very good. In addition, he had a lot of helpers, so the people on the street all did small business. They often bought things on the street for their own businesses.

Zhu Rong ordered Huahua and the others to send food over to them when the time came for lunch. This was the first time they had sent food, so although their bean paste stall had only been opened for less than a month, the business was very good.

"Brother Yu, do you know this big sister?" Huahua asked again.

This boy had just come back from the outside. He was the same age as Huahua, but he was six months older.

Little Yu only glanced at Chu Linlang and exclaimed, "Big sister, why don't you know us? If you didn't help us last time, we begging children wouldn't have started a bean paste shop with Brother Zhu!"

Chu Linlang stared at Xiao Yu for a long time before she remembered that the last time she came out of the palace, she met a few begging children on the street and gave all her money to them.

However, she didn't expect that these children really had some ideas.

"Then is this the bean paste shop you opened?" Chu Linlang pointed at the facilities around her.

It was just a simple bean paste shop, but it had a lot of facilities. Furnace, stove, bowls, chopsticks, and stools. It was not easy to open a small shop.

Huahua pulled Zhu Rong who was filling the rice, "No, it's this brother who helped us, sister!"

Zhu Rong smiled at Chu Linlang and said, "Girl, hello!" After saying that, he stood there blankly without moving.

He was a simple and honest person.

Chu Linlang didn't really understand why Zhu Rong had changed so much after just meeting him.

The flippant tongue just now was completely different from the honest and honest one now.

Xiao Yu took over and said, "That day, we were extremely hungry, so we came out to beg. Coincidentally, we met Brother Zhu, so he gave us a jin of pig head meat."

It seemed that this person sold pig head meat. He gave pig head meat to anyone he met!

Chu Linlang had a very bad opinion of Zhu Rong. Seeing him standing there without saying anything and ignoring Zhu Rong, she said to Huahua and Xiao Yu, "What happened after that?"

“Later on, we got to know Brother Zhu. He said that he wanted to open a shop, so we took out the money we had given to him a few days ago and opened a shop together!”
