Chapter 153
"Don't worry, your eldest daughter's marriage, my aunt will decide for her. Although it is a bit difficult, your son may tie Zhao Ruolan to the sedan chair even if he is tied. Now he is just waiting for the reply from the Su family. Zhao Ruolan is heartbroken. I love someone, but I don't like the Su family's monstrous wealth. I have sent people to Jiangbei for this news. I believe there will be news soon. By then, Zhao Ruolan's wish will definitely come true. You, mother, don't know how distressed you are Daughter, auntie can see that my aunt and grandma won't be wronged, you killed my grandmother back then, and now I use the fate and future of you and your four children to bury her with her."

Mrs. Sun couldn't bear to listen to the flat and gentle voice, every single word, and she was so out of breath that she passed out.

Not long after, Nanny Sun walked in with a medicine bowl, and saw Zhou Mei sitting quietly by the window, looking at Madam with a smile on her lips, letting tears from the corners of her eyes slide down.

Miss Biao is a good child, Madam has lost her sight after all, if she is unwilling to hurt such a beautiful woman, now Madam is still alive, it is all due to Miss Biao, I really hope Miss Biao can marry in the future A good family, a lifetime of peace and security.

"Miss Biao, the servant has brought the medicine." She said softly.

Zhou Mei turned her head and said with a smile: "Grandmother has already fallen asleep, so Mammy asked the servants to warm the medicine first, and then feed it after waking up."

"It doesn't matter if you fall asleep, it's hard for Madam these years. The eldest lady is ignorant, and the eldest son always makes the madam worry about it. It's rare to sleep well all day long. Had a good night's sleep."

"These are all as they should be. Who told me to be the grandson of my grandmother? Now that I am almost reaching my age, there is not much time to be filial. Theoretically speaking, the hardest one is Grandma Sun, who has served my grandmother for so many years. It really bothered you."

Grandma Sun waved her hands excitedly, and said eagerly: "Miss Biao, you are serious. Madam is the master of slaves. This is what slaves should do. Besides, slaves are madam's nanny. The slave once had a son, but he just gave birth to a son. He died of a high fever in less than three days, and then came to Miss, and stayed for nearly 40 years."

"It turns out that it is like this. It is also a blessing for my grandmother to have Grandma Sun by her side."

"Miss Cousin... praised." Being able to say this, Nanny Sun couldn't control the excitement in her heart, but she also felt that she was losing her composure when she shed tears, so she turned her back and wiped the corners of her eyes with her sleeves.

On the eighth day of the twelfth lunar month, every household cooks Laba porridge, and Hou Fu is no exception. Many fruits such as peanuts and lotus seeds in it are delicious and melt in the mouth. It is very delicious when boiled.

And this year, Anguo Gong's mansion also received Laba porridge from the palace. Although the one delivered to the mansion was already cold, it was a kind of gift and should not be wasted.

"Miss Biao, this is Laba porridge from the palace sent by the servants of the Duke of the country. He said that Miss Biao should also try it, so that she can be blessed."

Looking at the big bowl of Laba porridge in front of her, she was speechless. It was already completely cold, and even if it was reheated, it lost its original taste. It was really embarrassing.

Xia Qi stepped forward and gave the visitor a piece of broken silver, sent him out, and then came back.

"Miss, let me warm it up in the small kitchen, and then miss can eat some." Chunqin stepped forward and said.

Zhou Mei looked at the big bowl of sticky Laba porridge, and nodded helplessly, "Then it's good to fill half a bowl after it's hot, and distribute the rest to each courtyard, and let them have a bite too."

"Yes, maidservant understands."

After Chunqin went out, Xia Qi stepped forward and said, "Miss, you should eat more and get more blessings."

"Two mouthfuls are enough. I just finished lunch, so I can't fit it. Besides, if I eat this, I will be blessed, and there will be no wealthy families who have fallen."

Xia Qi shook his head helplessly: "Miss always has all kinds of reasons and excuses, obviously she just doesn't think it tastes good."

"This kind of thing can only be said in front of me, be careful to end up being disrespectful to the royal family." Zhou Mei reprimanded with a smile.

"Yes, the servant girl still understands this rule."

After Laba, the countdown to the New Year's Eve was counted down. On the morning of the tenth day of the Lunar New Year, the stewards from the outer courtyard came over.

"The servant has seen Miss Biao!"

"Guan Zhao, what's the matter?"

Manager Zhao smiled respectfully, and replied: "If you go back to Miss Biao, there is a man named Tang Zhongyuan outside asking to see Miss."

Upon hearing this, Zhou Mei knew what was going on, this year's caravan finally came back.

She stood up and said to Guanshi Zhao, "Please come in."

"Yes!"

Not long after, Tang Zhongyuan, with big shoulders and a shrewd face, walked in with six men, clasped his fists and said to Zhou Mei who was sitting on top, "I've seen Miss."

Zhou Mei hurriedly asked him to sit down and asked, "Master Tang, did it go well this time?"

Tang Zhongyuan smiled and nodded: "It's still very good. There are more exquisite objects than last time. I have already sent them to Wenyage. This time, when I go home, I will send them to Yuzhou Mansion by the way."

Saying that, send over the account of this time, "This is all the account of this caravan, I also sent it to the lady, as for the medicinal materials, I have already settled the account with Yongchuntang, because this time there are three small countries in the Western Regions. The war, so the caravan also took advantage of some convenience, many things received were nearly [-]% cheaper than before, although the return was a little late."

"It's okay, as long as you can come back safely, can Master Tang have lunch?" She asked with a smile.

"Not yet. Those dozens of people want to go home early to be with their wives and children. I'll explain to the young lady and I'm ready to go home."

"Not in a hurry!" Zhou Mei looked at the account and said slowly: "I look at the general account, this time we earned nearly ten thousand taels, and this is all thanks to everyone in Master Tang. Excluding your salary, this time everyone will earn more than 20 taels. Give 50 taels more, Master Tang [-] taels, and I will let someone rent Xiankeju in the evening, and you will have a meal there, and you can go home tomorrow, and you will continue to work hard next year."

"Since it is Miss' kindness, I will represent all the brothers under my command, thank you Miss."

"You deserve it." Zhou Mei nodded.

Later, Tang Zhongyuan ordered the six men to put down the things they brought. Among them were two horses of red satin and several pieces of brocade in various colors. Little things, everything makes people like it.

"Miss, these are all New Year's gifts for Miss. The price is not very expensive, but everything is very delicate. In addition, this is the satin that Miss said, and I also sent it to you by the way."

"Trouble master Tang. If you have nothing to do, go to Le Zhao and let you get the money. I won't send you off in person tomorrow. As usual, I will go back to the capital after the first lunar month next year, and get together with my family more. If the brothers in the hand want to get the fabric, we still have the old rules, and let their family members live well for a year according to the original price."
