The beauty of the lady

Chapter 26
"I hope so." Mrs. Zhao sighed lightly, comforting herself with these words in her heart. Originally, she thought that Meier was very much like her husband, but who knew it was completely different from what she thought. Soothe a layer of worry.

She is not a woman from a small family, but the first daughter of the Dayan Dynasty's hairpin family.Ten years ago, when the new emperor came to the throne, those former humerus families were suppressed one after another. In order to get rid of the predicament, she was pushed to the front by the family, because she was unwilling to be randomly assigned to marry her. , Naihe is a mentally disturbed and violent person, how can she be willing to marry.

Later, after a series of arrangements, she finally escaped, and under the arrangement of the nanny, she personally chose Wednesday Zhuang to marry.

She also told Zhou Mei to him not long after giving birth. I thought he would feel uncomfortable or even scared, but who knew that he treated her better.

But she doesn't plan to tell her daughter about this in a short time. After all, she is still young. Although she seems to have grown a lot since the incident a few years ago, she is still just a child after all.

Thinking that I have a little strength in the past few days, and my husband and daughter Chu will go to Fucheng in the future, and then I will make a decent set of clothes for my daughter. Although I can't buy better materials at home, I can't wear patched ones. clothes.

When she ran away from home many years ago, she carried money on her body, but she was a young lady and had never been out of the capital. Later, when she encountered robbers, if the nanny hadn't cleaned her up in advance, maybe even she would have died.

Later, when he came to Yuzhou Mansion, there was only one silver hairpin left on him, which was snatched by Mrs. Zhu.

If Fan Fan had some money, their family wouldn't be in such a difficult situation.

The next day, after Zhou Mei's family finished breakfast, Wednesday Zhuang went to Zhou Yuzhu's house, and Mrs. Zhao asked Zhou Mei to fetch the floral cloth brought back by Wednesday Zhuang, measured her daughter's size, and began to make clothes for her.

"Mom, you're not in good health, so you don't have to do it for me. I'll just wear this one for the New Year." Zhou Mei raised her hand to caress Zhou Tang's greasy little face, and looked at that although her face was still pale, she also had a smile on her face. The happy Zhao said.

Mrs. Zhao raised her eyes and glanced at her daughter, "It's just making a dress, and it's not too tiring. This time, it's just a matter of cutting it out. When my mother is better, I'll make you a shirt with flowers and smoke. A piece of clothing costs tens of taels of silver in some good silk and satin shops, and you are still young, so you must look good in your clothes."

"Then we have to wait until we have money." Zhou Mei chuckled, "I don't know if it will work this time, so don't hold out too much hope, but the money for mother's medical treatment must be fine. "

The best restaurant in the town can only earn more than 1000 taels a year, but in Fucheng, it costs 5000 taels a year. Zhou Mei is still very confident about 200 taels, but renting a shop in Fucheng is better. There are also about 30 to [-] taels per month. They just open a simple shop and rent a common location. It is too noisy and inconvenient for Mrs. Zhao to rest.

In a blink of an eye, it was the tenth day of the lunar new year, and the farmer's family had already finished what their relatives were supposed to do, and the rest of the time began to sit around, chatting and joking, waiting for the spring to start farming.

Early this morning, Zhou Yuzhu's family came over. Seeing Zhou Mei and Wednesday Zhuang in new clothes, Zhou Yuzhu said, "Are you all ready?"

"Okay, let's go now." Zhou Zhuang nodded.

In the room, Zhou Mei said to Lu Chunhua: "Aunt Hua, my mother will trouble you to take care of us during the two days we are not at home. If there is anything you don't understand, just ask my mother. I will discuss everything with my mother."

Lu Chunhua nodded with a smile and said, "Don't worry, my aunt is here, you are not at ease, I promise to wait for you to come back, so that your mother will gain weight."

Over there, Mrs. Zhao stretched out her hand to straighten her daughter's hair, and said with a smile, "You don't know how to comb your hair either, so what should you do if you're away from home?"

"It's okay, just keep it simple, anyway, I'm still young, so I don't pay much attention to it."

She knows ponytails and braids. For an eight-year-old child, braids are enough.

Then Mrs. Zhao gave some more detailed instructions, and then sat on the edge of the kang, opened the window and watched their father and daughter get on the donkey cart and leave.

Lu Chunhua poured her a bowl of hot water, and comforted her: "Don't worry, their father and daughter will be fine. Isn't Zhuzi also taking care of them beside them?"

"Well, it's just that Mei'er has never left my side since she was a child. This time, she will go to Fucheng a hundred miles away. If it weren't for my illness, she wouldn't have to go outside at a young age."

"You can't say that. What's wrong with being a daughter who loves her mother? Don't think too much about it. Anyway, it's just a few days. After you sleep a little, sister Mei will come back. Besides, the field is not busy now, I am here all day, do you still worry about no one talking to you?"

"Then I'll trouble sister-in-law." Mrs. Zhao said with a gentle smile.

"No trouble, you're being polite."

Zhoujiazhuang is [-] or [-] miles away from Yuzhou Prefecture. If you hurry up, you can leave in the morning and arrive in the evening, and they are indeed in a hurry, not to mention spending extra money for accommodation. They are not delicate people anyway. , even if it takes a little more time, it will be time to close the city gate in Fucheng.

As the scenery on both sides continued to pass by, the desolate trees around and the green wheat fields in the distance gave Zhou Mei a feeling of enlightenment.

She didn't know much about this dynasty, except that it was the Great Yan Dynasty, and Zhoujiazhuang was located in Yuzhou Prefecture, a nearby prefectural city far from the capital Yanjing.

I also know that the current emperor's surname is Ye, but I don't know anything else.

"His third uncle, are you going to Fucheng to stay for a few days?" Zhou Yuzhu asked.

"I thought it would be best to come back as soon as possible. If things are done well, I might be able to come back the next day, but Brother Dazhu, you don't have to wait for us. Don't you have to wait for the plowing and planting at home? We will be there by then." Hire a carriage from the city to go back, the child's mother is not in good health, if you come to Fucheng to see a doctor, you can't do without a carriage."

It's not that Zhou Yuzhu is ignorant of Zhao's illness, so naturally he didn't think about it elsewhere, and then nodded, "That's fine, I'll come back tomorrow, the family does have land to plow, so I have to go to her natal family to help first."

"Where is Aunt?" Zhuang asked on Wednesday.

The old Zhou's family naturally didn't need their third room, after all, there were the first room and the second room. It seemed that every year when the family was busy, the eldest aunt would go back.

Zhou Yuzhu was silent for a while, and then said: "I have to go to help."

Although they have been separated, as long as the old lady asks her to go back to help, no matter how busy the family is, he can't refuse. Fortunately, the father-in-law and mother-in-law understand their situation very well, but whenever there is a collision with the son-in-law's parents' home when farming, They will always stick to the son-in-law.
