Chapter 44
"That's right, it's okay if you don't come, but I don't know if the old godly woman is going to be talkative, and then don't hold back. Some people, the more you don't care about him, the more he will Jumping, it’s as annoying as it needs to be.” Lu Chunhua said with righteous indignation: “Your mother’s temperament is soft, so your grandma didn’t know how many times she endured it, and she endured it until the end. Don't say that my body is broken, look at you, eight-year-old child, you used to be like bean sprouts, you can't do that."

"Don't worry, Aunt Hua, I won't let others bully me, let alone my father."

"That's fine."

Afterwards, Chunqin came in, put two big bundles on the kang, Zhou Mei opened them, and said to Lu Chunhua, "Aunt Hua, we brought these back from the city, and they were all prepared by my mother, dim sum, bacon, All kinds of spices, fruits, and three pieces of cloth, Aunt Hua should take them back."

Seeing the three bolts of silk and the big burden of food, Lu Chunhua smiled happily.

"Look, you come back as soon as you come back, what are you going to do with so many things for us, what a waste of money."

"It's okay, Aunt Hua has taken good care of our family, but it's just a little thing, not worth much, I'll give it to Zhou Dun later."

"Okay, then Auntie will thank Sister Mei on behalf of that brat."

"fine!"

Lu Chunhua sat for a while, and then went home with her things, while Zhou Mei asked someone to put the quilt brought back from the city, and she fell asleep in the kang room.

The days are getting warmer and warmer, so the quilts brought back this time are all thin, and she is indeed very tired from the bumps in the carriage along the way.

At night, she was called up by Chunqin.

"Miss, it's time to get up and have dinner." Lu Chunhua helped Chunqin make dinner today. They came back today, and there was nothing to eat at home, so Lu Chunhua took things from home and made a dinner here .

In the evening, at the dining table in the kang room, Zhou Mei took Chunqin and Aunt Hua to eat on the kang, because there were few people coming back this time, so she didn't pay too much attention.

"How many days will you stay here this time?" Aunt Hua asked with a piece of fat in her mouth.

Zhou Mei swallowed the rice in her mouth, thought for a while and said, "Tomorrow is my grandfather's [-]th birthday. We will leave the day after tomorrow after celebrating his birthday. Shops in the city cannot do without people."

"That's it, you guys are too far, but fortunately there is a carriage, otherwise, I would be exhausted." Aunt Hua said with a sigh.

"It's okay, it's unavoidable. We'll come back during the holidays. If Aunt Hua is fine, uncle will take you to live in the city for a few days."

"That's a good relationship. I went to the city twice with your uncle before, and that was two years ago." Aunt Hua nodded with a smile.

After dinner, Aunt Hua took Zhou Dun back, not because she had nothing to say, but because she wanted Zhou Mei to rest more.

At night, Wednesday Zhuang and Zhang Bo slept in the big kang room, while Zhou Mei and Chunqin slept in the inner room.

When I opened my eyes in the morning, it was still gray outside, and Chunqin was no longer around, and outside the dilapidated door curtain, there was the crackling sound of firewood.

She got up and put on her clothes, and when she came out, Chunqin was washing vegetables beside her.

"Miss, you're up, the maidservant has already boiled hot water, let's wash up first." Seeing Zhou Mei coming out, Chunqin brought Zhou Mei the warm water that had already been placed.

Zhou Mei rolled up her sleeves and walked forward, putting her palms in the tub, "Why don't you sleep more, you don't have to wake up too early at home."

Chunqin giggled and said, "The servant girl is not too early, but the master and Zhang Bo got up early."

"Where did master go?" There was no voice in the room, are you not at home at this time?

"Master and Uncle Zhang went to town. They said they still need to buy some things. They left before dawn." Chunqin poured out Zhou Mei's washing water, waited for her to sit down, picked up a comb to comb her hair, "Before the master left, he asked the servant girl to tell the young lady that they will be back soon."

"Why didn't you buy something yesterday? It's so strange." Zhou Mei whispered.

"It seems that I heard that the old lady is ill. The master went out last night, and then went to the town to get medicine today. He also said that he wanted to buy some children's four treasures of the study. I heard that he would send them to the house." Chunqin replied with a smile. According to what Zhang Bo said, the master talked to him several times last night, and this morning too, for fear that he would forget it when he went to town.

Zhou Mei didn't take it seriously, that old lady was sick?Although I haven't met Mrs. Zhou directly when I came to this world, it shouldn't be a good one.

To be honest, from the top to the bottom of everyone in the upper house, no one is really good to their third house.

It stands to reason that in such a big family, there will always be someone who is different, and her father is still the youngest of the three brothers. Why does this make everyone dislike him? She doesn't think that the problem is all on Zhao's body.

In ancient times, the eldest son inherited the family business. Even if Zhou Dazhuang inherited the family business, according to common sense, in the hearts of the two old people, Wednesday Zhuang should be more popular than Tuesday Zhuang. Now it is really strange.

After tidying up, Zhou Mei and Chunqin were busy in the kitchen. After breakfast was ready, Wednesday Zhuang hadn't come back yet. Although there was a carriage, it took a little time in the town, and it took at least an hour to go back and forth.

Neither the master nor the servant waited for them. After eating breakfast by herself, Zhou Mei came to the main room and put all the things she brought back on the square table.

"Miss, do you want to bring these with you to celebrate your birthday today?" Chunqin actually admired her own lady very much in her heart. She didn't think much of it when she was in the city. Miss Shi's family still lives here, but this year they have rented a shop in the city and opened Zhou Ji's noodle shop, which is really too fast.

Zhou Mei looked at the things on the square table. There were two pieces of silk cloth, one in blue and one in Xiang color. These two pieces of cloth alone cost at least five taels of silver. There were also six packets of dim sum with different flavors, also from Fucheng. The best dim sum shop in the city, and ten catties of fat meat, which was bought in the town on Wednesday, plus the four treasures of the study, such as paper and pens, bought by Wednesday Zhuang later, just this pile, sent to celebrate his birthday There is no problem at all, but I don't know if it will attract red eyes, or it will be really troublesome.

"That's enough." She nodded.

By the time Wednesday Zhuang came back, it was already three quarters past.

After they sat down, Chunqin brought the food and asked them to use it briefly. Afterwards, Zhou Mei and Zhou Zhuang carried these things to the old Zhou's house, while Zhang Bo and Chunqin were left behind. At home, let them cook for themselves at noon, after all, it is somewhat garish to bring them back to servants after going out for a few months.
