Chapter 121 Mother Cui
Chapter 121 Madam Cui
After Zhao Yunlanwu woke up, she took out the souvenir given by Mrs. Wang again, confirmed the place written on the letter, and went to talk to Zhu Yue and Wu Yi.
"Sister-in-law, I'll accompany you!" Wu Yi said.
Zhao Yunlan: "No, I'll go by myself."
"I'll ask two servants to follow you, don't refuse. The carriage is ready, just wait outside." Zhu Yue arranged all this while Zhao Yunlan was taking advantage of the lunch break.
Zhao Yunlan smiled and said, "Then thank you sister Zhu. Brother and sister, you should accompany sister Zhu at home. I'll go and see it myself." After that, he walked out.
Zhao Yunlan looked at Zhu Yue who had two strong maids, and felt a sense of warmth in her heart, which reminded Zhao Yunlan that it was time to train her own personnel.
"Go to Sajin Lane." Zhao Yunlan got into the car and spoke, and the coachman drove the carriage and set off.
Along the way, Zhao Yunlan looked at the two maids sitting next to her and felt a little embarrassed not to speak.
"I don't know what your two names are?"
"I'm called Caiyue."
"I'm called Caixia."
"Well, this one is good. How old are you two?" Zhao Yunlan continued to ask.
"I'm seventeen years old."
"I'm eighteen years."
Zhao Yunlan nodded, and there was no need to chat, so she had to sit down. Fortunately, Zhu Yue was considerate and prepared a lot of snacks in the carriage. Zhao Yunlan was eating snacks to pass the time.
When a plate of pastries and a plate of dried fruit was about to finish, the carriage had stopped. Zhao Yunlan felt a little full, and a burp was about to pop out in her throat. Zhao Yunlan waited for the maids and the others to get out of the car before quietly burping out. After burping, she did not forget to pay attention to whether there were any pastries on her face.
Zhao Yunlan got out of the car and looked at the place in front of her, with some confusion and was about to ask for a question.
"Miss Zhao, the carriage in the alley ahead cannot be entered, so I'm sorry to get off the car and walk." The coachman explained.
Zhao Yunlan nodded and walked into the alley with Caiyue Caixia one after another. The golden alley was shining on the roof, and from a distance it looked like a layer of gold was laid.
The alleyway is not wide, but there are small stalls scattered and selling some vegetables and snacks.
Zhao Yunlan counted in along the houses in the alley, and the eighteenth room was where Madam Cui lived.
‘Knock, knock, knock, Caiyue stepped forward and knocked on the door.
The person who came was Madam Cui. Zhao Yunlan looked at the slightly fat grandma in front of her. Her face was covered with brown spots against the fine lines of time, and her eyes were still full of energy.
"Is this lady a problem?" asked Madam Cui.
"My surname is Zhao, and my husband's surname is Li. I want to invite Madam Cui to the mansion to be a tutor."
Madam Cui bowed and said respectfully with her head down, "Miss Zhao, please come in quickly. I'll let you come to this cheap place first."
Zhao Yunlan looked at the old woman in front of her and lowered her posture. Thinking that Mrs. Wang and Zhu Yue had talked about Madam Cui before, these two people would never lie to her for no reason, but now looking at the madam's attitude, I have to admire her!
"Miss Zhao, please sit down! I'll make a pot of tea for you."
Zhao Yunlan wanted to say that there was no need, but she thought that she had eaten so many pastries in the car just now and was still a little thirsty, so she stopped talking.
Madam Cui was doing things quickly, and the tea came up soon. Zhao Yunlan took a sip of the tea. It tasted pretty good, with a jasmine fragrance. She looked at the room carefully, it was neat and bright. She looked at it for a while but didn't wait for Madam Cui to speak again.
"Madam Cui, I just said it directly. This time I just want to come and invite you to Lijia Village..."
Before Zhao Yunlan finished speaking, Madam Cui said, "I guess Mrs. Zhao has also inquired about some of my past, and I don't beat around the bush. I am now unwilling to do things for others as rumored outside. Although I am a slave now, it is the past that everyone can't move me easily, and I have the confidence to do it now."
Zhao Yunlan did not express her opinion, and Madam Cui continued, "Mrs. Wang is kind to me, so when she sent someone to spread the message that you want to see me, I responded in one go. But I told Mrs. Wang that it depends on our fate."
Zhao Yunlan then spoke, "What is the fate of Madam Cui?"
Madam Cui shook her head and smiled: "My past can be trouble at any time. Madam Zhao's family is just starting now, and it can fall down when the wind blows."
Zhao Yunlan: "I think growing up against the wind can grow stronger. In the future, I will not only not be blown down by the wind, but also block the invasion of the wind."
Madam Cui's eyes lit up: "Miss Zhao is really as Mrs. Wang said, unlike other women."
Zhao Yunlan suddenly wondered: "Why is Mrs. Wang saying that I am so extraordinary?"
"Miss Zhao, please forgive me for not letting me know." Madam Cui said.
"Then is Madam Cui willing to go to Lijia Village with me?"
"Miss Zhao, you are so persistent in inviting me to Lijia Village. Is it that I can do something for my mansion?"
Zhao Yunlan: "My husband's surname is Li, and Madam Cui also knows that we were originally from a farm family. My husband had just passed the exam for scholarship and took the first step to becoming a scholar. If the Li family can move up steadily, it is not possible to rely on my husband alone. The whole family must work hard together."
Madam Cui's eyes became more determined.
Zhao Yunlan continued: "So I want to invite Mama Cui to teach women at home. Especially with a young girl at home, she is in her prime, and her mother-in-law wants her sister to understand more things before making a marriage."
Madam Cui thought for a while and said, "Miss Zhao, it's too late, and I'm so simple here, so it's not convenient to keep Mrs Zhao."
Zhao Yunlan was not angry or procrastinated: "Then I will say goodbye first."
Zhao Yunlan took Caiyue Caixia away, and Madam Cui sat in a chair.
In fact, when Mrs. Wang sent someone to talk about Mrs. Zhao before, Mrs. Cui was moved. Mrs. Cui felt that Mrs. Zhao was a person of his own temperament. Looking at Mrs. Wang's letter, she always felt that Mrs. Zhao would not be so simple, so she kept waiting for Zhao Yunlan to come.
Today, Zhao Yunlan came to the door and saw Zhao Yunlan speaking neither humble nor arrogantly, but her words gave people the feeling of wanting to get close.
Madam Cui went to the inner room and found a box.
