Not mentioning Li Yan, Zhou Bi worked hard for a long time and took a short nap in the Yamen. When he saw the Yamen, he hurried back to his house.
In the past few days, Zhou Bi had been working day and night to deal with the drought and rarely returned home. After getting the news, Mrs. Zhou waited in front of Chuihua Gate early.
Finally he met someone, Mrs. Zhou looked at him with a smile, "Master is back!"
Mrs. Zhou was the wife who married Zhou Bi at the initiative of the old lady. Mrs. Zhou was not from a high family background, but she was gentle, virtuous, and managed the household well.
Zhou Bi treats his wife wholeheartedly.
There are no concubines in the family, and there is no mess.
The husband and wife are loving, the family is harmonious, and their little life is as sweet as honey.
After waiting for Zhou Bi to wash up, Mrs. Zhou ordered a table of delicious food to be placed in the room.
The couple had a drink after a long absence. While drinking, Mrs. Zhou accidentally mentioned, "Miss Li is here."
Normally, Mrs. Zhou would not mention it in front of Zhou Bi when Li Yan came to the house.
But today is different from the past. The little girl is now a great contributor to praying for rain.
Everyone in the county and county worshiped Li Yan like a shrine. Even the servants in the mansion were more respectful than them when they saw her.
Mrs. Zhou met Li Yan only a few times, but she had a good impression of the little girl.
I just think that the little girl is good-looking and has a sweet mouth, which pleases the old lady very much.
Before, Mrs. Zhou treated her as an ordinary junior, but as more and more things about the little girl came to her ears, Mrs. Zhou became interested in her.
Especially since the old lady called her over today and gave her some advice, she knew that she could no longer treat the little girl as an ordinary person.
When Zhou Bi heard that his little ancestor had come, his eyelids jumped and the wine he drank was no longer fragrant. He asked, "What is she here for?"
Seeing his different attitude, Mrs. Zhou was surprised for a moment, "Master, why are you doing this?"
"Girl Yan is very close to our family. Isn't it a great thing to come to our house often?"
What a great thing?
What a bad thing.
Zhou Bi's face turned dark. The little girl had just blackmailed him into two thousand taels of gold.
Madam Zhou didn't know the reason, but she still looked in high spirits, "Nowadays, no one in the county or county knows about Girl Yan's magical powers. Everyone knows that Girl Yan is a goddess who came to the world to benefit all living beings. When the old lady heard about it, she was very happy.
No, Daoyan girl is blessed with good fortune and will be of great help to the Zhou family. The old lady also specially ordered you to treat her as your own child."
Zhou Bi's reaction was the opposite of Mrs. Zhou's. He glared and said angrily, "Are you too panicked? My own child can't bear the pain. How can I have time to take care of other people's children?"
The couple has only one child, who is currently studying at Lingnan Lishan Academy.
After the week was over, I learned from my wife that the little girl had tricked the old lady into asking her to go to Dabei Temple to fulfill her vows.
Zhou Bi couldn't drink the wine anymore, so he stood up after a while.
I secretly thought to myself that Li Yan, a little ancestor, would be in a hurry if she didn't do anything for a day.
Here, he was stabilized by the sky and the sky, but behind his back, even the old lady took advantage of him.
Zhou Bi was so angry that her head ached, and he paced back and forth in the room.
Mrs. Zhou was annoyed by him, "Master, what's wrong with you?"
Why do I get so restless when I mention the little girl?
What's wrong?
He was so tortured by the little girl that he almost went crazy.
Zhou Bi held his breath in his heart and replied absently, "Don't ask, I won't be able to tell you clearly for a while."
Only he himself knows the twists and turns in between.
Li Yan didn't need to say much, given his understanding of the little girl.
She must have left the city gate and gone straight to Xingning County to seek bad luck from Taoist Master Fuyun.
Thinking of this, Zhou Bi could no longer calm down. Knowing that he was a step too late, he still called the servants in the mansion to drive after him.
Sure enough, the people sent out wrote back and said that when they went to look for her, the little girl had already left the city gate and was missing.
It's a pity that after the week ended, I didn't have any sleep that night.
I was deeply afraid that Li Yan and Taoist Master Fuyun would confront each other and make a fuss, and I was also afraid that if she couldn't come back and delay tomorrow's thank you ceremony, I was so worried all night.
Early the next morning, Mrs. Zhou returned from greeting the old lady.
Zhou Bi nearly frightened her to death when his two dark eyes dropped.
Last night, Zhou Bi was on the collapse again and again. Naturally, Mrs. Zhou couldn't sleep well. Seeing him like this again early in the morning, she thought he was worried about the little girl's safety, so she smiled and said, "Master, don't worry.
Come on, Miss Yan is back, and she is waiting in front of the old lady."
"Thank God, I finally know I'm coming back." Zhou Bi couldn't suppress his joy when he got the news.
After hurriedly washing up, I went straight to the old lady's yard.
Looking at Zhou Bi's hurried back, Mrs. Zhou couldn't laugh or cry for a moment.
It seems that Yan girl is not only very important in the heart of her mother-in-law, but also does not give in to the master.
Mrs. Zhou felt that she would have to be more cautious when dealing with little girls in the future.
Mrs. Zhou said thoughtfully to Grandma Wang who was serving her, "Look, Master, yesterday I heard that Yan Yatou borrowed a carriage to go out. He struggled all night and couldn't sleep well. In the morning, he heard that someone was coming, and he was anxious and angry.
Rush to see her."
"No matter how you look at it, he looks like an old father who is worried about his daughter coming home late. What do you think?"
The master is so duplicitous. He is so worried that he can't sleep, but he is so stubborn that he doesn't want to admit it.
Thinking of this, Mrs. Zhou couldn't help laughing.
Grandma Wang saw it in her eyes and said smoothly, "Isn't that right? The master is a very filial son, and the old lady loves Miss Li so much. The master loves Wujiwu and really treats her as his daughter. Speaking of which, Miss Li
It can also be regarded as a lucky star in our family. The master has been worried about the drought. Look at Miss Li, this lucky star has come forward, and all the difficult things in the world have been accomplished for her. This is not a lucky star from heaven. "
Aunt Wang is Mrs. Zhou's dowry nanny. She is very eloquent in front of Mrs. Zhou and understands her master's thoughts. She also sincerely admires Miss Li, so she is naturally happy to see the two sides have a good relationship.
With a smile on Mrs. Zhou's face, she said, "Yan Yatou did a great job in praying for rain, which was of great help to our master and the family. My mother-in-law has a very good eye for people. When she first met Yan Yatou, she said "Little girl"
The girl is a blessed person. It is expected that Miss Zhunyan is a noble person in our family. At this time, it seems that what my mother-in-law said was absolutely right. "
"Since Yan Yatou has been close to our family, everything in the house has been in good health, and no matter how difficult it is, it can't be easy. Now, even in the Yamen, Yan Yatou can do her best."
Mrs. Zhou lowered her eyes and thought for a moment, then told Nanny Wang, "Go to the warehouse and see if there are any brightly colored fabrics. Pick out some that the girls like and bring them over."
Grandma Wang smiled and asked, "Madam, by giving these fabrics to Miss Li, are you preparing to have a good relationship with Miss Li?"
Mrs. Zhou nodded, "It is very inconvenient for me to do things in the inner court. There are some things that only I can do."
Rumors that Li Yan was a goddess who came to the world have long been spread in He County. Mrs. Zhou wanted to keep this goddess for the Zhou family and Master, and getting close to the girl was just the first step.
"Madam is wise." Grandma Wang flattered her and happily went to choose fabrics.
As soon as Grandma Wang left, Mrs. Zhou sat in front of the dressing table, opened the dressing box, and picked up the jewelry.
