Chapter 505 Reply 1

  In the evening, after the third prince got the letter, he just nodded expressionlessly, and asked Butler Feng to prepare for the appointment the next day.

   At the same time, the eldest prince came to the door of the Yang family with eighteen betrothal gifts.

   In the blink of an eye, half a month passed, and Zhou Ying went to Zhuangzi to help basically every day.

   It wasn't until a heavy snowfall that was half a foot thick that Zhou Ying honestly stayed at home.

   Gu Chengrui was forced to stay with Zhuangzi.

   In the evening, Zhou Ying brought him some food and thick clothes and quilts through the space, and then went to the space to get busy.

   First, he glanced at each of the mother temples, and he was relieved after confirming that there was no snow disaster, and then gave the half-worn quilts collected from the Qiao family to the beggars in the north, and gave them some green onions and **** to ward off the cold.

   The next day, it was already bright when I woke up again.

   Seeing everyone sweeping the snow in the courtyard, she was not idle, she took a wooden board and stepped forward to help.

  Dianzhu hurriedly stepped forward and said: "Madam, we can do all the rough work. You should hurry into the room."

   "No, I didn't grow up pampered, and I haven't done any work.

  Let's clear the snow to the side as soon as possible, and the snow will melt and be filled with ice the next morning. "Zhou Ying said.

  Dianzhu heard what she said, and immediately thought of the scene where she followed the old peasants to the ground on the Zhuangzi covered in mud, so she could only say: "Then take it easy, don't get tired."

   After saying that, I got busy.

  Because there are few people in the prefecture and the place is big, it was almost noon when it was cleaned up.

   As soon as I finished washing, I was thinking of drinking a glass of water, when I heard Dianthus report that it was Zhou Huaiming who came and brought a lot of things.

   stunned for a moment, then got up and greeted him, "Big Brother Zhou, when did you return to Beijing?"

   "I came back yesterday afternoon. I wanted to come directly, but it snowed, so it was delayed by a day.

  By the way, in case your rations are not enough, your father-in-law asked me to bring over the food and dried vegetables you left at home, and I added some rice for you.

   There are also some things prepared by Chang Shun and the others, mainly a few live chickens and two frozen sheep. "

   "It's really hard work, Brother Zhou. Hurry up and invite him in the house." After Zhou Ying finished speaking, she led him into the house.

   said to Dianthus at the same time: "Dianzhu, go to Manager Zhou and ask him to bring the things into the warehouse.

  Sunflower for tea. "

   The two of them responded one after another and turned to go.

   Zhou Huaiming said: "I said brother and sister, you are not short of money, why didn't you buy a few more servants, there are only two maids."

   "I'm not short of money, but I'm short of food. I can't let them come over and drink the northwest wind every day."

   "That's right, in these years, money is not rich, but food and meat are rich." Zhou Huaiming said here: "By the way, when will Brother Gu come back, how about we eat mutton soup together at night?"

   "He is busy planting greenhouses on Zhuangzi, and the snowy days are slippery, so he may not be able to come back at night.

   But if you want to eat, ask Shang Rui Wang to come with me, and I will cook it for you.

   Or prepare seasonings and sliced ​​meat for you, you can also bring it to King Rui to eat. "

   "How about that? The meat is still frozen anyway, so I'm not afraid of it being bad. Let's talk about it when he comes back." Zhou Huaiming handed her a thick envelope and said, "This is the reply letter from my family to you."

   then got up and said: "I won't sit down, I will wait for Brother Gu to come back, let me know, I will come and eat you again."

   "Okay, I'll let you all know when the time comes." Zhou Ying got up and sent him out after receiving the letter.
